Jesus said that all the scriptures spoke of him.[1] When the scriptures speak of others like Adam, Moses and Noah, it is said that they speak of Christ through types; but the study of types is fraught with free-for-all allegory. Surely God did not protect every jot and tittle of his word only to leave it at the mercy of the fickle human mind and heart. Indeed he did not. The literal Bible is written on the 'security paper' of prophetic riddle; a layer of meaning 'hidden from the beginning [2]and revealed after the cross.

This site is dedicated to reading the second book. [3] and the interpretation of it by the Spirit who gave it. [4]

The 'priesthood of the believer' does not grant the individual the right to interpret scripture for himself. [5] but is a demand upon him to intercede or pray for others.
Scripture is properly understood when the Holy Spirit assists you in your studies so that you may see Christ in them all. [6] This is done in a verifiable way so that you may teach others. [7]

It is intended that others feel free to participate by asking questions, and as they become proficient, to spin off their own works or contribute here as members of the "fellowship of the mystery". [8]

I am not referring to Paleo-Hebrew [1], but to the square text. Paleo-Hebrew does not possess the characteristics that will be demonstrated in the square text.

It used to be believed that the Hebrew square test was the language of God. But modern theologians and "scholars" who are hostile [2] to God have persuaded many that the Hebrews wrote their most sacred texts in the language of their enemies while in captivity. This is utter nonsense on it's face.

The 2nd Book [∞]


File:2ndbook.mp4

Two books [∞]


File:2ndbook.mp4

The Bible is written as two books. "Two books" does not refer to the Old and New Testaments, but to the literal record and the "mystery hidden from the beginning" within it.[1]

Normally we say that the Bible has 66 books. This refers to writings by men. When scholars read the Bible, they attempt to interpret the human author's intent for writing.

The second book was written by God by embedding symbols of the cross in the literal writings of men. The meaning of the symbols was not made known until after the cross.

Peter in prison [∞]

Discussion

Acts 12

Luke has hidden a story of Jesus in Acts 12. It meets the definition of sod (pronounced sowd) given by the rabbis: it is hidden in scripture and speaks of Messiah. [2] [3]

  1. ↑ ▸ ± 1Co 2:7 But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, [even] the hidden [wisdom], which God ordained before the world unto our glory:
  2. ↑ ▸ ± Ps 40:7 Then said I, Lo, I come: in the volume of the book [it is] written of me,"
  3. ↑ "Mashiach is the personification of secrecy (sod, which also means the hidden, inner dimension of the Torah and the mysteries of prophecy) - Breslov Center: Breslov Teachings About Mashiach"
Herod

To see the picture, you must connect ideas, not merely words. The verses associated with the ideas below (in the references) concerning Christ do not use the word 'vexed'. But when we read 'vexed' in Acts 12:1, if we meditate upon it, we realize that Jesus had been vexed by two different Herod's; once at the time of his birth, and once at his trial. Jesus said all the scriptures speak of him, so we always ask, "In what way does this speak of Christ?"

Herod vexed the body of Christ [1]
Herod had vexed Christ. [2] [3]
  1. ↑ Ac 12:1 ¶ Now about that time Herod the king stretched forth [his] hands to vex certain of the church.
  2. ↑ Mt 2:13 ¶ And when they were departed, behold, the angel of the Lord appeareth to Joseph in a dream, saying, Arise, and take the young child and his mother, and flee into Egypt, and be thou there until I bring thee word: for Herod will seek the young child to destroy him.
  3. ↑ Lu 23:11 And Herod with his men of war set him at nought, and mocked [him], and arrayed him in a gorgeous robe, and sent him again to Pilate.
The arrest

Connecting the dots concerning the arrests takes more than looking for a common word. Peter was arrested during the "days of unleavened bread". The lazy expositor assumes that the day of unleavened bread are the 'feast of unleavened bread' which takes place after Passover, and the connection to Jesus will never be made. To ensure that we don't misunderstand, Luke tells us that Herod intended to display Peter to the crowds after Easter. [1] The DAYS of unleavened bread occurred before Passover when the Jews sold all their leavening to their non-Jewish neighbors so they could buy it back after Passover.

Peter was arrested the week before Passover [2]
Jesus was arrested the week before Passover. [3]
  1. ↑ Ac 12:4 ... intending after Easter to bring him forth to the people.
  2. ↑ Ac 12:3 And because he saw it pleased the Jews, he proceeded further to take Peter also. (Then were the days of unleavened bread.)
  3. ↑ Mt 26:2 Ye know that after two days is [the feast of] the passover, and the Son of man is betrayed to be crucified.
Two

We have been taught to compare and contrast things. In prophetic riddle, we only compare. Peter was placed between two guards, and Jesus between two thieves. If we get hung up contrasting them, we are distracted that guards and thieves are not alike. The comparison between the two is that in each case they were between two somethings.

Peter was set between two guards [1]
Jesus was set between two (thieves): [2]
  1. ↑ Ac 12:6 And when Herod would have brought him forth, the same night Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two chains: and the keepers before the door kept the prison.
  2. ↑ Mt 27:38 Then were there two thieves crucified with him, one on the right hand, and another on the left.
Light
A light shown in the cell [1]
A light shown (in the tomb):[2]
  1. ↑ Ac 12:7 And, behold, the angel of the Lord came upon [him], and a light shined in the prison: ...
  2. ↑ Mt 27:60 And laid it in his own new tomb, which he had hewn out in the rock: and he rolled a great stone to the door of the sepulchre, and departed.
Poked in the side
Peter was poked on the side [1]
Jesus was poked in the side: [2]
  1. ↑ Ac 12:7...and he smote Peter on the side, and raised him up, saying, Arise up quickly. And his chains fell off from [his] hands.
  2. ↑ Joh 19:34 But one of the soldiers with a spear pierced his side, and forthwith came there out blood and water.
Three barriers
Three barriers to escape (two sets of guards and a gate) [1]
Three barriers to escape (two days in death and the stone which was opened on the third day):[2]
  1. ↑ Ac 12:10 When they were past the first and the second ward, they came unto the iron gate that leadeth unto the city;
  2. ↑ Mt 17:23 And they shall kill him, and the third day he shall be raised again. And they were exceeding sorry.
Self-opened
The gate open by itself [1]
The stone opened itself:[2]
  1. ↑ Ac 12:10...which opened to them of his own accord: and they went out, and passed on through one street; and forthwith the angel departed from him.
  2. ↑ Lu 24:2 And they found the stone rolled away from the sepulchre.
Mary
Peter went to Mary's house [1]
The first person Jesus saw was Mary:[2]
  1. ↑ Ac 12:12 And when he had considered [the thing], he came to the house of Mary the mother of John, whose surname was Mark; where many were gathered together praying.
  2. ↑ Mt 28:1 ¶ In the end of the sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first [day] of the week, came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulchre. Mt 28:8 And they departed quickly from the sepulchre with fear and great joy; and did run to bring his disciples word.
Women ran to tell the disciples
The woman ran to tell the disciples [1]
Mary ran to tell the disciples [2]
  1. ↑ Ac 12:14 And when she knew Peter’s voice, she opened not the gate for gladness, but ran in, and told how Peter stood before the gate.
  2. ↑ Mt 28:8 And they departed quickly from the sepulchre with fear and great joy; and did run to bring his disciples word.
Told she was crazy
She was told she was mad [1]
The woman was told she was crazy:[2]
  1. ↑ Ac 12:15 And they said unto her, Thou art mad. But she constantly affirmed that it was even so. Then said they, It is his angel.
  2. ↑ Lu 24:11 And their words seemed to them as idle tales, and they believed them not.
Another place
When Peter was finished visiting his disciples he went to another place [1]
When Jesus finished visiting with his disciple he went to another place:[2]
  1. ↑ Ac 12:17 But he, beckoning unto them with the hand to hold their peace, declared unto them how the Lord had brought him out of the prison. And he said, Go shew these things unto James, and to the brethren. And he departed, and went into another place.
  2. ↑ Lu 24:51 And it came to pass, while he blessed them, he was parted from them, and carried up into heaven.

The invisible God https://2ndbook.org/w/images/6/62/PP_GOD_The_invisible_God.mp4

Discussion

We are like fish swimming in a stream. We do what we do while God, like the stream, nudges us where he wills. We are in him [1] [2] [3], and we do not see him.

His work is often so subtle we are unaware of his presence and nudging. [4]

Since we cannot see or hear him [5]; how can he make himself known?

He causes the fish to write a book about fish history. This is our literal Bible.

Within it he writes a second book; a mystery, hidden from the beginning.

He makes himself known through the mystery book in prophetic riddle. [6] [7]

Sensus plenior debates [∞]


Discussion

In the last century prominent Theologians and scholars debated sensus plenior. They concluded that they could not read the OT the way Jesus and the apostles did.
"The fact is plain: the Apostle Peter would get an “F” if he preached his Acts 2 sermon in Moody’s class, “Communication of Biblical Truth”. The professor, vigilant to eliminate any interpretation that went beyond the “original authorial intent,” would give the classic critique to the apostle: “this text used out of its context!” Of course, because Peter is an inspired author—in this case a preacher—such an imaginative scenario reveals the despairing gulf between the methods of exegesis of the modern conservative bible student, and the exegetical methods of the NT writers. How do evangelical scholars reconcile this? One on hand, how can they honor the inspired exegesis of the NT writers, and then hypocritically reject the same methodology for themselves? Conversely; how could evangelicals allow an open door for exegesis to turn into a literary or “Spirit lead” Picasso-painting of meaning, significance and application of the Word of God?" - RESEARCH PAPER “The Use of the Old Testament in the New”, David Niblack, BI-422 A.
