Divine Decrees
Reading Esther in the comic book edition, I finally got the revelation – the first law was signed and sealed with the King’s signet ring; through the deceit of the serpent, Haman. The second law came after Queen Esther risked her life to approach the King. The second law written gave the people of God the ability to DEFEND themselves. Although the initial law could not be rescinded, a new and better one was given that gave the Jews, the people of God the ability to defend themselves by the new and better law. This new law also gave them the rights to pillage anyone who attacked them. Haman was hanged instead of Mordechai (Mordecai), and the people of God could band together and slay any enemies that tried to kill them AND pillage them. Esther approaching the throne of the King up the Cosmic Weeks, the stairway to the Throne. Anyone who ascends can be put to death unless the King of Righteousness extends His scepter of mercy to them. He does this for those who circumcise their hearts according to His ways. The signet ring, the seal of the King, the signet ring, staff, and cord of Judah to Tamar; the Tree of Life. Elijah the seal of the heavens, and the removal of the old seal, the king of Tyre, “stan” the false ring seal, the fallen seal who used to be perfect and is now the complete opposite of perfect; and the removal of all the principalities and dominions and demons that belong to him and his kingdom of uncircumcision of heart.
Ezekiel 28:12

“Son of man, take up a dirge (funeral poem to be sung) for the king of Tyre and say to him, ‘Thus says the Lord GOD, “You had the full measure of perfection and the finishing touch [of completeness], Full of wisdom and perfect in beauty.

The Book of Esther reveals a profound spiritual truth through the narrative of the two laws enacted under the reign of King Ahasuerus. The first law, influenced by Haman, represents a decree that could not be revoked, symbolizing the unchangeable nature of certain divine laws and decrees. Haman, inspired by the deceit of the serpent, sought to annihilate the Jews, God’s people. However, through Queen Esther’s courageous intervention, a second law was established. This new law empowered the Jews to defend themselves, illustrating the concept of divine protection and the provision of a higher, redemptive law.
Esther’s ascension to the King’s throne is a powerful metaphor for approaching the divine presence. This approach symbolizes the journey of spiritual ascension, where one risks everything to seek the favor and mercy of the King of Righteousness. The extension of the King’s scepter signifies divine grace and acceptance, granted to those who seek to align their hearts with divine ways.
The imagery of the signet ring, staff, and cord of Judah to Tamar links this narrative to the Tree of Life, indicating a deep spiritual lineage and the transfer of divine authority and blessing. The reference to Elijah as the seal of the heavens further ties into this theme of divine authority and the transformative power of divine decrees.
Ezekiel 28:12-19, through its poetic lament for the King of Tyre, provides a vivid contrast between divine perfection and the corruption of pride and sin. The description of the King of Tyre adorned with precious stones and walking among the fiery stones of God’s holy mountain draws a parallel to the initial perfection of creation and the anointed cherub’s fall from grace. This fall, driven by pride and the corruption of wisdom, resulted in the guardian cherub’s expulsion from the holy mount of God and a tragic end.
This passage underscores the spiritual consequences of pride and unrighteousness, contrasting with the humility and righteousness exemplified by figures like Esther and Mordecai. It serves as a reminder of the divine justice that ultimately prevails over deceit and corruption.
In summary, the Book of Esther and Ezekiel 28 together illustrate a powerful message about divine justice, the redemptive power of divine laws, and the transformative journey of approaching the divine presence. Through the narrative of Esther and the lament for the King of Tyre, we see the eternal struggle between righteousness and wickedness and the ultimate triumph of divine grace and justice.
In Haggai 2:23 we read, “‘On that day,’ declares the LORD Almighty, ‘I will take you, my servant Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel,’ declares the LORD, ‘and I will make you like my signet ring, for I have chosen you.’”
Zerubbabel Signet Ring Glory!! The Seal
Pillar of the Seal, Signet Ring of Power (Jachin, Right Pillar, Elijah, Prophet, The Heavens)
‘Your seal and its cord, and the staff in your hand,’ – Tamar
Tamar (Hebrew: תָּמָר) is a female name of Hebrew origin, meaning “date” (the fruit), “date palm” or just “palm tree”.
Palm Tree signifies the Tree of Life
Your Seal and its cord (Elijah) and the Staff in your hand (Moses)
Mountain of Transfiguration, Tree of Life,
From Mt Hermon to Mt Tabor
From the Dead letter that kills to the Living Word of God that heals and restores all
The false seal of lucifer broken off forever at the word of God through your soul, the woman crushing satan underfoot.
Elijah brought judgment upon Jezebel
Jezebel was the daughter of Ethbaal, king of the Phoenician city-state of Tyre, and wife of Ahab, king of Israel (1 Kings 16:31),
The lament over the impending doom of Tyre is a detailed description of what happens when a nation goes against God and his people. The cry of the LORD is, “‘O Tyre, you have said, ‘I am perfect in beauty,’”. Yes, it was a magnificent merchant city where many nations from all over the world traded and transacted business. The economy was booming and great riches were gained. But all of it would be lost because the people were lost in their own vanity and self-sufficiency.
Satan (Tyre) in the past, had claimed the beauty and business pillars (Jachin the pillar of beauty, Boaz the pillar of business) because there were no men or women of God walking in the true righteousness of circumcision of heart. Now that ascension through Cosmic Righteousness is being established, the divine decrees are ringing out through the Cosmos that it is time for the people of God to fight back and take the territory through repentance by circumcising their hearts.
The Glory, Splendor, and source of Beauty is truly the Sun of Righteousness, the Lamb of God and no other. He is the light and He is the source of all true beauty and splendor. He is our protection and the walls of Jerusalem.
Zechariah 2:5
NASB 1995
‘For I,’ declares the LORD, ‘will be a wall of fire around her, and I will be the glory in her midst.’”
That is, ‘For I,’ declares the LORD [YHVH], ‘will be a wall of fire around her, and I will be the glory [Kabod, Hod] in her midst.’”
YHVH, the Angel of Jesus Christ will be the Kabod of Hod, the splendor, the glory, the holy beauty in her midst.
The people of God with these Divine Decrees are able to defend themselves from the attacks of the satans, including Tyre, Phoenicia, Jezebel, and any other enemy of the people of God; and to this remnant of believers who are walking in righteousness, The King and Lord of Hosts is giving the Divine Decree from the heavens to be able to defend themselves and defeat their enemies, including all cosmic enemies of YHVH, and pillage the enemies, taking back all that belongs to the people of God.
As it is written,
Ezekiel 28:19
New Living Translation
[To the King of Tyre] – All who knew you are appalled at your fate. You have come to a terrible end, and you will exist no more.”
