The Name of JESUS / YESHUA - 4 of 5

The fourth letter of the Name of JESUS / YESHUA, a vowel sound, is VAV, by symbol the NAIL, by meaning 'HOOK. The 'vavim' are hooks that hold the curtains made for for the tent of meeting / tabernacle. As such each page of a Torah Scroll begins with the VAV, connecting each page as 'curtains for the tabernacle of the Word' - as 'curtains of light' - the place we come to meet God. The VAV by name is called 'STRAIGHT LIGHT' - also - the 'UPRIGHT MAN' an apt description of JESUS CHRIST, MESSIAH.

The first time the VAV appears it is 'connecting' the heavens and the earth. Jesus taught his apostles to pray, 'thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.' For God's will to be done, man must walk in the 'light' of the Word, the walk that Christ walked. Christ prophesied that He would be 'lifted up' - as an 'upright' man - and draw all men to Himself. Uprightness comes only through the cross.

John 12:32-33
32 And I, if I am lifted up from the earth,
... will draw all peoples to Myself."

33 This He said, signifying by what death He would die.


Jesus is the 'connection' of 'life and death'. And as the connection - He is the 'door' that all men must pass through - the door of entry and the door of exiting. Jesus is the 'way the truth, and the life' and the 'light of the world'.

In Hebrew the word for 'hear' is also the word meaning 'to obey'. Hearing is not 'hearing' without OBEDIENCE. If one does not obey what he 'hears', there is a problem with rebellion and /or deafness. To hear is to obey. Many talk - few walk.

1 John 1
5 This is the message which we have heard from Him and declare to you,
.. that God is light and in Him is no darkness at all.
6 If we say that we have fellowship with Him, and walk in darkness,

..
we lie and do not practice the truth.
7 But if we walk in the light as He is in the light,
..we have fellowship with one another,
..and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin.

VAV
for the believer who follows Jesus - who experientially WALKS
