Introduction
As a spiritual journey evolves, one's understanding of the Holy Spirit's communication style may transform. This narrative explores my experiences with the Holy Spirit and the guidance I received through diligent study and prayer.
During my time translating the Bible from Hebrew to English, I often found myself grappling with complex verses, pondering their meanings, and seeking deeper insights. The process evolved from a challenging and time-consuming task to a joyful and enlightening journey, as I learned to listen to the Holy Spirit through my spiritual mind.
From Struggle to Ease
When I first embarked on translating Bible verses from Hebrew to English, the process was arduous. I would often get stuck on a verse, wrestling with the meanings and searching for the most apt words to convey the text. This would sometimes take days to resolve, forcing me to rest and rejuvenate before tackling the next challenge.
Over time, however, the process became more fluid. Words would emerge naturally from my thoughts, and I found myself correcting and refining each sentence with greater ease. What used to take a week per page now flowed smoothly in a fraction of that time. This improvement was due to a deepening understanding of Hebrew grammar and the Holy Spirit's unwavering guidance.
The Spiritual Mind and Nighttime Verses
I began to communicate with the Holy Spirit through my spiritual mind, without needing to kneel or pray with intense concentration. Verses often came to me at night, alerting me to areas that required more attention. These insights were not always explicit, but they guided me in my continued study and reflection.
For example, consider John 1:1, which in Hebrew reads:
?????? ??? ??? ????shima
Translating this into English requires careful consideration. The verse speaks of the origin and existence of the words of God, emphasizing the creative power of speech. In essence, it conveys that at the beginning of time, God's word brought about existence.
John 1:1: In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
Colossians 1:15: He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation.
John 1:4: In Him was life, and the life was the light of men.
Proverbs 8: When the LORD created my Spirit, My understanding, He made me a skillful craftsman.
Genesis 1:3: And God said, "Let there be light," and there was light.
These verses interlock to provide a holistic view of how the Holy Spirit works and the interconnectedness of creation. They highlight the idea that Jesus, as the embodiment of the divine Word, brought light into the world, both in a spiritual and physical sense. The earthly creation was a reflection of the divine realm, where God's light illuminated the world from the highest celestial bodies down to the encompassing universe.
The Conclusion: Making Sense of the Puzzles
Although no Christian scholars or church leaders had ever explained the verses in this manner, I found that the truth of the matter was evident when I translated the Bible back to its original language. The Holy Spirit's guidance reinforced the importance of understanding the text in its historical and cultural context. His message was clear: if I truly wanted to know who He was, I needed to learn Hebrew.
Following the instructions from the Holy Spirit, I delved into the Torah, Tanakh, and the Brit Ch Deliver, and the Hebrew New Testament. This process revealed a unified narrative that harmonized with the oral Haggadah, providing a comprehensive framework for understanding the Bible.
The Holy Spirit's guidance provided a logical and logical sound-minded understanding of the Scriptures. It was not based on blind faith but on a deep, personal connection with the divine. This journey brought me closer to the truth, and the insights gained were invaluable and priceless.
Conclusion
Through diligent study, prayer, and a deep connection with the Holy Spirit, I have been able to gain a profound understanding of Biblical verses. The insights I gained through Hebrew translation and the guidance of the Holy Spirit have enriched my spiritual journey and provided a clearer picture of the divine message. This approach, rooted in logical and common sense, has opened up new avenues of understanding the Bible and its profound significance.
