Mathew 10:1 ¶ And when he had called unto [him] his twelve disciples, he gave them power [against] unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal all manner of sickness and all manner of disease.
10:2 Now the names of the twelve apostles are these; The first, Simon, who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother; James [the son] of Zebedee, and John his brother;
10:3 Philip, and Bartholomew; Thomas, and Matthew the publican; James [the son] of Alphaeus, and Lebbaeus, whose surname was Thaddaeus;
10:4 Simon the Canaanite, and Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed him.
10:5 These twelve Jesus sent forth, and commanded them, saying, Go not into the way of the Gentiles, and into [any] city of the Samaritans enter ye not:
10:6 But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
10:7 And as ye go, preach, saying, The kingdom of heaven is at hand.
10:8 Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils: freely ye have received, freely give.
10:9 Provide neither gold, nor silver, nor brass in your purses,
10:10 Nor scrip for [your] journey, neither two coats, neither shoes, nor yet staves: for the workman is worthy of his meat.
10:11 And into whatsoever city or town ye shall enter, enquire who in it is worthy; and there abide till ye go thence.
10:12 And when ye come into an house, salute it.
10:13 And if the house be worthy, let your peace come upon it: but if it be not worthy, let your peace return to you.
10:14 And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear your words, when ye depart out of that house or city, shake off the dust of your feet.
Here Yahshua tells His disciples to go and to preach taking no money, no purse, no wallet (scrip) , no coat, no shoes, no cane, and Yahshua tells His disciples that “the workman is worthy of his meat”. The man who works for Yahweh teaching and spreading His truth is worthy of his wage. The wage being whatever Yahweh gives you back in return in blessings whether it be money or food or both or whatever it may be even with it being bringing more Isrealites to you for you to reach with Yahweh’s truth.
Luke 10:1 ¶ After these things the Lord appointed other seventy also, and sent them two and two before his face into every city and place, whither he himself would come.
10:2 Therefore said he unto them, The harvest truly [is] great, but the labourers [are] few: pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he would send forth labourers into his harvest.
10:3 Go your ways: behold, I send you forth as lambs among wolves.
10:4 Carry neither purse, nor scrip, nor shoes: and salute no man by the way.
10:5 And into whatsoever house ye enter, first say, Peace [be] to this house.
10:6 And if the son of peace be there, your peace shall rest upon it: if not, it shall turn to you again.
10:7 And in the same house remain, eating and drinking such things as they give: for the labourer is worthy of his hire. Go not from house to house.
10:8 And into whatsoever city ye enter, and they receive you, eat such things as are set before you:
10:9 And heal the sick that are therein, and say unto them, The kingdom of God is come nigh unto you.
10:10 But into whatsoever city ye enter, and they receive you not, go your ways out into the streets of the same, and say,
10:11 Even the very dust of your city, which cleaveth on us, we do wipe off against you: notwithstanding be ye sure of this, that the kingdom of God is come nigh unto you.
10:12 But I say unto you, that it shall be more tolerable in that day for Sodom, than for that city.
10:13 Woe unto thee, Chorazin! woe unto thee, Bethsaida! for if the mighty works had been done in Tyre and Sidon, which have been done in you, they had a great while ago repented, sitting in sackcloth and ashes.
10:14 But it shall be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon at the judgment, than for you.
10:15 And thou, Capernaum, which art exalted to heaven, shalt be thrust down to hell.
10:16 He that heareth you heareth me; and he that despiseth you despiseth me; and he that despiseth me despiseth him that sent me.
10:17 ¶ And the seventy returned again with joy, saying, Lord, even the devils are subject unto us through thy name.
Yahshua sends out seventy folks to do Yahweh’s will teaching and spreading Yahweh’s truth and Yahshua tells them not to take anything with them. Yahshua tells them to take no money, no extra clothes, nothing. Yahshua tells them that if and when people recieve Yahweh’s message of truth then sith with these people and eat with them. Yahshua tells these people to not go just from one house to another and to not pay anyone attention who you run into during your travels. Go where Yahweh leads you paying no mind to these people who you run into during your travels for these people whome you run into during your travels are merely going to distract you from doing Yahweh’s will anyway. And when people do not recieve Yahweh’s message of His truth then leave them knocking off even the very dust from your feet which you have collected from them and go to the next house and the next city.
Luke 10:4 Carry * * neither * purse, * nor * scrip, * nor * shoes: * and * salute * * no man * by * the * way.
2Thessalonians 3:1 ¶ Finally, brethren, pray for us, that the word of the Lord may have [free] course, and be glorified, even as [it is] with you:
3:2 And that we may be delivered from unreasonable and wicked men: for all [men] have not faith.
3:3 But the Lord is faithful, who shall stablish you, and keep [you] from evil.
3:4 And we have confidence in the Lord touching you, that ye both do and will do the things which we command you.
3:5 And the Lord direct your hearts into the love of God, and into the patient waiting for Christ.
3:6 Now we command you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye withdraw yourselves from every brother that walketh disorderly, and not after the tradition which he received of us.
3:7 For yourselves know how ye ought to follow us: for we behaved not ourselves disorderly among you;
3:8 Neither did we eat any man’s bread for nought; but wrought with labour and travail night and day, that we might not be chargeable to any of you:
3:9 Not because we have not power, but to make ourselves an ensample unto you to follow us.
3:10 For even when we were with you, this we commanded you, that if any would not work, neither should he eat.
3:11 For we hear that there are some which walk among you disorderly, working not at all, but are busybodies.
3:12 Now them that are such we command and exhort by our Lord Jesus Christ, that with quietness they work, and eat their own bread.
3:13 But ye, brethren, be not weary in well doing.
3:14 And if any man obey not our word by this epistle, note that man, and have no company with him, that he may be ashamed.
3:15 Yet count [him] not as an enemy, but admonish [him] as a brother.
3:16 Now the Lord of peace himself give you peace always by all means. The Lord [be] with you all.
3:17 The salutation of Paul with mine own hand, which is the token in every epistle: so I write.
3:18 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ [be] with you all. Amen. [[[The second [epistle] to the Thessalonians was written from Athens.]]]
In verse 6 here in 2Thessalonians Chapter 3 we are instucted to seperate ourselves from our Isrealite brothers and sisters who do not walk according to Yahweh’s Laws as we have instructed them to do. Verse 10 the work referred to is Yahweh’s work, teaching and spreading Yahweh’s truth. Verse 11 speaks of people who follow us, not teaching Yahweh’s truth but instead being busy with everything else such as the sisters Mary and Martha at the end of Luke chapter 9 or Luke chapter 10. This is just like the people who followed Yahshua for loaves and fishes only. In verse 14 we again are instructed to take notice of who does not obey the words written in these letters which Paul and the other apostles wrote and to not have any company with these people and they will be ashamed but don’t count them as an enemy but rather abonish them as our Isrealite brothers and sisters as they are our Isrealite brothers and sisters as this is explained in the next verse, verse 15.
Mathew 10:17 But beware of men: for they will deliver you up to the councils, and they will scourge you in their synagogues;
10:18 And ye shall be brought before governors and kings for my sake, for a testimony against them and the Gentiles.
10:19 But when they deliver you up, take no thought how or what ye shall speak: for it shall be given you in that same hour what ye shall speak.
10:20 For it is not ye that speak, but the Spirit of your Father which speaketh in you.
10:21 And the brother shall deliver up the brother to death, and the father the child: and the children shall rise up against [their] parents, and cause them to be put to death.
10:22 And ye shall be hated of all [men] for my name’s sake: but he that endureth to the end shall be saved.
Here in Mathew chapter 10 verses 17-22, Yahshua tells us that we will be persecuted for His sake for teaching and spreading His truth. So be ready for that.
Mathew 10:28 And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.
Don’t fear men and women who can kill your flesh but rather fear Yahweh. So when people persecute us for teaching and spreading Yahweh’s truth don’t fear these people.
Mathew 10:32 Whosoever therefore shall confess me before men, him will I confess also before my Father which is in heaven.
10:33 But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in heaven.
10:34 Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.
10:35 For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.
10:36 And a man’s foes [shall be] they of his own household.
10:37 He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me.
10:38 And he that taketh not his cross, and followeth after me, is not worthy of me.
10:39 He that findeth his life shall lose it: and he that loseth his life for my sake shall find it.
10:40 ¶ He that receiveth you receiveth me, and he that receiveth me receiveth him that sent me.
10:41 He that receiveth a prophet in the name of a prophet shall receive a prophet’s reward; and he that receiveth a righteous man in the name of a righteous man shall receive a righteous man’s reward.
Here in Mathew 10:32-41 Yashua tells us that our own household will be our foes. Yashua tells us not to love our families more than Him. Verse 39 refers to us finding our life which Yahweh has chosen us as His favorites to have to teach His truth and to spread His truth for that is the life that Yahweh has chosen us to have.
Praise Yahweh THE MOST HIGH
Yahweh Bless
