The first instance of hand and forehead is in Exodus (Exodus 13:6-9). The “it” in verse 9 refers to keeping the feast of unleavened bread, that is the DOING referred to in verse 8. Observing the feast is, itself, as a sign upon the hand (the hands DO the preparation) and a memorial between the eyes (a remembering of what the LORD did for the Israel...
Solomon wrote that “by mercy and truth iniquity is purged” (Proverbs 16:6). He also wrote the following: We cannot be merciful and truthful if our necks are stiffened and our hearts hardened, thus “bind” is not literal and “write” cannot be literal since it refers to the table of the heart. Keeping God’s words, commandments and law require a doing,...
Everything the Lord does, He does with his right hand. This is the hand of strength, righteousness, salvation, wrath and creation.

The engraved plate on Aaron’s forehead is literal as it’s part of the high priest’s garments. The words “holiness ...
The great whore that rides the beast in Revelation has her name written on her forehead and, like Israel the whore in the Book of Jeremiah, she’s not ashamed of her whoredoms. Going back one chapter in Jeremiah, Israel was considered holiness to the Lord, a people called to be separate, but because of her backsliding and whoredoms the Lord wrote he...
In Chronicles, when king Uzziah was puffed up with pride, because of his great victories and reputation, he went in to the house of the Lord to burn incense, something that was not lawful for anyone to do save for the priests who tried to stop Uzziah. The king became very angry and immediately the Lord struck him with leprosy in his forehead (2 Chr...
In these examples — the high priest, the great whore, Israel and Judah, and king Uzziah — we can see that what’s in the forehead is a sign of whether one is clean or unclean, whether one has been washed clean by the Lord or whether one is spiritually unclean. Aaron was clean when wearing the engraved metal plate; the great whore was full of abomina...
When the Lord sent Ezekiel to speak to the house of Israel, He knew He was giving him a hard task because they would not hearken even unto the Lord. Before the Lord tells Ezekiel what to say to the house of Israel, He tells him to eat a roll (scroll). Scrolls are filled with words and the scroll given by the Lord would have been filled with His wor...
We all know of the prophesied mark of the beast in the Book of Revelation, that it will be in the right hand or forehead, and that it’s connected with the ability to buy or sell.
