First you should know the Creator does not approve of being called by “god” “lord”. These are only titles, not names.
The Creator has told us titles He approves of like Creator, Rock, Savor, Father. The Creator has a Name we should use Yahweh and Yahshua in the Paleo Hebrew is hwhy is the tetragrammaton
as it is called. In English means, "I am that I am". Hebrew is written right to left. The oldest writing we have is the Moabite Stone.
Below is the oldest form of the Sacred Name
I have corrected the words, because most texts, and bibles are changed to wrong teachings, specifically to hide the Great Name of our Creator, Yahweh!
Isaiah 42:8
“I am Yahweh; that is my name!
I will not yield my glory to another
or my praise to idols.
Jeremiah 8:8
“‘How can you say, “We are wise,
for we have the law of Yahweh,”
when actually the lying pen of the scribes
has handled it falsely?
Jeremiah 23
25 “I have heard what the prophets say who prophesy lies in my name. They say, ‘I had a dream! I had a dream!’ 26 How long will this continue in the hearts of these lying prophets, who prophesy the delusions of their own minds? 27 They think the dreams they tell one another will make my people forget my name, just as their ancestors forgot my name through Baal worship.
Baal means "lord" "Master" Baal and El were the gods of the cannianite's The Creator was warning us against not following, and this song is a testimony The Creator said they would go into the promise land an would worship these gods. The words "Lord God" the Christians are worshipping is "Baal El". This Song is a witness against us. The Creator also said the writers of the Scriptures would change His Name, and write it wrong. This is the reason the first Temple was destroyed, and the Jews were sent into captivity in Babylon for 70 years.
The oldest known source of Scriptures use the Sacred Name called the "J" source. This dates to around 950 BCE. These text use the paleo Hebrew name
Moses was given the Song of Moses about 1400 BCE
The children of Israel started to worship the gods of the Cannanites shortly after they crossed the river of Jordan. 1 Kings show a struggle between these gods, and the Creator being served by different Kings.
Solomon built the first Temple, about 850 BCE, and this is when the Scribes began to change the Texts, specifically the Name of the Creator to Elohim. This was said to have been done to protect the Infallible Name from misuse by the common people.
Jews and Levities were in Yerusalem at that time. So both were responsible.
The first temple was destroyed in 586 BCE, and all in Yerusalem went into captivity in Babylon for the next 70 years.
While in Babylon the Hebrew people learned a new writing skill, that today is very close to modern Hebrew today, and they rewrote all the Scriptures they had taken from the Temple. While doing this they also changed the Name of the Creator in these text to the words they used in Cannan El, El Shaddai, and the most common "Elohim" This is commonly refereed to as the "E" source.
The word is identical to the usual plural of el meaning gods or magistrates, and is cognate to the 'l-h-m found in Ugaritic, where it is used for the pantheon of Canaanite gods, the children of El, and conventionally vocalized as "Elohim".
After the returning Jews gathered in Yerusalem, and planned the rebuilding of the Temple, there was much debate over what was true Scriptures, and the leading Scribes at the time began to compile what they believed, and this was what Scholars today are calling the "D" source. The Names at this point were already changed. The "D" source more refers to the first 5 books being compiled together as works of Moses.
About the same time another group also trying to gather a true Scripture, compiled another group of the first five books, and added some of the other texts like Kings 1-2 and prophets. Scholars today are calling this the "P" source, and this was before 350 BCE when the Second Temple was finished.
This is the time when many things were going on. The Jews were compiling the Canonized Bible of the old testament from basically all the sources listed above "J", "E", "D", and "P". and in the Dead Sea Scrolls we have 2 copies of the canonized text. This proves the old testament as we know it was in circulation at that time. Today we know this text to be the Masoretic Text.
Numbers 18
1 The Lord said to Aaron, “You, your sons and your family are to bear the responsibility for duties connected with the sanctuary, and you and your sons alone are to bear the responsibility for duties connected with the priesthood.
Remember The Creator put the Levities in charge of all Temple duties, not the Jews. The Levities at that time in 350 BCE came to the new Temple, and approached the Jews about doing the Temple duties, and the Jews told them to go away, and refused to allow them in.
So these were exiled into the wilderness in Damascus, where they lived for the next 200+ years. The Teacher of Righteousness appeared on the scene about 150 BCE. They moved closer to Yerusalem, to the Qumran Village near the Dead Sea.
I will end this study here. The next study will be the next 150 years, and the documents we have original copies of from the Dead Sea Scrolls.
If you are a Jew, keep an open-mind, because that is the only way we can learn. Our heritage is what it is. Our job in life is learn from our mistakes, so we do not make them over and over again. Yes, our forefathers screwed up! That is why the first Temple was destroyed, and The Creator explains it very clear in His words. The Pastors and Rabbis today are not trying to fix anything, they would rather you be stupid, and not question the main stream doctrine they teach. This is so simple. Study to show yourself approved.
