Wormwood

Wormwood Rev 8:11 And the name of the star is called Wormwood and the third part of the waters became wormwood and many men died of the waters , because they were made bitter . Now P.M. teaches that the Star called Wormwood that falls from heaven is Satan (luke10:18 ) and the Waters are people that become Wormwood that is Bitter Rev.8 is the only time this Word "apsinthion" is used for Wormwood:Name of the Star that fallsAll the other times the term Wormwood is used its the Word la'anah - "Bitterness"So what else does scripture say about this Bitterness or Bitter Water can it give us a clue to how Satan's Bitterness WormWood causes men to die. I found some interesting things that seems to tie in with Revelation And the coming of Satan and dying in the spiritual sense Interestingly enough, the "test" to uncover adultery (Numbers 5:11-31) is the administration of bitter water -- wormwood. If the husband becomes Jealous and thinks the wife has commited Adulty. He can bring her before the priest and he will perform a ceromy with the "Bitter Water" We are warned in the spiritual sense not to be comitting adultry with the wrong husband (Anichrist) We are also told we have a Jealous God. (Notice how many words/thoughts we see here in these verses that are also connected with Satan in other verses)NUM.5: 11 Andthe LORD spake unto Moses, saying, 12Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, If any man's wife go aside, and commit a trespass against him, 13And a man lie with her carnally, and it be hid from the eyes of her husband, and be kept close, and she be defiled, and there be no witness against her, neither she be taken with the manner; 14And the spirit of jealousy come upon him, and he be jealous of his wife, and she be defiled: or if the spirit of jealousy come upon him, and he be jealous of his wife, and she be not defiled: 15Then shall the man bring his wife unto the priest, and he shall bring her offering for her, the tenth part of an ephah of barley meal; he shall pour no oil upon it, nor put frankincense thereon; for it is an offering of jealousy, an offering of memorial, bringing iniquity to remembrance. 16And the priest shall bring her near, and set her before the LORD: 17And the priest shall take holy water in an earthen vessel; and of the dust that is in the floor of the tabernacle the priest shall take, and put it into the water: Gen 3:14 And the LORD God said unto the serpent, Because thou hast done this, thou [art] cursed above all cattle, and above every beast of the field; upon thy belly shalt thou go, and dust shalt thou eat all the days of thy life:18And the priest shall set the woman before the LORD, and uncover the woman's head, and put the offering of memorial in her hands, which is the jealousy offering: and the priest shall have in his hand the bitter water that causeth the curse: The priest uncovers the womans head before giving the Woman the Bitter Water that causes the curse (We are told the woman is to cover head because of the Angels 1Cr 11:10) to protect them against the Wormwood of Rev8i.e the angels.. 19And the priest shall charge her by an oath, and say unto the woman, If no man have lain with thee, and if thou hast not gone aside to uncleanness with another instead of thy husband, be thou free from this bitter water that causeth the curse: 20But if thou hast gone aside to another instead of thy husband, and if thou be defiled, and some man have lain with thee beside thine husband: 21Then the priest shall charge the woman with an oath of cursing, and the priest shall say unto the woman, The LORD make thee a curse and an oath among thy people, when the LORD doth make thy thigh to rot, and thy belly to swell; 22And this water that causeth the curse shall go into thy bowels, to make thy belly to swell, and thy thigh to rot: And the woman shall say, Amen, amen. 23And the priest shall write these curses in a book, and he shall blot them out with the bitter water: Rev 3:5 He that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels.24And he shall cause the woman to drink the bitter water that causeth the curse: and the water that causeth the curse shall enter into her, and become bitter. 25Then the priest shall take the jealousy offering out of the woman's hand, and shall wave the offering before the LORD, and offer it upon the altar: 26And the priest shall take an handful of the offering, even the memorial thereof, and burn it upon the altar, and afterward shall cause the woman to drink the water. 27And when he hath made her to drink the water, then it shall come to pass, that, if she be defiled, and have done trespass against her husband, that the water that causeth the curse shall enter into her, and become bitter, and her belly shall swell, and her thigh shall rot: and the woman shall be a curse among her people. So the Bitter Water that causes the curse works from the inside out and if she is found guilty she shall become a cusre to her people. This should put us in mind of the time when Satan and the Angels are here on earth should we uncover our heads, become guilty of spritual adulty with the false christ we have taken in the Bitter Water and the curse blots our name out of the Book Here are a few points other points regarding this subject taken from various sources: 1. The woman was to be "wearied" by holding her husband's Temple offering of "the tenth part of an ephah of barley meal" (which is an omer [Exo 16:36], the quantity of manna for one man every day [Exo 16:16]--maybe has something to do with Rev 6:5,6 which speaks of the balances and the measure of wheat and barley?). Barley was considered food for the beasts. 2. No oil or frankincense was to be used because oil and frankincense denote joy and gladness and this was a solemn affair (again, maybe Rev 6:5,6 -- hurt not the oil and the wine?) 3. Dust from the Temple floor was put in the water (where/when is Satan (the star called Wormwood in the temple but when he is Antichrist the fake husband ) 4. The woman was given black clothing if she was wearing white, all her ornaments were taken away, she was unveiled and her hair messed up (this is in direct contrast to the undefiled bride). 5.. The woman was forced to drink this water (the waters of Marah( Bitter ) were changed from bitter to sweet by having a tree [Jesus, tree of life] **cast** into it [Exo 15:22-27]). Exodus 15:22-27--The people complain about bitter water: So Moses (drawn) brought Israel (God prevails) from the Red sea, and they went out into the wilderness of Shur (wall); and they went three days in the wilderness, and found no water. And when they came to Marah, they could not drink of the waters of Marah, for they were bitter: therefore the name of it was called Marah. Marah = "bitter"1) the spring with bitter water which was 3 days travel from the crossing place of the Red Sea in the peninsula of Sinai And the people murmured against Moses, saying, What shall we drink? And he cried unto the LORD; and the LORD showed him a tree, which when he had cast into the waters, the waters were made sweet: there he made for them a statute and an ordinance, and there he proved them, And said, If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of the LORD thy God, and will do that which is right in his sight, and wilt give ear to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put none of these diseases upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians: for I am the Lord that healeth thee. And they came to Elim (palms), where were twelve wells of water, and threescore and ten palm trees: and they encamped there by the waters. 6. The day that the draught of a women suspected of adultery was administered was on the 15th of Adar (around February). If she was guilty her belly swelled and her thigh rotted. When they saw her swelling up they'd shout "Cast her out, cast her out that she might not defile the court" The significance of the belly and thigh being mentioned is another study in itself, but basically the belly is where "rivers of living water flow" to those who believe on Jesus (John 7:38--see also Job 15:35; 20:23; Dan 2:32; Jonah; Rom 16:18; Rev 10:9) and the thigh is where the sword is gird and where promises are attested to (Psa 45:3; Gen 24:2; 32:32; Rev 19:16). 7.that the water that causeth the curse shall enter into her, [and become] bitter; the water drank by her, and having the curses scraped into it, shall enter into her, and operate and produce bitter and dreadful effects: and her belly shall swell, and her thigh shall rot; not through any natural virtue in the water, or what is put into it, either the dust of the floor of the tabernacle, or the scrapings of the parchment roll, these could have no physical influence to produce such effects; but they must be ascribed to a supernatural cause, the power and curse of God attending this draught, ...Less then, how could an innocent woman escape the effects of it? Then this must be allowed to be miraculous and supernatural, The Jews say, as soon, or before she had made an end of drinking: the water, the effects appeared; her face turned pale immediately, her eyes bolted out, and she was filled with veins, her body swelled, and they called out, Cast her out, cast her out, that she may not defile the court.The text seems to intimate, as if the operation was immediate; yea, moreover, they say that as the waters searched her, so they searched him (the adulterer), because it is said twice, "shall enter, shall enter"; and that the same effects appeared in him as in her,....... but the effect showed up in neither the woman or him she committed adutry with unless the husband was also innocent of adultry; for if he was not pure from the same sin himself, the waters would not search his wife for a sin he too was guilty of the same sin .....8. And if the woman be not defiled, but be clean, &c.] If she is not guilty of adultery, but pure from that sin: then she shall be free; from the effects of the bitter water; they shall have no such influence upon her, but she shall be as soured and healthful as ever; nay, the Jewish writers say more so, that if she had any sickness or disease upon her she would now be freed from it, her splendour shall shine, the brightness and beauty of her countenance: her husband should receive her gladly, and she should live comfortably with him hereafter, and the blessing of God would be upon her, which would still be a confirmation of her chastity. So it will be for those not found guilty of spritual adultry with the fake husband ..Satan in his role of Antichrist
