Footnotes
240 | A Revolution (A.K.A. Generation) Strong’s #1755, dor. A revolution, generation. Derived from dur (#1752) to move in a circle, gyrate. It properly means a revolution and is used in the sense of time. The verb is found in two places, “A chosen of the sheep take, and also revolve [dur] the Bones underneath her. Cause to boil her boilings, also her bones have boiled in her middle.” Ezekiel 24:5 literal For a good is a hot-one in your courts from a thousand. I have chosen guarding the threshold in the house of my elohe from revolving [dur] in tents of wickedness. For a sun and a shield Yahweh elohim, favor and honor Yahweh is giving, he is not withholding good—those walking in completeness.” Psalm 84:11-12 literal Reading these literally we can learn something about the Psalmist having once been revolving in the tents of wickedness before choosing to guard the house. The figurative enigmas of bones revolving underneath an oppressive covering and darkness and the idea of revolutions [generations] all start to come together into a cohesive picture that we can actually make sense of. Then we begin to walk in completeness. “Amen, I am saying to you all that the revolution of this one will not pass by until the whole of these ones come TO BE.” Matt. 24:34 literal |
