TORAH
The opening phrase of this parsha literally does not mean take a census, it means lift up the head. In Ki Tisa we looked at the significance of having your head lifted up. It is of paramount importance to be counted as one of YHWH's people. There will be two groups of people:
In the Hebrew, when it says "give a census" it means "lift up the heads." Head means "gulgoleth". Gulgoleth means skull. Yeshua was crucified on Golgotha/Gulgoleth the place of the skull. If you want to be counted as one of the sons that go free, who have their ransoms paid, then you must come to the place of the skull where Jesus was crucified. If you want to be counted as one of the sons of God and go free, you must have a ransom paid by the lifting up your your head. You must come to Golgotha (skull/head). Our ransom has already been paid at Golgotha. Are you willing to accept it? The price that was paid at Gulgoleth was the price that was required for your head to be counted a son of the children of Israel. If you do not take it, it will require your actual physical head. The message is clear: take up your cross and follow Him to the place of the skull.
Who are you following? YHWH the God of Abraham, Issac and Jacob? Or a god of your own making - one who thinks like you, talks like you and who condones your lifestyle choice. Is this god a god who challenges only just enough to get you believing you are following the real deal - a god offering a comfortable level of conviction drowned in a mire of self-congratulations?
The role of the Danite super soldiers in the Black Awakening is to judge and slaughter God's people that have not been sealed. These peopled are the ones that cannot be numbered and are dying for Yeshua because they did not purify themselves in His entire word. Here is a prophecy that is coming soon. These that have the mark of God and refuse the mark of the Beast are the 144000.
"Then he cried in my ears with a loud voice, saying, Cause those who are in charge of the city to draw near, every man with his destroying weapon in his hand. 2 Behold, six men came from the way of the upper gate, which lies toward the north, every man with his slaughter weapon in his hand; and one man in the middle of them clothed in linen, with a writer’s inkhorn by his side. They went in, and stood beside the bronze altar. 3 The glory of the God of Israel was gone up from the cherub, whereupon it was, to the threshold of the house: and he called to the man clothed in linen, who had the writer’s inkhorn by his side. 4 Yahweh said to him, Go through the middle of the city, through the middle of Jerusalem, and set a mark on the foreheads of the men that sigh and that cry over all the abominations that are done within it. 5 To the others he said in my hearing, Go through the city after him, and strike: don’t let your eye spare, neither have pity; 6 kill utterly the old man, the young man and the virgin, and little children and women; but don’t come near any man on whom is the mark: and begin at my sanctuary. Then they began at the old men that were before the house. 7 He said to them, “Defile the house, and fill the courts with the slain. Go out!” Ezekiel 9:1-7
It does not say that those that are marked should feel puffed up and self righteous. Nor does it say to mark those that try and justify and defend those that part take in the abominations and say how nice they are - the ones that say it is okay to walk in disobedience.
No. Those that are marked were broken people. Broken hearted made whole. It is those that sigh and cry for all the abominations that are done around them.
Everything about Scripture tells us that He is looking for a people that will love Him. The covenant we have with Him is a betrothal covenant - think about that - why does He want us to be joined to Him in that way - what He is telling us of His intentions for us and His exceptions of us.
Appearing before and gazing into the manifest presence one by one, each man was called upon to abandon the ways he had practised and the self-image he acquired in Egypt. What happened as a consequence was a supernatural restoration of each man to his family, his clan, his tribe and his birthright. We have an identity.
Who have you been all your life? All your time in Egypt, who have you become? What has defined you? Are you ready to take on your true identity in YHWH's holy nation? Or do you want to remain in Egypt and miss out on what YHWH has planned for your life. Thew greatest cruse is the blessing you are not aware of. To be blessed is to be released from the restrictions and limitations and sadly that is what our world places us - YHWH does not want us to be held back from our true identity, from being the person He would have us be.
We are grafted in one of the 12 tribes. It is exciting to ponder on which one we might go into!
From 30 to 50 is the time period (mid life) YHWH wants us to fully work for Him. If we do not, we have a mid life crisis. I still have 13 years to wait.
'put out' gives a negative impression, however the Hebrew suggest otherwise. When it says to 'put out' the lepers is better translated as 'let go'. So it is not 'put them out', it is 'let them go' as in let them go free.
Dealing with a lack of respect for the personal space, dignity, reputation, relationships and property of others, YHWH takes offences when we commit against each other very, very seriously.
YHWH's justice makes our justice system look unjust. If a sin is committed, the process involves confession and making restitution with a 20% surcharge. If the guilty do pay these things, even though they have sinned they are forgiven and released form further punishment. If the guilty do not do these things prescribed by Torah and is found guilty by the concession of two or three witnesses, the punishment provided by Torah for the offence in question are to be applied to him by the community. See the study Mishpatim.
This is where the "restore fourfold" from the Zaccheus story comes from. What Zaccheus did was he extracted his taxes against sheep and apparently, he was acknowledging that he had not just taken the sheep inadvertently (which in this case a confession and making restitution with a 20% surcharge,) but had knowingly taken sheep which he knew were not rightfully his to take for taxes, and had killed or sold them - hence making the fourfold restitution provision given in Exodus 22:1 for stolen sheep applicable.
"If a man steals an ox or a sheep, and kills it, or sells it; he shall pay five oxen for an ox, and four sheep for a sheep."
YHWH is a jealous Elohim. Adultery is the spiritual picture for idolatry and idolatry ids putting ANYTHING in the place of your service to the Almighty. We are His bride. We need to be spotless. Do not abuse His grace and what He had to do for us.
Here in Numbers 5, it helps men that are suffering from cuckoldry to deal with the situation God's way. The seriousness of adultery cannot be overlooked because it is a picture of the Almighty and His bride.
Israel is always pictured a a cheating wife. The book of Hosea is all about this.
The jealous offering represents Yeshua's resurrection because He became the barley offering. The whole point of this offering is to bring her iniquity to remembrance. This entire ritual is about reconciliation. This only occurs until the adulterous bride comes to grips and confesses her sins. This is us!
Water is a picture of YHWH's word.
"that he might sanctify it, having cleansed it by the washing of water with the word," Ephesians 5:26
- 144000 - These have their ransom paid - Yeshua provides for them and they go free and no plague (YHWH's judgement) will come upon them.
- Christians - These are not taking YHWH's word seriously and are not counted as YHWH's people who have not had their ransom paid. These people will suffer from YHWH's plagues of the Tribulation that will befall them. They are not numbered and will have to die for Yeshua to be accepted.
In the Hebrew, when it says "give a census" it means "lift up the heads." Head means "gulgoleth". Gulgoleth means skull. Yeshua was crucified on Golgotha/Gulgoleth the place of the skull. If you want to be counted as one of the sons that go free, who have their ransoms paid, then you must come to the place of the skull where Jesus was crucified.

Did Yeshua take the curse of the adulterous wife onto Himself? Consider the following...
CRUCIFIXION:
The Roman form of crucifixion was not employed in the Old Testament by the Jewish people, as they saw crucifixion as one of the most horrible, cursed forms of death (Deuteronomy 21:23). In New Testament Bible times, the Romans used this tortuous method of execution as a means of exerting authority and control over the population.
Before nailing the victim to the cross, a mixture of vinegar, gall, and myrrh was usually offered to alleviate some of the victim's suffering. Wooden planks were usually fastened to the vertical stake as a footrest or seat, allowing the victim to rest his weight and lift himself for a breath, thus prolonging suffering and delaying death for up to three days. Unsupported, the victim would hang entirely from nail-pierced wrists, severely restricting breathing and circulation. This excruciating ordeal would lead to exhaustion, suffocation, brain death and heart failure. At times, mercy was shown by breaking the victim's legs, causing death to come quickly. He took our place as the adulterous bride to redeem us!
Colossians 2
King James Version (KJV)13 And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses;
14 Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross;
Why is the woman made to drink a second time? Perhaps the answer can be found in the Hebrew word afterward - (achar). This same word is used when referring to the End Times. So will the bride be made to drink the bitter waters a second time because she has acted unfaithfully towards her husband in the End Times? Those who are faithful will be unharmed but those who have gone after false gods will suffer.
The bitter water is like when the Golden Calf was smashed, Moses put the golden particles in water and the idolatrous (adulterous) Israelites have to drink as the unfaithful woman does.
Deuteronomy 9:21 gives us an elaborated version of the drinking of the water with the dust of the gold in it as a punishment.
"And I took your sin, the calf which ye had made, and burnt it with fire, and stamped it, and ground it very small, even until it was as small as dust: and I cast the dust thereof into the brook that descended out of the mount."Moses knew chemistry. Gold is insoluble in water. In fine powder it assumes a colloidal
The burning or the refinement of the gold of its impurities (sin). Stamping it reduces it to thin sheets because of the ductility of gold. The grinding becomes easy and the information tells us that Moses grounded it very fine, into dust in fact, reducing it into nano sized colloidal gold. By casting this into a brook would make the water turn blood red. The drink was not toxic because the impurities have been burned out and it in fact kills germs. The fact they all had to drink it so they can be forgiven for the that they did. Just like we need to drink the wine (Yeshua's blood) so we can be forgiven for our sins.
"Likewise also the cup after supper, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood, which is shed for you." Luke 22:20
To make matters worse, people mostly women were dancing naked. This erotic imagery suggests unfaithfulness and adultery.
It also connects to Wormwood (the Queen of Heaven/Semiramis) that comes down from Heaven making all the waters bitter. This Wormwood is believe is the Great Whore of Babylon and harlotry is connected to Numbers 5 and the bitter waters of unfaithful idolatry. I believe this is the goddess of all adultery due to the very good case in this video. It is a test to determine if someone is unfaithful. Wormwood is the personification of unfaithfulness so her presence is bitter. The drink wormwood in itself is bitter. The 144000 will be completely clean from this.
The word Nazarite means "an untamed, unpruned vine or tree." It come from the word Natsraim which is used to describe His bride.
- "A. Read Leviticus 21:10-12 again. What else in this passage is thematically related to the Nazirite vow? 44 That’s right! Both passages emphasize the head! The High Priest has the “consecration of the anointing oil of his God” upon his head and the Nazirite has his hair as the “crown of his God” upon his head. Thus we see that the hair of the Nazirite is thematically connected to the anointing oil of Adonai on the High Priest.
- B. Concerning the hair of the Nazirite, how else is it thematically related to the work of a priest? 45 Amazing! Do you see how the Torah has used these themes to connect the vow of the Nazirite to the priesthood, especially the work of the High Priest?
- C. Read Numbers 6:2-4. Can you think of a passage that is thematically related to this one involving the priests? 46 Once again, the Torah intentionally relates the Nazirite to the priesthood!
- D. What is the subject of the next few short Parshiot in Parashat Nasso (after the parsha about the Nazirite)? 47 Do you think it’s a coincidence that the Parshiot concerning the Nazirite and the Priestly blessing are found next to each other? Of course not.
- E. Note how the Nazirite is said to be Holy to the Lord in Numbers 6:7-8. Have you seen that phrase before? 48 This is truly amazing. Once again we see a strong thematic connection between the High Priesthood and the Nazirite!
- F. Read Numbers 6:13-21. Although many may think the lists of sacrifices enumerated in this passage are mundane, those of you who are beginning to utilize thematic analysis will now understand how the number and types of sacrifices can be used to shed light on a passage. We have encountered many lists of sacrifices that were offered for various reasons; however, have you ever seen a list of offerings similar to this one?49 Once again we see a connection between the Nazirite and the priesthood. Yes Adonai, we get the message ☺!
Joseph was also a Nazirite.
"The blessings of your father have prevailed above the blessings of your ancestors, above the boundaries of the ancient hills. They will be on the head of Joseph, on the crown of the head of him who is separated from his brothers." Genesis 49:26
"for the precious things of the earth and its fullness, the good will of him who lived in the bush. Let this come on the head of Joseph, on the crown of the head of him who was separated from his brothers." Deuteronomy 33:16
We can clearly see the connection through the usage of the phrase "on the head" and the concept of separation.
The purpose of the blessing of YHWH is to empower you and me to fulfil our divinely ordained purpose and succeed in our divinely ordained mission. The enemy comes along with the strategy of the sensual gratification message in order to conceal our Divinely ordained purpose from us and to thwart our divinely ordained mission.
"The Lord thy God in the midst of thee is mighty; he will save, he will rejoice over thee with joy; he will rest in his love, he will joy over thee with singing." Zephaniah 3:17
At the first Aaronic blessing, we do not hear the words like in this week's study but "Yahweh’s glory appeared to all the people. 24 Fire came out from before Yahweh, and consumed the burnt offering and the fat upon the altar. When all the people saw it, they shouted, and fell on their faces." Leviticus 9:23-24
So naturally when it was said a second time, it would made a profound impact on the people. Everyone who receives this blessing is changed, energised, empowered and enabled.
"You will thus place My name upon the descendants of Israel and i will bless them." Numbers 6:27
A name to a Hebrew contains/expresses the dominant characteristics and essence of the person or thing.
Yeshua said the Aaronic blessing:
"He led them out as far as Bethany, and he lifted up his hands, and blessed them." Luke 24:50 As it was done, the disciples would look up to see Yeshua floating high in the air.

Chapter 7 is the longest chapter in the Torah. Apparently encoded in chapter seven, are some frequencies, which regard a musical and harmonic scale or iambic meter.
2. Re = 417 =3 5. Sol = 741 = 3
3. Mi =528 =6 6. La = 852 = 6
Table shows the increasing frequencies encoded in modern Torahs and Bibles in NUMBERS, Ch. 7, verses 12-83. Initially encrypted by Levi priests who translated the original Torah into the Greek Septuagint, these six frequencies, apparently possess extraordinary spiritual power. Besides their link to the hymn to St. John the Baptist, and their likely association with creative and destructive events as detailed in the Bible, the third note - "MI" for "Miracles" or "528" - is the exact frequency used by genetic engineers throughout the world to repair DNA.
Chapter 7 is not in chronological order. It is all about the previous mouth when the Mish'kan was finally finished. For the tribes and clans that make up the camp, this day will be remembered as the day on which they were awakened to both tribal identity and tribal unity.
On that day, a full mouth before the events of Bamidbar and the first half of Naso. This is before the majority were aware from which tribe they were descended, those who did know produced, through joint labour and contributed with another tribe, carts, oxen with the framework, the curtains and the implements of the Mish'kan would be transported from Sinai through the desert - to the Promised Land. YHWH stirred something in their hearts.
The long chapter goes on to describe a 12-day long procession, wherein the redeemed community comes to the Mish'kan, one tribe at a time, bringing an identical series of gifts. Moses did not order at all. This movement was YHWH moving sovereignly in the hearts of the individuals in the camp. It is identity stirring.
Not only was a man to consider himself as part of his father's family, his great-grandfather's clan, and his ancestor's tribe, you see - he was also to acknowledge that he was part of a greater community of a reconstituted Israel in cohesion.
I do not know what tribe i may be in. But from my research i released Dan lived in Greece for long periods of time so i am not sure what happens if a Danite is actuality saved and seeks to do His will. I could possibly be in Ephraim or Joseph because i might not be ethnically related.
Is there a stirring in you? Are you staring to take your identity as Israel seriously? We must be a faithful wife, we must not flirt with the world or other gods.
In the End Days, we might be giving offerings to YHWH like in this chapter.
PROPHETS AND NEW TESTAMENT
Samson is from the tribe of Dan (the apostate tribe that will be Nimrod's 200 million man army.) There is so much here so i have some resources listed below. Lets dig in. For the full article, see The Antichrist's Danites - Super Soldiers, Heracles, Depopulation and Sparta
Regarding jealousy see Dan's prophecies in the Testament of Dan. I believe this predicts the Black Awakening. They want to create Super Soldier as strong as their patriarch Samson:
Hearken to my words, ye sons of Dan; and give heed to the words of your father.
3 I have proved in my heart, and in my whole life, that truth
with just dealing is good and well pleasing to God, and that lying and anger are evil, because they teach man all wickedness.
4 I confess, therefore, this day to you, my children, that in my heart I resolved on the death of Joseph (makes snes if Dan will end up being the super soldiers that wish to purge all Christianity)my brother, the true and good man. .
5 And I rejoiced that he was sold, because his father loved him more than us.
6 For the spirit of jealousy and vainglory said to me: Thou thyself also art his son.
7 And one of the spirits of Beliar stirred me up, saying: Take this sword, and with it slay
Joseph: so shall thy father love thee when he is dead.
8 Now this is the spirit of anger that persuaded me to crush Joseph as a leopard crusheth a kid.
9 But the God of my fathers did not suffer him to fall into my hands, so that I should find him alone and slay him, and cause a second tribe to be destroyed in Israel.
10 And now, my children, behold I am dying, and I tell you of a truth, that unless ye keep yourselves from the spirit of lying and of anger, and love truth and longsuffering, ye shall perish.
11 For anger is blindness, and does not suffer one to see the face of any man with truth.
12 For though it be a father or a mother, he behaveth towards them as enemies; though it be a brother, he knoweth him not; though it be a prophet of the Lord, he disobeyeth him; though a righteous man, he regardeth him not; though a friend, he doth not acknowledge him.
13 For the spirit of anger encompasseth him with the net of deceit, and blindeth his eyes, and through lying darkeneth his mind, and giveth him its own peculiar vision.
14 And wherewith encompasseth it his eyes? With hatred of heart, so as to be envious of his brother.
15 For anger is an evil thing, my children, for it troubleth even the soul itself.
16 And the body of the angry man it maketh its own, and over his soul it getteth the mastery, and it bestoweth upon the body power that it may work all iniquity.
17 And when the body does all these things, the soul justifieth what is done, since it seeth not aright.
18 Therefore he that is wrathful, if he be a mighty man, hath a threefold power in his anger: one by the help of his servants; and a second by his wealth, whereby he persuadeth and overcometh wrongfully; and thirdly, having his own natural power he worketh thereby the evil.
19 And though the wrathful man be weak, yet hath he a power twofold of that which is by nature; for wrath ever aideth such in lawlessness.
20 This spirit goeth always with lying at the right hand of Satan, that with cruelty and lying his works may be wrought.
21 Understand ye, therefore, the power of wrath, that it is vain.
22 For it first of all giveth provocation by word; then by deeds it strengtheneth him who is angry, and with sharp losses disturbeth his mind, and so stirreth up with great wrath his soul.
23 Therefore, when any one. speaketh against you, be not ye moved to anger, and if any man praiseth you as holy men, be not uplifted: be not moved either to delight or to disgust.
24 For first it pleaseth the hearing, and so maketh the mind keen to perceive the grounds for provocation; and then being enraged, he thinketh that he is justly angry.
25 If ye fall into any loss or ruin, my children, be not afflicted; for this very spirit maketh a man desire that which is perishable, in order that he may be enraged through the affliction.
26 And if ye suffer loss voluntarily, or involuntarily, be not vexed; for from vexation ariseth wrath with lying.
27 Moreover, a twofold mischief is wrath with lying; and they assist one another in order to disturb the heart; and when the soul is continually disturbed, the Lord departeth from it, and Beliar ruleth over it.
Now let's talk about Samson - the true Heracles.
Regarding jealousy see Dan's prophecies in the Testament of Dan. I believe this predicts the Black Awakening. They want to create Super Soldier as strong as their patriarch Samson:
Hearken to my words, ye sons of Dan; and give heed to the words of your father.
3 I have proved in my heart, and in my whole life, that truth
with just dealing is good and well pleasing to God, and that lying and anger are evil, because they teach man all wickedness.
4 I confess, therefore, this day to you, my children, that in my heart I resolved on the death of Joseph (makes snes if Dan will end up being the super soldiers that wish to purge all Christianity)my brother, the true and good man. .
5 And I rejoiced that he was sold, because his father loved him more than us.
6 For the spirit of jealousy and vainglory said to me: Thou thyself also art his son.
7 And one of the spirits of Beliar stirred me up, saying: Take this sword, and with it slay
Joseph: so shall thy father love thee when he is dead.
8 Now this is the spirit of anger that persuaded me to crush Joseph as a leopard crusheth a kid.
9 But the God of my fathers did not suffer him to fall into my hands, so that I should find him alone and slay him, and cause a second tribe to be destroyed in Israel.
10 And now, my children, behold I am dying, and I tell you of a truth, that unless ye keep yourselves from the spirit of lying and of anger, and love truth and longsuffering, ye shall perish.
11 For anger is blindness, and does not suffer one to see the face of any man with truth.
12 For though it be a father or a mother, he behaveth towards them as enemies; though it be a brother, he knoweth him not; though it be a prophet of the Lord, he disobeyeth him; though a righteous man, he regardeth him not; though a friend, he doth not acknowledge him.
13 For the spirit of anger encompasseth him with the net of deceit, and blindeth his eyes, and through lying darkeneth his mind, and giveth him its own peculiar vision.
14 And wherewith encompasseth it his eyes? With hatred of heart, so as to be envious of his brother.
15 For anger is an evil thing, my children, for it troubleth even the soul itself.
16 And the body of the angry man it maketh its own, and over his soul it getteth the mastery, and it bestoweth upon the body power that it may work all iniquity.
17 And when the body does all these things, the soul justifieth what is done, since it seeth not aright.
18 Therefore he that is wrathful, if he be a mighty man, hath a threefold power in his anger: one by the help of his servants; and a second by his wealth, whereby he persuadeth and overcometh wrongfully; and thirdly, having his own natural power he worketh thereby the evil.
19 And though the wrathful man be weak, yet hath he a power twofold of that which is by nature; for wrath ever aideth such in lawlessness.
20 This spirit goeth always with lying at the right hand of Satan, that with cruelty and lying his works may be wrought.
21 Understand ye, therefore, the power of wrath, that it is vain.
22 For it first of all giveth provocation by word; then by deeds it strengtheneth him who is angry, and with sharp losses disturbeth his mind, and so stirreth up with great wrath his soul.
23 Therefore, when any one. speaketh against you, be not ye moved to anger, and if any man praiseth you as holy men, be not uplifted: be not moved either to delight or to disgust.
24 For first it pleaseth the hearing, and so maketh the mind keen to perceive the grounds for provocation; and then being enraged, he thinketh that he is justly angry.
25 If ye fall into any loss or ruin, my children, be not afflicted; for this very spirit maketh a man desire that which is perishable, in order that he may be enraged through the affliction.
26 And if ye suffer loss voluntarily, or involuntarily, be not vexed; for from vexation ariseth wrath with lying.
27 Moreover, a twofold mischief is wrath with lying; and they assist one another in order to disturb the heart; and when the soul is continually disturbed, the Lord departeth from it, and Beliar ruleth over it.

| Notice how Samson died with his arms outstretched. Victory by self sacrifice foreshadows Yeshua. |
Now let's talk about Samson - the true Heracles.
Did you know that the Spartans called themselves, "the descendants of Heracles?" Sounds as if they made this up in order to scare the helots slaves. Well, that is actually what i was told in my history class. But here i am going to prove to you that it is not BS. The Spartans really did mean it.
Credit to: THE LOST TRIBE OF DAN
Samson, a Nazarite of the tribe of Dan, judged Israel during the period of Philistine domination. At the feast celebrating his marriage to a Philistine woman, Samson proposed a riddle to the Philistines: "Out of the eater came forth meat, and out of the strong came forth sweetness." Judges 14:14 On the seventh day of the feast, the importunate bride extracted from Samson the interpretation of the riddle and related its meaning to her people, viz., that the carcass of a young lion which Samson had killed with his bare hands had attracted a swarm of bees who produced honey therein. Samson paid the wager by slaying thirty Philistines, after which his wife was taken from him. Angered by their treachery, Samson avenged himself by slaughtering many more Philistines and eventually the Philistine lords. Samson's riddle seems to be a Messianic prophecy:
"The Philistines could not figure out the meaning of the riddle, because they had not seen the dead lion, out of whose death came honey. Nor did they know its meaning-that the secret of the Promised Land flowing with milk and honey was by seeing the dead Lion of Judah, "who was delivered up because of our transgressions, and was raised because of our justification" (Rom. 4:25). The revelation of the riddle would bring the reward of new garments, the "garments of salvation" (Isaiah 61:10). Paul speaks of these garments as a 'tabernacle' with which we desire to be clothed, so that we might obtain immortality (2 Cor. 5:1-4). This story, then, is another prophecy of how to be saved and to be granted immortality, clothed with a new and glorified body. Samson's riddle tells us how to interpret Jacob's blessing upon Judah. Judah was to bring forth the King-Messiah, the Lion of the Tribe of Judah, who would die and be raised from the dead. That was Judah 's calling, and Jesus was indeed born of the tribe of Judah." (Struggle for the Birthright)
Several obscure prophecies in the Bible point to the fact that the tribe of Dan will produce the Antichrist. In the context of these prophecies, Samson's riddle may also be a prophecy that the descendants of the tribe of Dan will one day try to destroy the tribe of Judah in jealous revenge for God's judgment on their idolatry. From the carcass of the young lion (Judaism) the tribe of Dan (typified by the bees) will attempt to produce their own golden age (symbolized by honey) and confer immortality on mankind through occult enlightenment. The conspiracy of the tribe of Dan, aka the Synagogue of Satan, to steal the messianic birthright from the tribe of Judah and establish a false messianic kingdom in Israel is given more detailed treatment in our report, Mystery Babylon: Catholic or Jewish?
To suggest that the Antichrist will be from one of the tribes of Israel is likely to incur accusations of "anti-Semitism" from those who would like to conceal this fact. However, we believe that the Biblical admonition to bless the descendants of Abraham, per Genesis 12:3, includes exposing the identity of the man of sin who will lead many Jews to their destruction.
Scripture indicates the following: That the Antichrist is Jewish; He will come from the region of Dan/Mount Hermon (Mount Sion) in the north of Israel as a false fulfillment of Romans 11:26; The tribe of Dan will be rejected by God as part of the 144,000 and will be used by God to bring judgment upon Israel and the unbelieving world. (via the Black Awakening).
Danaus (a Danite?)
1. Arcadians/Spartans are of the Tribe of Dan.
"Now, the question remains, how do we know the Spartans were the offspring of the tribe of Dan? ... Aside from the fact that the Spartans wore long hair as a symbol of their power
The Spartans would braid their hair before going into battle.
(like Samson) there is a legend written about the son of Belus, king of the Spartans -- in which is given the story of one named 'Danaus,' who arrived in Greece with his daughters by ship. According to the legend, his daughters called themselves Danades. They introduced the cult of the mother goddess, which became the established religion of the Arcadians and developed over the years into the worship of Diana...The Spartans so loved their king that they called themselves Danaans -- long before they adopted the name of Spartans. Also in the legend is a record of the arrival of 'colonists from Palestine.' Please note, the man who headed the expedition was named Danaus. He may well have been of the tribe of Dan, and thus would have been the progenitor of the ancient Spartans." (Church, p. 120-21)"In Greek myth...(is) the legend of King Belaus, one Danaus, who arrives in Greece with his daughters, by ship. His daughters are said to have introduced the cult of the mother goddess, which became the established cult of the Arcadians. According to Robert Graves the Danaus myth records the arrival in the Peleponnesus of 'colonists from Palestine.' Graves states that King Belus is in fact Baal, or Bel -- or perhaps Belial from the Old Testament." (Baigent, Holy Blood, p. 275)
"At that particular time Arcadia was ruled by Spartans... The Spartans placed a special magical significance on their long hair ...associated with their great strength. There appears to have been a relationship between the Spartans and the Jews. In the Apocryphal we read: 'It has been found in writing concerning the Spartans and the Jews that they are brethren and are of the family of Abraham.' (Maccabees I 12:21)" (Van Buren, p. 45)
2. Celts are descendants of the Tribe of Dan.
"There are certain facts that suggest that the Celts might have derived from a Jewish tradition from the East. The Celtic body of ecclesiastical and civil knowledge was Druidism. Their system can be traced to about 1800 B.C... . It is recorded in 'Welsh Triads' that Hugh Gadarn synthesized the wisdom of the ancients for those whom he led west from...Sumer and Mesopotamia... In 'The Psalter of Cashel' it states that: 'The Tuatha de Danaan' ruled in Ireland for about two centuries, and were highly skilled in architecture and other arts from their long residence in Greece.' The Tuatha de Danaan were the descendants of Danaus, the son of Belus, who went with his fifty daughters to Argos, the home of his ancestrous Io. In Irish legends the Tuatha de Danaan, who were considered to be demi-gods, ...were said to have possessed a ...Grail-like vessel... These teachers of wisdom ... were the founders of the Druidic priesthood." (Van Buren, pp. 141-142)
“...From the uttermost part of the earth (Hyperboreans—Britons), have we heard songs (of the Bards and Druids), even glory to the righteous... HYPERBOREANS. We are perfectly satisfied that the Hyperboreans of the ancients were the Ancient Britons. They had but a confused conception as to where these remarkable and peculiar people lived, because, as we have before explained, Dan and the kindred tribes kept their colonies a deep secret, hence their name CELTAE.” (Griffith, p. 155)
The Merovingian's...tradition of long hair and the name Samson among the Royal House would indicate the descent from Samson and thus the Tribe of Dan." (Bloomer)
"The Merovingian kings...were called the long-haired Monarchs because they placed great value on their long hair and believed that it gave them strength. One wonders whether Samson was a Merovingian ancestor!" (Van Buren, p. 30)

The origin of the Greek Heracles, comes from the Tyre and the Phoenician empire that are used interchangeably to refer to the Danites would lived right next to them.
"The Phoenicians appear to have recognized the god Baal as the chief deity of their pantheon, yet each Phoenician city also worshiped a unique city ‐ god that they especially revered. In Tyre the name of that god was Melqart. The Greeks knew him as Heracles (the Roman Hercules) and from their Phoenician contacts they absorbed Heracles into their own pantheon early on and created a separate identity for him over the centuries. Ancient historians were therefore always careful to make the distinction between the Greek Heracles and the Tyrian Heracles who was Melqart...ʺ ...the Phoenicians sacrifice quails to Heracles, because Heracles, the son of Asteria and Zeus, went into Libya and was killed by Typhon; but Iolaus brought a quail to him, and having put it close to him, he smelt it and came to life again." Peter Goodgame The Giza Discovery page 28.

| Believed to be Agamemnon's gold funeral mask discovered at the ancient Greek site of Mycenae. He would have been a Danite "Judge" paralleling the reign of the Judges in Israel |
In Hebrew, rakal means to trade. From history, the Phoenicians/Danites traded all over the Mediterranean and even to the New World. The HeRAKALeium means traders. Those who when forth from Argos and seduced other parts of Greece during 1400s to 1000s BC, are spoken of as the Heraclidae or descendants of Heracles. We have already established that the Spartans (originally called DoriANs) come from Dan, so apparently for a while, after the confusion of the Trojan war (c. 1260–1180 BC) which fits the time period of Deborah's rule as Judge over Israel, Dan was seen "remaining in ships? Asher continued on the sea shore, and abode in his breaches." Judges 5:17. Already, Dan including some other tribes, having been trading with Greece were called into battle array from King Agamemnon to invade Troy. Now, after this war in Troy, they were driven north ward out of the Peloponnese and some years after in 1100 BC, where they made reconquest. This is called the DoriAN invasion of Greece (a branch of the mysterious Sea Peoples.) These people are also called the descendants of Heracles. From these Dorains who ended Mycenaean Greece and plunged Greece into a Dark Age are the forefathers of the Lacedaemonians whose capital is Sparta - the future hegemon of Greece in the Archaic Era 800 BC to 449 BC. Notice how there is a place in northern Israel called Dor. Could it be the Dorians that invaded Greece be from that location?
From 
Dorians, people of ancient Greece. Their name was mythologically derived from Dorus, son of Hellen. Originating in the northwestern mountainous region of Epirus and SW Macedonia, they migrated through central Greece and into the Peloponnesus probably between 1100 and 950 BC, defeating and displacing the Achaeans. They rapidly extended their influence to Crete and established colonies in Italy, Sicily, and Asia Minor. Sparta and Crete are generally considered as having had the most typical form of Dorian rule—the invaders maintained their separate societies and subjected and enslaved the conquered population. The arrival of the Dorians marked the disruption of the earlier Greek culture and the beginning of a period of decline. Although the cultural level of the Dorians was below that of the Achaeans, the Dorians did contribute to the culture of Greece, e.g., in drama, poetry, sculpture, and especially in the huge stone buildings that marked the beginning of the Doric style of architecture.
Thus, Agamemnon - who in the Iliad was chosen to be commander and king over all Achaeans (Greeks or Dannans) proceeding to the siege of Troy, was, king of the polis Argos and Mycenae. And his brother Menelaus was king of Sparta, capital of Laconia.He was also the husband of Helen of Troy. That means Hellen is not Greek. She is an Israelite and the Trojan War is possibly an Israelite civil war.
Now is it interesting that the Danites (Phoenicians, Argives and Spartans and Dorians) saw Heracles as the strongest man in the world. The most intriguing feat he did was holding up the dome or the firmament for the titan Atlas. Something that would have been unreal. Would not the traditional stories, myths and legends that are passed down generation to generation? Would it make sense that Heracles has an early origin from the east? From Phoenicia who worshipped Melqart Heracles? Maybe, if the Phoenicians are neighbours to Dan, would it make sense that the success and achievement of Samson would have been echoed across the Mediatrean. Now of course during the Trojan Wars and after it before the Dorian invasion that word about Samson's victory over the Philistines' rule over Israel would have spread even to the Dorain, Argives. Would it make sense that pride in a patriarchal figure would establish the Dorian's social identity so those around can know that these people are related to the strongest man in history. Names all the time change throughout the course of history.
Now lets evaluate how Samson kept the Nazarite vow (he did not). Please note Samson is an allegory for Messiah. The reason why we wanted to marry a pagan Philistine bride is because this parallel Yeshua earning for His bride that has been defiled by paganism and He will stop at nothing to redeem her. So Samson planed to have his Philistine wife so he could redeem her, just like Yeshua did for us at His sacrifice on the cross!
Was the Angel of the Lord that appeared to Samson's parents be Yeshua - the angel of the Lord in Exodus and Joshua? Or is this just a normal angel? His name is wonderful!
Samson killed 3000. The number 3 has Messianic in itself. Samson's final battle is how YHWH teaches us that Messiah Yeshua obtains his greatest victory over the enemy of mankind, through His death.
"Since then the children have shared in flesh and blood, he also himself in the same way partook of the same, that through death he might bring to nothing him who had the power of death, that is, the devil, and might deliver all of them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage." Hebrews 2:14-15

Hebrews 2:14-15
We see that Samuel and John the Baptist's mothers were both barren. We also see them born a Nazarite. Also note, Samuel was a prophet sent to REVEAL to Israel YHWH's choice as King in Israel (David) just as John the Baptist was sent to REVEAL the King of Kings in Israel!
During the law of jealousy the woman that drank the water which represents YHWH's word - affected her womb either with fruitfulness or bareness. The womb in Hebrew i like the heart, we must have the word on our hearts. Just like the woman in the law of jealousy said Amen, Amen, Mary also said Amen,Amen when she was to carry the living word in her womb.
Yeshua is a Nazarite? Both literally and figuratively He was lived in Nazareth but He also did not drink wine at the Last Passover (Supper.)
"As they were eating, Jesus took bread, gave thanks for[a] it, and broke it. He gave to the disciples, and said, “Take, eat; this is my body.” He took the cup, gave thanks, and gave to
them, saying, “All of you drink it, for this is my blood of the new covenant, which is poured out for many for the remission of sins. But I tell you that I will not drink of this fruit of the vine from now on, until that day when I drink it anew with you in my Father’s Kingdom.” Matthew 26:26-29
Therefore, it begs the question: before Yeshua offered Himself up to take the cruse of the adulterous woman, He took a Nazirite vow - a vow that is closely linked with the role of the High Priest (who He is)? Bearing in mind that the Nazirite vow points so heavily to the role of High Priest - it is more likely that the Nazirites in scripture that point to the Messianic do so for the reason of pointing us to the role of our Messiah as our High Priest.
It also says that if you do not pick a duration by getting a Nazirite vow, it would automatically be 30 days. It seems here Yeshua chose a duration so when it was up, He would not be sinning up until the 7000 Millennium.
People say that He was buried in an empty tomb so that He would not come into contact with the dead, and that is part of Him keeping His Nazirite vow. This could also be a qualifier for Yeshua being the Red Heifer sacrifice.
Since Yeshua drank of the bitter vinegar on the cross, it supports D.Thomas Lancaster's theory that He accepted the vinegar only at the time of death and ultimate ritual defilement. Remember, death and the ingestion of grape products nullified the Nazirite vow. Thus, Mr Lancaster notes that Yeshua's acceptance of the vinegar is a picture of His acceptance of death.
Yeshua will not drink wine until He drinks it with us in the Kingdom makes sense if He is officiating as High Priest - it's not necessarily to do with a Nazirite vow.
We are the unfaithful wife, Yeshua has accepted the cup of bitter waters in our place.
"He went forward a little, fell on his face, and prayed, saying, “My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass away from me; nevertheless, not what I desire, but what you desire.” Matthew 26:29

The thigh is a symbol of authority. If Yeshua took the curse and His thigh swelled, it shows a sign of submission to authority and YHWH's justice. It also speaks of ones credibility being wasted.
"You who destroy the temple, and build it in three days, save yourself! If you are the Son of God, come down from the cross!” Likewise the chief priests also mocking, with the scribes, the Pharisees, and the elders, said, “He saved others, but he can’t save himself. If he is the King of Israel, let him come down from the cross now, and we will believe in him. He trusts in God. Let God deliver him now, if he wants him; for he said, ‘I am the Son of God.’” Mathew 27:40-43
Compare this when Yeshua returns:
"Out of his mouth proceeds a sharp, double-edged sword, that with it he should strike the nations. He will rule them with an iron rod. He treads the wine press of the fierceness of the wrath of God, the Almighty. He has on his garment and on his thigh a name written, “KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.” Revelation 19:15-16

The Nazirite vow and Paul - the one who supposedly wrote against Torah keeping.
"18 The day following, Paul went in with us to James; and all the elders were present. 19 When he had greeted them, he reported one by one the things which God had worked among the Gentiles through his ministry. 20 They, when they heard it, glorified God. They said to him, “You see, brother, how many thousands there are among the Jews of those who have believed, and they are all zealous for the law. 21 They have been informed about you, that you teach all the Jews who are among the Gentiles to forsake Moses, telling them not to circumcise their children neither to walk after the customs. 22 What then? The assembly must certainly meet, for they will hear that you have come. 23 Therefore do what we tell you. We have four men who have taken a vow. 24 Take them, and purify yourself with them, and pay their expenses for them, that they may shave their heads. Then all will know that there is no truth in the things that they have been informed about you, but that you yourself also walk keeping the law. 25 But concerning the Gentiles who believe, we have written our decision that they should observe no such thing, except that they should keep themselves from food offered to idols, from blood, from strangled things, and from sexual immorality.” Acts 21:18-25

This is just a reference to James at the Jerusalem council.
"“Therefore my judgment is that we don’t trouble those from among the Gentiles who turn to God, 20 but that we write to them that they abstain from the pollution of idols, from sexual immorality, from what is strangled, and from blood. 21 For Moses from generations of old has in every city those who preach him, being read in the synagogues every Sabbath.” Acts 15:19-21

Lets end with the Aaronic blessing today:
Yahweh bless you, and keep you.
25 Yahweh make his face to shine on you,
and be gracious to you.
26 Yahweh lift up his face toward you,
and give you Shalom
