Barchot before a
Mitzvoth
Have you ever noticed that there was a very strict commandment given by our Beloved Elohim to Moshe – Moses in Be’midbar – Numbers chapter 6; 23 to 26 and 27?
“Speak unto Aaron and unto his sons, saying: On this wise ye shall bless the Children of Israel; ye shall say unto them: ‘ bless thee, and keep thee; make His face to shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee; lift up His countenance upon thee, and give thee peace”. Vs 23 to 26 “Jewish Publication Society” (JPS).
But take note: It did NOT end there for there was ONE VERY IMPORTANT ADDITION in verse 27!
“So shall they put My Name upon the Children of Israel, and I will bless them.’” Be’midbar - Numbers 6; 23 to 26 and 27.
Thus the formula in Be’midbar 6:23 to 27 ordained
by Elohim, blessed be His Sanctified Name, and transmitted to
the Aaron and his sons by Moshe for the blessing of
Thus we can only invoke His Name first through our Barchot of our Elohim even before we receive His blessing, but the priests and the rabbis were Cursed by Elohim through the Prophet Malachi in chapter 2 for Elohim was angry for He knew their evil hearts, that they and the rabbis were going to remove his Sanctified Name, and thus He cursed them all!
“And now, this commandment is for you, O ye priests. If ye will not hearken, and if ye will not lay it to heart, to give glory unto My Name, saith of Hosts, then will I send the curse upon you, and I will curse your blessings; yea, I curse them, because ye do not lay it to heart. Behold, I will rebuke the seed for your hurt, and I will spread dung upon your faces, even the dung of your sacrifices.” Malachi 2: 1-3. (JPS).
What we read above is a very sad state of our priests and it did include the rabbis I am afraid, for their occultist Kabblah cult and they commenced not long after the destruction of the Temple in around 69 CE and they even dared to give our beloved faith their new name “Rabbinic Judaism”. We had always been known just as Bnei Yisro’el - or the “Children of Israel”, Thus we became through those priests and rabbis suddenly a man made faith!
How do we use and pronounce His beloved Name? First of all we should only use it only in certain way’s: Prayer, Reading the Torah – Tanakh. And tragically the Occultist Kabbalistic rabbis of ancient times have removed Our beloved Creator’s Name and have replaced it with El, Elohei, or Elohim, or a purposely misspelled the Tetragrammaton version of , in our Torah/Tanakh. In the English translations they used the Pagan tiltles ”The LORD”, which is directly related To BAAL.
“And
Elohim said moreover unto Moshe: ‘Thus shalt
thou say unto the children of Israel: the Elohim of your
fathers, the Elohim of Avraham, the Elohim of Yitzchak, and the Elohim of Ya’akov, hath sent me unto
you; this is My Name Forever - - LeOlam, and this is My memorial unto all
generations” Shemot - Exodus 3:15.
If we choose the letters of “hava” - “to be” and
transpose them on YaH-VH, you will
find that the Sanctified Name of Elohim actually becomes “
Thus the pronunciation of the Elohim’s Name can either be “YaHVaH” or “YaHWaH”,
Blessed be His Sanctified NAME! And I know that both will be pleasing to our Elohim, blessed be He!
But His beloved and MOST SANCTIFIED NAME
should only be used in our Prayers, and reading of His blessed Word, and always
say when using it, , Blessed be His Sanctified NAME.
But beloved, always remember our motto: “The More Torah, the More Life”,

“And thou shalt love thy Elohim with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might.
