Yahusha, the Lamb of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / YHUH / Yahuah
29 The next day John seeth (saw) Yahusha coming unto him, and saith (said), Behold (See) the Lamb of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / YHUH / Yahuah, which taketh (who takes) away the sin of the world.
30 This is he (He) of whom I said, After me cometh (comes) a man (Man) which is preferred before me: for he (He) was before me.
31 And I knew him not (And I did not recognize Him [as the Messiah]): but that he (He) should be made manifest (revealed) to Israel, therefore am I come baptizing with water.
32 And John bare record (testified), saying, I saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a dove, and it abode upon him (and He remained upon Him).
33 And I knew him not (And I did not recognize Him [as the Messiah]): but he (He) that sent me to baptize with water, the same said unto me, Upon whom thou shalt (you shall) see the Spirit descending, and remaining on him, the same is he which baptizeth with the Holy Ghost (He who baptizes with the Holy Spirit).
34 And I saw, and bare record (testified) that this is the Son of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / YHUH / Yahuah.
The First Disciples
35 Again the next day after John stood, and two of his (His) disciples;
36 And looking upon Yahusha as he walked, he saith (said), Behold (Look) the Lamb of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / YHUH / Yahuah!
37 And the two disciples heard him (Him) speak, and they followed Yahusha.
38 Then Yahusha turned, and saw them following, and saith unto (said to) them, What seek ye (What do you want)? They said unto him, Rabbi, (Teacher) where dwellest thou (where are You staying)?
39 He saith unto (said to) them, Come and see. They came and saw where he dwelt (where He was staying), and abode (stayed) with him (Him) that day: for it was about the tenth hour (about 4pm).
40 One of the two which heard John speak, and followed him, was Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother.
41 He first findeth (He first looked for and found) his own brother Simon, and saith unto (said to) him, We have found ha’Mashiach (the Messiah), which is, being interpreted (translated), the Anointed One.
42 And he brought him to Yahusha. And when Yahusha beheld (saw) him, he said, Thou art (You are) Simon the son of Jona: thou shalt (you shall) be called Cephas, which is by interpretation, A stone.
43 The day following Yahusha would go forth into Galilee, and findeth (found) Philip, and saith unto (said to) him, Follow me (Me).
44 Now Philip was of Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter.
45 Philip findeth (found) Nathanael, and saith unto (said to) him, We have found him (Him), of whom Moses in the law, and the prophets, did write, Yahusha of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.
46 And Nathanael said unto him, Can there any good thing come out of Nazareth? Philip saith unto (said to) him, Come and see.
47 Yahusha saw Nathanael coming to him (Him), and saith (said) of him, Behold (Look) an Israelite indeed, in whom is no guile (deceit)!
48 Nathanael saith unto (said to) him, Whence knowest thou me (From where do you know me)? Yahusha answered and said unto him, Before that Philip called thee (you), when thou wast (you were) under the fig tree, I saw thee (you).
49 Nathanael answered and saith unto him (said to Him), Rabbi, thou art (My Master, You are) the Son of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / YHUH / Yahuah; thou art (You are) the King of Israel.
50 Yahusha answered and said unto him, Because I said unto thee (you), I saw thee (you) under the fig tree, believest thou (do you believe [in Me])? thou shalt (You shall) see greater things than these.
51 And he saith unto (He said to) him, Verily, verily, (Truly, truly) I say unto you, Hereafter ye (From now on you) shall see heaven open, and the angels of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / YHUH / Yahuah ascending (going up) and descending (coming down) upon the Son of man (Son of Man).

Jehu Kills Ahab’s Family
10 And Ahab had seventy sons in Samaria (Shomeron). And Jehu (Yahu) wrote letters, and sent to Samaria, unto the rulers of Jezreel (Yizreel), to the elders, and to them that brought up Ahab’s children, saying,
2 Now as soon as this letter cometh (comes) to you, seeing your master’s sons are with you, and there are with you chariots and horses, a fenced city also, and armour;
3 Look even out the best and meetest (meet) of your master’s sons, and set him on his father’s throne, and fight for your master’s house.
4 But they were exceedingly afraid, and said, Behold (Look), two kings stood not before him: how then shall we stand?
5 And he that was over the house, and he that was over the city, the elders also, and the bringers up of the children, sent to Jehu, saying, We are thy (your) servants, and will do all that thou shalt (you shall) bid us; we will not make any king: do thou (you) that which is good in thine (your) eyes.
6 Then he wrote a letter the second time to them, saying, If ye (you) be mine, and if ye will hearken unto (and if you will pay attention to) my voice, take ye (you) the heads of the men your master’s sons, and come to me to Jezreel by to morrow (tomorrow) this time. Now the king’s sons, being seventy persons, were with the great men of the city, which brought them up.
7 And it came to pass (And it indeed happened), when the letter came to them, that they took the king’s sons, and slew (killed) seventy persons, and put their heads in baskets, and sent him them to Jezreel.
8 And there came a messenger, and told him, saying, They have brought the heads of the king’s sons. And he said, Lay ye (you) them in two heaps at the entering in of the gate until the morning.
9 And it came to pass (And it indeed happened) in the morning, that he went out, and stood, and said to all the people, Ye (You) be righteous: behold (look), I conspired against my master, and slew (killed) him: but who slew (killed) all these?
10 Know now that there shall fall unto the earth nothing of the word (Word) of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / YHUH / Yahuah, which 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / YHUH / Yahuah spake (spoke) concerning the house of Ahab: for 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / YHUH / Yahuah hath (has) done that which he spake (spoke) by his servant Elijah.
11 So Jehu slew (killed) all that remained of the house of Ahab in Jezreel, and all his great men, and his kinsfolks, and his priests, until he left him none remaining.
12 And he arose and departed, and came to Samaria. And as he was at the shearing house in the way,
13 Jehu met with the brethren of Ahaziah king of Judah, and said, Who are ye? And they answered, We are the brethren of Ahaziah; and we go down to salute the children of the king and the children of the queen.
14 And he said, Take them alive. And they took them alive, and slew (killed) them at the pit of the shearing house, even two and forty men; neither left he any of them.
15 And when he was departed thence, he lighted on Jehonadab the son of Rechab coming to meet him: and he saluted him, and said to him, Is thine (your) heart right, as my heart is with thy (your) heart? And Jehonadab answered, It is. If it be, give me thine (your) hand. And he gave him his hand; and he took him up to him into the chariot.
16 And he said, Come with me, and see my zeal for 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / YHUH / Yahuah. So they made him ride in his chariot.
17 And when he came to Samaria, he slew (killed) all that remained unto Ahab in Samaria, till he had destroyed him, according to the saying of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / YHUH / Yahuah, which he spake (spoke) to Elijah.
Jehu Kills the Worshippers of Baal
18 And Jehu gathered all the people together, and said unto them, Ahab served Baal a little; but Jehu shall serve him much.
(NOTE: Baal / Ba’al (proper noun) = בַּעַלa (H1167) = Lord, master, owner, husband, a proper noun referring to a Canaanite deity. This Canaanite-Phoenician idol [opposite of the One True Almighty Creator / Elohim / 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah] which looks like a cow with two horns and is associated with or equivalent Satan / Devil or His demons). An association in opposition of the One True Almighty Creator / Elohim / 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / Yahuah: Satan = שָׁלוֹם (Hebrew 7854) / Lucifer (Hebrew 1966; הֵילֵל Helel – Word origin: Halal 1984; to praise / to boast [self]) [before he was casted out from heaven] / Baphomet / Devil / Diablo [in Spanish] / Father of Lies / serpent / the enemy / Prince of the Air / Fallen Angel / morning star / shining one / Dragon / Beast / Roaring lion / The Accuser / Murderer / Beelzebub / Belial / Baalim / Antichrist and etc.)
19 Now therefore call unto me all the prophets of Baal, all his servants, and all his priests; let none be wanting: for I have a great sacrifice to do to Baal; whosoever shall be wanting, he shall not live. But Jehu did it in subtilty, to the intent that he might destroy the worshippers of Baal.
20 And Jehu said, Proclaim a solemn assembly for Baal. And they proclaimed it.
21 And Jehu sent through all Israel: and all the worshippers of Baal came, so that there was not a man left that came not. And they came into the house of Baal; and the house of Baal was full from one end to another.
22 And he said unto him that was over the vestry, Bring forth vestments for all the worshippers of Baal. And he brought them forth vestments.
23 And Jehu went, and Jehonadab the son of Rechab, into the house of Baal, and said unto the worshippers of Baal, Search, and look that there be here with you none of the servants of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / YHUH / Yahuah, but the worshippers of Baal only.
24 And when they went in to offer sacrifices and burnt offerings, Jehu appointed fourscore men without, and said, If any of the men whom I have brought into your hands escape, he that letteth (lets) him go, his life shall be for the life of him.
25 And it came to pass (And it indeed happened), as soon as he had made an end of offering the burnt offering, that Jehu said to the guard and to the captains, Go in, and slay them; let none come forth. And they smote them with the edge of the sword; and the guard and the captains cast them out, and went to the city of the house of Baal.
26 And they brought forth the images out of the house of Baal, and burned them.
27 And they brake (tore) down the image of Baal, and brake (tore) down the house of Baal, and made it a draught house unto this day.
28 Thus Jehu destroyed Baal out of Israel.
29 Howbeit from the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, who made Israel to sin, Jehu departed not from after them, to wit, the golden calves that were in Bethel, and that were in Dan.
30 And 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / YHUH / Yahuah said unto Jehu, Because thou hast (you have) done well in executing that which is right in mine (my) eyes, and hast (have) done unto the house of Ahab according to all that was in mine heart, thy (your) children of the fourth generation shall sit on the throne of Israel.
31 But Jehu took no heed to walk in the law of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / YHUH / Yahuah Elohim of Israel with all his heart: for he departed not from the sins of Jeroboam, which made Israel to sin.
The Death of Jehu
32 In those days 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / YHUH / Yahuah began to cut Israel short: and Hazael smote (struck) them in all the coasts of Israel;
33 From Jordan eastward, all the land of Gilead, the Gadites, and the Reubenites, and the Manassites, from Aroer, which is by the river Arnon, even Gilead and Bashan.
34 Now the rest of the acts of Jehu, and all that he did, and all his might, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel?
35 And Jehu slept with his fathers: and they buried him in Samaria. And Jehoahaz his son reigned in his stead.
36 And the time that Jehu reigned over Israel in Samaria was twenty and eight years.

Queen Athaliah Rules in Judah
11 And when Athaliah the mother of Ahaziah saw that her son was dead, she arose and destroyed all the seed royal.
2 But Jehosheba, the daughter of king Joram, sister of Ahaziah, took Joash the son of Ahaziah, and stole him from among the king’s sons which were slain; and they hid him, even him and his nurse, in the bedchamber from Athaliah, so that he was not slain.
3 And he was with her hid in the house of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / YHUH / Yahuah six years. And Athaliah did reign over the land.
Revolt against Athaliah
4 And the seventh year Jehoiada sent and fetched the rulers over hundreds, with the captains and the guard, and brought them to him into the house of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / YHUH / Yahuah, and made a covenant with them, and took an oath of them in the house of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / YHUH / Yahuah, and shewed (showed) them the king’s son.
5 And he commanded them, saying, This is the thing that ye (you) shall do; A third part of you that enter in on the sabbath shall even be keepers of the watch of the king’s house;
(NOTE: Sabbath Day (proper noun – name of the day of the week) = Strong’s Concordance H7676: שַׁבָּת Transliteration: shabbath = To pause / intermission. ROOT WORD: H7673. שָׁבַת Transliteration: shabath = To rest, to cease, to stop, to desist. It is the seventh day / Saturday / Yom Shabbat. In accordance with Exodus 20:8–11, the Almighty Most High Almighty Creator 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / YHUH / Yahuah Himself commanded that the seventh day of the week to be kept holy as the Sabbath Day (COMMANDMENT #4). The purpose of this day of rest is to remind the believers to obey the 4th commandment of the Most High Almighty Creator 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / YHUH / Yahuah in Exodus 20:8–11 from the Ten Commandments: Exodus 20:1-17)
DIAGRAM: Days of the Week in the Hebrew Language
6 And a third part shall be at the gate of Sur; and a third part at the gate behind the guard: so shall ye (you) keep the watch of the house, that it be not broken down.
7 And two parts of all you that go forth on the sabbath, even they shall keep the watch of the house of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / YHUH / Yahuah about the king.
8 And ye (you) shall compass the king round about, every man with his weapons in his hand: and he that cometh within the ranges, let him be slain: and be ye (you) with the king as he goeth (goes) out and as he cometh (comes) in.
9 And the captains over the hundreds did according to all things that Jehoiada the priest commanded: and they took every man his men that were to come in on the sabbath, with them that should go out on the sabbath, and came to Jehoiada the priest.
10 And to the captains over hundreds did the priest give king David’s spears and shields, that were in the temple of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / YHUH / Yahuah.
11 And the guard stood, every man with his weapons in his hand, round about the king, from the right corner of the temple to the left corner of the temple, along by the altar and the temple.
12 And he brought forth the king’s son, and put the crown upon him, and gave him the testimony; and they made him king, and anointed him; and they clapped their hands, and said, Elohim / Aluahym save the king.
The Death of Athaliah
13 And when Athaliah heard the noise of the guard and of the people, she came to the people into the temple of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / YHUH / Yahuah.
14 And when she looked, behold (saw), the king stood by a pillar, as the manner was, and the princes and the trumpeters by the king, and all the people of the land rejoiced, and blew with trumpets: and Athaliah rent (tore) her clothes, and cried, Treason, Treason.
15 But Jehoiada the priest commanded the captains of the hundreds, the officers of the host, and said unto them, Have her forth without the ranges: and him that followeth (follows) her kill with the sword. For the priest had said, Let her not be slain (not be put to death) in the house of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / YHUH / Yahuah.
16 And they laid hands on her; and she went by the way by the which the horses came into the king’s house (palace): and there was she slain (she was put to death).
Jehoiada’s Religious Reforms
17 And Jehoiada made a covenant between 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / YHUH / Yahuah and the king and the people, that they should be the people of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / YHUH / Yahuah; between the king also and the people.
18 And all the people of the land went into the house of Baal, and brake (broke) it down; his altars and his images brake (broke) they in pieces thoroughly, and slew (killed) Mattan the priest of Baal before the altars. And the priest appointed officers over the house of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / YHUH / Yahuah.
19 And he took the rulers over hundreds, and the captains, and the guard, and all the people of the land; and they brought down the king from the house of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / YHUH / Yahuah, and came by the way of the gate of the guard to the king’s house. And he sat on the throne of the kings.
20 And all the people of the land rejoiced, and the city was in quiet: and they slew (killed) Athaliah with the sword beside the king’s house.
21 Seven years old was Jehoash when he began to reign.

Jehoash Repairs the Temple
12 In the seventh year of Jehu Jehoash began to reign; and forty years reigned he in Jerusalem. And his mother’s name was Zibiah of Beersheba.
2 And Jehoash did that which was right in the sight of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / YHUH / Yahuah all his days wherein Jehoiada the priest instructed him.
3 But the high places were not taken away: the people still sacrificed and burnt incense in the high places.
4 And Jehoash said to the priests, All the money of the dedicated things that is brought into the house of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / YHUH / Yahuah, even the money of every one that passeth (passes) the account, the money that every man is set at, and all the money that cometh (comes) into any man’s heart to bring into the house of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / YHUH / Yahuah,
5 Let the priests take it to them, every man of his acquaintance: and let them repair the breaches of the house, wheresoever any breach shall be found.
6 But it was so, that in the three and twentieth year of king Jehoash the priests had not repaired the breaches of the house.
7 Then king Jehoash called for Jehoiada the priest, and the other priests, and said unto them, Why repair ye (you) not the breaches of the house? now therefore receive no more money of your acquaintance, but deliver it for the breaches of the house.
8 And the priests consented to receive no more money of the people, neither to repair the breaches of the house.
9 But Jehoiada the priest took a chest, and bored a hole in the lid of it, and set it beside the altar, on the right side as one cometh (comes) into the house of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / YHUH / Yahuah: and the priests that kept the door put therein all the money that was brought into the house of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / YHUH / Yahuah.
10 And it was so, when they saw that there was much money in the chest, that the king’s scribe and the high priest came up, and they put up in bags, and told the money that was found in the house of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / YHUH / Yahuah.
11 And they gave the money, being told, into the hands of them that did the work, that had the oversight of the house of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / YHUH / Yahuah: and they laid it out to the carpenters and builders, that wrought upon the house of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / YHUH / Yahuah,
12 And to masons (builders and workers in stone), and hewers (cutters) of stone, and to buy timber and hewed (cut) stone to repair the breaches of the house of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / YHUH / Yahuah, and for all that was laid out for the house to repair it.
13 Howbeit (However) there were not made for the house of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / YHUH / Yahuah bowls of silver, snuffers, basons, trumpets, any vessels of gold, or vessels of silver, of the money that was brought into the house of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / YHUH / Yahuah:
14 But they gave that to the workmen, and repaired therewith the house of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / YHUH / Yahuah.
15 Moreover they reckoned not with the men (they did not require an accounting from the men), into whose hand they delivered the money to be bestowed on workmen: for they dealt faithfully.
16 The trespass money and sin money was not brought into the house of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / YHUH / Yahuah: it was the priests’.
The End of Jehoash’s Reign
17 Then Hazael king of Syria went up, and fought against Gath, and took it: and Hazael set his face to go up to Jerusalem.
18 And Jehoash king of Judah took all the hallowed (sacred) things that Jehoshaphat, and Jehoram, and Ahaziah, his fathers, kings of Judah, had dedicated, and his own hallowed (sacred) things, and all the gold that was found in the treasures of the house of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 / YHUH / Yahuah, and in the king’s house, and sent it to Hazael king of Syria: and he went away from Jerusalem.
19 And the rest of the acts of Joash, and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?
20 And his servants arose (got up), and made a conspiracy (a secret evil plan), and slew (killed) Joash in the house of Millo, which goeth (went) down to Silla.
21 For Jozachar the son of Shimeath, and Jehozabad the son of Shomer, his servants, smote (struck) him, and he died; and they buried him with his fathers in the city of David: and Amaziah his son reigned in his stead (place).

Yah יה (H3050) is made of י (y = Yad) & הּ (ah = Hay) which means YAH (יה = The Creator),
u ו (u = Uau) = add
shua שוע (H7769) = to cry out > ש (sh = Shan / Shin) + u ו (u = Uau) + ע (a = Ayin)
