As I translated the Old Testament Scriptures from the Ancient Aramaic language, I discovered that these stories were the spiritual evolution for those people who would be transformed by the coming of Eashoa Msheekha (Jesus the Messiah) to the world two thousand years ago. Each book of the Scriptures was a prophetic journey for the followers of Eashoa Msheekha. When Eashoa came to the world, He gathered around him many disciples, out of which he chose twelve to be his torch carriers. One of the twelve was Judah of Iscariot who would betray him. This betrayal was anticipated, because Eashoa understood the nature of the human being when dealing with money: Judah of Iscariot was the purse keeper of the disciples and he took care of their finances. This led to his taking matters into his own hands as he made preparations for the survival of the group after Eashoa was going to be seized and killed - as Eashoa had told them that this would befall him - as it was prophesied. This practical sense of those who believe in money as the basis for survival, is what brings about most the betrayals of what is good in this world. In every group there are those individuals who will be swayed by evil; Satan assumed the role of misleading those people who love fame, money and power more than their creator, (who is known in the Aramaic language as Allaha and in English as God.) The religious establishment today is no different than the high priests, scribes and elders of the Hebrew people at the time of Eashoa. They were more devoted to their financial positions than the Scriptures. That is why the religious leadership with the power in Jerusalem, and protected by the Roman Empire, did not recognize Eashoa as the Messiah. They were possessed by Satan and did not interpret the Scriptures according to the Ancient Aramaic language; they chose instead other versions of the Scriptures as kept by the Essenes and other sects, such as the Pharisees and the Sadducees. And following the crucifixion of Eashoa they distorted the Scriptures some more to obliterate the prophecies that led directly to the recognition of Eashoa as the Messiah. In the same way today, the religious establishments have chosen other versions of the Bible, those that are not translated from the Ancient Aramaic language, the language that Eashoa Msheekha spoke, wrote, and read the Scriptures from. The Western Bibles, translated from the Hebrew Old Testament, the Greek Septuagint, and the Latin Vulgate (together with all their translations) are not consistent with the Ancient Aramaic Scriptures of the Ancient Church of the East. This is why I'm translating the original Scriptures, those that Eashoa Msheekha (Jesus the Messiah) read from when He walked the earth. You can read for the first time the real stories of the Old Testament and how they led to a clear identification of the Messiah who came two thousand years ago. You can now grow through the spiritual evolution of the Old Testament stories as they prophesied about the coming of Maran Eashoa Msheekha (our Lord Jesus the Messiah.)
