Ezekiel 42 KJV - Then he brought me forth into the utter - Bible Gateway For years, I have opened a Biblical chapter at random to read and throughout the day, some part seems to speak to my personal life in some way, and/or the times we live in.. Translations used vary over time. Currently, am using the King James for the first time in many years, and find some insights and understandings that seem to have been lost in more modern translations, trying to put things in current English of the times.
Today, in Ezekiel 42 are the dimensions of how the HOUSE OF GOD ON HIS MOUNT IN THE CITY OF JERUSALEM is to be built.. and it has walls , and 'house rules' that are to be followed when one is invited in to respect and worship the ways of a faith.. and to trespass against these , is an abomination to the one who comes in with HIS great light through the Eastern Gate.. at times of HIS choosing......HIS CHOSEN DOORWAY ..and many wait for that glorious time ...... HIS HOUSE RULES and HE GAVE UNDERSTANDING TO KING DAVID TO GET A SEPARATE DEED FOR THE PLACE 3000 YEARS AGO AND PAY FAIR MARKET VALUE FOR IT for HIM.. and King David then did the same for his own LAND FOR HIS OWN HOUSE.. on a separate deed.. and paid fair market value for it.. so that all would know who is the owner of ones own personal place and Home and could set the HOUSE RULES of ones own home..
This is a real place, and some say that the structure on the mount now, of another faith is not in the place where the temple is to be built and at one time was built until the ultimate TRESPASS OCCURRED IN 70 AD AND ROME TORE DOWN THE TEMPLE AND EVERY STONE DISMANTLED.. BUT FOR ONE WALL that may or may not even be one of the original place.. but was part of the whole.. back 2000 years ago..
Scripture and other historical writings suggest that King Herod, who was not of the Davidic line. as historians and Bible indicate was a puppet appointment of Rome added fill dirt to the mount and put a Roman garrison as the highest structure to overlook the city... I do not know of this as eye witness as was not there but and only as references I have read. And by many who do seem to know a lot more of the area and archeology in current times.. Boundaries in disrepair and over time confusion and armed conflict occurs. over where they even are and we struggle to live with the chaos.
This , in no way demeans that the "WAILING WALL" as its now known and where many come to pray is not a real part of the area. and sincere prayers are not being heard by the Divine.
And. the Bible , of my faith indicates; that all who wish to respect the rules of the House and area, are welcome to come and be part of activities that happen in that special place... YET we have a current issue of the exact spot and whether another structure has been on it for centuries. now.. BUT IF THE REAL SITE is just below it. and the current structure in on fill dirt, then that may fulfill more scripture of future occurrences that may eventually occur on the site.. when the One many are expecting to come some day, and for Christians, to return one day... will get the confusion , set right and the RULES AND BOUNDARIES OF HIS HOME BE MADE KNOWN TO ALL OF US FOR ETERNITY.
Even the Divine. has Boundaries and House rules and each one of us has our place to be on that place.. and respect that its HIS HOUSE. and HE GETS TO MAKE THE RULES OR CHANGE THEM AND ALLOW WHOM HE INVITES IN OR NOT TO ENTER
Humanity is still learning the RULE OF THE HOUSE AND TO RESPECT THEM.. AND IN OUR OWN LIVES AND NATIONS.. THE SAME INNATE DESIRE IS TO HAVE BOUNDARIES. FOR OUR OWN RIGHTS AND PRIVACY OF PROPERTY OF OWNERSHIP OF STRUCTURES, PLACES AND INDIVIDUAL THOUGHTS AND RULES FOR OUR OWN LIVES AND THOSE WE AGREE TO FOLLOW AS A SOCIETY IN OUR GOVERNMENTS WE DECIDE TO CREATE for RULES OF A NATION AND BOUNDARIES OF SUCH.
Where , 'we the people' decide who is welcome to enter and who is not.. as we respect all peoples to have the same rights of what is their personal rights. and boundaries.. and most private of thinking.. with mutual respect foe each other ...And if we decides to have no visitors, we can do that. but not lose our humanity of caring for each other either...
Having Boundaries does not mean we have to stop caring or helping others help themselves.. along the way of life's journey... But in their own home and homeland.. or close by for when they are able to return home in times of natural disasters and human made ones never should be allowed to happen .. and each one and nation.. needs to make sure they are not aiding in causing the ones of war and chaos of collapse of society within their own boundaries...
The first place to look, is in the mirror to make sure that what each one of us is doing is being part of the solution, and not aiding and abetting the overall harms to any among humanity.. When our own home and nation are in disarray we become vulnerable to the disrespect of others who then breach our boundaries and DISRESPECT THE RULE OF OUR HOMES, and NATION..
BASIC AND INNATE IN OUR BEING IS THAT RIGHT OF PRIVACY OF HAVING SOMETHING THAT IS OURS AND PERSONAL and others need to respect that as we respect others to have those rights also... Caring for each other. means we respect each other.. And our help to others, does not mean we give that up, for then we become enslavers who soon find ourselves enslaved into the chaos of a few of evil intent and not motivated by love and caring for others...
BOUNDARIES OF SOUL, AS WELL AS PHYSICAL WALLS OF A PLACE, IS A MUTUAL RESPECT. and with them we are stronger and able to help more from our strength and not be enslaved to be overrun by some whose disrespect is not good intent to help ..and all sides caught in a terrible enslavement of all of out rights of even our personal beliefs and eternal future..
In the name of Yahusha, whom we Christians call Christ Jesus, may we not forget that even HE HAS DECLARED BOUNDARIES ARE TO EXIST AND RULES OF HIS HOUSE TO FOLLOW AND MAY THAT BE A GOOD EXAMPLE FOR ALL OF US, OF WHATEVER FAITH OR NONE TO FOLLOW..
May this be a guide to all as one of COMMON SENSE AND GENERAL WISDOM as our leaders face an ongoing impasse that has gone on for decades now and ignored the crisis that grows and grew over the years as NONE WISHED TO LOOK IN THE MIRROR and face the fist problem.. What is the motivation of the one looking back at each one of us..
Heaven help me, and us
Forgive me of my own sins, and those of all of us who broke the rules of humanity we ignored that are those of our faith . as well as those society says we need to follow or make those that serve us better.. when we are the government and its up to us what our boundaries are to be and what the HOUSE RULES ARE TO BE
The DIVINE. has given us a long history of what works and what causes harms and our own faith book that teaches us why and what the DIVINE SAYS IS BETTER FOR THE SALVATION OF OUR ETERNAL SOULS.. BE AN OVERCOME , NOT A COVER UPPER WHERE THE WALLS OF PROTECTION FROM HARM BECOME ROTTED WITH IGNORING THE WARNINGS to deal with issues as all that is kept hidden will eventually erupt into worse issues when good things could have been done early on and now we CANNOT HIDE FROM what we did or did not do anymore .Amen!
P>S The US Constitution says we are to have a census for what reason? FIRST TO DECIDE HOW MANY WE ELECT6 TO THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES and that means counting the number of citizens among us, separate from everyone here.. Sanctuary cities and states ,are getting more representation in congress DISRESPECT OF OUR OWN HOUSE RULES. and each other in our own nation.. maybe the 2020 US CENSUS should ask numbers of citizen. and then list OTHERS.. so that those of us who follow the HOUSE RULES. are not unfairly losing our fair representation in our main place of government , The US House where how our public money is spent is decided first... A SHIFT OF POWER has occurred over the last couple done that has stripped some of us from fairness and given others UNFAIR ADVANTAGE when all of us are to be treated FAIRLY and have not been when many get counted of who is to be represented that our US CONSTITUTION OR HOUSE RULES SAYS ARE NOT TO BE CONSIDERED FOR PURPOSES OF HOW MANY WE GET TO ELECT..
Would the current SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE LOSE HER SEAT? if the truth of how many citizens reside in her district was known. or the same issues around a nation of NO BOUNDARIES. AND MUTUAL RESPECT.. LESSENED OVER THE YEARS AS WE DISRESPECTED THE RIGHTS OF THE ONE WE SEE IN OUR MIRRORS.. FIRST ...
Then so those things to help others that show our caring as a human, but in ways that does not lose our SELF RESPECT.. and that seems to be common wisdom, no matter what ones faith book says..
Faith, the most personal of privacy rights of FREEDOM OF THOUGHT.
