Jesus, je'-sus (Gk. fr. Heb.

Jeshua or Joshua)--whose help Jehovah is; deliverance; safety;


salvation; Savior; Deliverer; helper; prosperer; deliverance through Jehovah.

Jesus of Nazareth, son of Mary, and, according to the present-day Christian belief, the
Savior ofmankind. "Thou shalt call his name JESUS; for it is he that shall save his people
from their sins" (Matt.1:21).
Metaphysical. The I in man, the self, the directive power, raised to divine understanding and
power--the I AM identity

Metaphysical. A guarding thought activity (a porter or doorkeeper in the Temple) that,


being
lifted to a higher understanding and realization of Spirit (Jah is glorious, returning of
Jah), sees the
wonderful possibilities of the individual, or causes the individual to see his wonderful
possibilities,
through his indwelling Christ mind. Thus freedom is brought about by one's refusing to
give further
place or expression to the error, limited ideas that have heretofore held one in
bondage (taking captive,
captivating, returning, one whose descendants returned from the Babylonian captivity).
That which

Shobai signifies reminds one of the words in Ephesians 4:8:


"When he ascended on high, he led captivity captive,
And gave gifts unto men."
Even so when we lift up the Christ in ourselves we obtain power and dominion to restrain,
take captive,
and cast out of our life limited ideas and conditions. "Casting down imaginations, and
every high thing
that is exalted against the knowledge of God, and bringing every thought into captivity to
the obedience
of Christ" (II Cor. 10:5).

Metaphysical. Watchful, vigilant, guarding, protecting thought attitudes (watchman, guard,


keeper), in the higher, more religious and true phase of being in the individual and in his
outer or
seemingly mortal state of consciousness (an Israelite, and a Moabitish person. See
SHIMRITH and
SHEMER

Metaphysical. Active faith, on guard against error (watch, watcher, guard, protector,a
Benjamite). Jesus very earnestly admonished His followers to watch and pray, that they
might not be
overtaken and overcome by temptation, by the carnal desires of the "mind of the flesh"
within
themselves. In every one of the twelve faculties of mind in us, therefore, there should be
awakened a
watchful and attentive attitude toward Spirit.

Metaphysical.The flowing together and unifying (welding,


cementing) of thoughts that are
similar in character, to form a consciousness (city, metropolis) of
watchfulness, of waiting on God and
keeping the mind's eye centered on that which is high and
spiritual, that a keen insight into Truth may be
realized (watcher, watchtower, vision). Jesus said, "Take ye heed,
watch and pray:... And what I say
unto you I say unto all, Watch" (Mark 13:33, 37).
