- It doesn’t matter if men say the contrary!

- We have so many examples going in the right or wrong directions and the consequences of everyone’s choice!

Daniel 9:

- Daniel keeps praying to Yah.weh!

- Yah.weh listens to Daniel because he prays to Yah.weh with humility!

- He recognizes all the bad actions of Israel!

- And there is a long list!

- And Yah.weh tells him Jerusalem will be rebuilt but destroyed again!

- He tells a lot about how Yah.weh considers Israel!

- Human history is just a repetition of that and the contrary!

Daniel 1


- Daniel had a good education!

- He was taught Yah.weh’s word when he was young!

- It could penetrate his heart and mind!

- When he was exiled to Babylon in a foreign land with a different tradition and religion, Daniel would stick to his faith and his way of living!

- It shows the importance to be taught about God’s word when being a child!

- Or even before when he is in his mother’s womb!

- When it is liquid and he can hear everything!

- And if he goes to the water he will behave like an animal or a dog!

- But if not, it disappears all at once!

- It is important to study the Bible daily!

- It should be the norm!

- Because then the majority doesn’t do it!

- Intelligence or stupidity!

- But then stupidity spreads like a pandemic and everybody can see where we are now, tomorrow it will be another story!

- Why is it always too late with men!

- Why do they always lose time!

- Children must learn how to personally know the faithful characters!

- They must become their friends!

- But they are only strangers!

- Thus they will gradually learn how to become faithful to Yah.weh and develop a special relationship with him!

- They will learn how to pray to Yah.weh and open their hearts to him!

- It is never too late but it is more difficult when it is necessary to do it when an adult or even later!

- So it is better to start as early as possible!

- Remember Jesus when he was in the temple at the age of 12 speaking with the priests who were astounded by his knowledge!

- This old world only offers superficiality but it leads nowhere, certainly not to Yah.weh!

- With the Bible we have everything but we need to open the doors and there are many!

- But many let the doors closed and they go to religious meetings and they do it as if they were watching TV passively!

- They only hear noise but nothing penetrates their hearts and minds!

- How do you want to get closer to Yah.weh in such a way!

- What do you think Yah.weh will think of you?

- Will you be a stranger or a friend of his?

- It’s up to you!

- And the clock is running!

- And when it’s too late, it’s too late!

- Remember Adam and Eve!

- Remember when the door of the Ark was closed and it started to rain, it was too late!

- Remember when Jerusalem was destroyed twice!

- And Yah.weh let them plenty of time and they wasted it!

- And they keep wasting him!

- Or they have better things to do!

Daniel 2


- Daniel had a good education and he was taught Yah.weh’s word when he was young!


- But he would keep it to maintain and develop it daily!


- Every time he felt the need, he would pray to Yah.weh and in case of extreme emergency, he would ask his companions to pray too!


- And Yah.weh would tell him about visions and dreams and their interpretations and to nobody else!


- The channel of communication between them was constantly open!


- It was something natural and necessary!


- Like what it should be between parents and children!


- The problem is even there there is usually no more communication!


- So how do you want to develop a strong communication when there is no or little communication between you and your children!


- And the same if children don’t know how to communicate with their parents, how do you want them to learn how to communicate with God!


- We have cellphones and social networks, but when people are in front of each other, they usually don’t communicate anymore!


- How many old people stay alone and don’t communicate anymore!


- Everything seems so superficial in this dying world!


- Even communication is dying!


- Take the example of the communication between Yah.weh and Jesus!


- There are so many examples!


- But it has to be worked out!


- There are doors but if they stay closed, it leads nowhere!


- Such testimony is so valuable for us because we have lost such a way of communication!


- We have so much to learn if we open our ears and eyes!


- But we need to learn how to see with our brain, not only our eyes!


- Of course, it is extremely difficult when we live in such a superficial modern world!

Daniel 3


- When we speak about Daniel, we can say the same about his three companions!

- They say no to Nebuchadnezzar!

- There is nothing to say, their ideas are clear!

- Whatever may happen, they are resolute!

- They speak with one voice!

- They don’t need to discuss!

- They know who they belong to!

- They know who they worship!

- It is based on a good knowledge of Yah.weh’s word!

- It is the same when Daniel asks them to pray to Yah.weh to get a vision and its interpretation!

- Strong knowledge and strong communication!

- No superficial knowledge and no superficial communication!

- They can see the lighthouse!

- And it shines at any time in any weather!

- There is no darkness for them!

- They can’t lose their way!

- It is so different from today!

- Or I should say it is completely different!

- Once again they get away from corruption!

- We can see the opposition between purity and corruption!

- We definitely live in the Dark Ages!

- Everything is dark!

- And it comes from the lack of knowledge!

- People don’t know anything and they don’t care!

- Why should Yah.weh care?

- What do you think will happen when Jesus comes back as a warrior to destroy this human society?

- Of course, he will destroy it completely to develop Yah.weh’s kingdom!

- People should wake up!

- Is it too late?

- That is the question!

- If it is too late, is it possible to hurry up?

- The past shows us that the majority didn’t react and paid the consequences!

Daniel 4


- Babylon was the greatest nation at the time!

- You can get many wise men in Babylon at this time!

- There are also many Jews in Babylon at the time!

- And according to what we can read in Daniel 1, these people are able men!

- But only four Jews get out of these people!

- Daniel and his three companions!

- And nobody can be compared to them!

- And among these four Jews, one is more exceptional than the others!

- Daniel!

- And guess why?

- He is the one with the best relationship with Yah.weh!

- He gets the visions and the dreams and their interpretations!

- He has Yah.weh’s spirit!

- He is directly connected to Yah.weh!

- And he keeps developing this connection every day!

- It fills his life!

- Faithful servants of Yah.weh should look for such relationships!

- I mean such direct relationships!

- Now let’s have a look at a big difference between the two parts of the Bible in connection with such a relationship!

- Something else so essential people usually don’t pay attention to in connection with the superficiality of our world!

- So once again how do we want to understand the Bible if we don’t open our eyes and ears!

What was the lifespan of Daniel?

Answer and Explanation: Daniel was approximately 17 or 18 when he was carried away into captivity and roughly 70 when he was thrown into the lion's den, and he died around 85 years old. This can be determined by looking at the reign of certain kings of Babylon.

- Thus it means many years to develop a special relationship to Yah.weh!

- We should add a direct relationship to Yah.weh!

- How is it possible to miss the point?

 

[JLG]

What was the lifespan of Job in the Bible?

According to Job 42:16, Job lived an additional 140 years after his tragedies occurred, perhaps to around 210 years total. His long lifespan generally corresponds to that of Terah (Abraham's father), Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.

- Thus it means many years to develop a special relationship to Yah.weh!

- We should add a direct relationship to Yah.weh!

 

[JLG]

What was the lifespan of Samuel in the Bible?

Several years later, after quietly having retired to Ramah, Samuel died. He had already been "old" when he had been called on to anoint Saul. Since Saul reigned forty years, and Samuel had grown sons as an "old" man of perhaps fifty years old, the aged prophet was around ninety when he died.

- Thus it means many years to develop a special relationship to Yah.weh!

- We should add a direct relationship to Yah.weh!

 

[JLG]

What was the lifespan of Abraham in the Bible?

Altogether, Abraham lived a hundred and seventy-five years. Then Abraham breathed his last and died at a good old age, an old man and full of years; and he was gathered to his people. the field Abraham had bought from the Hittites. There Abraham was buried with his wife Sarah.

- Thus it means many years to develop a special relationship to Yah.weh!

- We should add a direct relationship to Yah.weh!

 

[JLG]

What was the lifespan of Moses in the Bible?

After 40 years of wandering in the desert, Moses died on Mount Nebo at the age of 120, within sight of the Promised Land.

- Thus it means many years to develop a special relationship to Yah.weh!

- We should add a direct relationship to Yah.weh!

 

[JLG]

What was the lifespan of Joshua in the Bible?

In Numbers 13:1 and after the death of Moses, he led the Israelite tribes in the conquest of Canaan, and allocated lands to the tribes. According to biblical chronology, Joshua lived some time in the Bronze Age. According to Joshua 24:29 Joshua died at the age of 110.

- Thus it means many years to develop a special relationship to Yah.weh!

- We should add a direct relationship to Yah.weh!

 

[JLG]

What was the lifespan of Ezra in the Bible?

He spent his life as a priest, serving the Israelites during their exile in Babylon and as they returned to Jerusalem. And his religious leadership helped generate a revival among the Jews as they resettled. Called “the father of Judaism” or “the second Moses” by some, Ezra was passionate about God's Law. According to tradition, Ezra died at the age of 120 in Babylonia.

- Thus it means many years to develop a special relationship to Yah.weh!

- We should add a direct relationship to Yah.weh!

 

[JLG]

What was the lifespan of Nehemiah in the Bible?

Nehemiah (flourished 5th century bce) was a Jewish leader who supervised the rebuilding of Jerusalem in the mid-5th century bce after his release from captivity by the Persian king Artaxerxes I. He also instituted extensive moral and liturgical reforms in rededicating the Jews to Yahweh.

One of the last acts of his government was an effort to put an end to mixed marriages, which led him to "chase" away a son of Joiada, the high-priest, because he was son-inlaw to Sanballat the Horonite (Ne 13:23-29). It is not unlikely that Nehemiah remained at his post till about the year B.C. 405, towards the close of the reign of Darius Nothus, who is mentioned in 12:22.. At this time Nehemiah would be between sixty and seventy years old, if we suppose him (as most do) to have been only between twenty and thirty when he first went to Jerusalem. That he lived to be an old man is thus quite probable from the sacred history; and this is expressly declared by Josephus, who (Ant. 11:5, 6) states that he died at an advanced age. Of the place and year of his death nothing is known.

- Thus it means many years to develop a special relationship to Yah.weh!

- We should add a direct relationship to Yah.weh!

 

[JLG]

What was the lifespan of Isaiah in the Bible?

Isaiah was somewhere between 65 and 75 years old when he died. The Bible doesn't say when he was born or when he died, but these dates can be approximated by who the kings of Judah were during his life. The Book of Isaiah, written largely by Isaiah, says that he began his ministry before King Uzziah's death in 740 BCE.

- Thus it means many years to develop a special relationship to Yah.weh!

- We should add a direct relationship to Yah.weh!
