John 18:  35-38

Pilate answered, ‘Am I a Jew? It is your own people and the chief priests who have handed you over to me: what have you done?’ Jesus replied, ‘Mine is not a kingdom of this world; if my kingdom were of this world, my men would have fought to prevent my being surrendered to the Jews. As it is, my kingdom does not belong here.’ Pilate said, ‘So, then you are a king?’ Jesus answered, ‘It is you who say that I am a king. I was born for this, I came into the world for this, to bear witness to the truth; and all who are on the side of truth listen to my voice.’ ‘Truth?’ said Pilate. ‘What is that?’ And so saying he went out again to the Jews and said, ‘I find no case against him. 

John 19: 10-11  

Pilate then said to him, ‘Are you refusing to speak to me? Surely you know I have power to release you and I have power to crucify you?’ Jesus replied, ‘You would have no power over me at all if it had not been given you from above; that is why the man who handed me over to you has the greater guilt.’

  

John 19: 14-16

It was the Day of Preparation, about the sixth hour. ‘Here is your king,’ said Pilate to the Jews. But they shouted, ‘Away with him, away with him, crucify him.’ Pilate said, ‘Shall I crucify your king?’ The chief priests answered, ‘We have no king except Caesar.’ So at that Pilate handed him over to them to be crucified.

John 19: 41-42

At the place where he had been crucified there was a garden, and in this garden a new tomb in which no one had yet been buried. Since it was the Jewish Day of Preparation and the tomb was nearby, they laid Jesus there.

Messenger:        The Holy Land is an important place

   

Acts 5: 29-32

In reply Peter and the apostles said, ‘Obedience to God comes before obedience to men; it was the God of our ancestors who raised up Jesus, whom you executed by hanging on a tree. By his own right hand God has now raised him up to be leader and Saviour, to give repentance and forgiveness of sins through him to Israel. We are witnesses to this, we and the Holy Spirit whom God has given to those who obey him.’

  

Romans 4: 1-6

Then what do we say about Abraham, the ancestor from whom we are descended physically? If Abraham had been justified because of what he had done, then he would have had something to boast about. But not before God: does not scripture say: Abraham put his faith in God and this was reckoned to him as uprightness?  Now, when someone works, the wages for this are not considered as a favour but as due; however, when someone, without working, puts faith in the one who justifies the godless, it is this faith that is reckoned as uprightness. David, too, says the same: he calls someone blessed if God attributes uprightness to that person, apart from any action undertaken:

 

Romans 6: 4-5, 9

So by our baptism into his death we were buried with him, so that as Christ was raised from the dead by the Father’s glorious power, we too should begin living a new life. If we have been joined to him by dying a death like his, so we shall be by a resurrection like his;

We know that Christ has been raised from the dead and will never die again. Death has no power over him any more.

 

Romans 8: 14-17

All who are guided by the Spirit of God are sons of God; for what you received was not the spirit of slavery to bring you back into fear; you received the Spirit of adoption, enabling us to cry out, ‘Abba, Father!’ The Spirit himself joins with our spirit to bear witness that we are children of God. And if we are children, then we are heirs, heirs of God and joint–heirs with Christ, provided that we share his suffering, so as to share his glory.

  

1 Corinthians 2: 7

It is of the mysterious wisdom of God that we talk, the wisdom that was hidden, which God predestined to be for our glory before the ages began.

  

1 Corinthians 4: 7-8

Who made you so important? What have you got that was not given to you? And if it was given to you, why are you boasting as though it were your own? You already have everything—you are rich already—you have come into your kingdom, without any help from us! Well, I wish you were kings and we could be kings with you!

  

1 Corinthians 15: 44

what is sown is a natural body, and what is raised is a spiritual body. If there is a natural body, there is a spiritual body too.

   

1 Corinthians 15:  47

The first man, being made of earth, is earthly by nature; the second man is from heaven.

  

1 Corinthians 15:  51-52

Now I am going to tell you a mystery: we are not all going to fall asleep, but we are all going to be changed, instantly, in the twinkling of an eye, when the last trumpet sounds. The trumpet is going to sound, and then the dead will be raised imperishable, and we shall be changed,

  

1 Corinthians 15:  55-56

Death, where is your victory? Death, where is your sting?  The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin comes from the Law.

  

2 Corinthians 6:  14 - 18

    Do not harness yourselves in an uneven team with unbelievers; how can uprightness and law–breaking be partners, or what can light and darkness have in common? How can Christ come to an agreement with Beliar and what sharing can there be between a believer and an unbeliever? The temple of God cannot compromise with false gods, and that is what we are—the temple of the living God. We have God’s word for it: I shall fix my home among them and live among them; I will be their God and they will be my people. Get away from them, purify yourselves, says the Lord. Do not touch anything unclean, and then I shall welcome you. I shall be father to you, and you will be sons and daughters to me, says the almighty Lord.

  

2 Corinthians 13:  5-7  

    Put yourselves to the test to make sure you are in the faith. Examine yourselves. Do you not recognise yourselves as people in whom Jesus Christ is present?—unless, that is, you fail the test. But we, as I hope you will come to recognise, do not fail the test. It is our prayer to God that you may do nothing wrong—not so that we have the credit of passing a test, but because you will be doing what is right, even if we do not pass the test.

Ephesians 1: 21-23

far above every principality, ruling force, power or sovereignty,  or any other name that can be named, not only in this age but also in the age to come. He has put all things under his feet,  and made him, as he is above all things, the head of the Church; which is his Body, the fullness of him who is filled, all in all.

  

Ephesians 3: 19-23

so that, knowing the love of Christ, which is beyond knowledge, you may be filled with the utter fullness of God.

    Glory be to him whose power, working in us, can do infinitely more than we can ask or imagine; glory be to him from generation to generation in the Church and in Christ Jesus for ever and ever. Amen

Would You Give Your Life For Me?

August 24, 1994

Jesus:  One lump on your head: they beat My head, they bruised My body, I was red and bloody, they tore My flesh, they hit Me over and over again and they laughed! They hollered such slanderous things at Me. When they holler at you and persecute you, remember what they did to Me.

    Suffer your little crosses, look to Me and what they did. The devil tempts others to speak harshly against you. Many are suffering inside when they persecute you. Pray for them. Anyone who is directing hate at you is allowing Satan to use them. Oh, how they need your prayers! Offer up your trials and sufferings to the Father, along with the Masses being offered at that moment. This is such a pleasing offering to My Father.

    Please, child, stay so focused on Me and My ways. One bump to the head and look how you worry for yourself. Oh, sweet one, you do not know the blows they gave to My head. Without any warning, I was smacked, hit and pierced with sharp instruments. They hit My head with big clubs and laughed.

    My child, for you I suffered! For you, I loved unto My very death! Would you give your life for Me? I love you this much. Your acts of love this day comforted Me during My passion. I love you so very much. I wait to share your love with you this very day. I wait and love you so much. 

    Come to Me, My dear and tender heart. I am your beloved Jesus. My Mother is forever with you, with such love.  Focus on this love in the cold world and pray, pray, pray.

Offer up your life for those in darkness. Your every action is a prayer if you are doing the Father's will. I love you so much, My precious dear one. I am the Sacred Heart of Jesus, on fire for love of you!

Messenger:             Even the small child wants their way.

                    A small child can cry and say, "I want,

                    I want, I want."

                        A child knows what they want and they

                    must be taught they can't have everything

                    they want.

                        When children grow up many times they

                    say "I had to do this all my life and you aren't

                    going to tell me what to do."

                        With an attitude in later life, " I am not going

                    to have anybody telling me what to do," how can

                    there be harmony with that person in anything they

                    do.

Jesus speaks:          Why do you give me one thing when I ask for

                    something else? Many times the attitude that blocks

                    work being done is the position of the person

                    "I am not going to have anyone telling me what

                    to do." It is like acting like an old mule, stubborn,

                    worn out and willful. With some it is so automatic

                    they act contrary —

                    they never learned to give and take normally, they

                    do what is the "opposite" of what is required, what

                    is paramount to them is "never being told what

                    to do"

                        They say or rationalize "I do not want anyone 

                    telling me how or what is done, I am now an adult and 

                    being an adult means I am out for #one."

                        What is the measuring stick is not whether

                     you are in control, but what is God's will.

                     Some people to control others do not look at their

                    own behavior of others, unjustly judging them, looking

                    to religion to justify their own ironic behavior.

                        I tell you to remove the big block of wood in your

                    own eye, before you look for the splinter in your

                    brother's eye.

                        What is the condition of the heart? How

                    do you speak to one another?

                          A  young man pointed his finger at a little

                    tired old lady for wasting time when he himself

                    caused so much upsetment he wasted weeks of

                    hard work.

                            If the tables were turned the finger would

                    have been pointed at him for wasting weeks of

                    work and the little old lady was just tired

                    and quit early.

                            Control is an important thing when one

                    is in charge of a family, but control that

                    chokes a child or hurts the progress of

                    spiritual growth and living according to God's 

                    will is "selfish-control."

                            A man called wolf and he called it every

                    day, he abused his friends, he didn't do his

                    daily duties, caring for his children and obeying

                    the commandments himself. He had lots

                    of time on his hands and he did perverted

                    things. He would hurt others intentionally and

                    expect them to come running to him and

                    help him. His mind became so twisted in his

                    thinking he no longer looked at any of his

                    actions at all, he did horrendous deeds to

                    others and then came and cried he wanted 

                    help and expected others to come running

                    after him and love him. When a man continually

                    calls wolf, others will not come when he needs them 

                    when the wolf has come.

                        I give you this commandment to love God

                    with all your heart and all your soul and

                    love your neighbor as yourself. People who have

                    been abused and hurt themselves can become

                    abusers treating others dishonorably and

                    violating their boundaries.

                        Why do you not see the block of wood in

                    your own eye before you try to remove

                    the splinter in your brothers.

                    And so sin entered the world.

                    The evil serpent, the devil, tempted Eve

                        and she sinned.

                        Adam, too, ate of the apple.

                    I give you a free will.

                    See the little child, kick and scream, being

                        held in the parents arms crying, I want...,

                        I want... — screaming —

                    And even if a child grows up, sometimes the battle

                        is so much more difficult in the teenage

                        years, for the child may just do what they

                        want and lie to the parents. Or they live

                        at home and are always challenging the

                        parents openly or in their minds. "I want...

                        I will do this..." and they may not tell the

                        parents at all.

                    Where do the children of strong-will go after

                        age 20, how many willful adults carry

                        out a battle with everyone around them

                        with an attitude "No body is going to tell me

                        what to do."

                    I ask you in the world today where the will of many

                        is to do what ever they want, why do you think

                        community and religious life is declining.

                    Did you ever see little willful boys fighting on the

                        playground? Did you see people competing in

                        an argument, just to be in the lead? How

                        many arguments go on everyday in which the

                        person wants the satisfaction of being " in-the-

                        lead."

                    How will the Church ever be supported by religious

                        communities living in harmony if the evil

                        serpent the devil makes greater and greater

                        strides trying to get people to be

                        more willful and disharmonious.

                    Today the devil is pulling the wool over the

                        eyes of many as the world goes more and more

                        in a selfish direction of individuals,

                        conquering and controlling for their own

                        personal gain.

                        They try to make this world their kingdom.

                        They try to be on top, they don't want anyone

                            over them.

                    I am the King of heaven and earth.

                        My people support My Kingdom.

                        Look at all the movie actors and children

                            in schools being taught to promote

                            themselves.

                    What if all the work of all the people were

                        done for the honor and glory of God

                        and not their own selfish honor and

                        glory.

                    Who do you live for?

                        FOR YOURSELF

                        FOR YOUR GOD?

                    Do you LIVE TO PROMOTE

                        MY KINGDOM.

                    THE FATHER IS YOUR FATHER.

                    Religious communities must be founded where

                        women are not fighting with men,

                        trying to be priests

                        Spiritual Childhood.

  

Excerpt from Tell My People

    

Spiritual Childhood

Mary: "My beloved priest-son, how I love to enfold you in my arms as my little child! Enfolded in my arms in my maternal embrace, I press you against my Immaculate Heart. I draw you within my Heart. There, through my maternal intercession, I clothe you with Jesus' graces. As you dwell in my Heart, I place you ever more deeply within Jesus' Heart and there the Holy Spirit fashions you increasingly in the image of my Son. As you grow in the likeness of Jesus, He takes you ever closer to the Father.

"Thus, as you grow in the sense of your helplessness without God, the stronger you become in Jesus. Childlike thus becomes strength. The smaller you become in living out spiritual childhood, the taller you stand beside Jesus. Weakness becomes strength, your sense of helplessness becomes spiritual maturity!

"Tell all my children about the wonders of spiritual childhood! Tell them to come to me and I will school them in its ways. How I love all my children! Oh, how I love to exercise my motherhood toward them all!"

Reflection: In the Gospel, Jesus speaks emphatically to us about spiritual childhood: "At this time the disciples came to Jesus and said, 'Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?' So he called a little child to him and set the child in front of them. Then he said, 'I tell you solemnly, unless you change and become like little children you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. And so, the one who makes himself as little as this little child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven'" (Matthew 18:1-4).

John 18: 33-40

    So Pilate went back into the Praetorium and called Jesus to him and asked him, ‘Are you the king of the Jews?’ Jesus replied, ‘Do you ask this of your own accord, or have others said it to you about me?’ Pilate answered, ‘Am I a Jew? It is your own people and the chief priests who have handed you over to me: what have you done?’ Jesus replied, ‘Mine is not a kingdom of this world; if my kingdom were of this world, my men would have fought to prevent my being surrendered to the Jews. As it is, my kingdom does not belong here.’ Pilate said, ‘So, then you are a king?’ Jesus answered, ‘It is you who say that I am a king. I was born for this, I came into the world for this, to bear witness to the truth; and all who are on the side of truth listen to my voice.’ ‘Truth?’ said Pilate. ‘What is that?’ And so saying he went out again to the Jews and said, ‘I find no case against him. But according to a custom of yours I should release one prisoner at the Passover; would you like me, then, to release for you the king of the Jews?’ At this they shouted, ‘Not this man,’ they said, ‘but Barabbas.’ Barabbas was a bandit.

 

John 19: 1-22

    Pilate then had Jesus taken away and scourged; and after this, the soldiers twisted some thorns into a crown and put it on his head and dressed him in a purple robe. They kept coming up to him and saying, ‘Hail, king of the Jews!’ and slapping him in the face. 

    Pilate came outside again and said to them, ‘Look, I am going to bring him out to you to let you see that I find no case against him.’ Jesus then came out wearing the crown of thorns and the purple robe. Pilate said, ‘Here is the man.’ When they saw him, the chief priests and the guards shouted, ‘Crucify him! Crucify him!’ Pilate said, ‘Take him yourselves and crucify him: I find no case against him.’ The Jews replied, ‘We have a Law, and according to that Law he ought to be put to death, because he has claimed to be Son of God.’ 

    When Pilate heard them say this his fears increased. Re–entering the Praetorium, he said to Jesus, ‘Where do you come from?’ But Jesus made no answer. Pilate then said to him, ‘Are you refusing to speak to me? Surely you know I have power to release you and I have power to crucify you?’ Jesus replied, ‘You would have no power over me at all if it had not been given you from above; that is why the man who handed me over to you has the greater guilt.’

Jesus is condemned to death

^{From that moment Pilate was anxious to set him free, but the Jews shouted, ‘If you set him free you are no friend of Caesar’s; anyone who makes himself king is defying Caesar.’ Hearing these words, Pilate had Jesus brought out, and seated him on the chair of judgement at a place called the Pavement, in Hebrew Gabbatha. It was the Day of Preparation, about the sixth hour. ‘Here is your king,’ said Pilate to the Jews. But they shouted, ‘Away with him, away with him, crucify him.’ Pilate said, ‘Shall I crucify your king?’ The chief priests answered, ‘We have no king except Caesar.’ So at that Pilate handed him over to them to be crucified.}

The crucifixion

^{They then took charge of Jesus, and carrying his own cross he went out to the Place of the Skull or, as it is called in Hebrew, Golgotha, where they crucified him with two others, one on either side, Jesus being in the middle. Pilate wrote out a notice and had it fixed to the cross; it ran: ‘Jesus the Nazarene, King of the Jews’. This notice was read by many of the Jews, because the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city, and the writing was in Hebrew, Latin and Greek. So the Jewish chief priests said to Pilate, ‘You should not write "King of the Jews", but that the man said, "I am King of the Jews". ’ Pilate answered, ‘What I have written, I have written.’}

^{136. THE FOURTH DAY}

        ^{A MEDITATION ON TWO STANDARDS}

^{The one of Christ, our supreme leader and lord,
the other of Lucifer, the deadly enemy of our
human nature}

^{PRAYER.   The usual preparatory prayer.}

window at a former Jesuit Seminary

^{137. FIRST PRELUDE.   This is the history. Here it will be that Christ calls and wants all beneath His standard, and Lucifer, on the other hand, wants all under his.}

^{138. SECOND PRELUDE.   This is a mental representation of the place. It will be here to see a great plain, comprising the whole region about Jerusalem, where the sovereign Commander-in-Chief of all the good is Christ our Lord; and another plain about the region of Babylon, where the chief of the enemy is Lucifer.}

^{139. THIRD PRELUDE.   This is to ask for what I desire. Here it will be to ask for a knowledge of the deceits of the rebel chief and help to guard myself against them; and also to ask for a knowledge of the true life exemplified in the sovereign and true Commander, and the grace to imitate Him.}
   

^{FIRST PART}

^{THE STANDARD OF SATAN}

^{140. FIRST POINT.   Imagine you see the chief of all the enemy in the vast plain about Babylon, seated on a great throne of fire and smoke, his appearance inspiring horror and terror.}

^{141. SECOND POINT.   Consider how he summons innumerable demons, and scatters them, some to one city and some to another, throughout the whole world, so that no province, no place, no state of life, no individual is overlooked.}

^{142. THIRD POINT.   Consider the address he makes to them, how he goads them on to lay snares for men and bind them with chains. First they are to tempt them to covet riches (as Satan himself is accustomed to do in most cases) that they may the more easily attain the empty honors of this world, and then come to overweening pride.}

   ^{The first step, then, will be riches, the second honor, the third pride. From these three steps the evil one leads to all other vices.}
   

^{SECOND PART}

^{THE STANDARD OF CHRIST}

^{143.   In a similar way, we are to picture to ourselves the sovereign and true Commander, Christ our Lord.}

^{144. FIRST POINT.   Consider Christ our Lord, standing in a lowly place in a great plain about the region of Jerusalem, His appearance beautiful and attractive.}

^{145. SECOND POINT.   Consider how the Lord of all the world chooses so many persons, apostles, disciples, etc., and sends them throughout the whole world to spread His sacred doctrine among all men, no matter what their state or condition.}

Excerpt from Response in Christ

^{by Father Edward Carter, S.J.}

           b) Christ as King

Vatican II reminds us that Christ is not only prophet, but also king: "Christ, becoming obedient even unto death and because of this exalted by the Father. . . , entered into the glory of His kingdom. To Him all things are made subject until he subjects himself and all created things to the Father that God may be all in all."⁵

     Through His Incarnation, Christ as man became king over creation. In assuming a human nature, He united to Himself man and also the material creation below man. In the words of Teilhard de Chardin, Christ is the physical center of the Universe.⁶ Through His redemptive sacrifice, which is the culminating act of His Incarnation, Christ strengthened His title as king.

     Christ has redeemed man, and as a consequence of man's redemption, the whole physical universe has been redeemed.⁷ The appropriateness of nonrational creation being redeemed together with man himself is evident. In God's original act of creation He gave man dominion over material creation. This part of creation was meant to serve man in his quest for happiness here and hereafter. With the intrusion of sin into God's creation, man and nonrational creation were both affected. Through his misuse of God's creation by sin, man not only puts disorder into himself, but also into the creation which he misuses.

     Christ's redemption is meant to restore the disarray caused by man's sinfulness. Christ through His redemptive grace desires to heal more and more the sinfulness of man as this affects man himself and man's relationship to the material universe. Christ as king wants His redemptive grace to spread out and touch deeply man and the physical universe. With grace man relates properly to the material universe, for he more and more brings the material universe back to its role in God's creation, namely, that it serve man in achieving his temporal and eternal happiness. What is man's happiness? Because of the Incarnation, there is now only one destiny for man both here and hereafter. That destiny is a supernatural one in Christ. The material universe, through Christ's redemptive Incarnation, has therefore entered into this supernatural structure. Man and the physical universe have both been marked with the blood of Christ. More and more they are to be Christianized, that is, ever more perfectly drawn into the supernatural order established by Christ and centered in Him.

     To extend this kingly influence of Christ over creation is the task now of both Christ and His Church. We have long been aware that this means deepening and extending Christ's kingdom as regards man himself. But we are just beginning to realize what it means to extend His kingdom to everything which pertains to man. Vatican II, in opening up the Church to everything which is good in the world, has impressed upon us the fact that the Church, in prolonging Christ's kingly mission, must be deeply involved not only with man himself, but with everything which is of authentic concern to man. The council unmistakably tells us this: "The faithful, therefore, must learn the deepest meaning and the value of all creation, as well as its role in the harmonious praise of God. They must assist each other to live holier lives even in their secular occupations. In this way the world may be permeated by the spirit of Christ and it may more effectively fulfill its purpose in justice, charity and peace."⁸

     All within the Church are called to extend the influence of Christ as king. Each member of the People of God has a share in this kingly mission. Each must fulfill his role according to his vocation, talents, opportunities and graces. But fulfill his role he must. No one but the individual Christian in question can fulfill the particular role which God has intended for that individual. The Christian's quest for holiness is thus intimately connected with his response to Christ the king. The more ideally each Christian responds to this call of Christ, the more the entire Church can fulfill her mission of continuing Christ's kingly mission. This mission consists in imprinting the name of Jesus Christ more deeply upon the entire universe, men and matter alike.

^{Isaiah 2: 1-5}

^{The vision of Isaiah son of Amoz, concerning Judah and Jerusalem.} 

^{It will happen in the final days 
that the mountain of Yahweh’s house 
will rise higher than the mountains 
and tower above the heights. 
Then all the nations will stream to it, 
many peoples will come to it and say, 
‘Come, let us go up 
    to the mountain of Yahweh, 
to the house of the God of Jacob 
that he may teach us his ways 
so that we may walk in his paths.’ 
For the Law will issue from Zion 
and the word of Yahweh from Jerusalem.} 

^{Then he will judge between the nations 
and arbitrate between many peoples. 
They will hammer their swords 
    into ploughshares 
and their spears into sickles. 
Nation will not lift sword against nation, 
no longer will they learn how to make war.}  

^{House of Jacob, come, 
    let us walk in Yahweh’s light.}

  

                    ^{Sing: Crown Him With Many Crowns}   

^{Isaiah 29: 17-24}

^{Is it not true that in a very short time 
the Lebanon 
    will become productive ground, 
so productive you might take it 
    for a forest? 
That day the deaf 
will hear the words of the book 
and, delivered from shadow and darkness, 
the eyes of the blind will see. 
The lowly will find ever more joy 
    in Yahweh 
and the poorest of people 
    will delight in the Holy One of Israel; 
for the tyrant will be no more, 
    the scoffer has vanished 
and all those on the look–out for evil 
    have been destroyed: 
those who incriminate others 
    by their words, 
those who lay traps for the arbitrator 
    at the gate 
and groundlessly deprive the upright 
    of fair judgement. 
That is why Yahweh, 
    God of the House of Jacob, 
Abraham’s redeemer, says this, 
‘No longer shall Jacob be disappointed, 
no more shall his face grow pale, 
for when he sees his children, 
my creatures, home again with him, 
he will acknowledge my name as holy, 
he will acknowledge 
    the Holy One of Jacob to be holy 
and will hold the God of Israel in awe. 
Erring spirits will learn to understand 
and murmurers accept instruction.’}

  

^{Isaiah 61: 4-9}

^{They will rebuild the ancient ruins, 
they will raise what has long lain waste, 
they will restore the ruined cities, 
all that has lain waste for ages past. 
Strangers will come forward 
    to feed your flocks, 
foreigners be your ploughmen 
    and vinedressers;
but you will be called ‘priests of Yahweh’ 
and be addressed as ‘ministers of our God’. 
You will feed on the wealth of nations, 
you will supplant them in their glory.
To make up for your shame, 
    you will receive double; 
instead of disgrace, 
    shouts of joy will be their lot; 
yes, they will have a double portion 
    in their country 
and everlasting joy will be theirs.
For I am Yahweh: I love fair judgement, 
I hate robbery and wrong–doing, 
and I shall reward them faithfully 
and make an everlasting covenant 
    with them. 
Their race will be famous 
    throughout the nations 
and their offspring 
    throughout the peoples. 
All who see them will admit 
that they are a race 
    whom Yahweh has blessed.}
