YHWH is the specific reference to the Most High. God, as a word, Heiser is showing us could be different Hebrew words and even those Hebrew words have a very general meaning, such as Elohim.
This man changed my life. I’ve mourned his death since his going to God. I pray for his family, such a loss. I bet he’s had some amazing conversations with Melchizedek , Paul, David, etc.
Tears have come to my eyes over our loss of him. When I learned, it was months afterward and it took me by complete surprise; though I knew about his diagnosis, somehow I had just imagined he'd pull through. At least it's temporary, our loss of him.
God has no favorites. He treats all the same. Some people have more knowledge but that does not impress God. It can please Him but He has no favorites in heaven. He is the Almighty God the Creator of All.
I just learned of him today. Ive been asking God to teach me more about the supernatural realm and now my TH-cam is flooded with his work. Praise God and may he rest in peace with the Lord. ❤ Time to learn!!
I've studied everything Chuck Missler, Zen Garcia, David Carico, Jonathan kleck, Richard montbleau, and sooo.... many others. Yet there's such a down to earth and today's understanding honest approach to studying the word!!! Great work and it's such a pleasant blessing to experience these teachings!!! If you ever see this Michael Thank you so very much.
Every time I listen or read one of his books I am more and more excited about my Bible. I am ever thankful he listened to God and chose to step out and share with us common folk the things scholars already knew. I will always be thankful for his boldness and courage. Enjoy your time with all of God's family in the mountain of the Lord, Dr. Heiser.
Dr Mike has arrived in Heaven. I bet he’s not resting in peace. The Lord greeted The Good Dr and said let’s roll we’ve got a few things to accomplish. All kidding aside he changed the way I studied and viewed Gods Word. I’m forever grateful to him and someday I will see him in heaven. His family will remain in my prayers. My heart hurts for them.

This is amazing that I have found this. So timely since Last night and this morning I was studying about the holy ones because Peter quoted psalms. 16:8-11 At acts 2: 27. I even ended up checking references that included the one mentioned here in Daniel.4. I praise Yahweh because he cares so much that I understand these things.
I just discovered this intelligent person and wish I had known about him before. I love the way he explains things with knowledge and references the Bible scriptures. He has a peaceful calmness about him.

"Religion": a noun of action was derived by Cicero from relegere "go through again" (in reading or in thought), from re- "again" (see re-) + legere "read". It is human nature to believe in something. We will follow either "Good Religion" or "Bad Religion". It's your choice, and even if you don't choose, you have made a choice. "Wordly" Religion will lead to destruction and death. Belief in Jesus Christ as your person savior will lead to Eternal Life.
So thankful that I found Dr. Heiser, so many pieces meshed perfectly together after hearing his teachings, and I can't find any of them that are unbiblical.
I found Heiser on youtube late one night talking about ufo's and the bible. I thought this will be fun. Well, his teaching opened up so much to me. He was my youtube teacher through a terrible time in my life. I'm sorry he is gone, although he lives. He has left us so much in his youtube teachings, books, etc. Thank you, Dr. Heiser!
I think I have always intuitively known the little g’s were spirits. I never realized people were thrown off by this or that it was ever a mystery to someone. The spirit world is very thick and populated. Great seminar… Thank you
Praise The Lord. His spirit in me recognizes the truth of DR. HEISER'S LECTURE. Thank you Dr. Mike. (starting with #1 and going thru these 3 videos again .....yes. On you tube. 😁
@@AWKNGInc Heiser was a false teacher on the unseen realm and this divine council theory he came up with. After reading this post if readers would share thoughts of what Moses meant by "Many Generations". I tried posting this kind of information on Mike's channel multiple times and he or his team never responded. Genesis 6 & Deuteronomy 32 Explained sons of God Heiser is correct when he said it should be sons of God in Deuteronomy 32:8. Heiser was a word guy the Hebrew would be >>>>(בני האלהים, bənê hāʼĕlōhîm>"Remember the days of old". Since Mose wrote Torah, the first 5 books of the Bible, which are Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers and Deuteronomy. These "days of old" that Moses mention in verse 7, what Moses is doing is taking the reader back to the Pre-flood time period. Taking Verse 7 (Remember the Days of Old; consider the years of Many Generations;) Can 100% be applied as "sons of God" in Deuteronomy 32:8 as well as Genesis 5 and sons of God in Genesis 6. All makes sense and fits with the Author of Torah who is Moses. The argument is, is that there No Abrahamic covenant yet, that is 100% true when a person applies verse 7 (Remember the Days of Old; consider the years of Many Generations;) it is more clear and plain to see who the "sons of God" are in both Deuteronomy 32:8 and Genesis 6 Nations are named after a father in scripture. Abraham is considered a father. Jacob (Israel) is the father of the twelve tribes. Explaining sons of Israel. Exodus 4:22 says "Then you shall say to Pharaoh, ‘Thus says the Lord, Israel is my firstborn son". God is speaking to Moses in this passage, also this is another book of Torah. The passage of scripture of the name change for Jacob to Israel Genesis 32:28 "Then he said, “Your name shall no longer be called Jacob, but Israel, for you have striven with God and with men, and have prevailed.” Israel (Jacob) had 12 sons which would be 12 tirbes with Many Generations. Getting back to Exodus 4:22 says "Then you shall say to Pharaoh, ‘Thus says the Lord, Israel is my firstborn son". Since Israel was the "firstborn son" to the Lord God, which would means Israel/Jacobs offspring would be "sons of God" or also to say "children of Israel" The twelve tribes are as follows: Reuben, Simeon, Judah, Issachar, Zebulun, Benjamin, Dan, Naphtali, Gad, Asher, Ephraim and Manasseh. See how many Generations came from Isreal (Jacob) Even the following verses of how the "Text" allows for "sons of Israel" . Deuteromony 32:9 'But the Lord's portion is his people, Jacob his allotted heritage. 10 “He found him in a desert land, and in the howling waste of the wilderness; he encircled him, he cared for him" Clearly verses 9 and 10 is talking about the "sons of Israel" which would be Jacob's 12 sons/tribes, key words in the text Jacob alotted heritage (Israel). "The Lord's portion is his people" Israel was the Lord's Chosen people The 12 tribes were the ones wondering in the desert land which verse 10 is talking about. That is WHY there is such a debate in the text, both sons of God and children of Israel had "Many Generations". Heiser's divine council of super angels Can Not or Do Not have "Many Generations" Even looking at Psalm 82:6 "I said, “You are gods, sons of the Most High, all of you;" The word "sons" is used in the Plurality, which would be referencing that the "sons" are human pretaining to the 12 tribes of Israel (Jacob's sons). The word "gods" Jesus answers that in John 10 also human. Heiser taught gods/elohim and sons are non human, Psalm 82 is his foundation for his false divine council of super angels. These 12 tirbes (Israel) had the Law of God to govern the people. Elders/Rulers/Judges (gods/elohim/divine council) were part of that governing authority. Nothing angelic (Nonhuman) could govern the people. So naturally Humans are getting scolded in Psalm 82, not anything Nonhuman like angels or spirit beings of a divine council. The "divine council" are the Chosen people of God who given the Law of God. Also had the True Prophets of God. The proper way of interpreting the scripture of Deuteronomy 32:8 whether it should be sons of God or children of Israel? Well which came first the Patriarchs/sons of God, of Genesis 5 and 6 or 12 tribes of Israel, of course it would be the Patriarchs/sons of God which are listed in Genesis 5 with "Many Generations" the longivity of life spans that they would have seen "Many Generations" and did lived old ages. This is ALL in Context, Context Is King!! Have to remember when scripture was first written there were no chapter breaks or verse breaks, that was added later in English Translations of scipture. Small summary, Moses tells us who the sons of God are with Remember the Days of Old; consider the years of Many Generations in verse 7 would be Applied to sons of God. Deuteronomy 32 7 Remember the days of old; consider the years of many generations; ask your father, and he will show you, your elders, and they will tell you. 8 When the Most High gave to the nations their inheritance, when he divided mankind, he fixed the borders of the peoples according to the number of the sons of God. Clearly this is NOT about a divine council of super angels. This Heiser guy did NOT understand verse 7 (Remember the Days of Old; consider the years of Many Generations;) or Context applied with proper Hermeneutics. He WAS a Blind and False Teacher of scripture when it came to Application, but he was correct in the Translaton of the words sons of God in Deuteronomy 32:8.
I only discovered Dr Heiser last week as I was browsing through TH-cam. I was immediately interested in his teaching on the “Elohim”, hoping he wasn’t playing Joseph Smith and his multiple gods doctrine. I purchased his two last books and look forward to reading them and comparing it all with Scripture. I will probably never be so privileged as to discuss anything personally with Dr Heiser, but I would exhort him strongly to clearly and frequently state that all the “lesser elohim” are CREATED BEINGS by The Most High God! Otherwise, people may think he’s become a polytheist of some sort! God bless all who study God’s Word and preach Christ and Him crucified 🙏🏻❤️
After 65 years I found Right Division; Their willingness to explore all the Bible. Not all of them but a great many. Because of them I was open to listen to you.
Dr Heiser, you are an inspiration for me! Thank you for everything you make, from your books, to your podcast, to these classes. God bless you and your family, and may he heal you. Blessings from Argentina!
I was always discouraged from angelology because it was either discouraged because of lack of practicality or because it was conflated with the worship of angels, but I can see clearly that its neither of those things. It can actually show us who we are in the supernatural family of God. Now, I probably wouldn't camp here for very long like our brother Dr. Heiser, but I will certainly be here long enough to understand what it means.
I'm of that mind. Of course we can only seek truth. As conscious beings our true speech. There is some very interesting ideas that we can use to interpret in the relevant science in consciousness, physics, and quantum superposition/collapse. Because the fools of the earth are trying to understand what they are.
@@negro722 forgive me for using the wrong words. Jesus is enough. My understanding is transformed I suppose. And I am guessing you thought you were leaving me an encouraging word or did you purposely try to condemn me?
Dr. Heiser, thank you for a clear, entertaining and concise explanation of the use of the term "gods." Non-believers have pointed to the use of "gods" attempting to undermine a belief in the Godhead. Now I have a fuller explanation of the multiple uses of the Hebrew term "Elohim" meaning supernational being, good, bad or that of a deceased person. Thank you.
Funny! What was an epiphany to Michael was fun to hear. I have to go back decades to find when this knowledge became part of mine as a young Bible student. We each have different growth rings. Just a decade or less ago, I had one such moment on another subject.
I listen to several ministers/teachers/scholars on TH-cam and I came across Michael Heiser several weeks ago. I couldn’t get enough and listened to one after the other. Then, during one of his lectures, he said that Adam and Eve could of died before they sinned because God said everything He created was good, not perfect. He said they could of drowned or got a cut and bleed to death. Two things disturbed me when I heard this. 1. They were created in God’s image. God is perfect. 2. Most importantly, Romans 6:23 says “For the wages of sin is death.” If sin brings death, how could they have died before they sinned? There was no sin until they sinned. If someone has an answer for this, please comment. I’ve learned a lot from this man but I also let the Holy Spirit be my discernment for God’s truth. I don’t make decisions based on my thoughts or someone else’s teachings. If I feel disturbed by something that I believe the Holy Spirit is showing me, I pray, then research others who I believe teach in truth based on Scripture. No offense meant towards Mike. This is my OPINION, just as he expressed his. All glory to God!
Here's the way I view the Lord God allowing His council to make suggestions. I love my sons, I want to teach them things in this life. And, I want to know that they know, how to think for themselves and to minimize mistakes when they act. So, when we're working on or planning something. Even though they're young, I will ask their opinion on what they would do, or what they think I should do. Even though I know what has too be done and the best way we should do it. I want their contribution, so if need be, I can teach them why that might not be the best bet. And sometimes, do something how they suggest, if just to show by example why it will not be the right answer, or show them that in fact they were right. But, no matter what, I'm there with them as their "safety net". I just want them involved and growing. I believe that, God, being our Heavenly Father and Creator is where we get these types of attributes. It's not hard to believe that He does this with His Heavenly spiritual family, the ones that are faithful to Him.
Dr Michael Heiser: My beginning as a child of YHWY was confusing.... we were military and at 2 yrs old polio struck. My parents were overwhelmed; I was admitted to Wm Beaumont Hospital then when stable placed with wonderful Catholic sisters. I lived with them for a few years until we transferred to Wisconsin. I attended a private school for a year then we moved to eastern Washington state for 3 years. I wore leg braces until 9 years old. I was always surrounded by the attentive sister Nuns and the Church and Scripture. Mass everyday at 11am and HOLY Scripture. Alcohol was often in the picture during the military life in the 1950s -1960s.... Somehow I knew the God was watching over me, the sisters were a constant stable influence. I remember telling the sisters that my parents didn't follow ANY of the Commandments. They said Father God loved me so and with a heart for GOD I would help others....
PS: I love hymns of all kinds but especially loved a Gospel song 🎵 "Oh Happy Day"....years later while experiencing many months of decimated NOLA the song 🎵 was uplifting by numerous people; I enjoyed Mahalia Jackson and other Christian ✝️ singers.
The more I learn about the Bible the more amazed I become. So much information is packed in like riddles and mysteries that need solving and the dark ages stripped the Western world of so much understanding of the ancient world, yet the prophesies are bringing it all back to us. One question that is so often asked by students of the Bible is when did the fall happen and I have never felt I had an adequate answer nor did I ever hear one until Heiser opened up the word for me and showed me the progression. YHWH and Yeshua mean so much more to me now. Their love and commitment to mankind is so much richer than I ever imagined even though I am born again and have tasted the goodness of the Lord by the indwelling Spirit. My Heiser's work be embraced by believers worldwide.
This was so fabulous I can’t even describe how excited and thrilled my spirit is watching this because God set the foundation s a few years ago for me to understand this ❤❤❤❤❤❤ just wow wow wow thank u Jesus ❤
I would have liked to have met in person or online Michael. I submit that though I'm an old fundamentalist extremist whose main concerns are basic Bible truths vis a vis our salvation, the condition of the dead, God and Christ and such - that Michael's insights on the Hebrew/Aramaic/Greek texts have a lot of to teach me. If that means a 100% agreement is another issue.😊
There are many ACADEMICS but not many FATHERS. a father describes to the KIDS what the academics have discovered.... SO OUR LITTLE FAMILY CAN STAY SAFE IN THE "EDENIC PRESENCE" amidst our ordinary lives!!💥🕊️🌷🤸🌱
Isaiah 57:1 “The righteous perisheth, and no man layeth it to heart: and merciful men are taken away, none considering that the righteous is taken away from the evil to come.”
What will really get you is the fact that the Bible is not the first time God gave man this information. Then when you realize that this book tells us of the supernatural abilities that we have but don't use. You first have to believe that you have them. You then cannot fear them, nor what they may reveal, which you also have power over.
Heiser is absolutely right about Ps 82. And when we get to Eph 6:12 we do not see earthly, humanly, rulers and "powers" and etc., but rather "heavenly" beings. Paul even identifies them as "spiritual forces of wickedness". Why anyone would see mankind in Eph 6:12 is beyond me because Paul absolutely identifies them. The sister verses to Eph 6:12 are Eph 1:10; Col 1:16,20; Dan 10:13; and others.
God said through Solomon is that nothing under the sun has changed. The things going on back in biblical times are going on today. His word transcends time. The same needs today existed then. In Churches and in the World. God has written His love letter for and to all of Abraham's descendents that outnumber ther amount of stars.
There is deception in heaven. As Jesus said the heavens suffer violence! And they take it by force. The deceptions are in the way and the paths, The casting ups or the going down. The court without & 42 months described in Revelation is the same as the word for sheepfold in John 10. I think the day of the dead all the veils are down. Time is ended in Revelation 10:5-6. The mystery of God is finished at that time. All can hear the warnings and the trumpets, on earth, in heaven, and beneath the earth. Keep praying for eyes to see and ears to hear and not according to our own understanding. Great teachings. Thank you! Sending all my prayers and praises to our most high Father in heaven!
I truly appreciate the efforts of Michael Heiser in helping others to develop the right understanding of scripture. Scripture can be correctly interpreted and understood by those possessing a developed Intuition, the language Spirit uses to communicate with all souls. Every truth-seeker must thetefore first develop one's intuitive faculty if we seek to know the correct interpretation of the truths hidden within the hard shell of scriptural language. To learn how to develop intuition, an error-free faculty of the superconscious soul, I strongly recommend truth-seekers to read Paramahansa Yogananda's "Autobiography of a Yogi." In the present new era, theological doctrines will no longer suffice in providing today's science and technology influenced humanity a holistic understanding of God and one's true purpose for being born on earth. 🙏
Elohim means “the powerful ones” so there are some attributes assigned to them and not merely disembodied spirits. He is using his pre-determined theology to interpret the scriptures instead of using the scripture to shape and determine theology, at least in this specific case.
I just watched a video where Heiser first admits the the Book of Enock was not written by Enoch and could not have been but the rest of the video he talks about the book as it was written by Enoch 100 percent and tells us how Enoch wanted us to understand this and that.
Anyone who has not signed up for the online courses really ought to consider them. They are fabulous.
Thank you so much for sharing! We are so grateful for the support of our students. Be blessed!

I am so sad that Dr. Heiser left us but I know that he’s in a better place 🙏🏻🥀❤️
So thankful that I found Dr. Heiser, so many pieces meshed perfectly together after hearing his teachings, and I can't find any of them that are unbiblical.
I found Heiser on youtube late one night talking about ufo's and the bible. I thought this will be fun. Well, his teaching opened up so much to me. He was my youtube teacher through a terrible time in my life. I'm sorry he is gone, although he lives. He has left us so much in his youtube teachings, books, etc. Thank you, Dr. Heiser!
I think I have always intuitively known the little g’s were spirits. I never realized people were thrown off by this or that it was ever a mystery to someone.
The spirit world is very thick and populated.
Great seminar…
Thank you
50:33 gave me goosebumps and tears in my eyes. It literally and successfully converted my thinking. 💝
Agreed.
"You're worth more than many sparrows 🐦🐦" if you get the ref
Praise The Lord. His spirit in me recognizes the truth of DR. HEISER'S LECTURE. Thank you Dr. Mike. (starting with #1 and going thru these 3 videos again .....yes. On you tube. 😁
Enjoy! Blessings to you.
@@AWKNGInc Heiser was a false teacher on the unseen realm and this divine council theory he came up with. After reading this post if readers would share thoughts of what Moses meant by "Many Generations". I tried posting this kind of information on Mike's channel multiple times and he or his team never responded.
Genesis 6 & Deuteronomy 32 Explained sons of God
Heiser is correct when he said it should be sons of God in Deuteronomy 32:8. Heiser was a word guy the Hebrew would be >>>>(בני האלהים, bənê hāʼĕlōhîm>"Remember the days of old". Since Mose wrote Torah, the first 5 books of the Bible, which are Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers and Deuteronomy. These "days of old" that Moses mention in verse 7, what Moses is doing is taking the reader back to the Pre-flood time period. Taking Verse 7 (Remember the Days of Old; consider the years of Many Generations;) Can 100% be applied as "sons of God" in Deuteronomy 32:8 as well as Genesis 5 and sons of God in Genesis 6. All makes sense and fits with the Author of Torah who is Moses.
The argument is, is that there No Abrahamic covenant yet, that is 100% true when a person applies verse 7 (Remember the Days of Old; consider the years of Many Generations;) it is more clear and plain to see who the "sons of God" are in both Deuteronomy 32:8 and Genesis 6
Nations are named after a father in scripture. Abraham is considered a father. Jacob (Israel) is the father of the twelve tribes.
Explaining sons of Israel. Exodus 4:22 says "Then you shall say to Pharaoh, ‘Thus says the Lord, Israel is my firstborn son". God is speaking to Moses in this passage, also this is another book of Torah. The passage of scripture of the name change for Jacob to Israel Genesis 32:28 "Then he said, “Your name shall no longer be called Jacob, but Israel, for you have striven with God and with men, and have prevailed.”
Israel (Jacob) had 12 sons which would be 12 tirbes with Many Generations. Getting back to Exodus 4:22 says "Then you shall say to Pharaoh, ‘Thus says the Lord, Israel is my firstborn son".
Since Israel was the "firstborn son" to the Lord God, which would means Israel/Jacobs offspring would be "sons of God" or also to say "children of Israel"
The twelve tribes are as follows: Reuben, Simeon, Judah, Issachar, Zebulun, Benjamin, Dan, Naphtali, Gad, Asher, Ephraim and Manasseh.
See how many Generations came from Isreal (Jacob)
Even the following verses of how the "Text" allows for "sons of Israel" .
Deuteromony 32:9 'But the Lord's portion is his people,
Jacob his allotted heritage.
10 “He found him in a desert land,
and in the howling waste of the wilderness;
he encircled him, he cared for him"
Clearly verses 9 and 10 is talking about the "sons of Israel" which would be Jacob's 12 sons/tribes, key words in the text Jacob alotted heritage (Israel). "The Lord's portion is his people" Israel was the Lord's Chosen people
The 12 tribes were the ones wondering in the desert land which verse 10 is talking about.
That is WHY there is such a debate in the text, both sons of God and children of Israel had "Many Generations". Heiser's divine council of super angels Can Not or Do Not have "Many Generations"
Even looking at Psalm 82:6 "I said, “You are gods, sons of the Most High, all of you;" The word "sons" is used in the Plurality, which would be referencing that the "sons" are human pretaining to the 12 tribes of Israel (Jacob's sons). The word "gods" Jesus answers that in John 10 also human.
Heiser taught gods/elohim and sons are non human, Psalm 82 is his foundation for his false divine council of super angels. These 12 tirbes (Israel) had the Law of God to govern the people. Elders/Rulers/Judges (gods/elohim/divine council) were part of that governing authority. Nothing angelic (Nonhuman) could govern the people. So naturally Humans are getting scolded in Psalm 82, not anything Nonhuman like angels or spirit beings of a divine council. The "divine council" are the Chosen people of God who given the Law of God. Also had the True Prophets of God.
The proper way of interpreting the scripture of Deuteronomy 32:8 whether it should be sons of God or children of Israel? Well which came first the Patriarchs/sons of God, of Genesis 5 and 6 or 12 tribes of Israel, of course it would be the Patriarchs/sons of God which are listed in Genesis 5 with "Many Generations" the longivity of life spans that they would have seen "Many Generations" and did lived old ages. This is ALL in Context, Context Is King!!
Have to remember when scripture was first written there were no chapter breaks or verse breaks, that was added later in English Translations of scipture.
Small summary, Moses tells us who the sons of God are with Remember the Days of Old; consider the years of Many Generations in verse 7 would be Applied to sons of God.
Deuteronomy 32
7 Remember the days of old; consider the years of many generations; ask your father, and he will show you, your elders, and they will tell you.
8 When the Most High gave to the nations their inheritance, when he divided mankind, he fixed the borders of the peoples according to the number of the sons of God.
Clearly this is NOT about a divine council of super angels. This Heiser guy did NOT understand verse 7 (Remember the Days of Old; consider the years of Many Generations;) or Context applied with proper Hermeneutics. He WAS a Blind and False Teacher of scripture when it came to Application, but he was correct in the Translaton of the words sons of God in Deuteronomy 32:8.
I only discovered Dr Heiser last week as I was browsing through TH-cam. I was immediately interested in his teaching on the “Elohim”, hoping he wasn’t playing Joseph Smith and his multiple gods doctrine. I purchased his two last books and look forward to reading them and comparing it all with Scripture.
I will probably never be so privileged as to discuss anything personally with Dr Heiser, but I would exhort him strongly to clearly and frequently state that all the “lesser
elohim” are CREATED BEINGS by The Most High God! Otherwise, people may think he’s become a polytheist of some sort!
God bless all who study God’s Word and preach Christ and Him crucified 🙏🏻❤️
Don't worry! He makes it clear :-)
He’s the last person to believe in polytheism 😊
He only says they are lesser than yaweh but it does sound like there are a bunch of self created gods but one is the head God
I'd love to see dr Heiser and dr Missler have a discussion, maybe we will see that in heaven one day
After 65 years I found Right Division; Their willingness to explore all the Bible. Not all of them but a great many. Because of them I was open to listen to you.
This fills my heart with joy!
Dr Heiser, you are an inspiration for me! Thank you for everything you make, from your books, to your podcast, to these classes. God bless you and your family, and may he heal you. Blessings from Argentina!
I remember the verse where old boy was wrestling an angel, but it also say he wrestled God. Now it makes sense
Nothing up till Michael was right. He fixed our whole Bible!!!
I was always discouraged from angelology because it was either discouraged because of lack of practicality or because it was conflated with the worship of angels, but I can see clearly that its neither of those things. It can actually show us who we are in the supernatural family of God. Now, I probably wouldn't camp here for very long like our brother Dr. Heiser, but I will certainly be here long enough to understand what it means.
I'm of that mind. Of course we can only seek truth. As conscious beings our true speech.
There is some very interesting ideas that we can use to interpret in the relevant science in consciousness, physics, and quantum superposition/collapse.
Because the fools of the earth are trying to understand what they are.
Consider my mind blown. Transformation is guaranteed with this “new to me” information. 🙏🏻❤️
Jesus should have been enough from the start...
@@negro722 forgive me for using the wrong words. Jesus is enough. My understanding is transformed I suppose. And I am guessing you thought you were leaving me an encouraging word or did you purposely try to condemn me?
Thanks!
Thank you Michael Heiser. May you rest in peace.
He has caused the greatest seismic shift in my theological thinking
I look forward to this Part 1/4. Praying for brother Michael. Post Tenebras Lux
No words for the gratitude for having found Dr. Heiser and all that I’ve learned through his work. Praise God for His amazing Book!
Dr. Heiser, thank you for a clear, entertaining and concise explanation of the use of the term "gods." Non-believers have pointed to the use of "gods" attempting to undermine a belief in the Godhead. Now I have a fuller explanation of the multiple uses of the Hebrew term "Elohim" meaning supernational being, good, bad or that of a deceased person. Thank you.
Funny! What was an epiphany to Michael was fun to hear. I have to go back decades to find when this knowledge became part of mine as a young Bible student. We each have different growth rings. Just a decade or less ago, I had one such moment on another subject.
Thank you! DEMONS is next to my chain in my next read pile.
Thank you Jesus!!!
I listen to several ministers/teachers/scholars on TH-cam and I came across Michael Heiser several weeks ago. I couldn’t get enough and listened to one after the other. Then, during one of his lectures, he said that Adam and Eve could of died before they sinned because God said everything He created was good, not perfect. He said they could of drowned or got a cut and bleed to death. Two things disturbed me when I heard this. 1. They were created in God’s image. God is perfect. 2. Most importantly, Romans 6:23 says “For the wages of sin is death.” If sin brings death, how could they have died before they sinned? There was no sin until they sinned. If someone has an answer for this, please comment. I’ve learned a lot from this man but I also let the Holy Spirit be my discernment for God’s truth. I don’t make decisions based on my thoughts or someone else’s teachings. If I feel disturbed by something that I believe the Holy Spirit is showing me, I pray, then research others who I believe teach in truth based on Scripture. No offense meant towards Mike. This is my OPINION, just as he expressed his. All glory to God!
Can you put the link up of the Lecture where he said the things that disturbed you? I would like to hear it in context
Thank you
🙏🙏🙏✝️❣️God's Blessings on Dr. Heiser!
Here's the way I view the Lord God allowing His council to make suggestions.
I love my sons, I want to teach them things in this life. And, I want to know that they know, how to think for themselves and to minimize mistakes when they act. So, when we're working on or planning something. Even though they're young, I will ask their opinion on what they would do, or what they think I should do. Even though I know what has too be done and the best way we should do it. I want their contribution, so if need be, I can teach them why that might not be the best bet. And sometimes, do something how they suggest, if just to show by example why it will not be the right answer, or show them that in fact they were right. But, no matter what, I'm there with them as their "safety net".
I just want them involved and growing.
I believe that, God, being our Heavenly Father and Creator is where we get these types of attributes. It's not hard to believe that He does this with His Heavenly spiritual family, the ones that are faithful to Him.
Dr Michael Heiser: My beginning as a child of YHWY was confusing....
we were military and at 2 yrs old polio struck. My parents were overwhelmed; I was admitted to Wm Beaumont Hospital then when stable placed with wonderful Catholic sisters. I lived with them for a few years until we transferred to Wisconsin. I attended a private school for a year then we moved to eastern Washington state for 3 years. I wore leg braces until 9 years old. I was always surrounded by the attentive sister Nuns and the Church and Scripture.
Mass everyday at 11am and HOLY Scripture.
Alcohol was often in the picture during the military life in the 1950s -1960s....
Somehow I knew the God was watching over me, the sisters were a constant stable influence. I remember telling the sisters that my parents didn't follow ANY of the Commandments. They said Father God loved me so and with a heart for GOD I would help others....
PS: I love hymns of all kinds but especially loved a Gospel song 🎵 "Oh Happy Day"....years later while experiencing many months of decimated NOLA the song 🎵 was uplifting by numerous people; I enjoyed Mahalia Jackson and other Christian ✝️ singers.
I really love his explanation on tough questions but i would really like the answer to why Jesus told mary (touch me not).
@@pamelanevels2969 I’ve been told it was because he’d not yet ascended to the father.
The more I learn about the Bible the more amazed I become. So much information is packed in like riddles and mysteries that need solving and the dark ages stripped the Western world of so much understanding of the ancient world, yet the prophesies are bringing it all back to us.
One question that is so often asked by students of the Bible is when did the fall happen and I have never felt I had an adequate answer nor did I ever hear one until Heiser opened up the word for me and showed me the progression. YHWH and Yeshua mean so much more to me now. Their love and commitment to mankind is so much richer than I ever imagined even though I am born again and have tasted the goodness of the Lord by the indwelling Spirit.
My Heiser's work be embraced by believers worldwide.
Mike really explains it all so beautifully..Thank you Mike and RIP ..Praise the Lord Jesus Christ 🙌
Thanks to someone’s comment on a TH-cam short I have arrived to this channel ❤
This was so fabulous I can’t even describe how excited and thrilled my spirit is watching this because God set the foundation s a few years ago for me to understand this ❤❤❤❤❤❤ just wow wow wow thank u Jesus ❤
We miss you, but you are home now where the only scars are on the hands that hold you now.
O could say I am speechless, but I have one word: Wow!
Dr heiser is sorely missed but I know he’s back with Yahweh now 💕
He is one of the "oil merchants" in the Gospel of Matthew chapter 25. His exegesis is quite astounding.
Very good presentation. You lay it out very well for us non-scholars. Thank you.
This was awesome! Thank you!
I appreciate Dr. Michael
I loved this…on to Part 2
Rest In peace Doc. I pray you are with the Elohim of Gods council right now.
I would have liked to have met in person or online Michael. I submit that though I'm an old fundamentalist extremist whose main concerns are basic Bible truths vis a vis our salvation, the condition of the dead, God and Christ and such - that Michael's insights on the Hebrew/Aramaic/Greek texts have a lot of to teach me. If that means a 100% agreement is another issue.😊
I cannot wait to see him again in heaven and share some time talking about all of this.
There are many ACADEMICS but not many FATHERS.
a father describes to the KIDS what the academics have discovered.... SO OUR LITTLE FAMILY CAN STAY SAFE IN THE "EDENIC PRESENCE" amidst our ordinary lives!!💥🕊️🌷🤸🌱
The Micaiah account lends a LOT of meaning to "and lead us not into temptation but deliver us from the evil one"
Saw a snippet that came across my EwwTube feed and was very surprised... had to chase it down to find complete studies... new subscriber 🎉
ewwtube...lol
Our world leader's are men. And their job is to govern we the people. Truths! Walk in Faith!
Unfortunately I have to go to bed now but that was so good I want to watch another....love and blessings from Sydney Australia.
Isaiah 57:1
“The righteous perisheth, and no man layeth it to heart: and merciful men are taken away, none considering that the righteous is taken away from the evil to come.”
May you SIEP Dr. ❤❤❤❤
Dr. Heiser's pugs must be supernatural!
😂 He is special.
This was very nice. I like theological seminars. ❤
Wonderful video! Thank you for sharing! ❤🙏
This fellow and R.L Solberg are a good pairing for going deeper.
You will be missed
What will really get you is the fact that the Bible is not the first time God gave man this information.
Then when you realize that this book tells us of the supernatural abilities that we have but don't use.
You first have to believe that you have them. You then cannot fear them, nor what they may reveal, which you also have power over.
This Man and Roger Spurr of Mudfossil University are singing from the same hymn sheet!
Miss u Mike ❤.
Heiser is absolutely right about Ps 82. And when we get to Eph 6:12 we do not see earthly, humanly, rulers and "powers" and etc., but rather "heavenly" beings. Paul even identifies them as "spiritual forces of wickedness". Why anyone would see mankind in Eph 6:12 is beyond me because Paul absolutely identifies them. The sister verses to Eph 6:12 are Eph 1:10; Col 1:16,20; Dan 10:13; and others.
Ruth here, 😊 l love that sound at the end
God said through Solomon is that nothing under the sun has changed. The things going on back in biblical times are going on today. His word transcends time. The same needs today existed then. In Churches and in the World. God has written His love letter for and to all of Abraham's descendents that outnumber ther amount of stars.
Excellent teaching 👏
Excellent teaching
The Most High is higher than them all
R.I.P Dr Heiser , hope to see you soon
There is deception in heaven. As Jesus said the heavens suffer violence! And they take it by force. The deceptions are in the way and the paths, The casting ups or the going down.
The court without & 42 months described in Revelation is the same as the word for sheepfold in John 10.
I think the day of the dead all the veils are down. Time is ended in Revelation 10:5-6. The mystery of God is finished at that time. All can hear the warnings and the trumpets, on earth, in heaven, and beneath the earth. Keep praying for eyes to see and ears to hear and not according to our own understanding.
Great teachings. Thank you! Sending all my prayers and praises to our most high Father in heaven!
The other unique thing about Jesus as only begotten Son is that He was the only one born human.
Rest in peace Dr Michael
Could someone direct me to the podcast episode talking about the heavenly books please and thank you 🙏?
I truly appreciate the efforts of Michael Heiser in helping others to develop the right understanding of scripture.
Scripture can be correctly interpreted and understood by those possessing a developed Intuition, the language Spirit uses to communicate with all souls. Every truth-seeker must thetefore first develop one's intuitive faculty if we seek to know the correct interpretation of the truths hidden within the hard shell of scriptural language.
To learn how to develop intuition, an error-free faculty of the superconscious soul, I strongly recommend truth-seekers to read Paramahansa Yogananda's "Autobiography of a Yogi."
In the present new era, theological doctrines will no longer suffice in providing today's science and technology influenced humanity a holistic understanding of God and one's true purpose for being born on earth. 🙏
Elohim means “the powerful ones” so there are some attributes assigned to them and not merely disembodied spirits. He is using his pre-determined theology to interpret the scriptures instead of using the scripture to shape and determine theology, at least in this specific case.
I just watched a video where Heiser first admits the the Book of Enock was not written by Enoch and could not have been but the rest of the video he talks about the book as it was written by Enoch 100 percent and tells us how Enoch wanted us to understand this and that.
Yes, I think that we should be openly hostile to anyone who doesn't share our ideals
