3-30-08 - DREAM - I was working in my office, trying to get my work
done. I came to a piece of paper that was folded the long way. Not
knowing what it was, I opened it and on it was a handwritten note from a
long time friend, telling me I could call him at ___ 1991. The
note stated that his sister Barbara and his friend Bob used to live there.
I didn't want to call before 6 p.m., not wanting to interrupt
dinner, but the next time I looked at the clock, it was 7:55 p.m.
I reached for the telephone, which was a digital phone, and I had
trouble balancing the piece of paper with the number on the telephone, and
I struggled to hit the 1 9 9 1. I don't recall dialing the 3 numbers
that normally come before the 4 digits.
When the connection was made, a woman answered the phone. She
sounded angelic, and I pictured her as elderly with white hair. I
asked for the person I was calling, and she said, "Oh! Barbara used
to live here."
I woke up before I could comment in return.

I lay in the dark, thinking about the dream and Jehovah's voice
boomed in my ear, "ROI.!"
I was so stunned at the suddenness and loudness of the voice, I
forgot to ask if there was a message.
NOTE: The Bible verse that came up the most with regard to the
name "Roi" was "God who sees" which refers to Gen. 16 where the Angel of
the Lord speaks as if the angel was the Lord and Hagar is promised a
child.
The very next night I dreamed that I woke up in a recovery room in a
hospital after I had just given birth to a child. Though I can't say the
two are connected for certain, the synchronicity/coincidence is
remarkable.
|
This is not the first Jehovah message I have received.
Here are the others.
9-29-04 As I woke up, I heard a booming
male voice which said: "ISRAEL: THE MARRIAGE BOND!"
"Jehovah! Is very hurt. He has built a nation which is being
destroyed from inside. He would appreciate help from the United
States to turn it around and Christianize it." |
6-3-98 - I woke up and instantly heard a telephone ring in my
left ear. I mentally said, "I am ready for a message."
I began to see a small graveyard. It was oval-shaped. A white
arm and hand appeared and began digging a deep hole in the soil and
bringing out objects which I eventually recognized to be the baby
Jesus laying in a 'cradle' and surrounded by baby animals. I then saw
another oval ring next to it and inside that ring, a full sized lamb
and lion were laying down inside it...side by side.

2-5-07 - A VISIT FROM THE ANGEL OF THE LORD AND JEHOVAH!
I was in a garage somewhere with a female friends. Our cars were
parked side by side.
We each had an infant and there was a man on the side who was going
to bless the babies.
Since her car was open on top - more like a pick up truck and mine
was closed on top, I carried my baby over to her car and lay her on her
blanket on her car just long enough to be blessed, then picked up my baby
and left the garage.
Inside the house, this same female friend was getting rid of things
she didn't need anymore. She handed me a shoebox full of little things
and a lovely piece of white fabric that turned out to be the strapless
over-gown for a wedding dress made of lacy ____ that was see-thru with
little white dots all over it.
In order to wear it, one had to buy the satin underskirts and top
and underwear. I knew I would never wear anything strapless anyway, so I
tried to think what I could use the fabric for - maybe like for curtains
for a baby girl's bedroom.
I then looked in the shoebox, which had no top on it and it was all
items women would use in the bathroom. When I looked into the box all I
could see was a pile of garden soil in the bottom and everything but a
line of white tampons was contaminated by the soil.
So, I threw away everything but the clean box of tampons. At my
age, I don't need those either, but one never knows these days.
I looked out the window then, and saw the countryside and a mountain
in the distance. At the base of the mountain were many trees, cars,
houses, trucks, and people.
All of a sudden, a pure white arm came down from the sky - long and
stretchy it seemed and its hand picked up everything off the earth but the
mountain. There was nothing left.
I woke up and the voice of JEHOVAH boomed into my left ear loudly
- "PEACE!!!"
NOTE: Jehovah is believed to have a female consort. These are the
names she goes by:
For some time Ashtart under the name Ashtoreth seems to have been
worshipped side by side with the Hebrew God as His consort; He was early
on called Ba'al, a general title meaning "Lord", used in the area to refer
to each people's particular patron God, though their real (and sometimes
secret) names were different. This fell out of favor in time as the
Hebrews transitioned to monotheism. Apparently they had a hard time with
this, though, as Jehovah is forever chiding His people for "backsliding"
and returning to the worship of Ba'al and Ashtoreth. Ashtoreth in the
Bible is worshipped in groves called after Her asherah and may have
been honored as a pillar of wood, or as manifest in the grove itself. In
one tale from the Biblical book Judges, Jehovah has Gideon destroy his own
father's shrines to Ba'al and Ashtoreth, which he does in the middle of
the night under cover of darkness, as he was too scared of the
repercussions to do it in broad daylight.
Ba'al was actually the nephew of Johovah/Enlil.
Jehovah/Yahweh is a form
of YHWH which originally represented the Heavenly Family - Y/El,
father; H/Asherah, mother; W/He, son and H/Anath, daughter. Anath (Anahita
in Persia) was Queen of the Heavens and her brother He, was King of
the Heavens. He and his father El, merged to become Jehovah. Asherah/Ashtoreth
(double serpents - wisdom) and Anath were then joined to become
Jehovah's consort, the SHEKINAH/MATRONIT. Sarah (Princess),
wife/sister of Abraham, revered as a goddess of health and
fertility, is said to be embodied in Shekinah (Indwelling). Celts
worshipped Shekinah at dolmens/cromlechs.
|
The Holy of Holies in
Solomon's Temple represented the womb of ASHTORETH/ASHERAH, who
was also the Phoenician goddess of love and fruitfulness, Astarte
in Greece and Rome, Atar Gatis (a mermaid) in Syria. Ashtoreth was
identified with Greek goddesses Hecate (witchcraft) and Selene
(moon = Roman Luna) - often associated with each other; Artemis
(wild nature, harvest, hunting as Agrotora, wild animals
especially bears as Kalliste, fishermen as Britomartis (Sweet
Maiden, moon goddess, snake-mermaid)/Diktynna, (who may be one
person or lovers) childbirth, chastity, youth and young women =
Roman Diana, and Aphrodite (love/beauty = Roman Venus). Selene
(who loved Endymion) had a sister Eos (Roman Aurora) goddess of
dawn - both were daughters of Theia. The Phoenician goddess of the
moon was Tanit. Creator goddesses have always been associated with
the moon, for obvious reasons even to its control of tides and
water - and horses too especially to the Celts, because of their
moon shaped hoof prints.
Ashtoreth was counterpart to Ishtar, (Isis in Egypt, Ashtart
in Israel; Athtar in Arabia and Astar in Abyssinia - change to
male!) Great Mother, goddess of fertility and Queen of Heaven who
was chief goddess of the Akkadians, Assyrians and Babylonians
(Mesopotamia/Iraq). Mara was goddess of the sea. To the Assyrians
Ishtar represented the goddess of hunting and war. To the
Babylonians she was represented by the evening or morning star
Venus, Mother Goddess, naked with prominent breasts and often
suckling a child. Also known as Queen Semiramis, whose mother was
Derceto, a mermaid.

In the Bible, God is referred to in many different ways. Here
are some example: Using the "Jehovah" interpretation: Jehovah-ropheka,
"Jehovah that heals" (Exodus 15:26), Jehovah-meqaddeshkem, "Jehovah
Who sanctifies you" (Exodus 31:13), Jehovah-tsabaoth, "Jehovah of
hosts" (1 Samuel 1:3), "Jehovah-elyon, "Jehovah Most High (Psalm
7:17), Jehovah-roi, "Jehovah my shepherd (Psalm 23:1)
El is used over 200 times as a Name for God, often in combination as
El, Eloah and Elyon. Many of the faithful people of God had it in their
name e.g. Elijah ("The Lord is God"), Daniel ("The Lord is
my Judge"). Another name for
Jesus Christ was Immamuel (Matthew 1:23) which means "The Lord
is with us."
As with
El Bethel, El 'Olam,
El Shadday,
El Berith,
Elohim and numerous other formations in the Bible as
translated into English, El Roi is a descriptive epithet for
god
using the word "El" for "God" and another modifier indicating a
quality of God.In the
Hebrew bible book of
Genesis,
Hagar
called the divine protagonist, El Roi. Roi means “seeing". To
Hagar, God revealed Himself as “The God Who sees".
Hagar is a distraught, frightened, pregnant, non-Israelite
slave girl who encounters God in a desert, and feeling she has
been miracuously aided by Him, calls him this name. It is possible
that the construction using 'el' and the specific construction 'el
roi' is drawn from Hagar's cultural understanding of and name for
god rather than being an Israelite construction.
El Roi: The name
El means
“God, god, mighty one, strength". It is used to denote “either the
generic name ‘god’ or ‘the God’ of Israel". In some instances of a
significant encounter with Elohim, believers would form a compound
of El and a word which described God’s revelation of Himself in
that encounter.
Shaddai is found almost 50 times in the Old Testament, and is
usually translated as Almighty. It was first recorded when God
spoke to Abraham: "And when Abram was ninety years old and nine, The Lord
appeared to Abram, and said unto him, I Am the Almighty God; walk before
Me, and be thou perfect. And I will make My covenant between Me and thee,
and will multiply thee exceedingly." (Genesis 17:1-2 KJV)
Theos -In the New Testament "God" is used for the original Greek
word Theos

Isaac and the life
of prayer and meditation
+ “Now that Isaac had come from Beer-Lahai-roi, and was dwelling in
Negeb. And Isaac went out to meditate in the field in the evening;”
(Gen. 24:62,63).
+ “After the death of Abraham God blessed Isaac his son. And Isaac
dwelt at Beer-Lahai-roi (Gen. 25:11).
The Bible does not provide details that are meaningless or of no
value to our spiritual life. The name ‘Lahai-roi’ means ‘vision’.
Origen, the Christian theologian and scholar, said that all the blessing
God gave to Isaac was his dwelling at Beer-Lahai-roi, and that the
blessing of dwelling at Beer-roi is a great blessing for who may
understand it. Origen then, after citing a number of visions witnessed
by holy men in the OT, such as Jacob’s vision in Bethel which he
described saying,“This is none other than the house of God, and this is
the gate of heaven” (Gen. 28:17), as well as the visions of Isaiah (Is.
1:1), and Nahum (Na. 1:1), went on to say, “But as of Isaac, he was
considered worthy of the blessing of dwelling at the well of vision,
i.e. Beer-Lahai-roi.” Origen added that, “such a blessing can be
received by everyone whose delight is in the law of the Lord, and on His
Law he meditates day and night” (Ps. 1:2).
From the little we know about Isaac, we realize that prayer was a
main theme in his life and that he depended on prayer in solving his
problems, for example, when he prayed for Rebekah his wife who was
barren and she conceived Esau and Jacob (Gen. 25:21).
Isaac followed the example of his father Abraham. Wherever he went,
Isaac built an altar for the Lord and pitched his tent there (Gen.
26:25). He was always guided by the Lord who appeared to him several
times, comforting and blessing him. When there was a famine in Canaan
and Isaac had to depart, the angel of God appeared to him and prevented
him from going to Egypt, and advised him to go to Gerar (which lies just
few miles from the city of Gaza) (Gen. 26:1-6). When he left Gerar and
went to Beer-Sheba, the Lord appeared to him again (Gen. 26:23-25).

EL ROI - THE GOD WHO SEES
From the Sermon on the Mount - Gospel of Matthew, Chapter 6
The real key to success of this kind of giving is
found in the phrase: thy Father which seeth in secret. . . shall reward
you. Giving by faith, out of a cheerful heart, depends upon our total
confidence in that fact that God does indeed see us and knows our needs.
The God who is there, sees in secret that which no man may observe, and
that God rewards His own. The individual person is to give, not in order
to receive reward, but that his love might be expressed to God who shall
reward him. Our giving to the work of Christ spreads the message of the
gospel throughout the world. Notice again, that these verses certainly do
not condemn public giving, but rather they speak against giving out of the
wrong attitude and for the wrong motive.

THE RIGHTEOUS MAN OR
WOMAN RUNS INTO THE STRONG TOWER OF THE GOD WHO SEES
(Genesis 16:13)
APPEARANCES OF THE ANGEL OF THE LORD
A. TO HAGAR...
1. When she was in the wilderness - Gen
16:7-14
2. The Angel speaks as though he was the LORD -
Gen 16:10-12
3. Note carefully Gen 16:13
a. It was "...the LORD who
spoke to her"
b. She called His name
"You-Are-the-God-Who-Sees"
c. She said "Have I also here
seen Him who sees me?"
COMMENTARY ON THIS VERSE:
The custom referred to in verse 2 is well known in history and for
instance in Babylonian law a wife was entitled to get children from
her husband through her slave, without any idea that the slave would
receive the status of a legal wife. In the Bible the same custom is
employed again by Abraham's grandson Jacob with Lea and Rachel, his
wives, and their maidservants Bilhah and Zilpah (Gen.
29:31 - 30:23). |
7The angel of the LORD
found Hagar near a spring in the desert; it was the spring that is
beside the road to Shur. 8And he said, "Hagar, servant of
Sarai, where have you come from, and where are you going?" "I'm
running away from my mistress Sarai," she answered. 9Then
the angel of the LORD told her, "Go back to your mistress and submit
to her." 10The angel added, "I will so increase your
descendants that they will be too numerous to count." 11The
angel of the LORD also said to her: "You are now with child and you
will have a son. You shall name him Ishmael, for the LORD has heard of
your misery. 12He will be a wild donkey of a man; his hand
will be against everyone and everyone's hand against him, and he will
live in hostility toward all his brothers." 13She gave this
name to the LORD who spoke to her: "You are the God who sees me," for
she said, "I have now seen the One who sees me." 14That is
why the well was called Beer Lahai Roi; it is still there, between
Kadesh and Bered. 15So Hagar bore Abram a son, and Abram
gave the name Ishmael to the son she had borne. 16Abram was
eighty-six years old when Hagar bore him Ishmael. |
Hagar herself speaks to the angel
about "my mistress Sarai" She does not question her status as a
servant of Sarai. It is not the status but mistreatment by Sarai which
is the issue.
More importantly, when the angel of the LORD appears to her he
addresses her as "Hagar, servant of Sarai", not as "Hagar, wife of
Abram". The messenger from God surely knows her proper title and
position. And the angel gives her the command, "Go back to your
mistress and submit to her".
We should, however, not overlook the mercy and love God shows
for Hagar and her son as well as the prophetic promise that Lord gives
regarding Ishmael. The name of the boy is first given to Hagar and
Abraham follows this command to name him Ishmael.
Please also have a look at this detailed study of the
Family of Abraham including God's promises to Ishmael and his
descendants. |

1991 - A Palindromic number
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A palindromic number is a 'symmetrical' number like 16461,
that remains the same when its digits are reversed. The term
palindromic is derived from
palindrome, which refers to a word like rotor that
remains unchanged under reversal of its letters. The first
palindromic numbers are:
- 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 11, 22, 33, 44, 55, 66, 77,
88, 99, 101, 111, 121, 131, 141, 151, 161, 171, 181, 191, …
(sequence
A002113 in
OEIS).
Palindromic numbers receive most attention in the realm of
recreational mathematics. A typical problem asks for numbers
that possess a certain property and are palindromic. For
instance,
- the
palindromic primes are 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 101, 131, 151, … (A002385)
- the palindromic
square numbers are 0, 1, 4, 9, 121, 484, 676, 10201, 12321,
… (A002779)
Buckminster Fuller referred to palindromic numbers as
Scheherazade numbers in his book
Synergetics, because
Scheherazade was the name of the story-telling wife in the
1001 Nights.
It is fairly straightforward to appreciate that in any
base there are
infinitely many palindromic numbers, since in any base the
infinite
sequence of numbers written (in that base) as 101, 1001,
10001, etc. (in which the nth number is a 1, followed by
n zeros, followed by a 1) consists of palindromic numbers
only.
Formal definition
Although palindromic numbers are most often considered in
the
decimal system, the concept of palindromicity can be applied
to the
natural numbers in any
numeral system. Consider a number n > 0 in
base
b ≥ 2, where it is written in standard notation with k+1
digits ai as:
-
with, as usual, 0 ≤ ai < b
for all i and ak ≠ 0. Then n
is palindromic if and only if ai = ak−i
for all i.
Zero is written 0 in any base and is also palindromic by
definition.
An alternative but equivalent definition is as follows. In
an arbitrary but fixed base b, a number n is
palindromic if and only if:
- n consists of a single digit, or
- n consists of two equal digits, or
- n consists of three or more digits, the first and
last digits are equal, and the number obtained by stripping the
first and last digits off n is itself palindromic.
