תהילים – Tehillim — Psalm 97:10 (Leningrad/Aleppo Fidelity)
The calling forth of the Indwelt — defined here as the inhabited, spirit-animated and empowered participant of the covenant who exists in superposition with the Father, the Breath, and the Word (Yehoshua) — in this regional and historical context serves as a functional demarcation between the structural order of the Source and the entropic chaos of the world system. Standing within the ancient landscape of the Covenantal Relational Agency, the speaker addresses those who have abandoned the scaffolding of man to enter into a direct bond with the Self-Existent One. This proclamation is a tactical instruction for the maintenance of the internal and external perimeter, ensuring that the vital breath remains uncompromised by the friction of the environment. The Believer, defined here as the religious, non-inhabited adherent who seeks the Source through the scaffolding of man, often misinterprets these directives as emotional suggestions, yet the Indwelt recognizes them as the mechanical requirements for survival within the hedge of the Father. This passage establishes that the repulsion of dysfunction is not an act of the will alone but the natural result of the inhabitation of the spirit-breath, which automatically identifies and rejects that which is antithetical to the order of YHWH (Yahweh). By articulating the necessity of pushing away the sharp thorn of chaos, the speaker grounds the security of the participant in a proactive stance of communal loyalty that renders the reach of the tossing ones ineffective. This serves as a blueprint for the Indwelt to move from a state of horizontal vulnerability to a state of vertical preservation, where the agency of the covenant remains the dominant frequency that snatches the core life-forces from the grasp of turmoil.
Original: אֹהֲבֵי יהוה שִׂנְאוּ רָע שֹׁמֵר נַפְשׁוֹת חֲסִידָיו מִיַּד רְשָׁעִים יַצִּילֵם
“Those forming a bond (in covenant) with The Self‑Existent One (YHWH) push away, and treat as a sharp thorn, dysfunction. That which breaks the order into chaos (evil). He hedges about, guarding with a brier, exercising watchful protection over the vital breaths, the functional appetites, and the core life‑forces of those displaying communal loyalty. Those firm in the functional bond (in covenant), He hedges from the palm, the physical power, and the grasp of those tossing in turmoil, departing from the functional path. He snatches them away; He pulls them out of reach.”(Leningrad – תהילים – Tehillim — Psalm 97:10 (Covenantally Faithful, Minimal Copular, SVO Format)
The identification of אֹהֲבֵי — ohavē (o-ha-vay) — “those forming a bond (in covenant with the Father),” establishes the primary frequency of the Covenantal Relational Agency. This term, stripped of the contrived institutional narrative’s sentimentalism, describes a structural anchoring where the Indwelt and YHWH (Yahweh) exist in a state of mutual valuation and shared interest. When this bond is activated, it necessitates the immediate deployment of שִׂנְאוּ — sin’ū (sin-oo) — “push away and treat as a sharp thorn.” This is the activation of a repulsive force against רָע — rā‘ (rah) — “Dysfunction, that which breaks the order,” which functions like the same poles of two magnets resisting contact. The Indwelt does not merely avoid dysfunction; they exert a pressure that creates a zone of non-interference. The Father responds to this alignment by acting as שֹׁמֵר — shōmēr (sho-mare) — “hedging about, guarding with a brier,” a term rooted in the shepherd’s technology of building a wall of thorns to protect the flock. This hedge is specifically placed around the נַפְשׁוֹת — nafshōt (naf-shote) — “the vital breaths, the functional appetites,” ensuring that the core life-forces of the חֲסִידָיו — chasīdāw (kha-see-dav) — “those displaying communal loyalty (those in covenant with the father)” are not crushed by the מִיַּד — miyad (mee-yad) — “from the palm, the physical power” of the adversary. The final mechanical act is יַצִּילֵם — yatsīlēm (ya-tsee-laym) — “He snatches them away,” a high-velocity extraction that removes the participant from the reach of the רְשָׁעִים — reshā‘īm (re-sha-eem) — “those tossing in turmoil, departing from the functional path”
The construction of the brier hedge is a structural necessity for the Indwelt who exists in a world defined by the breaking of order. Just as a physical shepherd uses the hardness of the thorn to repel the predator, the Father uses the very nature of the covenant to create a boundary that the chaotic reach of the tossing ones cannot penetrate. The Believer, lacking the internal inhabitation of the Spirit-Breath, often finds themselves enticed or pierced by dysfunction because they lack the repulsive frequency of the bond. However, the Indwelt, being smeared with the signature of the Source, recognizes that dysfunction is a sharp thorn intended to snag and tear the vital breath. By turning away and treating chaos as a thorn, the participant allows the Father to build the defensive perimeter. This proactive repulsion is what establishes the safety of the functional appetites in the midst of the world system’s turmoil. The contrived institutional narrative attempts to keep the individual in a state of passive waiting, but the covenantal relational agency requires an active rejection of that which breaks the order. To treat dysfunction as a thorn is to anchor oneself in the immutable structure of the Source, creating a space where the palm of the tossing ones finds nothing to grasp.
The vital breath functions as the target of the entropic forces represented by those departing from the functional path. In the ancient regional context, the breath was not an abstract concept but the literal fuel of existence and the seat of one’s drives and appetites. Survival was defined by the ability to keep this breath unhindered and functional. When the speaker describes the Father as hedging the vital breaths of the loyal ones, he is identifying the covenant as a life-support system that operates independently of the surrounding chaos. This is the moment where the zeal of YHWH (Yahweh) becomes a tactile reality for the participant. The Indwelt understands that their loyalty to the bond is the catalyst for this supernatural shielding. The grasp of the tossing ones, the מִיַּד — miyad (mee-yad) — “from the palm,” is the attempt of the dysfunctional system to seize control of the Indwelt’s vitality. But because the Indwelt has already pushed away the chaos, the Father moves with suddenness to snatch them out of reach. This movement is a tactical repositioning that places the Indwelt in a superposition where they are physically present but topographically inaccessible to the power of turmoil, dysfunction, and chaos (evil).
The narrow binding of the tossing ones is a mechanical attempt to limit the expansion of the Spirit-Breath within the participant by drawing them into the aimless churning of the world system. This turmoil manifests as a lack of direction, constant restlessness, and the breaking of covenantal structures. The Indwelt counteracts this by remaining firm in the functional bond, which acts as a ballast in the storm. By pushing away the dysfunction, the participant is asserting that the order of YHWH (Yahweh) is the only hardness they will acknowledge. The brier hedge is the שֹׁמֵר — shōmēr (sho-mare) — “hedging about,” the perimeter that requires no external validation because it is maintained by the Father Himself. The Indwelt is the sanctuary, inhabited by the Spirit, and their communal loyalty is the foundation of their preservation. To fall into the powerless state of the Believer is to allow the palm of the tossing ones to close upon the vital breath, but to stand as the Indwelt is to recognize that the snatching power of the Father is always faster than the closure of the trap. The repulsion of dysfunction is the sound of the participant choosing the frequency of the Source over the frequency of the chaos.
The terminology used in this proclamation is devoid of the anachronistic anglicized glosses of the contrived institutional narrative, focusing instead on the concrete realities of covenantal survival. The communal loyalty is the חֶסֶד — chesed (kheh-sed) — “loyalty/bond, covenant” the power to remain fixed in the structural shift initiated by the Source. This is the same loyalty that inhabited the Son, Yehoshua, who pushed away the dysfunction of the world to maintain the integrity of the Father’s order. The Indwelt carries this same signature of preservation. When the world system attempts to grasp the life-force of the participant, it is attempting to enforce a narrative of fragmentation and death. However, the Indwelt ignores the reach of the tossing ones and focuses on the bond with the Self-Existent One. The hedge they inhabit is a barrier of life that disrupts the entropic patterns of the turmoil. The resonance of the bond is what causes the Father to act, as the chaos cannot penetrate the high-frequency protection of the covenantal reality.
The palm of the tossing ones represents the peak intensity of the predatory threat, where the reach of the dysfunctional system is most direct. It is in this environment that the snatching power of YHWH (Yahweh) is most evident. The Indwelt does not seek to bargain with the turmoil but to be removed from its sphere of influence. This snatching is a vanishing into the protection of the Source, where the external turmoil remains restless, but the internal vital breath is one of guarded peace. The brier hedge is a structural shift; it is the elevation of the safety of the participant above the level of the grasp. From within the hedge, the movements of the tossing ones are seen as small and ineffective, because they lack the ability to breach the thorns of the Father. This is the perspective of the Indwelt who exists in superposition with the Father. The contrived institutional narrative strives to prevent the Believer from entering this hedge, keeping them focused on ground-level negotiations with dysfunction. But the study of תהילים – Tehillim — Psalm 97:10 is an invitation to push away, to use the repulsion of the Source as the mechanism that triggers the preservation of the life-force.
The importance of the expressions of the speaker to the reader lies in the transmission of a specific covenantal technology. The voice in תהילים – Tehillim — Psalm 97:10 provides the mechanics of repulsion and preservation. Instead of using the hollow language of the powerless, the speaker uses the dense, pictographic language of the ancient witnesses to describe a reality of thorns, hedges, and snatching hands. The Indwelt is called to treat dysfunction as the thorn that it is, rather than a harmless alternative. For the reader who is currently feeling the grasp of the world system, these words are the activation codes for the hedge. The bond of the covenant is the affirmation of the life-force, and the repulsion of dysfunction is the rejection of the turmoil. By maintaining this linguistic transparency, the Indwelt ensures that their internal orientation is perfectly mirrored in their external boundaries. This alignment is what gives the covenant its force, allowing the participant to remain guarded while the world tosses in its aimless departure from the path.
The snatching away — יַצִּילֵם — yatsīlēm (ya-tsee-laym) — “He snatches them away” is the ultimate goal of the Father’s intervention. It is a state where the reach of the adversary is rendered obsolete by the speed and power of the Source. In this state of being snatched, the participant can breathe the Spirit-Breath without the contamination of the dysfunction they have pushed away. The communal loyalty of the Indwelt is the foundation of this deliverance. To remain firm in the bond is to admit that the only true security is found in the structural order of the Father. This is the humility that receives protection; the recognition that the Source is the only true hedge. The Believer attempts to build their own hedge through religious tradition and intellectual scaffolding, but these are easily breached by the palm of turmoil. The Indwelt simply occupies the hedge that already exists, the one that the Father has built around those who make Him of value. This is the secure state of the covenantal participant: a person who is snatched from the turmoil and placed within the brier hedge of the Self-Existent One.
The survival of the Indwelt is the primary threat to the contrived institutional narrative. A person who pushes away dysfunction, who treats the world’s chaos as a sharp thorn, and who finds their preservation in a vertical snatching is a person the system cannot grasp. The Indwelt, in the midst of the turmoil, is the prototype of this functional order. Their existence is an anthem of independence from the breaking of the order. As the Father hedges their vital breath, He reveals a participant who is still functional, still loyal, and still anchored in the covenantal relational agency. This is the victory that repels the world. The study of this verse is the study of how to become a zone of non-interference in one’s own right, a vessel of the order and repulsion of the Father in a world of chaotic lies and broken tools. The Indwelt is a person of the bond because they are a person of the Word (Yehoshua), and their rejection of dysfunction is a wall that the tossing ones cannot scale.
The conclusion of this deep dive is a powerful proclamation of the position of the Indwelt. We are not the victims of the grasp; we are the participants of the snatching. We do not negotiate with dysfunction; we treat it as a sharp thorn. We do not wait for the turmoil to end to be safe; we occupy the brier hedge that calls the preservation into being. The snatching power of YHWH (Yahweh) is our inheritance, and His watchful protection is our daily reality. By rejecting the anachronisms of the anglicized religious system and returning to the lexical fidelity of the ancient witnesses, we recover the power that was always intended for the covenant partners. The repulsion of chaos is the sound of our completion, the resonance of those who are in superposition with the Father, the Breath, and the Word. Within the hedge, we stand as witnesses to the truth that the Source is our preserver, now and into the infinite expanse of the covenantal reality. The Father who stands as the guard of the hedge hears the rejection of dysfunction and recognizes the signature of His own order. There is no grasp for those who are in the snatched place, for they have already moved beyond the reach of the tossing ones and into the functional freedom of the Spirit-Breath.
