About Selah Social
Selah – this word occurs 71 times in the King James Version of the Holy Bible in the Book of Psalms (in 39 of the Psalms). It also appears 3 times in the third chapter of the book of Habakkuk.
This word is very unique in its translation and it has been given the following meanings:
“Stop and Listen” or “pause and think of that” the latter is from the Amplified Bible.
Selah, [or celah], is from the primary Hebrew root word [calah] which means 'to hang,' with the implication being to measure (by weighing). This is readily understood because in Biblical history, money, food and other valuables were 'weighed' by hanging or suspending them on a type of balance (the equivalent of our measuring scale) to determine their value.
We believe that these are the last days and that at any moment the Lord Jesus Christ will rapture his bride from the earth. This bride is to be without spot, blemish, wrinkle, or any such thing.
The concept of this social web site is to provide a place for believers to meet and encourage one another. In this context, let everything that is said and posted on this web site be properly weighed and measured. Additionally let us all give thoughtful reflection and weighing of what we obtain as well from this site.
