Footnotes
| 581 | Hebrew בַּיּ֣וֹם הַה֗וּא. In-the-Hot-one of Himself. Or, The Hot-one of Him. The pronoun he + the definite article the means a very specific person or thing. Translators default to the more ambiguous “that” which is not a relative pronoun at all. Who is “that one” other than “himself”? If not himself than we are left with an unidentified definite hot-one. The covenant is not merely a historical event between Raised-Father and Yahweh but a prophetic event (as with all of these) showing us the covenant he makes us in the Hot-one, our Hot-one (1 Thes. 5:5). |
| 582 | Strong’s #3772, karat. To cut off. This is the standard word for covenant “making” and is based on the imagery of circumcision in which the foreskin is cut off, and those who are uncircumcised are cut off (Gen. 17:14). Remember this as, things get more interesting in Chapter 17. |
| 583 | Is Father-of-Tumult a “tree” and the covenant a “branch”? |
