Their deeds do not permit them to return to their God. For the spirit of whoredom is within them, and they know not YHVH.
#hosea 5:4
Unrepented sin feeds on itself. The longer you let it go, the harder it becomes to fight it.
The Torah Portion reading is now up. Give it a look!
FROM THIS WEEK’S TORAH PORTION – B’HA’ALOTHKA:
And YHWH spoke to Mosheh, saying, “Take the Lewites from among the children of Yisra’el, and you shall cleanse them, and do this to them to cleanse them: Sprinkle water of sin offering on them, and they shall shave all their body, and shall wash their garments, and cleanse themselves, and shall take a young bull with its grain offering of fine flour mixed with oil, while you take another young bull as a sin offering. And you shall bring the Lewites before the Tent of Appointment, and you shall assemble all the congregation of the children of Yisra’el. And you shall bring the Lewites before YHWH, and the children of Yisra’el shall lay their hands on the Lewites, and Aharon shall wave the Lewites before YHWH, a wave offering from the children of Yisra’el – so shall they be for doing the service of YHWH. And the Lewites shall lay their hands on the heads of the young bulls. And one shall be prepared as a sin offering and the other as an ascending offering to YHWH, to make atonement for the Lewites. And you shall have the Lewites stand before Aharon and his sons, and then wave them, a wave offering to YHWH. Thus you shall separate the Lewites from among the children of Yisra’el, and the Lewites shall be Mine. Then after that the Lewites shall go in to do service in the Tent of Appointment, when you have cleansed them and waved them as a wave offering. For they are given ones, given to Me from among the children of Yisra’el. I have taken them for Myself instead of all who open the womb, the first-born of all the children of Yisra’el. For all the first-born among the children of Yisra’el are Mine, both man and beast. On the day that I struck all the first-born in the land of Mitsrayim I set them apart unto Myself. And I have taken the Lewites instead of all the first-born of the children of Yisra’el. And I have given the Lewites as a gift to Aharon and his sons from among the children of Yisra’el, to do the service of the children of Yisra’el in the Tent of Appointment, and to make atonement for the children of Yisra’el, that there be no plague among the children of Yisra’el when the children of Yisra’el come near the set-apart place.”
Thus Mosheh and Aharon and all the congregation of the children of Yisra’el did to the Lewites according to all that YHWH commanded Mosheh concerning the Lewites, so the children of Yisra’el did to them.
FROM THIS WEEK’S TORAH PORTION – B’HA’ALOTHKA:
And on the day that the Dwelling Place was raised up, the cloud covered the Dwelling Place, the Tent of the Witness. From evening until morning it was above the Dwelling Place like the appearance of fire. Thus it was continually: the cloud covered it by day, and the appearance of fire by night. And whenever the cloud was taken up from above the Tent, after that the children of Yisra’el would depart. And in the place where the cloud dwelt, there the children of Yisra’el would camp. At the mouth of YHWH the children of Yisra’el departed, and at the command of YHWH they camped.
They remained camped as long as the cloud dwelt above the Dwelling Place. Even when the cloud lingered many days above the Dwelling Place, the children of Yisra’el guarded the Charge of YHWH, and did not depart. And so it was, when the cloud was above the Dwelling Place a few days: according to the mouth of YHWH they camped, and according to the mouth of YHWH they would depart. And so it was, when the cloud dwelt only from evening until morning: when the cloud was taken up in the morning, then they departed. Whether by day or by night, whenever the cloud was taken up, they departed. Whether two days, or a new moon or a year that the cloud lingered above the Dwelling Place to dwell upon it, the children of Yisra’el camped, and did not depart. But when it was taken up, they departed. At the mouth of YHWH they camped, and at the mouth of YHWH they departed. They guarded the Charge of YHWH, at the mouth of YHWH by the hand of Moshe.
Today is day 44 of 50 days to Shavu'ot!
I will not punish your daughters when they play the whore, nor your brides when they commit adultery; for the men themselves go aside with prostitutes and sacrifice with cult prostitutes, and a people without understanding shall come to ruin.
Hosea 4:14
Two thoughts:
First, God doesn't need to punish you when the consequences of your deeds are more than sufficient.
Second, those in positions of authority will be judged more harshly by God, but their judgment will impact all below them.
