Zigzagging ant-laid mazes tiled the slanting wall, up to the jagged crest, as of a wooden crisscrossing wave. The knife edges hanging down laterally under the palate of the serrated crest form sand dollar clustering patterns, and fend off shrugging approaches of the floor.
Thin grass, leaving bare the muck and grit, last hairs of a balding head. There was a whistle in the air across the top edges of narrow walls and gravel.
The ants pried up the grungy grass and the silt: in the damp gash were uncovered the packed bones, hidden for the times that dice would wander the zigzagging walls.

Here are some Apostolic passages to study alongside Parsha #miketz ("At the end", #genesis 41:1-44:17), plus links to related commentary and videos: https://www.americantorah.com/....2021/04/27/parsha-mi
This is an in-depth study on the rise and fall of civilizations from a biblical perspective. Key points:
• The time it takes for societies to fall is a lot longer than we think.
• The timeline between Adam and the flood is about 1600 years.
• The United States is a metaphor for Israel and a wicked nation simultaneously.
• Specifically, how the New Testament shifted the focus from a singular nation back to a global effort of salvation similar to the pre-flood era.
• Very specific instances of falling away in the present day and why it is so difficult to get people to repent today.
