Divine Epistemology - Knowing God

[RAMcGough]

Epistemology is the philosophical study of knowledge, how we know and what it means to know something.

The word "epistemology" is straight from the Greek ἐπίσταμαι (epistamai, G1987, to know).

God encoded His divine epistemology into the Hebrew word "to know"

YOD (hand) Dalet (door) AYIN (eye)

Real knowledge involves both touching with the hand and seeing with the eye. Thus we understand 1 John 1:1

1 John 1:1 That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, of the Word of life; 2 (For the life was manifested, and we have seen it, and bear witness, and shew unto you that eternal life, which was with the Father, and was manifested unto us;) 3 That which we have seen and heard declare we unto you, that ye also may have fellowship with us: and truly our fellowship is with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ. 4And these things write we unto you, that your joy may be full.

Within yado are the letters of ed (witness) as in this verse:

Isaiah 43:10 Ye are my witnesses, saith the LORD, and my servant whom I have chosen: that ye may know and believe me, and understand that I am he: before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me.


אַתֶּם עֵדַי נְאֻם־יְהוָה וְעַבְדִּי אֲשֶׁר בָּחָרְתִּי לְמַעַן תֵּדְעוּ וְתַאֲמִינוּ לִי וְתָבִינוּ כִּי־אֲנִי הוּא לְפָנַי לֹא־נוֹצַר אֵל וְאַחֲרַי לֹא יִהְיֶה׃


Here we see "edi" (my witnesses) spelled ayin dalet yod (same letters as "to know" and the promise is that the Servant of YHVH (Jesus Christ) will enable us to KNOW and BELIEVE (emunah).

These verses are very deep and worthy of much meditation. This is one of the primary projective keylinks from the 3D Bible onto the 2D image of the Bible within the Bible, aka the Book of Isaiah.

The phrase "that ye may know and believe appears no where in Scripture other than these two mathematically correlated verses.

You can SEE and TOUCH the evidence God has presented to you in His Holy Word. Then when you reach out to Christ in faith, you will KNOW Him in your soul. This is as intimate as relations between a man and his wife, as explained by Paul:

Ephesian 5:25 Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself for her, 26that He might [g]sanctify and cleanse her with the washing of water by the word, 27 that He might present her to Himself a glorious church, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing, but that she should be holy and without blemish. 28 So husbands ought to love their own wives as their own bodies; he who loves his wife loves himself. 29For no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as the Lord does the church. 30For we are members of His body, [h]of His flesh and of His bones. 31“For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh.” 32This is a great mystery, but I speak concerning Christ and the church.

And this links back to Genesis when Adam "KNEW" his wife Eve and she conceived. I pray these words will help Christ be born in all who read this, as Paul explained:

Galatians 4:19 My little children, of whom I travail in birth again until Christ be formed in you,

He used the language of BIRTH. Becoming a Christian is not a mere "intellectual" activity. It is not mere assent to a belief. As James said "The devils believe and tremble".

Real faith is an action of the soul when it turns towards God.

God bless you all as you work out your salavation in fear and trembling.

yes, to add more the phrase "לְמַ֣עַן תֵּ֠דְע֠וּ וְתַאֲמִ֨ינוּ לִ֤י וְתָבִ֙ינוּ֙ כִּֽי־אֲנִ֣י ה֔וּא לְפָנַי֙ לֹא־נ֣וֹצַר אֵ֔ל וְאַחֲרַ֖י לֹ֥א יִהְיֶֽה" = in_Hebrew_gematria=2664 (not the entire one,you post)

if you can't find it...it's easy in fact!

and this "name" is related to the three stars or magis... there is only one named after that but it isn't the star of the Lord but of his holy place or her companion star if you prefer, as it is "his temple" his temple is her, "a star"..."companion"... not him in fact.
it's funny because H318 is the word other that follows other "person" or star (in the sky)

what place you think was that?

Fabulous question Geert! We know the place. Jacob gave it a name Beth El (Bethel), the House of God.

Gen 28:16 And Jacob awaked out of his sleep, and he said, Surely the LORD is in this place; and I knew it not. 19 And he was afraid, and said, How dreadful is this place! this is none other but the house of God, and this is the gate of heaven.

Beit is the 2nd letter of the Hebrew alphabet. It reveals the nature of the Second Person of the Trinity, the Son (Ben) who is The Word (Ho Logos) = 443 = Bet El.

The written Word of God (the Bible) reveals the living Word of God (Jesus Christ). Peter made this clear:

4 To whom coming, as unto a living stone, disallowed indeed of men, but chosen of God, and precious, 5 Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ. 6 Wherefore also it is contained in the scripture, Behold, I lay in Sion a chief corner stone, elect, precious: and he that believeth on him shall not be confounded. 7 Unto you therefore which believe he is precious: but unto them which be disobedient, the stone which the builders disallowed, the same is made the head of the corner, 8 And a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offence, even to them which stumble at the word, being disobedient: whereunto also they were appointed.

Christ is the living Word revealed in the written Word. Those who reject Him are disobedient to the Bible.

Christ revealed Himself to be "Jacob's ladder", the "Gate of Heaven" -

John 1:51 And he saith unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Hereafter ye shall see heaven open, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of man.

This is why Jacob made a pillow of the "stones of that place" (plural me-eveni hamaqom = 294 = ecclesia (church, the body of Christ) but when he made the pillar he used a single stone (ha-even, Christ), exactly as Peter explained "livings stones" (plural = church) and "living stone" = Christ.

This is an exceedingly rich passage.

"And he took stones of the place" = 418 = Beitu (His House)

God our Father built His House of living stones, with Christ the Chief Cornerstone.

"Surely the Lord is in this place" = 612 = b'rit (covenant) = graphe (scripture) = "and I knew it not"

"Surely the LORD is in this place; and I knew it not." = 1224 = THE NET (John 21:6)

Joh 21:6 And he said unto them, Cast the net on the right side of the ship, and ye shall find. They cast therefore, and now they were not able to draw it for the multitude of fishes.

And how many fish?

Joh 21:11 Simon Peter went up, and drew the net to land full of great fishes, an hundred and fifty and three: and for all there were so many, yet was not the net broken.

We have the identities: THE NET = 1224 = 2 x 612 (covenant/scripture) = 8 x 153 = 8 x T(17)

And of course 17 = fish (da-yag)

Ye shall be fishers of men! This is the Gospel! The New Covenant! This is the Word of God.

REPENT AND BELIEVE THE GOSPEL!

Amen.

You are focused on the shadow. Christ is the substance. He is Jacob's Ladder - our Gate to Heaven:

John 1:51And he saith unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Hereafter ye shall see heaven open, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of man.

Colossians 2:16 Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days: 17 Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of Christ.

Hebrews 10:1 For the law having a shadow of good things to come, and not the very image of the things,

Hebrews 8:1 Now of the things which we have spoken this is the sum: We have such an high priest, who is set on the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens; 2 A minister of the sanctuary, and of the true tabernacle, which the Lord pitched, and not man. 3 For every high priest is ordained to offer gifts and sacrifices: wherefore it is of necessity that this man have somewhat also to offer. 4 For if he were on earth, he should not be a priest, seeing that there are priests that offer gifts according to the law: 5 Who serve unto the example and shadow of heavenly things, as Moses was admonished of God when he was about to make the tabernacle: for, See, saith he, that thou make all things according to the pattern shewed to thee in the mount. 6 But now hath he obtained a more excellent ministry, by how much also he is the mediator of a better covenant, which was established upon better promises. 7 For if that first covenant had been faultless, then should no place have been sought for the second.
