5 There was in the days of Herod, the king of Judaea, a certain priest named Zacharias, of the course (bloodline) of Abia: and his wife was of the daughters (bloodline) of Aaron, and her name was Elisabeth.
Commentary
The time frame of Christ birth was during the reign of king Herod who was a power hungry envious Jewish king very protective of his power and control seat.
Entering the scene is Zacharias a priest and his wife Elizabeth. Both were from the records kept of the priest bloodlines of Abia, and her from Aaron. God is bloodline aware and calculating. Why even the hairs on our head he counts and calculates. God knows all of us so well. He can trace all of us thru DNA roots, mixing's and measures starting at the blood of Adam the first man. As it is written in the book of Acts, "From the blood of one man God brought forth all men and all the nations.
God made one man and by that one mans blood came forth all the races and the physical external things that distinguish each race from the other. Adam had the awing mighty DNA mix of all of us and of all the races in his incredible cellular vast and massive information base. All of our common likeness and all of our racial or external differences, and our dispersement into the various places into the four corners of the earth was Gods own original design and plan as we replenished the earth.
In those dispersed places, as we (the sons of God) visited each other in our positioned places in this world, our racial differences were supposed to be a beautiful thing and joyfully celebrated. Our external differences and looks were never supposed to be a subject for arguments, or for strife, hate, or a means or cause for division in an evil sense. All our racial external differences were meant to add beauty and flavor to our fellowship as we loved one another and as we loved our neighbor in all the nations as our self. That was Gods original intent for all our external differences as we fellowshipped with one another with hearts full of Christ perfect love.
But sin (Adams disobedience that effected us all with a transforming warping curse), his sin wrecked paradise and it wrecked the spirit and nature of perfect love that we originally were created with in our hearts. His sin (Adams sin) ruined paradise and it ruined the paradise level of love and fellowship of what was supposed to be the beautiful fellowship and brotherhood of man with man and of man with God his Maker. Love has surely seen some better days on earth.
Now in this present evil world the races that were meant to add their special and unique color and beauty and flavor to the holy fellowship of men, they are now mixing blood. This is not forbidden and this is not sin, however it is never to dissolve the pure blood line of any race.
Remember in our text how God, yes God himself keeps track of our blood lines. To the Lord such has a holy and sacred place and should be noted. Your difference from me and my differences from you externally is of God. They are God designed and God made and are to God equally beautiful.
Satan as always is trying to pervert the right ways and plans and words and designs of the Lord. Satan wants to inter mingle and mix all the races on such a massive scale until Gods original plan of our unique differences is removed and greatly distorted. Lucifer wants to mix all the bloodlines of men so much that there remains no more any pure blood lines. This is not what God wanted. If He did not intend for pure blood lines to arrive and be upon the earth, then He would have made all of us the same blood mix with no racial or external differences. But it seems that the Lord thought it to be more colorful and better for us and more beautiful to bring forth and to maintain our differences in the holy fellowship of men with men and man with God on this planet that He gave us.
The way the world is mixing bloodlines today is no sin and it is by no means forbidden, but it is to be of such low percent as to never threaten pure bloodlines. Satan wants to mix the blood lines by so much blood mixing until we are all mixed up and even more messed up. It is the demonic way.
Now can races mix in marriage? Yes they can for the seed itself permits it and such is not unholy, but such is not to become so massive that Gods original plans for us are distorted. Just like there is never to be allowed a confusion of the male from the female gender though demons seek to form such confusion and distortion in the mind and souls of people to warp Gods original plan. To permit and to allow gender confusion and distortion is led by deceiving sensual demonic spirits and not by the Spirit of the Lord. Man was never allowed by the holy One of Israel to lie with a man in sex as a man does with a woman. Such was called a worse kind of sin and would even curse people and lands. Yet Satan is pushing this perverting agenda of his with sly justifications and he is using souls that are not of the Spirit of God to push such agendas upon the earth.
Solomon was known in his dynasty of rebellion to mix his seed with foreign women. This God commanded he and all the men of Israel not to do. But oh how we are known to want things our way and not Gods way. This mixing caused Israel trouble. Solomon's manifold mixing sins from the flesh and of the spiritual caused the people of Israel much pain in the generations after Solomon's return to dust.
God dealt with Solomon about his hard head and hard heart toward the laws laid out by God. His mixing his seed and blood with foreign gentile women and his mixing his hearts affections with those women's idols got Israel eventually in the hottest of water. Though the troubles mostly came after Solomon was dead and gone, Solomon sowed the seed to those painful troubles that Israel was made to eat of the wrath of God against them for Solomon and their manifold mixing sins of flesh and of spirit. Foreign powers rose up and attacked Israel and brought them down and into bondage and took them to foreign lands. There was little joy in that kind of mixing when they were driven out of the promise land to serve foreign powers in other lands of the similarity of Egypt.
Yes God sparred Solomon the blows of his great mixing sins by His recall of David, the man that was after Gods own heart who was Solomon's father. God laid the punishment for the sins of Solomon upon the next generations.
What we do good or evil folks can effect us and others. Let us be careful what we mix our hearts and our seed with and be wise to what we join ourselves unto. Some things are not approved by God for the mixing. Men mixing with men and women mixing sexually with women are totally God forbid.... Choose Wisely....God is keeping track as we have discovered in our above text.....verse 6 coming soon.....deno....share freely.
