=SCHECHAQIM reveals HEAVEN and the presence of DUST / CLOUDS. Clouds can be a 'visible mass of condensed water' or clouds can be of DUST stirred up by a wind. God made man from DUST to be 'born of water and the Spirit' - transformed by the WATER of the Word. Hebrews 12 [LAMED - the HEART of a disciple] tells us we are surrounded by a great cloud of witnesses.
God promised Abraham that He would 'make your descendants as the sand of the sea, which cannot be numbered for multitude.' The sand (rock) of the 'sea' (mass of water), which can not be measured of numbered. Israel was in bondage to the 'elements of the world' [Galatians 4], but Israel will be known by the 'heart life of the 'water of the Word' God sent a Deliverer - Moses [drawn from the water] to bring Israel up - 'out of the water' [the wisdom of the world], 'out of the (Red) sea'

The word SAND comes from a root meaning: to twist, whirl, dance, writhe, fear, tremble, travail, be in anguish, be pained. God is taking His people, as the sand (rock) of the sea (water) out of EGYPT whose ruler is Pharaoh: the evil mouth. [post 18 - 6-18-11]

Joel 3:19
Egypt shall be a desolation, and Edom shall be a desolate wilderness,
for the violence against the children of Judah, because they have shed
innocent blood in their land.
Revelation 11:8
And their dead bodies will lie in the street of the great city which spiritually is
called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified.
God brought Israel through the RED SEA. The Egyptians however were unable to pass through and were drowned.

Egypt shall be a desolation, and Edom shall be a desolate wilderness,
for the violence against the children of Judah, because they have shed
innocent blood in their land.
(Spiritually) Egypt is a people that declare themselves ruled by an 'evil mouth'. They 'live in a place' of the 'water of the rock' but because of being 'ruled by' the 'evil mouth', any words that Jesus would not speak, God sends someone 'drawn from the water' to take them through the Red Sea that they understand their 'connection to kingdom authority' and celebrate PASSOVER. Jesus came in the flesh to do just that for us. The ones under the authority of the 'evil mouth' are bearing down on Israel as they are being led out through the Red Sea, and Moses finally gets them to the place of the 'water of the rock' in the 'wilderness' [post 51 on 7-22] [wilderness = m water of the rbd Word] that they 'can see and understand - clearly. Moses, who was 'drawn from the water' struck the rock 'twice' [Ginsburgh] as if to divide the higher and lower waters. The wisdom of heaven IS the wisdom of earth - 'on earth as it is in heaven'. Do you remember it is said that 'Moses permitted divorce' BUT I SAY NO'. When you allow an action that does not agree with heaven, you forfeit, by that action, entering into the promise that God has planned, because you have halted it.
Jesus Christ was of the tribe of Judah. Violence met Him through His own brothers, not an 'outside force'. The government was used as a means of carrying out the 'act'. The 'anointed lampstands' - Jewish believers - are killed when they finish their testimony in JERUSALEM, spiritually called 'Sodom and EGYPT. Since their bodies lie there 3 1/2 days in public view it 'suggests' the government, just as in Jesus time, is playing a part. With Cain and Abel, it was brother against brother. With Esau and Jacob (twins) it was brother against brother. With Joseph and his brothers, it was brothers against brother. With the prophets and the people, it was 'brother against brother'. With Jesus and the Jewish brethren, it was brother against brother, and with the Jewish witnesses, who will declare the Word to the world - as did Jesus - -who will it be? Will it be 'blood brother against blood brother'? Jesus came that brother would forgive brother - as he did - and brother would love brother - as He did. (And for the record, I am NOT anti-semite - I report what is written). The outside forces [Iran, Syria, 'the world'] have a hold because the inside forces [Jewish brethren: Orthodox, Messianic] are yet divided. As in the flesh, also in the Spirit, which allows the 'outside forces' to take 'prey'.
Mark 13:12
Now brother will betray brother to death, and a father his child;
and children will rise up against parents and cause them to be put to death.
Mark 13:12
Now brother will betray brother to death, and a father his child;
and children will rise up against parents and cause them to be put to death.

Isaiah 63:11
Then he remembered the days of old, Moses and his people, saying:
"Where is He who brought them up out of the sea with the shepherd
of His flock? Where is He who put His Holy Spirit within them ...
[Matthew 12:34] Out of the abundance of the HEART, the MOUTH speaks. The MOUTH is 'consummate', identifying the 'marriage relationship - either Christ or Satan. Words produce 'actions' - obedience. Faith without works - without actions / without obedience - is dead. God brought His people Israel up out of the RED SEA - from the 'wisdom and authority of the world to His wisdom and authority - to celebrate PASSOVER:
ADAM ed) [See post 32 ADAM- 7-4-11] was created RED- in the blood image of God. ESAU who is EDOM ed) [Genesis 36:1], is also RED, but DESPISED his birthright [Genesis 25:34], as firstborn. At the time of the 10th plague (authority), the 'angel of death', was instructed to passover the firstborn who displayed the blood of the Lamb on the doorpost. Firstborn who did not have the blood of the Lamb on their doorpost succumbed to death.
Take a moment and think: Esau, who is EDOM, is a TWIN brother to 'Jewish Jacob'. If one is Jewish, what of the other? Jacob had a 'heart for the 'Word of God' [Christ, the Word made flesh, 'firstborn'], but Esau, who sold His birthright as 'firstborn', despising it, did not have this same heart. Jesus Christ [Isaiah 53:3] was despised and rejected by men. Can a 'twin brother' change his 'nationality? Go from 'black to white? From Jew to Arab? Yet Esau is EDOM - 'Arab br(', which is to say 'sterile / barren / unable to produce children'. But God yet has a plan for the 'barren' [Galatians 4]. And what of EGYPT / MITZRAYIM? How is it descendants of SHEM [the Name] of whom the tribe of Judah is aligned in the flesh are name as Mitzrayim. Mizraim [Genesis 10 / authority] was a son of Ham of Cush. Mizraim, by the name of Egypt is introduced in Genesis 12 [LAMED: HEART of a disciple] when Abram went to sojourn there because of a famine in Canaan [post 68 - 8-08-11]. MITZRAYIM is likened to [aynt tan-neen' / serpent / dragon]. And JERUSALEM is known spiritually as 'Sodom and Egypt'. Do we need to look at character (as an emeny) - and not flesh (as the enemy)?
Ezekiel 32:2
"Son of man, take up a lamentation for Pharaoh king of Egypt, and say to him:
'You are like a young lion among the nations,
and you are like a whale / sea monster [aynt tan-neen' / serpent / dragon],
in the seas, bursting forth in your rivers,
troubling the waters with your feet, and fouling their rivers.'
Genesis 1:21 [SHIN / FIRE] gives us our first seeing of the 'serpent' 'the dragon' - the whale'. The woman [Eve] encounters the serpent, Jonah (the dove) is swallowed by the 'whale', and Job [persecuted / hated one] calls himself 'the brother of a dragon'.

In Exodus 7 Moses is sent to Pharaoh, King of Egypt: Take thy rod, and cast it before Pharaoh, and it shall become a serpent.aynt tan-neen'. In Deuteronomy 32, Moses prophesies over Israel of a time to come that Israel will 'forsake God', that their vine is the 'vine of Sodom' - - that 'their wine is the poison of serpents' aynt tan-neen'.
Deuteronomy 32
33 For their wine is the poison of serpents aynt tan-neen'.
... and the cruel venom of cobras.
34 Is this not laid up in store with Me, sealed among My treasures
35 Vengeance is Mine, and recompense; their foot shall slip
... in due time; for the day of their calamity is at hand,
... and the things to come hasten upon them.'
36 'For the LORD will judge His people and have compassion
... on His servants, when He sees that their power is gone,
... and there is no one remaining, bond or free.
When Nehemiah viewed the broken walls of Jerusalem it was from the 'dragon gate'. Job wonders if God sees him as aynt tan-neen', and says that he is a 'brother to dragons'. Psalm 44:3 notes that Israel was not able to gain possession of the land by their own sword, but only because God favored them. Israel tells God their heart is not turned back from Him, but that 'You have severely broken us in the place of 'dragons', and covered us with the shadow of death'. Israel notes in Psalm 74 that 'Thou didst divide the sea by thy strength: thou brakest the heads of the dragons in the waters.' Isaiah prophesies that Israel will be restored, but that he will punich Leviathan, the serpent, the dragon:
Isaiah 27
1 In that day the LORD with His severe sword, great and strong,
will punish Leviathan [sea monster, dragon] the piercing serpent,
Leviathan that crooked serpent
And He will slay the dragon aynt tan-neen'. that is in the sea.
Isaiah 34 speaks of the 'day of the Lord's vengeance' and that time the land will be a 'habitation of dragons'. Isaiah 35 then mentions the 'future glory of Zion, and that where their was a 'habitation of dragons' now there will be a 'highway of holiness'. In Isaiah 43 the 'dragon shall honor Him. Isaiah 51 recounts 'cutting down Rahab [Egypt] and wounding the dragon'.
Jeremiah 9:11
And I will make Jerusalem heaps, and a den of dragons;
and I will make the cities of Judah desolate, without an inhabitant.
Jeremiah 10:22
Behold, the noise of the bruit is come,
and a great commotion out of the north country*,
to make the cities of Judah desolate, and a den of dragons.
Scripture notes the 'north country' as by the river Euphrates - which would be Turkey:
Jeremiah 46:10
For the Lord God of hosts has a sacrifice In the north country by the River Euphrates.
Jeremiah 14:6
And the wild asses * did stand in the high places, they snuffed up
the wind like dragons; their eyes did fail, because there was no grass.
*Ishmael [God will hear] was prophesied to be as a 'wild ass'. Ishmael is a son of Abraham (by the flesh), by the Egyptian handmaid Hagar: FLIGHT. Even though 'Hagar' is cast out, God yet promises Hagar and Abraham that he will make Ishmael a great nation. Ishmael is a son of the 'flesh' versus a son of the 'spirit' and Hagar [Galatians 4:25] corresponds to Jerusalem which now is, and is in bondage with her children--
Jeremiah 49:33
And Hazor [castle] [in Naphtali] shall be a dwelling for dragons, and a
desolation for ever: there shall no man abide there, nor any son of man dwell in it.
Jeremiah 51:34
Nebuchadrezzar the king of Babylon hath devoured me, he hath crushed me,
he hath made me an empty vessel, he hath swallowed me up like a dragon,
he hath filled his belly with my delicates, he hath cast me out.
Jeremiah 51:37
And Babylon [ a mixed people] shall become heaps, a dwellingplace for dragons,
an astonishment, and an hissing, without an inhabitant.
The book of Lamentations (spoke 3, GIMEL, the 'angel of death) opens with Jerusalem sitting as a 'lonely widow'. Zion is captive and God is angry with Jerusalem. Jeremiah weeps but is comforted that there is 'yet hope' even though Zion lays in degradation.
Lamentations 1:8
The LORD has purposed to destroy the wall of the daughter of Zion.
He has stretched out a line; He has not withdrawn His hand from destroying;
Therefore He has caused the rampart and wall to lament ...

....Let the Lord GOD be a witness against you,

..3 For behold, the LORD is coming out of His place; He will come down
....And tread on the high places of the earth.
..4 The mountains will melt under Him, and the valleys will split like

..5 All this is for the transgression of Jacob and for the sins of
....the house of Israel. What is the transgression of Jacob?
....Is it not Samaria [the watch mountain]?
....And what are the high places of Judah? Are they not Jerusalem?
..6 Therefore I will make Samaria a heap of ruins in the field,

..7 All her carved images shall be beaten to pieces,
....and all her pay as a harlot shall be burned with the fire;
....all her idols I will lay desolate, for she gathered it from the
....pay of a harlot, and they shall return to the pay of a harlot."
Mourning for Israel and Judah
..8 Therefore I will wail and howl,I will go stripped and naked;
....I will make a wailing like the dragons
....and a mourning like the ostriches,
..9 For her wounds are incurable. for it has come to Judah;
....It has come to the gate of My people to Jerusalem.
10 Tell it not in Gath [winepress], weep not at all;
....In Beth Aphrah [house of / to dust] .. Roll yourself in the dust.
11 Pass by in naked shame, you inhabitant of Shaphir [fair];
....the inhabitant of Zaanan [pointed] does not go out.
....Beth Ezel [house of narrowing] mourns;
....Its place to stand is taken away from you.
12 For the inhabitant of Maroth [bitterness] pined for good,
....but disaster came down from the LORD to the gate of Jerusalem.
13 O inhabitant of Lachish [invincible],
....Harness the chariot to the swift steeds
....(She was the beginning of sin to the daughter of Zion),
....For the transgressions of Israel were found in you.
14 Therefore you shall give presents to Moresheth Gath [possessor of the winepress];
The houses of Achzib [dust] shall be a lie to the kings of Israel.
15 I will yet bring an heir to you, O inhabitant of Mareshah [crest of a hill]; [See Psalm 24]
....The glory of Israel shall come to Adullam [justice of the people].
16 Make yourself bald and cut off your hair, because of your precious children;
....enlarge your baldness like an eagle,for they shall go from you into captivity
Revelation 12 [LAMED - the heart of a disciple] begins with a picture of the 'woman and the dragon (serpent / whale)' a familiar story line from Genesis, but now the woman has the moon under her feet [her moon / monthly cycle under her authority]. The dragon is enraged intending now to kill all her offspring.
With this in mind we will continue with with thoughts on SHECHAQIM as 'DUST CLOUDS' as from 'threshing':
Isaiah 27
1 In that day the LORD with His severe sword, great and strong,
will punish Leviathan [sea monster, dragon] the piercing serpent,
Leviathan that crooked serpent
And He will slay the dragon aynt tan-neen'. that is in the sea.
Isaiah 34 speaks of the 'day of the Lord's vengeance' and that time the land will be a 'habitation of dragons'. Isaiah 35 then mentions the 'future glory of Zion, and that where their was a 'habitation of dragons' now there will be a 'highway of holiness'. In Isaiah 43 the 'dragon shall honor Him. Isaiah 51 recounts 'cutting down Rahab [Egypt] and wounding the dragon'.

And finally Micah prophesies of judgment on Israel and Judah. Keep in mind that the Book of Revelation will make known the 'Mother of Harlots'.
