A response to document from Chabod entitled: Searching for G-d, Can “hide and seek” work if the seeker stops searching?
I responded, with only 1000 characters, to only one portion, that of a quote from Deuteronomy 31:18 “….I will surely hide My face in that day…..” The actual text is “18 And I will surely hide My face in that day for all the evil which they shall have wrought, in that they are turned unto other gods.” The context of this verse is contained in Deuteronomy 31:16-18.
I will strive to recap –Moses is told that the Children he […]
Great question, if it is real.
Belief?
Moses failed at the second event of the water from the rock. Many have declared different things were the cause. I have not found their choices fruitful or even true, when GOD HIMSELF made the charge. Numbers 20:12 And the LORD said unto Moses and Aaron: ‘Because ye believed not in Me, to sanctify Me in the eyes of the children of Israel, therefore ye shall not bring this assembly into the land which I have given them.’ The word ‘believed’ in this case from the Hebrew is better translated TRUST, hence “Because […]
Exodus 24: 3. . . . ‘All the words which the LORD hath spoken will we do.’ With all they(Hebrews and those with them) saw and experienced up to this moment, they still made an idol and worshiped it.
Belief is a motivator.
Knowledge of GOD, while it is not required, as long as you are willing to keep HIS LAWS and TEACHINGS in all things. However, from the beginning we humans, being created from the dust to transport the BREATH OF GOD(soul) have been in need of more justification, and encouragement not to give in to our dirt(evil).
When […]
You Should Know and Understand This:
First, THERE IS, AWAYS WAS, AND WILL ONLY BE ONE GOD. Each of of us is required to choose and the choice is completely personal, you are either for GOD or against GOD(anything other than GOD is against GOD). You have the Freedom and the Consequences to chose GOD or Not god. This is the freedom and responsibility, that The MASTER OF THE UNIVERSE has given each of us.
Second, what it means to choose: when we do as GOD has said to do (Find Laws, Explanations and Teachings in Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus and […]
Why do you cry unto me?
Exodus 14:15 And the LORD said unto Moses: ‘Wherefore criest thou unto Me? speak unto the children of Israel, that they go forward. 16 And lift thou up thy rod, and stretch out thy hand over the sea, and divide it; and the children of Israel shall go into the midst of the sea on dry ground.
This is another WOW, moment for me. The LORD is not speaking to the Hebrews, but to Moses. Moses has just told the Hebrews: Exodus 14:13 And Moses said unto the people: ‘Fear ye not, stand still, […]
GOD is the Ultimate Conservative in that:
Conservative definition:
Adjective: 1 holding to traditional attitudes and values and cautious about change or innovation., typically in relation to politics or religion.
Noun: 1 a person who is averse to change and holds to traditional values and attitudes, typically in relation to politics.
Parts in italics are political or religious do not add to this understanding.
HIS Rules, Laws and Teachings, DO NOT CHANGE.
HIS JUDGEMENT IS: do what is right or you are wrong.
How do you know what is RIGHT, HE TOLD US BY THE WRITINGS OF MOSES. –THEY HAVE […]
Making Space for HASHEM, or making space for TORAH?
The very thought of this question, brings up even more questions but, I will strive to stay on topic for this one.
The approach I will use to explain this is: Identify desired(D) state; Identify current(C) state; My Steps(M), those steps I take to get C = D.
Desire state, are we there yet? If C = D success, If C < D, Start at current state and do it again. You will get there!
Desired state = Ready for HASHEM to show me, that which I need to SEE.(This is […]
Regret, what is it for? ______________________________________________________________ http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/regret 1re·gret verb \ri-ˈgret\ : to feel sad or sorry about (something that you did or did not do) : to have regrets about (something) —used formally and in writing to express sad feelings about something that is disappointing or unpleasant. ______________________________________________________________
Can there be any hope in seeking forgiveness for wrongs I may have done, if I am unwilling to regret in my life? making improvement in the world, your life or your soul.
I observe that many of us refuse to have regret over what we have done. We refuse to review […]
I have been ask to write about what the Torah says regarding homosexuality. This is a Fiery Topic anymore, what with political correctness and pushing against anyone that speaks out on the subject.
So I must start by saying, that I am aware of only ONE GOD, THE LIVING GOD OF ISRAEL; the GOD of Abraham, the GOD of Isaac and the GOD of Jacob; and to the point MY GOD. I am concerned with keeping HIS LAWS and TEACHING, because HE is the JUDGE of my actions and my defense. It is HIS LAWS that I write about. […]
A Different Reading of Tanach Stage 1
Originally posted March 13, 2009, Friday.
During the story of creation, each thing(s) that is made is examined, found(known or seen) to be good(correct) before that day’s work is finished. Except when the LORD made man(the gardener), formed from the dirt by the LORD who caused HIS breath to be in the man.(Hence- “Leviticus 11:45 For I am the LORD that brought you out of the land of Egypt, to be your God: ye shall therefore be holy, for I am holy.” OR “Leviticus 19:2 Speak unto all the congregation of the children […]
