Streets of
Torah
How many know that
YHWH does not say or do anything by accident? …that everything in His
Word
has meaning? …Even
colors.
First, some
physics…
White light
consists of all colors. When white light hits an object it interacts with the
electrons of that
object…and its
vibrations project or reflect light outward, and also absorb light.
So, some colors
are absorbed by the object, and some colors are reflected
outwardly.
The color
reflected OUTWARDLY, is the color that we then SEE or PERCEIVE.
Let’s go to the
Word of God.
In Numbers
15:38-39 we find that we are to wear a strand of blue to remind us to keep
God’s
commandments, to
do them.
Blue= Do God’s
Commandment’s
Numbers
15:38-39
follow after
your own heart and your own eyes, which you are inclined to whore after.
(ESV)
So symbolically
blue is associated with the remembering, or act of doing, the law of God, the
Torah, to
do
them.
Gold = Loving
God’s Commandments
In Psalm 19 and
Psalm 119 we find that gold is associated with GOD’S COMMANDMENTS.
Psalm
19:10
More to be
desired are they than gold, even much fine gold; sweeter also than honey and
drippings
Psalm 119:72
The law of your
mouth is better to me than thousands of gold and silver
pieces.(ESV)
Psalm
119:127
Therefore I love
your commandments above gold, above fine
gold.(ESV)
Likewise, in
Revelation 3:18, we are counseled TO BUY GOLD FROM YHWH that has been refined
in
the
fire.
Revelation
3:18
I counsel you to
buy from me gold refined by fire, so that you may be rich, and white garments
so
that you may
clothe yourself and the shame of your nakedness may not be seen, and salve
to
anoint your
eyes, so that you may see. (ESV)
In Revelation
21:21 we find that in the end, we will WALK ON STREETS OF GOLD.
Revelation
21:21
And the twelve
gates were twelve pearls, each of the gates made of a single pearl, and the
street of
the city was
pure gold, like transparent glass.(ESV)
Is this speaking
in only a literal sense? Or does this mean something? What would be the
significance of
walking on
streets of gold? Hang with us for a moment, because this is where it starts to
become
interesting.
GOLD, or the
color yellow, is often referred to as “negative blue light.” Gold REFLECTS
ALL
COLORS with the
exception of BLUE. It absorbs or retains blue.
Gold keeps all
blue inside of itself. Gold does not reflect any blue wavelength.
So, let’s apply
what physics and science knows, along with the symbolism of these colors in
Scripture.
If GOLD RETAINS
BLUE, or keeps all of the blue inside of itself, and blue stands for the
remembering
or doing of God’s
commandments then Yahweh requesting us to be like gold refined in the fire is
to
have the
rememberance of the Torah inside of us. Or, to put another way, to have the Law
of God
written on our
heart. This should sound rather familiar.
Jeremiah
31:33
For this is the
covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, declares
the
Lord: I will put
my law within them, and I will write it on their hearts. And I will be their
God, and
they shall be my
people.
Putting the Law
within us, or the writing of the Law on our heart, is the rememberance of the
Law inside
of us.
Symbolically it is the blue, the rememberance of the Torah, that stays in us,
thus we become like
gold refined in
the fire.
To Learn the
commandments
To Hear
them
To Have them in
our heart.
So Gold is the
Torah inside of us, or the HEARING of the Law of God. Blue reflects the color
blue and
blue and absorbs
gold, the yellow light. Andblue is the OBEY and DO of the Law of God. So,
yellow
is to HEAR the
Law of God and blue is the DOING of the Law of God. To hear and obey is known
as
the SHEMA in
Hebrew which is found in Deuteronomy chapter 6.
Deuteronomy
6:4-9
4 "Hear, O
Israel: The LORD our God, the LORD is one. 5 You shall love the LORD your
God
with all your
heart and with all your soul and with all your might. 6 And these words that
I
command you
today shall be on your heart. 7 You shall teach them diligently to your
children, and
shall talk of
them when you sit in your house, and when you walk by the way, and when you
lie
down, and when
you rise. 8 You shall bind them as a sign on your hand, and they shall be
as
frontlets
between your eyes. 9 You shall write them on the doorposts of your house and on
your
gates.(ESV)
So it is
important to become like GOLD meaning to write the Law of God on our heart, and
likewise, it
is also important
to be like BLUE outwardly like tzitzits and reflect the same Law of God
outwardly to
others by DOING
the Law of God. Thus both colors, yellow and blue, play a critical, symbolic
role in
helping us
understand the purpose of the Law of God. One part of the Law of God is
transform us
inwardly, the
GOLD, and the other is to reflect the Law of God to others as an example for
others to see,
as BLUE.
If GOLD IS THE
RETAINING OF THE LAW OF GOD INSIDE OF US and BLUE IS THE DOING
OF THE LAW OF GOD
OUTWARDLY…Guess what happens when we mix BOTH BLUE AND
YELLOW light
frequencies together…together they become PERFECT, BRILLIANT WHITE LIGHT.
The SHEMA, or “TO
HEAR AND OBEY”, IS THE PERFECT WHITE WAY OF OUR CREATOR. It
is His
righteousness that we become, inside and out. And now you know why white light
is used so
often, in the
Bible, to illustrate this perfection. This is why in the context of telling us
to buy gold from
Yahweh that He
makes mention of clothing ourselves in WHITE garments.
Revelation
3:18
I counsel you to
buy from me gold refined by fire, so that you may be rich, and white
garments
so that you may
clothe yourself and the shame of your nakedness may not be
seen…
The WHITE
GARMENTS, from a physics perspective, is both GOLD and BLUE mixed together. If
we
truly have the
Law of God inwardly, as GOLD if you will, then we would naturally want to DO the
Law
of God, as BLUE
if you will. Making us become clothed in WHITE. Spiritually and
symbolically
speaking, this is
the HEARING and DOING of the Law of God.
This is why James
said what he said in Chapter 1:22
James
1:22
But be doers of
the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves.
(ESV)
We are not to
just be gold, INWARD, but also blue, OUTWARD…and in that, we are then clothed
in
the WHITE
garments of the Word of God so that we will not be found naked and ashamed.
So when Psalm 119
associates gold with the commandments of God, this should all make much
more
sense.
Not only is
gold rare,beautiful, and precious, just like God’s commandments and His
instructions
should be to all
us, but it also retains all the wavelengths of blue, which is God’s
commandments, His
Torah, to do
them.
When Revelation
3:18 says to buy refined gold from YHWH, that means that we are to BUY
HIS
COMMANDMENTS.
When Revelation
21:21 says that we will walk on STREETS OF GOLD for eternity in the
New
Jerusalem that
symbolically means that our hearts are permanently transformed to only have the
Law of
God inside of us
and no longer the law of Sin or the flesh nature. Our desire for eternity will
be to
follow His Torah.
The Streets Of Gold are symbolically the Streets Of Torah. We will be walking
in
His Torah for all
eternity.
And this is all
realized through the wearing of the thread of blue in Numbers 15 detailing to us
that the
color blue is the
act of doing His commandments.
So, if you are
believer, and you do not like all of God’s commandments now, the goal in the end
is that
we will be
walking them perfectly for eternity.
We hope that this
teaching has blessed you, and remember, continue to test everything.
Shalom
Shalom, and
may Yahweh bless you in walking in the whole Word of God.
