Thought for today: Wednesday October 27:

Refresh yourself in the Peace of Yeshua Moshiach’s Presence. This Peace can be your portion at all times and in all circumstances. Learn to hide in the secret of Ruach Kodesh’s Presence even as you carry out your duties and daily tasks. He is both, with you and within you. He goes before you to open up the way and He also walk alongside you. There will and could never be another companion as devoted as He is. Because Yeshua is your constant Companion, there should be a lightness to your step that is observable to others. Do not be weighed down with problems and unresolved issues, for He is your Burden-Bearer. In the world you have trials and distress, but don’t let them get you down. Yeshua has conquered the world and deprived it of power to harm you. In Yahuah you may have confident Peace.

Here's a summary breakdown of the sequence of resurrections and judgments in the Bible, beginning with the Crucifixion of Yeshua (aka Jesus), to help keep things in perspective as I move forward with a series of articles on the afterlife: http://www.americantorah.com/2....021/10/25/a-timeline

And he made the camels kneel down outside the city by the well of water at the time of evening, the time when women go out to draw water.
#genesis 24:11

Wells appear to have been a common courtship venue in Scripture, Ye Olde Watering Hole. Like the city gates, they were probably natural gathering places and the organic seeds of local markets. If you wanted to find information about a local resident or amenities, you would go to the city gates or the town well.

One Hebrew word for well is 'ayin', which also means 'eye'. In the story of Rebekah's betrothal in Genesis 24 there are two wells. Eliezer finds Rebekah at the "well/eye of water" and then brings her to Isaac at the "well of the One who sees".

GENESIS AND MODERN EDUCATION

https://www.alittleperspective.....com/genesis-and-mod

The Authenticity of the Book of Genesis by Bill Cooper is fast becoming one of the treasures of my library. The evidence discussed for the great antiquity of the Book of Genesis, so far, has been numerous and varied. It has been linguistic, archaeological, historic, cultural, and philological. It has included (but not been limited to):

The overwhelming number of toledoth in Genesis, indicating connections between ancient clay tablets from the first ages …
Comparison of Babylonian and Genesis creation epics …
Pre-Flood geography and the grammatical/ historical construct of its description …
The temptation and fall of man present in various literatures and mythologies …
The Genesis genealogies and the Sumerian king list …
The antiquity of the Genesis calendar …
The historic and archaeological evidence for the Tower of Babel, the Table of Nations, Abraham, the Mesopotamian kings of Gen 14, Melchizedek, pre-Mosaic laws and customs, and Joseph in Egypt.

And that is just in the first part of the book! I have Flood traditions from around the world, and The Genesis Flood Tablet, still to go!

But what profound commentary on our modern educational system:

“What then, shall we say to these things? One piece of evidence for the antiquity of the Book of Genesis would be intriguing. Two would begin to be persuasive. But the body of evidences that we have considered here (and we have not exhausted the subject by any means) is surely compelling to the highest degree. If the Book of Genesis were indeed as young as its critics have claimed, and if it really had been copied and edited from older sources, then there would be many items of hard archaeological evidence to that effect. Certainly, not one of the evidences that we have been considering would even exist. Yet when we look to the modernist school for just one item of hard evidence for their claims, we are met with silence — or merely the time-honored mantra of doubt and confusion.

“Now it is no light thing to withhold evidence of any description, let alone when that evidence has to do with the Word of God. When we read the modernist claim that the kings of Genesis 14 are unknown to us from the historical record, and then see (as in Appendix Two of this book) that all four names of the Mesopotamian kings mentioned in that chapter are contained on a single clay tablet, and that they are also contained severally on other tablets of the time, then we have to ask what is really going on here. These tablets, though kept from the public eye, have been catalogued and translated, and have been lodged in the British Museum since the late 19th century. Their existence is well known to any enquiring scholar who cares to look into the subject. Yet the clear testimony that they bear to the truth of the Genesis 14 record is hidden away. But not only that. Their very existence goes unmentioned, and a deliberate and calculated lie is inserted in their place, the lie that the names of these kings are unknown to us from the historical record, and that the writer of the Book of Genesis either errs in his ignorance, or blatantly deceives those who read him.

“The information we that we have been considering is not just withheld from the public, of course. It is also withheld from all those students who are busy pursuing their degrees in modernist colleges and universities. Entirely unaware of the fact that they are learning and then propagating a lie, they go on to teach their own students and to write in their own publications the lie that they in turn have been taught. The education systems of the western world are geared to suppress independent thought, and open enquiry is discouraged at all levels. Let a student’s dissertation once range beyond the lecture notes that he has been fed, and let his conclusions raise but the smallest question mark over what he has been taught, and he will be severely marked down for it — even failed altogether if the question mark is big enough to embarrass his tutors. The much- vaunted ‘scientific method’ in all this, is a sham.

“This has always been the way of things, just as it always will be the way of things. No amount of evidence or persuasive argument will ever change that. The system is too big, too powerful, and is too firmly entrenched to offer the hope of ever being changed. Moreover, because the world itself rejects the Word of God out of hand, it welcomes a system which tells it how false that Word is, and will protect and nourish that system to the defiance of all logic and common sense.”

Blessed are You Adonai Eloheinu, for in Your Son You have come among us and shared in our humanity, that we may come to You and share in Your divinity. You have given us a wonderful Saviour and revealed the depth of Your love. Blessed are You our Holy King. Adonai, we seek to do Your will, that Your Church may be the instrument of Your peace and salvation. We ask Your blessing upon all who go out in mission and all who proclaim the Good News. We pray for all who risk their lives or well-being for the sake of doing Your will. We pray for all who seek to dedicate their lives to You and Your glory. Adonai Elohim, may Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven. We ask Your blessing upon all who strive to bring healing and wholeness to peoples and nations. We pray for peacekeeping forces and all who endeavour to maintain law and order. We pray for the United Nations and for our governments. Adonai, may we reveal Your will in our homes by living together in love and peace. We ask Your blessing upon all our loved ones, friends and family. May we all encourage each other to do Your will. We pray for all who suffer from bad housing or live in areas of deprivation. We ask Your blessing upon all who seek to relieve the needs of the poor. Father, we pray tonight for all who are suffering from strained or broken relationships. We pray for all who are a bad influence and lead others astray. We pray for all caught up in drugs or vice. May they be given the chance of new directions. We pray for all who are ill, old people in homes, children in orphanages, those with disability and the loved ones of those who passed away. We pray for those living in high crime areas and ask Your protection over those called by Your Name. We give thanks for the salvation You provided for us through our Saviour Yeshua Moshiach and we pray this prayer through the Blood He bled for us, amein.
