“Eric Strohm and his colleagues at Ryerson University in Toronto, Canada, showed that when struck with a laser beam, red blood cells emit sound waves — albeit of a frequency too high for human ears to hear.”
God is a Spirit, and He can Hear the cry of Blood. “The voice of your brother’s blood cries out to Me from the ground.” (Gen. 4:10). We hear the CRY of the Martyrs in Revelation- “When He opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of those who had been slain for the word of God. And they cried out in a loud voice, “How long, O Lord, holy and true until You judge those who dwell upon the earth and avenge our blood?” (Revelation 6:9-10)
The Messiah speaks concerning blood and bloodshed in Matthew 23. The scene opens with elite men standing in front of the greatest prophet ever to live. Those in authority, the Torah experts, the Scribes, and the Pharisees, are looking at the Son, but they don’t see Him. Further, these men have never been spoken to by someone with such authority and truth, but they will not RECEIVE Him or correction:
“I have come in my Father’s name, and you do not receive me; if another comes in his own name, him you will receive.” (John 5:43)
The Messiah is a teacher for teachers. He is the Master of wisdom, knowledge, and understanding, but the “wisest” men in the area see Him as a man worthy of mocking and worse. Yet God chooses the foolish things of the world so He might put to shame the wise.
I’ve added some of our Master’s descriptions of what “they” “DO” taken from Matt 23:
- They bind heavy burdens, hard to bear.
- They do all their work to be seen by men.
- They love the best places at feasts and the best seats in the assembly/synagogue.
- They love greetings and to be called rabbi or “masters” of the Torah/Bible in public.
- They eat up widows’ houses and, for a show, make LONG prayers.
- They go about the land and the sea to win one convert, and when he is won, they make him a son of hell/ Gehenna.
- They have neglected the weightier matters of the law: ( Torah) “justice and mercy and faithfulness.”
- They are blind guides!
- They strain out a gnat but swallow a camel.
- They shut the kingdom of heaven in men’s faces.
Now, the exercise we must all do involves asking ourselves if we “do” any of the same things listed above. Do we neglect weightier matters—justice, mercy, faithfulness—mišpāṭ and ṣedeq? Orphans, widows, and the poor? Do we desire the best seats? Do we want people to refer to us as Masters of His Word or look up to us because of our “ knowledge”?
While meticulously observing the law and ceremoniously straining out a tiny unclean critter, the Pharisees ultimately swallow a larger unclean animal—rendering themselves unclean despite their attention to the minutia of the law, but missing the essence of the law—”judgement, mercy, and faith” (Mt 23:23).

Have we left our first love and instead are dead inside like the white-washed tombs—a warning sign for all who passed by traveling for the feasts? The Messiah’s following speech in Matthew 23 is grievous. The scene is like a movie. Only the Messiah is not giving a speech like John F Kennedy, Winston Churchill, or Martin Luther King. He is the Anointed One. His words in Matthew are some of the most grievous ever spoken.
Those standing before Jesus/ Yeshua know about lambs. They are experts and considered Torah/ Bible scholars. But with all their knowledge and oral traditions, they had venom, jealousy, fear, and hatred coming from their kidneys and their hearts in such severity that they needed an ambulance and medics to bring hyssop and castor oil, a heart circumcision, but they could not hear. They could not see. They will not receive HIM. The spotless LAMB was standing before the most intelligent people in the courtyard, but they did not draw near to Him. Their hatred was so thick, so tangible, and their desire to be “ right” and to falsely accuse the Messiah and look for ways to catch Him in something… all these things became contagious.
They will join together, unified, full of fear, bent on murder until eventually they will cry out, “Crucify Him! … and also, “May His BLOOD be on us and our children!”
BLOOD. It becomes a theme in our story.
Yeshua continues:
“I send you prophets, and wise men, and scholars of Scripture. Some of them you shall kill and impale, and some of them you shall flog in your congregations and persecute from city to city, so that on you should come all the righteous BLOOD shed on the earth, from the BLOOD of righteous Heḇel (Abel) to the BLOOD of Zeḵaryah, ( Zachariah ) son of Bereḵyah, whom you murdered between the Dwelling Place and the altar.Truly, I say to you, all this shall come upon this generation.”
Wait! What?? All the BLOOD will fall on this generation. Is Yeshua prophesying 70 A.D?
God’s people will declare, “we have no king but Caesar.”
When Jesus/ Yeshua states that His people stone the prophets, Stephen has not died yet by way of stoning, but he will. And those who are stoning will lay their BLOODY garments at the feet of Paul. Paul will have to BECOME BLIND IN ORDER TO SEE.
The rabbis state that no one picked up stones but, at first, threw their victim off a cliff, turned him or her over, checked for breathing, and, If still alive, the person’s accusers would lay heavy stones on the chest until death occurred. When we investigate, we learn that Stephen says almost verbatim what Yeshua/Jesus said:
- Stephen discusses the Tabernacle and how God does not dwell in houses made by human hands. He then calls them stiff-necked.
- Stephen accuses them of resisting the Holy Spirit and being uncircumcised in hearts and ears.
- Stephen states they are murderers who killed the prophets: Which of the prophets did your fathers fail to persecute? They even killed those who foretold the coming of the Righteous One. And now you are His betrayers and murderers— 53you who received the law ordained by angels, yet have not kept it.”
- Stephen accuses them of having murdered Yeshua/Jesus (from v52).
- Stephen accuses them of breaking the law/Torah (from v53).
- Stephen points out their star and the god of Moloch they worship.
How could Stephen suffer the same resistance? They placed their fingers in their ears. Oh, how many times have we become angry at the truth, staring us right in the face and plugging up our ears, forbidding to listen? For more information on the kidneys and the ears, click HERE.
Turn on the news today, and there are killings all over the world. Genocides. Bombs. Starvation. Hostages. destruction.
We have Men who long for land and ownership. They enjoy maps. They enjoy stating that certain areas on the map are theirs or will be, even changing the names to ensure ownership. The Creator of ALL owns all the cattle on all the hills, and He must be weeping just as Messiah wept over His people. Political powers hold secret meetings and keep the truth from the people. Jezebel longs to steal the righteous vineyards, so she pays for witnesses to tell lies. Nothing’s changed. Blood is crying out. Bloody wars. Weapons of destruction are not yet gardening tools. The earth is crying out. The earth is sick with bloodshed, and do we look away and stay silent? Do we pick a team and justify blood? Blood that cries and has a vibration. May we hear it.
“Gaza’s Government Media Office updated its death toll to more than 61,700, saying thousands of Palestinians missing under the rubble are presumed dead. At least 1,139 people were killed in Israel during the Hamas-led October 7, 2023, attacks, and more than 200 were taken captive.”
Would our Messiah go to a well in Palestine for water? Would He preach the Good News there? Would He bind up the broken? Would He heal the lepers? Is our nation not leprous? Oh, Father, MERCY!
Are Palestinians Amalek? No, nor are they Esau.
They are human beings. With careful research, you will uncover the truth. Below is a link for Hebrew for Christian’s concerning Amalek.

Right now, we have unrighteous leadership, mostly all over the world. The Bible states over and over again that this is the issue. One King shed so much innocent blood, it was a river.
“Blood Moreover, Manasseh shed so much innocent blood that he filled Jerusalem from end to end, in addition to the sin that he had caused Judah to commit, doing evil in the sight of the LORD.” (II King 21:16).
Notice that it is the rulers, principalities, and powers, those in control, who cause us to err.
But Manasseh led the people of Judah and Jerusalem to do even more evil than the pagan nations that the LORD had destroyed when the people of Israel entered the land. II Chronicles 33:9.
So much blood, and yet, the Blood of One spotless Lamb came to set us free. He said that if we had hatred in our hearts, we just as same committed murder. Yeshua taught us to love even our enemies. Can you pray for Israel and their families and the hostages and also pray for the Palestinians? Women and little children with no food, water, electricity and not even anything to numb their pain during amputations—Human beings, and also created in the image of God. Please see the following videos, voices crying out concerning Blood THAT IS CRYING OUT. May we tune into His frequency. May we pray for those suffering in Africa, Ukraine, Russia, and may it never be said at our deaths that we were hard hearted towards those who cannot defend themselves.
May it not be said that Amalek’s spirit lived in us or hatred, but compassion for all those suffering.
blessings,
