In the
following excerpt first the
English
translation of the Aramaic
is presented in All Capital
Letters and then in smaller
print the commentary is
presented.
JOHN WAS
CLOTHED WITH A GARMENT OF
ROPE
FIBER THAT WAS FASTENED AS A
LOIN CLOTH ON
THE BARE SKIN OF HIS LOINS;
AND HIS
FOOD WAS THE FRUIT OF THE
LOCUST
AND THE NECTAROUS SWEET
FRUITS OF THE
WILDERNESS.
Luke uses the
verb, HUTh, which means the
Wisdom of
God was made unto, effected
or realized on behalf of
John.
As Mark explains, John was
clothed with a
garment of rope fiber, a
coarse but durable fabric
used
for sackcloth made from palm
fibers resembling camel
hair, used for strong ropes
which gives the allegory of
appearance and the real
nature of the material,
since as
a Nazarite, John cannot
touch a corpse.
His food
likewise is not of dead
animal nature, not of
insects of the grasshopper
family or locusts, but
rather from the locust tree
or carob, which replaced
bread in John's diet, so as
to be commonly known as St.
John's Bread. The honey of
the wilderness, is not of
bees but a
synonym for nectarous sweet
fruits like figs, dates,
carob and such.
His
sandals had no straps since
he would not wear dead
animal skins, but rather
sandals woven from the rope
fiber, which is written
identical to "camel hair"
with same fiber strings.
His Jesus
remains quite intangible,
altho dwelling in his
Presence. He is baptizing
them only to initiate the
people's new path to reform
their lives, to repent or
turn around and relive their
lives in purity, free from
their former sins. While to
others this life appears
penitential living in
sackcloth and eating what
the wilderness provides, to
men,
Christ's gospel is presented
as if the Son of Man were a
wine-bibber and a glutton.
I AM THE LIVING FOOD BECAUSE
I CAME DOWN
FROM HEAVEN. IF ANYONE EATS
OF THIS FOOD,
HE SHALL LIVE FOREVER; AND
THE FOOD WHICH I
GIVE, IS MY BODY, WHICH I
GIVE FOR THE SAKE
OF LIFE IN THE WORLD.
THE JEWS ARGUED ONE WITH
ANOTHER, SAYING,
HOW CAN THIS MAN GIVE US HIS
BODY TO EAT?
JESUS SAID TO THEM, VERILY,
VERILY, I SAY
UNTO YOU, UNLESS YOU EAT THE
BODY OF THE
SON OF MAN, AND DRINK HIS
BLOOD, YOU HAVE
NO LIFE IN YOURSELVES.
HE WHO EATS OF MY BODY, AND
DRINKS OF MY
BLOOD, HAS LIFE EVERLASTING
AND I WILL RAISE
HIM AT THE LAST DAY.
FOR MY BODY TRULY IS
NOURISHMENT AND MY
BLOOD IS A DRINK. HE WHO
EATS MY BODY AND
DRINKS MY BLOOD, WILL ABIDE
WITH ME, AND I
WITH HIM.
JUST AS THE LIVING FATHER
SENT ME, I AM
LIVING BECAUSE OF THE
FATHER, SO WHO EATS
ME, WILL ALSO LIVE BECAUSE
OF ME.
THIS IS THE FOOD WHICH CAME
DOWN FROM
HEAVEN; IT IS NOT LIKE THAT
MANNA WHICH
YOUR FOREFATHERS ATE AND
DIED; HE WHO
EATS OF THIS FOOD SHALL LIVE
FOREVER.
IT IS THE SPIRIT THAT GIVES
LIFE; THE BODY
PROFITS NOTHING. THE WORDS
WHICH I HAVE
SPOKEN TO YOU ARE SPIRIT AND
LIFE. BUT
THERE ARE OF YOU SOME WHO DO
NOT
BELIEVE.
First of all
in the above quotations we
have translated
"living bread" as living
food, which is not baked,
cooked
or frozen like bread and
other foods. Outside his
Bible,
Lamsa recognizes that bread
is a synonym, food, as is
seen from the Lord's prayers
since most of us would
not want to ask God for
bread specifically.
Second,
the Peshitta pure
translation has not "flesh",
but rather that His Divine
Body is to be eaten, as is
not
the case in the Catholic and
King James versions.
Flesh in
Aramaic is a word that
identifies with despicable,
condemned or sinful so why
would an Aramaic speaking
Savior tell us to eat of
flesh, the condemned food?
However, there is an
invisible Presence, which is
called Life, in all living
things, and Jesus says He is
that Way, the Truth and
the Life.
This is
what his body refers to as
an immaterial substance or
universal divine body of a
spiritual nature. Jesus
illustrated how a dead body
can be resurrected to Life,
and thus He identified with
the Resurrection and Life.
The body profits nothing
from dead, cooked food,
since it lacks this
spiritual vitality.
As we
said before, Grape blood is
the blood of the
Living Jesus, the Living
God, which is Living Water
only
shortly after it is pressed,
unfermented. The rule of the
Nazarites forbids wine and
other alcoholic drinks,
cooked grape syrup and
raisins.
The
prophesied or
expected of nations washes
or lustrated his body
raiment with the blood of
the grape (Gen.49:11), so
his
baptism is with "living
water" as all ancient
documents
refer to as the lustration
taught by the Living God,
Jesus.
Formerly the
Church claimed that with the
consecration
and transubstantiation of
the bread and wine, the
priest's words gave life to
the Sacred Host. But that
life
was momentary, only 15
minutes after its reception.
This in theory should have
created enzymes and
vitamins making the host
into Living Bread as
preached
of Jesus.
Enzymes
and vitamins are radiations,
solar
energy concentrated and
vitalized in all living
things.
The enzymes and vitamins
pass thru the human body
unassimilated, eliminated by
the intestines, but they
emanate the substance of
Life Everlasting, the
Salvation of the Living
Jesus.
"Blessed
are they who wash their
robes that they may have a
right to the Tree of Life,
and that by the gates they
may enter into the city"
(Apoc.22:14) of God or
Paradise. "Let him who
thirsts come, and he who
wishes, let him receive the
Living Water freely."
(22:17)
Enzymes and vitamin's are
Life Emanations that heal
the corpse or body, and give
man unlimited Spiritual
Potential. The Spirit gives
Life, and if our food and
drink
comes from living
nourishment of the living
Trees of
God's Paradise, Jesus' words
will bear Spirit and Life.
St.
John's Bread or carob, the
fruit of the Locust, is
John's Living Bread uncooked
and unprepared by man
cast down from living fruit
trees that spread up toward
heaven.
The words
HaRUBA, carob, and HRUReA
are
from the same root, meaning
the Savior's Living Bread
or Salvation and are
identical to what the son of
man,
John the Baptist and Apostle
ate.
In the Healing God Spell of
Saint John, which we also
translated, is an Essene
book also referred to as the
Essene Gospel of John, which
shows that Jesus lived
and taught uncooked living
foods and natural methods
of healing.
