Do supernatural powers rule over us?

( 241 ) Ro 5:19 For as by one man's disobedience many were made sinners , so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous "tsaddiyq".

.. be made straight-path .. Sometimes a translation is misleading... Notice the word "made" sinners...it suggests through Adam's sinning all other humans are made into sinners hence we are born sinners...does the verse really say this ? No

Listen to the Greek.... Ro 5:19 For "gar" as "hosper" by "dia" one "heis" man's "anthropos" disobedience "parakoe" many "polus" were made "kathistemi" sinners "hamartolos", so "houto" "kai" by "dia" the obedience "hupakoe" of one "heis" shall "kathistemi" many "polus" be made "kathistemi" righteous "dikaios" "straight - pathed".

The Hebrew here refers to three main points... sinners = "chata" righteous or "straight - pathed" = ""tsaddiyq" The Greek word "kathistemi" is more difficult to find the correct Hebrew. First I find all verse that use "kathistemi". Next I look up all verses for cross references to Hebrew verses that a quoting the exact same words from the OT into the NT. I do this because I have assumed the Greek was a translation from the Hebrew, so a technique will always work.

Here is a good link....Ac 6:3 Wherefore, brethren, look ye out among you seven men of honest report, full of the Holy Ghost and wisdom, whom we may appoint over this business.

I note the Hebrew reference...

De 1:13 Take you wise men, and understanding, and known among your tribes, and I will make them rulers over you.

This is the Hebrew word "ro'sh" (Strongs 7218).

There are other Hebrew words for "rulers" or "ruling"

  • (1) Mashal : � ����� Strongs 4910
  • (2) Nashaq : � ����� Strongs 5401
  • (3) Shapal : � ����� Strongs 8199
  • (4) Radah : � ����� Strongs 7287
  • (5) Mimshal : � ����� Strongs 4474
  • (6) Rosh : � ����� Strongs 7218.

    Have I found the correct Hebrew word, for the Greek ?

    Looking up all the Greek verses to "kathistemi" the word means to "rule" to establish a power to "rule" over another power or Realm ... The word does not really mean to "make"....

    ��� "head-leader" "Strongs 7218" The pictograph reads "The head of man strong & pressed". The idea of "rosh" is the "head leader" the appointed ruler over you, a pastor, priest, governor, government authority, or ruler.

    Putting these three Hebrew terms together, the Verse means:-

    Ro 5:19 For as by one man's disobedience many were ruled "rosh" sinners "chata" , so by the obedience of one shall "rosh" ruling, many be ruled "rosh" righteous "tsaddiyq" .

    Notice how the correct Hebrew changes the meaning of application. When Adam sinned a change in rulership occurred. Satan became ruler of planet earth, the head leader, the other unfallen beings must have gasped when Adam gave up his rights to rule his kingdom.

    But when Jesus died on the Cross, a change of rulership occurred. Jesus is the prince of this world!!! praise GOD !!! Not Satan any longer.

    Satan know his ruling days are over, so He goes about as a raging lion bent on killing as many as he can out of revenge and spite.

    ( 242 ) Ro 7:12 Wherefore the law is holy , and the commandment holy , and just "tsaddiyq", and good .

    .. holy and straight-path ..

    ( 243 ) Ga 3:11 But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God , it is evident : for , The just "tsaddiyq" shall live by faith .

    .. it is evident for The straight-path ..

    ( 244 ) Eph 6:1 � Children , obey your parents in the Lord : for this is right "tsaddiyq".

    .. Children , obey your parents in the Lord for this is the straight-path ..

    ( 245 ) Php 1:7 � Even as it is meet "tsaddiyq" for me to think this of you all , because I have you in my heart ; inasmuch as both in my bonds , and in the defence and confirmation of the gospel , ye all are partakers of my grace . {I have...: or, ye have me in your heart} {of my...: or, with me of grace}

    .. straight-path ..

    ( 246 ) Php 4:8 Finally , brethren , whatsoever things are true , whatsoever things are honest , whatsoever things are just "tsaddiyq", whatsoever things are pure , whatsoever things are lovely , whatsoever things are of good report ; if there be any virtue , and if there be any praise , think on these things . {honest: or, venerable}

    .. whatsoever things are straight-pathed, think on these things ..

    ( 247 ) Col 4:1 � Masters , give unto your servants that which is just "tsaddiyq" and equal ; knowing that ye also have a Master in heaven .

    .. your servants that which is straight-path ..

    ( 248 ) 2Th 1:5 � Which is a manifest token of the righteous "tsaddiyq" judgment of God , that ye may be counted worthy of the kingdom of God , for which ye also suffer :

    .. is a manifest token of the straight-path ..

    ( 249 ) 2Th 1:6 Seeing it is a righteous thing "tsaddiyq" with God to recompense tribulation to them that trouble you ;

    .. straight-path ..

    ( 250 ) 1Ti 1:9 Knowing this , that the law is not made for a righteous man "tsaddiyq", but for the lawless and disobedient , for the ungodly and for sinners , for unholy and profane , for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers , for manslayers ,

    .. made for a righteous straight-path ..

    There are many things here Paul is saying about the Torah or teachings. He is saying the Torah is only for the wicked those who are disobedient to the teachingsof Jesus, need the torah to bring them into the straight path so they can receive the flow of good things from Jesus once again. In this way the torah is a tutor to bring us to Jesus.

    But again the teachings are for the straight-path as well for in them another dimension of teachings, a whole new world of principles of relationships, to our Saviour that the mere negatives of the Torah spell out.
