12 Yahweh said to Moses and Aaron, “Because you didn’t believe in me, to sanctify me in the eyes of the children of Israel, therefore you shall not bring this assembly into the land which I have given them.”
13 These are the waters of Meribah; because the children of Israel strove
with Yahweh, and he was sanctified in them. And Moses said, “Lord Yahweh, you have begun to
show your servant your greatness
and your strong hand; for what
god is there in heaven or on earth who can act according toyour works, and according to your mighty
deeds? Please let me cross over
and see that good land that
is beyond the Jordan, those good mountains, and Lebanon.” But Yahwehsaid to Moses, “Enough. Speak to me no more about this matter. Go up to the
top of Pisgah and lift up your
eyes to the west and to the north
and to the south and to the east, and see it with your eyes, for you
shall not cross over this Jordan. (Numbers 20:12-13 DSS 4Q27
fragment)
The above scripture was taken from the DSS fragments
found in the Qumran caves. The interesting part is in verse 13. The Masoretic
version does not have the following section.
“And Moses said, “Lord Yahweh, you have begun to
show your servant your greatness
and your strong hand; for what
god is there in heaven or on earth who can act according to your works, and according to your
mighty deeds? Please let me cross
over and see that good land that
is beyond the Jordan, those good mountains, and Lebanon.” But Yahweh said to Moses, “Enough. Speak to me no more about this matter. Go up to the
top of Pisgah and lift up your
eyes to the west and to the north
and to the south and to the east, and see it with your eyes, for you shall
not cross over this Jordan.”
Take in account what Moses said to Yahweh.
“for
what god is there in heaven or on earth who can act according to your works,
and according to your mighty deeds?”
If Jesus was with God from the beginning as found
in the gospel of John, why then didn’t Yahweh declare it to Moses? Was this not the
best time to announce and make mention of his son who is also God with him as
John claimed? Why was Yahweh silent? This goes to show Yahweh had no son with
him from the beginning of time. John 1:1 was nothing but a lie.
In fact the verse
carries on showing the anger Yahweh had towards Moses after he allegedy
disobeyed God.
“But Yahweh said to Moses,
“Enough. Speak to me no
more about this matter. Go up to the
top of Pisgah and lift up your
eyes to the west and to the north
and to the south and to the east, and see it with your eyes, for you shall
not cross over this Jordan.”
This would have ideally been the moment when Yahweh could have revealed
his “son Jesus” to Moses. Yahweh had the chance to show Moses his “son” would
not disobey him and complete his work. It’s
clear from the text, Yahweh had no knowledge of another God or son who was side
by side with him. John 1:1 is nothing but a fraud and deceptive saying which has
no support from the Hebrew Bible.
