Among the most popular characters of Scripture history are David and Goliath.
The Scriptures features the story of David, a shepherd boy, who defeated the powerful Philistine warrior named Goliath.
David grew up to be the mighty king of Yisrael (Israel), as well as YAHUSHA The Messiah‘s human ancestor.
David defeats Goliath appears on the Scripture Timeline around 1063 BC
Interesting Facts about David
The name “David” means Strong or Beloved.
According to the Hebrew Scripture or the Old Testament, David was the second king of Yisrael (Israel).
The Scroll (Book) of MATTITHYAHU (Matthew) and LUQAS (Luke) mentioned David as the ancestor of YAHUSHA. He is an important figure to the Hebrews, Christians, Islamic and Jewish culture and doctrine.
In Judaism, David was recognized as the king of Yisrael (Israel) and the entire Yisraelite (Israelite) people. In Islam, he was known as Dawud, who was said to be the king of a nation and a great prophet.
David lived from 1040 to 970 BC. His life was full of contrasts, as he was committed to YAHUAH ELOHIYM, yet he also engaged in grave sins that were recorded in the Old Testament. Pieces of information on David may be found in MELEKIYM RI’SHON (1 Kings), DIVREI HAYAMIYM RI’SHON (1 Chronicles), and the books of SHEMU’EL (Samuel). These resources provided some details on how challenging David’s life was.
For instance, he suffered from difficulties with his brothers and in dealing with the wrathful King Saul. Even when David became the king of Yisrael (Israel), he experienced constant warfare to defend his kingdom. Although he was an excellent military conqueror, he could not triumph over his own self. In fact, he allowed a lustful night with Bathsheba, which led serious consequences in his reputation and life.
Who Was Goliath
The name “Goliath” came from the Hebrew verb “gala”, which means to uncover or to go into exile. He is a figure found in the Old Testament and is famous for his battle with David.
His name appears twice in the Scripture, in the narration of his combat with the young David. In SHEMU’EL RI’SHON (1 Samuel) 17:50, Goliath was killed with a slingshot stone, and this resulted to David’s fame as a brave warrior.
The narration of David’s fight with Goliath was intended to present David’s identity as the rightful king of Yisrael (Israel).
In Yahudiym (Jewish) & Hebrew Yisralite (Israelite) traditions, Goliath’s status represented paganism while David was a visible sign of YAHUAH ELOHIYM’s victory and power.
David ‘s Accomplishments
One of the greatest accomplishments of David was when he defeated Goliath, the mighty Philistine warrior. David was only a young boy at that time, and Goliath was a veteran warrior with an intimidating appearance. The young David became a champion in the fight because of his great trust in YAHUAH ELOHIYM’s power. His faith also led him to numerous victories as he killed several enemies of Yisrael (Israel) in battles. He also became friends with Jonathan, Saul’s son.
The story of King David is found in SHEMU’EL RI’SHON (1 Samuel) 16 to MELEKIYM RI’SHON (1 Kings) 2.
He wrote much of the content in the Book of TEHILLIYM (Psalms), and he was mentioned in LUQAS (Luke) 1:32, MATTITHYAHU (Matthew) 1:1, ROMAIYM (Romans) 1:3, IVRIYM (Hebrews) 11:32, and MA’ASIYM (Acts) 13:22.

And MOSHEH built an altar, and called the name of it YAHUAH NICCIY – SHEMOT (EXODUS) 17:15
YAHUAH–NICCIY = “YAHUAH My Banner”

Cancer-Causing Herbicide Discovered In Mothers’ Breast Milk
Real Farmacy – realfarmacy.com
In the first ever testing on glyphosate herbicide in the breast milk of American women, Moms Across America and Sustainable Pulse have found ‘high’ levels in 3 out of the 10 samples tested. The shocking results point to glyphosate levels building up in women’s bodies over a period of time, which has until now been refuted by both global regulatory authorities and the biotech industry.
The levels found in the breast milk testing of 76 ug/l to 166 ug/l are 760 to 1600 times higher than the European Drinking Water Directive allows for individual pesticides. They are however less than the 700 ug/l maximum contaminant level (MCL) for glyphosate in the U.S., which was decided upon by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) based on the now seemingly false premise that glyphosate was not bio-accumulative.
Glyphosate-containing herbicides are the top-selling herbicides in the world and are sold under trademarks such as Monsanto’s ‘Roundup’. Monsanto’s sales of Roundup jumped 73 percent to $371 million in 2013 because of its increasing use on genetically engineered crops (GE Crops).
The glyphosate testing (1) commissioned by Moms Across America and Sustainable Pulse also analyzed 35 urine samples and 21 drinking water samples from across the US and found levels in urine that were over 10 times higher than those found in a similar survey done in the EU by Friends of the Earth Europe in 2013.
The initial testing that has been completed at Microbe Inotech Labs, St. Louis, Missouri, is not meant to be a full scientific study. Instead it was set up to inspire and initiate full peer-reviewed scientific studies on glyphosate, by regulatory bodies and independent scientists worldwide.
The initial testing was done using ELISA tests and due to a high minimum detection level in breast milk and urine, it is possible that even those samples which tested negative contained ‘worrying’ levels of glyphosate.
Moms Across America Founder and Director, Zen Honeycutt, stated Monday, “When I was told by several doctors and labs that I could not test my own or my children’s urine for the most widely used herbicide in the world over a year ago, I became determined to find a way. Parents and citizens deserve the ability to be able to take care of themselves and their families by finding out if herbicides could be impacting their health. The purpose of this glyphosate testing project is to shed light upon the presence of glyphosate in our water, children’s bodies and mother’s breast milk, hopefully inspiring further scientific studies to support the world in being a healthy, safe place to live.
“The mothers tested are mostly familiar with GMOs and glyphosate. Most of them have been trying to avoid GMOs and glyphosate for several months to two years, so the levels of mothers who are not aware of GMOs and glyphosate may be much higher,” Honeycutt concluded.
High Glyphosate Levels – Danger for Infants?
There is currently no regulatory limit for the amount of glyphosate in breast milk anywhere in the world. However, the EPA has set a legally enforceable maximum contaminant level (MCL) for glyphosate of 700 ug/l in drinking water, which is 7,000 times higher than the MCL in Europe.
Monsanto and regulatory bodies worldwide have based all of their regulations on the assumption that glyphosate is not bio-accumulative. Senior Monsanto scientist, Dan Goldstein, even recently stated (2), “If ingested, glyphosate is excreted rapidly, does not accumulate in body fat or tissues, and does not undergo metabolism in humans. Rather, it is excreted unchanged in the urine.”
The discovery of levels of glyphosate in breast milk that are much higher than any reported results for urine samples is a source of concern to both the general public and government regulators worldwide, as the data suggests that glyphosate is bio-accumulative; building up in people’s bodies over a period of time.
Earth Open Source Research Director Claire Robinson said, “Regulators and industry always say it is the dose that makes the poison, and even the increasing levels of glyphosate currently found in food and feed and the environment are not a problem. However, that argument only holds true if glyphosate doesn’t build up in the human body and is excreted as fast as we take it in. These breast milk results suggest glyphosate may bio-accumulate. That means that our body tissues might be exposed to higher levels than the so-called safe levels set by regulators. So the regulations are not protecting us.”
From a total of 10 samples sent in by Mothers from states across the U.S., 3 women had detectable levels of glyphosate in their breast milk. The highest glyphosate level was detected in a mother from Florida (166 ug/l) and the other two mothers with ‘positive’ results were from Virginia (76 ug/l) and Oregon (99 ug/l).
Dr Angelika Hilbeck, senior scientist at the Institute of Integrative Biology in Zurich, stated, “If confirmed in a full investigation, it seems that glyphosate has become a ubiquitous chemical in terms of presence and persistence. This data also offers a first indication of potential accumulation in the human body, giving newborns a substantial dose of synthetic chemicals as a ‘gift’ for their start into life, with unknown consequences. This is reckless and irresponsible conduct in a democratic society, which still has a living memory of previous reckless chemical contaminations, such as DDT. It seems we either did not learn, or we have forgotten, our lessons from Rachel Carson! (3)”
Jessica M. from Virginia, one of the mothers who tested positive for glyphosate in her breast milk, said, “It is frightening to see any glyphosate in my body, especially in my breast milk that will then contaminate my son’s growing body. It’s particularly upsetting to test positive for glyphosate because I go to great lengths to eat organic and GMO free. I do not consume any meats or seafood and only very rarely eat dairy. This really shows me, and should show others, just how pervasive this toxin is in our food system.”
Honeycutt added, “Moms Across America feels very strongly that breast milk should still be the number one choice for mothers and certainly preferred over GMO soy formula ingredients. We just urge all mothers to eat as organic as possible, especially avoiding meat, dairy, oils and grains that are sprayed with glyphosate at harvest as a drying agent.”
“What we have found encouraging is that the women who have been eating organic and non-GMO very strictly, for several months to two years, did not find detectable levels of glyphosate in their breast milk.”
Why Are Glyphosate Levels in Urine Higher than in Europe?
In 2013 people in 18 countries across Europe were found to have traces of glyphosate in their urine by a test commissioned by Friends of The Earth Europe (4). The maximum levels of glyphosate found in the tests ranged from 0.16 ug/l in Switzerland to 1.82 ug/l in Latvia.
Shockingly, the new US testing by Moms Across America and Sustainable Pulse found maximum glyphosate levels in urine over 10 times higher than those found in Europe.
From the 35 samples received from across the U.S., 13 samples were above the minimum detectable level. The three highest levels were all found in women, with the highest in Oregon (18.8 ug/l). Other positive results were found in samples from the states of California, Washington, Maryland, Colorado and Hawaii.
Experts point to the GE Crop industry as being to blame for the results in both breast milk and urine, due to the amount of glyphosate used on ‘Roundup-Ready GE Crops’ in the U.S.
he U.S. has a high percentage of its farmland controlled by the GE crops industry, with many varieties of GE soybeans, GE corn, GE cotton and others, whereas Europe has only allowed one GE Crop – Monsanto’s MON810 maize – which is still not grown in most EU states due to health and environmental concerns.
A 2012 study published by Washington State University (5) research professor Charles Benbrook found that the use of glyphosate in the production of three genetically modified herbicide-tolerant crops – cotton, soybeans and corn – has increased. Benbrook’s analysis was the first peer-reviewed, published estimate of the impacts of genetically engineered (GE) herbicide-resistant (HT) crops on pesticide use.
“Most genetically engineered soybeans now moving through trade channels worldwide contain 2 ppm to over 10 ppm of glyphosate plus its major metabolite, AMPA. These are extraordinarily high residues that raise concerns, given that many people are exposed to glyphosate through drinking water, the air, and a variety of foods. I am particularly worried by exposures during pregnancy and through the first years of a child’s life, when the risk of harm to developing organ systems is greatest. More research is urgently needed on glyphosate’s capacity to disrupt normal development,” Benbrook stated.
Glyphosate in U.S. Drinking Water
In this initial testing phase 21 samples of drinking water were tested for glyphosate from across the U.S.
13 of the samples contained glyphosate levels of between 0.085 ug/l and 0.33 ug/l. This is well below the levels found in both urine and breast milk but is still cause for concern, as the European (EU) maximum allowed level for glyphosate in drinking water is 0.1 ug/l.
Regulatory Bodies Urged to Act – Further Testing Needed
The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), European Food Safety Authority (EFSA), Food Standards Australia New Zealand (FSANZ) and other regulatory bodies around the world are being urged to act following the release of this initial testing data, to prevent what is a dangerous public health situation.
Sustainable Pulse Director Henry Rowlands stated, “Regulatory bodies and governments worldwide need to act fast to ban all glyphosate-based herbicides as a temporary measure, while further long-term testing is completed by both them and independent scientists. This is the only way that they can regain the trust and protect the health of mothers, infants and the general public as a whole.”
“It was a huge mistake by both the U.S. government and the biotech industry to promote and release products without long-term independent studies. What we are now looking at with glyphosate-based herbicides is a similar situation to what we all faced in the 20th Century with PCBs, DDT and Agent Orange,” Rowlands concluded.
Due to testing results and skyrocketing health issues, as a matter of precaution, Moms Across America calls for a cease and desist of the practice of spraying glyphosate on GE foods and as a drying agent on food crops, increasing the consumption of glyphosate in our food, including but not limited to, wheat, corn, soy, sugar, rice, dry peas and beans and tea. The EPA lists over 160 foods with allowable levels of glyphosate that are unacceptable to mothers.
Moms Across America and Sustainable Pulse are also calling for:
-Adequate long-term independent testing to ensure that glyphosate herbicide formulations as sold and used are not persistent, bio-accumulative or toxic. This testing must include the outcomes most relevant to children’s health.
-The U.S. Congress should supply funding for urgently needed long-term independent research on glyphosate herbicide formulations, including their health effects, how they get into the human body, and current levels of accumulation in people, animals and the environment. Studies performed for regulatory authorisation up until now have only tested the isolated ingredient glyphosate, not the complete formulations as sold and used, even though the formulations have been found in many studies to be much more toxic than the isolated ingredient. Also these studies are funded by the agrochemical industry, i.e. they are not independent. Finally, they are kept secret under commercial confidentiality rules, so cannot be scrutinised by independent scientists and the public.
PCB Similarities
This case of finding high levels of glyphosate in breast milk is a re-run of the Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) scandal in the 1970s (6), which ended up in the toxic chemical compound’s production being banned by the U.S. Congress in 1979.
Before the ban Monsanto, the only North American producer, had marketed PCBs under the trade name Aroclor from 1930 to 1977 and had insisted that it was not toxic.
It was not until levels of PCBs in breast milk were found to be 10 times those in blood, obtained from residents in the Osaka Prefecture of Japan (7), that the toxicity of PCBs was questioned by regulators, leading to the 1979 ban.
According to the EPA, PCBs, which were widely used for over 40 years as dielectric and coolant fluids, have now been shown to cause cancer in humans.
Is it not time that regulators learned lessons from past mistakes?
This Is What Happens to the Body After Eating Organic for One Week
Real Farmacy – realfarmacy.com
With toxins seemingly everywhere these days, from the food we eat to the air we breathe and the water we drink, you might feel like there’s nothing you can do to avoid being exposed to dangerous substances. However, one study shows that you have a lot more control over it than you might think as switching to organic food for just one week can bring about a dramatic decrease in your toxin levels.
The study involved following four families from varying backgrounds as they consumed a conventional diet across six days and then switched to an organic diet for an additional six days. The conditions were very controlled, with researchers providing the organic food on the families’ shopping lists or hiring chefs to cook the organic meals for them during the all-organic phase.
The families the researchers chose were racially diverse and came from cities across the nation. They did not normally consume an organic diet, and all had children between the ages of three and 18 living at home. Food diaries were used, along with questionnaires to determine potential pesticide exposure within the home and nearby, such as its proximity to locations where pesticides are used.
The participants’ urine was tested before, during and after the study. The researchers found 14 pesticide metabolites and pesticides in the participants’ urine, representing exposure to more than 40 different types of pesticides. All but one of these biomarkers were reduced significantly following the organic diet.
Their overall pesticide levels fell by 60.5 percent in under a week. Malathion dropped by 95 percent, while organophosphates dropped by 70 percent and chlorpyrifos fell by 61 percent. Meanwhile, 2,4-D dropped by 37 percent.
This study was designed to look at exposure rather than the health outcomes related to that exposure, which can be very time-consuming. However, other studies that have explored this connection have illustrated how powerful this change can be, with a French study noting a 25 percent decrease in cancer levels after increasing organic food consumption.
Some of the problems that have been linked to pesticide exposure include lower cognitive scores, asthma, liver problems, reproductive and endocrine problems, attention and behavioral issues, and cancer. Conversely, a higher frequency of consuming organic food and the resultant reduced pesticide exposure has been found to be protective against a few types of cancer.
Switch to organic now, and your body will thank you
This study, and others like it, demonstrate just how powerful our food choices can be. It is never too late to switch to organic, and the benefits are tangible. If cost is holding you back, you might start by focusing on the fruits and vegetables that tend to have the most pesticides.
Each year, the Environmental Working Group releases its Dirty Dozen, a list of the fruits and vegetables that have the most pesticides. Not surprisingly, this list is mostly composed of foods that have delicate exteriors that are consumed. Even if you can’t buy everything organic, you should at least spring for organic strawberries, spinach, nectarines, grapes, kale, apples, peaches, tomatoes, and pears. Foods with an inedible protective barrier are often the safest bets if you must buy conventional produce. These include avocados, pineapples, onions, and kiwis.
Another budget-friendly option is growing your own organic produce, which is easier than you might think. There are lots of tools that can help you grow your own vegetables, even with limited space, and you will have full knowledge of exactly what you’re putting into your body.
Consuming organic is a choice that can give you more control over your health, and it can yield tremendously positive results rather quickly. Set a date and put yourself on the path to better health!
This Appointed Time symbolizes the RESURRECTION of Messiah from the dead.
He is the FIRST-FRUIT of creation, and the FIRST-FRUIT of those having fallen asleep (the dead) – thus also the FIRST FRUIT of the harvest.
According to Scripture, the traditional thing to do on First-Fruits, was to have a wave offering.
Vayiqra (Leviticus) 23:9-11 And YAHUAH spoke to Mosheh, saying, “Speak to the children of Yisrael, and you shall say to them, ‘When you come into the land which I give you, and shall reap its harvest, then you shall bring a sheaf of the first-fruits of your harvest to the priest. ‘And he shall wave the sheaf before YAHUAH, for your acceptance. On the morrow after the Sabbath the priest waves it.
Please NOTE the “morrow” after the Sabbath significance of the above Scripture, meaning that this Appointed Times takes place on the first day of the week *(sun- day), with the recurring weekly Sabbath (falling on a gregorian satur-day). This Appointed Time is part of the first three Spring Appointed Times, and takes place during the festival of Matzah (Unleavened Bread), following Pesach (Passover).
MattithYahu (Matthew) 27:50-53
And YAHUSHA cried out again with a loud voice, and gave up His spirit. And see, the veil of the Dwelling Place was torn in two from top to bottom, and the earth was shaken, and the rocks were split, and the tombs were opened, and many bodies of the set-apart ones who had fallen asleep were raised, and coming out of the tombs after His resurrection, they went into the set-apart city and appeared to many.
1Corintiyim (Cor) 15:20-23
But now Messiah has been raised from the dead, and has become the first-fruit of those having fallen asleep. For since death is through a man, resurrection of the dead is also through a Man. For as all die in Aḏam, so also all shall be made alive in Messiah. And each in his own order: Messiah the first-fruits, then those who are of Messiah at His coming.
WHEN exactly was Messiah raised from the dead?
Christianity teaches that Messiah was raised on the first day of the week (sun-day), hence they celebrate their pagan (man-made) easter sun-day, instead of celebrating the Scriptural Passover, as commanded by Almighty YAHUAH.
Mattithyahu 28:1
Now [after] the Sabbath (which took place on Gregorian satur-day – the seventh day of the Scriptural week), toward [dawn] on the [first day] of the week (gregorian sun- day), Miryam from Maḡdala and the other Miryam came to see the tomb.
Mattithyahu 28:5-6
And the messenger responding, said to the women, “Do not be afraid, for I know that you seek YAHUSHA who was impaled. “He is not here, for He was raised, as He said. Come, see the place where the Master lay”.
Yahuchanon 20:1
And on the [first day] of the week Miryam from Maḡdala came early to the tomb, while it was [still dark], and saw that the stone had been removed from the tomb.
In BOTH the above Scriptures, we see that Messiah was RAISED BEFORE the start of the first day of the week (gregorian sun-day). He was thus NOT raised on the first day of the week as Christianity falsely proclaim.
What does this Appointed Time of Bikkurim have to do with Messiah YAHUSHA? What does this have to do with Passover and Unleavened Bread?
Well, Messiah YAHUSHA is the first-fruits of the harvest. He is the first to ripen in the sight of YAHUAH. Because of Him, we are able to be counted among the harvest of YAHUAH.
YAHUSHA is the first-begotten of the Father (Heb 1:6); the Firstborn of Creation (Col 1:15-16); the first-begotten of the dead (Rev 1:5), and is the First-fruits of those who are to be resurrected (1Cor 15:20-23). Praise YAHUAH! And just as He is our First-fruits, so “He chose to give us birth through the word of truth, that we might be a kind of first fruits of all His creatures” (Jam 1:18).
Kepha’Ri’shon (1Peter) 1:3
Blessed be the Elohim and Father of our Master YAHUSHA Messiah, who according to His great compassion has caused us to be born again to a living expectation through the resurrection of YAHUSHA Messiah from the dead.
Chizayon (Revelation) 14:4
They are those who were not defiled with women, for they are maidens. They are those following the Lamb wherever He leads them on. They were redeemed from among men, being first-fruits to Elohim and to the Lamb.
Our mission is to go into the world and witness the Good News (Besorah) to every living creature (Mar 16:15), and recognize that the fields are white (ripe) for the harvest (Yohn 4:35). We are fellow-workers of Elohim’s field (1 Cor 3:9).
Hopper explains the his minions the reality of their situation. It also shows clearly the mechanisms of how the few in our world control 6 billion of us. (Also take note of how Stockholm Syndrom is induced!)
