'''Peterson's Exodus Episode 8'''<Br>

[[Reading Exodus 18]]

You need to have mercy to have justice and justice to have mercy.

But Dennis Prager says "Justice in the macro and mercy in the micro"(36:) This is not correct according to Moses and Jesus who said differently concerning the [[weightier matters]] of the ''law which includes [[judgment]] and [[mercy]] ,and [[faith]]''<Ref>[[Matthew 23]]:23  Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have omitted the weightier [matters] of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone.</Ref> which takes us back to [[cities of refuge]], the [[Jury]], and their power of [[Nullification]].

When a child is in the milk it is receiving compassion but as it grows you need to become more just who you may [[Meat and milk|boil a kid in its milk]].

[[Ethos]], [[logos]], [[Pathos]], conscientious, compassionate, agreeable (balance?). At 49 min. thinking Parliament prevents chaos provides "cohesion" and "order", is there a better way than [[Democracy]] and [[Republic]].  Moses will set up ''a government of the people, for the people and by the people''. Which is why V19 says " Be thou for the people to God<Ref name="God">{{0430}}</Ref>-ward<Ref name="ward">{{04136}}</Ref>, that thou mayest bring the causes unto God:"
|-
| 55 minutes. [[Tens]] and ''rulers''<Ref name="rulers">{{08269}}</Ref> like the [[Common Law]] but they think the highest judge is the Queen. (58m) People have been crippled by the [[bondage of Egypt]] but the bondage was brought on by [[covetous practices]] because as you judge so shall you be judged. Two things are required for a free society: the [[Power of choice]] and [[sacrifice]] of self. (103m)  ''hating [[covet]]ousness<Ref name="betsa">{{01215}}</Ref>'' and the people will judge with more power than the king... [[William Penn]]. 

56 minutes they talk about these leaders being being a [[hierarchy]]. What they do not seem to understand that it is a [[hierarchy]] of service not one of power and men exercising authority.

59 minutes Larry speaks about having to learn to govern themselves and what the pharaoh took away their right to choose. Part of that was their system of a [[social safety net]] through the compelled offering and [[free bread]] in a [[covetous practices]] of [[legal charity]].

103 minutes Blackwood mentions "hating covetousness" as an attribute of these leaders (ShinReish[[Yod]])<Ref name="ruler">{{08269}}</Ref> were not rulers over the people but were people given a responsibility to serve. [[Covet]]ing was at the root of why the Israelites went into [[bondage]] because they would not hear the anguish of his brothers.<Ref>Genesis 42:21  And they said one to another, We [are] verily guilty concerning our brother, in that we saw the anguish of his soul, when he besought us, and we would not hear; therefore is this distress come upon us.
:Exodus 6:9  And Moses spake so unto the children of Israel: but they hearkened not unto Moses for anguish of spirit, and for cruel bondage.</Ref>

112 minutes they discuss reason and [[Logos]] Father is not beyond [[Right Reason]], but it is the [[Divine Will]]. Can we get to [[Right Reason]] by eating of our own [[tree of knowledge]] but only by eating of the [[tree of life]] through revelation. It was to that [[Spiritual]] tree that [[Moses]] kept returning to and now the people need to learn that too.

=== unedited Notes ===


We listened to this series and are sharing some important things missed by those who read through the Book of Exodus with Jordan.

[[Exodus 20]]

133 

"struggle with the state" when you decimate the higher principle the state becomes the substitute for God."

"The secularist doesn!t think you need  God... Oh yes you do!"

You have to have faith in something to organize yourself

148 

the proper place of those who struggle with God and are favored by God is not under the dominion of a secular authority...

The spirit  of God itself opposed the dominion of the ultimate secular authority properly.

We should be willing to move out of the tyranny into the wilderness of God (the unknown land) even if it is a desert and it means great privation to do so.

No excuse not to do it.



man to dwell under

150. JP "Israelites Began to assemble and organize  themselves dangerously under the sole dominion of Moses. Then organize themselves under a hierarchial state. And then prepare themselves for the revelation of the law."

They go on to discuss "like a bride" and a voluntary movement out of tyrant.

Jordan Peterson ? 

What is the bride? Where is the tyrant and where is the volunteerism?

Torah means instructions, not law as we often think of with legal and penalties.

Dennis. ??613 laws ??

Law of nature is the fabric of creation and the spirit is the creator seen in the patterns produced in the warp and weft of the fabric of society.


Dennis, not just liberation but but free to serve God.

How do we serve God?
