Preservação das escrituras
A Palavra de Deus permanece para sempre. As Escrituras foram preservadas por Deus ao longo dos milênios para instrução, consolação e guia de todas as gerações.
A Palavra eterna
Céus e terra passarão, mas as palavras de Deus jamais passarão. Sua Palavra é eterna, infalível e imutável — a verdade que sustenta tudo.
Shomayim v’HaAretz will pass away, but my Dvar will by no means pass away.
For, omein, truly I say to you, until Shomayim and haaretz pass away, not one yod, not one tag (ornamental flourish), will pass from the Torah until everything is accomplished.
The khatzir withereth,
the tzitz falleth;
but the Devar Eloheinu shall stand forever.
For, All flesh is grass and all of [mankindʼs] glory is like the flower: the grass withers, the flower falls, But the Word of our G-d stands forever. And this is the Dvar proclaimed to you as the Besuras HaGeulah [in Moshiach].
You have been given a new birth, not from perishable zerah (seed), but zerah that is without shachat (corruption), through the Dvar Hashem who is Chai v’Nitzav l’Olam (living and remaining firm forever). For, All flesh is grass and all of [mankindʼs] glory is like the flower: the grass withers, the flower falls, But the Word of our G-d stands forever. And this is the Dvar proclaimed to you as the Besuras HaGeulah [in Moshiach].
A inspiração divina
Toda Escritura é inspirada por Deus. Homens santos falaram da parte do Senhor, e a Palavra escrita é a expressão fiel da vontade divina.
Knowing this first: that every nevu’ah (prophecy) of the Kitvei Hakodesh is not of the prophetʼs own explanation. For no nevu’ah was at any time brought by the ratzon HaBnei Adam (will of Man), but men being carried along by the Ruach Hakodesh spoke from Hashem.
In many and various drakhim (ways) Hashem in amolike times (olden times) spoke to the Avot by the Nevi’im. At the Ketz HaYamim, Hashem spoke to us by HaBen, whom He appointed Bechor of the Bechorah, Yoresh Kol (Heir of All Things), through whom also Hashem BARAH ES HASHOMAYIM V’ES HA’ARETZ; Who being the Shekhinah zohar (brilliance) of Hashem and the exact impress and demut of Hashemʼs essential nature, being, and reality, and sustaining everything by his Dvar HaKo’ach, after he made tihur (purification) of chatta’im (sins), sat down at LIMIN (the right hand) of the Majesty on High.
And the Dvar Hashem did mitgashem (become bodily) and made his Sukkah, his Mishkan (Tabernacle) among us, and we gazed upon his Shekhinah, the Shekhinah of the Ben Yachid from Elohim HaAv, full of Hashemʼs Chesed v’Emes.
I have da’as that, all that HaElohim doeth will endure l’olam; nothing can be added to it, nor any thing taken from it; HaElohim doeth it, that men should fear before Him.
A Palavra como guia e tesouro
A Palavra de Deus é lâmpada para os pés, espada do Espírito e tesouro para o coração. Guardá-la e meditá-la nos protege do pecado.
Thy word have I hid in my lev,
lema’an (so that) I might not sin against Thee.
(For the one directing. Mizmor Dovid)
HaShomayim declare the kavod of G-d;
and the raki’a (firmament) showeth His handiwork.
Yom unto yom uttereth speech,
and lailah unto lailah showeth da’as.
There is no speech nor devarim (language),
where their voice is not heard.
Their measuring line is gone out through kol ha’aretz,
and their words to the end of the tevel (world).
In them hath He set an ohel for the shemesh,
Which is like a choson coming out of his chuppah,
and rejoiceth as a gibbor to run a race.
Its going forth is from the end of HaShomayim,
and its circuit unto the ends of it;
and there is nothing hid from the heat thereof.
The torah of Hashem is temimah,
converting the nefesh,
the edut of Hashem is ne’emanah,
making wise the simple.
For the oppression of the aniyim,
for the groaning of the needy,
now will I arise, saith Hashem;
I will set him in safety from him that sneers at him.
The words of Hashem are amarot tehorot (pure words);
as kesef refined in the furnace on the earth,
purified seven times.
But what does it say? "The Dvar is near you, in your MOUTH and in your HEART." That is, the Dvar of Emunah which we proclaim.
So, then, emunah comes from hearing, and hearing comes through the Dvar HaMoshiach.
But I say, is it the case that they have not heard? On the contrary: Their sound has gone out into all the earth and their words to the ends of the inhabited world (Ps 19:4).
For as much as was written beforehand was written for our limudei kodesh, in order that through savlanut and through the nechamah of the Kitvei Hakodesh we might hold fast tikvah (hope).
And these devarim, which I command thee today, shall be in thine lev; And thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy banim, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine bais, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up. And thou shalt bind them for an ot upon thine hand, and they shall be as totafos (ornaments), Shabbos 57a between thine eyes. And thou shalt write them upon the mezuzot of thy bais, and on thy she’arim.
And to have da’as of the ahavah of Moshiach, which ahavah surpasses da’as, in order that you may be filled to all the melo (plentitude) of Hashem.
This is good and acceptable before Hashem Moshieinu, Who wants kol Bnei Adam to have Yeshu’at Eloheynu (the Salvation of our G-d) and to come to da’as HaEmes (knowledge of the truth).
