Leaven
Does your Daily bread come by faith, hope and charity, or is it provided by the force, fear and fealty of modern pharaohs like FDR and LBJ and full of leaven of the Pharisees with the sweetness sucked out of it and you back in the Bondage of Egypt?
Leaven
We see in Exodus 12 that the memorial[1] of the Passover would require that the bread eaten would have to be unleavened bread. The word for "unleavened bread or cake" is matstsah[2] MemZtadikHey but the word in verse 15 is maṣṣōwṯ (מַצּ֣וֹת) MemZtadikVavTav. In fact the casual reading of the text by verse 19 there are those that believe that anyone who "eateth that which is leavened, even that soul shall be cut off from the congregation of Israel"
But have the people unmoored the meaning of the ritual making the practices of leaven and unleavend bread into a form of idolatry by worshiping the symbols of corruption. Most commentaries are explaining that leaven was regarded as produced by corruption as is suggested in Exodus 23:18.
"Paul twice quotes the saying, ‘A little leaven leaveneth the whole lump’ (1 Corinthians 5:6, Galatians 5:9), with reference to moral corruption: and in 1 Corinthians 5:7-8, with evident reference to that injunction, bids Christians ‘clear away the old leaven,’ and ‘keep the feast’ of their Passover, Christ (i.e. live the Christian life), with the ‘unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.’"[3]
The sour leaven
Daily bread of Rome and now Herod and the Pharisees was provided in asimilar manner to that of Nimrod and Pharaoh which "sucked the sweetness out of their society while they were in the Bondage of Egypt?
Jesus used the term leaven[4] several times in reference to the The leaven of the Pharisees.
It is clearly another of those metaphors built into the Hebrew language and thinking.
Leaven by its nature is something that even in small a quantity, may influence everything. It could be used as a good influence or in a good sense[5] or a pernicious influence or in a bad sense which we see with the leaven of the Pharisees.[6]
A new doctrine
Pharisees were clearly creating new doctrines through false interpretations and their Sophistry for years but it was the Corban of the Pharisees that was truly making the word of God to none effect.
The man made doctrine which strained at gnats swallowed a camel of lies was the result of vanity which caused them to hate the "light" and love the darkness. Their heart were as hard as that of the pharaoh and they would not let the people go out of their civil law contract with the public religion at the temples built by Herod.
The citizens of Judea had become members of a welfare system funded by forced offerings rather than the freewill offerings of Moses. This had been done through a new program where membership was recorded through the Baptism of Herod. No one was allowed to leave those systems until the Pharisees were so angry with Jesus that they made a law that would thrust them out.[7]
Their pride in their doctrines allowed took their ability to see the truth away from them. This blindness to the truth required them to put an emphasis on rituals and form, words and phrases which they saw in the letter of the scriptures with their limited understanding but failed to attend to the weightier matters.
They often did this by denying alternative uses and meaning of Hebrew words or by altering their meaning through Sophistry. They had offered a New Deal through the government of Herod to provide that public religion which Christ would forbid for his followers.[8]
That is hard for many to understand because they read the text of the Bible in the shadow of the tree of knowledge. This may be better understood if we look at the origin of the word from which we get the term leaven.
Double Tzadik
There are numerous double letters that are arranged in the Hebrew text and this is said to include the double Tzadik which would appear as matsats[9] in the Bible as the root word of a very common word that represents something we can physically have in our house, our hand and our food but actually also represents a moral idea or concept that is intrinsically related to covetous practices and corruption.
Isaiah 66:11 "That ye may suck, and be satisfied with the breasts of her consolations; that ye may milk out <04711>, and be delighted with the abundance of her glory."
It should also be noted that in the actual text where this Hebrew word matsats[9] is said to appear it is not written with its double Tzadik but as tāmōṣṣū or TavMemTzadikVav (תָּמֹ֛צּוּ).
The letter צ ץ Tzadik is always related to The Faith of the Righteous One, the foundation of the word "to hunt" or Harvest even eat or desire. [Harvest, pant, desire] (Numeric value: 90)
If double letters are often a reference to the spirit and truth dynamic of a cause and effect universe where the spiritual and physical realms echo evidence of the singularity of creation and the God of creation then what does a double Tzadik indicate?
A key to understanding the dynamics of the double Tzadik is to know that the word matsats which appears only this once in the Bible is also the root word for the term leaven or matstsah[2].
We may ask why but again Hebrew is composed of letters that have meanings and if we alter the letters we may be altering the use of the word and its meaning. It may require a different way of thinking about language as something not merely composed of symbols and their meanings but with a more spiritual dynamic.
Is it clearly understood in the teachings of Moses that yeast in the bread at Passover is only part of a rituals and ceremonies which is meant to warn us about the spirit the leaven symbolizes in that root word matsats[9] which is written by letters in the text representing a source of spiritual corruption "in the sense of greedily devouring (the) sweetness" of something.
We need to be finding out if there is spiritual corruption found in our our practices of our daily ministration that is sucking out the sweetness of our soul and the soul of society?
Those who unmoor meaning from their forms of rituals and ceremonies strangle the spirit that gives life and fall into a prison where the letter killeth.[10] But those who read the text with the light of the Holy Spirit, instead of in the shadows of the tree of knowledge, may be guided through the currents and eddies of language of definitions and dogma. It may also be significant to note that the verb preceding it which is anog[11] AyinNunGimel (עָנַג) but what we see in the text is wəhiṯ‘annaḡtem VavHeyTavAyinNunGimelTavMem (וְהִתְעַנַּגְתֶּ֖ם).
These two words have numerous additional letters including the appearance of three Tavs. Moses only uses the word anog[11] once and not in a good sense.[12] but in Isaiah 66:11 the term is surrounded by the letter of faith which flows in in a process of sacrifice.
These that are blessed in these verses 10 through 14 stand in contrast to those earlier in verses 3 and 4,[13]
Do these same principles apply to the rituals and ceremonies of circumcision of the flesh and circumcision of the heart?
No new doctrine of God
There is no new doctrine of God for God, the will of God and Right Reason are the same today as it was yesterday.
The creation of new doctrines with often fictional and private interpretations by the pharisees was part of what Jesus meant when he referred to the need to "Beware of the Leaven of the Pharisees[6] which through their Corban would make the word of God to none effect.
What is the leaven and corban of your house?
Listen to the Leaven of blood.
