A big surprise, it looks like.
Exciting stuff.
There's a lot of key information here, at the gates of Rome, and also that David *was* the Law, as “the final verdict.”
In ancient Roman religion and myth, Janus (/ˈdʒeɪnəs/ JAY-nəs; Latin: Ianvs [ˈi̯aːnʊs]) is the god of beginnings, gates, transitions, time, duality, doorways,[2] passages, frames, and endings. He is usually depicted as having two faces. The month of January is named for Janus (Ianuarius).[3] According to ancient Roman farmers' almanacs, Juno was mistaken as the tutelary deity of the month of January,[4] but Juno is the tutelary deity of the month of June.>>>>>>
Etymology
The name of the god Iānus, meaning in Latin 'arched passage, doorway', stems from Proto-Italic *iānu ('door'), ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *ieh₂nu ('passage'). It is cognate with Sanskrit yāti ('to go, travel'), Lithuanian jóti ('to go, ride'), Irish áth ('ford') or Serbo-Croatian jàhati ('to ride').[5][6]
Iānus would then be an action name expressing the idea of going, passing, formed on the root *yā- < *y-eð2- theme II of the root *ey- go from which eō, ειμι.[7] Other modern scholars object to an Indo-European etymology either from Dianus or from root *yā-.[8]
From Ianus derived ianua ("door"),[9] and hence the English word "janitor" (Latin, ianitor).
A contronym, also known as a 'Janus word,' is a word that is its own opposite—like 'fast', which can describe both quick movement, and lack of movement.
Frequently described as "words that are their own opposites," contronyms (contranym is a variant spelling) are also known as Janus words, antagonyms, and autoantonyms.
These are words that have developed contradictory meanings. Cleave is often cited as the go-to contronym: it can refer to splitting something apart and to uniting two things. Those disgruntled at the phenomenon may be glad to know that the class of words is rather small, and also that there is usually some sort of logic at work.

670. A NEW TORAH***God is destined to give a new Torah to Israel at the hands of the Messiah, as it is said, "A new Torah shall come forth from Me" (Isa. 51:4). That new Torah will be written with 23 letters in the alphabet. That extra letter had accompanied the other 22 from the first, but it had been invisible. With the addition of that letter, the letters of the Torah will combine in a different way, and new meanings will emerge...
This links in to the Jewish concept of דבר והיפוכו -- a thing and its opposite. The phrase also translates as "oxymoron".
Keep on the Sunnyside ~
I've often linked Johnny Cash's classic, but I just found this from Dwight. Johnny is a zombie by comparison:
Dwight Yoakam (LIVE HD) : Keep on the sunny side / Pacific Amp. : Costa Mesa, CA / 7/20/23
Outstanding and really fun, even though the lyrics are muddled in the live event.
Just where is the ‘Throne of David’ right now, and who is on it?....................
