Exod.24
[1] The LORD (#1) said to Moses: You, Aaron, Nadab, Abihu
and seventy (70) of the Elders of Israel come up to the LORD (#2),
and worship (delight) afar off.
[2] Moses alone shall come near the LORD (#2) but the others shall not come nigh
neither shall the (common) people go up with him.
[9] Then Moses, Aaron, Nadab, Abihu >> (whom Jesus called by their name)
and seventy (70) of the Elders of Israel went up.
[10]They SAW (Jesus) the God of (the nation) Israel (#1)
and there was under his feet like it were a paved work of a sapphire stone,
and like it were the body of heaven in his clearness.
[11] and upon the nobles of the children of Israel he (Jesus) laid not his hand:
they (Moses and company) ALSO SAW GOD (#2 the Father) and ate and drank
They have knowledge of TWO LORDS like David did.
Exod.34
[5] The LORD (#1 Jesus) descended in the cloud, and stood there with Moses,
and (the LORD Jesus #1) proclaimed the name (the character) of the LORD (the Father #2)
[6] and the LORD (#1) passed by before Moses and proclaimed:
The LORD (#2) The Lord GOD,
merciful and gracious, longsuffering, and abundant in goodness and truth,
[7] Keeping mercy for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin,
and who will by no means clear the guilty.
Visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children
and upon the children's children, to the third and to the fourth generation. (under the first Covenant)
[8] and Moses made haste and bowed his head toward the earth and worshipped.
[9] Moses said:
If now I have found grace in thy sight, O LORD (Jesus),
let my Lord (Jesus), I pray thee, go among us
for it is a stiff necked people and pardon our iniquity and our sin,
and take us for you inheritance (from the Father)
Jesus did the same proclaiming GODs name to his chosen Apostles.
John.17
[5] and now, O Father, (A)
glorify me (B. the Son of man), with (next to) your own self
with the glory that I had (side by side) with you, before the world (of Israel) was (created)
[6] I have manifested (proclaimed like I did for Moses) your name
to the men (the Apostles) whom you gave to me (as inheritance) out of the world (the nation of Israel)
They were yours and you gave them to me (as my heritage)
and they have kept (remembered and obeyed) your (effective) Word.
[7] Now they (the Apostles) have known,
that all things whatever you have given (to) me (the Mighty God of Israel) are of/ from you.
[8] For I (the LORD, the God of Israel) have given to the Apostles the Words (the Doctrine)
that you (the Lord GOD) gave to me
and they have received them and they have known CONFIDENTLY
that I (the LORD from heaven) came out from you (the God of Abraham and of Isaac and of Jacob)
and they have believed that you (the Father) sent me (the Son = the Mighty God)
[9] I (the God of Israel) pray for the Apostles.
I do not pray for the world (the nation of Israel) but for the Apostles whom you have given to me
for they are yours (joint ownership).
[10] All of my (people) are your people and your people are my people
and I am glorified in (fellowship with) them (the Apostles).
[11] and now I am no longer in the world (in the nation of Israel)
but these (Apostles) are in the world (among the children of Israel)
and I (your Right Hand, Arm and Hand) come to you.
Holy Father, through your own name,
keep (perfectly joined together) those (Apostles) whom you have given to me (as my inheritance),
so that THEY may be (perfectly joined as) ONE,
like WE (the Almighty and the Lord GOD Almighty) are (perfectly joined as one)
[12] While I was (physically) with them in the (Israelite) world, I have kept them in your name:
Those (Apostles) whom you gave to me, (the Mighty One of Israel) I have kept (securely preserved)
and none of them is lost but the son of perdition (the unfaithful betrayer because of money)
so that the Scripture (of the Prophets) might be fulfilled.
[13] and now I (your Arm) come to you
and I say these things in the world,
so that they (the Apostles) might have joy about who I (the Mighty God) am fulfilled in themselves.
[14] I (your mouth) have given (to) them your (effective, dividing) Word.
and the world (the nation of Israel) have hated them (the chosen),
because they are not of the world (of the Tradition of the Elders)
even as I (your beloved, dignified, Son) am not of the world (of Judaism)
[15] I do not pray that you should take them out of the world (to heaven)
but that you should keep (protect) them from the evil (outsiders of the flock).
[16] They are not of the world (of the Tradition of the Elders) even as I am not of the world (of Judaism)
[17] Sanctify (separate) them (from the other Israelites of Judaism) through your truth,
Your word is truth.
[18] Similarly like you have (chosen, equipped and) sent me into the world (of Israel)
even so I have also (chosen, equipped and) sent them (the 11 Apostles) into the world (of Israel).
[19] and for their sakes I sanctify (separate) myself (from the other Israelites),
so that they also might be sanctified (separated by knowledge) through the truth (from you the GOD of truth)
[20] Neither do I pray I for these (Apostles) alone,
but for the converts (like us) also, who shall
believe on me (the God of Israel, the only and unique Savior)
through their (the Apostles) Word (and not circumvent the Apostles)
[21] So that they all (the Apostles = Zion and converts)
may be one (perfectly joined in fellowship and also in fellowship with Father and Son)
as you, Father are in (fellowship with) me and I in (fellowship with) you,
that they also may be one in (fellowship with) US (Father and Son).
so that the world (the outsiders) may believe that you have sent me (the Christ).
[22] and the glory (the magnificence) that you gave to me (the LORD Isa.60:1)
I have given to (shared with) them (the Apostles)
so that they may be one, (in perfect fellowship)
even similarly like WE (the Son, the God of Israel (B)
and (A) the Lord GOD, the Father) are one (perfectly joined in a loving fellowship)
[23] I in (fellowship with) them and you in (fellowship with) me,
so that they may be made perfect (perfectly joined) in one (loving fellowship)
and that the world (of Israel) may know
that you (the GOD of Abraham and of Isaac and of Jacob have sent me (down from heaven),
and that you (the Father) have loved them (the Apostles, your earthly sons)
to the same degree that you have loved me (your beloved, only begotten, heavenly Son).
[26] I (the LORD, the God of Israel) have declared to them (the Apostles) your name (like I did for Moses),
and I will declare it,
so that the (same degree of) love that you (the Highest) have loved me (your beloved Son)
may (also) be in them (in their hearts for me) and I in (fellowship with) them.
Moses, the 3 Priests and the Elders of Israel, initially knew about the Father and his Son.
Moses Ministry was limited to the teaching about One God = Jesus.
If we remain unbiased, then we begin to understand that some Gnostics who had knowledge
may have been correct BUT they were killed (contrary to Jesus) and called Heretics, to this day.
We are taught to consider all Gnostics as evil.
Christians are people of knowledge.
