I watched a movie, "Fat Chance." One of the questions a character spoke on was the idea of social media and if we posted what we actually thought and felt, I suppose as opposed to the highlights and choice bits. Perhaps it would be TMI, likely so. Perhaps though the idea of exposing who we really are: our inner selves, thoughts, pains, traumas, shortcomings, fears, dreams failed or yet unrealized, and hopes; is terrifying. One day, perhaps after this world of deception, we won't feel the need to wear our many facades.

If you walk in my statutes and observe my commandments and do them, then I will give you your rains in their season, and the land shall yield its increase, and the trees of the field shall yield their fruit.
Leviticus 26:3-4
Malachi 2:9, “So I in turn have made you despised and humiliated before all the people, because you have not kept My ways, but have shown partiality in matters of the law.” This is directed to the priests who had corrupted the sacred word of our Creator but is also a stern warning to the religious leaders of today. Consider the many very popular leaders of many denominations and religions who have been humiliated by their sin.
Another small #chiasm in #exodus 18:11 shows how God is actually above all false gods, while the false gods only hold power over anything by arrogant presumption. Following the Hebrew word order, the chiasm reads like this:
- A - Great is YHWH
--- B - To all gods
--- B - In this thing
- A - They were proud above them
There is also a pun connecting gods (elohim) to "above them" (alihim), reinforcing my belief that the arrogant ones in this verse are the false gods of Egypt, not the Egyptians themselves. Those gods thought they had pulled one over on YHWH by enslaving his chosen people, but he was only using them for his purposes all along.
Everyone thought Egypt's gods were the greatest in the world, but YHVH dealt with them in the very seat of their power. How do you suppose your idols measure up?
