Parenthetical clauses are used throughout scripture to explain how, why, when and where in close proximity to the main subject and verb.
Parentheses in the book of The Revelation explain cause and effect. They tie together the events that happen previously, to the events that transpire subsequently on the prophetic timeline. Unfortunately, parentheses, as a literary devise, come centuries after the actual parenthetical clauses so prevalent in both Hebrew and Greek linguistic constructions. Because of their late arrival into the English language, the parentheticals in the book of The Revelation have never been either deservedly researched or accurately articulated. Now, after more than 40 years in the making, The Chronological Gospels is complete with all of the extensive parenthetical clauses accurately assigned throughout the book of The Revelation.
Now, with its impending fulfillment looming large on the horizon, The Revelation can finally be understood with clarity and lived with integrity. This one feature (the parenthetical clauses in The Revelation) in The Chronological Gospels is worth one thousand times the price of the book itself.
Join Michael Rood for the first of the last four teachings on the very last book of the Bible, “Parenthetically Speaking (Before We Are Saved From the Wrath To Come)”.
From Michael Rood’s book “The Pagan Christian Connection Exposed”>
"I invite you to leave your modern, western Gentile mentality behind as we explore the Scriptures from a Hebrew perspective. This is the paradigm shift for which you have been waiting an entire lifetime. As the prophets said, the Gentiles will come to the believers among the Jews in the last days, take hold of the blue fringe on the corners of their garments and say, “teach us the ways of the LORD, we now understand that the living oracles of GOD were committed to the Jews, and we have inherited nothing but lies and pagan gods from our forefathers—teach us about the Messiah (Zechariah 8:23, Jeremiah 16:19)" (page xvi introduction)
So that’s from Zechariah and Jeremiah ey? Let’s look at what they really say.
Zechariah 8:23 Thus saith the LORD of hosts; In those days it shall come to pass, that ten men shall take hold out of all languages of the nations, even shall take hold of the skirt of him that is a Jew, saying, We will go with you: for we have heard that God is with you.
Jeremiah 16:19 O LORD, my strength, and my fortress, and my refuge in the day of affliction, the Gentiles shall come unto thee from the ends of the earth, and shall say, Surely our fathers have inherited lies, vanity, and things wherein there is no profit.
It is Jesus they go to NOT the Jews who Rood would have us believe. Then Rood pretends to be a Jew to get people to think they need to come to him.
Michael Rood is an emissary of Satan.
In the beginning of his DVD called “From the Oracles of God & The Road to Emmanus”.
"Yochanan, a first century Jewish author wrote " I have not written everything that could, or should be written about Yahshua of Nazareth, but these things I have written, so that you might know and believe that Yahshua is the messiah." Yochanan (John) 20:30-31
Here’s how the passage really reads in scripture.
John 20:30 And many other signs truly did Jesus in the presence of his disciples, which are not written in this book: 31 But these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through his name.
Notice how Rood conveniently leaves out that “Jesus us the Christ, the Son of God”.
....”Notice how Rood conveniently leaves out that “Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God”.....
It’s like that throughout his teachings because obvious to Christians Rood and his followers ares promoting another gospel than the Biblical Gospel of Jesus Christ.
If his followers did at the very least a comparative study to “prove” what this guys dishing out they’d see the error quickly...it’s not difficult to see.
Instead they listen to his gobbly goop explanations for why everyone else except him are reading it wrong ...while he takes them down the rabbit hole he’s dug for himself. The more complicated he can make it, the better, and he does so on purpose.
>> Notice how Rood conveniently leaves out that “Jesus us the Christ, the Son of God”. <<
.
Notice how Yeshua HaMassiach is correct, while Jesus Christ is using a false name in place of his birth name, and giving him the pagan title of Zeus: Cristos.
I prefer truth over whatever makes your unbelieving itching ears feel good. Those like you, that don’t even believe in him, have no dog in this fight.
.
>> “It is Jesus they go to NOT the Jews who Rood would have us believe” <<
.
What an embarrassment you are!
His name is Yeshua, and he is a Jew, but this scripture does not speak of him, but of all of the learned Jews.
Rood’s lines are a truly excellent summation of the scriptures, capturing the exact meaning.
Your hatred of Yeshua, and your limited cognition are showing.
>> “It’s important because, without being circumcised, one cannot celebrate any of the feasts” <<
.
That is a lie from your Father, the inventor of them.
The feasts are commanded for all the nations. You need to read Paul’s epistles WRT the circumcision.
(if your Father will allow it)
The AntiMessiah Deception of the Sacred Name Cult
Sacred Namers are a group largely professing to be Torah Observant Gentiles, who believe that the only source of power and righteousness in creation is the use (and frequent use at that) of the Holy Name which the Creator gave to Moses on Mount Sinai. This group routinely pronounces anyone who does not use their terminology and their "correct" pronunciation of the name of G-d as Pagan. There is a deeply troubling quasi-psychotic hatred which can be easily found in these groups. Any word of term which is English or Greek is considered to be Pagan in origin. Even common words such as "Sacred", "Holy", or "G-d" will instantly brand you as a pagan idolater who has no hope of redemption.
The history of the Sacred Name Cults shows them to be derived of the Millerite sects, the Adventists and the Church of God, and thus from the false prophet William Miller who prophesied the return of Jesus in 1843 and made a subsequent false prophecy concerning 1845. Though his group self destructed by the mid 19th century the followers became the Adventists and later Church of God sects, preserving the strict legalism and false prophetic bents of the original group.
More can be read for those interested in seeing more about those cultic groups.
I hear you hissing!
Nobody can dialogue with the stream of vile hate you spew.
The ignorance and hate that exudes from your vile posts clearly identifies who your Father is, and of course the sulfurous stench helps too.

Oh, what nonsense!!! First of all, 'The Way International' is not 'Hebrew Roots'. In fact, a short perusal of their Doctrins show nothing Messianic at all. Hebrew Roots has many sects, and is an umbrella term for 'Messianic' Christians, in much the same way as Messianic Jews are distinct from Jews. Those you are dealing with here are all of the Two-House Messianic sect. But there are many others.
Secondly, Our Messianic Jewish brethren are certainly and necessarily a touch stand-offish to 'Hebrew Roots' Christians, because Messianic Jews retain their Jewish Tradition of the Elders, which Hebrew Roots folks will *not* follow, in the same sense as the Protestants abhor Catlick tradition.
But without a doubt, Messianic Jews are closer to my kind than to yours - Torah is a very big deal to them, as to us, and that necessarily provides for more kinship than with those who believe the Torah is to be ignored.
Rood’s beliefs are mostly derived from the Shem Tov
No, they are not. He uses Shem Tov as reference, primarily when trying to suss out things in KJV that are tough sledding. He also uses the Aramaic and the Septuagint in the very same way. The primary thing he draws from in the Shem Tov is Mat 23, to derive a meaning from Mat 23:2 that I already derived outright from KJV - He uses it as a proof for something that is already evident... And btw, what that says in very plain terms, takes UTTERLY AWAY 'the authority of the Jewish sages' which you claim it is designed to uphold. It is the KJV that, if taken with no knowledge of Judaism, 'upholds the sages', and Rood uses the Shem Tov to knock it down in the KJV. And he is right to do so. To say he MOSTLY comes from the Shem Tov is an egregious inflation of monumental proportions. The statement is false on it's face.
The problem is that the Shem Tov is a completely corrupted translation and denies the deity of Christ. Which by the way Rood’s friend and Karaite (a whole nother apostasy in itself which Rood and his new wife took vows to) also does.
Here is another whole pile of nonsense.
Whether or not the Shem Tov 'denies the deity of Christ' is immaterial (and I really don't remember it that way). Rood certainly does not. Rood certainly CANNOT, as the principle proof that two-house (and most) Messianics go by is that Yeshua IS YHWH.
As to 'Karaite (a whole nother apostasy in itself', your ignorance is showing. Messianic Christians have a closer affiliation to Jewish Karaites because they do not retain (reject) the Jewish Tradition of the Elders. They are to Judaism as Protestants are to Catlicks. Messianic Karaites are Karaites who believe in Yeshua as Messiah and embrace the Brit Hadasha - Is it any wonder that Messianic Christians would embrace them?
But even standard Karaites (like Nehemiah Gordon, who you defame) wind up having a lot more in common with Messianics than other Jewish sects. And because they are not tainted by the Jewish Tradition, Messianics tend to go to them to inquire about Hebrew perspectives.
And OH NOES! Rood got married in a Karaite marriage ceremony!!! THAT is somehow an heresy? Was it Messianic Karaite, or strictly Karaite? Does that make a difference?
Are you now promoting paganism?
One of the many issues concerning Roods teachings is he references many pagan Gods and Goddesses by attaching them to anything Christian or Christ like in “selling his agenda and belief system” to the uninformed.
Most Christians are not aware of pagan gods and godesss, nor do they need to be as they're focus is rightfully on Jesus Christ...so the idea with Roods teachings, and his followers is to break down individuals belief in Christ by tearing down those things which are related to the Christian Faith first.
This is ‘a breaking down’ of whatever Christian beliefs an individual may have, create doubt and confusion, in order to re-program their thinking to fall in lockstep to, in this case, Roods teachings. Standard practice for cults and cult leaders.....Much like Jehovah Witnesses do and Ultimately most cults.
......Though it generally takes awhile before they expose themselves in that respect, but by then most followers are already in so deep they believe anything they're told.
That is a direct tactic of the enemy of men's souls....creating doubt, creating confusion, and outright lying ...while telling the hearer to make his own decisions. It's deception at it's worst.
What part of this “trinity” can you show us in the Word, I can’t seem to find it.
.
>> “Are you now promoting paganism?” <<
No, I am calling your paganism into view.
Cristos is the ancient title of Zeus (Mythra, Tammuz, etc).
Massiach is Yeshua’s title. It is Biblical, unlike cristos.
Mixing paganism with a twisted corpse of Yeshua’s Way was Constantine’s shtick.
.....<<<<<<”I hear you hissing!....Nobody can dialogue with the stream of vile hate you spew”>>>>>>>>......
I asked if YOU could dialogue without using cutting remarks etc.... Apparently not...as you again attest this time as well.
As for Rood, of course I’ll defend Christianity against his false teachings....Christians are called to do so regardless if you like it or not. You can call us any names you want but it will not affect our cause for Christ against the shyster, fraud Rood.
No it doesn’t.
Jeremiah 16:19 O LORD, my strength, and my fortress, and my refuge in the day of affliction, the Gentiles shall come unto thee from the ends of the earth, and shall say, Surely our fathers have inherited lies, vanity, and things wherein there is no profit.
It’s Jesus they go to. NOT “all of the learned Jews”. If you keep listening to that corrupted scripture that Rood calls his “MIV” (Marine Infantry Version) you will always be in error.
Rood’s teachings are totally from the scriptures.
The twisted mess that you practice under the guise of “Christianity” is nowhere to be found in the scriptures.
You deny Yeshua’s words, and his apostles’ words. Obviously you want nothing to do with him or his Way.
.
Did or did not Rood spend many years as a leader in “The Way International” and was he or was he not ordained by that cult?
>>As to 'Karaite (a whole nother apostasy in itself', your ignorance is showing.<<
The Karaites and a leader of the who is also a close friend of Rood deny the deity of Jesus as anyone can find out by doing just a little research on them. Rood and his current wife Judith also were married in a Karaite ceremony where they pledged their beliefs.
Truth seems to make you spew hatred.
You are way too limited cognitively to have any meaningful discussion.
The Jew’s Taliq is a rectangular garment with a fringe cord woven into the four corners. The prophecy is for our time and calls for the misled Christians to break free from the error of the man made churches, and seek the knowledge of Torah from Jews.
This is happening in a big way right now, as they go to synagogues to enroll in the schooling available there.
I know you don’t like it, but you, being an unbeliever, are of no consequence to anyone seeking knowledge, “running to and fro” on the internet.
>> “The Karaites and a leader of the who is also a close friend of Rood deny the deity of Jesus as anyone can find out by doing just a little research on them” <<
.
Gosh but you’re a moron!
Yes, Karaites are traditional Jews that reject the corruptions of the false “oral law.”
But there are messianics that also use the name Karaite, that are very devout believers in Yeshua, and ascribe to him the deity of YHVH.
Why don’t you quit while you’re only 20 miles in the hole!
