The Journey Continues
The two Old Testament verses of Leviticus 9:10 and Leviticus 9:19 deal with burnt offerings, altars, and other words mentioned earlier like kidneys and livers . If evil fooled the Eve with words, could we also be deceived through similar tactics?
Who will seek the whole truth?
First verse Leviticus 9:10: “But the fat, and the kidneys, and the caul above the liver of the sin offering, he burnt upon the altar; as the LORD commanded Moses.”
But the fat, is from the Hebrew word cheleb, בלח, [Chet, Lamed, Beit] with the Strong's number 02459[1], translated fat 79 times, fatness 4, best 5, finest twice, grease, and marrow. It is defined 1) fat... 1c) choicest, best part, abundance (of products of the land).
Somewhere between 700AD and 900AD the same three letters בלח split and became what we see as Strong's 02460[2], the name Cheleb, בלח, which was defined as "milk" and also became the word Chalab, בלח, numbered 02461[3] translated milk 42 times, cheeses and sucking once each.
Does cheleb mean abundance in general or fat? Is milk a metaphor for prosperity as we see in the land of milk and honey?
The phrase and the kidneys is from kilyah, הילכ [kaf, Lamed, Yod, Hei], numbered 03629[4], and is translated kidney 18 times. It is translated reins 13 times. The "reins" and the "heart" are often mentioned together, as denoting the whole moral constitution of man. If we say someone has a lot of heart we know that we are referring to his capacity to love not the capacity of the pump in his chest.
The word kilyah is from kily, ילכ[5], translated vessel 166 times, instrument 39, and weapon 21 times, but also jewel 21 times, stuff 14, thing 11, armour 10, furniture 7, carriage 3, bag twice with 13 other miscellaneous translations. It is also from the word kalah, הלכ[6], translated consume 57 times, end 44, but also, finish 20 times, fail 18, accomplish 12, done 9, spend 8, ended 7, determined 4, away 3, fulfil 3, fainteth, destroy, left, waste twice each, again with 13 other miscellaneous translations.
I include these common examples of just how much translators can redefine words and sentences by the variations they have available. But we may also see how the meaning of the letters can help us see the truth.
Other words formed from the two letters kaf, Lamed, are kol, לכ[7], said to mean “all” or koll, ללכ[8], defined as “perfect”. The Hebrew letters had meanings from the beginning and words were composed based on these original concepts. If you replace the letter Hey in reins with an Alef the word becomes imprison which is not a man in control but a man controlled. The word kilyah, הילכ , has to do with reins, the power of choice or control. The Hey at the end usually refers to some thing.
The words and the caul are translated from yatharth, (תרתי) [Yod, Tav, Reish, Tav] numbered 03508[9] in Strong's and has the meaning appendage, overhang, protrusion. It is from the word yathar, (רתי), numbered 03498[10] and translated leave 52 times, remain 23, rest 12, remainder 4, remnant 4, reserved 3, residue 3, but also plenteous twice, behind, excel, much, preserve once each. The same three letters of the Hebrew (רתי) has Strong's number 03499 and is also translated rest 63 times, remnant 14, residue 8, but also leave 4 times, excellency 3, withs 3, cord, exceeding, excellent, more, plentifully, and string once each; And it is the same as the three-letter word Yether (יֶתֶר) numbered 03500[11] and translated as the name Jethro said to mean abundance.
The word caul appears to be the leftover or extra from the Liver which is yet to be discussed and may have nothing to do with the liver of an animal but a surprisingly different meaning.
The word above appears in several different forms min [Mem, Nun] ןמ , or min-nee’ [Mem, Nun, Yod] ינמ . These letter combinations are translated as among, with, from, that not, since, after, at, by, whether; as well as the word of 31 times, from 29 times, part 6 times, and even the word I 4 times, me 3, before 3, after, because, Therefore, out, for, than, and partly twice each, but also stringed instrument, whereby. And if that is not enough to cause concern it is translated into 19 other words.
The Liver
The words the liver is from kabed, דבכ, [Kaf, Beit, Dalet] identified with the Strong's number 03516[12], and is translated liver 14 times but when it is from the same word kabad, דבכ, numbered 03513[13] it is translated honour 34 times, glorify 14, honourable 14, heavy 13, harden 7, glorious 5, sore 3, made heavy 3, chargeable, great, many, heavier, promote twice each, with 10 other miscellaneous translations. It is given the meaning 1) to be heavy, be weighty, be grievous, be hard, be rich, be honourable, be glorious, be burdensome, be honoured.
The word דבכ kabad[13] is the same word for honor we see in Exodus 20:12 “Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee.”
Kabed and Kabad are actually both the same exact Hebrew letters דבכ KafBeitDelath.
- Kaf may mean something like “The Power to Actualize Potential”.
- Beit is said to mean “God’s Dwelling Place”.
- Dalet is associated with the idea of Selflessness – Charity
The same three letters word דבכ is given the Strong's number 03514 and are translated heavy twice and grievousness or great number once each. It is defined as “weight, heaviness, mass, great... mass, abundance...
The same exact three letters word דבכ which we see as liver appears as Strong's number 3515 translated great 8 times, grievous 8, heavy 8, sore 4, hard 2, much 2, slow 2, and hardened, heavier, laden, thick once each. It is defined with the meanings “heavy, great, massive, abundant, numerous, dull, hard, difficult, burdensome, very oppressive, numerous, rich.”
How can the same word that means liver also mean heavy, hardened, honour, glorious, chargeable, sore, grievous, slow or thick, etc.?
So are we exhausted in our adventure down the rabbit hole of the Sophistry in language land where words can mean what the translators want them to mean?
Who has the power, you or the clerics of confusion?
What shall God write upon your heart and mind with the power of the Holy Spirit at this the journey's beginning or end?
