Isaiah
30:11
11 Get you out [cuwr] of the way [derek], turn aside [natah] out of
the path ['orach], cause the Holy One [qadowsh] of Israel [Yisra'el] to
cease [shabath] from before [paniym] us. KJV-Interlinear
11 leave the way, turn aside from the path, let
us hear no more about the Holy One of Israel.” ESV
Get out of the
way, is the common statement and complaint of those who view the teaching of
Bible doctrine as an endless and ceaseless stream of repetition, which they don’t
want to hear, and don’t want to be bothered with as far as their life is
concerned.
And what is odd,
is that even though they don’t want you in their way, they will think nothing
of placing themselves, in your way, just to let you know that they are not
interested in your beliefs, and that they believe that your beliefs are wrong.
One would think,
that people who are not interested in Christianity or Bible study, would simply
stay away from it and not get involved. But that is not the case.
Where there is
evil, and evil is the lack of truth or interest in truth, then there is the
ever present pressure to push back against truth and anything or anyone related
to it.
So as Isaiah
states here, negative people will go out of their way to tell the prophets, as
it was back in Isaiah’s day, or instructors, or teachers, or anyone who has
anything to do with the teaching or study of the word of God, that they want
them to go way, to turn aside, to teach them no more.
The holy one of
Israel, is a reference to the Messiah, the Savior, and the one we know as Jesus
Christ, who is all of these. But more than that, the holy one of Israel refers
to the entire content of the Bible, its teachings, its principles, its
precepts, it’s repetitive instruction.
And it is the
continuous repetition and exposure that really gets to them.
Anyone who has a
problem with repetition, has a problem with learning. Because that is the best
way of learning anything. And when you have a problem with learning, then you
simply will not advance in your life, especially your spiritual life.
Learning is our
best way of advancing, of realizing our mistakes and errors, of making
corrections and adjustments, and of moving forward. And anyone who does not
learn in any way, shape, or form, simply stagnates in life.
These
studies are a part of the massive daily study web site at DailyBibeStudy.Org,
and are written, so that you can come to Christ if you have not done so
already, and therefore not be lost forever.
And
if you have already believed in Christ, then these studies are written so you
can learn and understand and grow in your spiritual life, so that you can come
to the full knowledge of Christ, so that you can fulfill your meaning and
purpose in life as God intended for you, and so you can qualify for a
phenomenal eternal reward which you will have forever.
To
ignore this opportunity to pursue a daily study means you will be incomplete,
unfulfilled and you will lose out, big time.
The
Daily Bible Study is online, making it possible as never before in all of human
history, to advance in ones relationship with God, through Christ, and to
complete yourself beyond your imagination.
But
you have to decide to make that commitment.
No one else can study for you.
You have to do that yourself.
