The angel of the presence spake to Moses according to the word of the Lord, saying: Write the complete history of the creation, how in six days the Lord God finished all His works and all that He created, and kept Sabbath on the seventh day and hallowed it for all ages, and appointed it as a sign for all His works.

he beheld the glory of the Almighty
and all the hidden wisdom of creation.
–Numbers Rabbah 12:12–
Moses received the Torah and
understood all the works of creation.
–Bereshit Rabbah 1:1–

an angel of the Lord in a flame of fire in a bush.

The Spirit of the Sovereign Lord is upon you
Because He has anointed you to preach good news
The Spirit of the Sovereign God is upon you
Because He has anointed you to preach good news
He has sent you to the poor
This is the year
To bind up the broken-hearted
This is the day
To bring freedom to the captives
This is the year
And to release the ones in darkness
This is the year of the favor of the Lord
This is the day of the vengeance of our God
This is the year of the favor of the Lord
This is the day of the vengeance of our God
The Spirit of the Sovereign Lord is upon us
Because He has anointed us to preach good news
The Spirit of the Sovereign God is upon us
Because He has anointed us to preach good news
He will comfort all who mourn
This is the year
He will provide for those who grieve
This is the day
He will pour out the oil of gladness
This is the year
Instead of mourning, you will praise
–Andy Park, Vineyard Music, “Spirit of the Sovereign Lord”–


The Iraqi Fig Tree might be the same species as the Tree of Knowledge that threw the human race into a state of damnation. Today its just a fruit tree like any other that you can buy for $80. Notice the big leaves–just like the leaves that Adam and Eve tried to cover themselves with. To this day, figs have been shown to support the intellect and mind by providing necessary nutrients for neuroprotection, reducing brain inflammation, improving memory, and lowering anxiety levels. They are considered a “brain-boosting” food that supports mental clarity. In this sense, they might be considered a fruit that contributes to retaining knowledge.
