Fwd: Isaiah 6 Interpretation

[Guest guest]

(Chapter 6:1) In the year of the death of King Uzziah I saw the Lord sitting on a throne, high and lifted up and His train filled the Temple.

(.cj…In the year of the death of King Uzziah I saw the Lord sitting on a throne, high and lifted up and His train filled the Temple. Note, “King Uzziah” gives us a timeline, and an identity, if we cross reference that name with the Book of Daniel’s chapter 11 king who dies after an attack on another country, and is never found. That may be interpolating a little too much, but I feel comfortable with it for now. I also suggest tht this king is none other than our current president, GWB.

When I took a loot at chapter 1 to confirm that King Uzziah was mentioned as one of the kings reigning during the time this prophecy was intended, I discovered that I had only listed three kings, but there was four. I fixed it in the Chapter 1 interpretation, and don’t suspect that the mistake is relevant to the interpretation so far. The king left out, and now added would be the Pope.)

(2) Seraphim stood above Him. They had six wings each, with two they covered their faces, and with two they covered their feet, and with two they flew.

(.cj…Celestial beings stood above Him. They had six wings each, with two they covered their faces, and with two they covered their feet, and with two they flew. Note, The “stood above Him” obviously doesn’t mean in the literal sense, since it also says “they covered their feet, and with two they flew.” So I see them flying, and am wondering what could be meant by “stood above Him.” And why they are covering their faces and feet.”)

(3) And they called to each other, Holy Holy is YHWH of Hosts, The whole earth is full of His Glory.

(.cj…And they called to each other, “Holy Holy is God of Prophets, The whole earth is full of His Glory.” Note, This means that “The whole earth is full of His Glory”, and not just those who profess to believe in Him in any particular way. This sounds like a wake up call, more than simply praise of God.)

(4) And the pillars of the threshold shook at the voice of the one crying and the house was filled with smoke.

(.cj…And the pillars of the threshold shook at the voice of the one crying and the house was filled with smoke. Note, This means that the foundations of earthy religions shook when that statement was made, and that people became confused.”)

(5) And I said Woe is me because I am cut off Because I am a man of unclean lips and in the midst of a people of unclean lips I am dwelling. because my eyes have seen the King YHWH of Hosts.

(.cj…And I said Pity me because I am cut off, because I am a man of unclean lips and living in the midst of a people with unclean lips. Because my eyes have seen the King God of Prophets. Note, That means that Isaiah has found himself living during the time described in this prophecy, and is concerned about his own salvation when he realizes it.”

(6) And there flew to me one of the Seraphim and in his hand a live coal taken with tongs [{from upon the altar.

(.cj…And there flew to me one of the Celestial beings and in his hand was a live coal taken with tongs from upon the alter.)

(7) and he touched it to my mouth}] and he said behold this has touched your lips and it has been turned your iniquity away and your sins have been forgiven.

(.cj…And he touched it to my mouth and he said behold this has touched your lips and it has turned your iniquity away and your sins have been forgiven. Note, This verse appears to be a direct contradiction to the Christian belief of salvation through Christ.) It doesn’t contradict the teachings of Jesus though, because we don’t really know what Jesus said, and what we have left of what he said isn’t really clear, yet.)

(8) And I heard he voice of the Lord saying, Whom shall I send and who will go for Us and I said here am I send me.

(.cj…And I heard the voice of the Lord saying, “Whom shall I send and who will go for Us?” And I said, “Her am I send me.” Note, We now have an event, the death of a king, a new message from God, “The whole earth is full of His Glory,” which Isaiah heard, and knew would cause confusion among the churches of the world. Next we have Isaiah having a talk with God, in which he expresses his remorse for his sinful ways, and is forgiven. Now we have God asking Isaiah if he would be interested in representing Our interests in this game, and Isaiah volunteers.

If you consider that, and now consider what Jesus was saying, it makes sense. The part we missed about Jesus’ message was that we, like he would be given an opportunity to talk to God, also. What the Romans did was use this against us in the form of forced compliance with their belief system, which they wisely decided to include Christianity in, which took them over, giving them a more peaceful appearance, as they proceeded to attempt world dominion, which is what they were all about.

All they had to do was convince us that reincarnation was a myth, obscure a few things here and there, like what he meant about God being in him and him in God as he was in them as they were in him, thus hiding the meaning that, through Jesus was salvation. In other words, they tried to convince us that Jesus was God, and that we had to believe in his religion, now theirs, to be allowed into Heaven. This obviously necessitates world dominion, by them, in the name of God. It looks like God might still have His say in who represents Us to Him, and the rest of the world. Call it a hunch if you will.)

(9) and He said, Go and say to this people You surely hear but you do not understand and you surely see but you do not perceive.

(.cj…And He said, “Go and say to this people, ‘You surely hear, but you do not understand and you surely see, but you do not perceive‘.” Note, This is going to get poor Al in a lot of trouble with the established religions of Judah when he does it. “And just who the hell are you, to tell us we don‘t understand?” “God.” “Yeah right, sit down you psycho, and shut up.”)

 

(10) The name of the heart of this people and their ears are heavy and their eyes are blinded lest they might see with their eyes and with their ears they might hear and understand with their hearts and repent and be healed by it

(.cj…The name of the heart of this people and their ears, are heavy and their eyes are blinded lest they might see with their eyes and with their ears they might hear and understand with their hearts and repent and be healed by it. Note, That says that the people won’t want to hear what he has to say, but it’s necessary because it’s the way to healing through repentance.)

(11) And I said, How long YHWH [m. adonay]. And He said to me, until the cities lie wasted without inhabitants and the houses without man and the land be wasted desolate.

(.cj…And I said, “How long God?” And He said to me, “Until the cities lie wasted without inhabitants and the houses without man and the land be wasted desolate.” Note, That would indicate how long from the time he was given the command to stand, till it took everyone to understand the message he would be bringing.”)

(12) And YHWH has removed man afar and there is a great abandoning in the midst of the land.

(.cj…And God has removed man afar and there is a great abandoning in the midst of the land. Note, That sounds like we will leave the comfort of our cozy little world we have grown accustomed to.)

(13) Yet in it shall be a tenth and it shall return and it shall be for burning as an elm and as an oak whose memorial pillar is in itself , the holy seed is her memorial. (PP) [*]

(.cj…Yet in it shall be a tenth, and it shall return, and it shall be for burning, as an elm and as an oak, whose memorial heap is in itself, the holy seed is her memorial.

Note, This is somewhat confusing, so let’s start by defining that what we are talking about, is the “holy seed,” and that life on earth is being called “a tenth” and compared to the memorial pillar of a tree after it’s been burnt. Ashes are the memorial pillar, or heap of a burnt tree, which is now refined to it’s purest form. So we can therefore conclude that this verse is stating that life on earth is only a part of the life a soul enjoys, and that life on earth’s purpose is for the refinement of the soul to purity. Go ahead, look it up, the word is from the Latin word pila, which could have meant a number of things, one of which is a pile, another is mortar. Does a pile of wood ash not look like a pile of mortar?)

Here are the many varied versions of this verse, which shows the confusion caused when we tried to interpret something our souls were unable to comprehend.

NIV

And though a tenth remains in the land, it will again be laid waste. But as the terebinth and oak leave stumps when they are cut down, so the holy seed will be the stump in the land

NASB

Yet there will be a tenth portion in it, And it will again be subject to burning, Like a terebinth or an oak Whose stump remains when it is felled. The holy seed is its stump.

MSG

And even if some should survive, say a tenth, the devastation will start up again. The country will look like pine and oak forest with every tree cut down--Every tree a stump, a huge field of stumps. But there's a holy seed in those stumps.

AMP

And though a tenth [of the people] remain in the land, it will be for their destruction [eaten up and burned] like a terebinth tree or like an oak whose stump and substance remain when they are felled or have cast their leaves. The holy seed [the elect remnant] is the stump and substance [of Israel].

NLT

Even if only a tenth--a remnant--survive, it will be invaded again and burned. Israel will remain a stump, like a tree that is cut down, but the stump will be a holy seed that will grow again.

KJV

But yet in it shall be a tenth, and it shall return, and shall be eaten: as a teil tree, and as an oak, whose substance is in them, when they cast their leaves: so the holy seed shall be the substance thereof.

NLV

Yet one tenth part of the people will stay in it. But it will be burned again, like an oak tree whose roots are still there when it is cut down. The holy seed is all that will be left (of Israel).

ESV

And though a tenth remain in it, it will be burned again, like a terebinth or an oak, whose stump remains when it is felled." The holy seed is its stump.

CEV

If only a tenth of the people are left, even they will be destroyed. But just as stumps remain after trees have been cut down, some of my chosen ones will be left.

NKJV

But yet a tenth will be in it, And will return and be for consuming, As a terebinth tree or as an oak, Whose stump remains when it is cut down. So the holy seed shall be its stump.

KJ21

But yet in it shall be a tenth, and it shall return and shall be eaten, as a teil tree and as an oak whose substance is in them when they cast their leaves: so the holy seed shall be the substance thereof.

ASV

And if there be yet a tenth in it, it also shall in turn be eaten up: as a terebinth, and as an oak, whose stock remaineth, when they are felled; so the holy seed is the stock thereof.

YLT

And yet in it a tenth, and it hath turned, And hath been for a burning, As a teil-tree, and as an oak, that in falling, Have substance in them, The holy seed [is] its substance!

DARBY

But a tenth part shall still be therein, and it shall return and be eaten; as the terebinth and as the oak whose trunk [remaineth] after the felling: the holy seed shall be the trunk thereof.

NIV-UK

And though a tenth remains in the land, it will again be laid waste. But as the terebinth and oak leave stumps when they are cut down, so the holy seed will be the stump in the land.

(.cj…You will notice, that “burned” isn’t used in most of the translations, and probably because the people of the time, didn’t understand that burning something purified it, thus completely missing the hidden meaning.)

The “cat is out of the bag” with this chapter. Isaiah, in a round about way, just disclosed that he will be this guy we are calling Al, in this life, in which he talks to God and expresses his remorse for being a sinner. God accepts his repentance, and gives him a job to do. I suppose the rest of the prophecy will tell us how this job is going to turn out.

Al, if you’re out there, this song is for you:

I Hope You Dance

I hope you never lose your sense of wonder

You get your fill to eat but always keep that hunger

May you never take one single breath for granted

God forbid love ever leave you empty handed

I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean

Whenever one door closes, I hope one more opens

Promise me that you'll give faith a fighting chance

And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance

I hope you dance

I hope you dance

I hope you never fear those mountains in the distance

Never settle for the path of least resistance

Living might mean taking chances, But they're worth taking

Lovin' might be a mistake, But it's worth making

Don't let some hell bent heart leave you bitter

When you come close to selling out, Reconsider

Give the heavens above more than just a passing glance

And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance

I hope you dance(Time is a wheel in constant motion, always)

I hope you dance(Rolling us along)

I hope you dance(Tell me who wants to look back on their years and wonder)

I hope you dance(Where those years have gone)

I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean

Whenever one door closes, I hope one more opens

Promise me that you'll give faith a fighting chance

And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance

Daaaaaaaaance

I hope you dance

I hope you dance(Time is a wheel in constant motion, always)

I hope you dance(Rolling us along)

I hope you dance(Tell me who wants to look back on their years and wonder)

I hope you dance(Where those years have gone)

DanceTell me who wants to look back on their years and wonder

DanceWhere those years have gone
