| Q8: How does Ellen White record the meaning of "host"?
(13) : "tsaba" : Army. Hypothesis: Does Ellen White record the Ancient Hebrew meaning of "host" ? Introduction:
The ancient Hebrew reads "Travelling home strong" > Jeff Benner describes the meaning of "host" as "army". This word comes with both verb and noun forms spelled exactly the same. Thus, the verb "muster" must also have the same meaning of "mustered" , meaning "those travelling home strong".
Discussion: {DA 352.2} Their warfare is not to be waged against flesh and blood, but "against the principalities, against the powers, against the world rulers of this darkness, against the spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places." Ephesians 6:12, R. V. They are to contend with supernatural forces, but they are assured of supernatural help. All the intelligences of heaven are in this army. And more than angels are in the ranks. The Holy Spirit, the representative of the Captain of the Lord's host, comes down to direct the battle. Our infirmities may be many, our sins and mistakes grievous; but the grace of God is for all who seek it with contrition. The power of Omnipotence is enlisted in behalf of those who trust in God .
Isa 13:6 � Howl ye; for the day of the LORD is at hand; it shall come as a destruction from the Almighty (Shadday).
Note the Holy Spirit does the bidding of Jesus as leader of the army for destruction.
Conclusion: The Bible and the messages of the Holy Spirit recorded by Ellen White are in perfect agreement with each other, conerning the Hebrew meaning of "tsaba", "The mustered ones travelling home strong", or "army". The captain of the heavenly army and their representative are both correctly identified.

Ancient Hebrew reads �Pressed securely homeward�
Jeff Benner suggests this word to mean "return". The Ancient Hebrew pictograph reads "Pressed securely homeward", the idea to return home.
{AH 343.1} Repent before God for your past course... If you welcome the sunshine of His presence into your home, you will not utter words of a nature to cause feelings of unhappiness
{3SP 273.2} But the Holy Ghost sent those arguments home with divine power to their hearts. They were as sharp arrows of the Almighty, convicting them of their terrible guilt in rejecting and crucifying the Lord of glory. "Now when they heard this, they were pricked in their heart, and said unto Peter and to the rest of the apostles, Men and brethren, what shall we do? Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost."
The Hebrew word "pressed securely home" translated as "repent" are correctly pictured by Ellen White as Ancient Hebrew meaning.
