Ex-Prince Andrew’s relationship with his daughters, Princess Eugenie and Princess Beatrice, is understandably rocky given the recent revelations about his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. The Royal Family as a whole has excluded the former prince from their lives, with invitations no longer being made to family events like Christmas at Sandringham. King Charles is reportedly furious with his brother’s actions, but Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie’s feelings are reportedly more complex.

A source told The Mail on Sunday that Princess Eugenie has firmly cut her father out of her life, saying “there is no contact at all, nothing.” Speaking to editor Charlotte Griffiths, the source close to Princess Eugenie compared it to another massive family rift, saying “it’s Brooklyn Beckham level—she has completely cut him off.”

Princess Beatrice has not completely excluded her father—and her mother, who is also deeply involved in the conflict—from her life. The source explained that “Beatrice is trying to walk the fine line of not cutting her father off and yet remaining close with the Royal Family.” The elder York princess is giving herself space from her parents, and while she hasn’t cut them off completely, the source added “they aren't exactly in regular and close contact at the moment.”

“Eugenie isn't trying to walk that line,” the source clarified. “She's not speaking to him.”

While Princess Eugenie and Princess Beatrice may differ in opinion about the future of their relationship with their parents, ex-Prince Andrew now has his daughter’s best interests at heart. “Andrew’s main concern is that his daughters are not tainted by his difficulties, so he is keeping his distance from them,” a close friend told Richard Eden. “Both Andrew and Sarah want their daughters to remain part of the Royal Family and were happy for them to spend Christmas in Norfolk.”

Relationships and emotions following large family scandals, like the Beckhams and like royal family dramas of the past, are complex. The close family friend told Eden that both Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie “feel very sorry for their parents,” and reported that “they are keeping in touch with them and making sure they’re OK.”

Abstract

Diagnostic of transsexualism and gender incongruence are terms to describe individuals whose self-identity does not match their sex assignment at birth. A transgender woman is an individual assigned male at birth (AMAB) on the basis of the external or internal genitalia who identifies and lives as a woman. In recent decades, a significant increase in the number of transgender people has been reported. Although, its etiology is unknown, biological, anatomical, genetic, environmental and cultural factors have been suggested to contribute to gender variation. In XY animals, it has been shown that environmental endocrine disruptors, through their anti-androgenic activity, induce a female identity. In this work, we described four XY individuals who were exposed in utero to the xenoestrogen diethylstilbesterol (DES) and were part of the French HHORAGES cohort. They all reported a female transgender identity starting from childhood and adolescence. This high prevalence of male to female transgenderism (1.58%) in our cohort of 253 DES sons suggests that exposure to chemicals with xenoestrogen activity during fetal life may affect the male sex identity and behavior.

Keywords: sexual identity; diethylstilbestrol (DES); prenatal exposure

1. Introduction

Gender identity defines each individual’s deeply held personal sense of their own gender as male or female or something else [1]. Moreover, gender diversity and variance are umbrella terms used to describe the wide range of gender identifications outside the conventional gender categories [2]. Gender dysphoria [3] relates to the distress and unease experienced by individuals who are discontent with their assigned gender and identify with a gender other than the one associated with their birth sex [4]. A transgender man or woman is a person born phenotypically female or male, assigned female or male at birth on the basis of their external or internal genitalia, who identifies and lives as a male or a female. Actually, for many experts [5] this definition should be enlarged to Transgender and Gender Non-Conforming (TGNC) individuals, people with disorders of sex development (DSDs) and people assigned male (AMAB) or female at birth (AFAB) [6].

All studies on secular trends have reported a dramatic increase in the number of transgender people in recent decades [7]. A temporal change in the age of presentation is another notable phenomenon [8]. Quoting Hassler et al. [8] in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition, Text Revision (DSM-5), signs of transgender in children include: “A repeated desire to be the other sex or an assertion that they are the other sex; a belief that their assigned sex will change on its own (e.g., thinking they will grow a penis or that their penis will come off when they get older); wanting to change their name to a name typically associated with another gender, or a gender-neutral name; a preference for presenting as another gender (e.g., a child assigned male at birth who prefers long hair and wearing dresses, or a child assigned female at birth who prefers short hair and wearing gender-neutral clothing); resistance or distress when made to present as a gender they do not identify with (such as a ‘girl’ throwing a tantrum over having to wear a dress or a ‘boy’ crying after having to get a haircut); assuming the role of another gender in fantasy games or make-believe; an intense desire to participate in the games and activities typical of the other gender (such as an assigned-male child playing with Barbie and an assigned-female child playing contact sports); a preference for playmates of another gender”.

Hassler et al. also wrote [8]: “In adolescence, signs of transgender includes: feelings of panic or severe discomfort concerning puberty and body changes (e.g., refusing to acknowledge or admit that changes are occurring, refusing to look at their body, or becoming distressed or uncomfortable with body development, menstruation, or ejaculation); discomfort or distress with certain forms of gender presentation, such as disliking long hair or certain types of clothing; increased bullying at school due to differences in acting out one’s perceived gender or lack of self-confidence; isolation from peers due to lack of connection or fear of bullying; depression and/or anxiety as a result of confusion over gender identity or not fitting in with peers; be aware that some adolescents may try to repress their true gender due to outside pressure, such as from family and peers, even if they previously expressed their true gender as a child”.

The literature on the prevalence of transgender people is heterogeneous, depending on the geographic area, inclusion criteria and age at presentation [9]. Specialized centers that manage transgender people estimate a prevalence between 17 and 33/100,000 individuals [10]. Actually, people who identify as transgender represent a sizable proportion of the general population, from 0.1% to 2% [11,12].

Although the biological basis of transgenderism/incongruence is unknown, biological, anatomical, genetic and environmental factors have been suggested to contribute to gender identity [13,14]. The role of sex hormones and genetics in sexual development was described by studies published between 1948 and 2019, and the implication of endogenous steroids in brain sexual differentiation has been widely studied [14,15,16,17,18]. According to the accepted dogma, high levels of fetal testosterone organize the brain towards a male phenotype [19]. Any exogenous chemical that can reduce testosterone action during fetal life can affect the differentiation of genitalia and sex behavior.

Diethylstilbestrol (DES) is a molecule that has strengthened the concepts of endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) and the fetal basis of adult diseases [20]. It is well known that in utero exposure to DES, a compound with estrogenic and anti-androgenic activity, induces a wide range of reproductive tract/function abnormalities in the so-called ‘DES daughters’, e.g., alterations to Müllerian duct development, fertility problems, ectopic pregnancies, miscarriages, premature births and cancers, especially clear cell adenocarcinoma (CCA) of the vagina and cervix in girls and young women [21]. In ‘DES sons’, epididymal cysts, hypospadias, cryptorchidism, hypoplastic testes and micropenises have been observed [22,23,24,25,26]. In addition, although less studied, in utero exposure to synthetic sex hormones, particularly DES, can cause psychological disorders, such as schizophrenia, bipolar disorders, eating disorders and suicidal behavior [27]. Interestingly, some studies in patients exposed in utero to DES with psychotic disorders identified methylome changes that affect the expression of ZFP57 and ADAMTS9, two genes implicated in neurodevelopment regulation [28], with potential multigenerational and transgenerational effects [29,30].

In this work, we first describe four transgender women identified among the 253 sons exposed in utero to DES included in the HHORAGES-France cohort (a French National patient association). This high prevalence of male-to-female transgender individuals among DES sons (1.58%) strongly suggests that exposure of male fetuses to this xenoestrogen during fetal life may affect future male sex identity and behavior.

2. Patients and Methods

This study was based on a French national retrospective cohort of DES-treated women (HHORAGES-France Association) (n = 1200) and their families. Detailed standard questionnaires were obtained from all DES mothers when they joined the HHORAGES-France Association and all DES children were already adults at this time. The answers to this online questionnaire were used to select women who met the following inclusion criteria: (1) at least two pregnancies with two viable male babies (same father) among whom the first child was not exposed in utero to DES (pre-DES), followed by one or more children with fetal exposure to DES (DES); (2) confirmed data on the total DES dose (health record or physician’s observation). The cumulative dose D administered to the French pregnant mothers was 4050 mg < D < 7300 mg. This is considered a medium-low-dose cohort, in accordance with the observations by Tournaire et al. [31] and compared with the higher doses administered in the United States (7550 mg < D < 12,742 mg). The answers to the questionnaires were also used to identify women with a DES son who presented female gender variance. We then contacted all DES sons with female gender variance and we carried out an individual interview with them.

The local university hospital ethics committee approved this study (ID IRB No. 202301531), and all patients gave their informed consent through the HHORAGES-France Association (CNIL: J B/EM/DC042793, N° 1006460).

All DES sons who identified as transgender women underwent karyotyping at their local hospital at the moment of transition.

Thomas Trace Beatie (born 1974[1]) is an American public speaker, author, and advocate of transgender rights and sexuality issues, with a focus on transgender fertility and reproductive rights.[2]

Beatie came out as a trans man in early 1997. Beatie had gender-affirming surgery in March 2002 and became known as "the pregnant man" after he became pregnant through artificial insemination in 2007.[3] Beatie chose to be pregnant, with donated sperm,[4][5] because his wife Nancy was sterile.

The couple filed for divorce in 2012. The Beatie case is the first of its kind on record, where a documented legal male gave birth within a marriage to a woman, and for the first time, a court challenged a marriage where the husband gave birth.

Tracing boards are painted or printed illustrations depicting the various emblems and symbols of Freemasonry. They can be used as teaching aids during the lectures that follow each of the Masonic Degrees, when an experienced member explains the various concepts of Freemasonry to new members. They can also be used by experienced members as reminders of the concepts they learned as they went through the ceremonies of the different masonic degrees.[1]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tracing_board

Exoteric Masonry, which is only the husks of the Mystic Order formed by the Sons of Cain has in modern times attracted the masculine element with its positively polarized physical vehicles, and educated them in industry and statecraft, thus controlling the material development of the world. The sons of Seth, constituting themselves the Priestcraft have worked their spell over the positive vital bodies of the feminine element to dominate the spiritual development. And whereas, the sons of Cain working through Freemasonry and kindred movements, have openly fought for the temporal power, the Priestcraft has fought as strenuously and perhaps more effectively, by stealth, to retain their monopoly upon the spiritual development of the feminine element. To the casual onlooker it would seem as if there were no decided antagonism between these two movements at the present time, but though Freemasonry of today is but a shell of its true ancient mystic self, and though Catholicism has been terribly tarnished by the touch of time, in that one thing there is no difference, the war is as keen as ever, the efforts of the Church are not concentrated upon the masses however as much as upon those who are seeking to live the higher life, so that they may gain admission to the Mystery Temple and learn how to make the Philosophers’ Stone. As mankind advances in evolution, the vital body becomes more permanently positively polarized giving to both sexes a greater desire for spirituality, and though we change from the masculine to feminine in alternate embodiment, positive polarity of the vital body is becoming more pronounced regardless of sex, and this accounts for the growing tendency towards Altruism which is even being brought out by the suffering entailed by the great war we are now fighting, for all agree that they are seeking to obtain a lasting peace where the swords may be made into plowshares, and the spears into pruning hooks. In the past humanity has been claiming universal brotherhood as a great ideal, but we must come closer than that to be in full accord with the Christ. He said to his Disciples “ye are my friends.” Among brothers and sisters hate and enmity may exist, but friendship is the expression of love and cannot exist apart from that. This is therefore the magic word which will eventually level all distinctions, bring peace upon earth and goodwill among men. This is the great Ideal proclaimed by the Rosicrucian Fellowship, an Ideal which points the shortest way to the New Heaven and the New Earth, where the sons of Cain and the sons of Seth will eventually be united.

Oxford

Upon graduating from Georgetown in 1968, Clinton won a Rhodes Scholarship to University College, Oxford, where he initially read for a B.Phil. in philosophy, politics, and economics but transferred to a B.Litt. in politics and, ultimately, a B.Phil. in politics.[24] Clinton did not expect to return for the second year because of the draft and so he switched programs; this type of activity was common among other Rhodes Scholars from his cohort. He had received an offer to study at Yale Law School, and so he left early to return to the United States and did not receive a degree from Oxford.[12][25][26]

During his time at Oxford, Clinton befriended fellow American Rhodes Scholar Frank Aller. In 1969, Aller received a draft letter that mandated deployment to the Vietnam War. Aller's 1971 suicide had an influential impact on Clinton.[24][27] British writer and feminist Sara Maitland said of Clinton, "I remember Bill and Frank Aller taking me to a pub in Walton Street in the summer term of 1969 and talking to me about the Vietnam War. I knew nothing about it, and when Frank began to describe the napalming of civilians I began to cry. Bill said that feeling bad wasn't good enough. That was the first time I encountered the idea that liberal sensitivities weren't enough and you had to do something about such things".[24] Clinton was a member of the Oxford University Basketball Club and also played for Oxford University's rugby union team.[28]

While Clinton was president in 1994, he received an honorary Doctor of Civil Law degree and a fellowship from the University of Oxford, specifically for being "a doughty and tireless champion of the cause of world peace", having "a powerful collaborator in his wife", and for winning "general applause for his achievement of resolving the gridlock that prevented an agreed budget".[25][29]

Vietnam War opposition and draft controversy

During the Vietnam War, Clinton received educational draft deferments while he was in England in 1968 and 1969.[30] While at Oxford, he participated in Vietnam War protests and organized a Moratorium to End the War in Vietnam event in October 1969.[5] He was planning to attend law school in the U.S. and knew he might lose his deferment. Clinton tried unsuccessfully to obtain positions in the National Guard and the Air Force officer candidate school, and he then made arrangements to join the Reserve Officers' Training Corps (ROTC) program at the University of Arkansas.[31][32]

He subsequently decided not to join the ROTC, saying in a letter to the officer in charge of the program that he opposed the war, but did not think it was honorable to use ROTC, National Guard, or Reserve service to avoid serving in Vietnam. He further stated that because he opposed the war, he would not volunteer to serve in uniform, but would subject himself to the draft, and would serve if selected only as a way "to maintain my political viability within the system".[33] Clinton registered for the draft and received a high number (311), meaning that those whose birthdays had been drawn as numbers 1 to 310 would be drafted before him, making it unlikely he would be called up. (In fact, the highest number drafted was 195.)[34]

Colonel Eugene Holmes, the Army officer who had been involved with Clinton's ROTC application, suspected that Clinton attempted to manipulate the situation to avoid the draft and avoid serving in uniform. He issued a notarized statement during the 1992 presidential campaign:

I was informed by the draft board that it was of interest to Senator Fulbright's office that Bill Clinton, a Rhodes Scholar, should be admitted to the ROTC program ... I believe that he purposely deceived me, using the possibility of joining the ROTC as a ploy to work with the draft board to delay his induction and get a new draft classification.[35]

During the 1992 campaign, it was revealed that Clinton's uncle had attempted to secure him a position in the Navy Reserve, which would have prevented him from being deployed to Vietnam. This effort was unsuccessful and Clinton said in 1992 that he had been unaware of it until then.[36] Although legal, Clinton's actions with respect to the draft and deciding whether to serve in the military were criticized during his first presidential campaign by conservatives and some Vietnam veterans, some of whom charged that he had used Fulbright's influence to avoid military service.[37][38] Clinton's 1992 campaign manager, James Carville, successfully argued that Clinton's letter in which he declined to join the ROTC should be made public, insisting that voters, many of whom had also opposed the Vietnam War, would understand and appreciate his position.[39]

Law school

After Oxford, Clinton attended Yale Law School and earned a Juris Doctor (J.D.) degree in 1973.[12] In 1971, he met his future wife, Hillary Rodham, in the Yale Law Library; she was a class year ahead of him.[40] They began dating and were soon inseparable. After only about a month, Clinton postponed his summer plans to be a coordinator for the George McGovern campaign for the 1972 United States presidential election in order to move in with her in California.[41] The couple continued living together in New Haven when they returned to law school.[42]

Clinton eventually moved to Texas with Rodham in 1972 to take a job leading McGovern's effort there. He spent considerable time in Dallas, at the campaign's local headquarters on Lemmon Avenue, where he had an office. Clinton worked with future two-term mayor of Dallas Ron Kirk,[43] future governor of Texas Ann Richards,[44] and then unknown television director and filmmaker Steven Spielberg.[45]

We are faced with an extremely complex symbol, that of the lion. It is complex because, in view of the present bare state of the stone, we cannot be content with a single explanation. The Wise have given various titles to the lion, either to express the aspect of the substances they were processing or to emphasize a special and preponderant aspect of them. In the emblem of the Griffin (eighth motif), we saw that the lion, king of the earthly beasts, represented the fixed, basic part of a compound, which, when in contact with opposing volatility, lost the better part of itself. That is to say it lost the part which characterized its form, or, in hieroglyphic language, its head. This time we have to study the animal by itself and we do not know in what colour it was originally painted. Generally the lion is the sign of gold, both alchemical and natural. It thus represents the physico-chemical properties of these substances. But the texts give the same name to the matter which is receptive of the universal spirit, the secret fire, during processing of the solvent. In both these cases it represents power, incorruptability and perfection, these being further indicated clearly enough by the warrior with drawn sword, the mail-clad knight, displaying the king of the alchemical bestiary (pl. XV).

The first magnetic agent which is used to prepare the solventdesignated, by some, Alkahest-is called the green Lion, not so much because it is green in colour as because it has not yet acquired those mineral characteristics, which in chemistry distinguish the adult state from the nascent one. It is a green and sour fruit, compared with the red, ripe fruit. It is metallic youth on which Evolution has not yet worked, but which contains the latent germ of real energy, which will be called upon to develop later. It is arsenic and lead in respect of silver and gold. It is present imperfection from which the great future perfection will emerge; the rudiment of our embryo, the embryo of our stone, the stone of our Elixir. Certain Adepts, Basil Valentine among them, have called it green vitriol, in order to reveal its hot, burning and salty nature. Others have called it the Philosophers' Emerald, the Dew of May, the Herb of Saturn, the Vegetable Stone, etc. 'Our water takes the name of the leaves of all the trees, of the trees themselves, and of everything green in colour, in order to mislead the foolish,' says Master Arnold of Villanova.

As for the Red Lion, according to the Philosophers it is nothing more than the same matter, or'the Green Lion, brought by certain processes to this special quality which characterizes hermetic gold or the Red Lion. This has led Basil Valentine to give the following advice: 'Dissolve and nourish the real lion with the blood of the green lion, since the fixed blood of the red Lion is made from the volatile blood of the green one, which makes them both of the same nature.'

William's interview with Eugene Levy is the most open we've ever seen him

2 October 2025

Daniela Relph

Senior royal correspondent

Prince William's conversation with Eugene Levy on the actor's Apple TV show is revealing on many levels.

It has clarified his vision for his own reign once he becomes king, reinforced how stressful family life has been for him, and given us a few personal details about him we didn't know before.

Here are our main takeaways from his interview.

This was a different type of royal chat

Traditionally, interviews with the Royal Family come around rarely and when they happen they are formal.

There is usually a room in a palace, set up with cameras and lights. The interviewer will likely be an experienced presenter or journalist. There would have been weeks of briefing notes and discussions about subject areas.

It is a tried and tested formula. But it is now clear this isn't Prince William's way.

Part of his openness here comes from the setting and the context. He is at home at Windsor, he's on familiar territory, he's walking his dog, he's in the pub. William just seems more relaxed in that space, and talks more freely.

The choice of interviewer matters too. He told the actor that he was a fan of his and had loved watching the American Pie films - the coming of age movies starring Levy as a long-suffering father.

There have been some eyebrows raised about revealing so much to a Hollywood actor rather than a more forensic interviewer.

There were no questions on his relationship with his brother, Harry, nothing on his view of Prince Andrew's place in the royal family.

But even with those missing components, we still got something new and interesting.

William didn't falter when asked about his children and about what kind of king he wants to be. He would have probably been more restrained and uptight if it hadn't been Levy asking the questions.

William is set on change

It has always been clear that Prince William has his own take on his public role. "A smaller R in royal" is how he previously referred to it.

But the words "change is on my agenda" and not being "suffocated" by history make it very clear that he has a vision for monarchy that will look forward rather than back.

Those who work with the prince and his family are cautious about how those words are interpreted.

One palace staffer told me: "He's not afraid to ask questions about how and why things are done. If the answer is because that's how we've always done it then he just won't accept it."

The Duchy of Cornwall - the financial portfolio that provides an income to the heir to the throne - is cited as an example of William going in and leaving "no stone unturned" in terms of how it is run and what needs changing.

There is new leadership there, a focus on social action and a very involved prince.

One source told me that when he is king, William will be "deep in the roots of the management of Monarchy HQ".

Don't expect the big stuff to change dramatically. There will definitely be a coronation. Trooping the Colour and Remembrance Sunday will remain fixed and important parts of the royal year, and jubilees and big occasions will still be celebrated.

But William as king will have his own way of doing things.

AppleTV+/PA Prince William talking to Eugene LevyAppleTV+/PA

Prince William was asked about his children and about what kind of king he wants to be

He rides an electric scooter at the castle

The programme is filled with small details about the prince – many of which we didn't know before.

He rides an electric scooter around the grounds of Windsor Castle, but still describes himself as "a late person". A favourite drink is a pint of sweet cider.

None of his children currently have their own phone – something he said he and the princess were strict about.

He loved running down the wooden floors of Windsor Castle with his cousins when he was younger trying to avoid getting splinters.

His children now do the same but the floor has been carpeted, so is less perilous. His eldest son, Prince George, now knows more about history than his father.

And he describes his children's favourite activities – it is football and hockey for George, netball for Charlotte, while both Charlotte and Louis like trampolining.

"As far as I can tell they're jumping up and down on the trampoline and beating each other up," says their dad.

Prince Harry gets a brief mention

The prince's younger brother, Harry, gets one fleeting mention in the show. There are no direct questions about him, but William brings him up in a conversation.

"I hope we don't go back to some of the practices in the past that Harry and I grew up in. And I'll do everything I can to make sure we don't regress in that situation."

He was referring to some of the more chaotic aspects of his childhood and how difficult the press attention and intrusion had been.

The sibling relationship still remains deeply fractured following Harry's public criticism of the Royal Family. There are no signs of that changing right now.

Still, it is interesting to hear William just say his brother's name out loud in public.

The strain of Kate's illness is clear

Prince William has mentioned the strain of having both his wife and father unwell a number of times over the past year and a half.

He doesn't shy away from discussing it again here with Levy. William is asked directly about his wife being in remission, about how his children have coped.

He uses the world "overwhelmed" to describe how he has felt at times.

It is just further confirmation of how unsettling the experience has been for him and his family and it has obviously reinforced his desire to put his wife and children first.

"It's just important to be there for each other and to kind of reassure the children that everything is OK," he says.

The choice of Apple TV is important

The royal media teams are taking a much broader perspective on the type of media work they now do.

A lot of energy is spent on their Instagram posts and YouTube channels. The King is currently working on projects with both Netflix and Amazon.

Apple fits the strategy of engaging a wider number of media platforms and looking for different ways of presenting royalty globally.

It's an approach that isn't without risk for William.

We were told there were no agreed questions or approved areas of discussion and that he was opening up parts of Windsor Castle to the actor and film crew.

But the project has worked for both Apple and Kensington Palace. Apple has a programme making headlines and Kensington Palace feels William has emerged as "a human and easy to relate to guy", according to sources.

This was an unusual place for such an interview

Sometimes royal revelations are found in unexpected places – a prince opening up to one of his favourite actors from his teenage years was a bit of surprise.

But it has shown an heir to the throne managing the stresses of family with his future on his mind.

A royal source summed it up.

"For all too long, we've seen the royals as perfect," they told me. "Here we see William as a human being, in a pub, with a pint, chatting.

"It's the most open we've ever seen him."

Drusilla was a vampire who possessed psychic powers as a human.[1] She was tortured to insanity and sired by Angelus,[2] who had murdered her entire family before her eyes in order to turn her into his "masterpiece."[3] Drusilla later sired the young London poet William Pratt, who took the name Spike and became her long-time paramour.[4]

https://buffy.fandom.com/wiki/Drusilla

The names Drew and Dru are often associated with each other, with Dru being a diminutive of Andrew.

Drew is primarily considered a boy's name, often used as a nickname for Andrew.

Dru can also be a nickname for Drusilla, which is derived from Andrew.

The name Dru has roots in Welsh and is associated with meanings like 'manly' or 'brave'.

While Dru is less common than Drew, it can be used affectionately as a nickname for someone named Andrew.

In summary, Drew is typically a boy's name, while Dru can be a nickname for Andrew or derived from Drusilla.

I sent Dr SUSAN Loring whom has the same name as my mother SUSAN Dunn dates of January 7-10 2026 and I have RECEIPT of that transaction and even sent it to you and I never heard back from them until January 20 2026 and I have a court date on the 26th and I told Brock on the January 5 2026 I am seeking another lawyer he is no longer my lawyer and this was told to Judge John I am not available until after the 26th, you are out to get me arrested and I no longer wish to have you as my counsel, please do not respond back to me, you are intimidating and I haven't seen the new charges from you before meeting with this doctor

Judge Vecchiarelli recused out of bias forwarded to Judge Lori ANN Matheus whom has the same middle name as Julia ANN Byse, how is that not bias?

If the court insists, then refer me to another doctor with a different name and I do not want you to represent me anymore, because you want me arrested on Monday January 26 2026 at Third District Court, God Bless you.

This venomous snake named Kale Brock whom is a very uncool attorney never told me that a Class C felony is 1-5 years and that is Kale's plan for me, Kale Brock wants me sentenced for the rest of my life in Lovelock State Prison because he doesn't like what I have to say about the Pope and has been scouting people before they are his clients and is involved in framing evidence through third parties because of surveillance network Kale Brock is involved with; when it is the state of nevada vs william dunn and Kale is a public defender than kale is defending the public which is supposed to be the state of nevada against me and is actually assisting the District Attorney Stephen B. Rye and is entrapping and Kale Brock are conspiring to have my mother Susan Dunn harmed too to get property redistributed the people across the street want my mother harmed and Kale Brock conspiring with the plaintiff that has a TPO violation on me Julia ANN Byse and Judge Lori ANN Matheus have the same middle names. Why don't Kale Brock refer me to another doctor which doctor is named Kale Brock's mother, how would Kale's deadly sarcasm like that? The Bar Association apparently has been involved in this and has told lawyers not to pick up my case and the Bar Association needs to repent and tell Brock to stop secretly colluding with the District Attorney persecuting clients to prison.

Dr ROBERT Wildman and Susan Loring, Kale Brock Law LTD referring me to Doctor ROBERT Wildman has been conspiring with 2030 Lonnie Lane Dayton Nevada, Julia ANN Byse that filed the restraining order on me and called the Lyon County Sheriff Department August 5th 2025 for TPO violation and I now have a Class C felony charge, Julia ANN Byse has a son named ROBERT Grove and Judge Lori ANN Matheus whom was presiding has the same middle name as Julia ANN Byse.

Kale Brock is a papist undermining law as a public defender colluding with Stephen B. Rye and the current Pope legal name in America is Robert FRANCIS Prevost which Francis is my middle name, Pope Leo XIV persecuting Americans in Fernley Nevada Courts through Kale Brock!

IN THE JUSTICE COURT OF THE DAYTON TOWNSJUSTICE PRACE

COUNTY OF LYON, STATE OF NEVADA

JULIA ANN Byse Applicant (print your name above),

VS.

WILLIAM F DUNN IV

ROBERT Grove son of Julia Ann Byse, all these charges from Fernley Courts is a papal conspiracy from Pope Leo XIV ROBERT Prevost and Cardinal Louis Sako through Judge Lori ANN Matheus to falsely charge William Francis Dunn IV because of entrapping and surveillance framing with more felonies on January 5 2026 at Third District Court in Yerington Nevada and the Sheriff of Lyon County Nevada is Brad POPE.

Pope Leo XIV[a] (born ROBERT Francis Prevost,[b][c] September 14, 1955) is the head of the Catholic Church and sovereign of Vatican City. He is the first Pope to have been born in the United States, the first to hold either U.S. or Peruvian citizenships, the first from the Order of Saint Augustine, and the second (after his immediate predecessor Pope Francis) from the Americas.

Prevost was born in Chicago and raised in the nearby suburb of Dolton, Illinois. He became a friar in the Order of Saint Augustine in 1977 and was ordained as a priest in 1982. He earned a Doctor of Canon Law (JCD) degree in 1987 from the Pontifical University of Saint Thomas Aquinas in Rome. His service includes extensive missionary work in Peru in the 1980s and 1990s, during which he worked as a parish pastor, diocesan official, seminary teacher, and administrator. Elected prior general of the Order of Saint Augustine, he was based in Rome from 2001 to 2013, and traveled extensively as part of this work, including to the order's many provinces and missions around the world. He then returned to Peru as Bishop of Chiclayo from 2015 to 2023. In 2023, Pope Francis appointed him prefect of the Dicastery for Bishops in Rome, and president of the Pontifical Commission for Latin America. Upon his return to Rome in 2023, Prevost was made a cardinal by Pope Francis.

As Cardinal, Prevost emphasized synodality, missionary dialogue, and engagement with social and technological challenges. He has also addressed issues such as climate change, global migration, church governance, and human rights, and expressed alignment with the reforms of the Second Vatican Council and the direction set for the Church by Francis.

Prevost's election in the 2025 conclave was unexpected by observers; he was a dark horse candidate, with Vatican insiders believing the prospect of a Pope from the United States to be unrealistic given its status as a superpower.[8][9] In honor of Pope Leo XIII, who developed modern Catholic social teaching amid the tumult of the Second Industrial Revolution, Prevost chose the papal name Leo XIV—both to echo Leo XIII's concern for workers and fairness, and as a response to the challenges of a new industrial revolution and artificial intelligence.[10]

Analyzation skills is required in Math and reading is no different when you read combined like this, the sum total of this information combination is the Vatican, Pope Leo XIV and Cardinal Louis Sako has been in talks with Kim Jong Un and have North Korea under their control and has the BAR Association under Papal control in America.

AI Overview

A court-hired attorney conflict of interest happens when their duty to a client clashes with other loyalties, like representing opposing parties in the same case (common in public defender offices), having personal financial ties, or prior representation of an adversary, creating divided loyalty that compromises fair representation, often requiring the lawyer to withdraw or get written consent from all parties. These conflicts can involve joint defense() issues, prior confidential information, or even the lawyer's own interests, all violating ethical rules (like ABA Model Rule 1.7) to ensure zealous advocacy.

The word asas in Arabic means "PRINCIPLE". The Asāsiyyūn (plural, from literary Arabic) were, as defined in Arabic, the principle people. The term "assassin" likely has roots in hashshāshīn ("hashish smokers or users"), a mispronunciation of the original Asāsiyyūn, but not a mispronunciation of Assasiyeen (pronounced "Asāsiyyeen", the plural of "Asasi"). Originally referring to the methods of political control exercised by the Assasiyuun, one can see how it became "assassin" in several languages to describe similar activities anywhere.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order_of_Assassins

PRINCIPLE AND FOUNDATION

Man is created to praise, reverence, and serve God our Lord, and by this means to save his soul. And the other things on the face of the earth are created for man and that they may help him in prosecuting the end for which he is created.

The name Chaldaea is a latinization of the Greek Khaldaía (Χαλδαία), a hellenization of Akkadian māt Kaldu or Kašdu, suggesting an underlying /kaɬdu/.[4] The term Chaldea appears in Hebrew in the Bible as Kaśdim (כַּשְׂדִּים),[5] while Chaldeans are Hebrew Kaśdim (כַּשְׂדִּים) and Aramaic Kaśdā'in (כַּשְׂדָּאִין).[6][7][8]

Genesis 22:22 lists Kesed (כֶּשֶׂד, reconstructed /kaɬd/[9]), perhaps a singular form of Kasdim, as son of Abraham's brother Nahor (and brother of Kemuel the father of Aram), residing in Aram Naharaim. Jubilees 11:7 claims that "Ur son of Kesed built the city of Ur-Kasdim, and he named it after himself and his father".

Jewish historian Flavius Josephus (37–c. 100) links Arpachshad and Chaldaea in his Antiquities of the Jews: "Arphaxad named the Arphaxadites, who are now called Chaldeans."[10] Umberto Cassuto suggests that the name "Arpachshad" (ארפכשד) may be compounded from Arapcha-Kesed.[11]

The Brookings Institution, often stylized as Brookings,[2] is an American think tank in Washington, D.C.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brookings_Institution

Trustee Brookings Institution from 1922 on, until at least 1929.

Founding or very early director of the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) from at least 1922, together with the Morgan and Rockefeller interests.

The Warburg-Schiff connection to the Bolsheviks also extended from Germany to the United States. When Lenin's Bolshevik ally Leon Trotsky arrived in New York City in January 1917, a certain Arthur Concors, the superintendent and director of the Hebrew Sheltering and Immigrant Aid Society (HIAS), waited for him on the pier. As Trotsky spoke no English, Concors did the talking for him, promoting him to the New York Times and New York Herald Tribune as a persecuted "peace advocate", who, during these World War I years had been booted out of Czarist Russia, France and Spain for being "a follower of Karl Marx" and for making the case that Russia should withdraw from World War I, which was fighting on the side of Great Britain, France and Italy. Earlier, at the start of the war, Trotsky also had been booted out of the Kaiser's Germany for being a Marxist journalist.

The Union Générale.

Meanwhile the Nationalist and Reactionary parties in France desired to counterbalance the "Semitic" influence of the Rothschilds by establishing a banking concern which should be essentially Catholic. Accordingly in 1876 the Union Générale was founded with a capital of 4,000,000 francs, increased to 25,000, 000 fraces in 1878 under the direction of a certain Bontoux. After various vicissitudes, graphically described by Zola in his novel "L'Argent," the Union failed, and brought many of the Catholic nobility of France to ruin, leaving the Rothschilds still more absolutely the undisputed leaders of French finance, but leaving also a legacy of hatred which had much influence on the growth of the anti-Semitic movement in France. Something analogous occurred in England when the century-long competition of the Barings and the Rothschilds culminated in the failure of the former in 1893; but in this case the Rothschilds came to the rescue of their rivals and prevented a universal financial catastrophe. It is a somewhat curious sequel to the attempt to set up a Catholic competitor to the Roths-childs that at the present time the latter are the guardians of the papal treasure.

Of recent years the Rothschilds have consistently refused to have anything to do with loans to Russia, owing to the anti-Jewish legislation of that empire, though on one occasion the members of the Paris house joined in a loan to demonstrate their patriotism as Frenchmen."

The Syrian WILD ass (Equus hemionus hemippus), less commonly known as a hemippe,[2] an achdari,[3][4] or a Mesopotamian or Syrian onager,[5] is an extinct subspecies of onager native to the Arabian Peninsula and surrounding areas. It ranged across present-day Iraq, Palestine, Israel, Iran, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, Syria, and Turkey.

It is believed this may be the "wild ass" that Ishmael was prophesied to be in Genesis in the Old Testament. References to this wild ass also appear in the Old Testament books of Job, Psalms, Jeremiah, and the Deuterocanonical Book of Sirach.[6]

The term "wildman" has its origins in Anglo-Saxon and Middle English, derived from the words "wyld" (wild) and "man." Historically, it referred to individuals living on the fringes of society or those who displayed a wild or unkempt appearance. The surname likely emerged in the 14th or 15th century as a descriptive name for someone associated with wilderness or the "wild man" motif in European folklore, symbolizing raw nature and outsiderhood.

Irish bards praise the martial prowess and commanding stature of the Dunn warriors. They were undoubtedly conspicuous in history for their doughty resistance to the encroachment of Anglo-Norman invaders who held lands in the pale boarding their territory. The Dunns were in the forefront of every battle for Irish nationalism. They suffered heavily in the bitter and prolonged struggle against Cromwell. In the next generation, they espoused the Stuart cause, and the head of the family was killed in the Battle of Aughrim. With the fall of the Stuarts, the lands of the Dunns were confiscated, and their fighting men who survived followed Sarsfield and the "WILD geese" to fight in the ranks of the Irish Brigade in France.

The Art of War is an ancient Chinese military treatise dating from the late Spring and Autumn period (roughly 5th century BC). The work, which is attributed to the ancient Chinese military strategist Sun Tzu ("Master Sun"), is composed of 13 chapters. Each one is devoted to a different set of skills or art related to warfare and how it applies to military strategy and tactics. For almost 1,500 years, it was the lead text in an anthology that was formalized as the Seven Military Classics by Emperor Shenzong of Song in 1080. The Art of War remains one of the most influential works on strategy of all time[1] and has shaped both East Asian and Western military theory and thinking.[2]

The text was first translated into a European language in 1772, when the French Jesuit priest Jean Joseph Marie Amiot produced a French version. The first annotated English translation was published in 1910 by the British scholar Lionel Giles.[3] Military and political leaders such as the Chinese communist revolutionary Mao Zedong, Japanese daimyō Takeda Shingen, Vietnamese general Võ Nguyên Giáp, and American generals Douglas MacArthur and Norman Schwarzkopf Jr. are all cited as having drawn inspiration from the book.[4]

Shem (/ʃɛm/; Hebrew: שֵׁם Šēm; Arabic: سَام, romanized: Sām)[a] is one of the sons of Noah in the Bible (Genesis 5–11[1] and 1 Chronicles 1:4).

The children of Shem are Elam, Ashur, Arphaxad, Lud and Aram, in addition to unnamed daughters. Abraham, the patriarch of Jews, Christians, and Muslims, is one of the descendants of Arphaxad.

In medieval and early modern European tradition he was considered to be the ancestor of the peoples of Asia,[2][3][4] and he gives his name to the title "Semites" formerly given to West Asian peoples.[5]

Islamic literature describes Shem as one of the believing sons of Noah. Some sources even identify Shem as a prophet in his own right and that he was the next prophet after his father.[6]

Biography

Early life

Sako was born in the city of Zakho, Iraq, on 4 July 1948.[2] He comes from an ethnic Assyrian family of the Chaldean Catholic Church that has roots in a religious community that has had a presence in the city of his birth since the 5th century AD.[3]

He completed his early studies in Mosul and then attended the Dominican-run Saint JEAN's Seminary there. He was ordained a priest on 1 June 1974 and filled his first pastoral assignment at the Cathedral of Mosul until 1979. He then earned a doctorate in Eastern patrology at the Pontifical Oriental Institute. When denied a license to teach because he was only qualified for religious instruction, he earned a second doctorate in history from the Sorbonne in Paris.[4] With this he secured his teaching license and was able to provide religious instruction. From 1997 to 2002 he was rector of the Patriarchal Seminary in Baghdad. He then returned to Mosul and guided the parish of Perpetual Help for a year.[5][6]

Sako speaks Neo-Aramaic, German, French, English, Italian, Kurdish and Arabic.[2]

The sabbath is observed weekly by the Samaritan community every week from Friday to Saturday beginning and ending at sundown. For 24 hours, the families gather together to celebrate the rest day: all electricity with the exception of minimal lighting (kept on the entire day) in the house is disconnected, no work is done, and neither cooking nor driving is allowed. The time is devoted to worship which consists of seven prayer services (divided into two for sabbath eve, two in the morning, two in afternoon and one at eve of conclusion), reading the weekly Torah portion (according to the Samaritan yearly Torah cycle), spending quality time with family, taking meals, rest and sleep, and visiting other members of the community.[29]

After a declaration of the type, in the rest of this chap., in the type are described two things, the beast (of whom chap. 13), in verse 3, and the woman that sitteth upon the beast, verses 4, 5, 6. The beast in process of time hath gotten somewhat more than was expressed in the former vision. First in that it is not read before that he was appareled in scarlet, a robe imperial and of triumph. Secondly, in that this is full of names of blasphemy: the other carried the name of blasphemy only in his head. So God did teach that this beast is much increased in impiety and injustice and doth in this last age, triumph in both these more insolently and proudly than ever before.

The penny has officially been retired, with the U.S. Mint striking its last coin on November 12, 2025, due to rising production costs and declining usage.

Reasons for Retirement

Cost of Production: It now costs approximately 3.69 cents to produce a single penny, which is more than its face value of one cent. This has led to significant financial losses for the U.S. Mint, amounting to about $85 million in losses from penny production in 2024 alone.

Economic Efficiency: The decision to discontinue the penny was influenced by President Donald Trump's directive, which emphasized the need to eliminate wasteful spending in the federal budget. The production of pennies was deemed fiscally irresponsible as it costs more to mint than the coin is worth.

Declining Usage: The trend towards cashless transactions has been increasing, with only 16% of payments made in cash in 2023. This shift has contributed to the declining relevance of the penny in everyday transactions.

4 Sources

Implications for Consumers

Legal Tender: Although the U.S. Mint will no longer produce new pennies, existing pennies remain legal tender. There are approximately 300 billion pennies still in circulation, and consumers can continue to use them for transactions.

Future of Cash Transactions: There are discussions about potential changes to cash transactions, such as rounding all cash payments to the nearest five cents, which could further diminish the role of pennies in everyday commerce.

The retirement of the penny marks the end of an era for American currency, reflecting broader economic trends and changing consumer behaviors. While pennies will still be usable for now, their future in the economy is uncertain as cash transactions continue to decline.

Arturo Marcelino Sosa Abascal SJ (born 12 November 1948) is a Venezuelan Catholic priest who has served as the 31st superior general of the Society of Jesus since 2016. He was elected by the Society's 36th General Congregation to succeed Adolfo Nicolás. He is the first person born in Latin America to lead the Jesuits.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arturo_Sosa

AI Overview

As of September 2025, there has been no 37th General Congregation of the Society of Jesus. The most recent assembly was the 36th General Congregation (GC 36), which met in Rome in October 2016.

What is a General Congregation?

A General Congregation (GC) is the highest governing body of the Society of Jesus, a Catholic religious order. A GC can be called for two main reasons:

To elect a new Superior General: This happens when the previous Superior General resigns or dies. In 2016, GC 36 was called after Father Adolfo Nicolás announced his resignation.

To address important matters: A GC can be called by the Superior General to discuss and act on significant issues concerning the order, the Church, and the world.

Key outcomes of the 36th General Congregation (GC 36)

The last General Congregation made two major decisions for the Society of Jesus:

Election of a new Superior General: The delegates elected Father Arturo Sosa Abascal of Venezuela as the 31st Superior General.

Declaration on reconciliation and justice: The assembly released a decree titled "Companions in a Mission of Reconciliation and Justice," which recommitted the order to the service of faith and the promotion of justice, continuing a priority first established at the 32nd General Congregation.

papacy, the office and jurisdiction of the pope (Latin papa, from Greek pappas, “father”), who presides over the Holy See (the central government) of the Roman Catholic Church, the largest of the three major branches of Christianity. The term pope was originally applied to all the bishops in the Western church. In 1073, however, Pope Gregory VII restricted its use to the bishop of Rome, confirming a practice that had existed since the 9th century. The term is also used to describe the patriarch of Alexandria (now leader of the Coptic Orthodox Church), who still retains the title.

Revelation 17

1599 Geneva Bible

17 1 That great whore is described, 2 with whom the Kings of the earth committed fornication. 6 She is drunken with the blood of Saints. 7 The mystery of the woman, and the beast that carried her, expounded. 11 Their destruction. 14 The Lamb’s victory.

1 Then [a]there came one of the seven Angels, which had the seven vials, and talked with me, saying unto me, Come: I will show [b]thee the [c]damnation of the great whore that sitteth upon many waters,

2 With whom have committed fornication the kings of the earth, and the inhabitants of the earth are drunken with the wine of her fornication.

3 [d]So he carried me away into the wilderness in the Spirit, and I saw a woman sit upon a [e]scarlet colored beast, full of names of blasphemy, which had seven heads, and ten horns.

4 And [f]the woman was arrayed [g]in purple and scarlet, and gilded with gold, and precious stones, and pearls, [h]and had a cup of gold in her hand full of abomination, and filthiness of her fornication.

5 [i]And in her forehead was a name written, A mystery, [j]that great Babylon that mother of whoredoms, and abominations of the earth.

6 [k]And I saw the woman drunken with the blood of Saints, and with the blood of the Martyrs of JESUS: and when I saw her, [l]I wondered with great marvel.

7 [m]Then the Angel said unto me, Wherefore marvelest thou? I will show thee the mystery of that woman, and of that beast that beareth her, which hath seven heads and ten horns.

8 [n]The beast that thou hast seen, [o]was and is not, and [p]shall ascend out of the bottomless pit, and shall go into perdition, and they that dwell on the earth, shall wonder (whose names are not written in the book of life from the foundation of the world) [q]when they behold the beast that was, and is not, and yet is.

9 [r]Here is the mind that hath wisdom, The [s]seven heads [t]are seven mountains, whereon the woman sitteth: [u]they are also seven Kings.

10 [v]Five are fallen, [w]and one is, [x]and another is not yet come: and when he cometh, he must continue a short space.

11 [y]And the beast that was, and is not, is even [z]the eighth, and is [aa]one of the seven, and [ab]all go into destruction.

12 [ac]And the ten horns which thou sawest, are [ad]ten kings, which yet have not received a kingdom, but shall receive power, as Kings [ae]at one hour with the beast.

13 [af]These have one mind, and shall give their power and authority unto the beast.

14 These shall fight with the [ag]Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them: for he is Lord of Lords, and King of Kings: and they that are on his side, called, and chosen, and faithful.

15 [ah]And he said unto me, The waters which thou sawest, where the whore sitteth, [ai]are people, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues.

16 And the ten [aj]horns which thou sawest upon the beast, are they that shall hate the whore, and shall make her desolate, and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her with fire.

17 [ak]For God hath put in their hearts to fulfill his will, and to do with one consent for to give their kingdom unto the beast, until the words of God be fulfilled.

18 And that woman which thou sawest, is that [al]great city which reigned over the kings of the earth.

Jesus: The Guarantee of a Better Covenant

Hebrews 7:20–28

Code: 1618

Tonight we’re going to study the Word of God in Hebrews chapter 7, and we’re going to look at verses 20 to 28 in concluding our study of Jesus and Melchizedek. Now, as we come to chapter 7, verses 20 through 28, concluding this chapter, the writer of Hebrews, whom we have assumed to be the Holy Spirit since we do not the human author and we know the Holy Spirit penned it, the Holy Spirit is still piling up proofs in these closing verses that the priesthood of Jesus Christ is superior to that of Aaron.

The Jews, as you know, had put all of their stock in the Levitical priesthood, the priesthood that came through the line of Aaron and the tribe of Levi. And Jesus came as a priest of another order, the priesthood of Melchizedek, a man who predated Aaron, who was at the time of Abraham.

Jesus, as a priest after the order of Melchizedek, is therefore a superior priest to all the priests of Aaron. And the point is simply to prove that Jesus is superior to everything in the old covenant; therefore, the new covenant is better than the old; therefore the Jews ought to come to Christ and drop all of their Old Testament hold on – Old Testament attachments that they’re holding onto. He is writing to Hebrews and saying, “Come to Christ.” He is writing to Hebrew believers and saying, “Drop all the Jewish trappings. Jesus is sufficient; He is superior.”

And so, part of the superiority of Christ is His superior priesthood. He is after the order of Melchizedek. The Judaistic priests are after the order of Levi. And Melchizedek’s is a superior order.

Now, He has taken one text that He has used through this whole discussion, which really began clear back in the end of chapter 4. His text is Psalm 110:4, and He milks that text for every possible, conceivable particle of truth. The text of Psalm 110:4 says that, “The Lord hath sworn, and will not repent, Thou art a priest forever after the order of Melchizedek.” It was a messianic prophecy predicting that when Messiah came, He would be a priest, for man needs a priest who bridges the gap between himself and God, but that He would not be a priest after the Aaronic line but after the order of Melchizedek. Four times through what we’ve studied, that statement is repeated. Four times He restates His text. And the Holy Spirit is showing us that Jesus is a priest like Melchizedek, far superior to those Levites and those of Aaron’s train.

Now, his process is to establish the priesthood of Melchizedek, first of all, and then show how it was better than Aaron, and then show how Jesus is like Melchizedek. Thus the new covenant is better than the old, for it has a better priest. Now, this has been what He’s doing all through chapter 7; so, I’m not going to go into it. But the Spirit, now, through chapter 7, has been presenting Christ as the priest like Melchizedek. We saw that Aaron’s priesthood was limited because it couldn’t provide one thing that was primary; it couldn’t provide perfection. And another term for perfection is what? Access to God. Aaron’s priesthood could not bring men to God. All through the ministry of Aaron and the Levites, the veil remained. Right? There never was access to God. The one thing men needed most couldn’t be provided by Aaron. Therefore, there had to come another priest who could bring access to God, a priest after a different order, and that is Jesus Christ. And David, in Psalm 110:4, when he made the statement concerning Messiah, “Thou art a priest forever after the of Melchizedek,” was prophesying that when Messiah did come, He indeed would be a priest after a different order.”

And so, Christ has come and provided the access that Aaron couldn’t provide. Compare verse 11 for a moment to verse 19. Verse 11, “IF therefore perfection were by the Levitical priesthood” – skip the parenthesis – “what further need was there that another priest should rise after the order of Melchizedek?”

The point was that Aaron’s priesthood couldn’t bring perfection. If it could have, you wouldn’t need another priest after a different order. But in verse 19 it says, starting out with the word “but” and changing it to “and,” “And the bring in of a better hope, by which we draw near to God.”

In other words, He is talking there about Christ being the one who brings us to God – access to God. Aaron couldn’t do it; Christ could. That’s the difference. So, Melchizedek’s priesthood, the order of which Jesus is a priest, is superior. It’s superior because of its character – and we went into all of that back at the beginning of chapter 7 – because of its basic nature. It’s superior in the fact that Abraham paid tithes to Melchizedek, and all the priesthood of Aaron was in the loins of Abraham. So, in a sense, Aaron was giving homage to Melchizedek. It’s superior because it could provide the access that Aaron’s priesthood could not provide.

So, then the Holy Spirit is saying, “The old covenant is set aside.” It couldn’t hack it; it couldn’t make it; it couldn’t provide. The new covenant replaces it; it’s a change. It’s not just added to the old covenant. The old covenant is done away; the new covenant supplants it.

But the writer is not yet finished with His sermon about Jesus and Melchizedek. As much as He has covered, it almost boggles our mind to conceive of, He has yet more to come in verses 20 to 28. And here the Holy Spirit presents Jesus as a superior priest three ways. Three ways: the surety of a better covenant, Savior to the uttermost, and separate from sinners. Surety of a better covenant, Savior to the uttermost, and separate from sinners. And you’ll see those all through the passage. The end of verse 22, “surety of a better testament” or covenant; verse 25, “able to save to the uttermost – Savior to the uttermost; verse 26, “separate from sinners.” Those are the three key statements by which He draws to a conclusion the priesthood of Jesus Christ.

Now, in our last message, we saw the key phrase “draw nigh unto God” in verse 19. The goal of our faith is access to God. The goal of Christianity is to bring men into the presence of God: that Jesus Christ could do; Aaron could not. The veil always remained. But in Christ, the fail was – what? – was rent and access was made. And in verse 19 of chapter 6, we go into the presence of God where our forerunner has entered, verse 20, and we are anchored there. That’s something Aaron couldn’t do.

So, access to God looks, from our viewpoint, at the object of our – really the goal of our faith or the object of our trust. The design for us is that we have access to God.

Now, from God’s standpoint, the phrase “saved to the uttermost” in verse 25 describes it. That’s like the other side of the coin. We, from our standpoint, are able to have access to God. From His standpoint, He is able to save us to the uttermost. Two sides of the same truth. Jesus gives access to God from our viewpoint, and saves us to the uttermost from His viewpoint.

Now, let’s look at the three superiorities. First of all, Jesus is presented as the surety of a better covenant in verses 20 to 22. Let’s look at verse 20, and follow very carefully so that you’ll understand, “And inasmuch as not without an oath He was made priest: (For those priests were made without an oath; but this with an oath by Him that said unto Him, “The Lord swore and will not repent, Thou art a particular forever after the order of Melchizedek) by so much was Jesus made a surety of a better testament.”

Now, let me drop 21 out, because it’s a parenthesis and read 20 and 22. “And inasmuch as not without an oath He was made priest: by so much was Jesus made a surety of a better testament.” In other words, He was a surety of a better testament because He was made a priest with an oath. And He says it in a negative way, “not without an oath.” That’s a double negative. The positive would be, “God made Him a priest by an oath.”

And you say, “Well, this – well, so what?”

Well, I’ll get to that. That’s what I said when I first read it, “What’s He saying?” Well, He’s saying this, “There’s something very important about God making an oath.” What was God’s oath in verse 21? “For those priests were made without an oath.” In other words, God never said what He said about Christ, “But with this one, the Lord” – what’s the next word? – “swore and will not repent, ‘Thou art a priest’ – what’s the next word? – ‘forever.’” Now, He never said that to Aaron. God never swore an oath to Aaron that his priesthood would be forever. Do you see? That’s what He’s saying.

Because of that, that is not as significant as Christ’s priesthood because when God established Christ as a priest, He swore with an oath that it would be forever. Therefore, His is a better testament. Do you see? Aaron’s was always temporary. It was designed to be temporary. God never swore that it would be eternal. But with Christ, He swore an eternal priesthood. When the Levitical priests were inducted into office, God took no oath. That’s the point. God swore not. But when Jesus Christ was presented as Priest, God swore and will not repent.

In other words, God bound His word by an oath. Now, that doesn’t mean that unless God swears and makes an oath, His word is no good. It simply means that wherever God makes an oath, His word has to do with an eternal transaction. Now, that’s important.

The Old Testament priests had a transitory office, and office of imperfection and an office of decay. They ministered in the temple on a temporary basis. They kept dying off, and their sons kept replacing them. They were sinful and had to always be offering sacrifices for themselves so forth and so on. They never could bring access; they never could bring perfection. And perfection, in the book of Hebrews, has to do with really salvation. They couldn’t bring it about. They could only cover sins, not do away with them. And so, the priests couldn’t really do it. Therefore, God never designed them to be an eternal priesthood.

And here the writer is saying to the Jews, “Your own Old Testament says God had ordained an eternal priesthood of a different kind.” The Old Testament priesthood was based upon God’s word, an expression of His sovereign power. But it never had an eternal quality by God’s oath that it be forever.

Now, when God gives His oath, that means that it is a guaranteed thing. Permanently. Go back, for example, to Hebrews chapter 6, and there’s a great illustration of this. Now, “God” – in verse 13 – “made a promise to Abraham, because He could swear by no greater, He swore by Himself.” And the Old Testament saints used to swear by God, “As the Lord liveth, so will I do this.” But if – you always swear by the greater, but who’s greater than God? So, He has to swear by Himself.

“When God made a promise to Abraham, because He could swear by no greater, He swore by Himself. And He said, ‘Surely blessing I will bless thee, and multiplying I will multiply thee’” Now, when God said that to Israel, that was an eternal covenant. God would never go back on that. He bound Himself with an oath.

“And so, after he had patiently endured he obtained the promises.” That is Abraham did. He endured till he was very old, and finally he got the son that was the beginning of the promise. “For men verily swear by the greater, and an oath for confirmation is to them an end of all strife.”

In other words, when a man sets his seal of an oath, when he convinces you by swearing that he is meaning the truth, that kind of doubly makes it real. Verse 17, “Wherein God, willing more abundantly to show unto the heirs of promise the immutability or the unchanging character of His counsel, confirmed it by an oath.”

Now, God wanted Abraham to know that this was a promised eternal kind of covenant, “I will bless you; I will multiply you.” And He went on even to say He would bless those that blessed him and curse those that cursed him. And through Abraham, the families of the earth would be blessed. And it was through Abraham Messiah came. And the eternal blessing that comes upon every man throughout all of eternity is a fulfillment of the Abrahamic covenant. And so, when God made an eternal covenant, He bound Himself with an oath. That’s how you can tell the eternal character of the covenant. Jesus’ priesthood is just that eternal. It is based on an oath, the priesthood of Melchizedek, but the priesthood of Aaron is not.

Now, the very idea that God would take an oath is a startling thing in a sense. The only reason for God to take an oath is because – not because His word’s no good, but because there is a unique and extraordinary importance attached to those places where God does this. And mark this thought: they are always connected with Christ. Whenever God takes an oath in relation to a promise, it is always connected with Christ who is the eternal fulfillment of all of His promises. So, whenever God makes a promise that relates to Christ, He can add an oath to it, giving it eternal character.

Another illustration would be the promise to David that Christ would sit on the throne and reign as King of Kings and so forth and so on. That also was given with an oath because that is an eternal promise: Christ is an eternal king. So, the promise of God that is attached to the eternal fulfillment of Christ is given with an oath. Therefore, when God gave this indication that there would come a Messiah who would be after the order of Melchizedek, He swore by it because His priesthood was to be – how long? – forever or eternal.

So Jesus is a permanent priest, sworn by God to be forever. Because of this, verse 22 is true, “By so much,” or, “Because of that fact, Jesus is made a surety of a better covenant.” The covenant that God made with Jesus is better than the old one because the old one is temporary and the new one is – what? – eternal. It’s just that much better. Just that much better. A better priest bring a better covenant.

So, Christ, then, is the guarantee. The word “surety” means guarantee, and we’ll talk about it, but Christ is the guarantee of a better covenant because He’s a better priest. He’s an eternal priest with an eternal covenant. Aaron’s thing was temporary. Now, notice this, the covenant is between God and man, and Christ is the guarantee of it. The Greek word means just that, a person who guarantees. Christ is the guarantee of a better covenant from God with man, one that can do everything the first covenant couldn’t do.

The first covenant couldn’t save to the uttermost, could it? It could only cover sin. The first covenant couldn’t give access to God; it only gave a temporary kind of relationship. But Jesus can do what the first could not.

Now, I want you to notice this; He is not saying that the first covenant was bad. The word “better” is a comparative. Right? All of you English teachers know that. The word “better” is a comparative of what other word? Bad? Bad, better best? What? Good, better best. The old covenant was very good; it just wasn’t better. It was very good.

In some respects, the old covenant was indeed good. It was good in itself as the product of God’s wisdom, as the product of God’s righteousness. It served a very good purpose, for it restrained sin and it promoted godliness to certain degrees. Its design was good, but it pointed toward Christ, and when He came, there was a better one, and there doesn’t need to be a best, because the better is the best; there are only two. And so, the new covenant is better.

Now, there’s a beautiful illustration of how Christ guarantees this new covenant, I think, found in Genesis 43, verses 8 and 9. Just jot it down and I’ll read it to you. Genesis 43:8 and 9, “And Judah said unto Israel his father, ‘Send the lad with me, and we will arise and go’ – now, this is – the lad being Benjamin going to Egypt – ‘that we may live and not die’ – remember the famine was going on – ‘both me and thou and also our little ones. I will be surety for him; of my hand shalt thou require him. If I bring him not unto thee and set him before thee, then let me bear the blame forever.’”

Now, you remember that all of the brothers went down to Egypt, and Joseph had been made one of the muckety-mucks down there, and he had a lot of the grain and stuff that his family needed. And so, they went down there to Egypt to get in on some of the goodies that were there, and they went without Benjamin, who was the baby of the family. And so, Joseph wanted to see Benjamin; so, he sent them all back and said, “Bring Benjamin.”

Well, Judah says to his father, “I want to bring Benjamin.”

And his father says, “Not Benjamin, my beloved Benjamin.”

And he says, “‘Look, I will be the surety of Benjamin.’” And he says this – that’s the very word “surety.” “‘Of my hand shalt though require him. If I bring him not unto thee and set him before thee, let me bear the blame forever.’” You see, he guarantees the promise that he will return Benjamin. He stands as the surety of the promise.

Judah was faithful to his agreement to care for Benjamin, and even before Joseph, this is what he said in chapter 44 of Genesis, “For thy servant became surety for the lad unto my father, saying, ‘If I bring him not unto thee, then I shall bear the blame to my father forever.’ Now therefore, I pray thee, let thy servant abide instead of the lad.” He even says, “I’ll be a bondman to my lord, and let the lad go with his brother.” And he pleads the case of Benjamin as the guaranteer of Benjamin’s safe return. And so, we see Judah as a surety of a better covenant and a type of Christ.

There’s another beautiful example. There’s a little book in the New Testament, and I think one of these months we’re going to do a study of it, Philemon. It’s only one chapter, and probably a lot of people don’t even know what’s in there, but it’s a beautiful story about a slave, by the name of Onesimus, who was really giving problems to his master named Philemon.

Now, Paul volunteers to be the surety for Onesimus, and verses 18 and 19 of Philemon, says this, “If he hath wronged thee, or oweth thee ought, put that on my account; I Paul have written it with my own hand, I will repay it.” Now, what happens? Paul says, “I will guarantee everything in the behalf of Onesimus.”

So, in like manner, Jesus Christ Himself engaged as the guaranteer in the service of the Father says to the Father, “Charge to my account whatever my people do, and I will fully pay their debts. Whatever they owe; I’ll pay it.” He’s the guarantee so that our covenant with God can never be violated. Every time we bring a debt to bear, Jesus pays it. And therefore, the covenant is maintained. You see?

Our covenant with God cannot ever be broken, because as soon as a debt exists, Christ pays it. Isn’t that a fantastic thing? Wrapped up in that is the security of the believer. He pays every debt instantly upon its being owed. He is the surety of a better covenant. And dear ones, there was no such surety in the old covenant. When you blew it, you had to come crawling back all by yourself. But in Jesus Christ, we have the surety of a better covenant. He is our guarantee; not only is He willing to be, better than that He’s able. I like that part. Right? And God is completely satisfied with His performance. The only question remaining is are you satisfied with Him? He is the surety of a better covenant. If you’re satisfied with Him and what He’s done in your behalf, that’s all you need. He takes care of the covenant.

You know, there are some Christians who think they have to maintain the covenant. Did you know that? “Well, I’ve got to work and make sure I don’t get disconnected from God, and mmm,” and running around and stirring up all kinds of works. Stop being satisfied with your works. Stop being satisfied with your good deeds, your church attendance, your resolutions, and your baptism. God is satisfied with Jesus; you’re wasting your time. And He takes care of all the debts. He’s the guaranteer of the covenant. That’s all you need. He is our surety, securing the covenant, securing that it is a better covenant, providing access.

You know, we think of Jesus often as a mediator, and it’s nice to have a mediator, but it’s better to have a surety. Isn’t it? It’s great to have a mediator who carries on the functions of the covenant; it’s better to have a surety who guarantees the eternal character of the covenant. So, all of God’s promises in the new covenant then are guaranteed to us by Jesus who is the guaranteer, who pays our debts immediately upon their being owed.

All right, He’s the surety of a better covenant. That doesn’t even begin to discuss that subject. I hope you understand that. That’s just the initiation.

But the second point – oh, I hate to go on – anyway, Savior to the uttermost. Savior to the uttermost. Verses 23 to 25 introduces us to the second term describing Jesus. From verse 25, it says, “Where He is able also to save them to the uttermost.” This is a fantastic point. And oh, this is rich. Verse 23, “And they truly were many priests” – now He’s back to Aaron and his Levite priests again – “they truly were many priests” – I mean they just kept coming, you know, one after the other. Why? Because they were not allowed to continue by reason of death. They had this problem. They kept dying, see? This disqualified them always. Whenever you died, you were immediately disqualified. Every one of them kept being disqualified because they kept dying. You see? And then this is a characteristic of the Levitical priesthood that God even wanted the Jews to be aware of; their bodies were always being buried, and successors followed.

One of the interesting things that God wanted to use to point this out, and I think, in a sense, God was running way ahead of Himself in their understanding – they didn’t understand probably what was going on; we do, and it’s a beautiful picture. But Aaron was getting ready to die. Of course God knew exactly when he’d die; the timetable was all set in God’s mind, but the death of Aaron was arriving in Numbers chapter 20. So, verse 23 tells us this, “And the Lord spoke unto Moses and Aaron in mount Hor, by the border of the land of Edom, saying, ‘Aaron shall be gathered unto his people’ – that means buried – ‘for he shall not enter into the land which I have given unto the children of Israel, because you rebelled by word at the water of Meribah.’” “Aaron’s going to die,” He says.

Now, here’s what to do, “‘Take Aaron and Eleazar his son,’ – now, Aaron is the high priest; who’s going to succeed him? Eleazar his son – ‘bring them up unto the mount and strip Aaron of his garments,’ – take all his priestly regalia off – ‘and put them on Eleazar his son: and Aaron shall be gathered unto his people, and shall die there.’ And Moses did as the Lord commanded: they went up into the mount – mount Hor in the sight of all the congregation.’” Now, that’s the whole point. God wanted everybody in Israel to see that priests of the Levitical order kept dying. So, He made Aaron’s death totally public so nobody would think that Aaron just kind of floated off into never-never land. You know? Or went off like Elijah in a whirlwind or whatever. No. Or a fiery chariot. Not at all. They wanted them to know. God wanted them to know that this was a dying priesthood. And so, they brought them out in sight of all the congregation. Moses stripped Aaron of his garments, put them on Eleazar his son; Aaron died there in the top of the mount, in the view of everybody. And when the congregation saw that Aaron was dead, they mourned for Aaron thirty days, even all the house of Israel.” Aaron was dead, and everybody knew it; and that was God’s point.

God, from the very beginning, with the very first priest, let everybody know this was a dying, temporary priesthood, and that there would just be priest after priest after priest, rolling right along. And none of them could ever finally bring that perfection. None of them could ever get them all the way to God. None of them could ever save them to the uttermost, because long before they got to the uttermost, they kept dying. Many priests, many priests. There were at least 83 of them from Aaron to 70 A.D., 13 under the tabernacle prior to Solomon, 18 under the first temple, and the remainder until the final destruction in 70 A.D. But at least 83 of them, and that’s a lot. And death was the reason for all of them. Now this limited them.

Now, you can imagine – for example, let’s say you were a Jew, and you loved your high priest. And I’m sure many of the people of Israel dearly loved the high priest. They would go in, you know, and they were always offering sacrifices week in, week out, week in, week out, of all the years of their lives. Maybe you had a high priest who understood you. And you just loved that man. He was a precious man. He felt your needs. He knew you by first name. He cared for you, and he ministered to you, and you dearly loved him. And one day he died. He died. That was the end of your high priest. And maybe he was succeeded by his son, and maybe his son was a good son, but in your mind you said to yourself, “You know, he’s a good son, but he’ll never be like his father was to me. Oh, he’s so young, and he wouldn’t understand me, and, ah, his father understood me, and we had this wonderful relationship. It’ll just never be like it used to be. My priest is gone.” And it would be a very sad thing.

And then even worse, if his son was evil. I mean can you imagine the poor people who were in love with Eli, waiting for Eli to be succeeded by his cruddy sons? And the prayers were rising daily in Israel, “God, don’t let Eli die.” You know? Because his priesthood was going to be cut off, and he was going to be replaced by two who were – one of the two who were inadequate. But, you see, it had nothing to do with spirituality; it had only to do with physical things. Right? It was the law of a carnal commandment. We studied it last time in verse 16. So, it was a physical issue. Death kept hindering their ministry.

You want to know something about our High Priest? He never dies. You see? He never dies. You see, that’s why He can save us from the beginning to the uttermost, because it’s never broken. There is no stopping His salvation. It goes all the way into access with God, anchors us there, and holds us forever because He’s a forever Priest. That’s the meaning of verse 24, “But this one, because He continues ever, hath an unchangeable priesthood.” You see? You see the difference? Jesus is the Great High Priest, and He has no possibility of end, and there is no possibility that He will ever be succeeded by one who couldn’t measure up to Him, because He’ll always be the only High Priest. “He continueth ever.” And then you notice the word “unchangeable.” Oh, that’s a tremendous word, aparabatos. It means indissoluble; the idea that it can never come to a conclusion or an end. It describes something which belongs to one person and can never be transferred to anyone else.

A certain medical writer uses it in ancient script to describe absolute scientific law which can never be violated, “the principle on which the very universe is built,” he says. So, the writer is saying that Jesus Christ has a priesthood that is absolutely incapable of ever being altered. It can’t be supplanted; it can’t be replaced. It is eternal. And then he uses the term continues, paramenein which means permanence. Paramenein from which we get basically permanence. It sounds very the same – very much the same. It means to remain for good.

You say, “Well, what about when Jesus died? When He died, His priesthood was never even stopped, never even ceased. You read carefully, and you find in the New Testament that when His body was dead on the cross, His Spirit was alive, and He was maintaining His eternal priesthood. He is still my Priest today; he is my Priest till the day I die. He was the Priest of Paul; He was the priest of every Christian who’s ever lived, and He’ll be the Priest of every Christian who ever lives. And He’ll be my Priest throughout every possible, conceivable point in eternity because He has an unchanging, continuing ever priesthood. And I’ll never have to sadden my heart with His death and think, “Oh, I wonder what the next one will be like.” His is eternal. Therefore, He is the Priest of a better covenant.

And the point is, therefore, to the Jews, “Come to Christ; He’s all that your priesthood isn’t.” See the point? His priesthood is unbroken; it is forever. He is the last High Priest.

Verse 25, “Wherefore, because of this, He is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by Him, seeing He ever liveth to make intercession for them.” Because He lives forever making intercession, He takes us to the uttermost extreme possibility of salvation. He never stops. We go all the way, as far as there is to go. His priesthood is absolute; His priesthood is final He is able to fulfill completely the ideal office of the priest, which is to save to the uttermost.

Can you imagine if there had ever been a priest in Israel who could have done that, who could have taken those people all the way to the fulness of salvation, brought them into the Holy of Holies, and seated them on the lap of God on His own throne, what a priest He would have been? There was none. Only Jesus Christ can take us all the way to God and, as the end of chapter 6 says, anchor us there.

Now, let’s look at this for just a moment in verse 25, because this verse is one of the greatest in the Scripture. What does it mean when it says, “Wherefore He is able also to save?” What does it mean “to save?” Well, the doctrine of salvation is the main theme of Scripture. The main theme of revelation, here in the Word of God, is salvation. That’s what the Bible’s all about. I noticed an article in the paper today about the big theological conclave in Los Angeles, that they said “Salvation” – and they used the term – “Salvation is important, but certainly we don’t want to overdo it.”

We can learn some things from nature. We can learn certain things from nature, and we call that natural revelation. You can learn, Paul says in Romans 1, from looking at nature about the eternal power of God and His godhead, but the birds don’t sing a redemption song; and the waves don’t pound out the Gospel; and the stars declare the glory of God, not the four spiritual laws. In order to understand salvation, you must get off of natural revelation and get into special revelation. That’s why when people say, “Well, I worship God at the beach,” or, “I worship God in the mountains,” it’s very superficial, because you cannot understand God apart from special revelation in His salvation revelation. And what we learn in the Bible is the story of salvation. That’s the theme of the Bible.

Now, this morning we mentioned the word salvation and told you that it means deliverance. When you go back, for example, to Exodus chapter 14, verses 13 and 30, you find Israel delivered from Egypt. And there is the basic meaning of the word “salvation,” to deliver. The kind of deliverance the Bible presents is not temporal; it’s not transient deliverance. The kind that Christ gives is spiritual and eternal deliverance from sin. That’s what He does. He delivers men from sin and its consequence.

The danger which men face, in which they live all their lives, is sin with its terrible consequences of guilt, the curse, slavery to Satan, death, and final hell. This is sin with all of its implications. It is from that which Christ saves. He saves us from sins, from guilt, from Satan, from death, from the wrath to come, from hell. And, you know, that wasn’t easy to do. It was not easy to subdue Satan, to fulfill the law, to remove the curse, to take away sin, to satisfy God, to procure pardon, to purchase grace and glory, but He did it. And He did it to the uttermost so that He could take us all the way to the fullness of salvation, didn’t have to let us off somewhere along the line to find our way the rest of the path through another source.

Now, I want to look at, for just a minute, the detail of this verse. If you’re looking for a good, evangelistic sermon, here are all the points you need in verse 25. Let’s look, first of all, at the basis of uttermost salvation. What is its basis? The word “wherefore.” Wherefore is the basis. Wherefore takes us backwards to His unchanging priesthood. The reason He can save us to the uttermost is because He is a forever Priest. Do you see? He can take us all the way because His priesthood is eternal. Other priests fell short because they kept dying. But based on His unchanging priesthood is His ability to save us to the uttermost. That’s the basis.

Then the nature of uttermost salvation. What is its nature? The word “save.” He is able to save in the fullest sense. Now, the word salvation – and you know this – has three parts: past, present, and future. Three tenses to salvation. The past tense has to do with deliverance from sin’s guilt; the present tense, deliverance from sin’s power; and the future tense, deliverance from sin’s presence. The first is done at the cross; the second at the throne as He intercedes and continues to cleanse us; the third at the second coming, as He comes and translates us.

And so, salvation has three tenses. In fact, in Titus, I’m thinking in 2:11 there, 12 and 13, all three tenses are listed. Titus 2:11, “For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men.” We have been saved. The grace of God that brings salvation, we have been saved.

Secondly, the present tense, “Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present age.” There’s the present concept of a godly life, as we’re being saved or being kept saved.

The future in 13, “Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Savior Jesus Christ.”

There are the three tenses: we have been saved; we are being kept; and we shall be redeemed in the full sense. And so, the nature of salvation – uttermost salvation is total. It is salvation past, present, and future. That is ours in Christ.

Then look at the power of uttermost salvation. I love this word, “Wherefore He is” – what’s the next word? – “able.” Oh, that’s good. Because the other priests weren’t, but He is. You know something? I bet the other priests wish they were. I’m sure they did. All power is His. You go back to chapter 2, verse 18 in Hebrews, and you have that same statement. And we could pass it by so easily. It says, “For in that He Himself hath suffered being tempted, He is able to help them that are tempted.” Oh, it’s not just that he’s willing; it’s that He’s able. It’s that He’s able.

This dear friend of mine has a little boy who recently they found out has leukemia. Four years old. I went to the Children’s Hospital the other night, and went in the room. And it’s a hard thing. You know? It very, very hard for a parent. I know, because I have a four-year-old boy. And He was just – it was a heartbreaking thing. They found out the little fellow had leukemia just – He was just not feeling well one day. A couple days later, he had leukemia; he’s in the hospital for 30 days of treatment and tests before they’ll know anything.

I went in there, and you know something? I wanted to make him well. You know that? I – all the time I want to do that. I tell people very often, “If I was only a doctor; I could give you a prescription, you know, for your spiritual problem, and it would be all over, but I can’t.”

And even when I see a physical problem, I say, “I wish I could do something.” But I can’t. I am willing, but I’m not able. I have a man that I’ve prayed for for 13 years to come to Jesus Christ. I am so willing for Him to be saved, but I am not able. I’m not able. It reminds me of my own – my oldest son, Matt, who’s 8, one time trying to carry out the trash. He was willing; he was not able. Oh, do I rejoice in the prospect of the day that he is able. He is willing. He is ever saying, “Dad, I’ll carry it.” I get off the airplane with all my bags, “I’ll carry them, dad. Mmm.” And he doesn’t – he can’t. He’s willing; he’s not able.

Our Great High Priest is not only willing, but He’s what? He’s able. Aaron was willing, but he wasn’t able. Praise God for Christ who is able. That’s the power of uttermost salvation.

The extent of uttermost salvation? To the uttermost. As one guy said, “From the gutter most to the uttermost.” This has a double kind of meaning, the idea of uttermost. It means that He will bring us to full salvation, something the priests couldn’t do, and it means that He will hold us there forever. Salvation is both perfect and complete. It is eternal and forever. He is able to save exhaustively and forever; comprehensively and eternally. All the way.

Then we have the objects of uttermost salvation. Who gets this salvation? “Wherefore He is able to save them” – which them? – “them that come unto God by Him.” That’s the object of uttermost salvation. Perfection is open and available to them that come unto God by Him. There’s no other way. Jesus said, “No man comes unto the Father” – what? – “but by Me.”

Oh, you hear these people so many times. I meet them on campuses and everywhere, “Well, you fundamentalists go around, ‘Well, there’s only way; you got to...’ Don’t you realize there are all these people in the world believing all of this and all of that? And aren’t there a lot of ways to God?”

“No man cometh unto the Father but by Me.”

And I always say, “Look, I could tell you that, and you’d be happy. But it’s a lie. So, I’d rather tell you the truth. There’s only one way. Only one way.”

He is able to save all, but all aren’t saved. Only them that come unto God by Him. And Jesus Himself said, John 5:40, “Ye will not” – what? – “come that you might have life.” That’s the problem. That’s the problem. It doesn’t say that He saves to the uttermost those that are baptized. It doesn’t say that He saves to the uttermost those that are church members or any of that other. It says, “He saves those that come unto God by Jesus Christ.”

“Come” is one of God’s favorite words. He started it in Genesis 7:1 with Noah, and He wraps up the whole Bible in Revelation 22:17 by saying, “Come.” The whole book of Revelation is “Come, come, come, come to salvation.” It’s not enough to hear; there must be a response.

So many times I think that we have thought we’ve accomplished the purpose when we’ve presented the truth. No, there must be a response. Parent, keep that in mind when you work with your children. That it’s not enough to just tell them and keep telling them and keep telling them; there must be a response. If the truth does not bring a response, the truth will damn a person. To come is to cast yourself completely on God by faith in Jesus Christ; there is no other way.

Then he goes on to one other point: the security of uttermost salvation. How do you know that once you’ve got it, you’re going to hang onto it? “Seeing He ever lives to keep on making intercession for them.” Oh, is that fantastic. Not only does He save you initially, but He keeps interceding on your behalf. And you know how His intercession works? “Father, he just sinned; put it on my account.” He constantly is your guarantee that the covenant is never violated.

People say, “Can you lose your salvation? Not as long as Jesus is the surety. Not as long as He’s the surety. And how long will He be the surety? Forever. He secures us by His perpetual life. His perpetual life. He says, “Because I live, ye shall” – what? – “live also.” As long as my life goes on, that’s how long yours goes on.”

Oh, stupendous work. And this is what Paul, I think, is talking about. Oh, I just really – this is a loaded thought, but let’s go to Romans 5:10 for just a quick minute. We’ll just take a little seed thought out of it anyway. Romans 5:10, “For if, when we were enemies” – now, before we were saved, we were enemies against God, rebels – “if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of His Son” – stop right there. Now, that’s a negative thing, bringing about a great change. What is the negative thing? Death. Death is a negative. True? Christ did a lot with His death. He took a negative and did a tremendous work. By a negative, His death, He reconciled us to God. If a negative could do this, I wonder what a positive could do. Listen to the rest of the verse, “much more, being reconciled, we shall be continually being saved by His” – what? – by His life.

Listen to this, if His death did so much for you, imagine what His life must be doing for you. If by His death He could redeem you from Satan and sin, by His life imagine how He must hold you. You see, that’s what Paul’s saying. We are being saved. Present tense, kept by His life. If His death could do what it could do, a negative, what His positive can do, His life. Fantastic thought.

That’s why Jude says, “He’s able to keep you from falling and to present you” – what? – “faultless.” Faultless. That’s why Paul says, “That He which hath begun a good work in you shall perform it until the day of Jesus Christ.” He continues to intercede in tender, compassionate love, to present us ultimately to God in perfect, uttermost salvation. What a Savior. What a High Priest. Surety of a better covenant; Savior to the uttermost.

Third thing, separate from sinners. Oh, this is good. All those Levitical priests were sinners, and they had to go around offering sacrifices for themselves before they could for the people. Let’s look at verse 26, “Fr such an High Priest” – listen – “was fitting for us” – and the word “becoming” there means becoming in the sense of fitting – “who is holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and made higher than the heavens.” Now, that’s not like Aaron, because verse 27 describe Aaron, “Who needeth not daily, as those high priests, to offer up sacrifice, first for his own sins, and then for the people’s” – no, He didn’t have to do that. He was, “holy harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and made higher than the heavens.”

He was a fitting High Priest, prepō which means to be fitting or to be becoming. Christ is the fitting High Priest; He fits the requirements. He does all that we need Him to do. He is the perfect one. His sympathy is the fullest because He has endured a temptation to its extreme, for He who is tempted and never succumbs knows temptation at all its limits. And He is fitting because not only is He sympathetic, but He’s able. He’s able. He not only feels what we feel, but He knows the way of escape.

And so, He branches in, beginning in verse 26, to the sinlessness of Jesus Christ: perfect, holy, harmless, and undefiled. Let’s look at the terms He uses. First of fall, He uses the term holy. The only high priest, incidentally, in the Old Testament, who was fitting to get before God was a holy one. His holiness wasn’t his own, but he had to offer sacrifices to render himself holy. And so, the priests, as it says in verse 27, every day had to offer up a sacrifices for his own sins first, and then for the people. And then he would run into God, in just kind of a temporary holiness, and he could only stay for a minute on the Day of Atonement, once a year, and then he’d have to get out of there fast. He wasn’t holy of his own holiness, but Christ was.

In fact, when Christ was born, in Luke 1:35, His humanity was called – quote – that holy thing. He was holy from the very beginning. He could say in John 14:30, “The prince of this world cometh, but hath nothing in Me.” There was no capacity in Jesus for anything but holiness.

Now, the word for holy is usually hagios which means separated unto God, saintly, holy. It’s a very, very important word in Scripture. But that’s not the word here. It’s as if the Holy Spirit wants to just emphasize the holiness of Christ so much that He pulls out a completely different word. It is the word hosios. H-O-S-I-O-S. And it refers to holiness of character; hagios is holiness of service. Hagios means separated unto God to service; hosios means personal holiness. The Lord Jesus Christ is both hagios and hosios.

And it says He’s harmless. Holiness points toward God, harmless toward men. No wickedness toward men. Jesus never harmed men. He lived for others. He went about doing good, always for others. Harmless. Never injuring anyone else. Do you know that some of the priests of the Levite line were terrible, terrible men who injured their people spiritually? No Jesus.

Then He goes on, “He was undefiled.” That means free from blemish and defilement. You know, when you think about it, Jesus Christ, for 33 years, was in the world, under the curse, mingling daily with sinners and Satan, and yet He never contracted one possible taint of defilement. Just like the rays of the sun, they may shine under the foulest, stagnant pond, but they never lose any of their purity. So, Jesus Christ moved through the world and was untouched by any of its blemishes. He was in contact with Satan, but He always came out as spotless as He went in. He touched the leper, and the leper was clean. He contacted death, and death died. There never was a priest who was undefiled, but Jesus was such a High Priest.

And then He says this, “He is separate from sinners.” Aren’t you glad? I am so glad that He is. He is a different class of creature than sinful men. A different class. In fact, He is made higher than the heavens. That’s the class that He’s in. Now, that’s such a High Priest. Tremendous thought.

And then verse 27, He carries the contrast a little further, “Who needeth not daily, as those high priests, to offer up sacrifice, first for his own sins, and then for the people’s” – He doesn’t need to do that; He doesn’t have any sin. He doesn’t have to offer for His own sin; He doesn’t have any. And He doesn’t need to repeat His sacrifice, verse 27 at the end, “for this He did” – what? – “once, when He offered up Himself.” He didn’t have to do it over and over again. He did it once, and a perfect Priest, and a perfect sacrifice, and it was done. Once is all it took. The perfect Priest, the perfect sacrifice. Oh, what a Priest He is. The surety of a better covenant, the Savior to the uttermost, the separate from sinners.

Then a summary statement in verse 28. Listen to it, “For the law” – that is the Old Testament ceremonial, Levitical, and Aaronic system – “maketh men high priests who have infirmity; but the word of the oath, which was since the law, maketh the Son, who is perfected forevermore.” You see?

When God set up the Levitical priesthood, it made men priests who were weak. But when God set up the priesthood of Jesus, He did it with an oath, and it was a perfect priesthood. Perfect for how long? Forevermore.

The old covenant, the law granted a priesthood to men who were weak and couldn’t bring perfection. They couldn’t bring access to God; they couldn’t save to the uttermost. But God superseded that with the word of His oath when He said, “I’ll swear, and I will not repent, Thou art a priest forever after the order of Melchizedek,” and Jesus came the perfect Priest. And He brings salvation in all three tenses. And our priest is “able to save to the uttermost them that come unto God by Him, seeing He ever liveth to make intercession for them.”

In the Old Testament, the priest wore a breastplate, and on the breastplate were all the stones representing the 12 tribes so that whenever he went into the presence of God, he carried with him on his chest all the tribes of Israel. He also wore, draped over his shoulders, what the Bible calls an ephod. Now, we don’t really know what an ephod looked like, but apparently it was some kind of a thing that went over the shoulders. And on the ephod, on his shoulder, were all the names of the 12 tribes also. On the chest or the breast and the shoulder.

You say, “What was the point?”

The priest bore the children of Israel to God on his heart, his affections; and on his shoulder, his strength. You see, this is the indication of what the priesthood is to be. First, a heart for the people; secondly, the strength to help them. But you know what? The Old Testament priest could have the heart for the people, but he didn’t have the strength. Jesus Christ, right now, is at God’s right hand. And on His heart is my name. That’s affection. He loves me. And beyond that, beloved, on His shoulder is my name. Not only is He willing, but He’s – what? – He’s able. Let’s pray.

Father, we thank You for our High Priest. Oh how glorious is He to us. Thank You for what we’ve seen tonight in the unveiling of our Great High Priest.

Lord Jesus, we just want to praise You right now. We want to adore You for who You are. Oh what a Priest. Thank You for interceding for us right now. Thank You for being a surety of a better covenant and saying to the Father, “Put that on My account.” Thank You for being the Savior to the uttermost, who doesn’t do it partially, but brings us into the Holy of Holies and anchors us there. Thank You for being separate from sinners so that You don’t need to offer sin sacrifice for Yourself, so that You’re not just an example, so that You’re not just a martyr, but You’re perfect, and Your perfection accomplishes what no man’s imperfection could ever accomplish. We thank You that You bear our names on Your heart, but more so on Your shoulder. You’re not only willing, but You’re able.

And, Father, we know that tonight if there are some here who do not know You, who have never come to You by Jesus Christ, that You’re able to save them to the uttermost if they’ll come; if they’ll come. May it be so, in Jesus’ name, amen.https://www.gty.org/sermons/print/1618/jesus-the-guarantee-of-a-better-covenant

The Second Great Awakening was a religious revival movement that began in the late 18th century and peaked in the 1820s and 1830s. It was characterized by a surge in evangelical fervor, increased church membership, and the formation of new religious denominations, particularly among Baptists and Methodists. This movement encouraged personal religious experiences and emotional expressions of faith, contrasting with the more formal and intellectual approaches of previous eras.

Emergence of Mormonism

The Latter Day Saint movement, which led to the establishment of Mormonism, arose during this period of revival. Joseph Smith, the founder of the movement, claimed to have experienced a series of divine visions starting in 1820. In these visions, he was told that the existing churches were incorrect and that he was chosen to restore the true church of Jesus Christ. This led to the translation of the Book of Mormon, which Smith claimed to have found on golden plates revealed to him by an angel.

Moroni (/məˈroʊnaɪ/) is described in the Book of Mormon as the last Nephite prophet, historian, and military commander who, according to the faith of the Latter Day Saint movement, became the Angel Moroni who presented the golden plates to Joseph Smith.

Mantua was settled in the mid-19th century when members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints were sent by Lorenzo Snow to the valley to grow flax. The first group arrived in Mantua in 1863 (although a sign at the main entry route states "Founded 1864"),[6] and were all émigrés from Denmark led by Hans Jens Jensen.

The friendliness of the Mormons towards Catholics is attributed to their appreciation that their settlement in the great Salt Lake Valley is due to having been directed to it by Fr. Pierre Jean de Smet, the great Jesuit missionary and explorer, who met and was entertained by Brigham Young in Council Bluffs, while the Mormons were on their trek West. Writing to his nephew, Fr. de Smet said: "They asked me a thousand questions about the regions I had explored, and the valley I have just described to you, pleased them greatly from the account I gave of it. Was that what determined them to settle there? I would not dare affirm it. They are there!"

Angels fell from God's temple

The biblical account of angels falling from heaven is a complex narrative that has been interpreted in various ways. While Revelation 12:4 suggests that one-third of the angels followed Satan, the concept of fallen angels is rooted in the idea that some angels, led by Lucifer, rebelled against God and were cast out of heaven. This narrative is supported by other biblical passages, such as Isaiah 14:12-15, which describes Lucifer's fall from grace. The fall of angels is often associated with their lust, pride, envy, or attempts to usurp divinity. The story of the fallen angels serves as a cautionary tale about the consequences of rebellion against divine authority.

The only word in the subject text from which some infer the popular

hybrid conjecture is the word that is translated “giants” from the Hebrew:

H5303, from which we derive the word “nephilim”. There is only one

other place in the Bible where this word is used, and there it is simply used

in reference to men who are tall in stature, and that after the Flood. Giants

and tyrants can also be synonymous for example, Goliath was a giant who

used his great stature to bully others, he was a tyrant.

So whether the giants in the subject text were actually great in stature or

only tyrants or both remains inconclusive. But it is not express nor

explicit in the text that these giants were hybrid demon-humans. At this

point many want to turn to the opinion of ancient Rabbi's and other extra

Biblical sources, to which I answer, if men can be deceived today, they

were certainly subject to deception in times past. So let us first thoroughly

exhaust the Word of God before we consider investigating extra biblical

textual matter, perhaps we need look no further.

The events which led up to the conspiracy against

the Grand Master, Hiram Abiff, mentioned in our last

chapter, and which culminated in hip murder,

commenced with the arrival of the Queen of Sheba

who had been attracted to the court of Solomon by

tales of his wonderful wisdom and of the splendor

of the temple he was engaged in building. She is

said to have come laden with gorgeous gifts and it

is stated that at first she was much impressed with

the wisdom of Solomon. But even the Bible, which

is written from the standpoint of the Jehovistic Hier

archies, hints that she saw at the court of Solomon one

that was fairer than he and there the Bible narrative

leaves her. Her marriage with. Solomon was never

consummated orthe name of Mason would have faded

FREEMASONRY AND CATHOUCISM

from memory long ere the present day and humanity

at large would now be docile children of the domin

ant church, without free will, choice or prerogative.

Nor could she be permitted to wed Hiram, who rep

resented the temporal power, or Eeligion would have

been stamped out; she must wait for the bridegroom

who shall embody within himself the combined good

qualities of Solomon and Hiram, but who is purified

from their weaknesses. For the Queen of Sheba is

the composite soul of Humanity, and at the consum

mation of the work of our evolutionary era she will

be the bride, while Christ, whom Paul called a High

Priest after the order of Melchisedec, will fill the

dual office of both spiritual and temporal head, where

He will be both kins and priest, to the eternal wel

fare of mankind at large who are now in bondage

either to church or state but waiting, whether they

realize it or not, for the day of emancipation, sym

bolically represented as the Millenium, when there

will be a wonderful city, a new Jerusalem, a city of

peace. And the earlier this amalgamation can be

brought about, the better for humanity. Therefore

an attempt was made at the time and in the place

which is said in the Legend to be the scene of Solo

mon's and Hiram's love episode. There the two Ini

tiatory Orders met for the consummation of a definite

work of amalgamation symbolically called The Mol

ten sea, a work which was then attempted for the

first time. It could not have been wrought at any

earlier period, for man was not sufficiently advanced.

Who was Huram / Hiram in the Bible?

Answer

Three people in the Bible were named Hiram, and two of them were associated with Tyre, the ancient Phoenician city-state on the Mediterranean coast. In some cases, Huram is a variant used for the name Hiram. Hiram in Hebrew and its variant Huram both mean “brother of the exalted.”

The first Hiram was the king of Tyre who reigned during the time of King David and his son King Solomon. The earliest mention of King Hiram in the Bible is after David conquered Jerusalem and established his capital there. Hiram sent timber, carpenters, and other skilled laborers for David to employ in the building of his palace: “Now Hiram king of Tyre sent envoys to David, along with cedar logs and carpenters and stonemasons, and they built a palace for David” (2 Samuel 5:11). In the books of 1 and 2 Chronicles, he is called Huram (1 Chronicles 14:1; 2 Chronicles 2:3).

During Hiram’s reign, Tyre grew into a dominant and thriving commercial center and the most important port city in the Mediterranean. Hiram engaged in extensive building projects and colonized several Mediterranean islands such as Cyprus and Sicily. He also pursued commercial maritime endeavors.

In the writings of the first-century historian Josephus, we learn that Hiram ruled in Tyre for 34 years and died at age 53. Throughout his lifetime, King Hiram remained David’s friend and ally. His long affection for David passed down to King Solomon, with whom he continued friendly relations: “Now Hiram king of Tyre sent his servants to Solomon when he heard that they had anointed him king in place of his father, for Hiram always loved David” (1 Kings 5:1, ESV).

When Solomon built the temple, Hiram sent timber, gold, and craftsmen to help with the construction and assemble the furnishings. In return, Solomon gave grain and oil to Hiram to supply his household. The two kings developed a commercial trading alliance. Solomon also gave Hiram twenty cities in the territory of Galilee, but, when King Hiram surveyed these cities, he was not pleased with them and called the area “the Land of Kabul,” which roughly translates into “the Good-for-nothing Land” (1 Kings 9:10–14; 26–28).

Another man named Hiram worked on Solomon’s temple as a metalsmith. He was from Tyre, as was his father, and his mother was from the tribe of Naphtali: “King Solomon sent to Tyre and brought Huram, whose mother was a widow from the tribe of Naphtali and whose father was from Tyre and a skilled craftsman in bronze. Huram was filled with wisdom, with understanding and with knowledge to do all kinds of bronze work. He came to King Solomon and did all the work assigned to him” (1 Kings 7:13–14).

Hiram the metalsmith is referred to as Huram in 2 Chronicles 4:11 but called Huram-abi in 2 Chronicles 2:13 and 4:16. Abi means “master.”

A third man mentioned in the Bible with the name Huram was a grandson of Benjamin (1 Chronicles 8:3–5). Scholars believe he may have been the same as Hupham, the Benjamite listed in Numbers 26:39.

Matthew 23

1599 Geneva Bible

23 2 How the Scribes teaching the people the Law of Moses, behave themselves. 5 Their Phylacteries, and Fringes. 7 Greetings. 8 We are brethren. 9 The Father. 10 The servant. 13 To shut the kingdom of heaven. 14 To devour widow’s houses. 15 A Proselyte. 16 To swear by the Temple. 23 To tithe mint. 25 To cleanse the outside of the cup. 27 Painted sepulchers. 33 Serpents, vipers. 37 The Hen.

1 Then spake Jesus to the multitude, and to his disciples,

2 [a]Saying, The Scribes and the Pharisees [b]sit in Moses’ seat.

3 [c]All therefore whatsoever they bid you observe, that observe and do: but after their works do not: for they say, and do not.

4 [d]For they bind heavy burdens, and grievous to be borne, and lay them on men’s shoulders, but they themselves will not move them with one of their fingers.

5 [e]All their works they do for to be seen of men: for they make their [f]phylacteries broad, and make long [g]the fringes of their garments,

6 And love the chief place at feasts, and to have the chief seats in the [h]assemblies,

7 And greetings in the markets, and to be called of men, Rabbi, [i]Rabbi.

8 [j]But be not ye [k]called, Rabbi: for [l]one is your doctor, to wit, Christ, and all ye are brethren.

9 And call no man your [m]father upon the earth: for there is but one, your father which is in heaven.

10 Be not called [n]doctors: for one is your doctor, even Christ.

11 But he that is greatest among you, let him be your servant.

12 For whosoever [o]will exalt himself, shall be brought low: and whosoever will humble himself, shall be exalted.

13 ¶ [p]Woe therefore be unto you, Scribes and Pharisees, [q]hypocrites, because ye shut up the kingdom of heaven before men: for ye yourselves go not in, neither suffer ye them that would [r]enter, to come in.

14 [s]Woe be unto you, Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites: for ye devour widows’ houses, even [t]under a color of long prayers: wherefore ye shall receive the greater damnation.

15 Woe be unto you, Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites: for ye compass sea and [u]land to make one of your profession: and when he is made, ye make him twofold more the child of hell, than you yourselves.

16 Woe be unto you blind guides, which say, Whosoever sweareth by the Temple, it is nothing: but whosoever sweareth by the gold of the Temple, he [v]offendeth.

17 Ye fools and blind, Whether is greater, the gold, or the Temple that [w]sanctifieth the gold?

18 And whosoever sweareth by the altar, it is nothing: but whosoever sweareth by the offering that is upon it, offendeth.

19 Ye fools and blind, whether is greater, the offering, or the altar which sanctifieth the offering?

20 Whosoever therefore sweareth by the altar, sweareth by it, and by all things thereon.

21 And whosoever sweareth by the Temple, sweareth by it, and by him that dwelleth therein.

22 And he that sweareth by heaven, sweareth by the [x]throne of God, and by him that sitteth theron.

23 ¶ [y]Woe be to you, Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites: for ye tithe mint, and anise, and cummin, and leave the weightier matters of the law, as judgment, and mercy and [z]fidelity. These ought ye to have done, and not to have left the other.

24 Ye blind guides, which strain out a gnat, and swallow a camel.

25 ¶ [aa]Woe be to you, Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites: for ye make clean the utter side of the cup, and of the platter: but within they are full of bribery and excess.

26 Thou blind Pharisee, cleanse first the inside of the cup and platter, that the outside of them may be clean also.

27 Woe be to you, Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites: for ye are like unto whited tombs, which appear beautiful outward, but are within full of dead men’s bones, and all filthiness.

28 So are ye also: for outward ye appear righteous unto men, but within ye are full of hypocrisy and iniquity.

29 [ab]Woe be unto you, Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites: for ye build the tombs of the Prophets, and garnish the sepulchers of the righteous,

30 And say, If we had been in the days of our fathers, we would not have been partners with them in the blood of the Prophets.

31 So then ye be witnesses unto yourselves, that ye are the children of them that murdered the Prophets.

32 [ac]Fulfill ye also the measure of your fathers.

33 O serpents, the generation of vipers, how should ye escape the damnation of [ad]hell!

34 [ae]Wherefore behold, I send unto you Prophets, and wise men, and Scribes, and of them ye shall kill and crucify: and of them shall ye scourge in your Synagogues, and persecute from city to city,

35 [af]That upon you may come all the righteous blood that was shed upon the earth, from the blood of Abel the righteous, unto the blood of Zechariah the son of [ag]Berechiah, whom ye slew between the Temple and the altar.

36 Verily I say unto you, all these things shall come upon this generation.

37 [ah]Jerusalem, Jerusalem, which killest the Prophets, and stonest them which are sent to thee, how often would I have [ai]gathered thy children together, as the hen gathered her chickens under her wings, and ye would not!

38 Behold, your habitation shall be left unto you desolate.

39 For I say unto you, ye shall not see me henceforth till that ye say, Blessed is he that cometh in the Name of the Lord.
