Verse of the Day
Barashiyth 4:6–7 (Genesis)
And Yahuah said to Qayin: "Why are you angry, and why has your face fallen? If you Yatab, will there not be acceptance? But if you do not Yatab, Khata crouches at the opening. Its desire is toward you, but you must Mashal over it."
Meaning
Yahuah יהוה · Y-H-W-H · Ya-hu-ah
The personal Name of the Creator, written with the four letters yod, he, waw, he. It is His Name, not a title.
Yatab טוב · T-W-B · Tub
Good, goodness, what is beneficial. Yatab is to do good.
Khata חטא · Kh-T-A · Kha-ta
To miss the mark, to sin; failing to meet Yahuah's standard. Khataim are sins.
Mashal משל · M-Sh-L · Ma-shal
A proverb, parable, or comparison; a saying that instructs by likeness.
Question answered: Is Khata something a person is helpless to resist? No. Qayin is told he must Mashal over it.
