If you out of jealousy and envy Judge it is right to rebel against your father and cast your brother into a pit of slavery you also will go into a pit of bondage.
This why we are not to covet anything that is thy neighbors'. Covetousness is idolatry.[1]
It will make you merchandise and curse children if you. This is why Jesus says you are not to be like the government of the gentiles that offer dainties of rulers but exercise authority.[2]

V1 This is a record of the generations. It has more to do with the actions and deeds of the sons of Jacob that is found in their hearts than their blood line. What they doeth is evidence that they are not Israel yet.
This has nothing to do with being saved by works but what you do is the evidence of the spirit that dwells with in your heart and mind.
Today, people sit in darkness again[3] saying they follow Abraham and Jacob as Israel but do they even know them?

The many Pharisees and Sadducees claimed they knew Moses but denied Christ.[4]
Modern Christians say they know Jesus but do they heed His warnings? [5]
Do they obey his instructions?
Do they follow what He commanded[6] according to the way of liberty?[7]

V2 What was the evil report about in context?
The deeds of Esau, who was Edom, God hated but the deeds of Jacob, who was Israel, he loved. Were the deeds of Jacob's sons straying from the way of Israel?
V2... Were they just feeding sheep?
Many souls had followed Abraham from Haran. Many people were with Esau who was Edom and many were with Jacob who was Israel.
Was the coat of many colors (ketonet passim[8]) about his position of authority within the family and the people who followed Jacob, who was Israel?
The Ana Ittishu were legal phrases[9] and extracts that were a part of an ancient examination of natural rights reaching back to the third millennium.[10]
5V "Joseph dreamed a dream" V9 "he dreamed yet another dream"
How many colors?
There may be an "Avaris Joseph Statue" of a man, found at Tell el-Dabʿa (ancient Avaris) with a multi-colored attire, a "stick" as an insignia of his office.
Pictured at Genesis 43 is a reproduction of a statue found in Avarice thought to be that of Joseph. See Genesis 50.
Was it about sheep or people?

Genesis 33:17 mentioned making booths for his cattle (וּלְמִקְנֵ֙הוּ) which was actually those many people who came with Jacob. They would support him as Israel like those who supported Melchizedek with tithings not taxation which was the means and method of Abimelech and Nimrod.

What was the evil report in Genesis 37?
evil (רָעָ֖ה raah) report (דִּבָּתָ֥ם dibbāṯām)
Some suggest they were mistreating the sons of the maidservants (Bilhah and Zilpah), treating them as slaves.
Or sexual misconduct which supposedly appears 1 Samuel 2:21-23

Others suggest it was "Eating meat from a living animal" or "Eating meat with blood in it".[11]

But all these private interpretation depends on the twisting by the authors of the Talmud who also denied the message of the Messiah who was in agreement with Moses who was in agreement with Abraham because he was in agreement with Melchisedec who was a priest of the way of righteousness.
To expose the real sins and apostasy of those in Error of Edom and Balaam which includes the deeds of the Abimelechs and Nimrods of the systems of the world and the covetous ways of the Canaanites and the cities of blood where the people bite one another untill they are devoured.[12]
Their is an appetite for the decietful meats of their tables of welfare and their corban makes the word of God to none effect.
Joseph as overseer in verse 2
Some scholars read the Hebrew of Genesis 37:2, as literally: "He [Joseph] was shepherding his brothers, along with the flock".[13]
The brothers were acting as a "superintendent or overlooker of the shepherds rather than of the sheep". The question is what means and methods were the brothers using?
Were brothers acting according to Judeo-Christian values by the revelation of Jacob as Israel?
Were they following the pattern of Melchizedek that was the pattern of Christ?[14]
The actual word in the text for flock is baṣṣōn בַּצֹּ֔אן which includes the letter Beit suggesting that it is not sheep but the multitude of souls in "a house or God's house".
And the word for feeding rō‘eh רֹעֶ֤ה ReishAyinHey can mean "to shepherd" or figuratively a "ruler, teacher" even "people as flock". It also can be defined as people "of idolater, Israel as flock".
Reporting the Evil
What was the evil report in Genesis 37?
Was Joseph a tattletale or the overseer of the people who walked in the way of Israel as we saw in verse 2?
A private interpretation may depend on the denial by the Talmud of the real sins and apostasy of the Jews like the pharisees and Herod with their free bread of leaven found in their Corban. The error of Balaam and Edom is included in the deeds of the Abimelechs of the systems of the Canaanites and the cities of blood where the people bite one another through the the civil authority. Where there is leaven in the bread of the priests and rulers there is oppression and their corban will make the word of God to none effect.
To Shepherd by consent
V12 they went to feed (lir‘ō·wṯ לִרְע֛וֹת) the flock by Shechem which means by consent.
V13 But were they Feeding the flock of their father by consent?
The normal word for feed is רָעָה raah But the word in the text is לִרְע֛וֹת lir‘ōwṯ beginning with a Lamed and ending with VavTav. It is often translated "shepherd". We still to this day use the word shepherd to describe a pastor of a flock of people. Was this what they were actually doing. The were tending to the shepherds who were attending to the sheep from their own succoth or tents. They did come to tend to those people out in the field who followed the way of Israel which was the forerunner of the way of Christ.
"Government by the consent of the governed"
This principle was articulated by John Locke and by Thomas Jefferson in the Declaration of Independence, which states that governments derive their "just powers from the consent of the governed". Abraham and Jacob knew this by revelation but there was a need for a social safety net established to create the social bonds of a free society. This is why they built unhewn altars of stone or clay that recieved the freewill offerings of the people from the door of their own succoth/tent.
* Text of verse 14
V14 “And he said (ויאמר) to him (לו) go (לך־) please (נָ֨א ) and see ( ראה) (את־) if it is well with (שלום) – your brothers (אחיך)and (ואת־) well with (שלום) the flocks (הצאן) and bring back to me (והשבני) word (דבר) So he sent him (וישלחהו)out of the Valley (מעמק)of Hebron (חברון) and he went (ויבא) to Shechem (:שכמה)
V14 "sent him out of the vale(mê‘êmeq מֵעֵ֣מֶק) of Hebron(חֶבְר֔וֹן) and he came to Shechem."
Is the vale of Hebron and Sechem places. Moses is telling the story of these men before the bondage of Egypt to give us a glimpse of the kingdom of God and the way of faith, the Malchut.
What is the root word for "out of the vale"
Vale in the text is (mê‘êmeq מֵעֵ֣מֶק) is from עֵמֶק emeq that has different meanings. 06009 is also עֵמֶק amoq AyinMemKuf meaning have, make, seek deeply, depth, be profound. Even though it was used by Moses it is probably Assyrian in origin([emê‡u] implore (earnestly; 'from bottom of one'soul'), emû‡u, might, nîme‡u, wisdom in the sense of unfathomable;). Appears in Hosea 5:2 as the masculine plural הֶעְמִיקוּ meaning deep in "the pit of Shittim" or sin. In Isaiah 31:6 they have made deep (their) apostasy;. A vale is not just a valley.[15]
Hebron is (חֶבְר֔וֹן) from 02267 חֶבֶר meaning spells, charmer, society of associations or Patriarchal Associations. Abraham had built an altar near Hebron. Genesis 13:18 "Then Abram removed his tent, and came and dwelt in the plain of Mamre(מַמְרֵ֖א), which is in Hebron, and built there an altar unto the LORD." and Genesis 12:7 And the LORD appeared unto Abram, and said, Unto thy seed will I give this land: and there builded he an altar unto the LORD, who appeared unto him.
From Abraham to Jacob they knew of the Ana Ittishu but all language is subject to interpretation. Social elements of the Malchut facilitate the search to strengthen our connection with will of God, through revelation, through the [Yod|divine spark]].
18V 22v Slay Joseph but "Reuben said unto them, Shed no blood"
V23... Stripped, cast and sold
Questions
What is the word sheepshearers <01494>gazaz גַּזָז mean? The word is a primitive root akin to (גּוּז - brought) "to bring, cut off".
SO, What was this evil report?

Does it appear 1 Samuel 2:21-23 where sons were "lay with the women that assembled [at] the door of the tabernacle of the congregation." Or was this also about strange fire

Where is your social safety net?
What is your Corban?
Why should we be warry of the Leaven of the Pharisees and Herod?
Is it the Corban of Christ or the Corban of the Beast who has a harlot who rides its back?
Does the strategy of Cloward and Piven, which is the practices of the Democrats, the destroyers of liberty. [16]
Abraham, Jacob, Moses and Jesus were capitalists, not a socialists. What type of social safety net did they create to maintain the liberty of honest capitalism?
What do you fail to see?

Joseph's Dreams

Stranger in Canaan

1 And Jacob dwelt in the land wherein his father was a stranger (מְגוּרֵ֣י megūrê), in the land of Canaan.

Feeding report

2 These are the generations of Jacob. Joseph, being seventeen years old, was feeding the flock with his brethren; and the lad was with the sons of Bilhah, and with the sons of Zilpah, his father's wives: and Joseph brought unto his father their evil (רָעָ֖ה raah) report (דִּבָּתָ֥ם dibbāṯām).

Coat of Colors

3 Now Israel loved Joseph more than all his children, because he was the son of his old age: and he made him a coat of many colours.

Jealousy

4 And when his brethren saw that their father loved him more than all his brethren, they hated him, and could not speak peaceably unto him.

The hated Dream

5 And Joseph dreamed a dream, and he told it his brethren: and they hated him yet the more.

6 And he said unto them, Hear, I pray you, this dream which I have dreamed:

7 For, behold, we were binding sheaves in the field, and, lo, my sheaf arose, and also stood upright; and, behold, your sheaves stood round about, and made obeisance to my sheaf.

8 And his brethren said to him, Shalt thou indeed reign over us? or shalt thou indeed have dominion over us? And they hated him yet the more for his dreams, and for his words.

Another dream

9 And he dreamed yet another dream, and told it his brethren, and said, Behold, I have dreamed a dream more; and, behold, the sun and the moon and the eleven stars made obeisance to me.

10 And he told it to his father, and to his brethren: and his father rebuked (וַיִּגְעַר־ wayyiḡ‘ar) him, and said unto him, What is this dream that thou hast dreamed? Shall I and thy mother and thy brethren indeed come to bow down ourselves to thee to the earth?

11 And his brethren envied him; but his father observed the saying.‭ ‭ 12 And his brethren went to feed their father’s flock in Shechem.‭

‭13 And Israel said unto Joseph, Do not thy brethren feed the flock in Shechem? come, and I will send thee unto them. And he said to him, Here am I.

‭14 And he said to him, Go, I pray thee, see whether it be well with thy brethren, and well with the flocks; and bring me word again. So he sent him out of the vale of Hebron, and he came to Shechem. ‭

A certain man

15 And a certain man found him, and, behold, he was wandering in the field: and the man asked him, saying, What seekest thou?

16 And he said, I seek my brethren: tell me, I pray thee, where they feed their flocks.

17 And the man said, They are departed hence; for I heard them say, Let us go to Dothan(דֹּתָ֑יְנָה dōṯāyənāh). And Joseph went after his brethren, and found them in Dothan (בְּדֹתָֽן׃ bəḏōṯān).

Slay Joseph

18 And when they saw him afar off, even before he came near unto them, they conspired against him to slay him.

19 And they said one to another, Behold, this dreamer cometh.

20 Come now therefore, and let us slay him, and cast him into some pit, and we will say, Some evil beast hath devoured him: and we shall see what will become of his dreams.

Rueben delivers

21 And Reuben heard it, and he delivered him out of their hands; and said, Let us not kill him.

22 And Reuben said unto them, Shed no blood, but cast him into this pit that is in the wilderness, and lay no hand upon him; that he might rid him out of their hands, to deliver him to his father again.

Strip Joseph

23 And it came to pass, when Joseph was come unto his brethren, that they stript Joseph out of his coat, his coat of many colours that was on him;

Cast into a pit and ate

24 And they took him, and cast him into a pit: and the pit was empty, there was no water in it.

Ishmeelites come for profit

25 And they sat down to eat bread: and they lifted up their eyes and looked, and, behold, a company of Ishmeelites came from Gilead with their camels bearing spicery and balm and myrrh, going to carry it down to Egypt.

26 And Judah said unto his brethren, What profit is it if we slay our brother, and conceal his blood?

27 Come, and let us sell him to the Ishmeelites, and let not our hand be upon him; for he is our brother and our flesh. And his brethren were content.

28 Then there passed by Midianites merchantmen; and they drew and lifted up Joseph out of the pit, and sold Joseph to the Ishmeelites for twenty pieces of silver: and they brought Joseph into Egypt.

Rueben returns

29 And Reuben returned unto the pit; and, behold, Joseph was not in the pit; and he rent his clothes.

30 And he returned unto his brethren, and said, The child is not; and I, whither shall I go?

31 And they took Joseph's coat, and killed a kid of the goats, and dipped the coat in the blood;

32 And they sent the coat of many colours, and they brought it to their father; and said, This have we found: know now whether it be thy son's coat or no.

My son devoured by a beast

33 And he knew it, and said, It is my son's coat; an evil beast hath devoured him; Joseph is without doubt rent in pieces.

34 And Jacob rent his clothes, and put sackcloth upon his loins, and mourned for his son many days.

35 And all his sons and all his daughters rose up to comfort him; but he refused to be comforted; and he said, For I will go down into the grave unto my son mourning. Thus his father wept for him.

36 And the Midianites sold him into Egypt unto Potiphar, an officer of Pharaoh's, and captain of the guard.

  1. Covetousness is idolatry
    Colossians 3:5 "Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry: 6 For which things’ sake the wrath of God cometh on the children of disobedience:"
    Ephesians 5:5 "For this ye know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God."
    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."
  2. Not exercise authority
    Matthew 20:25 "But Jesus called them unto him, and said, Ye know that the princes of the Gentiles exercise dominion over them, and they that are great exercise authority upon them. But it shall not be so among you:..."
    Mark 10:42 "But Jesus called them to him, and saith unto them, Ye know that they which are accounted to rule over the Gentiles exercise lordship over them; and their great ones exercise authority upon them. But so shall it not be among you:..."
    Luke 22:25 "And he said unto them, The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them; and they that exercise authority upon them are called benefactors. But ye [shall] not [be] so:..."
  3. Sitting in Darkness
    Psalms 107:10 "Such as sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, [being] bound in affliction and iron;"
    Isaiah 42:7 "To open the blind eyes, to bring out the prisoners from the prison, [and] them that sit in darkness out of the prison house."
    Micah 7:8 "Rejoice not against me, O mine enemy: when I fall, I shall arise; when I sit in darkness, the LORD [shall be] a light unto me."
    Luke 1:79 "To give light to them that sit in darkness and [in] the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the way of peace."
    Isaiah 9:2 "The people that walked in darkness have seen a great light: they that dwell in the land of the shadow of death, upon them hath the light shined.
    Matthew 4:16 "The people which sat in darkness saw great light; and to them which sat in the region and shadow of death light is sprung up."
  4. If thou Knew Moses
    • “‭7 They say unto him, Why did Moses then command to give a writing of divorcement, and to put her away? ‭8 He saith unto them, Moses because of the hardness of your hearts suffered you to put away your wives: but from the beginning it was not so.” Matthew 19:7-8
    • “‭3 ...What did Moses command you? ‭4 And they said, Moses suffered to write a bill of divorcement, and to put her away. ‭5 And Jesus answered and said unto them, For the hardness of your heart he wrote you this precept. ‭6 But from the beginning of the creation God made them male and female. ‭7 For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and cleave to his wife; ‭8 And they twain shall be one flesh: so then they are no more twain, but one flesh. ‭9 What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.” Mark 10:3-9
    • Moses seat “‭2 Saying, The scribes and the Pharisees sit in Moses’ seat: ‭3 All therefore whatsoever they bid you observe, that observe and do; but do not ye after their works: for they say, and do not. ‭4 For they bind heavy burdens and grievous to be borne, and lay them on men’s shoulders; but they themselves will not move them with one of their fingers. ‭5 But all their works they do for to be seen of men: they make broad their phylacteries, and enlarge the borders of their garments,” Matthew 23:2-5
    • “‭10 For Moses said, Honour thy father and thy mother; and, Whoso curseth father or mother, let him die the death: ‭11 But ye say, If a man shall say to his father or mother, It is Corban, that is to say, a gift, by whatsoever thou mightest be profited by me; he shall be free. ‭12 And ye suffer him no more to do ought for his father or his mother; ‭13 Making the word of God of none effect through your tradition, which ye have delivered: and many such like things do ye.” Mark 7:10-13
    “‭19 Master, Moses wrote unto us, If a man’s brother die, and leave his wife behind him, ... In the resurrection therefore, when they shall rise, whose wife shall she be of them? ... Do ye not therefore err, because ye know not the scriptures, neither the power of God? ... but are as the angels which are in heaven. ‭26 And as touching the dead, that they rise: have ye not read in the book of Moses, how in the bush God spake unto him, saying, I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob? ‭27 He is not the God of the dead, but the God of the living: ye therefore do greatly err. ‭...Which is the first commandment of all? ‭29 And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord: ‭30 And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment. ‭31 And the second is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these.” Mark 12:19-31
    • Hear Moses “‭31 And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead.” Luke 16:31
    • Law and grace “‭17 For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ.” John 1:17
    • Moses wrote “‭45 Philip findeth Nathanael, and saith unto him, We have found him, of whom Moses in the law, and the prophets, did write, Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph. ‭46 And Nathanael said unto him, Can there any good thing come out of Nazareth? Philip saith unto him, Come and see.” John 1:45-46
    If believed Moses “‭45 Do not think that I will accuse you to the Father: there is one that accuseth you, even Moses, in whom ye trust. ‭46 For had ye believed Moses, ye would have believed me: for he wrote of me. ‭47 But if ye believe not his writings, how shall ye believe my words?” John 5:45-47
    • Bread of life “‭32 Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Moses gave you not that bread from heaven; but my Father giveth you the true bread from heaven. ‭33 For the bread of God is he which cometh down from heaven, and giveth life unto the world.” John 6:32-33
    • “‭19 Did not Moses give you the law, and yet none of you keepeth the law? Why go ye about to kill me? ‭20 The people answered and said, Thou hast a devil: who goeth about to kill thee? ‭21 Jesus answered and said unto them, I have done one work, and ye all marvel. ‭22 Moses therefore gave unto you circumcision; (not because it is of Moses, but of the fathers;) and ye on the sabbath day circumcise a man. ‭23 If a man on the sabbath day receive circumcision, that the law of Moses should not be broken; are ye angry at me, because I have made a man every whit whole on the sabbath day? ‭24 Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment.” John 7:19-24
    • Without sin “‭5 Now Moses in the law commanded us, that such should be stoned: but what sayest thou? ‭6 This they said, tempting him, that they might have to accuse him. But Jesus stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground, as though he heard them not. ‭7 So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her. ‭8 And again he stooped down, and wrote on the ground. ‭9 And they which heard it, being convicted by their own conscience, went out one by one, beginning at the eldest, even unto the last: and Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst.” John 8:5-9
    • Heareth prayers “‭28 Then they reviled him, and said, Thou art his disciple; but we are Moses’ disciples. ‭29 We know that God spake unto Moses: as for this fellow, we know not from whence he is. ‭30 The man answered and said unto them, Why herein is a marvellous thing, that ye know not from whence he is, and yet he hath opened mine eyes. ‭31 Now we know that God heareth not sinners: but if any man be a worshipper of God, and doeth his will, him he heareth.” John 9:28-31
  5. Bread of oppression
    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."
    Matthew 16:11 "How is it that ye do not understand that I spake [it] not to you concerning bread, that ye should beware of the leaven 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."
    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.
  6. Command to congregate in liberty
  7. Perfect Law of liberty
    • James 1:23 "For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass: 24 For he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was. 25 But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth [therein], he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed. 26 If any man among you seem to be religious, and bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this man's religion [is] vain.
    • James 2:8 If ye fulfil the royal law according to the scripture, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself, ye do well: 9 But if ye have respect to persons, ye commit sin, and are convinced of the law as transgressors. 10 For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one [point], he is guilty of all. 11 For he that said, Do not commit adultery, said also, Do not kill. Now if thou commit no adultery, yet if thou kill, thou art become a transgressor of the law. 12 So speak ye, and so do, as they that shall be judged by the law of liberty. 13 For he shall have judgment without mercy, that hath shewed no mercy; and mercy rejoiceth against judgment. 14 What [doth it] profit, my brethren, though a man say he hath faith, and have not works? can faith save him?
    • Leviticus 19:18 "Thou shalt not avenge, nor bear any grudge against the children of thy people, but thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself: I am the LORD."
    • Matthew 19:19 "Honour thy father and thy mother: and, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself."

  16. Destroyers of liberty
    "That the man who first ruined the Roman people twas he who first gave them treats and gratuities. But this mischief crept secretly and gradually in, and did not openly make it's appearance in Rome for a considerable time." Plutarch's Life of Coriolanus (c. 100 AD.) This would include Julius Caesar and eventually Augustus Caesar which is why Plutarch also reported, “The real destroyers of the liberties of the people is he who spreads among them bounties, donations, and benefits.” This was a major theme of the Bible:
    There were tables of welfare which were both snares and a traps as David and Paul stated and Peter warned would make us merchandise and curse children. Proverbs 23 told us not to not eat the "dainties" offered at those tables of Rulers and Paul says in 1 Corinthians 10 we cannot eat of those tables and the table of the Lord. We are not to consent to their covetous systems of One purse or Corban which makes the word of God to none effect.
    We know when the masses become accustomed to those benefits of legal charity which are the rewards of unrighteousness provided by benefactors who exercise authority and the Fathers of the earth through the covetous practices that makes men merchandise and curse children as a surety for debt.
