―Who is gone into heaven, and is on the right hand of God; angels and authorities and powers being made
subject unto him.‖ (1 Peter 3:22)
Elohim stripped Satan‘s power; and all angels, authorities and powers were made subject to Y‘shua.
―So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of
God.‖ (Mark 16:19)
Glory to El Elyon! Satan's power base after the crucifixion stake was changed from ̳dunamis‘ to ̳exousia‘
power; meaning, ̳only what the Holy Spirit allows him to have‘. Satan's head is now bruised!
―There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer
you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye
may be able to bear it.‖ (1 Cor 10:13)
27:54 Truly this was the Son of God
―Now when the centurion, and they that were with him, watching Jesus, saw the earthquake, and those
things that were done, they feared greatly, saying, Truly this was the Son of God.‖
―Son of God‖ – See explanation at the end of this chapter, ―Y‘shua crucified on the Passover‖ in chapter 1,
under ―Will the real Y‘shua please stand up‖, in ―How could Y‘shua be Son of Yoseph and Son of God?―
under Matt 1:23, and ―Matt 4:3 The Son of God‖.
27:55- 61 He went to Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus
―(55) And many women were there beholding afar off, which followed Jesus from Galilee, ministering unto
him: (56) Among which was Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James and Joses, and the mother of
Zebedee's children. (57) When the even was come, there came a rich man of Arimathaea, named Joseph,
who also himself was Jesus' disciple: (58) He went to Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus. Then Pilate
commanded the body to be delivered. (59) And when Joseph had taken the body, he wrapped it in a clean
linen cloth, (60) And laid it in his own new tomb, which he had hewn out in the rock: and he rolled a great
stone to the door of the sepulchre, and departed. (61) And there was Mary Magdalene, and the other Mary,
sitting over against the sepulchre.‖
The body of Y‘shua was then removed from the crucifixion stake. The Bible teaches that He was
unrecognised as a human being, which is a far cry from how we perceive Y‘shua on the crucifixion stake!
―..... Just as there were many who were appalled at him -- his appearance was so disfigured beyond that of
any man and his form marred beyond human likeness‖ (Isaiah 52:14)
Y‘shua‘s burial
(Also see explanation from Matt 27:66 onwards)
The Hebrew Scriptures:
(7) ―He was oppressed and He was afflicted, Yet He opened not His mouth; He was led as a lamb to the
slaughter, and as a sheep before its shearers is silent, so He opened not His mouth.
(8) He was taken from prison and from judgement, and who will declare His generation? For He was cut
off from the land of the living; for the transgressions of My people He was stricken.
(9) And they made His grave with the wicked -- but with the rich at His death, because He had done no
violence, nor was any deceit in His mouth.‖ (Isaiah 53:7-9)
The Rabbinic Writers:
―Jonathan ben Uzziel interprets it in the Targum of the future Messiah; and this is also the opinion of our own
learned men in the majority of their Midrashim.‖ (Rabbi don Yitzehak Abarbanel, circa 1500 CE)
―Forthwith the Holy One began to make a covenant with the Messiah: O Messiah, my righteousness, said he,
the iniquities of those who are hidden beside thee will cause thee to enter into a hard yoke... said the
Messiah, Lord of the world I accept it joyfully, and will endure these chastisements... Messiah accepted the
chastisement of love, as it is written; He was oppressed, and he was afflicted.‖ (Rabbi Moshe Ha-Darshan,
10th, 11th century CE, Midrash on Bereshith)
