Let’s look first at the applicable portion in the Bible:
Revelation 19:11-15. The Heavenly Warrior Defeats the Beast.
(11) “I saw heaven standing open and there before me was a white horse, whose rider is called Faithful and True. With justice he judges and wages war.
(12) His eyes are like blazing fire, and on his head are many crowns. He has a name written on him that no one knows but he himself.
(13) He is dressed in a robe dipped in blood, and his name is the Word of Yah. (14) The armies of heaven were following him, riding on white horses and dressed in fine linen, white and clean.
(15) Coming out of his mouth is a sharp sword with which to strike down the nations. “He will rule them with an iron sceptre.” He treads the winepress of the fury of the wrath of God Almighty.
Now let’s look at it in Essene Book of Revelation (EBoR/ER):
(Here, I am putting the Revelation chapter and verse in brackets to help out.)
(19:11) And I saw Heaven open, and beheld a white horse; And He that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness He does judge.
(19:12) His eyes were like a flame of fire, and on His head were many crowns,
(19:13) And He was cloaked in blazing light and His feet were bare. And His Name is called the Word of Yah.
(19:14) And the Holy brotherhood followed Him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean. And they entered the eternal Infinite Garden, in whose midst stood the Tree of Life. And the rain washed naked throngs came before them, trembling to receive their judgement. For their sins were many, and they had defiled the Earth, yea, they had destroyed the creatures of the land and sea, poisoned the ground, fouled the air, And buried alive the mother who had given them birth.But, I saw not what befell them, for my vision changed,
Here we are now and He’s being given a new name in verse 13 called the Word of Yah with those of the brotherhood following Him also on white horses. However, did you notice the difference or should it be differences - starting from verse 11?
(Rev:) “I saw heaven standing open and there before me was a white horse..” (EBoR:) “And I saw Heaven open, and beheld a white horse;“ It could possibly just be a mistake of not understanding the passage but they are slightly different.
(EBoR:) ‘In righteousness He does judge’ should not be (Rev:) ‘With justice he judges and wages war.’
(Rev:) ‘He has a name written on him that no one knows but he himself.’ Its not here in EBoR.
(Rev:) ‘He is dressed in a robe dipped in blood, and his name is the Word of Yah.‘ That’s not right. It should be: (EBoR:) ‘And He was cloaked in blazing light and His feet were bare. And His Name is called the Word of Yah.‘ No blood and feet bare. No robe either although He is cloaked (quite similar) in blazing light.
We’re beginning to build up a picture of just who is writing this even from a few verses. He makes war. Name only he knows (in total opposition to Yah’s normal open behaviour revealing Himself). Robe dipped in blood. Whoever is writing ‘Revelation’ is blood thirsty and self opinionated. The same theme continues throughout. In the next verse: (verse 14) not the brotherhood but armies of heaven following him. (15) Sharp sword with which to strike down the nations. (15) Fury of the wrath of almighty god. Finally, the birds turn cannibalistic: (21) and all the birds gorged themselves on their flesh. Yuk!
There’s one more dramatic point about the Word of God or more properly I would say the Word of Yah. Look at it in verse 13: “And HE was cloaked in blazing light and His feet were bare. And His Name is called the Word of Yah.“ We’re talking about a person! Not a dead scripture. I know we can’t entirely remove ourselves from “writing” but look at these two Scripture passages from the Essene Gospel of Peace. The first one is from Essene Communions:
"And on the fourth evening after Sabbath (Tuesday), say these words: 'Angel of Power, descend on me and fill with power all my deeds.' I tell you truly, just as there is no life on earth without the sun, so there is no life of the spirit without the Angel of Power. What you think and what you feel, these are like the dead scriptures, which are only words on a page, or the dead speech of dead men. But the Sons of Light will not only think, will not only feel, but will also do, and their acts will fulfil their thoughts and feelings, as the golden fruit of summer gives meaning to the green leaves of spring.” Second is from Book One near the beginning:
“And Yahusha answered: "Seek not the law in your scriptures, for the law is life, whereas the scripture is dead. I tell you truly, Moses received not his laws from Yah in writing, but through the living word. The law is living word of living Yah to living prophets for living men. In everything that is life is the law written.”
They’re both pretty similar. Remember then that the Word of Yah is a person.
