YAHWEH Set Death And Life Before Yisrael

DEBARIM 30:15 See, I have set before you this day life {khah'-ee}and tov,
and death {maw'-veth} and evil;
DEBARIM 30:16 In that I command you this day to love YAHWEH your ABBA, to walk in HIS ways, and to keep HIS mitzvoth and HIS statutes and HIS mishpatim, that you may live {khaw-yaw'} and multiply: and YAHWEH your ABBA shall bless {baw-rak'} you in the land which you are going to possess
DEBARIM 30:17 But if your lev turn away, so that you will not {shaw-mah'}, but shall be drawn away, and worship gods, and serve them;
DEBARIM 30:18 I declare to you this day, that you shall surely perish, and that you shall not prolong your days upon the land, whither you pass over Yardan to go to possess it.
DEBARIM 30:19 I call the shamayim and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both you and your seed may live:
DEBARIM 30:20 That you may love YAHWEH your ABBA, and that you may obey HIS Voice, and that you may cleave to HIM: for HE is your life, and the length of your days: that you may dwell in the land which YAHWEH swore to your ahvot, to Avraham, to Yitzchak, and to Yaakov, to give them.

MISHLE 19:23 The fear {yir-aw' } of YAHWEH tends to life: and he that has it shall abide satisfied; he shall not be visited with evil
fear: {yir-aw'} terror, respect, reverence, awesome/terrifying thing

MISHLE 22:4 By humility {an-aw-vaw'} and the fear of YAHWEH are riches, and honor, and life {khah'-ee}

SIRACH 1:10 The fear of YAHWEH delights the lev, and gives gladness and joy and long life

Exhortations To Obedience And Emunah Faith

MISHLE 3:1 My son, forget not my Torah; but let your lev guard my mitzvoth.
MISHLE 3:2 For length of days, and long life, and shalom, shall they add to you.

LUKAS 12:15 And he said to them, Take heed, and beware of covetousness: for a man's life consists not in the abundance of the things which he possesses.

Interpretation of the Apocalypse by the Wisdom of YAHWEH

2 BARUCH 38:1And I prayed and said: O YAHWEH, the Sovereign Ruler, YOU are the ONE who has always enlightened those who conduct themselves with understanding.
2 BARUCH 38:2 YOUR Torah is Life, and YOUR wisdom is the right way.
2 BARUCH 38:3 Now, show me the explanation of this vision.
2 BARUCH 38:4 For YOU know that my soul has always been associated with YOUR Torah, and that I did not depart from YOUR wisdom from my earliest days.

The Tree of Life

BERESHITH 2:9 And out of the ground {ad-aw-maw'} made YAHWEH to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food; including the "tree of life" also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of knowledge of tov and evil

How Can Eat From The Tree Of Life

GILYAHNA 2:7 He that has an ear, let him hear what the Ruach says to the congregations; To him that overcomes will I give to eat of The Tree of Life, which is in the midst of the paradise of YAHWEH.

YOCHANAN 1:4 In Him was life; and the life was the light of men
*The Ruach of YAHWEH, HIS Word as we will see in the Ruachim of YAHWEH

YOCHANAN 6:63 It is the Ruach that quickens; the flesh profits nothing: the words that I speak to you, they are Ruach, and they are life

To Gain Wisdom - She is The Tree of Life

MISHLE 3:13 Happy is the man that finds wisdom, and the man that gets understanding.
MISHLE 3:14 For the merchandise of it is better than the merchandise of silver, and the gain thereof than fine gold.
MISHLE 3:15 She is more precious than rubies: and all the things you can desire are not to be compared to her.

Why?

MISHLE 3:16 Length of days is in her right hand; and in her left hand riches and honor.
MISHLE 3:17 Her ways are ways of pleasantness, and all her paths are shalom.
MISHLE 3:18 She is the tree of life to them that lay hold upon her: and happy is every one that retains her.

A Description Of The Heavenly State, Under The Figures Of The Water And The Tree Of Life, And Of The Throne Of YAHWEH And The Lamb
GILYAHNA 22:1 And he shown me a pure river of water of life, bright as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of YAHWEH and of the Lamb.
GILYAHNA 22:2 In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, [was there] the tree of life, which bare twelve [manner of] fruits, and yielded her fruit every month: and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.

The Health of YAHWEH in this Life
MISHLE 14:30 A sound {mar-pay' healthy} lev is the life {khah'-ee} of the flesh: but envy the rottenness of the bones

MISHLE 4:13 Take fast hold of instruction {moo-sawr'}; let her not go: keep her; for she is your life
MISHLE 6:23 For the mitzvah is a lamp; and the Torah is light; and reproofs of instruction are the way of life:

MISHLE 4:13 Take fast hold of instruction {moo-sawr'}; let her not go: keep her; for she is your life

1 BARUCH 4:1 This is the book of The Mitzvoth of YAHWEH, and the Torah that endures forever: all they that keep it shall come to life; but such as leave it shall die
1 BARUCH 4:2 Turn you, O Yacob, and take hold of it: walk in the presence of The Light thereof, that you may be illuminated

The Health of Life
SIRACH 37:31 Many have died of gluttony, but he who is careful to avoid it prolongs his life

Exhortations To Hear MessiYah's Word

32 Now therefore listen to Me, O you children of Yisrael: for blessed are they that shomer My halachot.2
MISHLE 8:33 Hear instruction {moo-sawr' discipline, chastening, correction}, and be wise, and refuse it not.

MISHLE 10:17 He is in the way of life that keeps instruction {moo-sawr'}: but he that refuses reproof errs

MISHLE 11:19 As tzedakah (righteousness) tends to life {khah'-ee}: so he that pursues evil pursues it to his own death

MISHLE 12:28 In the way of tzedakah is life; and in the pathway thereof there is no death

The Fountain of Life
MISHLE 14:27 The fear of YAHWEH is a fountain {maw-kore'} of life, to depart from the snares of death
* of source of life, joy, purification, of happiness, wisdom
TEHILLIM 36:9 For with YAHWEH is the fountain of life: in YOUR light shall we see light

MISHLE 16:22 Understanding is a wellspring {maw-kore'}of life to him that has it: but the instruction of fools is folly

SIRACH 30:21 Do not give yourself over to sorrow, and do not afflict yourself deliberately.
SIRACH 30:22 Gladness of heart is the life of man, and the rejoicing of a man is length of days

GILYAHNA 21:6 And HE said to me, Kala-It is done. I am Aleph and Taf, the beginning and the end. I will give to him that is thirsty of the fountain of the water of life freely.

Who is The Wise
MISHLE 15:31 The ear that hears the reproof of life abides among the wise
MISHLE 15:32 He that refuses instruction despises his own soul: but he that hears reproof gets a understanding lev

Follow After to find Life

The Reason We Hate Life
KOHETET - ECCLESIASTES 2:17 Therefore I hated {saw-nay'} life; because the work that is done under the sun is grievous {rah} to me: for all is vanity {heh'bel} and vexation of ruach

Death come because of
WISDOM 1:12 Do not invite death by the error of your life, nor bring on destruction by the works of your hands;
WISDOM 1:13 because YAHWEH did not make death, and HE does not delight in the death of the living.

SIRACH 30:24 Jealousy and anger shorten life, and anxiety brings on old age too soon

SIRACH 6:16 A faithful friend is an elixir of life; and those who fear YAHWEH will find him

Foolishness
SIRACH 20:22 A man may lose his life through shame, or lose it because of his foolish look

SIRACH 22:11 Weep for the dead, for he lacks the light; and weep for the fool, for he lacks intelligence; weep less bitterly for the dead, for he has attained rest; but the life of the fool is worse than death.
SIRACH 22:12 Mourning for the dead lasts seven days, but for a fool or an wicked man it lasts all his life

WISDOM 8:5 If riches are a desirable possession in life, what is richer than wisdom who effects all things?
WISDOM 8:6 And if understanding is effective, who more than she is fashioner of what exists?
WISDOM 8:7 And if any one loves righteousness, her labors are virtues; for she teaches self-control and prudence, justice and courage; nothing in life is more profitable for men than these.

SIRACH 37:25 The life of a man is numbered by days, but the days of Yisrael are without number

SIRACH 45:2 He made him equal in glory to the holy ones, and made him great in the fears of his enemies.
SIRACH 45:3 By his words he caused signs to cease; YAHWEH honored him in the presence of kings. He gave him mitzvoth for HIS people, and showed him part of HIS honor
SIRACH 45:4 HE sanctified him through faithfulness and meekness; HE chose him out of all mankind.
SIRACH 45:5 He made him hear HIS voice, and led him into the thick darkness, and gave him the mitzvoth face to face, the Torah of life and knowledge, to teach Yacob the covenant, and Yisrael his mishpatim

SIRACH 41:3 Do not fear the sentence of death; remember your former days and the end of life; this is the decree from YAHWEH for all flesh,
SIRACH 41:4 and how can you reject the good pleasure of The Most High? Whether life is for ten or a hundred or a thousand years, there is no inquiry about it in Hell.

The Kohen Reproved For Neglecting Their Covenant
MALACHYAH 2:1 And now, O you kohenim, this commandment is for you.
MALACHYAH 2:2 If you will not hear, and if you will not lay it to lev, to give honor to MY Name, says YAHWEH of hosts, I will even send a curse upon you, and I will curse your blessings: yes, I have cursed them already, because you do not lay it to lev
* Yisrael and her leaders have no choice. Withholding the true Name (regardless of the excuse) will result in a curse from YAHWEH. This is plain and simple for all to understand
MALACHYAH 2:3 Behold, I will corrupt your seed, and spread dung upon your faces, even the dung of your solemn feasts; and one shall take you away with it.
* Keeping the feasts without giving honor to YAHWEH�s Name and obeying His Torah results in corruption
MALACHYAH 2:4 And you shall know that I have sent this commandment to you, that MY covenant might be with Levi, says YAHWEH of hosts.
MALACHYAH 2:5 MY covenant was with him of life and shalom; and I gave them to him for the fear wherewith he feared ME, and was afraid before MY Name
* Lewi and the priests used to be in love with His Name, to proclaim and seek shelter in it, until the rabbinical ban pronounced around 350 BCE changed that

1 QORINTYAH 15:19 If in this life only we have hope in MessiYah, we are of all men most miserable

1 KEPHA 3:10 For he that will love life, and see tov days, let him refrain his tongue from evil, and his lips that they speak no guile:
1 KEPHA 3:11 Let him eschew evil, and do good; let him seek shalom, and pursue it.

1 YOCHANAN 3:14 We know that we have passed from death to life, because we love the brethren. He that loves not his brother abides in death
