Exodus, Chapter 31 (King James Version) • Christian Answers WebBible This is an attempt to have a separate daily post for the scripture chapter of the day.. although its from a Christian and about the Christian Bible the common wisdom of Christ's teachings is for all to consider and if at the end of time we all find Him there , so be it...
For years, I have opened my bible at random and read a chapter and began commenting on this some time ago.. here... of my own thoughts on parts. etc. and once through a Bible will use a different translation for the next time through.. Its been some time since I read the King James Bible as often more easily and modern translations are used even in our worship services.
Bit all things that have human input do have some bias and it is not always intentionally bad but understanding of history and events change over time.. and we have lost a lot of original understanding that the King James can get us back to that should not be lost as we learn more about other things through archaeological digs etc.
I call this chapter at random MY Bible Horoscope and throughout the day , so often some part is found to have special meaning for events in my personal life as well as human events in the nation and world.
By the time of Christ A lot of original meanings of the Torah ( first 5 books) had been lost to the religious leadership of the day who had gotten them mired in the swamp of corruption of the times and
NO GOVT IN CHARGE of OUT OF CONTROL CORRUPTED CONTRACTORS WHERE THE MOST INNOCENT IN THE ROMAN EMPIRE GOT HARMED , SQUASHED AND CRUCIFIED AS EVEN THE LOCAL OFFICIALS FROM ROME HAD NO WAY TO STAND UP AND DO WHAT WAS RIGHT AND MORAL AND LEGAL UNDER THE LAWS WITH NO SUPPORT FROM ABOVE AND CORRUPTIONS BENEATH..
And too many of them , ended up just as corrupted by the stealing of the peoples monies, assets and enslavement's,
So when Christ came along and preached restoration of the mosaic law, its not unlike many of us now begging for restoration of our governing document be obeyed, the USA Constitution that has been trashed to near non existence with too many millions of lives lost, ruined and public treasury stolen by those allowed foll access with no governing by the real govt to stop the illegal actors and acts.
and often more human parts of the mosaic law, turned into corporal punishments of a carried out death penalty for ones earthly life.. when the fuller meanings was about the killing of the soul....a worse situation for any one..as that is eternal death and damnation .. and not just ending the few decades we live in our human flesh since the fall of Humanity from the Garden of Eden.
VERSE 14 -Opinion
So when one does not honor the Sabbath, then ones soul is not renewed for the next week... of living. and we dishonor our Creator who made us needing to have this time of worship and or renewal .. Most Christians worship on Sunday in a common meeting place.. but Saturday is also an important time for reflection and study ... and rest of the soul.. and Sunday is a time of celebration of Christ's victory over death itself.
By the time of Christ , any infringement of the rules was being met with the most harshest of punishments. to CONTROL THE MASSES BY FEAR OF THOSE IN POWER TO KEEP THAT POWER..
How many in the nearly 2000 years since Moses had the ultimate punishment done for infraction of some of the rules.. Any mentioned in the Bible.,,, The dishonor would be punishment more severe as ones eternal life was affected. ,,. and there are instances of estrangement and exiled from the land over some breaking of the rules,,, rather than every one being killed. Mercy is a part of the Mosaic law and the least among us provided for in some way....
That does not mean that capital punishment was not used for things then we would never consider so harmful to society to warrant now... but
they were more aware and believed that ones eternal life was at sack ....plus some human agendas of control slipped in more and more.. by those in power to stay in power and break the first and 10 th commandments of FORGETTING THAT WHEN ONE HOLDS A POSITION OF AUTHORITY ONE IS NOT TO ABUSE (covet) IT.. and some voters yesterday... made it known they did not like the actions of some who lost their jobs
The founders of the USA knew this meaning that we have lost and why the 10 COMMANDMENTS WERE POSTED ON PLACES OF GOVT.. so that none who entered forgot to be fair and just when being the govt. and those who had dealings with the govt be treated fairly and justly and with mercy and if not, the people had the right to remove a govt that abuses its authority ...and some found this out yesterday by a majority of voters who fired them showing disapproval of their actions while in office....
Thanks to our founders who gave us peaceful means of removal of those from office who did not act with the fairness and justice and mercy our Divine Love that rules all of creation and gave us free will to follow.. and if not.. we find ourselves in terrible situations. Of our own making as we do not heed some basic rules based on stopping this in our fallen human state of being tempted to choose wrong ways at times.
When times change and some products are not needed anymore.. then we have to help as a society those who have skills which can be used for something else we now wish or need to have...which much of the chapter 31 discusses the new things to be made , as no longer would golden calves be worshipped and made along with the utensils of the old... ways of the fertility goddess religion of the evil one.. where no free will exists...
Now new things would be made to honor and use for worship of the one of love, mercy honor and good and offer of eternal life... and freedom to choose the good or suffer the loss of ones eternal soul and relationship to Divine love itself .. always freely offered..
Amen!
