Created OOMs 👉
Near the border was an isolated stairwell going up, wrapped in metal, and smelling of meat.
On the hill that could just be seen, a light winked, and was never more seen.
In the crook of the bend of the sky sat an inverted twilight man; when he waved his hand down, we all said goodbye.

My wife and I are hosting Passover in our home this year. The seats are all filled and God is being good to us.
The upper-classist dislikes things that are strange or grim: it isn't "proper" or "elegant". Because they believe "Christianity = upper-classism", therefore they conclude whatever upper-classism dislikes must be intrinsically unchristian and wrong. To this the lower-classists agree, exulting in everything that upper-classists dislike, thinking that by doing so they are attacking Christianity - because, again, they make the same error as upper-classists, the idea that "Christianity = upper-classism". So the upper-classist forever condemns, and even falls into superstitious fear of what is not to their upper-classist taste; the lower-classist mocks and revels, and Satan laughs at the rat-race he has crafted.
The truth is that this whole strife is man-made and Satanically inspired. The answer is to step out of it, leave the lie which both sides hold, and to open one's eyes to the truth: the faith of Abraham has nothing to do with upper-classism, which is not of heaven but of men.
As the blossom need not declare "I am of Yahweh" to glorify him, neither does the thorn. As the blossom glorifies Yahweh by being a blossom, the thorn glorifies Yahweh by being a thorn.
The specific passion and purpose of my life is the application of this in the arts, specifically in the Strange: the grim, the surreal, the gritty. Every night your mind creates the Strange and the surreal in dreams: I believe it is essential to the human spirit, in the image of Yahweh. Forever let the Strange live to the glory of Yahweh, its Maker.
TL;DR: some hate spiders, God likes them, I agree with God.

The inaugural grain offering was to be deep fried according to Leviticus 6:21. Tradition says boiled, baked, and then fried. I can't decide if that's interesting or just...weird.
This is interesting, though: the grain offering makes anyone who touches it holy, and it is restricted to holy people by statute and nature. It may only be eaten by a priest, unless the one bringing the offering is, himself, a priest, in which case the whole thing must be burned, as if a grain offering can only be consumed by someone holier than the one who brings it. (Leviticus 6:23)
This week's Torah reading is Tzav ("Command", #leviticus 6:8-8:36). Here are some related New Testament passages, articles, and videos.
