abominations from between his teeth: but he that remaineth, even he, shall be for our God, and he shall be as a governor in Yudah, and Ekron

"to do iniquity."

GhWH Twist:

To be twisted in ones actions iniquity, perverse, pervert, amiss, turn, crooked, bow, trouble, wicked, wrong|

This verb appears in the Bible 17 times. In Arabic this verb appears with

the meaning "to bend" or "to deviate from the way." `

Awah is often used as a synonym of chata', "to sin,"

Tehillim 106:6

"We have sinned [chata' with our fathers, we have committed iniquity

[`awah], we have done wickedly [rasha`]."

awon (noun)

(H5771),

To break the covering tissue (hymen), being a representative of a woman,(virgin). Notice the 2 sticks representing the tree of life and

the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. when HaShâwtan

committed iniquity with chawwah has a mortal ( man) he caused the light covering to become darkness

Gen 2:9

And out of the ground made YawHH to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food; the tree of life also in the midst of the

garden, and the tree of knowledge of good and evil.

GhW-WN

Looking at the last letter,

Guilt: The result of twisted actions.

iniquity, punishment, fault, mischief, sin "iniquity; guilt; punishment."

This noun, which appears 231 times in the Old Covenant, is limited to

Hebrew and biblical Aramaic. The prophetic and poetic books employ

`awon with frequency. The Pentateuch as a whole employs the word

about 50 times. In addition to these, the historical books infrequently

use `awon. The first use of `awon comes from Qayin's lips, where the

word takes the special meaning of "punishment": "And Qayin said unto

the Lord, My punishment is greater than I can bear"

Qayin lied has his father did HaShâwtan, so deceit came into the world

Bber 4:13

And Qayin said to YâwHu (YHWH), “My punishment is too great to

bear!

The most basic meaning of `awon is "iniquity." The word signifies an

offense, intentional or not, against YâwHu (YHWH)'s law. This meaning

is also most basic to the word chatta't, "sin," in the Old Covenant, and

for this reason the words chatta't and `awon are virtually synonymous;

Qayin really did enjoy YâwHu (YHWH) presence.

He understands that there is safety there, yet still does not take

responsibility. Mosheh highlights the common belief that a deity is tied

to a particular location in order to motivate the people he was leading to

want to be connected to the Land to which he was leading them. While

YâwHu (YHWH) is not limited to one place, this is the one He really

focuses on. So this is propaganda of a sort, but not for the purpose of

fooling them, but so that he can fix them. Who would kill Qayin? If we

read from the perspective of a shepherd, it would be other shepherds

whose wells he might have to get water from, or who might fight him

for the one he dug, for the most basic key to protecting sheep is

guarding the water supply, as we will see in the stories of Tzipporah,

Ribqah, and Rakhel, who were all shepherdesses. Somehow Qayin

would find a wife and potential murderers out there. Mosheh may have

left these gaps in his story for the purpose of showing us that the

emphasis was to be on what we are meant to learn from it: principles

that make us decent people. If we kill one another over whether or not

it is literal, we have missed the point. The Torah is a compendium of

120 years of the lessons Mosheh found most useful in bringing order,

and he presents them in a palatable way—not in a rulebook fashion, but

through stories that would be enjoyable to tell one’s children around the

campfire.

YashaYahuw 6:7

"Lo, this [the live coal] hath touched thy [Isaiah's] lips; and thine

iniquity [`awon] is taken away, and thy sin [chatta't] purged"

"Iniquity"

as an offense to YâwHu (YHWH) Sacredness is punishable. The

individual is warned that YâwHu punishes man's transgression:

YirmYâ’huw 31:30

"But everyone shall die for his own iniquity: every man that eateth the

sour grape, his teeth shall be set on edge

There is also a collective sense in that the one is responsible for the

many:

Shemot 20:5

you do not bow down to them nor serve them. For I, YâwHu (YHWH)

your YâwHH am a jealous Al (eph), visiting the crookedness of the

fathers on the children to the third and fourth generations of those who

hate Me

Serve: work done on another's behalf that one is not paid to perform.

I.e., YâwHu (YHWH) bride is not to go clean her old boyfriend's house

for free! This term for "jealous" is never used of men in Scripture; we

can never attain to this type of jealousy, because it implies a deserving

purer than anything we can ever achieve. It means He wants to be our

desired. Hirsch: "Demanding His exclusive rights". On their children: the

Aramaic renders it "rebellious children", and adds "when the children

follow their fathers in sinning", to avoid the idea that a son or daughter

who repented of his parents' ways would still be punished. This agrees

with Yirmeyahu 31:29ff. Holding us guilty until something is done to

rectify it is a blessing since He does not let anyone go on thinking they

got away with doing wrong without consequences. Third or fourth: Not

that He is bound to a minimum of three or a maximum of four; the

emphasis is on the fact that the things we give most attention to will

filter down to our children. What we fear is what they will learn to fear

until this cycle is broken. Who hate Me: One might think this does not

apply to him because he loves YâwHu (YHWH), but the test YâwHuaH

(YHWHSWA) gave as to whether we actually do love Him is whether we

keep His commandments (Yochanan 14:15; 15:7-10), and that is exactly

how verse 6 defines it. In Scripture, hate does not have to have

anything to do with feelings of malice; it has to do with our actions: do

we actually walk in our own priorities rather than His? If we make idols

with our hands or minds, we hate Him, no matter what we say or how

we feel. Any sin is missing the target, but hate as defined in Hebrew is

missing the target without even noticing or giving weight to the fact that

there is a target at all. That is why we are to hide His word in our

hearts--so it speaks to us when we start to carve out idols through what

we fear.

No generation, however, was to think that it bore YâwHu (YHWH)

judgment for the "iniquity" of another generation:

Eze 18:19-20

"Yet say ye, Why? doth not the son bear the iniquity of the father?

When the son hath done that which is lawful and right, and hath kept all

my statutes, and hath done them, he shall surely live. The soul that

sinneth, it shall die. The son shall not bear the iniquity of the father,

neither shall the father bear the iniquity of the son: the righteousness of

the righteous shall be upon him, and the wickedness of the wicked shall

be upon him"

He cannot rest on his father’s laurels, as was seen in the cases of

Aharon (Lev. 10), Eli (1 Shmu’al 2:22ff), and David (1 Kings 1:5-6), for a

few examples.

I’shra’al (YâhuwtHâ’H) went into captivity for the sin of their fathers and

for their own sins:

Eze 39:23

"And the heathen shall know that the house of I’shra’al (YâhuwtHâ’H)

went into captivity for their iniquity; because they trespassed against

me, therefore hid I my face from them, and gave them into the hand of

their enemies: so fell they all by the sword"

Serious as "iniquity" is in the covenantal relationship between YâwHH

and His people, the people are reminded that He is a living YâwHu

(YHWH) who willingly forgives "iniquity":

Shemot 34:7

"Keeping mercy for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and

sin, and that will by no means clear the guilty; visiting the iniquity of the

fathers upon the children, and upon the children's children, unto the

third and to the fourth generation

Faithfully guarding: Aram., "maintaining". Not entirely unpunished:

Some had been slain for the golden calf incident, while others were

spared. Lifting off: carrying away; figuratively, forgiving. There are

three categories in which we need His forgiveness. Twistedness is

bending the truth or bending His words to fit our preferences or a

different agenda than His. Transgression is revolting, rebelling,

trespassing across a line, or simply breaking away from the community

for our own selfish purposes. Sin simply means “missing the target” or

“wandering off track” (intentionally or not)--not living up to the standard

He sets for us, or changing some details so that His building is no longer

built according to the plans He provided. The first two—which are

essentially moving the target (i.e., trading the Torah for morality,

changing what it is that we are shooting for) and ignoring the target—

are far worse than sin, which implies that one respects the true target

and is trying to hit it, but does not fully succeed. His forgiveness is not

automatic, but has the prerequisites of our confession, asking for His

pardon, and turning away from the same practices. He has not declared

rebellion to be a clean thing just because He decided to forego the

punishment a few times, in His patience. He looked on His people’s

errors as we would a small child’s—needing correction for sure, but

cognizant of the fact that they do not know as much as we do.

Forgiveness is a precious thing not to be had by those who will do

nothing with it. From this process we are meant to learn to stay away

from the problem! While, like Hoshea, for the sake of her children He

paid the debts His straying bride had run up while she cheated on Him,

He is not preventing her from getting back into debt again. He takes

her back, but expects her to be a decent mother, changing her priorities

so she will become the kind of person that such things do not stick to

anymore. If she does not exercise this discipline, her children will end

up with the same problems she had. What you treat is clean is what

your children will think “clean” is.

YâwHu (YHWH) expects confession of sin:

Tehillim 34:2

"I acknowledged my sin unto thee, and mine iniquity have I not hid. I

said, I will confess my transgressions to YâwHu; and thou forgavest the

iniquity of my sin",

Tehillim 51:2

and a trusting, believing heart which expresses the humble prayer:

"Wash me thoroughly from mine iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin"

YashaYahuw 53

teaches that YâwHu (YHWH)

put upon

YâwHuaH(YHWHSWA) HaMeshiakh

our

"iniquities" YashaYahuw 53:6

We all, like sheep, went astray, each one of us has turned to his own

way. And YawHu (YHWH) has laid on Him the crookedness of us all.

that He having been bruised for our "iniquities"

YashaYahuw 53:5

But He was pierced for our transgressions, He was crushed for our

crookednesses. The chastisement for our peace was upon Him, and by

His stripes we are healed

Rebellious acts: or transgressions, going "out of bounds". Aramaic, "He

will [re]build the sanctuary which was profaned for our sins, handed

over for our iniquities." What iniquities? Specifically, those by which we

violated the first covenant, rendering its renewal necessary. The

context (ch. 52) is that of the restoration of I’shra’al (YâhuwtHâ’H).

Though it has many other "side benefits", at the most basic level, what

constitutes our salvation is a return to the covenant and the rebuilding

of a dwelling place for YHWH in Yerushalayim. His bruises (detailed in

Yochanan 19): specifically in relation to the sins of the royal line of

David (Tehillim 89:30ff), in order to restore that covenant, which does

benefit all of I’shra’al (YâhuwtHâ’H).

might justify those who believe on Him:

YashaYahuw 53:11

"He shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied: by his

knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many; for he shall bear

their iniquities"

travail: wearisome labour, trouble, grief. Fully satisfied: or fulfilled. For

the many: the same term refers to the people of I’shra’al (YâhuwtHâ’H)

in Danial 9:27, and indeed YâwHuaH (YHWHSWA) would "justify" or

"bring righteous-ness" for the many, setting them straight again and

making them what they were meant to be.

The usage of `awon includes the whole area of sin, judgment, and

"punishment" for sin. The Old Covenant teaches that YâwHu (YHWH)

forgiveness of "iniquity" extends to the actual sin, the guilt of sin,

YâwHu (YHWH) judgment upon that sin, and YâwHu (YHWH)

punishment of the sin.

Tehillim 32:2

"Blessed is the man unto whom the YâwHu (YHWH) imputeth not

iniquity, and in whose Rúakh (spirit) there is no guile" (deceit)

In the Septuagint the word has the following renderings

: adikia

("wrongdoing; unrighteousness; wickedness");

hamartia

("sin; error");

anomia

("lawlessness").

In the English versions the translation "iniquity" is fairly uniform. The

RSV and NIV give at a few places the more specialized rendering "guilt"

or the more general translation "sin."

'Awen

(H205),

"iniquity; misfortune."

This noun is derived from a root meaning "to be strong," found only in

the Northwest Semitic languages. The word occurs about 80 times and

almost exclusively in poetic-prophetic language. The usage is particularly

frequent in the poetical books.

YashaYahuw use stands out among the prophets. The first occurrence

is in

Num 23:21

He has not looked upon wickedness (iniquity) in Ya‛aqoḇ, nor has He

seen trouble in Y’Ishra’al. YâwHu his YâwHH is with him, and the shout

of a Sovereign is in him.

Not taken into consideration: Aramaic, carefully scrutinized and not

found. Crookedness: Hirsch, "misuse of power". Perceived I’shra’al

(YâhuwtHâ’H) as worn out: Some say exactly the opposite, citing the

Holocaust as evidence that YHWH is fed up with I’shra’al (YâhuwtHâ’H).

And in this context, He has just brought judgment after judgment for

the rebellion after rebellion and complaint after complaint that they had

brought against Moshe and ultimately against YHWH Himself.

Sometimes He would not even dwell with them because of the extent of

the trouble in the camp. There was plenty of wickedness to see. But

even if one has to beat his family into subjection, he would still come to

their Defense without hesitation in the face of any outside threat,

especially from the "accuser of the brethren". Such problems are none

of Bilaam’s business; YHWH will not present I’shra’al (YâhuwtHâ’H) to

outsiders as anything but righteous. He chooses to see the potential in

us. He still sees us as worth the effort to at least give us a shot at being

useful. I’shra’al (YâhuwtHâ’H) is blessed by YHWH, which means He

bends His “knees” to get down to our level, like a father to his children,

and He does not see this as too much trouble. As we mature, of course

we need to make sure we are blessing Him in return. But while He may

use an outsider to discipline us, He forbids them from bringing a curse

with it. The key is the final phrase: The word for "battle-cry" is the

same term used for the trumpet blast on Yom T'ruah (Rosh Hashanah),

which woke them up. Yom Teruah is when the king who makes it

possible for us to be righteous will return. This makes the difference.

The festival just after Yom Teruah is Yom Kippur, on which YHWH

covers our sins over. It is not that the sins do not exist, but they are

walking in forgiveness because of that season--because Aharon has

brought the bull, rams, and goats. The Church has clued in on this, but

is selling something they do not own. It was already being given away,

but people did not know where to look, because they were taken to

Rome’s seven hills for their perspective, and therefore give the wrong

impression of what YâwHuaH (YHWHSWA)’s life was all about. First

Yochanan warns us to never say we are without sin, yet invites us to

enjoy the full rights of our calling as Sons of Elohim. After so many

years of correction, I’shra’al (YâhuwtHâ’H) is finally getting to the place

where we are useful to Him.

The meaning of "misfortune" comes to expression in the devices of the

wicked against the righteous. The psalmist expected "misfortune" to

come upon him

Tehillim 41:6.

"And if he come to see me, he speaketh vanity: his heart gathereth

iniquity to itself; when he goeth abroad, he telleth it"

'Awen in this sense is synonymous with 'ed, "disaster"

Iyob 18:12

His strength shall be hunger bitten, and destruction shall be ready at his

side.

In a real sense 'Awen is part of human existence, and as such the word

is identical with `amal, "toil," as in

Tehillim 90:10

"The days of our years are threescore years and ten; and if by reason of

strength they be fourscore years, yet is their strength labour and

sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away."

'Awen in a deeper sense characterizes the way of life of those who are

without YâwHu (YHWH):

YashaYahuw 32:6

"For the vile person will speak villainy, and his heart will work iniquity, to

practice hypocrisy, and to utter error against the Lord, to make empty

the soul of the hungry, and he will cause the drink of the thirsty to fail"

Foolishness: senselessness, disgrace, profane things. Soul: or

appetite. If we twist YHWH's words, though we appear to be feeding

someone, it is just "empty calories".

The being of man is corrupted by "iniquity." Though all of mankind is

subject to 'Awen ("toil"), there are those who delight in causing

difficulties and "misfortunes" for others by scheming, lying, and acting

deceptively. The psalmist puts internalized wickedness this way:

"Behold, he travaileth with iniquity, and hath conceived mischief, and

brought forth falsehood"

Tehillim 7:14

Behold, he travails with iniquity and has conceived of his own work and

brought forth falsehood.

Iyob 15:35

They conceive pain and bring forth iniquity, and their belly meditates

deceit.

Those who are involved in the ways of darkness are the "workers of

iniquity," the doers of evil or the creators of "misfortune" and disaster.

Synonyms for 'Awen with this sense are ra`, "evil," and rasha`,

"wicked," opposed to "righteousness" and "justice." They seek the

downfall of the just

Tehillim 141:9

Keep me from the hands of the snare which they have laid for me, and

from the snares of the workers of iniquity.

Between

Tehillim5:5 and Tehillim141:9

there are as many as 16 references to the workers of evil

Tehillim 5:5

"The foolish shall not stand in thy sight: thou hatest all workers of

iniquity

In the context of Tehillim 5, the evil spoken of is falsehood, bloodshed,

and deceit

Tehillim 5:6

Thou destroyest them that speak falsehood; YâwHu abhorreth the man

of blood and of deceit.

The qualitative aspect of the word comes to the best expression in the

verbs with 'Awen. The wicked work, speak, beget, think, devise, gather,

reap, and plow 'Awen, and it is revealed ("comes forth") by the

misfortune that comes upon the righteous. Ultimately when I’shra’al

(YâhuwtHâ’H)'s religious festivals

YashaYahuw 1:13

"`Do not bring any more empty tribute-offerings. And incense--it's

disgusting to Me! [New] moon, Sabbath, [and] summoning of

assemblies, I cannot endure! Even the festival assembly is a waste of

breath.

He is so fed up with their worshipping outwardly but without “truth in

the inward parts” that He simply says, "Stop profaning My extra-special

days!" YehuwDah is mixing the worship of YHWH with paganism. Sure,

He asked for these things at one time, but now He does not want them

because of their attitude. They should be grateful that they are even

allowed to bring something to His house, but not even want to be

around them. Because their heart is not inclined to Him, they are doing

little more than murdering animals.

and legislation

YashaYahuw 10:

were affected by their apostate way of life, they had reduced

themselves to the Gentile practices and way of life. The prophetic hope

lay in the period after the purification of I’shra’al (YâhuwtHâ’H), when

the messianic king would introduce a period of justice and righteousness

YashaYahuw 32

and the evil men would be shown up for their folly and ungodliness.

The Septuagint has several translations:

anomia ("lawlessness");

kopos

("work; labour; toil");

mataios

("empty; fruitless; useless; powerless");

poneria

("wickedness; maliciousness; sinfulness");

adikia

("unrighteousness; wickedness; injustice").

The KJV has these translations:

"iniquity; vanity; wickedness."
