Yeshayahu/Isaiah 4:1, "and seven women shall take hold of one man"..? [What does this mean?]

Posted : 27 Aug, 2012 02:57 PM

Please go to Yeshayahu/Isaiah 4:1



"And in that day seven women shall take hold of one man, saying, We will eat our own bread, and wear our own apparel: only let us be called by thy name, to take away our reproach."



Yeshayahu is not speaking of "tomorrow", when he gets up, nor can it be said that he referring to the earlier days of the creation when men ruled and women were truly treated as "second class citizens", because he is using a future tense term "THAT DAY" which refers to another Day in the future.



Is Yeshayahu referring to a 24 HR period? What does Yeshayahu mean, when he uses the term "IN THAT DAY"..?



We need to go to the B'rit Hadasha [New Testament] to get the answer.



Ever since Adam ate of the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil, and did not die, men have thought that the Torah was stupid and worthless, for how can YaHUaH (YHUH) tell Adam, "in the day you eat of the tree, you shall die", and have it mean anything, especially after a 24 hour period had passed, and all know that Adam did not die?



Adam lived to be 930 years old before he died, and so men count it, that "the Bereshit/Genesis account must be made up and absurd, because Adam clearly did not die with 24 hours.



This is why Peter teaches, pointing out that those who had thought that the Torah was goofy, and that "the promise of G-d was worthless, had not comprehended the spiritual mystery associated with the term that Elohim used with Adam, "a day". Here he explains what Abba was referring to, and that it was not a 24 hours period, but that it was a 1,000 year period:



"But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day"."[2 Petros/Peter 3:8]:



Notice how Peter teaches men of the prophetic mystery surrounding what Abba was saying to Adam, knowing - in advance of His having said this to Adam, that he [Adam] was going to eat of the Tree, but not die in "a 24 hour period�, as men would think he had meant, but that this comment was pointing to the New Testament period, when Peter would explain why Abba had said this in the first place.



The writer of the Bereshit/Genesis account which records the first half of this mystery is Moses, who is one of the "bachiyr"; but the mystery would not be comprehended nor explained until the New Testament period, when Peter, one of the Natzarim, was to write of this mystery, proving to all, the link between the Old and New Covenants.



This Two Part Mystery, wherein Moses [of the bachiyr] writes of the mystery, leaving it for Peter [of the eklektos] to answer it, clearly proves that the Old Testament and the New are to be linked together.



Let's get back to the reason why Peter was explaining this mystery.



It is because of what Yahusha/Jesus said to the disciples, when they asked "why do you speak to these men in parables?", and Yahusha/Jesus responded, "to you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given" [Mattityahu/Matthew 13:10-14]:



"And in them [the Jews of Judaism] is fulfilled the prophecy of Esaias, which saith, By hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and shall not perceive: For this people's heart is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and should understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them. But blessed are your eyes, for they see: and your ears, for they hear. For verily I say unto you, That many prophets and righteous men have desired to see those things which ye see, and have not seen them; and to hear those things which ye hear, and have not heard them." [Referring to Yeshayahu/Isaiah 6:10]



What Yahusha/Jesus is referring to, is the prophecy of Yeshayahu/Isaiah 6:10 and how it related to Judaism.



This proves that what the Natzarim were teaching in Jerusalem, about the Messiah and "natsar" meaning "root" and not �branch� [Yeshayahu 11:1] was what Yeshayahu was referring to, was true, and that those who were dominating the physical government of Jerusalem - called "Judaism", were hypocrites and pretenders who lied and usurped the scriptures to manipulate the people, and did not and do not know the truth, because they are the 1/2 part of Abraham's seed, of the Hebrew race, which were to reject the Torah, and not comprehend it.



Yeshayahu was not "a Jew", because he was of the tribe of Yudah/Judah, and he had nothing to do with Judaism, but a prophet of the "bachiyr", writing to the "eklektos", and especially Peter, who was to come. Only Peter could unlock the mystery of the sum of time regarding Yeshayahu's prophecy of Chapter 4:1. This is why we see Shaul/Paul writing:



"Now all these things [which are written in the Torah] happened unto them [the bachiyr] for ensamples: and they are written for our [the eklektos] admonition, upon whom the ends of the world are come." [I Qorinti'im/Corinthians 10:11]



Yeshayahu lived 740-700BC, which when you factor in the 1,000 years, that would make it well past the beginning of the Christian period, into [at least] the 8th century AD. But that won't work, with trying to meet all of the criterion which is part of this prophecy.



Yeshayahu gives us a very important clue, as to what time period he is talking about. He states, that these seven women that will take hold of one man, will be able to control their own lives and lifestyles, and that definitely was not possible anywhere in the world until the Equal Rights Clause of the 14th Amendment and the Women's Suffrage movement of 19th to 20th centuries, when "Women's Liberation" began, which led to women finally being allowed to vote in 1920.



Go read of Susan B. Anthony and the struggles she endured, and of how she was arrested for leading protests, and even had cases which went to the United States Supreme Court, when she was fined for trying to live her life as she saw fit, but was jailed and fined. Women were not able to demonstrate this �choice� of Yeshayahu 4:1 until the �Equal Rights Amendment�.



So there it is, the key to Yeshayahu 4:1, and the time period Abba YaHUaH (YHUH) said through the Ruach Ha-Kodesh, was to come.



In closing,



It is interesting when you consider the verbiage of Yeshayahu 4:1, "in that day SEVEN WOMEN SHALL TAKE HOLD OF ONE MAN," that it indicates that the Father is going to cause these seven women to comprehend the role between men of Abba YaHUaH (YHUH) and David, Abraham, and others who comprehend the Abrahamic covenant, and seek to have that son, that anointed man to cover them.



These women, of Yeshayahu 4:1 are obviously led of Abba's Ruach [Spirit] to recognize the value of demonstrating the Word of Torah in their lives, and its sanctifying and cleansing effects upon their souls, to remove the reproach of the system in which we now live, for it is unclean, and always has been.



Shalom!
