Gen 3:15 And I will put enmity Between you and the woman, And between your seed and her Seed; He shall bruise your head,
And you shall bruise His heel.”
Gen 12:3 I will bless those who bless you, And I will curse him who curses you; And in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.”
Rev 13:8 All who dwell on the earth will worship him, whose names have not been written in the Book of Life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.
I am shocked that this was not picked up already by any one. As we can see from the passages above, Yeshua was the seed that HaShem told Satan about. in Gen 3. May don't think about this, why I am not sure, After all, is this not what we should be finding of interest. To think that HaShem had already set this plan in action, before man was even on this earth.
He know, that we would never find salvation on our own. He know that the first system would be corrupted by man, and there was need for one that man had nothing to do with. Yet in His loving kindness, He gave man a chance to show that we are not all bad. What did man do with that? The same thing most men do with everything, we looked for a way to make money off it. Even if it meant cheating.
I have no intention of getting into that at all, as I simply don't like to bash folks for what they do. It is not our job to judge man, that is in His hands.
Yet,
1Co 6:3 Do you not know that we shall judge angels? How much more, things that pertain to this life?
Now do we really think we have the right to stand in judgment over angels? I know that is a bit off topic, yet by the end of this study I will ask this once more. Only next time, I will be giving my thoughts on this one. Hint, it is not what many may think.

not sure if its been mentioned yet but there are illusions to Revelation 12:
Gen 3:15 And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.
Rev 12:9 And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.
Rev 12:17 And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.

must be one of those 'valleys' that the prophets didn't see. 
so, imo, from the time Israel goes into captivity around 600 bce until 1948 they don't really 'posses' the land, though they often live in it.
also big question in my mind is whether the present nation of Israel is actually Israel, since they maybe don't have a son of David on the throne.

Gen 13:1 Then Abram went up from Egypt, he and his wife and all that he had, and Lot with him, to the South.
Gen 13:2 Abram was very rich in livestock, in silver, and in gold.
Some say that Abram got this wealth from Pharaoh. though it is made clear that some of it may well have come from there, we can't be so sure that all of it had. After all we are never told what Abram left his home with.
Gen 13:5 Lot also, who went with Abram, had flocks and herds and tents.
Gen 13:6 Now the land was not able to support them, that they might dwell together, for their possessions were so great that they could not dwell together.
Gen 13:8 So Abram said to Lot, “Please let there be no strife between you and me, and between my herdsmen and your herdsmen; for we are brethren.
Gen 13:10 And Lot lifted his eyes and saw all the plain of Jordan, that it was well watered everywhere (before the LORD destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah) like the garden of the LORD, like the land of Egypt as you go toward Zoar.
Gen 13:11 Then Lot chose for himself all the plain of Jordan, and Lot journeyed east. And they separated from each other.
Now at first this may well have seemed like a good idea. After all, by what is said here, Lot picked the land that wouls best fill his needs, and let his flocks and herds grow in umber. However I bet he was wishing he could turn back the hands of time, so he could have a do over. We are not told flat out that Lot lost everything he had, yet as he was rushed away from Sodom, it does not seem as though he had time to get his things together.

[TD] Gen 13:14 And the LORD said to Abram, after Lot had separated from him: “Lift your eyes now and look from the place where you are—northward, southward, eastward, and westward;
Gen 13:15 “for all the land which you see I give to you and your descendants forever.
Gen 13:16 “And I will make your descendants as the dust of the earth; so that if a man could number the dust of the earth, then your descendants also could be numbered.
Gen 13:17 “Arise, walk in the land through its length and its width, for I give it to you.”
Gen 13:18 Then Abram moved his tent, and went and dwelt by the terebinth trees of Mamre, which are in Hebron, and built an altar there to the LORD.
Having been to Israel, and ridden in a bus, (not walked) the land from top to bottom, and east to west. That my friends would be a lot of walking. Abram would need more than one pair of saddles for that let me tell you. There is one thing I made note of when I was their. When entering any land under Muslim control, there was hardly anything growing. Yet when the land was under Jewish control, there was no shortage of crops, tree, and in some paces grass. Yet at the same time, one can't help to note the stark difference in what you see, and how it seen for the eyes of the Bible.
We also may note that here the land is given to his descendants, FOREVER. I asked a question above, that I was in real hopes of getting an answer to. Yet like myself, it seems there is not to be found.
This is the reason I asked. If the land is Israels, forever, why then do they work so hard to keep from pulling the land under their control, with the Temple mount and all?
If you follow replacement theology, you may have learned that HaShem remove Israel, and replaced them with the church. That this is why there is a church on the Temple mount, and no one wants it removed. Yet at the same time, when you stand on the Temple mount, there is a church, yet it is really more a mosque. Though at one time, both the dome of the rock, and the mosque, were turned into churchs, they didn't last all that long. Around 100 years if that. So even though you may hear there is a church up there, that is misleading. It is done to help make the PLO look more kind and carting.

on the subject of copyrights,

the only bummer is that he does the Yahweh thing instead of following the pattern of the apostles.

I don't think I understand what you mean. Though Yahway is not the right way to say HaShems name, the apostles would have spoken Hebrew, and hens would have used the Hebrew name. Although I do use the Hebrew title,( as HaShem is not a name) I also know that this is just out of habit. Like I have said many times in my life, HaShem knows all the languages on earth, so He knows if we are speaking of him or not.
must be one of those 'valleys' that the prophets didn't see.
so, imo, from the time Israel goes into captivity around 600 bce until 1948 they don't really 'posses' the land, though they often live in it.

Wheren't the Apostles Jewish? Being as they lived as Jewish people, and used Hebrew as their first language, how can we say they didn't follow Jewish tradition, to a large %. After all, it was their life, what they did before Yeshua, and for many I am sure it was their life after as well.
Like you I see no reason to try to force others to follow a habit that comes from Years of study under the Rabbi's I have spent time under. After as I said, HaShem created all languages on earth, He also knows ones heart. So He does know what we say, no matter what words are used.

I have seen many times where people try to say the people in Israel now are not from the family of Abraham. They use many things to show this, yet as DNA is used to find out if a person is or isn't, that has dropped off a lot.
Israel is what it is. They are His people, no matter what they do with government.
