As we continue from last Thursday, the Davar Elohim is the word of God.  What has been labeled as the 10 commandments is actually the Hebrew word mitzvah.  The Greek term is the decalogue, the 10 words.  This is also the ordering of His principles.  The first and foremost is that He is Yahweh.  He gives us His personal name.  We have to understand that each god has a name.  It is unfortunate that we have in our Bibles the removal of His personal name to be listed as God.  We have over the years been given the understanding that by capitalizing the 'g' we are giving Him honor and designating Him as separate.  He comes to tell us that in the Davar Elohim what His name is.  This is a relationship, how can we be in relationship with Him and not know His name?  His name has become so revered in the Jewish community that it has come to not be pronounced.  Over the years it has become where it is unsure of how to pronounce His name.  We have His name written as YHVH.
We also have a look at how we as humans created images as reminders of who we worship.  Why is this dangerous or an concern?  Yahweh gave this instruction in the 10 words, because all of the other people had images for their gods whether a star, moon, fish or an hybrid man-beast.  We have to fully understand that Yahweh is so high, and beyond the Earth that nothing on the Earth could adequately make an image of His likeness.  The materials and capability are both inferior to truly show all of His glory.  Click here to listen to this awesome message again! https://www.freeconferencecallhd.com/playback.html?n=RvxYy/jTsIz
