Dear Friends

Today we go on to the Commentary on Esther Part I (F017). It concerns Chapters 1 to 3. In chapter 1 we see the development of the Persian Provinces into the 120 Satraps under the Seven Principal Governors. The symbolism of the texts is much more involved and relates to the position of Judah and the activities going on in relation to the way that the rabbinical authorities see the text developed and also the way that the text is used to refer to the Messiah and the Church of God developing into the last days and the final wars of the end. The text refers to the world structure under Satan and then the Messiah. The structure was to extend to the Salvation of the gentiles but that was resisted by Israel and also Judah.

The concept of the unalterable aspects of the declarations of God was also displayed in the Laws of the Medes and Persians: the concepts of the honour of the heads of families. The concepts were also conveyed in the letters being sent to every area in their own language also extended to the salvation of the nations.  In chapter 2 we see the rabbinical understanding being incorrect. Israel failed to come correctly before God, and this was to effect all of Israel and on to Judah. The understanding of Mordecai and Esther is explained along with the complex meanings of the names and the Midrashic explanations of the Hebrews and their messianic implications.  The implications of the Lineage of Mordecai are discussed. The limitations on other rabbinical understandings are explained and the Soncino explanations are also examined. The church remains hidden until the last days.  The concept of Mordecai as Messiah being portrayed through to the church in the last days is examined as are the implications of the House of the Women. The concepts of the Feasts and the Second Advent and the Marriage Supper of the Lamb are developed.

In Chapter 3 we proceed to the Benjamite Agagite enmity and we deal with 3:1-5 with Haman and Mordecai. We see the development of the casting of Lots for the determination of the pogrom. The significance of Adar is also discussed regarding the birth of Moses. This was immediately prior to the entry to the Promised Land. This has direct relevance to the entry to the Promised Land for the Millennial System under Messiah. The bribe offered by Haman is also discussed. So also is the signet ring of importance. The return of the funds has also relevance to the fate of the nation. The symbolism is of importance to the fate of Israel and the Nations in the last days as we also see in Parts II and III.

Remember also we are now about to undertake WWIII as the War of the Sixth Trumpet. Germany has now issued a statement that the War will develop by 2025.  It is doubtful that it will last that long before it explodes upon us. It is very doubtful that the elections in the US will be allowed to play out and for Trump to stop the war. The Globalists are getting very anxious, and they may act to force it now quickly.

Pray for our people and their capacity to turn and repent and be saved.
