Episode 13
"The potential negative impacts of idolatry in modern society are explored in Exodus 29, verses 43-46. The perils of choosing idolatry over the divine are discussed, as well as Moses’ role as intermediary between God and the Israelites in both Biblical and contemporary times." Daily Wire
Office of Priest
44 And I will sanctify the tabernacle of the congregation, and the altar: I will sanctify also both Aaron and his sons, to minister to me in the priest's office.
45 And I will dwell among the children of Israel, and will be their God.
46 And they shall know that I am the LORD their God, that brought them forth out of the land of Egypt, that I may dwell among them: I am the LORD their God.
There is a great deal of talk about garments and breeches but no one asks nor answers the question :
Why is the Hebrew word for garment[1] also the word for treachery?[2]
49:
Practical exodus
Exodus 32 needs to be understood in the practical nature of men facing the difficulties of a hostile world.
Why were there so many golden calves or other golden statues?
Was it a reserve fund, was it a one purse system designed to bind the people?
What was the function of the Temples in Rome and in Egypt?
With only one tabernacle serving people all over Israel where the people seldom saw it through their day to day life and how were they sacrificing on a weekly bases and why?
Were the people superstitious?
Were the altars just a blood letting and burning flesh on a daily bases?
Why did the Essenes think the Pharisees interpretation of the Torah was a fiction and a fraud?
Why did they generally not participate in the system of Corban set up by Herod and the Pharisees?
Were the altars a system of charity funded by freewill offerings regularly sacrificed as if burnt up to the giver to care for the needy in a daily ministration of a social safety net that created the social bonds of a free and moral society with the ethics of God?
Was the corban of the Pharisees the covetous practices because once you forced the offerings of the people, degenerated them, made them merchandise.
Why did John the Baptist say to take care of the needy through freewill offerings?
golden calf
50:
Exodus 32 and the Golden calf which are built with the arts of the temples in Egypt and many of the city-states by Aaron who knew those arts which included grain.
58:50:
Why a golden calf? JP asks but interrupted by question about the earthly thing put in the golden statutes but missed why there was the pooling of wealth and what it means to the minds of the people. Why is it said that they are worshipping it which is because their action are now controlled by the calf which is meant to solidified their loyalty to the body because they now have one purse of Gold.
Rameses: I don't have to remind you, Moses—the temple grain is for the gods.
Moses: What the gods can digest will not sour in the belly of a slave.
Red Heifer
102:
Idolatry and what it is.
They are "worshipping what they should be sacrificing."
103:
The sacrifice of the Red heifer is missed by Ben Shapiro.
107:
Again Idolatry[3] is not the image but does the image have power to rule over you because your choices are overcome by the presence of the object of worship as a ruling judge of our conscience.
The people serve the calf rather than serving God by caring for one another.
The group sees the dancing as an orgy not understanding the nakedness.
Did the people really understand what they did?
Did they really understand when they said they consented?
Dose the group understand the orgy before them and why the world is need of repentance.
lowering the bar
1:15: Jordan Peterson talks about lowering the bar to get you started. The longest journey begins with the first step.
The shallow interpretation is a start but the deeper and deeper and deeper meaning is each a challenge in itself.
1:20
Aaron to Blame
Aaron blames the people and Moses. correlating the story with Adam
"And the calf just came out"
Again Aaron made the people Naked
1:22:
Moses pleads for the people even to the point of sacrificing himself.
John 15:12 "This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you. 13 Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends."
John 10:11 I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep.
They had no more an orgiastic party than everyday in the feasts of legal charity offered at the tables of benefactors who exercise authority.
Naked before thy enemy
1:28
Again Shapiro admits the Hebrew they are not actually naked.
1:30
Jordan Peterson asks why is this that "Aaron has made them naked to the shame among their enemies."
What did Aaron made them take off or strip away?
They stripped off their authority over their wealth and put that choice in the Golden calf. What made them great was their commitment to the way of God which included the weightier matters which requires choice and the love of neighbor and not coveting their right to choose.
1:32
The massacre in the camp where we are lead to believe that the Levites smite and kill 3000 vs 600000.
Were they put to death are barred from the camp even if they might die if they will not consecrate themselves to the way of God.
Shapiro mentions the death penalty was almost never performed. See put to death.
populous compassion
1:36
Aaron who was he.
Was he a populous?
What does the priest do?
How does the wave offering work?
139
Jordan Peterson talks about the danger and damage of Excessive compassion which is the subject of Milk and meat
Excess compassion can create Hyper-empathy syndrome.[4]
Stripped their ornaments was an act of humility.
But like leaven is not which is not about yeast but cruelty so ornaments are not about jewelry.
1:43 The camp is outside the camp and they worship from their door of their own tent.
Real worship is bowing to the will or directive of your God.
Ultimately Israel is a voluntary kingdom bound by the virtue and righteousness of God.
1:50
Moses seeks justice. Takes the burden. Serves and ends with Deuteronomy.
1:55

- ↑ 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."
- For it is written that the tables of dainties provided by rulers of the world are a snare because they cause the masses to bite one another through government systems of legal charity which are covetous practices which are a form of fornication or adultery where the people are devoured as merchandise, curse children and are "entangled again in the yoke of bondage" with the aid of the false religion of the whore who rides the beast.
- ↑ Hyper-empathy syndrome occurs when you are too in tune with other people's emotions and mirror them to the same intensity. In other words, you care too much. People with hyper-empathy may find it hard to regulate their emotions and may have a tendency to pick up on negative feelings.
