4679 Torah.
MARK
4680
Mar-Yah in Aramaic text.
4681
The King was here and Yisrael was about to be restored and enter the kingdom.
4682
A fulfillment of the promise that Yisrael would multiply like fishes in the midst of the earth in Genesis 48:16.
Fishermen trained by Yahshua certainly knew how to catch the multitudes of Yisrael through the Great Commission.
4683
See comments for Matthew 4:15.
4684
That is the primary reason for His coming. To reach Yisraelites in all their towns both in Judah and all the
nations.
4685
The real Yahshua encouraged His disciples to follow Torah.
4686
The ingathering of Yisrael.
4687
The four men symbolic of the four corners, or four winds of the earth, bringing sick and lost Yisraelites to the
Master.
4688
Which is why Yahshua was YHWH the Sent One from YHWH the Greater. YHWH can forgive sins on earth as it is
done in the heavens.
4689
Neither, only YHWH can do both.
4690
A reference to Yisrael’s promised multitudes.
4691
In Scripture, the sick are equated with the wayward, or backslidden First Covenant sheep of lost Yisrael.
4692
Meaning Messiah’s mission was to renew the wineskin, not the wine of Torah. Yisrael is the wineskin and
Renewed Covenant Yisrael is the new wineskin.
4693
The term “high priest” is found only in the Peshitta. In the Peshitta and the Greek, the name “Aviathar” appears
here rather than his father Ahimelech. Ahimelech was merely a priest in Dawid's time, whereas in the Peshitta,
Yahshua reveals that Ahimelech’s son Aviathar was the High Priest, while his father was merely a priest.
4694
Kal VaChomer. Weightier versus lighter matters. When two Torah principles that are both valid seem to
contradict, the weightier, or more important allows action that often violates, or seems to violate the lesser matters.
The overriding principle in the spirit of Torah is what is called yeshuat nefesh, or the saving of life, which takes
higher precedent than any other statute, and can include breaking all 613 commands to save a single human life.
This is the principal at work here. Dawid would have died without food. And that took precedence over the Shabbat,
especially since the Shabbat was made for man, and if a man were dead, what good would the Shabbat do for him?
4695
Efrayimites.
4696
Jews.
4697
For all twelve tribes.
4698
Promised multitudes.
4699
In the pashat, or literal understanding, Yahshua explains how illogical their argument is since s.a.tan would be
interested in casting out clean messengers but never himself. In the remez/hint, He is stating the principle, that so
long as Yisrael remains divided into two houses, or malchutim, they will be open to various forms of division and
diverse fallings and failings, that would not take place were the kingdom already restored to Yisrael.
4700
Attributing the works of Yahshua to s.a.tan's power. No believer would willfully do that as did the Pharisees.
4701
The sea in Scripture is a type of the world and by sitting in the sea with His disciples, He is portraying that
through His word all those whom the 12 disciples represent scattered in the nations will come to His truth and His
message of restoration and healing.
4702
Believing Yisraelites get the message directly while those outside of believing Yisrael must come through
parables. So parables were given to reveal history and future revelation to regathered Yisrael, while blinding the
eyes of those outside, in order to force them to inquire on their own.
4703
Yisrael redeemed and forgiven is the good solid soil that receives His word.
4704
Once Yisrael receives Messiah's teaching, we are to let our truth and light shine in all the House of Yisrael.
4705
A spiritual law.
4706
Since we don’t know where exactly every lost sheep is, we are to scatter the word of the kingdom to all four
corners of the globe so that it can reach our brothers, and then they can be touched and appear as fruits in the
kingdom.
4707
A clear reference to Yisrael’s beginnings with Abraham, and the growth to the present day, where there is so
much leaven in both houses, one does not know where to begin to clear house. Thankfully Messiah Yahshua does
know and has been doing so.
4708
In the hint, or remez level this account teaches us that for 2,000 years (symbolized by the 2,000 pigs) – the time
between Yahshua’s comings – both houses of Yisrael would enter into the pigs, or into pagan practice and worship,
resulting in death in the sea symbolizing the exile and spiritual death into the nations.
