Notice the word yeshû‛âh
This word is used of the deliverance of the Israelites from
the Egyptians
(Exo_14:13),
And Mosheh said to the people, “Do not be afraid. Stand still, and see the deliverance of יהוה, which He does for you today. For the Mitsrites whom you see today,
you are never, never to see again. and of deliverance generally from evil
or danger. In the New Testament it is specially used with reference
to the great deliverance from the guilt and the pollution of sin
wrought out
by Yahushua Ha Mashiach, “the great salvation”
(Heb_2:3)
how shall we escape if we neglect so great a deliverance, which first began to be spoken by the Master, and was confirmed
to us by those that heard,
In hebrews we are shown six steps that lead us to salvation, the 7th being the grace of our Master Yahushua Ha Mashiach. Speaking earlier Paul said
Heb 5:6 ,Psa 110:4
As He also says in another place, “You are a priest forever according to the order
of Malkitseḏeq,” יהוה has sworn and does not relent, “You are a priest forever According to the
order of Malkitseḏeq.”
The perpetuity of the priesthood, here asserted on Yahweh’s oath, corresponds with that of
the
kingly office just explained.after the order
(Heb_7:15)
and this is clearer still, if another priest arises in the likeness of Malkitseḏeq,
after the similitude of Melchisedek,
is fully expounded by Paul, to denote not only perpetuity, appointment
of Yahweh, and a royal priesthood, but also the absence of priestly descent and succession, and superiority to the Aaronic
order.
concerning whom we have much to say, and hard to explain,
since you have become dull of hearing. For indeed, although by this time you
ought to be teachers, you need someone to teach you again the first elements of the Words of Elohim. And you have become such

But
solid food is for the mature whose senses have be trained by practice to discern both good and evil. Therefore, having left
the word of the beginning of the Messiah, let us go on to perfection, not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead
works, and of belief toward Elohim,
Mt.
5:48.
“Therefore,
be perfect, as your Father in the heavens is perfect. And all the congregation of the children of Yisra’ĕl set
out on their journey from the Wilderness of Sin, according to the command of יהוה Who walk in the Torah of יהוה! But whoever guards His Word, truly the love of Elohim has been perfected in him. By this we
know that we are in him
A journey , a life time commanded by Yahweh, from sin, walking in the torah, guarding
Yahweh,s word, this is the fulfilment of his command : And יהושע said to him, “ ‘You shall love יהוה your Elohim with all your heart, and with all your being, and with all
your mind.’ which is the great command in the Torah?” “This is the first and great command. striving for perfection,

footsteps.

Is it not sin that sets us apart from Yahweh
.Sin is the transgression of the law of yahweh,

the earth pass away, one jot or one tittle shall by no means pass from the Torah till all be done. “And it is easier
for the heaven and the earth to pass away than for one tittle of the Torah to fall. “Whoever, then, breaks one of the
least of these commands, and teaches men so, shall be called least in the reign of the heavens; but whoever does and teaches
them, he shall be called great in the reign of the heavens.

law is sin
By sin, is meant every sin, original sin, actual sin, every
kind of sin, lesser and greater: the "death" which sin deserves, is a corporeal death; which is not owing to the original
nature and constitution of men; nor merely to the divine appointment; but to sin, and the decree of yahweh,
Until we learn to repent of transgressing his law, which
is his way of life, from/to keeping his commandments how can we say we have repented, Sin is transgressing his Law and it
has its reward
Rom 6:23
For the wages of sin is death, but the
favourable gift of Elohim is everlasting life in Messiah יהושע our Master.
Rom 3
for all
have sinned and fall short of the esteem of Elohim, But let Elohim be true, and every man a liar, as it has been written,
“That You should be declared right in Your words, and prevail in Your judging.”
But if our unrighteousness establishes the righteousness of Elohim, what shall we say? Is Elohim unrighteous who is
inflicting wrath? I speak as a man. Let it not be! Otherwise how shall Elohim
judge the world? For if the truth of Elohim has increased through my lie, to His esteem, why am I also still judged as a sinner?And
why not say, “Let us do evil so that the good might come”? – as we are wrongly accused and
as some claim that we say. Their judgment is in the right. What then? Are we
better than they? Not at all, for we have previously accused both Yehuḏim and Greeks that they are all under sin. As it has been
written, “There is none righteous, no, not one! “There is no one who is understanding, there is none who is seeking
Elohim. “They all have turned aside, they have together become worthless.
There is none who does good, no, not one.” “Their throat is an open
tomb, with their tongues they have deceived,” “The poison of adders is under their lips,” “Whose mouth is filled with cursing and bitterness.” “Their feet are swift to shed blood,
ruin and wretchedness are in their ways, and the way
of peace they have not known.” “There is no fear of Elohim before their eyes.” And we know that whatever
the Torah says, it says to those who are in the Torah, so that every mouth might be stopped, and all the world come under
judgment before Elohim. Therefore by works of Torah no flesh shall be declared
right before Him, for by the Torah is the knowledge of sin. And Mosheh said to the people, “Do not fear, for Elohim
has come to prove you, and in order that His fear be before you, so that you do not sin.” for the Torah works out wrath,
for where there is no Torah there is no transgression. What, then, shall we say? Is the Torah sin? Let it not be! However,
I did not know sin except through the Torah. For also the covetousness I knew not if the Torah had not said, “You shall
not covet.” But sin, having taken the occasion through the command, did work in me all sorts of covetousness.
For apart from Torah sin is dead. But now, apart from the Torah, a righteousness
of Elohim has been revealed, being witnessed by the Torah and the Prophets, and
the righteousness of Elohim is through belief in יהושע
Messiah to all and on all who believe. For there is no difference, for all have
sinned and fall short of the esteem of Elohim, being declared right, without
paying, by His favour through the redemption which is in Messiah יהושע, whom Elohim set forth as an atonement, through belief
in His blood, to demonstrate His righteousness, because in His tolerance Elohim had passed over the sins that had taken place
before, to demonstrate at the present time His righteousness, that He is righteous
and declares righteous the one who has belief in יהושע. Where, then, is the boasting? It is shut out. By what Torah? Of works? No, but by the Torah of
belief. For we reckon that a man is declared right by belief without works of
Torah. Or is He the Elohim of the Yehuḏim only, and not also of the gentiles? Yea, of the gentiles also, since it
is one Elohim who shall declare right the circumcised by belief and the uncircumcised through belief. Do we then nullify the Torah through the belief? Let it not be! So that the Torah truly is set-apart,
and the command set-apart, and righteous, and good. so that as sin did reign in death, even so favour might reign through
righteousness to everlasting life through
