Name and meaning
Name and meaning Urim (אוּרִים‎) traditionally has been taken to derive from a root meaning ''lights''. The [[Urim and Thummim]] has traditionally been translated as "lights and perfections".  If we take the phrase [[allegory|allegorically]], as meaning "revelation and truth", or "doctrine and truth".
Urim (אוּרִים‎) traditionally has been taken to derive from a root meaning lights; these derivations are reflected in the Neqqudot of the Masoretic Text.[3] In consequence, Urim and Thummim has traditionally been translated as "lights and perfections" (by Theodotion, for example), or, by taking the phrase allegorically, as meaning "revelation and truth", or "doctrine and truth" (it appears in this form in the Vulgate, in the writing of St. Jerome, and in the Hexapla).[4] The latter use was defended in modern Catholic interpretations by connecting Urim and Thummim from the roots ירה (to teach) and אׇמַן (be true).[2]


Thummim (תוּמִים‎) is widely considered to be derived from the consonantal root ת.מ.ם‎ (t-m-m), meaning innocent,[1][4][3] Many scholars now believe that Urim (אוּרִים‎) simply derives from the Hebrew term אּרּרִים‎ (Arrim), meaning "curses", and thus that Urim and Thummim essentially means "cursed or faultless", in reference to the deity's judgment of an accused person; in other words, Urim and Thummim were used to answer the question "innocent or guilty".[1][3]
William Muss-Arnolt, an Assyriologist, who taught at the University of Michigan and the University of Chicago, wrote his Concise Dictionary of the Assyrian Language.  He connected the singular forms of ''ur'' and ''tumm'' with the Babylonian terms ''ūrtu'' and ''tamītu'', meaning "oracle" and "command". According to his theory the Hebrew words use a pluralis intensivus to enhance their apparent majesty, not to indicate the presence of more than one.


Assyriologist William Muss-Arnolt connected the singular forms—ur and tumm—with the Babylonian terms ūrtu and tamītu, meaning "oracle" and "command", respectively. According to his theory the Hebrew words use a pluralis intensivus to enhance their apparent majesty, not to indicate the presence of more than one.[4] Along these lines the urim and thummim are hypothesized to derive from the Tablets of Destiny (worn by Marduk on his breast according to Babylonian religion).[2][a]
Marduk is [[Sumer]]ian for "solar calf" and was the Chief God of Babylon. His temple was a ziggurat described by Herodotus, and has been considered the model for the biblical Tower of Babel. Marduk has been pictured wearing a similar vest on his breast according to Babylonian religion. Yahweh is the only and supreme god of Israelites, and Marduk was the GOD of GODs of Babylon. While the practice of rituals and ceremonies may over lap the means and manner of their governments were different.

Urim and Thummim

Unmooring the altars, priests and the Levites from their purpose and function in a free society is first the product of vanity and coupled with the institution of legal charity will lead the masses to idolatry[1] and a departure from the social virtues which create the social bonds required for liberty under God. A nation of priests and kings is where the people are not slothful in their responsibility to give and forgive in the care of their neighbor through a social safety net of charity and the attention to the weightier matters.
 : As ministers of a nation who do not exercise authority one over the other may be considered naked. Therefore they may need the people to sew them "Breeches" and what are the cloths of service described in Exodus 28 and Exodus 29 based on the intent of Moses in the scriptures to set the captive free?

In the Hebrew Bible, the Urim (אוּרִים‎ "lights")[2] and the Thummim (תֻּמִּים‎ "perfections")[3] are said to be a part of the breastplates of the Highpriest and attached to the ephod which was said to be a type of apron worn by the Jewish high priest. They are also supposedly connected with divination by casting lots, yet many scholars suspect that the phrase refers to a set of two objects used by the high priest to answer a question or reveal the will of God. Joseph Smith claimed he translated the Book of Abraham from Egyptian Papyri which supposedly says the prophet Abraham used a Urim and Thummim given to him in the city Ur to receive revelations from God.

There may have been actual objects called the Urim and Thummim but the constant unmooring of meaning and placing that meaning into objects has been evidence of the spirit of idolatry that has been pervasive amongst the covetous who do not desire or are unable to see spiritual things. Without sacrifice which includes charity, forgiveness and humility there will be no light and much darkness of the mind and heart.

The Phylactery or Tefillin that is used still today The so-called phylacteries[4] or Tefillin[5] are seen in the Hebrew[6] and Greek[7] texts. They have become a box placed on the forehead with a leather thong that is wrapped around the arm down to the hand. It often contains a scripture written on something. It has become a part of the rituals and ceremonies that may distract from real meditation and prayer.

This Tefillin was said to be a meditation tool to aid in relationships... according to Rabbi Goldie Milgram.

The pharisees were the ones who "say they are Jews, and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan" and Jesus called them vipers and hypocrites. The Pharisees unmoored the meaning of the metaphors of scripture into madness. Jesus warned us about their leaven.[8] He was very critical of them, their view of religion, their Corban, their covetous practices, their hypocrisy because they praised God with their lips but did not do what He said.
Some say they are Christians today but are they too workers of iniquity?
God hates the deeds of the Nicolaitan which is also the error of Balaam.

The Urim[2] and Thummim may be [3] first appear in Exodus 28:30, where they are named for inclusion on the breastplate to be worn by Aaron in the holy place. Other books, especially 1 Samuel, describe their uses.

Name and meaning Urim (אוּרִים‎) traditionally has been taken to derive from a root meaning lights. The Urim and Thummim has traditionally been translated as "lights and perfections". If we take the phrase allegorically, as meaning "revelation and truth", or "doctrine and truth".

William Muss-Arnolt, an Assyriologist, who taught at the University of Michigan and the University of Chicago, wrote his Concise Dictionary of the Assyrian Language. He connected the singular forms of ur and tumm with the Babylonian terms ūrtu and tamītu, meaning "oracle" and "command". According to his theory the Hebrew words use a pluralis intensivus to enhance their apparent majesty, not to indicate the presence of more than one.

Marduk is Sumerian for "solar calf" and was the Chief God of Babylon. His temple was a ziggurat described by Herodotus, and has been considered the model for the biblical Tower of Babel. Marduk has been pictured wearing a similar vest on his breast according to Babylonian religion. Yahweh is the only and supreme god of Israelites, and Marduk was the GOD of GODs of Babylon. While the practice of rituals and ceremonies may over lap the means and manner of their governments were different.

Deuteronomy 33:8 And of Levi he said, [Let] thy Thummim <08550> and thy Urim <0224> [be] with thy holy one, whom thou didst prove at Massah, [and with] whom thou didst strive at the waters of Meribah;

    1 Corinthians 5:10 "Yet not altogether with the fornicators of this world, or with the covetous, or extortioners, or with idolaters; for then must ye needs go out of the world. 11 But now I have written unto you not to keep company, if any man that is called a brother be a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolater, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner; with such an one no not to eat."

These scrolls were thought to have the power, like amulets, to avert various evils and to drive away demons. The Pharisees were accustomed to widen, make broad, their phylacteries, that they might render them more conspicuous and show themselves to be more eager than the majority to be reminded of the law of God.

  8. ↑ Bread of oppression
    Jesus and John the Baptist opposed the leaven of Herod, the Pharisees and of the Sadducees because they misinterpreted the way of Moses and the LORD. They collected the resources for their tables of welfare, their social safety net of free bread and care for the needy of society through forced offerings. Peter, Paul, David, and the prophets have been warned us that such covetous practices were setting a snare and a trap. Herod and the Pharisees had set up a system of legal charity rather than fervent charity which always makes the word of God to none effect so that Christ would say the kingdom of God shall be taken from them and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits. We should know that their system "degenerates" the "masses" until they become "perfect savages". Legal charity and its benefits and dainties provided through men who exercise authority are the wages of unrighteousness and the covetous practices that makes men merchandise and will curse children.
    Matthew 16:6 "Then Jesus said unto them, Take heed and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees... 11 How is it that ye do not understand that I spake [it] not to you concerning daily bread, that ye should beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees? 12 Then understood they how that he bade [them] not beware of the leaven of bread, but of the doctrine of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees.
    Mark 8:15 "And he charged them, saying, Take heed, beware of the leaven of the Pharisees, and [of] the leaven of Herod."
    Luke 12:1 "In the mean time, when there were gathered together an innumerable multitude of people, insomuch that they trode one upon another, he began to say unto his disciples first of all, Beware ye of the leaven of the Pharisees, which is hypocrisy."
