John The Baptist’s Ministry
1 In those days came John the Baptist, preaching in the wilderness of Judaea (Judea),
2 And saying, Repent ye (you): for the kingdom of heaven is at hand (near).
(NOTE: repent (verb) = to have a change of mind regarding sins > with sincere regret or remorse that leads to turning away from sin, > stop repeating the same sin, > turning towards God, > asking forgiveness from God > & bearing the fruit / evidence in keeping of repentance (Matthew 3:8 Bring forth therefore fruits meet for repentance). In the Old Testament, the Hebrew word for repent is “נָחַם” (nacham). It means to be sorry, to console oneself, or to change one’s mind. In the New Testament, the Greek word for repent is “μετανοέω” (metanoeō). It means to change one’s mind or purpose, often with the implication of turning away from sin and turning towards God)
3 For this is he that was spoken of by the prophet Esaias (Isaiah), saying, The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye (you) the way of the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah), make his (His) paths straight.
4 And the same John had his raiment (clothings) of camel’s hair, and a leathern girdle about his loins (the part of your body just above your hip, but below your rib cage); and his meat was locusts and wild honey.
5 Then went out to him Jerusalem, and all Judaea (Judea), and all the region round about Jordan,
6 And were baptized of him in Jordan, confessing their sins.
7 But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees come to his baptism, he said unto them, O generation of vipers, who hath (has) warned you to flee from the wrath to come?
(NOTE: Pharisees (proper noun) = a Jewish group that separated from other Jews and followed strictly the oral law of the Old Testament in ancient Judaism. They separated themselves from impurity and opposed the Messiah / Yahusha ha’Mashiach)
(NOTE: Sadducees (proper noun) = Members of a Jewish sect or party of the time of Jesus Christ (Yahusha ha’Mashiach) that denied the resurrection of the dead, the existence of spirits, and the obligation of oral tradition, emphasizing acceptance of the written Law alone. They did not believe in any Scripture beyond the Torah, [the first five books of the Bible: Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy]. According to them, the Torah’s laws alone should be observed. The scripture below confirms that the Sadducees do not believe in resurrection, neither angel, nor spirit – Acts 23:8)
8 Bring forth (Produce as evidence / proof / sign) therefore fruits meet for repentance:
(NOTE: Fruit of the Spirit (noun – metaphorical phrase) = A metaphorical phrase from Galatians 5:22-23 in the Bible to describe the nine (9) characteristics (or ‘fruits‘ as in Matthew 3:8) that true believers of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / YHUH / Yahuah (the Creator), Yahusha (the Son of the Creator) & the Spirit of the Creator (Ruach ha’Qodesh) must have as an evidence / sign / proof of sincere repentance. Matthew 3:8 King James Version (KJV) Bring forth (Produce as evidence / proof / sign) therefore fruits meet for repentance)
(NOTE: repentance (noun) = the action of having a change of mind regarding sins, of regretting and changing one’s wrongdoing or sin, the fact of showing that you are very sorry [being remorseful] for something bad / sinful / evil / wicked you have done in the past which leads to asking Elohim / Aluahym; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah (the Most High Creator) for forgiveness and stop repeating the same sin; penitence)
9 And think not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham to our father: for I say unto you, that God (Elohim / Aluahym; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) is able of these stones to raise up children unto Abraham.
10 And now also the axe is laid unto the root of the trees: therefore every tree which bringeth (bring) not forth good fruit is hewn (cut with an axe) down, and cast (thrown) into the fire.
11 I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance. but he that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost (Holy Spirit), and with fire:
12 Whose fan is in his hand, and he will throughly purge his floor, and gather his wheat into the garner; but he will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire.
The Baptism of the Beloved Son
13 Then cometh (comes) Jesus (Yahusha) from Galilee to Jordan unto John, to be baptized of him.
14 But John forbad (forbid) him, saying, I have need to be baptized of thee (you), and comest thou (come you) to me?
15 And Jesus (Yahusha) answering said unto him, Suffer it to be so now: for thus it becometh (becomes) us to fulfil all righteousness. Then he suffered him (Then John permitted [it and baptized] Him).
16 And Jesus (Yahusha), when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water: and, lo (look), the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit (Ruach) of God (Elohim / Aluahym; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) descending like a dove, and lighting upon him:
17 And lo (look) a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.

Entering The Ark
1 And the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) said unto Noah, Come thou (you) and all thy (your) house into the ark (huge boat / ship); for thee (you) have I seen righteous before me in this generation.
2 Of every clean beast thou shalt (Of every clean animal you shall) take to thee (you) by sevens, the male and his female: and of beasts that are not clean by two, the male and his female.
3 Of fowls (birds) also of the air by sevens, the male and the female; to keep seed (descendants) alive upon the face of all the earth.
4 For yet seven days, and I will cause it to rain upon the earth forty days and forty nights; and every living substance that I have made will I destroy from off the face of the earth.
5 And Noah did according unto all that the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) commanded him.
6 And Noah was six hundred years old when the flood of waters was upon the earth.
7 And Noah went in, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons’ wives with him, into the ark, because of the waters of the flood.
8 Of clean beasts (animals), and of beasts that are not clean, and of fowls, and of every thing that creepeth (creep) upon the earth,
9 There went in two and two unto Noah into the ark, the male and the female, as God (Elohim / Aluahym; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) had commanded Noah.
10 And it came to pass after seven days, that the waters of the flood were upon the earth.
The Flood
11 In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened.
12 And the rain was upon the earth forty days and forty nights.
13 In the selfsame (same) day entered Noah, and Shem, and Ham, and Japheth, the sons of Noah, and Noah’s wife, and the three wives of his sons with them, into the ark;
14 They, and every beast after his kind, and all the cattle after their kind, and every creeping thing that creepeth (creep) upon the earth after his kind, and every fowl after his kind, every bird of every sort.
15 And they went in unto Noah into the ark, two and two of all flesh, wherein is the breath of life.
16 And they that went in, went in male and female of all flesh, as God (Elohim / Aluahym; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) had commanded him: and the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) shut him in.
17 And the flood was forty days upon the earth; and the waters increased, and bare up the ark, and it was lift up above the earth.
The Waters Prevail
18 And the waters prevailed, and were increased greatly upon the earth; and the ark went upon the face of the waters.
19 And the waters prevailed exceedingly upon the earth; and all the high hills, that were under the whole heaven, were covered.
20 Fifteen cubits upward did the waters prevail; and the mountains were covered.
(NOTE: cubit (noun – measurement); 1 cubit = 1.5 feet)
21 And all flesh died that moved upon the earth, both of fowl, and of cattle, and of beast, and of every creeping thing that creepeth (creeps) upon the earth, and every man:
22 All in whose nostrils was the breath of life, of all that was in the dry land, died.
23 And every living substance was destroyed which was upon the face of the ground, both man, and cattle, and the creeping things, and the fowl (bird) of the heaven; and they were destroyed from the earth: and Noah only remained alive, and they that were with him in the ark.
24 And the waters prevailed (dominated) upon the earth an (a) hundred and fifty days.

The Waters Recede
1 And God (Elohim / Aluahym; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) remembered Noah, and every living thing, and all the cattle that was with him in the ark: and God (Elohim / Aluahym; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) made a wind to pass over the earth, and the waters assuaged (became milder or less severe);
2 The fountains also of the deep and the windows of heaven were stopped, and the rain from heaven was restrained;
3 And the waters returned from off the earth continually: and after the end of the hundred and fifty days the waters were abated (reduced in amount).
The Ark Rests On Ararat
4 And the ark rested in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, upon the mountains of Ararat.
5 And the waters decreased continually until the tenth month: in the tenth month, on the first day of the month, were the tops of the mountains seen.
A Raven and a Dove Sent Forth
6 And it came to pass at the end of forty days, that Noah opened the window of the ark which he had made:
7 And he sent forth a raven, which went forth to and fro, until the waters were dried up from off the earth.
8 Also he sent forth a dove from him, to see if the waters were abated from off the face of the ground;
9 But the dove found no rest for the sole of her foot, and she returned unto him into the ark, for the waters were on the face of the whole earth: then he put forth his hand, and took her, and pulled her in unto him into the ark.
10 And he stayed yet other seven days; and again he sent forth the dove out of the ark;
11 And the dove came in to him in the evening; and, lo, in her mouth was an olive leaf pluckt (plucked) off: so Noah knew that the waters were abated from off the earth.
12 And he stayed yet other seven days; and sent forth the dove; which returned not again unto him any more.
13 And it came to pass in the six hundredth and first year, in the first month, the first day of the month, the waters were dried up from off the earth: and Noah removed the covering of the ark, and looked, and, behold, the face of the ground was dry.
14 And in the second month, on the seven and twentieth day of the month, was the earth dried.
Leaving the Ark
15 And God (Elohim / Aluahym; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) spake (spoke) unto Noah, saying,
16 Go forth of the ark, thou (you), and thy (your) wife, and thy sons, and thy sons’ wives with thee.
17 Bring forth with thee (you) every living thing that is with thee (you), of all flesh, both of fowl, and of cattle, and of every creeping thing that creepeth (creeps) upon the earth; that they may breed abundantly in the earth, and be fruitful, and multiply upon the earth.
18 And Noah went forth, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons’ wives with him:
19 Every beast, every creeping thing, and every fowl, and whatsoever creepeth (creeps) upon the earth, after their kinds, went forth out of the ark.
Noah’s Sacrifice and God’s (Elohim’s) Promise
20 And Noah builded (built) an altar unto the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah); and took of every clean beast, and of every clean fowl, and offered burnt offerings on the altar.
21 And the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) smelled a sweet savour; and the Lord (Adonai; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) said in his heart, I will not again curse the ground any more for man’s sake; for the imagination of man’s heart is evil from his youth; neither will I again smite (strike) any more every thing living, as I have done.
22 While the earth remaineth (remains), seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease.

God (Elohim) Blesses Noah
1 And God (Elohim / Aluahym; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) blessed Noah and his sons, and said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth.
2 And the fear of you and the dread of you shall be upon every beast of the earth, and upon every fowl of the air, upon all that moveth (moves) upon the earth, and upon all the fishes of the sea; into your hand are they delivered.
3 Every moving thing that liveth (lives) shall be meat for you; even as the green herb have I given you all things.
4 But flesh with the life thereof, which is the blood thereof, shall ye (you) not eat.
5 And surely your blood of your lives will I require; at the hand of every beast will I require it, and at the hand of man; at the hand of every man’s brother will I require the life of man.
6 Whoso sheddeth (sheds) man’s blood, by man shall his blood be shed: for in the image of God (Elohim / Aluahym; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) made he man.
7 And you, be ye (you) fruitful, and multiply; bring forth abundantly in the earth, and multiply therein.
God’s (Elohim’s) Covenant with Noah
8 And God spake (spoke) unto Noah, and to his sons with him, saying,
9 And I, behold (see), I establish my covenant (agreement) with you, and with your seed (descendants) after you;
10 And with every living creature that is with you, of the fowl, of the cattle, and of every beast of the earth with you; from all that go out of the ark, to every beast of the earth.
11 And I will establish my covenant with you, neither shall all flesh be cut off any more by the waters of a flood; neither shall there any more be a flood to destroy the earth.
Noah’s Drunkenness
12 And God (Elohim / Aluahym; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) said, This is the token of the covenant which I make between me and you and every living creature that is with you, for perpetual generations (generations to come):
13 I do set my bow (rainbow) in the cloud, and it shall be for a token of a covenant between me and the earth.
14 And it shall come to pass, when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the bow (rainbow) shall be seen in the cloud:
15 And I will remember my covenant, which is between me and you and every living creature of all flesh; and the waters shall no more become a flood to destroy all flesh.
16 And the bow (rainbow) shall be in the cloud; and I will look upon it, that I may remember the everlasting covenant between God (Elohim / Aluahym; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) and every living creature of all flesh that is upon the earth.
17 And God (Elohim / Aluahym; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) said unto Noah, This is the token of the covenant, which I have established between me and all flesh that is upon the earth.
18 And the sons of Noah, that went forth of the ark, were Shem, and Ham, and Japheth: and Ham is the father of Canaan.
19 These are the three sons of Noah: and of them was the whole earth overspread.
20 And Noah began to be an husbandman (a farmer), and he planted a vineyard:
21 And he drank of the wine, and was drunken; and he was uncovered within his tent.
22 And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his father, and told his two brethren (brothers) without.
23 And Shem and Japheth took a garment, and laid it upon both their shoulders, and went backward, and covered the nakedness of their father; and their faces were backward, and they saw not their father’s nakedness.
24 And Noah awoke from his wine, and knew what his younger son had done unto him.
Canaan’s Cursed
25 And he said, Cursed be Canaan; a servant of servants shall he be unto his brethren (brothers).
26 And he said, Blessed be the Lord (Adonai) God (Elohim / Aluahym; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) of Shem; and Canaan shall be his servant.
27 God (Elohim / Aluahym; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) shall enlarge Japheth, and he shall dwell (live) in the tents of Shem; and Canaan shall be his servant.
28 And Noah lived after the flood three hundred and fifty years.
29 And all the days of Noah were nine hundred and fifty (950) years: and he died.

THE ORGINAL HEBREW NAME OF THE MESSIAH
| Ancient / Paleo Hebrew | 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤔𐤏 (Yahuah is Salvation) | 𐤌𐤔𐤉𐤇 (Messiah) |
| Modern Hebrew | יהושע (Yahusha = Yahuah is Salvation) | המשיח (ha‘Mashiach = The Anointed One) |
| Romanized (NOTE: Hebrew text is read from right to left) | Yahusha | ha‘Mashiach |
Yahusha (Jesus) was anointed by God (Elohim / Aluahym; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) as the Savior / Messiah to save the sinners for those who believe in Him.
THE ORGINAL HEBREW NAME OF THE MESSIAH WAS TRANSLITERATED ALONG THE YEARS
TRANSLATION VS TRANSLITERATION

In contrast, transliteration focuses on converting text from one script to another, maintaining the original sounds WITHOUT CONVEYING the meaning.
THE ORGINAL HEBREW NAME OF THE MESSIAH WAS TRANSLITERATED ALONG THE YEARS
1) יהושע (Hebrew 3091) romanized = Yahusha = God (Elohim / Aluahym; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) saves

into Greek as Iēsous (Ἰησοῦς)
⬇ transliterated
into Latin as Iesus

17 For God (Elohim / Aluahym; 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah) sent not his (did not send His) Son into the world to condemn (disapprove) the world; but that the world through him (Him) might be saved.
