Genesis 1:26-28

CLV ²⁶ And saying is the Elohim, “Make will We humanity in Our image, and according to Our likeness, and sway shall they over the fish of the sea, and over the flyer of the heavens, and over the beast, and over all land life, and over every moving animal moving on the land. ²⁷And creating is the Elohim humanity in His image. In the image of the Elohim He creates it. Male and female He creates them. ²⁸ And blessing them is the Elohim. And saying to them is the Elohim, “Be fruitful and increase and fill the earth, and subdue it. And sway over the fish of the sea, and over the flyer of the heavens, and over the beast, and over all the earth, and over all life moving on the land.

By the time Jacob addresses the 12 tribes in diaspora, humanity in the flesh is duly taming all of creation. From the beginning, the native constitution of humanity included the assignment to rule over all other native dispositions. All creations from Genesis chapter one were subject to humanity. Pre-fall, page one of the Bible, should not be overlooked. It contains the original teleos of Adam and animals. Did Adam really look for a wife among monkeys, Zebras and giraffes? Even the four animal kingdoms named by Daniel during the diaspora were represented by animals.

Daniel 7

Daniel saw four beasts come out of the sea (of nations) to rule over God’s people due to their disobedience. Daniel is told that they represent four kingdoms. The messiah would appear in the fourth kingdom. Meanwhile, the 12 tribes scattered set up a synagogue in every city teaching the humanity of Moses to all the nations. It was the Hebrew pre-evangelism.

1. The first beast is like a lion with eagle’s wings (v. 4).
2. The second beast is like a bear, raised up on one side, with three ribs between its teeth (v. 5).
3. The third beast like a leopard with four wings of fowl and four heads (v. 6).
4. The fourth beast has large iron teeth and ten horns (v. 7-8).

Hosea 13:5-14

LITV ⁵ I have known you in the wilderness, in the land of great dryness. ⁶ According to their pasture, so they were filled. They were filled, and their heart was lifted up. On account of this they have forgotten Me. ⁷ Now I am as a lion to them; I will watch by the way like a leopard. ⁸ I will meet them like a bereaved bear, and I will tear the lining of their heart; and as a lion, I will devour them there; the beast of the field shall tear them. ⁹ O Israel, you are destroyed, but your help is in Me. ¹⁰ Where is your king now, that he may save you in all your cities? And where are your judges of whom you said, Give to me a king and rulers? ¹¹ I gave to you a king in My anger, and took him away in My fury. ¹² The iniquity of Ephraim is bound up; his sin is hidden. ¹³The pains of a woman in travail shall come to him; he is not a wise son, for he cannot stand still in the time of the breaking forth of sons. ¹⁴ I will ransom them from the hand of Sheol; I will redeem them from death. O death, where are your plagues? O Sheol, where is your ruin? Repentance is hidden from My eyes.

James 3:7

ECB ⁷ For all nature, both of beasts and of flyers, both of creepers and of those in the sea, is tamed – and has been tamed by human nature:

In James 3:7, the five original living souls of the past are still mentioned. By the time Romans is written, Stephen has been stoned and humanity is being condemned for it’s typical flesh mode focus. The church is scattered to the nations and the new spiritual and decentralized humanity is infiltrating the sea of nations. Paul now condemns the old humanity who unwittingly participated in the pre-evangelism mentioned in James 3:7. Because they are rejecting the new humanity. They committed idolatry by getting stuck on venerating the typical icons. During the transition to the new creation, the sea is going away, because God was removing that which separated Jews from Gentiles. The Holy Spirit makes people holy. The Holy Spirit used to be in the land of the Jews, before the gospel went to all nations. The Holy Spirit indwelling started with Jews who temporarily gathered in the land. They themselves dispelled the belief that holiness was still by national affiliation.

Romans 1:16-25

ECB ¹⁶
THE DYNAMIS OF THE EVANGELISM 
For I am not ashamed of the evangelism of Messiah: for it is the dynamis of Elohim to salvation to everyone who trusts – both to the Yah Hudiy first and also to the Hellene. ¹⁷ For therein is the justness of Elohim unveiled from trust to trust: exactly as scribed, The just live by trust. ^{Habakkuk 2:418}
IRREVERENCE AND INJUSTICE 
For the wrath of Elohim is unveiled from the heavens against all irreverence and injustice of humanity who hold the truth in injustice; ¹⁹ because what is known of Elohim is manifest in them; for Elohim manifests to them. ²⁰ For his invisibles from the creation of the cosmos are clearly seen being comprehended by his doings – both his eternal dynamis and divinity; so that they are inexcusable: ²¹ because when they knew Elohim they neither glorified him as Elohim, nor eucharistized; but became vain in their reasonings and darkened their uncomprehending heart: ²² professing themselves to be wise they became fools; ²³ and changed the glory of the uncorruptible Elohim into an icon likened to corruptible humanity and to flyers and quadrupeds and creepers. ²⁴ So Elohim also surrendered them to impurity in the pantings of their own hearts, to dishonor their own bodies among themselves: ²⁵ who exchanged the truth of Elohim into a lie and venerated and liturgized the creature beyond the Creator – who is eulogized to the eons. Amen.

Peter was restored from his previous campfire denial of the Lord. He denied Him three times shortly after the last old covenant supper with Him. Yeshua provided the campfire and the bread and fish. The meat for this fellowship meal was fish from the sea and Peter was reinstated. He is given the mission to feed Yeshua’s sheep. Peter will learn to eat with Gentiles in the new covenant.

John 21:12-14

YLT ¹² Jesus saith to them, `Come ye, dine;’ and none of the disciples was venturing to inquire of him, `Who art thou?’ knowing that it is the Lord; ¹³ Jesus, therefore, doth come and take the bread and give to them, and the fish in like manner; ¹⁴ this is now a third time Jesus was manifested to his disciples, having been raised from the dead. 

YLT  ¹⁷ He saith to him the third time, `Simon, son of Jonas, dost thou dearly love me?’ Peter was grieved that he said to him the third time, `Dost thou dearly love me?’ and he said to him, `Lord, thou hast known all things; thou dost know that I dearly love thee.’ Jesus saith to him, `Feed my sheep; ¹⁸ verily, verily, I say to thee, When thou wast younger, thou wast girding thyself and wast walking whither thou didst will, but when thou mayest be old, thou shalt stretch forth thy hands, and another will gird thee, and shall carry thee whither thou dost not will;’ ¹⁹ and this he said, signifying by what death he shall glorify God; and having said this, he saith to him, `Be following me.’ 
<sup>20</sup> And Peter having turned about doth see the disciple whom Jesus was loving following, (who also reclined in the supper on his breast, and said, `Sir, who is he who is delivering thee up?’) ²¹ Peter having seen this one, saith to Jesus, `Lord, and what of this one?’ <sup>22</sup> Jesus saith to him, `If him I will to remain till I come, what—to thee? be thou following me.’ This word, therefore, went forth to the brethren that that disciple doth not die, ²³ yet Jesus did not say to him, that he doth not die, but, `If him I will to remain till I come, what—to thee?’ ²⁴ this is the disciple who is testifying concerning these things, and he wrote these things, and we have known that his testimony is true. ²⁵ And there are also many other things—as many as Jesus did—which, if they may be written one by one, not even the world itself I think to have place for the books written. Amen. 

Peter was again tempted to withdraw from his assignment to feed the true humanity. He was supposed to fellowship with the Gentiles, not withdraw from those souls being regenerated by the Holy Spirit.

Galatians 2:11-21

¹¹ And when Peter came to Antioch, I stood up against him t o his face, because he was blameworthy, ¹² for before certain (Jews) came from James, he was eating with the nations, but when they came, he was withdrawing and separating himself, fearing those of the circumcision, ¹³ and joined his hypocrisy also did the other Jews, so that even Barnabas was carried away by their hypocrisy. ¹⁴ But when I saw that they are not walking uprightly in the truth of the good news, I said to Peter before all, `If thou, being a Jew, in the manner of the nations dost live, and not in the manner of the Jews, why do you compel the nations to Judaize? ¹⁵ we by nature Jews, and not sinners of the nations, ¹⁶ have also known that humanity is not declared righteous by works of law, if not through the faith of Jesus Christ, also we in Christ Jesus did trust, that we would be declared righteous by the faith of Christ, and not by works of law, therefore no flesh shall be declared righteous by works of law.’ ¹⁷ And if, seeking to be declared righteous in Christ, we ourselves also were found sinners, is then Christ a ministrant of sin? let it not be! ¹⁸ for if the things I tore down, these again I build up, a transgressor I set myself forth; ¹⁹ for I through law, did die, that to God I may live; ²⁰ with Christ I have been crucified, and live no more do I, and Christ doth live in me; and that which I now live in the flesh—in the faith I live of the Son of God, who did love me and did give himself for me; ²¹ I do not make void the grace of God, for if righteousness be through law—then Christ died in vain. 

From his first encounter with Yeshua, Peter was promised a more meaningful occupation; fishers of true humanity.

Matthew 4:18-20

YLT ¹⁸ And Jesus, walking by the sea of Galilee, saw two brothers, Simon named Peter and Andrew his brother, casting a drag into the sea—for they were fishers— ¹⁹ and he saith to them, `Come ye after me, and I will make you fishers of men,’ ²⁰ and they, immediately, having left the nets, did follow him.

How could Peter ever again deny fellowship to people because they weren’t Jews by nature? After the sheet vision, gentiles also received the Holy Spirit, just as Jews had. ‘Jews by nature’ means born naturally into the Jewish constitution. They were the ones entrusted with the Word of God. The purpose of the sheet vision was to convince Jews to no longer separate God’s people by national or natural constitution. The Holy spirit was now the uniting factor in the ‘Jewish’ body of Christ. When Peter receives the vision, the sea is already gone from the four original living souls. Only heaven and earth creations are envisioned. Even during the transition of the covenants, the sea is already disappearing.

Acts 10:1-11:18

LITV ¹ But a certain man named Cornelius was in Caesarea, a centurion of a cohort being called Italian, ² one devout and fearing God, with all his household, both doing many alms to the people and praying continually to God. ³ About the ninth hour of the day, he saw plainly in a vision an angel of God coming to him, and saying to him, Cornelius! ⁴ And he was staring at him, and becoming terrified he said, What is it, Sir? And he said to him, Your prayers and your alms went up for a memorial before God. ⁵ And now send men to Joppa and call for Simon who is surnamed Peter. ⁶ This one is lodged with one Simon, a tanner, whose house is by the sea. He will tell you what you must do.⁷ And when the angel speaking to Cornelius went away, calling two of his servants and a devout soldier of those continually waiting on him, ⁸and having explained all things to them, he sent them to Joppa. ⁹ And on the morrow, these passing along on the road, and drawing near to the city, Peter went up on the roof to pray about the sixth hour. ¹⁰ And he became hungry and wished to taste food . But as they were preparing, an ecstasy fell on him. ¹¹ And he saw the heaven being opened and a certain vessel like a great sheet coming down on him, being bound by four corners, and let down onto the earth; ¹² in which were all the four-footed animals of the earth, and the wild beasts, and the creeping things, and the birds of the heaven. ¹³ And a voice came to him, Rise up, Peter, slay and eat. ¹⁴ But Peter said, Not at all, Lord, because I never did eat anything common or unclean. ¹⁵ And again a voice came to him a second time, What things God made clean, you do not make common. ¹⁶ And this happened three times, and the vessel was taken up into the heaven again. ¹⁷ And as Peter was doubting within himself what the vision which he saw might be, even behold, the men who had been sent from Cornelius stood on the porch asking out the house of Simon. ¹⁸ And calling out, they inquired if Simon being surnamed Peter is lodged here. ¹⁹ And as Peter pondered concerning the vision, the Spirit said to him, Behold, three men are seeking you. ²⁰ But rising up, go down and go with them, not discriminating, because I have sent them. ²¹ And going down to the men, the ones sent from Cornelius to him, Peter said, Behold, I am the one you seek. What is the cause for which you are here? ²² And they said, Cornelius, a centurion, a just man and one fearing God, and being testified to by all the nation of the Jews, was divinely warned by a holy angel to call you to his house and to hear words from you. ²³ Then calling them in, he lodged them . And on the morrow Peter went out with them. And some of the brothers from Joppa accompanied him. ²⁴And on the morrow they entered Caesarea. And Cornelius was awaiting them, having called together his relatives and his intimate friends. ²⁵ And as Peter was coming in, meeting him, Cornelius fell at his feet and worshiped. ²⁶ But Peter lifted him up, saying, Stand up! I myself am also a man. ²⁷ And talking with him, he went in and found many having come together. ²⁸ And he said to them, You know how unlawful it is for a man, a Jew, to unite with or to come near to one of another race. Yet God showed to me not to call a man common or unclean. ²⁹ Therefore, I also came without complaint, being summoned. Then I ask for what reason did you send for me? ³⁰ And Cornelius said, From the fourth day until this hour I have been fasting, and the ninth hour I was praying in my house. And, behold, a man stood before me in bright clothing. ³¹ And he said, Cornelius, your prayer was heard and your alms were remembered before God. ³²Therefore, send to Joppa and call for Simon who is surnamed Peter; this one is lodged in the house of Simon, a tanner, by the sea. Having come, he will speak to you. ³³ Then at once I sent to you, and you did well to come. Now then, we are all present before God to hear all the things having been commanded you by God. ³⁴ And opening his mouth, Peter said, Truly I see that God is not an accepter of faces, ³⁵but in every nation the one fearing Him and working righteousness is acceptable to Him. ³⁶ The Word which He sent to the sons of Israel, preaching the gospel of peace through Jesus Christ, this One is Lord of all. ³⁷ You know the thing that happened throughout all Judea, beginning from Galilee after the baptism that John proclaimed, ³⁸Jesus the One from Nazareth, how God anointed Him with the Holy Spirit and with power, who went about doing good, and healing all those having been oppressed by the Devil, because God was with Him.³⁹ And we are witnesses of all things which He did, both in the country of the Jews, and in Jerusalem. They did away with Him, hanging Him on a tree. ⁴⁰ God raised up this One the third day and gave to Him to become visible; ⁴¹ not to all the people, but to witnesses, the ones having been before hand-picked by God, to us who ate and drank with Him after His rising again from the dead. ⁴² And He commanded us to proclaim to the people and to witness solemnly that it is He who has been marked out by God to be Judge of the living and the dead. ⁴³ To this One all the Prophets witness, so that through His name everyone believing into Him will receive remission of sins. ⁴⁴ As Peter was yet speaking these words, the Holy Spirit fell on all those hearing the Word. ⁴⁵ And the faithful of the circumcision were amazed, as many as came with Peter, because the gift of the Holy Spirit was poured out on the nations also. ⁴⁶ For they heard them speaking in languages and magnifying God. Then Peter answered, ⁴⁷ Can anyone forbid the water that these not be baptized, who the Holy Spirit received, even as we also? ⁴⁸ And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord. Then they asked him to remain some days. ¹¹¹ And the apostles and the brothers who were throughout Judea heard that the nations also received the Word of God. ² And when Peter went up to Jerusalem, those of the circumcision contended with him, ³ saying, You went in to uncircumcised men and ate with them. ⁴ But beginning, Peter set out to them in order, saying, ⁵ I was being in the city of Joppa, praying. And in an ecstasy, I saw a vision: a certain vessel was coming down, like a huge sheet, being let down by four corners out of the heaven; and it came as far as me. ⁶ Looking intently on this, I observed. And I saw the four-footed animals of the earth, and the wild beasts, and the creeping things, and the birds of the heaven. ⁷ And I heard a voice saying to me, Peter, rise up, slay and eat. ⁸ But I said, Not at all, Lord, because never has anything common or unclean entered into my mouth. ⁹ But a voice answered me the second time out of the heaven, What God has cleansed, you do not make common. ¹⁰ And this took place three times, and all things were pulled up into the heaven again. ¹¹ And, behold, at once three men stood at the house in which I was, having been sent from Caesarea to me. ¹² And the Spirit said to me to go with them, not discriminating. And these six brothers also were with me, and we went into the man’s house. ¹³ And he told us how he saw an angel in his house, standing and saying to him, Send men to Joppa, and send for Simon who is surnamed Peter, ¹⁴ who will speak words to you by which you and all your household will be saved. ¹⁵ And in my beginning to speak, the Holy Spirit fell on them, as also on us in the beginning. ¹⁶ And I recalled the Word of the Lord, how He said, John indeed baptized with water, but you shall be baptized in the Holy Spirit. ¹⁷ Then if God gave the same gift to them as also to us, believing on the Lord Jesus Christ, and I, who was I to be able to prevent God? ¹⁸And hearing these things, they kept silent and glorified God, saying, Then God also has granted to the nations repentance unto life.

The original creation was represented in the sheet vision, except for old humanity and the sea creatures. Peter was to continue to bring all creatures into his new covenant human body. Old covenant humanity was the first to receive the gospel. In Christ all humanized animals regenerate. Peter already ate food from the sea with Yeshua in His new covenant body. Yeshua reinstated Peter as a fisher of men at that post-resurrection fellowship meal by the sea. Yeshua’s last fellowship meal in the old covenant embodied His old covenant sacrifice. It was a fellowship in the death of the old humanity. At this new covenant meal, Peter was recommissioned to feed all God’s sheep in the new creation.

It was a fellowship in the death of the sea. Peter himself was the first to break the national barriers and accept Gentiles into the Jewish only church. Yeshua had other sheep that weren’t Jews. The new Jerusalem that spans heaven and earth is not made with hands and it’s gates are always open to all people. It is better than the old Jerusalem. It is kept incorruptible in heaven for you. The old corrupted Jerusalem wasn’t destroyed until after the gospel went to all creatures: to all creations, to all nations, to all the land and the ends of the cosmos. Which is exactly what Peter’s vision initiated. Only then would the end of the old age come. The worldwide evangelists were the 12 apostles and the 12 tribes in diaspora. The 12 tribes laid the foundation and the 12 apostles opened the gates.

“End” is telos. “Then comes the telos“, means fulfillment, end purpose or aimed at goal. That is not the end of the world. It is the end of the old covenant, which was not a bad thing for the new covenant Jews. The destruction of the old followed the consummation of the new covenant creation.
