orthjbc - 2Peter:3

orthjbc@2Peter:3:1 @ Chaverim, this now is the second letter I am writing to you; in these letters my tachlis is to arouse your sincere levavot by way of tizkoret (note:)reminder(:note):

orthjbc@2Peter:3:2 @ remember the divrei torah having been previously spoken by the Nevi'im haKedoshim and the mitzvot of Adoneynu and Moshieynu spoken by your shluchim.

orthjbc@2Peter:3:3 @ Knowing this first, that during the acharit hayamim there will come letzim (note:)mockers/scorners(:note) mocking, going after their own ta'avot,

orthjbc@2Peter:3:4 @ and saying, "Where is the havtachah (note:)promise(:note) of the Bias Moshiach? From the time Avoteynu fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the Bri'ah Creation."

orthjbc@2Peter:3:5 @ For this is hidden from them (note:)but they want it that way(:note): that the Shomayim existed from long ago and ha'aretz out of mayim and through mayim BIDVAR Hashem NA'ASU "By the word of the L-rd were made"--TEHILLIM strkjv@33:6.

orthjbc@2Peter:3:6 @ Through this very mayim, the tevel (note:)world(:note) of that time perished in the mabbul.

orthjbc@2Peter:3:7 @ But the present Shomayim v'ha'aretz are being reserved by the same Dvar Hashem, being kept for Aish (note:)Fire(:note) for Yom haDin and for the destruction of anshei resha men of wickedness.

orthjbc@2Peter:3:8 @ Chaverim, let not this one thing escape your notice, that KI ELEF SHANIM B'EINECHAH K'YOM (note:)"A thousand years in the eyes of Hashem is like one day"--TEHILLIM strkjv@90:4(:note) and one day like a thousand years.

orthjbc@2Peter:3:9 @ But Hashem is not slow concerning his havtachah (note:)promise(:note), as some consider slowness, but is demonstrating zitzfleisch patience--3:15 toward you, not wanting any to perish but all to come to teshuvah repentance.

orthjbc@2Peter:3:10 @ But the Yom Hashem will come as a ganav (note:)thief(:note), in which the Shomayim with great suddenness will pass away and the elements, burning up, will be destroyed, and the Olam Hazeh and its ma'asim will be found out [BAMIDBAR strkjv@32:23].

orthjbc@2Peter:3:11 @ Als (note:)Since(:note) all these things will thus be destroyed, what kinds of persons ought you to be in hitnahagut conduct that is characterized by kedusha and chassidus,

orthjbc@2Peter:3:12 @ awaiting and hastening the Bias of the Yom Hashem, because of which the Shomayim will be turned into Aish (note:)Fire(:note) and destroyed and the elements set ablaze and melted.

orthjbc@2Peter:3:13 @ But SHOMAYIM CHADASHIM VA'ARETZ CHADASHA [YESHAYAH strkjv@65:17 cf. strkjv@66:22] according to the havtachah (note:)promise(:note) of Hashem we await, in which Tzidkanut Righteousness dwells.

orthjbc@2Peter:3:14 @ Chaverim, als (note:)since(:note) you await these things, be eager to be found by Him in shalom TAMIM U'MUM "unblemished and unspotted" --SHEMOT strkjv@12:5; VAYIKRA strkjv@22:20; YESHAYAH strkjv@53:7-9.

orthjbc@2Peter:3:15 @ And regard the zitzfleisch (note:)patience(:note) of Adoneynu as Yeshu'at Eloheynu. So also our chaver and ach b'Moshiach Sha'ul, according to the chochmah wisdom having been given to him, wrote to you.

orthjbc@2Peter:3:16 @ As also in all his letters speaking in them concerning these things, in which are some things lomdish (note:)intricate and complicated to understand(:note), which those unstable and without da'as twist, as also the other Kitvei Hakodesh, to their own destuction.

orthjbc@2Peter:3:17 @ Chaverim, you therefore, knowing beforehand, guard yourselves lest with the toyus (note:)error(:note) of the mufkarim lawless ones having been led away, you fall from your own stability.

orthjbc@2Peter:3:18 @ But grow in the Chen v'Chesed and Da'as of Adoneinu and Moshieinu, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach Yehoshua. Lo hakavod gam haYom v'gam l'Yom haOlam. Omein.
