2 Peter 1:4
Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)
“4 By these ‘He’ [ha-‘Iysh: the-Steward, the-Worthy, etc..] has given us very great and precious promises, so that through them you may share in the ‘divine nature’ [YHWH: Name, Word and Works, of Israel’s /Abraham’s ‘Elohiym – of the heavens], escaping the corruption that is in the ‘world’ [chedel: rest, state of the dead, etc..] because of ‘evil’ [bliya’al: worthless(-ness), unrighteous[ness], ung-dly (to be unlike YHWH ‘elohiym), etc.] ‘desires’ [tav: signature[s], mark[s], etc..].
Salvation’s message?
Don’t wear the Mark of the Beast, turn away from the ‘world’ (chedel: the state of the dead, [the] rest, etc..), be born again into, “the way, the truth and the life”; in YH’shua’s example!
‘Amein’ (So be it, Truth, etc..)
Strong’s Hebrew Lexicon:
He: 376 ‘iysh eesh contracted for 582 (or perhaps rather from an unused root meaning to be extant); a man as an individual or a male person; often used as an adjunct to a more definite term (and in such cases frequently not expressed in translation):–also, another, any (man), a certain, + champion, consent, each, every (one), fellow, (foot-, husband–)man, (good-, great, mighty) man, he, high (degree), him (that is), husband, man(-kind), + none, one, people, person, + steward, what (man) soever, whoso(-ever), worthy. Compare 802.
World: 2309 chedel kheh’-del from 2308; [the] rest, i.e. the state of the dead:–world.
Evil: 1100 bliya`al bel-e-yah’-al from 1097 and 3276; without profit, worthlessness; by extension, destruction, wickedness (often in connection with 376, 802, 1121, etc.):–Belial, evil, naughty, ungodly (men), wicked.
Desire(s):8420 tav tawv from 8427; a mark; by implication, a signature:–desire, mark.
Jesus: 3091 Yhowshuwa` yeh-ho-shoo’-ah or Yhowshua {yeh-ho-shoo’-ah}; from 3068 and 3467; Jehovah-[YHWH-]saved[s]; Jehoshua (i.e. Joshua), the Jewish leader:–Jehoshua, Jehoshuah, Joshua [Jesus]. Compare 1954, 3442.
Amen (Amein): אָמֵן ʼâmên, aw-mane’; from H539; sure; abstract, faithfulness; adverb, truly:—Amen, so be it, truth.
Significance of the Steward’s Name:
YHWH (YH): “Modern scholars generally agree that YHWH is derived from the Hebrew triconsonantal root היה (h-y-h), “to be, become, come to pass”,[3] an archaic form of which is הוה (h-w-h),[4] with a third person masculine y- prefix, equivalent to English “he”. They connect it to [eg.] Exodus 3:14 – [ETC..] where the divinity [‘Elohiym of Israel, YHWH] who spoke with Moses responds to a question about his name by declaring: אֶהְיֶה אֲשֶׁר אֶהְיֶה (Ehyeh asher ehyeh),“I am that I am” or “I will be what I will be”[5](in Biblical Hebrew the form of the verb here is not associated with any particular English tense).[6][7][8]
THE NAME THAT ‘EXPRESSES’ (IS) THE WORD AND WORKS OF ISRAEL’S ‘ELOHIYM:
“I WILL BE WHAT I WILL BE”.
