Paul Condemns Spiritual Pride
5 It is reported commonly that there is fornication among you, and such fornication as is not so much as named among the Gentiles, that one should have his father’s wife.
(NOTE: fornication = voluntary sexual intercourse between unmarried persons or outside of marriage)
(NOTE: Gentiles = anyone who is not of Jewish descent or who does not believe in God [Yahuah]; heathen, pagan)
2 And ye are puffed up (And you are proud), and have not rather mourned, that he that hath (has) done this deed might be taken away from among you.
3 For I verily (truthfully), as absent in body, but present in spirit, have judged already, as though I were present, concerning him that hath (has) so done this deed,
4 In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ (Aḏon Yahusha HaMashiach), when ye (you) are gathered together, and my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ (Aḏon Yahusha HaMashiach),
5 To deliver such an one unto Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus (Aḏon Yahusha).
6 Your glorying is not good. Know ye (you) not that a little leaven (yeast) leaveneth (ferments, leavens, raises, swells) the whole lump?
7 Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye (you) may be a new lump, as ye (you) are unleavened. For even Christ our passover (Mashiach our Pesach) is sacrificed for us:
(NOTE: passover (as in the context of 1 Corinthians 5:7) = The Passover lamb (Pesach H6543)in Egypt foreshadows Yahusha, our Passover Lamb. The blood of the Passover Lamb rescued the Hebrew people from slavery [Exodus 12:1-28]. Similarly, we are freed from the slavery (bonds) of sin by the blood of Yahusha HaMashiach)
8 Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, neither with the leaven of malice (the intention or desire to do evil) and wickedness; but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.
9 I wrote unto you in an epistle (a letter) not to company with fornicators:
10 Yet not altogether with the fornicators of this world, or with the covetous, or extortioners, or with idolaters; for then must ye needs (you need) go out of the world.
11 But now I have written unto you not to keep company, if any man that is called a brother be a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolator, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner; with such an one no not to eat.
12 For what have I to do to judge them also that are without? do not ye (you) judge them that are within?
13 But them that are without God judgeth (Yahuah judges). Therefore put away from among yourselves that wicked person.

110 The Lord (𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah / Yah / Aḏonai) said unto my Lord (the Messiah, His Son, Yahusha, Aḏoni), Sit thou (You) at my right hand, until I make thine (Your) enemies thy (Your) footstool.

3 Thy (Your) people shall be willing in the day of thy (Your) power, in the beauties of holiness from the womb of the morning: thou hast (You have) the dew of thy (Your) youth.

5 The Lord (𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah / Yah / Aḏonai) at thy (Your) right hand shall strike through kings in the day of his wrath (God’s extreme anger).

7 The works of his (His) hands are verity (truth) and judgment; all his (His) commandments are sure.
8 They stand fast for ever and ever, and are done in truth and uprightness.

10 The fear of the Lord (𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah / Yah / Aḏonai) is the beginning of wisdom: a good understanding have all they that do his (His) commandments: his (His) praise endureth (endures, lasts) for ever.

3 Wealth and riches shall be in his house: and his righteousness endureth (endures, lasts) for ever.
4 Unto the upright there ariseth (arises) light in the darkness: he (He) is gracious, and full of compassion, and righteous.
5 A good man sheweth (shows) favour, and lendeth (lends): he will guide his affairs with discretion.
6 Surely he shall not be moved for ever: the righteous shall be in everlasting remembrance.
7 He shall not be afraid of evil tidings (news): his heart is fixed, trusting in the Lord (𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah / Yah / Aḏonai) .
8 His heart is established, he shall not be afraid, until he see his desire upon his enemies.
9 He hath (has) dispersed, he hath(He has) given to the poor; his (His) righteousness endureth (endures, lasts) for ever; his (His) horn shall be exalted with honour.
10 The wicked shall see it, and be grieved; he shall gnash with his teeth, and melt away: the desire of the wicked shall perish.
(NOTE: gnash with teeth = grinds the teeth together in extreme pain or anger)

THE ORGINAL HEBREW NAME OF THE ALMIGHTY CREATOR GOD
Isaiah 52:6 King James Version (KJV)
“Therefore MY PEOPLE SHALL KNOW MY NAME: therefore they shall know in that day that I am he that doth speak: behold, it is I.”
IMPORTANT NOTE: Hebrew text is read from LEFT to RIGHT:-
THE ORGINAL HEBREW NAME OF THE MESSIAH
In Hebrew: מָשִׁיחַ (H4899) = Mashiach (Hebrew) = Messiah (English) / Anointed One (the Savior who saves the sinners for those who believe in Him)
FULL NAME in Hebrew text with ‘The’: יְהוֹשׁוּעַ הַמָשִׁיחַ = Yahushua Ha-Mashiach = Yahushua The Anointed One.
Christos > Χριστός (Greek) transliterated into Christ (English) which means Anointed One
NOTES:-
1. Yeshua יֵשׁוּעַ (H3442 = He will save) is a shortened form of Yehoshooah / Yahushua יְהוֹשׁוּעַ (H3091 = God / Yah saves). EXAMPLE #1: Mike is a shortened form of Michael. EXAMPLE #2: Josh is a shortened form of Joshua.
2. Yehoshooah as spelt in this manner depicts Joshua יְהוֹשׁוּעַ (H3091 = yeh-ho-SHOO-ah) adds Hosea, יְהוֹשׁוּעַ (H1954 = deliver / salvation). Therefore, Yehoshooah / Yahushua means God is Salvation God / Yah saves.
3. Yahushua as spelt in this manner depicts that the Messiah came in the name of His Father, Yah יה / יָהּ (H3050) as in John 5:43).
4. Yahusha as spelt in this manner depicts that the Messiah came in the name of His Father, Yahuah יְהוָֹה (H3068), adds Yasha יָשַׁע (H3467 ) which means ‘Saves’. See the diagram below:-
יְהוֹשׁוּעַ (H3091 = God / Yahuah saves)

WARNING from God (Yahuah) Himself: The Word of God (Yahuah) warned that if we do not have His word abiding (remaining) in us, then we are NOT believers (saved)! WAKE UP PEOPLE! Read John 5:38:-
John 5:38 King James Version (KJV)
And ye (you) have not his (His) word abiding in you: for whom he hath (He / Yahuah has) sent, him ye (Him you) believe not.
1 Thessalonians 5:11 King James Version (KJV)
“Wherefore comfort yourselves together, and edify one another, even as also ye (you) do.”
Hebrews 3:13 King James Version (KJV)
But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.
Matthew 10:8 King James Version (KJV)
Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils: freely ye (you) have received, freely give.
Romans 10:9 King James Version (KJV)
That if thou shalt (you shall) confess with thy (your) mouth the Lord Jesus (Yahusha), and shalt (shall) believe in thine (your) heart that God hath (Yahuah has) raised him (Him) from the dead, thou shalt (you shall) be saved.
John 3:3 Amplified Bible (AMP)
Jesus (Yahusha) answered him, “I assure you and most solemnly (seriously) say to you, unless a person is born again [reborn from above—spiritually transformed, renewed, sanctified], he cannot [ever] see and experience the kingdom of God (Yahuah).”
Isaiah 52:6 King James Version (KJV)
“Therefore MY PEOPLE SHALL KNOW MY NAME: therefore they shall know in that day that I am he that doth (He who does) speak: behold, it is I.”
