WHO WAS

WHO WAS, AND WHO IS, “ JUDAH ” TODAY?

(By D. L. García)

Who was, and who is, Judah today? The question could appear odd, since most Bible readers would answer that he was one of Yaakob’s (Jacob) sons, his tribe, his land or his kingdom (the house of Judah). But they may be surprised that they are wrong, because this “name” never existed in the Hebrew language. Actually “Judah,” as well as all the other “names” that we find in the Bible, are only substitutions made by the early translators of the Sacred Scripture. By accepting these substitutions, the Scripture teachers, instead of teaching the truth, create confusion about the true Word of our Creator. Names are very important in the sight of our Heavenly Creator. To prove this assertion, let us read some examples from the Sacred Book, where Yahweh Himself gave names to His chosen ones. And remember, prior to the 14^th century the letter “J” did not exist in any language; it is only a variation of the letter “I” adapted in the 1600s of the Common Era.

Starting in Genesis chapter 17: verse 5, Abram was told: “Neither shall your name any more be called Abram, but your name shall be Abraham; for a father of many nations have I made you.”

The reason for changing Abram’s first name was to give him a higher position: the first name “Abram” means only “high father,” but “Abraham” means “father of many nations”! So just adding or deleting one letter from a name can change the meaning of it, and cause the person to lose his or her true identity.

Again, in verse 15, we read: “…And Eylohim said unto Abraham, As for Sarai your wife, you shall not call her name Sarai, for her name is Sarah...” In this case, the name “Sarai” means, “Dominant or domineering”; but “Sarah” means “noble lady, a princess or a queen.” Then, in verse 19: we read: “…And Eylohim said, “Sarah your wife truly shall bear a son to you; and you shall call his name Yitzhak…” As we read here, Yahweh Himself gave the name, even before “Yitzhak” was conceived. But instead, readers of the Bible call him “Isaac.” But by using this substitute name, we invalidate the intentions of our Heavenly Father, who gave the name. Also, many people have a misconception of meaning of his name, assuming that it means “laugh,” but actually, the true name (Yitzhak) means “to be happy, joyful or blissful.”

Also, in the New Testament we find recorded in the book of Mattithyah (Matthew), chapter 1: verses 20-21, how the angel told Yowseph (Joseph) about the future birth of the Savior, saying, “…You son of Daviyd, fear not to take Miryam as your wife: For that which is begotten in her is of the Holy Spirit. And she shall bring forth a son, and you shall call His Name Yahshua. For He shall save His people...” (Yahshua erroneously referred to as “Jesus.”) Also, from the book of Loukas (Luke) chapter 1: verse 13, we read, “…But the angel (messenger) said to him, fear not Zekaryah (Zechariah): For your prayer is heard; and your wife Eylishebah (Elisabeth) shall bear you a son, and you shall call his name Yahkhanan (John)...”

So here also, in the New Testament, we have these two names appointed by Yahweh the Creator. The first (Jesus) was restored 60 years ago in some versions as Yahshua; a Name which means Yahweh is salvation. But the second remains as “John,” a substitute name that should not be accepted as a proper name by the faithful believers, because this was not the name that the angel gave to Zekaryah (Zechariah) for his son. Also it is not a Hebrew name, and did not exist two thousand years ago in any language.

So if we passively accept all these changed names, then it will be very hard for us to explain to our Creator, why we chose to obey men, rather than Yahweh’s will.

Back to the book of Genesis, in chapter 29 we find Yaakob (Jacob) married to four women. Yaakob loved Rachel more than the others, and Leah was grieving and sorrowful. Verse 31 says “And when Yahweh saw that Leah was hated, He opened her womb: But Rachel was barren.” In verse 32 we read, “And Leah conceived, and bore a son, and she called his name Reuwben (Reuben): for she said, Surely Yahweh had looked upon my affliction; now therefore my husband will love me.” Finally, Leah started to trust in Yahweh. The meaning of “Reuwben” was, “See the son.”

Continuing with chapter 29: verse 35, it reads that an astonishing promise was made by Leah to the Almighty Yahweh, as we read: “…And she conceived again, and bare a son; and she said: Now I will praise Yahweh: Therefore she called his name Yahuwdah…,” (erroneously translated as “ Judah ”, without meaning).

As we proved before, most of the Hebrew names contain a meaning, as a reminder or as a memorial, concerning Yahweh’s plans. So replacing those names is an open rebellion against Yahweh the Father.

So let us concentrate in this study on the special name “Yahuwdah,” which was substituted with the erroneous name “ Judah .” This substitution alters Yahweh’s purposes because He inspired Leah to call her son with that Great Name, “Yahuwdah:” a name which is the only Name comparable in Greatness, Honor and Dignity to the Name of Yahshua.

THE NAME “YAHUWDAH” HAS AMAZING MEANINGS

In fact, the purpose of this message is to illustrate the astonishing and amazing meanings of the name “Yahuwdah,” and the unavoidable necessity of restoring it in the modern versions of the Sacred Scriptures. Only by knowing its real meanings can we show the readers of the Sacred Scripture why it is so important to know and use all the names recorded in the Sacred Scripture, in their original Hebrew forms (sound).

Let us read again this amazing statement made by a suffering and devoted woman (Leah) to Almighty Yahweh: Genesis chapter 29: verse 35, reads, “And she conceived again, and bore a son: and she said, Now will I praise Yahweh: Therefore she called his name Yahuwdah.”

By considering this brief statement, we can best understand the real importance of each Hebrew name. Basically, the names allow us to identify the mark, the position, the purpose and the memorial of the person.

The name “Yahuwdah” really has an amazing meaning; in Strong’s Concordance number 3063, we find that it is composed of two Hebrew words: 1) “Yah,” which is the poetic Name of the Heavenly Father; and “yadah,” which means to confess, celebrate, give thanks, revere, worship and praise. Now, if we ignore all these meanings and instead we use the erroneous name “ Judah ,” instead of “Yahuwdah,” we truly miss the real purpose of the Name given by the Heavenly Father.

When Leah said: “Now I will praise Yahweh,” she made a promise to Yahweh: that from then on, she and her descendents will confess, celebrate, revere, worship, give thanks and praise Yahweh. So she kept that promise by using that name, as we read in verse 35: “…Therefore she called his name Yahuwdah…,” a name that should remind us forever of the great meaning, inspired from heaven to that faithful woman, who in some way, perceived that through that name would come her salvation.

But by accepting the foreign translators’ substitution, how can we understand Yahweh’s plan of salvation? The substitution of the Name Yahuwdah with the poor and meaningless name “ Judah ” causes us to deceive ourselves; this so-called name does not exist in the Hebrew language. It is a name invented by the translators. So, if we ignore the meanings of the true name, we ignore a big part of the Scripture, because there is a big difference between the carnal name “Yahuwdah,” and the Spiritual Name Yahuwdah, not to mention the false “ Judah .”

In fact, the great name, “Yahuwdah,” has a revelation comparable only with the Great Name of “Yahshua,” i.e. in Wisdom and Spiritual knowledge. This is reason enough to restore it in the Sacred Scriptures, in its original form.

In our present system, if we fail to provide our correct I.D., we cannot obtain a driver’s license or a credit card; nor can we purchase a house or a car; or even be allowed to fly on commercial airplanes. Now, if this is so in our human system, how do we perceive the Celestial system? Obviously, it cannot be less important, but instead must be more important!

Forgive me dear brothers, but we cannot be so careless with the true names given to us from Heaven. The names “ Judah ” with “h,” Juda without “h,” “Judas” with “s,” and “Jude,” etc., in the Hebrew language are not the same name as Yahuwdah, which means, “One who praises Yahweh.” The substitutions do not mean anything and serve only to confuse and divert us from our purpose which is to obey Yahweh’s commands.

So from here on, let us discover who was the true Spiritual “Yahuwdah” of the past, and who the real Yahuwdah is in this present time. Also, let’s prove who were the true spiritual “Yahuwdiym” (Yahuwdah’s plural) of the past, and who are the true “Yahuwdiym” in the present time. But in order to understand how important this subject is, let us keep in mind the meaning of the name Yahuwdah, which is: One who confesses, celebrates, gives thanks, reveres, worships and praises Yahweh’s Name.

The true name was lost because of human ignorance in the past, and is still missing and ignored today due to our carelessness and negligence in this present time. So the question today is: Who really was, or to whom was ancient Yisraeyl ( Israel ) referring with this singular name Yahuwdah in the past? And who is He, in this present time? Because Yahuwdah is still living today and He will live forever.

If we didn’t ask these questions before, it was because we never gave any real importance to the “names,” assuming (erroneously) that the names we read in “the Bible” were correct. So we put our trust completely in the substitutions made by the first foreign translators who did not understand the Hebrew language well, nor the names, the titles, the Shabbaths, the sacred calendar, the feasts, and many other things related to Yahweh’s plan of Salvation.

So in order to continue with the task of restitutions mentioned in the book of Acts 3:20-21, it is very important to find the right answers to these questions. In doing so, we will take another big step forward in understanding Yahweh’s instructions, because restoring the correct name “Yahuwdah” is so important, comparable only with the restitution of the two Sacred Names, Yahweh and Yahshua.

THE AMAZING AND INCREDIBLE BLESSINGS GIVEN

BY YISRAEYL TO YAHUWDAH

Now, let us read one of the most intricate passages recorded in the Sacred Book regarding the blessings to the 12 sons of Yisraeyl (Jacob-Israel), and find out to which he was referring when he blessed Yahuwdah. Yisraeyl, on his deathbed, called all his sons to be blessed by him. After he blessed Reuwben (Reuben), Shimown (Simeon) and Leviy (Levy), it was Yahuwdah’s turn. In Genesis chapter 49: verse 8, we read the astonishing promise given to Yahuwdah when Yisraeyl said: “...Yahuwdah, you are He whom your brothers shall Praise: Your hand shall be in the neck of your enemies; Your Father’s children shall bow down before You…”

Amazing and marvelous promises, but how should we interpret these blessings, literally or symbolically? Or should we assume that the elder Yisraeyl was addressing somebody other than his own carnal (flesh) son? Let us read Gen. 49:8 again and break the verse down to two parts in order to make two questions from it. This small verse encompasses big questions for us today, which we need to solve and to understand. Otherwise, we will miss an important revelation which will keep us in doubt, and possibly lead to painful consequences before the throne of judgments.

So let us start with the first part: “Yahuwdah, You are He whom your brothers shall Praise.” From this small part alone arise another two questions. First, should we read this passage as “ Judah ” the substitute name, or as “Yahuwdah” the original name? And second, to whom does this blessing refer? The first question can obviously be discarded, because as we proved before, “ Judah ” cannot be the true name. But the second question requires a very careful answer: Which “brothers” were supposed to “Praise Yahuwdah”? Can we assume that would be his 11 carnal brothers? This cannot be because throughout the entire sacred Book we never find any mention of Yahuwdah’s brothers praising him. So then, should we believe that the dying Yisraeyl ( Israel ) did not know exactly what he was talking about? And if this was so, how can we trust his other statements?

In the same verse, Yisraeyl added another promise to Yahuwdah, saying: “Your father’s children shall bow down before You.” Incredible blessings were given to Yahuwdah.

But to which “father” was the elder Yisraeyl referring? Are we to believe that he was talking about himself and referring to his other sons, to bow down before Yahuwdah? If so, where in the entire book can we read anything to confirm this saying? In fact, 11 brothers “bow down” before Yowseph (Joseph), as we read in Genesis chapter 43: verse 26 which reads, “And when Yowseph came home, they brought him the present which was in their hand into the house, and bowed themselves to him to earth.” Also, in chapter 50: verse 18, we read, “And his brothers also went and fell down before his face; and they said, Behold, we be your servants.” But these accounts are referring to Yowseph. Did Yisraeyl make a mistake in Genesis chapter 49: verse 8? Or was he talking about another Yahuwdah rather than his carnal son? If it was so, we have to find out which “Yahuwdah” in order to know if we really understand what we read from the Sacred Scriptures.

Now we have to remember that whoever the personage to whom Yisraeyl was referring, the promise was: “Your father’s children shall bow down before You.”

But there are more blessings for the special personage called Yahuwdah. In Genesis 49:10, Yisraeyl added more privilege for Him, saying: “…The sceptre shall not depart from Yahuwdah or a lawgiver (Torah giver) from between his feet...”

Incredible promises that we need to unravel today to know for certain to whom Yisraeyl was referring in his blessings. So today, with more dedication, we must investigate and confirm to which Yahuwdah was given the following promises: First, His “brothers shall praise Him”; second, “His father’s children shall bow down before Him”; third, the sceptre never departs from Him; and fourth, He is to be in charge of the Torah!

Can we suppose that Yisraeyl ( Israel ) glimpsed that from his son’s lineage will come the future Savior? Before making any speculations, let us find more evidence to prove the falsehood of the name “ Judah ” versus the true name Yahuwdah.

THE NAME YAHUWDAH IN THE NEW TESTAMENT

First of all, we must remember that at Yahshua’s time in Yeruwshalem, most of the so-called “Jews” ignored the Sacred Name of the Father; therefore, they also ignored the real meaning of the name Yahuwdah. Also, we must remember that because of the Hebrews’ (Yisraeylites-Israelites) rebelliousness as a whole nation, Yahweh has made them spiritually blind, in order to give the Gentiles a chance for salvation, (according to the Book of Romans 11: verses 7, 11, and 25).

Under these circumstances, most of the so called Jews, including the Pharisees, called themselves Yahuwdiy (singular) or Yahuwdiym (plural of the name Yahuwdah), without clearly understanding the meaning of that title or name.

Knowing these details, let us read from the book of Romans chapter 2: verse 17, where the Apostle Shaul (Paul), rebuking the Pharisees, told them: “…Behold, you are called a Jew, and restest in the law (Torah), and make your boast in Eylohim...”

If we consider the time when Shaul wrote the rebuke, we have to conclude that he could not have used the title “Jew” for two reasons: First, we have to remember that what we read in our present versions is actually a translation from a third foreign language (Greek, Latin, and English, respectively). During the first century (of the Common Era), the Greek and the Latin people referred to the Hebrew (Jews), as “Ioudaios,” because the letter “J” did not exist in any language. So it was not until the sixteenth century that the English version changed the title “Ioudaios” to the form of “Jews” as we know it today.

Secondly, it is not possible that the apostle Shaul, a well-educated man who spoke impeccable Hebrew, and a great scholar of the Sacred Scripture, would use a false title to refer to the descendants of Yahuwdah.

But there is another detail. The most reliable source we have today, the Strong’s concordance of the Sacred Scripture, in referring to the so-called “Jew,” uses the title “Yehuwdiy,” almost same as Yahuwdiy, but not “Judah”!

Knowing all this, it is doubtful that the Apostle Shaul used the title “Jew,” but instead, he wrote in the book of Romans chapter 2: verse 17: “Behold, you are called a Yahuwdiy, and rest in the law, and make your boast in Eylohim.”

Now, if we paraphrase the verse, Shaul in fact told the Pharisees, “…You are called a worshiper of Yahweh;” because he added in verse 18, “And knows His will,” in verse 19, “And are confident that you yourself are a guide of the blind, a light of them which are in darkness.” And finally, in verse 24: “For the Name of Yahweh is blasphemed among the nations through you.” This means that the Apostle was addressing the teachers of the Sacred Scriptures.

With all this evidence, it is clear that the Apostle did not write “Jew,” but Yahuwdiy, because he was referring to descendants of Yahuwdah, who supposedly were in charge of the Torah. So Shaul was not talking or questioning the pedigree of the Pharisees. He knew that they were Yahuwdah’s descendants, so by the flesh, they were Yahuwdiym (plural); but not in the Spiritual sense, which was the cause of the rebuke.

In the same book of Romans, chapter 3: verse 1, the Apostle asks a question to the Pharisees saying, “…What advantage then had the Yahuwdiy or what profit is there of circumcision…?” Again, the same question for us is, did he write Yahuwdiy or “Jew” as we read in the popular versions? The answer is obvious. He wrote Yahuwdiy, as we will soon prove.

In verse 2, he answered his own question, saying, “…Much in every way: Chiefly, because that to them were committed the oracles of Yahweh...” Here is another question: Did the elder Yisraeyl commit the Torah and the oracles to the “Jews”? Absolutely not, instead he conferred the charge of the Torah to someone called Yahuwdah, as we read in Genesis chapter 49: verse 10; Psalm 60: verse 7; and Psalm 108: verse 8. And this is obvious: Yahweh entrusted His Torah to someone who will praise and revere His Name, rather than to a negligent people. But also, the title “Jew” was unknown at the time that Yisraeyl gave the charge of the Torah to Yahuwdah. So in verse 1, Shaul really wrote “Yahuwdiy” (singular), not “Jew”!

In the book of Revelation chapter 2: verse 8 and 9, we read of the rebuke to one of the Assemblies of that time. The Assembly of Smyrna was told by Yahshua Himself, “…These things said the First and the Last, which was dead, and is alive, I know your works, and tribulations, and poverty, (but you are rich) and I know how you are slandered by those which say they are Yahuwdiym, and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan...”. Of course, our present versions reads “Jews” instead of Yahuwdiym in this verse, but obviously, Yahshua did not use this poor title. He, himself, would not distort the truth.

So, did Yahshua Himself say “Jews” as we read in our present versions or “Yahuwdiym” as is the true title? Certainly the ones who were slandering the Assembly were the descendants of Yahuwdah by flesh. So certainly they were carnal Yahuwdiym, but they were not Yahuwdiym in the Spiritual sense, because they didn’t praise the Sacred Name of the Father Yahweh. But since the point of the rebuke was of Spiritual matters, obviously Yahshua said, “…I know how you are slandered by those which say they are worshippers of Yahweh (Jews), and are not...” So again in this verse, the original writer did not write “Jews,” but Yahuwdiym (plural) which translated means “worshipers of Yahweh.”

Later, in Revelation chapter 3: verses 8 and 9, addressing the Philadelphia Assembly, Yahshua told them, “…I know your works; Behold, I have set before you an open door, and no man can shut it: for you have a little power, and have kept My Word, and have not denied My Name. Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are Yahuwdiym (Jews), and are not, but do lie; Behold, I will make them to come and worship before your feet, and to know that I have loved you...” As we read here, those so-called Yahuwdiym (Jews) were the same who were slandering the Smyrna Assembly, and who in the flesh were Yahuwdiym, but since the subject was of Spiritual matters, they were lying when they called themselves “Yahuwdiym” (worshipers of Yahweh).

Now, if we accept that the word “Jews” was the title used in these passages, we never will understand the real message sent from Heaven. Why? Because the term “Jews” never existed in the Scriptures, until the 16^thcentury of the Common Era; worse yet, this term or title does not mean any thing at all. So how could we understand the purpose of Yahshua’s rebuke to the Smyrna Assembly and the blessings given to the Philadelphia Assembly, if we cannot distinguish the true title Yahuwdiy (and its meanings), from the false title “Jews” which has no meaning?

PROVING THE TRUE TITLE

So let us very seriously consider these passages in order to find the right answer to the big question: Did the Apostle Shaul and Yahshua Himself say “Jews,” a title that did not exist at that time, nor has any meaning, or instead did they say “Yahuwdiym” which is a Hebrew word, and means “worshipers of Yahweh?”

From the last passage we read in the book of Revelation we can find the answer to this question when it states, “…For you have a little power, and have kept my words, and have not denied My Name....” This means that this Assembly was keeping Yahweh’s commandments, and did not deny His Name. In other words, this Assembly really was confessing, celebrating, giving thanks, revering and praising Yahweh’s Name. They were true worshippers of Yahweh, and certainly they were the true Yahuwdiym in the Spiritual sense, without care of their status, race or language.

But this is only one part of the answer. Certainly all those who do not deny the Name of the Father, but confess and praise Him, were and are the true “Yahuwdiym” (plural of Yahuwdiy).

But the answer to the most important question remains: Who was Yahuwdah in the past, and who is Yahuwdah in this present time? If we cannot identify to which “Yahuwdah” Yisraeyl was referring to in his blessings, it will be very difficult to understand other messages mentioned in the Sacred Book, in reference to Yahuwdah.

Let us recall the origin of the Name in question. In Genesis chapter 29: verse 35 Leah said, “…Now I will Praise Yahweh: Therefore she called his name Yahuwdah...” Then, as was previously explained, the “name” Yahuwdah was composed of two Hebrew words: “Yah,” the Name of the Father, and “yadah,” which means to confess, to celebrate, to give thanks, to revere, to worship and to praise. So the name Yahuwdah means one who confesses and praises Yahweh’s Name. But the carnal Yahuwdah (the son of Leah) never did such things, nor did most of his descendants. So this confirms that this carnal Yahuwdah was not the one to whom Yisraeyl gave the blessings and the promises, but rather to another of his future descendants, who really would praise Yahweh’s Name.

So let us read again from Genesis chapter 49: verse 8, where Yisraeyl gave the blessings to Yahuwdah, saying: “…Yahuwdah, You are He whom your brothers shall praise, Your hand shall be in the neck of your enemies; Your father’s children shall bow down before You…” And verse 10, adds: “…The Sceptre shall not depart from Yahuwdah, nor a Lawgiver (Torah giver) from between his feet…”. We know of nothing like this happening to the carnal Yahuwdah. So who was—and who is—this personage that His brothers shall praise, and His “Father’s children shall bow down before Him”? Thanks to the Almighty Heavenly Father for allowing us to understand today that Yisraeyl ( Israel ) was talking of the future Yahshua; Yes, Yahshua was and will be the true Yahuwdah, by the flesh and by the Spirit!

Can we prove this statement through the Sacred Book? Certainly we can. Reading through all the book of Psalms it is very easy to confirm how our Savior Yahshua (who inspired the Book), did Praise the Name of Yahweh thousands of times throughout the entire book. We are told that king Daviyd wrote the Psalms, but the question is: Who inspired him? The answer: Yahshua Himself. In other words, Yahshua Himself speaks throughout the entire book of Psalms. We can clearly understand this when we read from that book how He prayed so humbly, and confessed, worshipped, celebrated, gave thanks and praised with much fear, faith, and reverence to the Name of the Father YHWH. And through His prayers, He also predicted many things of His future sufferings and distress. All this, clearly proves that the One who spoke in the book of Psalms, was Yahshua Himself. So as the most vehement and humble worshipper of Yahweh the Father, He was, and He is the true “Yahuwdah” in Spirit to whom Leah referred, and to whom Yisraeyl gave all those blessings mentioned before.

Now, knowing this undeniable truth, here is the other question: Who are those “brothers that shall praise Him”? Naturally, they are the ones who also praise the Name of the Father (as we read earlier from the book of Revelation chapter 3: verse 9), the ones who today, as those of the Philadelphia Assembly of the past, did not deny the Sacred Name. Let us read from Psalm 22: verse 22, where Yahshua, praying to the Father, says: “…I will declare Your Name to my brothers…” Many centuries later, we find in the Book of Yahkhanan (John) chapter 17: verse 6, where Yahshua again, praying to the Father, said: “…I have declared Your Name to the men whom You gave me...” And again, in the book of Hebrews chapter 2: verse 12, it states: “…I will declare Your Name to my brothers, in the middle of the Assembly will I sing praise to You....” And certainly the Sacred Name was declared to the faithful believers, the ones who today worship and praise Yahweh, as those of the Philadelphia Assembly did two thousand years ago, who knew the Name of Yahweh, and did not deny it, but they confessed and praised Him by His Name. This is the answer to that question: we are those “brothers that shall praise the Spiritual Yahuwdah, which is Yahshua.”

But we still have the other part of the blessing, which says: “Your Father’s children shall bow down before You.” Who are those children of His Father, to bow down before Him? To find the answer, let us read a portion from the book of Yeshayah (Isaiah) chapter 8: verse 18, where again Yahshua Himself says: “Behold, I and the children whom Yahweh has given Me are for signs and for wonders in Yisraeyl ( Israel ).”

And also in the book of Hebrews chapter 2: verses 12 and 13, Yahshua says, “I will declare Your Name to my brothers, in the middle of the congregation will I sing praise to You…I will wait for Yahweh… Behold, I and the children whom Yahweh has given Me…” This is the answer to the second question, which says: “Your Father’s children shall bow down before you.”

But who are those “children of Yahweh,” which have been given to Yahshua? In the book of Romans chapter 8: verse 14, we read the following: “For as many as are led by the Spirit of Yahweh, they are the sons of Yahweh.” And verse 16 of the same chapter says, “The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit, that we are children of Yahweh.” Also, in the book of Galatians chapter 3: verse 26, Shaul (Paul) told the faithful Galatians, “For you are all the children of Yahweh.” These Scriptures alone are enough to prove that the faithful believers are the sons of Yahshua’s Father and verify the scripture of Genesis 49:8, which reads: “Your Father’s children shall bow down before you.” With all these statements there is no doubt that Yahshua was, is, and shall be the true Spiritual Yahuwdah. His brothers who will “Praise Him,” and the children of His Father who shall “Bow down before Him,” are the ones who confess, revere, celebrate, worship, and praise Yahweh as the ones of the past did; and the ones of this present day do the same, congregates in different Assemblies around the world. Also, all the individuals who confess and praise Yahweh wherever they are, all of those are the brothers and children who “shall praise, and bow down before Yahuwdah, who is Yahshua.” In other words, the promises came through the carnal “Yahuwdah” to one of his descendants by the flesh: the One who was the most faithful and fervent worshipper of Yahweh, throughout all His human life, and through all eternity, He is Yahshua! Furthermore, to whom belongs the Scepter? Unquestionably to Yahshua! And who is the Lawgiver (Torah giver)? Without doubt, also Yahshua!

Now, if this is so, we must restore the true name Yahuwdah, and remove the false “ Judah .” Also, we must restore the right title “Yahuwdiym,” and remove the substitute title “Jews,” which is only a title coined by the Gentiles to refer to the descendants of Yahuwdah in the flesh. Those descendants in the flesh of the patriarch Yahuwdah are Yahuwdiym in the flesh; but the worshippers of Yahweh (any race and language), they are the true Yahuwdiym in Spirit.

To conclude this message, let us mention this: As we have proved in this study, we must restore the true names in the next translations, and the right titles to their original forms in order to correctly understand the true plan of salvation which we read from the sacred book. Furthermore, if we neglect to do so, we will continue to miss many revelations, such as the one that we have uncovered today: The name “ Judah ” never existed in the Hebrew language, it was only a fake substitution. All the Hebrew names have a purpose in their original form. But as all the names were substituted in the translations of the past, our Heavenly Creator requires from us the task to “restore” them before Yahshua’s return for the second time.

The work remains for the true faithful believers to restore those names and the titles that were mistranslated in the past. This is the most unavoidable task of “restitutions” as part of the commandment that we read in the book of Acts, chapter 3: verses 20 and 21. However, if we ignore and neglect this commandment and keep on assuming that the translations that we have today are complete and correct, then we are accepting the same mistakes and following the same negligence as our ancestors, following suppositions of men rather than obeying Almighty Yahweh. Brothers, we must support these restitutions (the manuscript is ready), as a proof of our faith and obedience to the Heavenly Father Yahweh, and to our Savior Yahshua. What we have proved in this message has shown us how much we are missing by accepting those fake names. Can we restore the true names rather than use the Latin substitutions? The answer is YES, absolutely! A new version is coming up, with all the names restored as close as possible to the original Hebrew, and is almost ready to be published! Please, pray to our Heavenly Creator that this version (The Scripture of Truth) be accepted before Him.

So the question: “Who was Judah ?” The answer is: No one! The “name” never existed in the Hebrew language; the true name was Yahuwdah, which means a “Worshipper of YHWH”.

May Yahweh the Father inspire all the faithful believers, and lead us to take another step forward in His ordinance regarding the “Restitution of all things,” HalleluYah.
