We would like to show you something interesting concerning the Fruits of the Spirit, that may be a surprise to you. We are talking, of course, about Galatians 5:17-23. Now concerning the apostle Paul, we believe Paul was well acquainted with the Dead Sea Scrolls, and we also believe that Paul indeed spent time with priests in Qumran, that were known as the Zadok Priestly line, which Left Jerusalem, because they refused to change from the Zadok, Enoch, Jubilees, Luminary calendar to the Lunar Solar calendar. There are those, even in well respected ministries in the Torah Movement that proclaim that the people in Qumran were Essene's, but recent archaeological evidence has indeed dispelled that theory with facts that prove that the residence of Qumran were actually, The Zadok Priestly Line. For more information on these facts, please read the archaeological book, titled, Qumran In Context, by Yizhar Hirschfeld.
Ezekiel 44:15-16
15 “But the kohenim, the Lĕwites, the sons of Tsaḏoq, who guarded the duty of My Miqdash when the children of Yisra’ĕl went astray from Me, they shall draw near to Me to serve Me, and shall stand before Me to bring to Me the fat and the blood,” declares the Aḏon Yahuah.
16 “They shall enter My Miqdash, and they shall draw near to My table to serve Me, and they shall guard My charge.
Not only did the Zadok Priestly Line NOT go astray, they kept the charge of Yahuah and relocating to Qumran to continue the priestly order, when they had to leave Jerusalem because they refused to change to a corrupt lunisolar Calendar, which still exists to this day. The Zadok Calendar is a Luminary Calendar which means the Zadok calendar is a Sun, Moon, and Stars, Calendar. Don’t listen to those who proclaim the Zadok calendar to be a Sun Worship calendar. Those proclaiming such atrocities, are simply unstudied concerning the the truth of the Zadok Calendar. Please do Yah a favor, and Study to be approved.
Now, concerning this study, we will present not only Paul’s version of the Fruits of the Spirit, which implies that there is another version. Therefore, we will also show just exactly where Paul obtained information concerning the fruits of the spirit. With this in mind, lets get into the study by reading: Galatians 5:17-23:
Galatians 5:17-23
17 For the flesh lusts against the Ruaḥ, and the Ruaḥ against the flesh. And these are opposed to each other, so that you do not do what you desire to do.
18 But if you are led by the Ruaḥ, you are not under Torah.
19 And the works of the flesh are well-known, which are: adultery, whoring, uncleanness, indecency,
20 idolatry, drug sorcery, hatred, quarrels, jealousies, fits of rage, selfish ambitions, dissensions, factions,
21 envy, murders, drunkenness, wild parties, and the like - of which I forewarn you, even as I also said before, that those who practise such as these shall not inherit the reign of Elohim.
22 But the fruit of the Ruaḥ is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, trustworthiness,
23 gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no Torah.
Please pay attention to the last statement, " Against Such There Is No Torah" Statement, which only the wise seem to be able to understand. We all see here that there are bad fruits and there are good fruits. As we reflect on our own lives, we can see exactly where each of us stands with our Elohim. Now lets get to the Writings of Elijah 11:1 through 12:5, to get a major surprise. That being, Just Exactly Where Paul Got his Information concerning the Fruits of the Spirit. Lets read on.
WRITINGS OF ĔLIYAHU 11:1-12:5
11:1 These are the fruits of the Elohim of the Ruaḥoth: enlightenment whereby a man can perceive the Ways of Elohim to walk therein, discernment to know the good from the evil, reverence for the Name of Yahuah and consciousness of the approaching judgments of Elohim, humility, patience, abundant charity, love of righteousness, vision, wisdom, trust, faith, confidence in the power of the Almighty Elohim, knowledge, self-mastery, sanctity, pure thoughts, abounding love for all who follow the truth, purity, modesty and the ability to hide within oneself the secrets of Elohim which one has received.
2 All these things come unto men in this world through communion with the Ruaḥ of truth.
3 All those who walk in that path which is set before them by the Ruaḥ of truth shall receive health in their navel and marrow to their bones and shall find wisdom and hidden treasures of knowledge.
4 These shall inherit eternal lives, even the continuation of the seeds forever and ever, worlds without end.
5 Eternal shall be their bireḵoth and everlasting their joy in the realms of glory, for they shall be crowned with light and robed in glory and shall dwell in everlasting burnings in the presence of our Elohim.
12:1 With the wicked it is not so, for the fruits of wickedness are greed, malice, falsehood, pride, presumption, deception, guile, insolence, unrighteous anger, folly, arrogance, lewdness, unchastity, blasphemies, selfishness, blindness of the eyes, deafness of the ears, stiffness of neck and hardness of heart.
2 Such men walk entirely in the ways of darkness and all their works are evil and abominable in the eyes of Elohim.
3 Those who walk in the paths of evil shall receive a multitude of afflictions at the hands of the qodesh messengers.
4 These are the sons of Perdition who are subject to the wrath of Elohim through all eternity.
5 Eternal horror is their end and perpetual reproach, even the disgrace of final annihilation in the fire, for they shall dwell in outer darkness until their end which
is extinction without remnant or survival and after this, their lot no man knoweth nor is it revealed to any man save those who are made partakers thereof.
Alright, now, let’s discuss where the Book of Elijah gets a witness. That’s right, a witness. That being, The Dead Sea Scrolls. Let’s take a look at “A New Translation” by: Wise Abegg and Cook, Page 120, Titled: “Charter of a Jewish Sectarian Association”, also known as “The Community Rule”.
CHARTER OF A JEWISH SECTARIAN ASSOCIATION, page 120, “A New Translation” Dead Sea Scrolls by: Wise Abegg and cook. 1QS, 4Q255-264a, 5Q11, Col. 3:21- Col. 4:5
21 The authority of the Angel of Darkness further extends to the
22 corruption of all the righteous. All their sins, iniquities, shameful and rebellious deeds are at his prompting,
23 a situation God in His mysteries allows to continue until His era dawns. Moreover, all the afflictions of the righteous, and
24 every trial in its season, occur because of this Angel's diabolic rule. All the spirits allied with him share but a single resolve: to cause the Sons of Light to stumble. Yet the God of Israel (and the Angel of His Truth) assist all
25 the Sons of Light. It is actually He who created the spirits of light and darkness, making them the cornerstone of every deed, their impulses the premise of every action. God's love for one spirit
Col. 4:1 lasts forever. He will be pleased with its actions for always. The counsel of the other, however, He abhors, hating its every impulse for all time.
2 Upon earth their operations are these: one enlightens a man's mind, making straight before him the paths of true righteousness and causing his heart
3 to fear the laws of God. This spirit engenders humility, patience, abundant compassion, perpetual goodness, insight, understanding, and powerful wisdom resonating to each
4 of God's deeds, sustained by His constant faithfulness. It engenders a spirit knowledgeable in every plan of action, zealous for the laws of righteousness, holy
5 in its thoughts, and steadfast in purpose. This spirit encourages plenteous compassion upon all who hold fast to truth, and glorious purity combined with visceral hatred of impurity in its every guise. It results in humble deportment
6 allied with a general discernment, concealing the truth, that is, the mysteries of knowledge. To these ends is the earthly counsel of the spirit to those whose nature yearns for truth. Through a gracious visitation all who walk in this spirit will know
7 healing, bountiful peace, long life, and multiple progeny, followed by eternal blessings and perpetual joy through life everlasting. They will receive a
8 crown of glory with a robe of honor, resplendent forever and ever.
9 The operations of the spirit of falsehood result in greed, neglect of righteous deeds, wickedness, lying, pride and haughtiness, cruel deceit and fraud,
10 massive hypocrisy, a want of self-control and abundant foolishness, a zeal for arrogance, abominable deeds fashioned by whorish desire, lechery in its filthy manifestation, a reviling
11 tongue, blind eyes, deaf ears, stiff neck, and hard heart to the end of walking in all the ways of darkness and evil cunning. The judgment
12 of all who walk in such ways will be multiple afflictions at the hand of all the angels of perdition, everlasting damnation in the wrath
13 of God's furious vengeance, never-ending terror and reproach for all eternity, with a shameful extinction in the fire of Hell's outer darkness. For all their eras, generation by generation, they will know doleful sorrow, bitter
14 evil, and dark happenstance, until their utter destruction with neither remnant nor rescue.
After reading this entry in the “Community Rule”, or “Charter of a Jewish Sectarian Association”, it, again, becomes evident that the Apostle Paul, was well acquainted with the “Writings of Elijah”. Not only that, but the “Community Rule” and the “Writings of Elijah”, also known as “Order of the Ancients”, are actually, one and the same. I actually learned this from Tina Black’s, Fight For Truth, Community Rule, Part 1, and Community Rule, Part 2. There is even more, Since we see a clear link to the Writings of Elijah and the Community Rule, and the writings of Paul (Fruits of the Spirit), Lets continue with this study by adding another likeness, that being, the Likeness between the Writings of Elijah 17 & Matthew 18:15-20, to show that Matthew was also very much aware of the Writings of Elijah, and like Paul, Matthew was also aware of the Zadok Priestly Line which resided in Qumran.
With that being said, lets begin this next segment with the "Writings of Elijah, or ĔLIYAHU", chapter 17 which is also known as "The Order of the Ancients", and is found in the book,
"A New Translation", Dead Sea Scrolls by: Wise, Abegg and Cook. In this book, it is known as, "Charter of a Jewish Sectarian Association", or "The Community Rule", in other versions of the DSS. lets compare the "Writings of Elijah, or ĔLIYAHU" Chapter 17, with Matthew 18:15-20. What we aim to understand here is this: Matthew obtained this information in Matthew 18:15-20, from "The Writings of Elijah, which further validates the Dead Sea Scrolls. Lets get started with "The Writings of Elijah", Chapter 17.
- The Writings of Elijah, Chapter 17 [Yah Scriptures]
- 17 : 1 When any member of the community has been offended by another or observes another in wrongdoing, he is not to come against that erring one with a railing accusation, but is to approach him truthfully, humbly and humanely.
- 17 : 2 A qodesh person of Elohim must not bear hatred in his heart toward his brother.
- 17 : 3 If the offender will not hear his complaint, then he is to take with him two of the teachers to reason with him.
- 17 : 4 If the offender will not hear them, then he is to be called before the Kohĕn ha’Gadol and his brethren who are set as judges in Yisra’ĕl.
- 17 : 5 This will all disputations be settled in order, without anger or emotion, that peace and harmony and unity may be preserved in Yisra’ĕl.
- 17 : 6 Furthermore, no man is to bring a charge publicly against his brother except he prove it by witnesses, for in the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every charge be established.
Those of you that are familiar with Matthew 18:15-20, probably have bells and whistles going off in your head right now, because you already know where this is going with this short study. Lets go ahead and add Matthew 18:15-20 to the mix.
- Matthew 18:15-20 [Yah Scriptures]
- 15 “And if your brother sins against you, go and reprove him, between you and him alone. If he hears you, you have gained your brother.
- 16 “But if he does not hear, take with you one or two more, that ‘by the mouth of two or three witnesses every word might be established.’
- 17 “And if he refuses to hear them, say it to the assembly. And if he refuses even to hear the assembly, let him be to you like a gentile and a tax collector.
- 18 “Truly, I say to you, whatever you bind on earth shall be having been bound in the shamayim, and whatever you loosen on earth shall be having been loosened in the shamayim.
- 19 “Again I say to you that if two of you agree on earth concerning any matter that they ask, it shall be done for them by My Father in the shamayim.
- 20 “For where two or three are gathered together in My Name, there I am in their midst.”
It is our belief at this time, that Matthew was influenced by the writings of Elijah, which is evidenced by the very same writings found in the Dead Sea Scrolls, "Charter of a Jewish Sectarian Association". Matthew, the Tax Collector, was very much acquainted with the scrolls that ended up in the caves in Qumran. The thing to remember concerning the Dead Sea Scrolls is, Much of it is missing, however, even with that being said, I see hints of this scripture within the "Charter of a Jewish Sectarian Association", in the Dead Sea Scrolls, right here on Page 124 of "A New Translation" DSS.
- Page 124 of "A New Translation" DSS "Charter of a Jewish Sectarian Association"
- Each man is to reprove 25 his fellow in truth, humility and loving-kindness. He should not speak to him in anger, with grumbling, 26 with a [stiff] neck or with a wickedly zealous] spirit. He must not hate him because of his own [uncircumcised] heart. Most assuredly he is to rebuke him on the day of the infraction so that he does not Col. 6 Continue in sin. Also, no man is to bring a charge against his fellow before the general membership unless he has previously rebuked that man before witnesses.
The similarities are very clear, and this cannot be ignored. The Writings of Elijah 17, Matthew 18:15-20 and the "Charter of a Jewish Sectarian Association", page 124, agree. That's our take on it. We hope you enjoy this blog.
