Spoke 13 1 Chronicles, Habakkuk, Philemon

Wherefore David blessed the LORD before all the congregation: and David said, Blessed be thou, LORD God of Israel our father, for ever and ever. Thine, O LORD, is the greatness, and the power, and the glory, and the victory, and the majesty: for all that is in the heaven and in the earth is thine; thine is the kingdom (mamlakah), O LORD, and thou art exalted as head above all. Both riches and honour come of thee, and thou reignest over all; and in thine hand is power and might; and in thine hand it is to make great, and to give strength unto all. Now therefore, our God, we thank thee, and praise thy glorious name. ................1 Chronicles 29:10ff (Spoke 13, Cycle 1)

The Hebrew name of the Thirteenth Book, Divrei HaYamim, means Words of the Days. It is a common phrase, always translated as "chronicles" in the KJV. It begins with genealogies from Adam to King David (and beyond) and then recounts the history of his reign, ending with his death. But it is no mere repetition of facts recorded elsewhere. There are very significant details included only in the Thirteenth Book that link to primary themes based on Mem KeyWords, the most notable being the prayer of David quoted above, centered on the KeyWord mamlakah (kingdom). God used a variation of this KeyWord (malkuth) three times in the center of the alphabetic sequence of AV Psalm 145. These consecutive verses spell malki (my king) and span the reign of King David from his ascension to the throne in 2 Samuel (Spoke 10) to the final record of his death 1 Chronicles (Spoke 13). This is a primary example of the self-descriptive nature of the Wheel (BW book pg 104). It is filled with many of the KeyWords (hyperlinked) that David used in his prayer in 1 Chronicles as it speaks of God's mighty power and the glory of His everlasting Kingdom (Malkuth):

Central Alphabetic Sequence of AV Psalm 145
	10 Yod	All thy works shall praise (yadah) thee, O LORD; and thy saints shall bless thee.
	11 Kaph	They shall speak of the glory (kavod) of thy KINGDOM (malkuth), and talk of thy power;
	12 Lamed	To make known (l'hodia) to the sons of men his mighty acts, and the glorious majesty of his KINGDOM (malkuth).
	13 Mem	Thy KINGDOM (malkuth) is an everlasting KINGDOM (malkuth), and thy dominion endureth throughout all generations.

These four verses from this one Alphabetic Psalm display the thematic progress from Spoke 10 to Spoke 13 on Cycle 1, which was discussed in some detail in previous pages. As usual, the Alphabetic KeyWords are highlighted in bold italics. The other KeyWords, which are interspersed in David's prayer in 1 Chronicles, are underlined. This is a very rich area for research, but unfortunately time prohibits further discussion right now.

David's prayer, uniquely recorded in 1 Chronicles, gives a most exalted application of the Mem Prefix. In the verses immediately preceding his prayer, he lists all the money, gold, silver, brass, iron, lumber, and precious stones that he had "prepared for the holy house" so his son Solomon would have the raw materials from which to draw to build the Temple. But David knew it was God, and God alone, who had given him all these building materials:

Both riches and honour come of thee (millepheynka), and thou reignest over all; and in thine hand is power and might; and in thine hand it is to make great, and to give strength unto all. Now therefore, our God, we thank thee, and praise thy glorious name. But who (mi) am I, and what (mah) is my people, that we should be able to offer so willingly after this sort? for all things come of thee (mimmka), and of thine own (miyadka) have we given thee. For we are strangers before thee, and sojourners, as were all our fathers: our days on the earth are as a shadow, and there is none abiding. O LORD our God, all this store that we have prepared to build thee an house for thine holy name cometh of thine hand (miyadka), and is all thine own. .......................1 Chronicles 29:12ff (Spoke 13, Cycle 1)
