The Bible vs The Disobedience Of God's Will. 4-13-2006. |
Exodus 12: 1-8, 11-14.
The Passover Ritual Prescribed.
The Lord said to Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt, "This month
shall stand at the head of your calendar; you shall reckon it the first
month of the year. Tell the whole community of Israel: On the tenth
of this month every one of your families must procure for itself a
lamb, one apiece for each household. If a family is too small for a
whole lamb, it shall join the nearest household in procuring one and
shall share in the lamb in proportion to the number of persons who
partake of it. The lamb must be a year-old male and without blemish.
You may take it from either the sheep or the goats. You shall keep it
until the fourteenth day of this month, and then, with the whole
assembly of Israel present, it shall be slaughtered during the evening
twilight. They shall take some of its blood and apply it to the two
doorposts and the lintel of every house in which they partake of the
lamb. That same night they shall eat its roasted flesh with unleavened
bread and bitter herbs."
"This is how you are to eat it: With your loins girt, sandals on your
feet and your staff in hand, you shall eat like those who are in
flight. It is the Passover of the Lord. For on this same night I will
go through Egypt, striking down every first-born of the land, both man
and beast, and executing judgment on all the gods of Egypt -- I, the
Lord! But the blood will mark the houses where you are. Seeing the
blood, I will pass over you; thus, when I strike the land of Egypt, no
destructive blow will come upon you."

Disobedience of God's will? When prayers aren't answered the common respose
is "it was god's will". Is God's will absolute or isn't it?

In a message sent 'round the world, poured fuel on
the fire with the following:
Exodus 12: 1-8, 11-14.
The Passover Ritual Prescribed.
....
The lamb must be a year-old male and without blemish.
You may take it from either the sheep or the goats.
A lamb is a young sheep. A young goat is a kid.
YHWH really should know better.
....
"This is how you are to eat it: With your loins girt, sandals on your
feet and your staff in hand, you shall eat like those who are in
flight.
IOW, make it to go!
It is the Passover of the Lord. For on this same night I will
go through Egypt, striking down every first-born of the land, both man
and beast, and executing judgment on all the gods of Egypt ...
So YHWH acknowledges that there are other gods.
But the blood will mark the houses where you are. Seeing the
blood, I will pass over you; thus, when I strike the land of Egypt, no
destructive blow will come upon you."
How odd that YHWH wouldn't be able to recognize his own "chosen" people.
Regards,
Josef
