Mark 12:10 versus Psalm 118:22 then the scripture being referred to is the out-of-
               time, eternal scripture-in-Heaven, a mysterious material manifestation but in
               Heaven, eternally complete (Rev 22:18-19) and God (Psalm 40:7, Isaiah 65:6, Heb
               10:7). In this context the Word is quoting itself i.e. Mark 12:10 when first spoken
               by Jesus was Jesus quoting Mark 12:10 as written-in-heaven.


               The same applies again to Matthew 2:23 paraphrasing Judges 13:5, 7, 16:17.  This
               is also a classic instance of transference in time and person as the Judges reference
               is to Samson whilst Matthew is referring to Jesus.


               The above principles apply to the ‘quotes’ of Jesus in Matthew 4:7 with
               Deuteronomy 6:16 (Ye -addressed to many; versus ‘Thou’ - Jesus is addressing
               one person only, the devil) and Matthew 4:10 with Dueteronomy 6:13 which has
               more substantial changes.

               Psalm 78:2 is not re-'quoted' exactly in Matthew 13:35 but this refers to what the
               prophet ‘said’ not what is ‘written’ (and is not recorded in the Word-in-the-
               material until quoted by Jesus).  Likewise Matthew 27:9-10 and Zechariah 11:12-
               13.  Obviously whenever something was said that was the Word and therefore
               written in Heaven though not yet part of the materially written scriptures on-earth,
               and therefore revealed to Man in-the-material, that statement was made under the
               inspiration of the Holy Ghost (2 Pet 1:21).  We see this in the inexact (Rev 22:18-

               19) 'quotation' of David made by Jesus ref Mark 12:36 (on, till) and Psalm 110:1
               (at, until).  The Word must and does pass its own test (Rev 22:18-19) by the
               interpretations given above which are themselves given by the Holy Ghost (2 Pet
               1:21).

               Peter’s denials illustrate how much care is needed in understanding the Word.  His
               exact words are recorded in the Word.  Jesus’ point was that he would deny Him a
               minimum of 3 times before the cock crew (Mat 26:34, Luke 22:34.. ‘knowest’).
               Working from his exact denials that are recorded we know that the minimum is in
               fact more than 3 as the exact words of each denial differ more than three times.
               Four or more must contain three and Jesus chose to concentrate on that number, 3,
               as it is used throughout scripture to indicate spiritual completeness (1 John 5:7-8).


               Testimony


               There are, only, three witnesses in Earth to the status of Man before God and able
               to guide Man.  These are the Spirit (the Holy Ghost - 1 John 5:7-8), the Water (the
               Word - Jer 2:13, John 4:14, 6:35) and the redeeming blood of Jesus (1 John 5:8).
