The Power of the Dog ... Psalm 22:20
I would like to make it clear from the very start, we are not talking about Fido, the family pup, here. Rather, Psalm 22 speaks of a particular kind of dog. This Psalm is very important for recognizing the identity of “the power of the dog”. At Acts 2:29-30 we are informed that David was a prophet, and his prophecy of Christ at Psalm 2:7 validates that fact. Acts 2:29-30 reads: “29 Men and brethren, let me freely speak unto you of the patriarch David, that he is both dead and buried, and his sepulchre is with us unto this day. 30 Therefore being a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn with an oath to him, that of the fruit of his loins, according to the flesh, he would raise up Christ to sit on his throne ...” Not only did David prophecy that Christ would rule over the Israel nations (mistranslated “heathen”) at verse 8 of Psalm 2, but in Psalm 22, David prophesied of Christ’s crucifixion by “the power of the dog”. Some people read their Bible from cover to cover and never comprehend to whom “the power of the dog” pertains!
Let’s now start by taking some excerpts from Psalm 22, with verses 7, 13, 16, 20: “7 All they that see me laugh me to scorn: they shoot out the lip, they shake the head ... 13 They gaped upon me with their mouths, as a ravening and a roaring lion ... 16 For dogs have compassed me: the assembly of the wicked have inclosed me: they pierced my hands and my feet ... 20 Deliver my soul from the sword; my darling from the power of the dog.” With this essay, one will not be left in the dark for understanding to whom “the power of the dog” refers!
But to understand Psalm 22, one must identify what is meant by the term “dog”, which has several shades of meanings in our Bibles. With this passage, it can only point to one group of people, for that gang can only be those who “pierced my hands and my feet” in reference to Yahshua Christ at His crucifixion.
At this point, many might jump to the conclusion that the Romans were “the power of the dog”, for, in fact, it was the Roman soldiers who drove the spikes and carried out the execution. Rather, it was the half-breed Canaanites who had infiltrated into authority, in both the government of Judaea and the Temple, who represented the “power of the dog”. As Christ labeled the Canaanite woman at Matt. 15:26 a dog-person, so too are the Canaanites of the Old Testament classified as dogs. To accuse the Roman soldiers of the crime of crucifying Christ is tantamount to accusing the executioner who pushes the lever at the electric chair for the crime perpetrated by the criminal. NO, the Romans were not “the power of the dog”. Besides, Christ forgave the Roman soldiers for their part in the crucifixion, but He never forgave the Canaanite-jews! Neither did the apostles, including Paul. Furthermore, the Roman soldiers were of Zarah-Judah – twin brothers to Pharez-Judah – or Christ’s own brotherly kin, or His own family. Once we understand the close family connection of the Romans to Christ, it puts and entirely different view on the crucifixion! In fact, this family tie brings Zechariah 13:6 into clear focus where it says: “And one shall say unto him, What are these wounds in thine hands? Then he shall answer, Those with which I was wounded in the house of my friends.” At Psalm 22, David prophesied His crucifixion, and the party responsible, “the power of the dog”. On the other hand, the Romans were the seed of Abraham, Yahweh’s “friend”, (Isa. 41:8; Strong’s #H-157). To further understand Zech. 13:6, it would be best to refer to the Septuagint Greek translation rather than to rely wholly on the Masoretic text.
By the way, it’s this same “power of the dog” who own and control the Federal Reserve and the Bank of England today. They were Canaanites in the Old Testament and the New, and they are still Canaanites today, pretending to be Israelites (Rev. 2:9 & 3:9). The biggest and most vile joke in the world today is to identify the bad-fig-jews trespassing into Palestine, as Israelites, and calling themselves “Israelis”. Nothing could be further from the truth.
Yahshua Christ Himself identified the Canaanite scribes and Pharisees at Matt. 23:32, where He said to them, “Fill ye up then the measure of your fathers.” A KJV with a good center reference will link this verse to Gen. 15:16 stating, “But in the fourth generation they shall come hither again: for the iniquity of the Amorites is not yet full.” The Amorites were a dominant Canaanite tribe representing all ten named at Gen. 15:19-21: “19 The Kenites, and the Kenizzites, and the Kadmonites, 20 And the Hittites, and the Perizzites, and the Rephaims, 21 And the Amorites, and the Canaanites, and the Girgashites, and the Jebusites.” The most interesting of this mixed group is the Kenite tribe, for they descend from Cain (Strong #’s 7017 & 7014). The “iniquity” of these tribes is the fact that they all mixed their blood with each other, and the Kenites, as a tribe, were the seed of the serpent by Satan’s seduction of Eve (Genesis 4:1 being recognized as a corrupted passage).
Not only does Yahshua Christ identify the bad-fig-jews as being Canaanites, but Paul does likewise at 1 Thess. 2:16, where he states: “Forbidding us to speak to the ethnê (nations) that they might be saved, to fill up their sins alway[s]: for the wrath is come upon them to the uttermost.”
The two verses 13 & 14 of this same chapter leave no doubt as to whom Paul is addressing, and only the Canaanite-jews fit the bill: “14 For ye, brethren, became followers of the assemblies of Yahweh which in Judaea are in Christ Yahshua: for ye also have suffered like things of your own countrymen, even as they have of the [Canaanite]-jews: 15 Who both killed the Master Yahshua, and their own prophets, and have persecuted us; and they please not Yahweh, and are contrary to all men ...”
Paul further identifies these same people as “dogs” at Phil. 3:2 thusly: “Beware of dogs, beware of evil workers, beware of the concision.” With the tag of “dog”, they can be no other than the multiracial Canaanite-jews! Yahshua instructed us at Matt. 7:6: “Give not that which is holy unto the [Canaanite]-dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you.” Paul ran into just such a situation at Acts 13:45: “But when the [Canaanite]-jews saw the multitudes, they were filled with envy, and spake against those things which were spoken by Paul, contradicting and blaspheming.” Titus 1:10-11 says of these Canaanite-jews: “10 For there are many unruly and vain talkers and deceivers, specially they of the circumcision: 11 Whose mouths must be stopped, who subvert whole houses, teaching things which they ought not, for filthy lucre’s sake.” I would point out to the reader that one of the meanings for the term “dog” in the Junior Classic Latin Dictionary under “c|nis” is “parasite”, which fits a Canaanite-jew-dog in every respect. A dog is a scavenger, and when left to run wild, runs in packs. A dog has the natural temperament of a wolf, and when a pack of dogs are hungry enough they have been known to attack children. One of the many ways a Canaanite-jew-dog scavenges is by loaning out money – which costs him nothing – at interest.
Paul, at Phil. 3:2 gives us three identifying marks of the Canaanite-dog-jews as: (1) Beware of dogs, (2) beware of evil workers, and (3) beware of the concision [i.e. circumcision]. Anyone who attempts to relate the bad-fig-Canaanite-jews with the true tribe of Judah simply doesn’t understand Jeremiah chapter 24, where he separates the good racially unmixed Judaeans from those who had mixed racially with the Canaanites to become half-breeds. Jer. 24:2 states: “One basket had very good [racial] figs, even like the figs that are first ripe: and the other basket had very naughty [racial] figs, which could not be eaten, they were so bad.” It is both intellectually and exegetically dishonest to dump both the good racial figs and the naughty racial figs into one basket as most of the clergy and Bible teachers do today. Jeremiah didn’t place them into one basket, nor should we!
Now that we understand that “the power of the dog” represents the bad-fig-Canaanite-jews, pretending to be Israelites, let’s do an overview of Psalm 22 as it relates to their demanding Christ’s crucifixion. I will be using a KJV center reference, (hereinafter KJVCR), and cross-references from The New Treasury of Scripture Knowledge, (hereinafter TNTOSK), along with some of my own commentary:
Psalm 22:1-2 says: “1 My god, my god, why hast thou forsaken me? why art thou so far from helping me, and from the words of my roaring? 2O my God, I cry in the daytime, but thou hearest not; and in the night season, and am not silent”, corresponding to KJVCR Mark 15:34, “My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?” and TNTOSK Matt. 27:46, “And about the ninth hour Yahshua cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?”
Psalm 22:3-5 declares, “3 But thou art holy, O thou that inhabitest the praises of Israel. 4 Our fathers trusted in thee: they trusted, and thou didst deliver them. 5 They cried unto thee, and were delivered: they trusted in thee, and were not confounded.” This shows that Christ was crucified by the Canaanite-dogs, for Israel alone!
Psalm 22:6 says, “6 But I am a worm, and no man; a reproach of men, and despised of the people”, where TNTOSK refers to Isa. 41:14, “Fear not, thou worm Jacob, and ye men of Israel; I will help thee, saith Yahweh, and thy redeemer, the Holy One of Israel”, and KJVCR has Isa. 53:3, “He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not.”
Psalm 22:7-8 states, “7 All they that see me laugh me to scorn: they shoot out the lip, they shake the head, saying, 8 He trusted on Yahweh that he would deliver him: let him deliver him, seeing he delighted in him.” Similar to this both the KJVCR & TNTOSK refer to Matt. 27:39 & 43, “39 And they that passed by reviled him, wagging their heads ... 43 He trusted in Yahweh; let him deliver him now, if he will have him: for he said, I am the Son of Yahweh.” All this sarcasm from the mouths of the Canaanite-dog-people.
Psalm 22:13 states, “They gaped upon me with their mouths, as a ravening and a roaring lion.” Margin, Heb. “opened their mouths against me.” TNTOSK Matt. 26:3-4, “3 Then assembled together the chief priests, and the scribes, and the elders of the people, unto the palace of the high priest, who was called Caiaphas, 4 And consulted that they might take Yahshua by subtilty, and kill him.” Such was “the power of the dog”. Then TNTOSK cross-references to Matt. 26:59-65, “59 Now the chief priests, and elders, and all the council, sought false witness against Yahshua, to put him to death; 60 But found none: yea, though many false witnesses came, yet found they none. At the last came two false witnesses, 61 And said, This fellow said, I am able to destroy the temple of God, and to build it in three days. 62 And the high priest arose, and said unto him, Answerest thou nothing? what is it which these witness against thee? 63 But Yahshua held his peace. And the high priest answered and said unto him, I adjure thee by the living God, that thou tell us whether thou be the Christ, the Son of God. 64 Yahshua saith unto him, Thou hast said: nevertheless I say unto you, Hereafter shall ye see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven. 65 Then the high priest rent his clothes, saying, He hath spoken blasphemy; what further need have we of witnesses? behold, now ye have heard his blasphemy.” You have just witnessed “the power of the dog” at Psalm chapter 22 in action! These were not Israelites, but half-breed Canaanite-dogs.
Psalm 22:16 states, “For dogs have compassed me: the assembly of the wicked have inclosed me: they pierced my hands and my feet.” TNTOSK cross-references Matt. 26:57, “And they that had laid hold on Yahshua led him away to Caiaphas the high priest, where the scribes and the elders were assembled.” To show the reader that we are interpreting these things correctly, Luke 24:44 says: “And he said unto them, These are the words which I spake unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things must be fulfilled, which were written in the law of Moses, and in the prophets, and in the psalms, concerning me.” Here Christ identifies three sources: (1) the law of Moses, (2) the prophets, and (3) the Psalms.
Psalm 22:17 declares, “I may tell all my bones: they look and stare upon me.” TNTOSK cross-references Isa. 52:14 which says, “As many were astonied at thee; his visage was so marred more than any man, and his form more than the sons of men ...”. Strong’s for “visage”: “4758 ha,r>m; mar'eh {mar-eh'} Meaning: 1) sight, appearance, vision 1a) sight, phenomenon, spectacle, appearance, vision 1b) what is seen 1c) a vision (supernatural) 1d) sight, vision (power of seeing).” All of this at “the power of the dog”.
Psalm 22:18 states, “They part my garments among them, and cast lots upon my vesture.” KJVCR cross-references Matt. 27:35, “And they crucified him, and parted his garments, casting lots: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, They parted my garments among them, and upon my vesture did they cast lots.” We must remember here that the Romans did this only at the behest of the Canaanite-jews. Had “the power of the dog” not made their false charges, there would have been no crucifixion! Secondly, one must remember that among the ten Canaanite tribes were the Kenites mentioned at Gen. 15:19-21, which were the descendants of Cain. And Cain, being the son (seed) of Satan, fulfilled Gen. 3:15, “... thy seed ... shall bruise his heel.”
Psalm 22:20 declares, “Deliver my soul from the sword; my darling from the power of the dog.” Of course, this verse is cross-referenced by TNTOSK back to Psalm 22:16, “For dogs have compassed me: the assembly of the wicked have inclosed me: they pierced my hands and my feet” (“they” = the Canaanite-jew-dog-people). Who else was responsible for getting the Romans to do their own dirty work?
Brenton’s LXX reads thusly on Psalm 22:16, 20, “16 For many dogs have compassed me: the assembly of the wicked doers has beset me round: they pierced my hands and my feet. ... 20 Deliver my soul from the sword; my only-begotten one from the power of the dog.”
Another Old Testament passage concerning the Passion of Christ can be found at Isaiah 52:13-53:12. Isa. 52:13 says, “Behold, my servant shall deal prudently, he shall be exalted and extolled, and be very high.” This is speaking of Yahshua Christ, and TNTOSK cross-references this to Ezek. 34:11-12 stating, “11 For thus saith Yahweh God; Behold, I, even I, will both search my sheep, and seek them out. 12 As a shepherd seeketh out his flock in the day that he is among his sheep that are scattered; so will I seek out my sheep, and will deliver them out of all places where they have been scattered in the cloudy and dark day.” TNTOSK links Ezek. 34:11 to Luke 19:10, which says, “For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost.” This demands the question, to whom was Christ directing this? Matt. 15:24 will give us the answer: “But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.” Also, the apostle Paul was sent to the ethnê (lost Israel nations, not the Latin word, “Gentiles”).
The Canaanite-dog bad-fig-jews are not Yahweh’s sheep as many in churchianity insist and Yahshua Christ made that quite clear at John 10:25-29: “25 Yahshua answered them, I told you [Canaanite-dogs], and ye believed not: the works that I do in my Father’s name, they bear witness of me. 26 But ye believe not, because ye are not of my sheep, as I said unto you. 27 My [Israel] sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: 28 And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. 29 My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father’s hand.”
At Isaiah 52:14 it says in part, “... his visage was so marred more than any man, and his form more than the sons of men”, for which TNTOSK links to Isa. 50:6, “I gave my back to the smiters, and my cheeks to them that plucked off the hair: I hid not my face from shame and spitting.” All of this happened to Yahshua Christ by the Canaanite-dogs as we have expounded elsewhere in this essay! TNTOSK also links Isa. 52:14 to Matt. 26:67 thusly, “Then did they spit in his face, and buffeted him; and others smote him with the palms of their hands ...” Again, all of this ill-treatment from the Canaanite-jews, (the seed of the serpent at Gen. 3:15)! If there were no seed of the serpent – as many declare today – there was no crucifixion, and thus we have no redemption! The anti-two-seedliners hold a very dangerous antichrist position, as they worship an un-crucified Christ! To deny there was a satanic seedline to bruise Christ is equivalent to denying that God came in the flesh as Christ. Who, then, were the seed (i.e. sperm) of the serpent other than the Canaanite-jews? Christ made it quite clear at John 8:44 that the Canaanite-jews were the genetic offspring of Satan, with the same homicidal agenda as their father. Thus, their entire outlook on life is “contrary to all men” (G-444), as Paul put it at 1 Thess. 2:15. And in order to be “contrary to all men” (G-444), it has to be an attribute that other men (G-435) don’t have! And, as Christ put it, the only way that other men can understand their mental attitude is by their fruits, Matt. 7:16.
Today the entire world is reeling under “the power of the dog”. In our age the Canaanite-jews have achieved complete control over all aspects of life through their monetary, political, religious and racial manipulations. The ultimate agenda of Satan is to intermingle all of the races into one large mongrelized heap of useless refuse. While mongrelization is their primary goal, they use their monetary, their political and their religious systems to accomplish their purpose. Some understand their wicked monetary maneuvering while others see their evil political motives; yet others see through their nefarious religious shenanigans. What many fail to comprehend is: all of these are coming from one source, “the power of the dog”, the same people who were responsible for the crucifixion of Christ! They are the same dog-people who cry “genocide” while they, themselves, are guilty of deicide. They are neither from the house of Israel nor the house of Judah, but are Canaanite-dog people, (Rev. 2:9 & 3:9). There were still a smattering of pureblooded Judahites, Benjamites and Levites left in Judaea at the time of Christ, but they were certainly in the minority!
