2)What an enigmatic personality! His name means king of justice and also he is the king of peace(salem,salom). Jesus is said to be a heir of this person! I thought for a minute that Melchisedek could be a symbolic representation of eternal Jehovah, since he is said to be without father, mother! But I also thought that kings and priests represented Jehovah, so he might be a real figure to whom Abram bowed to. So Jehovah may even had temples in Sychem long before Solomon’s temple. Lets not forget Jacob in Sychem, he was somehow brother with Sychemites(until his sons made a crime).
===
Yes, that must have been an interesting place in that time (Salem) when men lived 100+ years, etc, who knows the stories that surround the powers that God Jehovah gave to Melchizedek due to faith, it will probably be a big book in the next, when these things are revealed in depth, Paul says this about him:
(Heb 7:4-10) BEHOLD, then, how great this man (Melchizedek) was to whom Abraham, the family head, gave a tenth out of the chief spoils. 5 True, the men from the sons of Levi who receive their priestly office have a commandment to collect tithes from the people according to the Law, that is, from their brothers, even if these have issued from the loins of Abraham; 6 but the man who did not trace his genealogy from them took tithes from Abraham and blessed him who had the promises.
7 Now without any dispute, the less (Abraham) is blessed by the greater (Melchizedek).
8 And in the one case it is men who are dying that receive tithes, but in the other case it is someone of whom it is witnessed that he lives. 9 And, if I may use the expression, through Abraham even Levi who receives tithes has paid tithes, 10 for he was still in the loins of his forefather when Melchizedek met him.
(Gen 14:19-20) Then he (Mel) blessed him and said: “Blessed be Abram of the Most High God, Producer of heaven and earth; 20 And blessed be the Most High God, Who has delivered your oppressors into your hand!” At that Abram gave him a tenth of everything.
See that? Abraham also has pictured in himself, before he offered Isaac and secured the sworn and promised blessing, a king-priest blessing as well (those carry on to Jesus Christ; a mighty circle back to Melchizedek – amazing). That pattern was also repeated in the Mosaic continuation of the drama, because Jehovah TRADED the spared firstborn of the Israelites from the blood of the Passover Lamb picturing Christ, for the entire Levitical tribe, as well as also sealing it with Aaron as High Priest, so then David comes along (1Chron17) and that kingdom covenant, and the priest_to>_king power is also passed into that covenant by divine blessing, since Jesus served as priest (Heb9), first, before his kingship was given in the heaven. (This Abraham and Melchizedek go very close to Noah in the timeline, definitely to Shem)
2_2/2
This is how I know, as many other examples similar to this pattern/type teaching aid from God exist, but this is how I know absolutely, that the bible is Jehovah’s actual word, look at the detail in this mighty loop throught time, that we can ascertain clearly today inspite of all the worldly confusions concerning these things – all this blessing, promise, and legal covenant stuff may not be a big deal to some people, but it is to God and Jesus and to Abraham and Melchizedek, and to everyone paying attention – this stuff is very very real. And like this great example, it has secrets as well as simplicity, and the more one digs and digs and digs, the more is revealed:
(Col 2:2-3) they may be harmoniously joined together in love and with a view to all the riches of the full assurance of [their] understanding, with a view to an accurate knowledge of the sacred secret of God, namely, Christ. 3 Carefully concealed in him are all the treasures of wisdom and of knowledge.
(Matt 11:25-26) At that time Jesus said in response: “I publicly praise you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you have hidden these things from the wise and intellectual ones and have revealed them to babes. 26 Yes, O Father, because to do thus came to be the way approved by you.
So if Abraham overlapped Shem by over 100 years, and these others had exposure to men also in the other 2 brothers and Noah way back to others, that Jehovah’s name spread FIRST out of that ark, no doubt Noah, and all in that ark made it clear to all others, who it was that delivered them from that world, and things that were in that world. They all knew Jehovah from that “new beginning” as well from the restart.
So Jehovah must have been known from that foundational group from that time, then of course the mayhem proceeds from the distractor devil.

3)Be patient, I will arrive at a great conclusion with this one.Gods name in stones etc. Well, I just read that in a temple of Ammon from around 1350b.c.e , hieroglyphics mention Iehovah. Diodorus Sikeliotis mentions among many wise men who received laws from gods, Moses and the name of god. Iaos!(iaws). I think Eusebius or Clemens of Alexandria calls him Iaoue. What is super interesting is that he is also found in orphic inscriptions. Lets go in Revelation. I am the Alpha and Omega. IA-O!(alpha=a, omega=o). Now, lets go in Exodus. Im ON(The one who exists). So Jehovah means he who exists, without beginning or end. In Delphi, Apollo’s temple, we know that the letter ‘E’ which was usually spelled “EI” WAS HOLY! “Ei” means exists. Also ‘eis’ means ‘one’! Now, there was an effort(mainly with orphics) to ‘merge’ all gods in one. It is supposed that all gods were manifestions of the one. So, it seems that people were aware of the one God(of Adam and Eve) and was worshipped under other code names. I mean yes, there were false systems of worship but Jehovah’s memory was alive, even in other systems than Judaism. Monotheism developed in parallel with polytheism. Polytheism is not older.
Interesting.
Yes, we must imagine as they came off that ark, that the original name of God Jehovah was the first thing out of their mouths when they finally got out, and during the trip. So that name was the basis, no one then had gone bad, until after men started to grow in numbers again, and the “reconnection” was established by the demons. But even today, all things are being restored to reality, one day at a time, and everyone that walks out of GT and Armageddon will also carry that name directly into that real “new beginning”. Monotheism has always been older even if for a few years, because Adam and Noah both started out knowing the one True God, and that original pattern did come off the ark, and nothing came around until later, when the demons started to re-inspire the stories from before the flood, when they ruled as kings in spirit and flesh under Satan’s death lordship.
It took time for them to re-establish their lies, to glorify themselves.
Eventually the competitors names are erased:
(Psalm 9:5) . . .You have rebuked nations, you have destroyed the wicked one. Their name you have wiped out to time indefinite, even forever.
And…
(Psalm 8:1) . . .O Jehovah our Lord, how majestic your name is in all the earth, You whose dignity is recounted above the heavens!
====
So this is all real. When I was first getting my eyes opened, I’d study and see things also in external histories apart from th bible, and then I’d go out into the world and think everyone had seen it too, and they had not of course, but the blindness really puzzled me, for something that seems so obvious was your eyes are opened, all the pieces fall into the framework of truth.
And when that framework sticks to the word, that faithfully the bible is God’s word undisputed, nothing, I tell you nothing can undo that framework of truth. Not just the sacred secret of the Kingdom, or Jesus Christ, or God’s name, the 1000 year reign, all the promises that must be kept, the 4000 years of men and women used in this story as faithful witnesses of the Most High God, the ups, the downs, that Jehovah ALWAYS delivered to the next, higher level. Clearer and clearer we see his Eph1 “Eternal Purpose” CANNOT be stopped or reversed, it rolls like a massive freight train, one day at a time, over all the obstacles.

But also the framework of the bible includes all creation, every pattern in man, history, nations, language. They ALL overlay perfectly with the perfect history in the bible. They find all those kings they said never existed like Sennacherib and Sargon of Assyria, Nimrod etc. Once the bible is allowed to become our framework, reliable, everything else fits in through this whole period as it relates to these kingdoms in the bible in Daniel 2, and the contemporary kingdoms and people surrounding all this, and the ones that sprung from that like the US and UK, and Russia, ALL THEIR MOTIVES ARE REVEALED as well, they either worship Jehovah as Almighty God, or they worship themselves or some “strange gods”. This stuff is mind blowing, it all boils down to Jehovah.
Look at Melchizedek, Abraham, or Job, ALL Jehovah all the way, no waffling in doubt, and their names are still testaments to the reality of Jehovah, and that he does watch over his worshippers, come hell (Jesus) or high-water (Noah/Jonah).
Look what Job asked:
(Job 19:23-25) O that now my words were written down! O that in a book they were even inscribed!
24 With an iron stylus and with lead, Forever in the rock O that they were hewn!
25 And I myself well know that my redeemer is alive, And that, coming after [me], he will rise up over [the] dust.
Well Job, God heard you, and by perfect inspiration your story has been told to the WHOLE world, and will be a record even in the next one, of your story. Did Job know that then? No, he thought he was being erased from existence, forgotten and cursed by God, he was at the low of lows, in sorrow, sleeplessness, tormented by “friends”, just near to giving in and “cursing God so that you will die” as his even wife said to him. Man, this guy hit the bottom of the barrell.
But:
(James 5:11) 11 Look! We pronounce happy those who have endured. YOU have heard of the endurance of Job and have seen the outcome Jehovah gave, that Jehovah is very tender in affection and merciful.

So stick at your research, and continue to trust that the bible is indeed, absolutely Jehovah’s word, Jesus quoted many prophets like Daniel, Jonah and Isaiah, or referenced a particular thing they wrote, so Jesus himself conformed the prophets, and they before that time confirmed him, and no doubt they will be getting their Rev11:15-18 reward, and so will all who stick to Jehovah, and come to realize by his help, and those who believe in him with faith, that he is real, exists, and is all powerful, merely allowing for a season his challengers to TRY to erase his name – no can do!
(Hebrews 11:5-6) . . .By faith Enoch was transferred so as not to see death, and he was nowhere to be found because God had transferred him; for before his transference he had the witness that he had pleased God well. 6 Moreover, without faith it is impossible to please [him] well, for he that approaches God must believe that he is and that he becomes the rewarder of those earnestly seeking him.
So God is working to build our faith one day at a time, for he is real. The world of course waffles on in the dark, and adds to it, and that is from satan, who wants no one to realize who God truly is, and that he will fulfill his purpose to the full, and cannot be stopped in this day to day power which arrives some days, with very very big events. Like when he comes to the realm in spirit power in this final war. He is never leaving that direct connectivity through Jesus Christ, Satan will have had his limited season, and even more limited “short period of time”:
(Revelation 21:3-6) “Look! The tent of God is with mankind, and he will reside with them, and they will be his peoples. And God himself will be with them. 4 And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.” 5 And the One seated on the throne said: “Look! I am making all things new.” Also, he says: “Write, because these words are faithful and true.” 6 And he said to me: “They have come to pass! I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end.. . .
So Satan has a short time left:
(Revelation 12:12) Woe for the earth and for the sea, because the Devil has come down to YOU, having great anger, knowing he has a short period of time.”
And so does his poor wildbeast and current Anglo-American tool head:
(Revelation 17:10) And there are seven kings: five have fallen, one is, the other has not yet arrived, but when he does arrive (7th) he must remain a short while.
“Woe” must mark this period, while the heavens are in a quite different state, at the same time:
(Revelation 12:12) . . .On this account be glad, YOU heavens and YOU who reside in them! Woe for the earth and for the sea. . .
That is how we know Jesus has assumed the gladness in heaven, ON THIS ACCOUNT be glad you heavens: Satan has been tossed out.

4)I will mention the next opinion, but I dont think I agree. Anyway, here it is. About not using God’s name in public, he claims that this is related with magic and divine communication. He claims Jews or Greeks mystes believed that they should not call God in vain and for no important reason. He continues that they spelled God’s name only when they wanted to ask something important or else God would not hear their prayers. I partly disagree with this opinion, because the Bible records that Jehovah’s name should be known among the nations. But it seems that many jewish or other mystes were practising what he says.But this another subject.
I don’t buy the prohibition on Jehovah’s name, no matter what language it may be in, as some say the pronunciation is imperfect. Yet ALL the pronunciations are then subject to the same variance, but Jehovah and Jesus know who is being called when their names are spoken.
I’m not for taking it up in a worthless way, but trying to obscure and erase it is a worse crime. And that criminal inertia goes back to Satan who would just love it if no one ever spoke that name again. Or wrote it again. Look at what happened to the bible, how would anyone else feel about a story from them, authored by them, about them, being replaced with “the ma” said this, thus sayeth “the man”. And that what this Lord thing is, a generic title that can apply to any “lord”, so the personality of God is being lifted out into a generic, and that is desecrating his identity, it is the first thing God “blots” out when desecrating his enemies, he “blots” their name from the book of life.
So that practice is inspired from the one who is also trying to erase and blot out that name, and that is Satan. Then look at the Pharisees, the older pattern of the diluted and metaphysical clergy, they too did not want to use the name, and had all kinds of superstitions and tales as to why it should not be used, yet their own actions “in God’s name” was far worse of a crime.
So these guys are way off, it really puzzles me why people, well some people, do not want to know and recognize and call on this eternal and almighty name. But I do know why, Satan has been trying to blot it out since Eden.
A big part of Jesus ministry was Jehovah’s name, the first thing out of his mouth in the Lord’s prayer because it is tied to “causing existence” and “Becomer” and “causing to become” it is tied in with God’s power, I Am what I am, is also “I do what-so-ever I please”, it’s a name with purpose because it is the origin of the Power of all purpose, everything comes from that name. Even Jesus name is Jehovah’s Salvation” or Jehovah is Salvation, he even carries the name within his own name.
(John 17:6) 6 “I have made your name manifest to the men you gave me out of the world.
So the “breaking up of Satan’s works, is by that name, because that is the name that has already “caused to become” Satan’s death; gen3:15, and the clearing of all the lies and garbage Satan has had man apply to God, that he is the source of in the original Evil one.
(1 John 3:8) . . .the Devil has been sinning from [the] beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was made manifest, namely, to break up the works of the Devil.
Jesus no doubt used and uses Jehovah name, and he is the example as you said as well that his name will be declared and soon fully resident, in all the universe and earth.
(Micah 5:4-5) . . .“And he will certainly stand and do shepherding in the strength of Jehovah, in the superiority of the name of Jehovah his God. And they will certainly keep dwelling, for now he will be great as far as the ends of the earth. 5 And this one must become peace.
4_2/2
(Exodus 9:13-16) Jehovah the God of the Hebrews has said: “Send my people away that they may serve me. 14 For at this time I am sending all my blows against your heart and upon your servants and your people, to the end that you may know that there is none like me in all the earth. 15 For by now I could have thrust my hand out that I might strike you and your people with pestilence and that you might be effaced from the earth. 16 But, in fact, for this cause I have kept you in existence, for the sake of showing you my power and in order to have my name declared in all the earth.
So like it or not, even Satan will be tolerated until that name is full-blown world-wide and universal and heaven as the pattern, they all call on God there.
===
It is amazing the thing you are finding, and how we can all look in our own way and also find a unique witness unto ourselves that this is all a very real story going on here. Some details overlap, but so many details it seems like God reveals them about himself on purpose to millions of people, so we may wonder the true depth that all of us, if it was all put together, could see, definitely a few current lifetimes.
So in just knowing there is much more to be found in this “mystery”, and we won’t get bored looking into it, and we will get tested with doubt and that old dead devil, but still there is more to fit into this great truth framework which the bible reveals, it’s like a personal secret between us and God, as you know not everyone sees these things, and not everyone has that “consciousness of the spiritual need”, and that is the void Satan tries to fill in people, with his counterfeit versions of God.
Bu the reality is, Jehovah will continue to reveal himself to you and us, not as generic “God”, but by his name making himself known by that name which is an important name, regardless of the language, it will be the highest name in this earth very soon, because Jesus whose name is raised by Jehovah to the highest created being will continue to make the name “manifest to the men you (Jehovah) have given me out of the world”, and of course that applies to any age, any gender, any nations, “all sorts of men should be saved”, and “he that calls on the name of Jehovah will be saved”, there is very important reasons why Jesus Christ’s and Jehovah’s name are interlinked and work hand in hand, they are both salvation, Jesus is God’s immortal instrument of this life he brought in to explain very clearly to us at one time lost in “death’s shadow”, he will swallow up death:
(Luke 1:77-79) . . .to give knowledge of salvation to his people by forgiveness of their sins, 78 because of the tender compassion of our God. With this [compassion] a daybreak will visit us from on high, 79 to give light to those sitting in darkness and death’s shadow, to direct our feet prosperously in the way of peace.”
(Isaiah 25:6-8) . . .And Jehovah of armies will certainly make for all the peoples, in this mountain, a banquet of well-oiled dishes, a banquet of [wine kept on] the dregs, of well-oiled dishes filled with marrow, of [wine kept on] the dregs, filtered.
7 And in this mountain he will certainly swallow up the face of the envelopment that is enveloping over all the peoples, and the woven work that is interwoven upon all the nations.
8 He will actually swallow up death forever, and the Sovereign Lord Jehovah will certainly wipe the tears from all faces. And the reproach of his people he will take away from all the earth, for JEHOVAH HIMSELF HAS SPOKEN IT.
That cannot be “unspoken”, when Jehovah says it, it WILL be done.

Thanks for the information, God bless your discoveries into the truths and truth of all this great history of us humans and God’s relationship with us (he will never forget us, nor has he), and this being who came into this world to wrap it up for us, Jesus Christ!
