Bshalach When he let go: Exodus 13:1717:16.

I.

The Portions of Exodus are extremely important. They serve as patterns of the future Greater Exodus that lies imminently before us. Thus, as we glean from them, we move with great care in order to not miss hidden nuggets that will allow us to walk with confidence in the future. Our Parsha is titled: , bshalach, whose definition is translated When he let go. Its root is the word #7971, shalach, which is rendered, to send, let go, send away, to divorce. If we look into the root stem, the Shin-Lamed, forms the word sal, a masc. noun meaning a grievous sin worthy of death (Uzzah). By attaching the letter Chet, the pictograph of new beginnings, life or a fence, we can see inferred here that someone is guilty of a sin unto death and yet a fence of protection is built around them and new life ensues. If we pursue further we find who is being referenced by looking at the gematria of shalach, which is 338, the same as the Hebrew word #3831, lebush, a noun translated, clothing, garment, but which is also a metaphor for a wife. Again, this pattern should serve as cause for humility. As we Come out of Babylon, a stark reminder of our past tendencies toward pagan perversions should cause us to walk humbly and with reverence toward not only YHVH who delivered us - but as we engage others coming out, lest we forget who we were in our treatment of them. It is no coincidence the only use of this word SAL is connected with the priest Uzzah, #5798, ` Uzza', in 2Sam. 6:7 where we see judgment rendered to one who mishandled the Ark while in the fenced place, reminiscent of Adam & Eve in the garden! Ironically, the gematria of Uzza equals 78, the same value as the Hebrew word lechem bread! This name Uzza is itself intriguing. From the Ayin-Zayin root which means basically, strength, it can also be rendered as goat, specifically, a goat for sacrifice. With the Alef attached, which infers the head or strong one or chief one, it would seem that Uzzahs name embodied the declaration of one who represented the AZ The strong one that would become the sacrifice. However, just as with every Hebrew word, a curse can be found as well. It would seem that by intentionally mishandling the Ark, Uzzah is rejecting the very One represented by it. Again, each time we uncover something else, we are seeing more of the conflict that involves Pharaoh rejecting YHVH and the confrontation that results. This rehearsal is

teaching us of Adams original grievous sin and rebellion and the conflict arising from it, which sets every man against YHVH unless we accept the sacrifice of Yahshua and His covering. This pattern will be prevalent during the Greater Exodus! Notwithstanding we witnessed the interactions of others against Moshe who represented that same Ark and since collectively, we form the body of Messiah (1Cor. 12:27 *note verse 25) mishandling one another becomes a tenuous endeavor! The gematria of the entire phrase, Bshalch, , equals 340, the same value as #5341, natzar, which means to guard, or keep, to observe, as in the Covenant. How we observe it is reflected in how we treat others in the process! Again, the same value, 340 is also that of Netzer, which means Branch Messiah, so we cannot separate handling the Ark-Messiah, from how we handle our Brothers in Messiah whether we acknowledge them as brothers or not is not our business! 340 is also the value of the word Cepher, which means book. It was this Book that was shown to Abraham and his generations in Gen. 15:5 which incidentally, has 70 Hebrew letters representing the 70 of Jacob who go down into Egypt. The first time this number is seen is in Gen. 1:7 where YHVH separates the waters of creation. It is these waters which have a mystical connection to the waters of libation poured out at Tabernacles the ONLY festival acknowledged being for both HOUSES Ephraim & Judah! These waters represent the chaotic waters of the womb being separated from the seminal waters/seed of YHVH, only to be restored, made Ecad in Messiah! These waters can only be accessed during Tabernacles and upon climbing the 15 steps of ascension, all the while declaring our repentance and restoration as a People! The Mystery of these steps of Ascension the Songs of Ascent, are seen in Psalms 120 -134. The Book of Psalms is divided into 5 groups paralleling the 5 books of Torah and this 5th group, the Songs of Ascent, connect to Deuteronomy or Devarim WORDS! How do we handle them? This beautiful illustration is seen in Solomons Temple designed in the form of a Man this ARK! The "Secret of Solomon's Winding Staircase" is the connection of the divine masculine the seminal waters to the divine feminine the waters of the womb within. A Birdseye view of Solomon's Temple would have revealed the image of a man sitting, the dome being the head. The secret places of the winding stairs represented the Double Helix DNA strand and all the secrets it holds. The stairways consisted of 15 steps; in the mysterious verses above, the Bride shares what the Bridegroom said to her. He lets her know that her true identity is concealed in the "secret place of the stairs."

The release of the fullness of the Holy Spirit the Ruach, as in Gen. 1:3, is the activation of your dormant DNA - that unknown 97% of you that scientist call, "junk or junk DNA." We are being conformed into His image as we go out of Babylon-Egypt! Song of Solomon 2:14: O my dove, [that art] in the clefts of the rock, in the secret [places] of the stairs, let me see thy countenance, let me hear thy voice; for sweet [is] thy voice, and thy countenance [is] comely. As Israel is being driven out BShalach, they are headed to Mt. Sinai and just before arriving there, they stop at a place called both 8057# rephadim, (Ex. 17:1) translated as rests or stay, but it can also be rendered balusters the supports in a set of stairs. It is here that we also see the Massah and Meribah encounter where Israel finds they cannot drink of the waters yet there is sin in this camp the waters are bitter and must be drank. Massah is translated, trial, while Meribah is defined as contention, strife. They still have strife, division, contention, in their midst and if they cannot handle inter-relating with each other they will not be able to become One with YHVH, as in Gen. 1:7 the waters of the womb are separated from the seminal waters of His Seed - thus The Branch Netzer has to die, being cut off and thrown into the waters! Ironically, when asked for a sign of His Messiah ship, Yahshua said only the sign of Jonah would be given. Song of Sol 2:14 has 71 letters, equal to the value of Yonah, the One thrown into the waters in both Gen. 8:8 and Jonah. If we mishandle this dove, this Ark, this Branch, the Brother of our Brothers we will not ascend the stairway of intimacy and the Living Waters will never be ours to drink! The word rephadim has a value of 344; this place of the STAIRS is thus connected to another word #5614, Cpharad, which means separated the place of exile. Funny, it has the root cepher, book, with the addition of the Dalet Door. The Person of the Book, the Ark, and the One who longs for His bride as she is Bshalach sent out of Pharaohs house stands at the door. We can enter in or remain exiled. The choice is ours!
