The Married Messiah

From my book The Testimony of Yahuchanon by Rav Sha’ul

 

 

The Great Omission

The fact the Scriptures omit any reference to his being married or not, is proof he was married! When it comes to the ‘norm’ then it is assumed. For example: It does not say he obeyed The Law not to murder! We assume he did not commit murder because if he did; it would have been specifically stated because that would be out of the norm and we assume he obeyed Yahuah’s Commandments. To claim he did not obey the command to marry and be fruitful, because the Scriptures do not say he did, is paramount to making the claim that he is a murderer because the Scriptures do not say he obeyed the command not to kill someone.

 

The Scriptures do not have to specifically say he obeyed the command concerning murder… we are to assume this as that is the norm; same thing with marriage as it is a commonplace in that culture and generally assumed and considered shared knowledge between the writer and the audience.

 

Common sense is a wonderful thing!

 

It is only if he was not married, would that be out of character for a man in that society then it would need to be specifically stated (such as Sha’ul the Apostle). It is the man who is the anointed and it is his mission that is important in Scripture, not his wife and children. The Scriptures have a general respect for personal life. What emerges from the recorded life of Yahusha and the historical record is that of loving husband and a devoted wife. We have been taught to ignore all context of history, the Hebrew Culture, and Scripture and we blindly accept human traditions of the Greeks without question… to our own destruction.

 

2 Kephah/2 Peter 3
Sha'ul writes the same way in The Mystery Language in all his letters, speaking in letters of these matters. His letters contain some things that are hard to understand, which ignorant and unstable people (Greeks) twist, as they do the other Scriptures (they twist every other book and author's writings too), to their own destruction.

 



 

Fulfilling The Heavenly Scroll on Earth as it is written in the stars

 

Again, The Messiah must fulfill Yahuah’s Will both as a human being as communicated in The Torah, but also The Father’s Will as it is written in The Heavenly Scroll and communicated through His Prophets. The Battle of the Ages (revealed in the very first verses of The Bible Genesis 3:15 – ‘he will crush your head, and you will strike his heel’) written in the stars between The Son of Man and The Dragon manifests itself in the physical life of The Messiah as he fulfills The Heavenly Scroll. Yahusha is the fulfillment of The Son of Man (ORION, OPHIUCHUS) and battles the children of The Dragon (Jewish Chief Priests and Pharisees). The Dragon wins a temporary battle and succeeds in striking the heel of The Son of Man (Yahusha is executed). The Dragon quickly realizes she has lost the war when The Son of Man then defeats death and crushes the head of the serpent. All written in The Heavenly Scroll then fulfilled in the flesh in the life of Yahusha The Messiah.

 


Ophiuchus battling The Serpent who strikes his heel and he crushes its head.

Yahusha must fulfill The Heavenly Scroll, we should expect that Yahusha’s ministry would begin with his own wedding as he fulfills his role as Groom on Earth as it is written in The Heavenly Scroll.

Hebrews 10:7
Then I said, Here I am--it is written about me in The Heavenly Scroll-- I have come to do Your Will, my Elohim! (Matthew 6:10)

 

Matthew 6:10
Your Kingdom (declared in heaven Matthew 4:17) come, Your Will be done, on Earth as it is (written) in (The) Heaven (ly Scroll Psalm 19).

 

Psalm 19:1-6
1 The Heavenly Scroll are telling of the Glory of Yahuah (the Glory of Yahuah is Yahusha! 2 Corinthians 4:6); And their expanse is declaring the Work of His Hands. 2 Day to day (The Heavenly Scroll) pours forth speech, And night to night reveals knowledge (and it is for a LACK of that knowledge we are destroyed… Hosheah/Hosea 4:6). 3 There is no speech, nor are there words; Their (signs of the Zodiac/constellations) voice is not heard. 4 Their line (Zodiac means line/path/way of the Sun) has gone out through (and seen by) all the Earth, And their (signs of The Heavenly Scroll) utterances to the end of the world. In them (the constellations) He has placed a tent for the Sun (the Zodiac), 5 Which is as a Bridegroom (Yahusha) coming out of his chamber; It rejoices as a strong man (ORION The Son of Man) to run his course (of a wedding to pay the dowry, redeem his Bride, marry his Bride, and rule Creation – The Feast Cycle). 6 Its (the Sun's) rising is from one end of the heavens (The Heavenly Scroll), And its circuit (Zodiac means circuit or path or The Way) to the other end of them; And there is nothing hidden from its Light/Revelation.

Isaiah 48:11-15
11 For My Own Sake, for My Own Sake I will do it; for how could dishonor come to My Name (Yahuah)? I will not give My glory (as Creator) to another (not even Yahusha Isaiah 44:24)! 12 Listen to Me, O Yahqob/Jacob and Yisrael/Israel, My Called; I am He; I am the Aleph, I also am the Tav (means ‘Unity and Perfection’ the ONE and ONLY God John 17:3). 13 My hand has laid the foundation of the Earth (He alone is Creator and did it all by Himself Isaiah 44:24), and My Right Hand has spanned (Authored) The Heavenly Scroll (Psalm 19); when I summon the Sun/stars/constellations together, they will minister together (to proclaim The Messiah/Plan of Salvation Psalm 19). 14 All of you, gather yourselves together and hear (what the stars proclaim day after day, night after night Psalm 19)! Who among them has foretold these things? Yahuah has loved him (spoken of in The Heavenly Scroll; Yahusha); He will do his pleasure on Babylon, and his arm will be on the Chaldeans. 15 I, even I, have spoken (LOGOS/DEBAR); yes, I have called him (Yahusha Luke 4:18). I have brought him (forth as The Branch as My Eternal High Priest see Zechariah Chapter 3), and his Way, (example of Mikveh, Circumcision, and Offering) will succeed in producing Righteousness and Resurrection, called The Way).


Fulfilling Yahuah’s Will and Commandments

 

The Human Marriage Covenant is the first and foremost covenant between a man and a woman and this is made evident by Yahusha’s own words. Yahusha came to obey Yahuah’s Commandments not break them or ignore them as if they do not apply to him because he is a God.

 

His human life is our example, he is not the exception to every rule, he is the “rule”.

 

We see in Matthew 19 below, that Yahusha understood it was Yahuah’s Will that a man and woman marry, and he would never violate His Father’s Will!

Matthew 19:4-6
4 Yahusha answered, Have you not read that from the beginning The Creator ‘made them male and female’ 5 and commanded, For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become One flesh? 6 So they are no longer two, but One flesh. Therefore, what Yahuah has joined together, let man not separate.

In that most basic of all Commandments and covenants we “bear fruit”. This is yet another Physical to Spiritual Parallel that in a Spiritual Marriage Covenant with our Groom; we (as the Bride) bear fruit unto The Kingdom of Yahuah. In that Marriage Covenant, the Bride and Groom govern together both in this physical life as a man/wife team and Spiritually govern Yahuah’s Creation in the eternal state.

Genesis 1:28
Yahuah Blessed the man and wife and commanded, Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the Earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky and over every living creature that moves on the ground.

 

Genesis 2:18
Yahuah Elohim said, It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper suitable for him.

Revelation 5:9,10
9 And they sang a new song: Worthy are You to take The Heavenly Scroll and open its seals, because You were slain (at the fullness of time / end of the Age of ARIES when the Lamb dies), and by your blood you purchased (paid the dowry/redeemed) for Yahuah those from every tribe and tongue and people and nation (to be your Bride). 10 You have made them into a Kingdom, Priests to serve our God, and they will reign on the Earth.

The question then should never have been “was Yahusha married?”; but rather “how could Yahusha fulfill The Heavenly Scroll on Earth and be obedient to Yahuah’s Instruction and not be married!”

 

On what Authority did Yahusha violate these most fundamental and foremost Commands of all and still lay claim to be The Messiah?

 

Yahusha’s Spiritual Destiny required training in his physical life as he was trained to perfection through trials and tribulation… including and especially marriage!

Hebrews 5:8,9
8 though he was a Son, yet he learned obedience (to Yahuah) by the things (human experiences) which he suffered (during his life on Earth to be trained to perfection). 9 And having been perfected (in this life for his role in the next), he became (after his life on Earth training) the Author of Eternal Salvation to all who obey follow his example (The Way).

If the example Yahusha set was that of violating the Marriage Covenant, not having children, acting inappropriate with other men in pubic… then that is what YOU should be doing in your life (1 John  2:6). We see In Zechariah Chapter 3, that once perfected in this life as The Groom, Priest, and King of his own household in his Marriage to Miriam Magdalene (like all men are through their own marriages by Divine Decree), he would then qualify to serve in those positions in his Father’s Household.

Zechariah 3:7
This is what Yahuah Almighty says: IF you will walk in obedience to Me and keep My Commandments (marriage and reproduction are the first two), THEN (once you are trained to Perfection through a life on Earth) you will govern My House (LEO/King) and have charge of My Courts (eternal Judge 2 Cor 5:10, TAURUS).

Not only would Yahusha be required to marry and bear fruit to fulfill The Heavenly Scroll and Yahuah’s Commandments to all mankind, he would have fulfilled the required prophecies of The Messiah that he would see his offspring!

Isaiah 53:10
Yet it was Yahuah's Will to crush him and cause him to suffer, and though Yahusha makes his life a guilt Offering, he will see his offspring and prolong his days, and the Will of Yahuah will prosper in his hand.

If Yahusha was an unmarried gay Greek demi-god with no offspring, he fails as The Messiah. Yahusha fulfilled every prophecy of The Coming King in his life. We see in Psalm 45, a detailed description of his marriage!

Psalm 45:1-17
My heart is stirred by a noble theme as I recite my verses for the King; my tongue is the pen of a skillful writer. You are the most excellent of men and your lips have been anointed with Grace, since Yahuah has blessed you forever.

Gird your sword on your side, you mighty one; clothe yourself with splendor and majesty.
In your majesty ride forth victoriously (ORION) in the cause of Truth, Humility and Justice (TAURUS); let your right hand achieve awesome deeds.

Let your sharp arrows pierce the hearts (CAPRICORNUS) of the King’s enemies; let the nations fall beneath your feet (LEO). Your Throne, O Elohim (Divine Representative of Yahuah’s Power and Majesty – h430 ‘elohim’ Thayer’s – “1 plural in number. a. rulers, judges, either as Divine representatives at sacred places or as reflecting the Divine Majesty and Power of God”), will last for ever and ever; a Scepter of Justice (TAURUS) will be the Scepter of your Kingdom (LEO).

You love Righteousness (VIRGO) and hate wickedness (SAGITTARIUS); therefore Yahuah, your God (and my God John 20:7), has set you above your companions by anointing you (Luke 4:17,18) with the oil of joy (he is NOT a god, he is our brother and has preeminence as Firstborn and heir to The Throne).

All your robes are fragrant with myrrh and aloes and cassia; from palaces adorned with ivory the music of the strings makes you glad. Daughters of Kings are among your honored women; at your right hand is the Royal Bride in gold of Ophir.

10 Listen, Daughter, and pay careful attention: Forget your people and your father’s house. 11 Let the King be enthralled by your beauty; Honor him, for he is your Master (John 20:2). 12 The city of Tyre will come with a gift, people of wealth will seek your favor.

13 All Glorious is the Princess within her chamber; her gown is interwoven with gold. 14 In embroidered garments she is led to the King; her virgin companions follow her— those brought to be with her.
15 Led in with Joy and Gladness, they enter the palace of the King. 16 Your Sons will take the place of your fathers; you will make them Princes throughout the land.

17 I will perpetuate your memory through all generations; therefore the Nations will Praise you for ever and ever.

Either Yahusha fulfilled these prophecies in his life qualifying him to be The Messiah or he didn’t. Be careful what you pick and choose to believe, it is all or nothing.

 

Miracles are not proof he is The Messiah… Prophecy is.

 

 

 

Miriam’s ossuary found in Yahusha’s Family Tomb

 

In recent years, archeologist have discovered Yahusha's Family Tomb... Jewish tradition in the first century was that only blood relatives or spouses are buried in family Tombs. Miriam’s ossuary (bone box) was discovered in Yahusha's tomb along with Miriam his mother, and his brothers... the only way she would have been in that tomb is if she was Yahusha's wife. There were no other Disciple’s ossuaries found in that tomb, only “his loved ones” … his immediate family and wife.

 

 

 

The Jewish Wedding Tradition

 

In the Hebrew Culture of the first century, it is tradition that the Groom’s mother be in charge of the wedding feast. The primary job would be to watch over the wine supply to ensure the guests do not run out. It is the Groom’s responsibility to provide the wine, but the Groom is busy with the wedding activities, so he requires his mother’s assistance. If the wine was running low, the mother of the Groom would inform the Groom who would see to it more wine was provided for the guests. As I will show later in this chapter, that is the roles that Yahusha and his mother Miriam/Mary played in the wedding that began his quest to fulfill The Heavenly Wedding written in the stars.

 

I will also prove textually from the Original Greek that what we have written in our English Bible is the exact opposite of what it says in Greek! The literal translation of the “miracle of turning water into wine” proves it was Yahusha’s Wedding.

John 2:1-5
1 Yahusha was marrying Miriam/Mary of Bethany in Cana of Galilee on the Third Day of the week (Physical to Spiritual Parallel of when the Bearer of Living Water and Manna Mikveh’s the Earth; on the Third Day/Kingdom Reign, the Age of AQUARIUS, after the Age of PISCES/2 Prophetic Days when he paid the dowry for his Bride). Miriam (Mary), the mother of Yahusha, was there in charge of the wedding activities; 2 with Yahusha (the Groom) and the Disciples he invited to his wedding. 3 Miriam (Mary) the mother of the Groom (Yahusha) noticed they were deficient of wine and went to the Groom and informed him so he could bring out more wine (In Hebrew weddings, it is the responsibility of the Groom to provide the wine; and it is the responsibility of the Mother of the Groom to be in charge of the wedding feast and to watch over the wine supply because the Groom was busy with the wedding activities). 4 Yahusha says with concern what can I do (g1473 – ‘concern, what have I to do’) for you (g4771 ‘to you’) Mother (g3384)? (now his mother, the one in charge of the wedding feast, informs him they are low on wine) Show to me (g1473 – ‘to me’) which (g5101what, which’) wine skins; and also (g2532 – ‘also) how many so I can refill them? I have limited time (g5610 – ‘limited time), I (g1473 – ‘I’) do not have to be present (g2240 – ‘be present) in the wedding activities just yet. 5 His mother said to the servants of the wedding; do whatever my son, the Groom, says to do.

I will break those verses down and prove this is what the Original Greek says! It would have been highly offensive for Miriam to be “looking over the wine” at another man’s wedding and an insult to the Mother of the actual Groom. It would have been even more offensive if a random guest did not give the Groom the honor of providing the wine!

 

The “miracle” at that wedding, if it were ‘not’ Yahusha’s wedding, is that Yahusha and his mother Miriam were not thrown out for insulting the Wedding Party at another man’s wedding!

 

Yahusha and his mother would never act inappropriate at another wedding event in that way.

 

 

 

Public display of affection between “loved ones”

 

While the Greeks twisted the Scriptures and went out of their way to not specify who the Disciple Yahusha Loved most was (who his loved one was) and portray a lawless very effeminate long haired possibly “gay” Greek demi-god; this is not what the Scripture reveal about my King.

The Hebrew Culture was not a gay culture as was the Greeks and Romans. It was not appropriate for a man, or young man, to lay his head in the lap of an older man. This was the custom of the Greeks as older men had what they called “younger brothers (wink wink)” who were basically gay male prostitutes. They call this Pederasty (where we get the word pedophile) and it was literally “the principle cultural model” of that debased society. A society that conquered the Jews, took the Holy Scriptures and TRANSLATED them into Greek and that is where you get your English Bible!

 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pederasty_in_ancient_Greece
Pederasty in ancient Greece
Pederasty in ancient Greece was a socially acknowledged romantic relationship between an adult male (the erastes) and a younger male (the eromenos) usually in his teens. It was characteristic of the Archaic and Classical periods. The influence of pederasty on Greek culture of these periods was so pervasive that it has been called "the principal cultural model for free relationships between citizens."

 

Men in the Hebrew Culture simply did not act in such a way in public or private as to lie in each other’s lap and recline with their head on each other’s shoulders that is Pederasty! That is an abomination to our Father for men to behave indecently with another man (or even a single woman) as a man would interact with a wife.

Furthermore, a woman did not sit at the feet and travel with a male Rabbi/Teacher, Luke 10:39. She most certainly did not travel and stay overnight with a group of men! A single woman did not interact with a single man in public as to lay down her head on his lap and recline on his chest and anoint him with expensive oils and wipe down his body with her hair. These are all clearly very intimate interaction reserved between a man and wife.

If Yahusha behaved this way in public with other men or traveled for days with a single woman who interacted with him in such intimate ways that was not his wife… he would not have been accepted as a Rabbi and The Messiah… he would have been stoned to death.

 

 

 

 

The “Other Gospels”

Several Gnostic writings, usually dated to 2nd and 3rd centuries, paint a drastically different picture of Miriam Magdalene from that of the Canonical Gospels. In Gnostic writings Miriam Magdalene is seen as one of the most important of Yahusha’s Disciples, whom he Loved more than the others (maybe that is why these accounts were rejected by the Roman Catholic Church and left out of the cannon). The Gnostic Gospel of Philip names Miriam Magdalene as Yahusha’s life companion/wife. Gnostic writings describe tensions and jealousy between Miriam Magdalene and other Disciples, especially Peter. Not because the other men were gay, but because as Yahusha’s Wife Miriam was trusted and loved above them and privy to private conversations (as all wives are with their beloved husbands).

Gospel of Philip
There were three who always walked with the Master: Miriam (Mary) his mother, and her sister, and Miriam Magdalene who was called his companion (Wife).

To make this claim (that Miriam was his beloved wife) and maintain consistency with Scripture, the theory is suggested that where it appears that Miriam was there with “another Disciple whom Yahusha loved” were later modifications, hastily done to authorize the Gospel in the late 2nd century (because the Greeks did not want a human married Christ and any Gospel that spoke of this was not authorized). Both scenes are claimed to have inconsistencies both internally and in reference to the synoptic Gospels, possibly coming from rough editing to make Miriam Magdalene and the Beloved Disciple appear as different persons.

It is my contention that the words “disciple he loved most” is simply a misplaced modifier! It was place next to “another disciple” instead of next to Miriam in translation!

 

 

 

 

The role of a wife in the burial of her Beloved

In the Hebrew Culture of the first century, it was traditionally the role of the one closest to the one who died to prepare his body for burial. That role would be his wife’s. If he was not married, then his mother would have that HONOR. Miriam Magdalene (same person as Mary of Bethany) prepared his body with fine oils to present himself to his Father and then prepared his body for burial as a wife should with spices in his tomb. If she were not his wife, it would have been an insult to his Mother and Miriam of Bethany/Magdalene would have had no access to his body

 

 

 

 before or after his execution! Much like Miriam, his wife, was allowed to accompany Yahusha at his trail!

Miriam was known to be his wife, and never abandoned her Beloved

 

Miriam Magdalene was allowed in his trial where only relatives could go into the court room. This is why Peter was denied access and not allowed in the court room!

John 18:15,16
15 Simon Peter and the ‘other Disciple’ whom Yahusha Loved (Miriam Magdalene) were following Yahusha (Miriam Magdalene never left the side of her husband). Because this Disciple was known to the high priest (to be his wife), she went with Yahusha into the high priest’s courtyard (you had to be related to the prisoner to enter the courts), 16 but Peter had to wait outside at the door (because he was no relation to Yahusha). The other Disciple (Miriam Magdalene), who was known to the high priest (to be his wife), came back, spoke to the servant girl on duty there and brought Peter in.

It was common knowledge among the Chief Priests that Yahusha was a married man and his wife was Miriam Magdalene the “Disciple known to the High Priests” and therefore she was allowed into the courtyard at his trial. The Chief Priests did not know the identity any of the other Disciples, that is how they were able to deny him and escape into hiding at his execution.

 

 

 

 

 

Miriam is named specifically by John at his execution as the one Yahusha loved most i.e. his Loved One

In John 19:25-27, Miriam is named specifically. In this Chapter, we have proof, as the ONLY ones at Yahusha’s feet were his Family/Wife. When Yahusha looked down at them he instructed his wife to care for his Mother... there were NO OTHER Disciples there at his feet only his wife stood by him every step of the way, all those "tough guys" took off and ran!

Mark 14:49,50
49 this has happened that the Scriptures would be fulfilled.” 50 Then all His Disciples deserted him and fled.

 

Yahshub/Job 19:13,14
13 "My brothers stay far away from me. 14 My friends are complete strangers to me."

Miriam Magdalene did not run and hide, her love for her husband far surpassed that of his other Disciples (as it should). So, if she was a mere “follower/friend” of Yahusha’s this prophecy FAILED because she was there with her Beloved the entire time from preparing him with oil, to witnessing his trial, to being at his feet when executed, to preparing his body for burial, to grieving at the tomb after he died, to being the first one Yahusha came to after his Resurrection. She never “fled” and was never “far from him” because she was not in that category of brother/friend/Disciple, she was his Beloved Wife whom he Loved in different way and had a much closer relationship with, and they were “One”!

John tells us explicitly that Miriam Magdalene was the only Disciple at that execution standing right next to Yahusha's Mother in the text just before we see Yahusha instruct Miriam Magdalene to care for her Mother-in-law.

John 19:25-27
25 Near the wooden stake of Yahusha stood his mother (Miriam), his mother’s sister (Martha), Mary the wife of Cleophas, and Mary Magdalene (the Disciple whom he Loved, his Wife). 26 When Yahusha saw his mother there, and the Disciple whom he Loved standing next to her (Miriam Magdalene, all the other Disciples had fled for their lives and went into hiding Mark 14:50, his brothers ran Yahshub/Job 19:13,14, only his wife stood by his side the entire time, from their Wedding in Bethany to begin his ministry, to anointing him for burial, to weeping at his feet on the stake, to mourning at his tomb, and she was the first one Yahusha came to after his Resurrection because she was his loved one/Wife), he said to her, Mother, here is your Daughter (in law), 27 and to his Wife he said, Here is your Mother (in law). From that time on, his mother was taken in and cared for by Yahusha’s Family through marriage (Mary, Martha, and Lazarus) and taken into their home (This is where Yahusha lived and spent most of his time when he was not traveling).

 

 

 

 

The False Messiah has no desire for women, not the True Messiah

 

I know we have all been misled by the Greeks who were overwhelmingly homosexual in that culture and twisted the Scriptures to portray their "Jesus" as having no desire for women. Even portray our King with younger men (John) laying around in his lap and laying their head on his chest committing Pederasty. This is an attribute of the FLASE MESSIAH not the True Messiah of Yisrael/Israel!

Daniel 11:37
Neither shall he regard the God of his fathers, nor the desire of women, nor regard any god: for he shall magnify himself above all.

This idea that Yahusha was engaged in Pederasty is absurd in the Hebrew Culture. This is why they never mention who this "Disciple Yahusha Loved" by name, the Greeks were making sure by falsifying His Word through translation that he could be worshiped as their gay demi-god and they could justify their Pederasty.

 

 

 

 

Miriam Magdalene receives honorable mention!

 

Miriam Magdalene is mentioned specifically (12 times) in the Gospels more than any other Disciple. She is mentioned indirectly many more time as playing the Key Role in his Life as his most loyal and faithful companion.

 

 

 

 

 

Yahusha spent most of his time in Bethany at Miriam’s home

 

Miriam Magdalene was from the town Magdala, but later relocated to the town of Bethany with her husband Yahusha, sister Martha, and brother Lazarus to be more centrally located for Yahusha’s ministry travels. She is sometimes called Mary of Bethany, one in the same.

Yahusha spent most of his time in Bethany (his home with Miriam Magdalene and her sister Martha and brother Lazarus who were Yahusha’s in-laws). This is why they “assumed” Yahusha would have been there when Lazarus became ill and Yahusha would have healed Lazarus. That is where he retreated to be with his family and rest from his travels and regroup… he was already on this way “home” when he got the news and intentionally delayed his return home for 2 days (we will break that down later in this book).

Miriam Magdalene (his wife) and Martha (his sister-in-law) had unique access to Yahusha no others on the pages of the Gospels had… even as far as to come to him and ask him to raise their brother (Yahusha’s brother-in-law) Lazarus from the dead! Again, we see the same loving expression used of Lazarus that he was “the one Yahusha loved” because Lazarus was one of his loved ones i.e. brother-in-law. Notice with Lazarus, however, he is named by name by the Greeks (as he was no threat to their Pederasty or pagan religion of The Mother of God being the Queen of Heaven).

Bethany was his home with his wife and family which is why he had to risk going back to Bethany even after the children of The Dragon tried to murder him.

John 11:1-8
1 Therefore his sisters sent unto him, saying, Master 1 Now a certain man from Bethany, the brother of Miriam Magdalene and her sister Martha, named Lazarus was sick 2 (Lazarus was the brother of Miriam Magdalene who anointed Yahusha with ointment and wiped his feet with her hair). 3 Because Lazarus was sick, his sisters sent word to Yahusha, saying; Rabbi, your loved one, our brother Lazarus, is sick. 4 When Yahusha heard, he said: This sickness will not lead to his death but will be used as a physical illustration. I am the fulfillment of The Glory of Yahuah proclaimed in the stars (The Heavenly Scroll Psalm 19:1 – ‘the stars tell of the Glory of Yahuah and declare His Handiwork’), that the Son of Yahuah may be Glorified as the fulfillment of The Heavenly Scroll through it (a Physical to Spiritual Parallel/Act of Power to as Yahusha manifests The Kingdom proclaimed in The Heavenly Scroll on Earth “as it is written in heaven” and confirms he is The Son of Man and fulfills AQUARIUS). 5 Now Yahusha loved Martha, Mary, and Lazarus (his loved ones/family); 6 However, when Yahusha had heard that Lazarus was sick, he waited two days to go to him (to illustrate that in The Heavenly Scroll there are 2 Prophetic Days, the Age of PISCES, before Yahusha would return as the Bearer of Living Water and Manna AQUARIUS raise the dead in covenant with him). 7 Then after two days (a Physical to Spiritual Parallel illustrating of The Age of PISCES), he said to his Disciples; Let us go into Yahudah/Judea again. 8 His Disciples said to him; Rabbi, why would you go back there the Yahudaim just recently tried to stone you?

However, when it came to his wife; her name was intentionally left out of the expression identifying her as “the one he loved most”. These are phrases describing family love as in wife and brother. When Yahusha was not traveling and teaching, he was at his home base at the home of his wife and her siblings in Bethany. That is why he was in Bethany at their home in secret having dinner together with those 3 alone just before The Passover when he was executed. He was spending very personal intimate time with his human family in private before he died!

John 12:1-8
1 Now six days before The Passover, Yahusha came to Bethany where his brother-in-law Lazarus lived. This is where Yahusha demonstrated Power from Yahuah to raise him from the dead (fulfilling the Bearer of Living Water and Manna AQUARIUS). 2 Mary and Martha made dinner and served Yahusha and Lazarus as they all dined together in private (no other Disciples were at his home). 3 Then Miriam, Yahusha’s Wife, took a pound of very rare ointment made of spikenard and anointed the feet of Yahusha, then wiped his feet with her hair filling the house with beautiful fragrance. 4 Then when one of his Disciples, Yahdah/Judas the Scicarii, son of Simon, heard of this he said; 5 Why was this ointment not sold for three hundred denarii and given to the poor? 6 (he said this, not because he was entrusted to manage the money collected to fund The Nazarene Movement) 7 But Yahusha instructed that she be left alone about it. Miriam, his Wife, had been saving this ointment for Yahusha’s Burial. 8 Yahusha said: For the poor you always have with you; but you do not always have me.

 

 

 

 

The Only witness to all 5 Key Events

 

Miriam Magdalene stands as the only witness to 5 key events:

1.        Yahusha’s preparation to go to his Father,

2.        Yahusha’s crucifixion,

3.        Yahusha’s preparation for burial & Yahusha’s burial,

4.        the discovery that his tomb was empty,

5.        and Yahusha’s showing himself post Resurrection.

 

She was one of only a couple to see where Yahusha was buried by Joseph of Arimathea, Mark 15:47 and Matthew 27:61 both name only two people: Miriam Magdalene and "the other Mary," who in Mark is "the mother of James." Luke 23:55 describes the witnesses as "the women who had come with Yahusha from Galilee." John 19:39–42 mentions no other witness to Joseph's burial of Yahusha except for Nicodemus. Mark 16:1 says "...Miriam Magdalene, Miriam (Mary) the mother of James, and Salome bought spices so that they might go to anoint Yahusha’s body." The connection with the earlier anointing of Yahusha, and his remarks then, was one of the arguments used in favor of the "composite Magdalene" that Mary of Bethany and Mary of Magdala were the same person, she just moved from Magdala to Bethany to be closer to her husband Yahusha as he traveled.
