Studying some about tzitzit and the hem of the robe I read somethings about near eastern cultures. What I read said that the hem of a robe was sometimes decorated and that those decorations would be an extension of the individual signifying the person's social status, position, and authority. I found this interesting since the tzitzit were place on the corner of the robe where the hem was.

This made me think of when David cut off the corner of Saul's robe. It makes sense that he cut off the part where the tzitzit would be. With what I just mentioned Saul's robe hem might have been decorated signifying his authority. Since David cut off the corner of the robe, where the tzitzit was, he was symbolically cutting off God's word and Saul's authority as king.

This might explain David's remorse for "attacking" Saul in this matter because it was such a profound action. This would also explain Saul's reasoning for saying later in the chapter that he now knew that David would be king. Let me know what you think or if you have heard this about the hem of the robe in ancient near eastern cultures.

How about this #meme David Martin ? With an Irish twist.

What are the odds a child in the foster system will ever go to college? Susie Boyle gives that and many more answers to questions about the most vulnerable members of our communities, and about how to make a difference for good in their lives. That is what she does as the Director of Outreach and Partnerships for Fostering the Family, a Christian non-profit dedicated to igniting igniting churches and communities to support foster and adoptive families, and as a guardian ad litem for foster children in South Carolina. In this concluding part of our visit with Susie, she talks about ways everyone can get involved and change the trajectory of children who are in danger of perpetuating a cycle of poverty, abuse, and neglect.

Helping foster kids and their families takes much love and sacrifice. That’s biblical, of course, as Barry Phillips and David Jones discuss in their midrash on Romans 12:1-2, and as Melody Joy and Solomon Lopez explain in their music.

On this date in history, 03/21/1788: Federalist No 73 on the support and veto-power of the President is published by the New York Packet. #otd #tdih #federalistpapers https://www.historycarper.com/....1788/03/21/federalis

This is a conversation that has been happening on TikTok, as well as the title of the comic is based on the title of a presentation given by Nehemiah Gordon. When we compare what we have been taught to know and hang onto about Jesus to what the Bible says about him, we can paint two totally different pictures. Sure, there are some commonalities, such as his love for us and encouraging us to love one another. However, almost everything else is different.

The name I only mention because I have seen many, and come across several websites that say "Jesus is the ONLY name". Even to the point of saying how to proper pronounce the Hebrew letters for God's Name is actually "Jesus", too. Both of the views are severely lacking study of the language of the Bible. The verse I provided for the name is Acts 7:45, which is talking of Joshua, son of Nun, yet uses the Greek IOSEUS, and is translated as Jesus in the KJV. I don't care what name you use. I use Jesus a lot, still.

The name isn't the point of this comic though, but the idea of how Jesus approached the Law. The first idea on the Church side is what I grew up with. Most of my comics on this subject have been addressing this view. The other two are fairly new to me. It has only since my walk of doing the Father's commands have I come across people that say these other two. I had never heard of anyone saying Jesus broke the Law. These two points cause several problems. The first is in Deut 13, God tells Israel about false prophets. Those that do miracles and teach against God's commands. The second is the definition of sin is breaking the Law, this makes Jesus a sinner and no longer the perfect sacrifice for our sins. The last I'll cover here is it doesn't line up with Scripture. The things Jesus broke were traditions. Things not found in Scripture. Him healing on the Sabbath, for example, is not something God said not to do on the Sabbath. This was a tradition held by the Jews at the time of what was permissible and not on the Sabbath.

These traditions many in the Church don't know about because we don't study them. Mark 7 gives an example of several before Jesus again, talks out against those traditions. Not knowing these traditions, people then go and read the chapter and make it about what the definition of food is. This is why context is so important. Many of these thoughts on the Church side have been brought about because the context has been left out to come to these conclusions.
