Isaiah 55. 8-11
8 For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD.
9 For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.
10 For as the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, but watereth the earth, and maketh it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater:
11 So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.
God had made him a ruler over his senior brother, even from his mother’s womb. From him came the twelve tribes of Israel who Supplanted in his mother’s womb. But God Himself changed Jacob to Israel, Father of many. Out of the twelve tribes of Israel came Judah whose tribe God made a “set apart” Why is God the creator of all things so particular about these two words SET APART? Yes I can tell you what God told me. First, this method of God making something a “set apart “ started in the book of Genesis, also in Exodus 30. 34- 38
The Israelis were a “set apart” from the Egyptians for God served “ set apart” them from the time that they came from Canaan to Egypt and lived there for 430 years. Even during the Ten plaques of Egypt that almost destroyed the Egyptians.
Everything that has to do with the Tabernacle were “set apart” for God, even all the workers in the Tabernacle.
34 And the LORD said unto Moses, Take unto thee sweet spices, stacte, and onycha, and galbanum; these sweet spices with pure frankincense: of each shall there be a like weight:
35 And thou shalt make it a perfume, a confection after the art of the apothecary, tempered together, pure and holy:
36 And thou shalt beat some of it very small, and put of it before the testimony in the tabernacle of the congregation, where I will meet with thee: it shall be unto you most holy. “SET APART”
37 And as for the perfume which thou shalt make, ye shall not make to yourselves according to the composition thereof: it shall be unto thee holy “SET APART” for the LORD.
38 Whosoever shall make like unto that, to smell thereto, shall even be cut off from his people.
