Excerpt from The Kingdom Rav Sha'ul   The King’s Training by Rav Sha'ul   Like all of the sons of YHVH who are being trained to govern under Yahusha, Yahusha had to be “trained” through a life on Earth. Hebrews 2:10-18 14 Since the (future) children (of YHVH) have flesh and blood (by which they are trained by a life on Earth), he (Yahusha) too shared in their humanity (was trained by a life on Earth) so that by his death he, Yahusha, might break the power of him who holds the power of death—that is, the devil— 15 and free those who all their lives were held in slavery by their fear of death (not slavery to The Law). 16 For surely it is not angels Yahusha helps, but Abraham’s descendants (the bloodline of the sons of YHVH remains defined by the Abrahamic Covenant). 17 For this reason he (Yahusha) had to be made like them, fully human in every way (he was not half man half god), in order that he might become a merciful and faithful high priest in service to YHVH (he is YHVH’s High Priest, not YHVH in the flesh), and that he might make atonement for the sins of the people. 18 Because he himself suffered when he was tempted (trained in this life), he is able (qualified through training) to help those (brothers and sisters in the Family of YHVH) who are being tempted (in their training). So we see that before Yahusha would obtain his inheritance he had to be trained.  Yahusha’s unique role of Melchizedek (Ruling Zadok Priest) required Yahusha to be trained both in The Law to govern but also in The Law of the Priesthood to make atonement.  I cover this in great detail in the 4th book in this series Melchizedek and The Passover Lamb and will fully develop Yahusha’s role in my book The Yahushaic Covenant. Most people “assume” (mainly because they are taught so in Christianity) that Yahusha was born perfect (teaching he was literally YHVH in the flesh).  This is not the case, if it were Yahusha would have had no reason to be put through a life on Earth like the rest of us and certainly could not have died.  In fact, scripture teaches us that Yahusha was in not born perfect: Luke 2:40, 52 40 And the Child (Yahusha) grew and became strong in spirit (learn through physical to spiritual parallels), (and became) filled with wisdom; and the grace (favor) of YHVH was upon him. ... 52 And Yahusha increased in wisdom and stature and in favor with YHVH and men. Yahusha GREW in wisdom, strength, stature, etc. just like John the Baptist who was Yahusha’s teacher, (see Luke 1:80). This shows that Yahusha was not born "perfect" but BECAME perfected like all other righteous men of Israel (Yet Yahusha was the most Anointed One). Hebrews 1:4 4 having become so much better than the angels, as Yahusha has by inheritance obtained (after life training) a more excellent name than they (Yahusha wasn’t born with it; he had to earn the position of King). Hebrews 5:8-9 8 though Yahusha was a Son, yet he learned obedience (Yahusha wasn’t always perfectly obedient that had to be learned) by the things which he suffered. 9 And having been perfected (Yahusha wasn’t born perfect, he was trained to perfection), Yahusha became the author (forefather) of eternal salvation (the forerunner to obtain it) to all who obey him (enter into covenant with him and follow his example), Hebrews 7:28 28 For the law appoints as high priests men who have weakness (Yahusha included as he was a man in need of being perfected), but the word of the oath, which came after the law, appoints the Son who has been perfected (Yahusha was the first to achieve perfection and attain eternal life) forever.
