Why did Dowd, after decades of proclaiming Yahowah’s Towrah to Yisra’el, collapse into rebellion and write what Yada calls the worst of the 155 Mizmowr in the Tanakh recorded in Psalm 51? What did he really mean when he admitted he had missed the mark and asked to be cleansed with hyssop instead of defending himself? How does this confession expose when guilt demands purification, why Yahowah must choose to blot out perversity, and how true renewal follows covenant accountability?

CreativityTranscript
00:00Welcome.
00:29Welcome.
00:30Better late than never into the library studio of the Iowa Vlog.
00:34I'm your host, Craig Nguyen.
00:36We are going to continue with our ongoing story of the last word picture as we have
00:45learned thus far that Dode, who is the Messiah and the Son of God, he is our Savior, he is
00:51returning king. He's the person that was copied to create the myth of Jesus. He's the one we
01:01should be paying attention to. But as it would transpire, he had a very bad moment in his
01:09life. I think it was caused by having spent 48 years and the full brightness of responsibility
01:21to convey Yahweh's message to his people, a job that heretofore no one has been able to
01:28complete. He started drinking too much wine, made some terrible mistakes, and God condemned
01:39him for it. Not condemning him to hell, not condemning him to death, but accusing him, holding
01:46him accountable, and saying that he had disappointed him tremendously.
01:54And Dode, rather than trying to ascertain what he had done wrong, and then simply getting
02:07up and doing the right thing again, he doubled down on misery. And the 51st Psalm is testament
02:18to that. It is by far the worst of the 155 that we have in the Tanakh. It's horrible. He said
02:30unbelievably bad things after doing insanely bad things. Now, fortunately, we know that after I have
02:41finished reviewing this, my hope is that over the episodes today, tomorrow, that we complete the 51st,
02:52so that we can rejoin in the story of Dode with the 116th Mismore, because it is the glorious celebration
03:03of the realization that after the intervention by a surrogate mother and father, the Amma and her Baal husband,
03:15that Dode came to his senses. He not only manned up and started to fly right, as they say, but he agreed with the
03:28importance of fulfilling the mission. And that's what prepared him to be the Passover lamb, to carry our
03:35guilt and his into Sheol on Matzah, to become our savior. But we're a long way from that point. We're in the
03:43darkness of his lashing out at God, after God properly assessed his behavior and told Dode how disappointed he was
03:56in him. So, as we progress, we have gone through only three statements of the 51st. It's only 19
04:03statements long. It's just that each one is problematic. And in the fourth, we find that Dode is now doubling
04:13down on chata, which means to go away, to become misleading. And he's doing so by using the verbal root.
04:23And then Dode would add a dose of Ra, of evil ineptitude into the mix. And while the La Atta,
04:32toward you, introductory clause was true enough, the La Bad Atta, and only toward you, in what follows, was not.
04:43Towards you, and to you alone, I have chata, been mistaken, incurring the guilt of having gone astray.
05:00Chata'ani was, I was wrong for missing the way, forfeiting the relationship, and bearing the loss,
05:06incurring the resulting punishment of failing to accomplish the goal, and failing and falling well short.
05:13of the desired intent.
05:18And this raw, evil, malignant, and malevolent thing, this raw, this wicked, very bad, fiercely harmful,
05:30and miserably troubling, distressful act, in your sight, from your perspective and understanding,
05:39I did. So on that account, you may be justified and correct in speaking these words so emphatically
05:48for yourself. You are morally superior and justified, even acquitted, in your show of judgment.
06:00So hard to read these words because they are so distressing.
06:11Well, Dodd had destroyed his reputation. He had caused the death of many men. He compromised the
06:24integrity of the general defending his people. He forsook his role in the covenant. And he became a
06:32failure as a leader of God's people while undermining the credibility of everything he has said and done.
06:40And he would have us believe that the only one he failed was God.
06:47Well, let's start with adding one more to that list.
06:52How about himself? And if we want to be accurate, how about all of Israel, then and now?
07:03The raw evil and wicked thing that Dodd did was no longer just in the sight of God.
07:15Because, well, now he has become infamous for it. He had destroyed and buried himself,
07:22and he was rotting in his grave, according to Peter and Paul, because, well, they had every
07:28reason to assume that to be the case after this terrible ordeal. And then Akiba felt at liberty to
07:37replace Dodd with the likes of Bar Kokhba, the son of a star.
07:44The son of God was, at this moment, and the immediate future, as well, a bomb.
07:52A deadly and diabolical liberty. And yet, Dodd is inferring that God was being too critical of him,
08:04judging him too harshly by an unfair standard. It's like saying, just because you're perfect
08:10doesn't give you the right to impose your morality on the rest of us. Huh? You sure you want to tell God that?
08:18By stating both verbs in the infinitive, the king is claiming that God was being overly dramatic,
08:32too emphatic. This is further underscored by zakah, which implies that Dodd believed that Yahweh may have
08:41been justified, may have been justified on the account of him being morally superior.
08:50And no matter the implications, the plain reading of these words overtly state that Dodd was
08:57absolving Yahweh of guilt for having judged him.
09:01Well, that took some nerve, or at least another vat of wine, perhaps.
09:16Oh my. Playing the blame game, he would say. As a concession. In a won,
09:25the punitive consequences of perversity and corruption. In a distortion of what is right.
09:34And by bending and twisting what's proper and true. I suffered the effects of
09:41writhing and trembling. In tormenting anguish during birth.
09:47And so in chata error wrongly, bearing the blame for going astray, my mother, she conceived me like an animal in heat.
09:59That's what it says. I'm not making this stuff up.
10:04Psalm 51.5, if you wish to find it, to check it. Pretty astonishing. He is now saying, you know,
10:14you're blaming me, but it's not my fault. No, I was born this way. Yeah, as a concession,
10:21hen. So what if, since hypothetically and on the contrary, surely when?
10:28In a won. In the punitive consequences of perversity and corruption. In a distortion of what's right.
10:37And by bending and twisting what's proper and true.
10:40By a won, wickedly and in iniquity, wrongfully and libelously.
10:47I suffered the effects of writhing and trembling and tormenting anguish during birth.
10:54I was twisted up and distressed, shaken and suffering in labor.
10:58Oh, my. We're going to blame lusting for another man's woman, lying and taking her, essentially raping her, getting her pregnant, and then trying to convince the man whose woman she was to become gluttonous along with him.
11:21And then after he wouldn't play along, sending a note with him saying that I want him set up to die.
11:28And then recognizing he was murdered for this, and you want to blame it on childbirth?
11:40You want to say that all of this is the fault of you being wrongfully and libelously born in anguish and in turmoil because, well, you were twisted up and distressed, shaken and suffered during labor?
11:57You know, it's one thing to say, I don't know my mom.
12:03You know, you took me when I was eight, and we don't have a single woman from her.
12:09We don't know her name.
12:11She made no contribution whatsoever to Dode's life.
12:14Okay, so I don't know my mom.
12:15That's a tough way to start in this world.
12:19But to say, and so in Chata and Error, wrongfully bearing the blame and for going astray, my mother, she conceived me like an animal in heat?
12:32Yakum Ani, she was all hot and bothered sexually?
12:36Really, you want to go there?
12:38And we did.
12:42Just when we thought it couldn't get any worse.
12:45Oh, it does.
12:46But now at least we know why Dode grew up to see women.
12:52There's nothing more than sexual objects to be conquered.
12:58Like an obsessed ram in a rut.
13:03Not just in a rut.
13:05In rut.
13:10This confession, excuse me one second.
13:12My dog is biting her nails.
13:17This confession is as revealing, quite frankly, as it is deplorable.
13:26Its only advantage is that it affirms that I have correctly interpreted these lyrics.
13:33And that my criticisms are needed and they're appropriate.
13:38The hot mess is the Messiah.
13:43And if I may quote Nathan when addressing Dode.
13:47You are that man.
13:48This inappropriate and derogatory denouncement of the mother he barely knew
14:03helps explain why the wayward king was so stunned when he met the Amma.
14:10Yahweh's Amma.
14:11Leah.
14:11A woman who was brighter than she was beautiful and more beautiful because of her brilliance.
14:20He had never met anyone like her and immediately accepted her as his surrogate mother.
14:28But that was still, well, at least a decade from this event.
14:35As painfully obvious as it is that Dode is trying to obfuscate responsibility.
14:47He has come to model Yisrael.
14:52Like Dode, they also blame God for everything.
14:57By comparison, you know, my parents were between horrible and useless, as were Leah's.
15:05And yet we are better off for having overcome them.
15:09Likewise, Dode should have risen above his and used his independence and success
15:17as a springboard towards character development.
15:22I did.
15:23Leah did.
15:24He could have as well.
15:26He should have.
15:27As well.
15:30There is no transmission of impropriety through our genes.
15:37The sperm and egg making the life connection do not care if the sex that united them
15:44was boring or passionate, loving or hateful.
15:48Our soul is neither enhanced nor encumbered by the quality of intercourse or the nature of the relationship
15:57that led to its inception.
16:00So, while it's true that Dode was a loving and supportive father and mother, at least up to the point of our intervention,
16:12it is also relevant to note that he had Yahweh and his Ruach to guide him and to protect him.
16:18And it does not get any better than that.
16:20They have served as our mother and father, both for Leah and I.
16:27Now, sadly, the 66, 56-year-old king, well, he was trying to blame his stealing of another man's wife
16:41and having killed him on anguishing labor, as if he were somehow traumatized and handicapped morally because of it.
16:54He is even suggesting that he shouldn't have even been born, as if his entire life were a colossal mistake.
17:06Boy, he is wallowing in depression.
17:10This makes Dode irrational at this moment, even immoral.
17:16Quite frankly, bordering on insane.
17:18Was it the mounting pressure of the job, or is it now the alcohol speaking, or simply the consequence of depression?
17:33If not for the intervention presented in the last Mashal, Proverbs 31,
17:40humanity would have died in the midst of this stupor.
17:44Had Yahweh not resolved this crisis of character with the chosen Messiah and his son,
17:51there is no chance whatsoever that Dode would have been sufficiently trusted by God to fulfill Chagmatzah.
17:59Can you imagine dispatching this brat to do so?
18:07He would never have made it out of Sheol.
18:10He wouldn't even have known that it was his mission to fulfill.
18:20Dode, of course, continued to bury himself, and considering what followed in as a concession,
18:27what if, since hypothetically and contrarily, the last time,
18:31well, I shudder to think how our king will incriminate himself this time.
18:40Buckle your seats, adults.
18:43Hypothetically and contrarily,
18:45speaking,
18:47surely,
18:48the conformity and reliability,
18:50the honesty and truth
18:52you seem to want
18:55that you delight in and in favor
18:58is in the unknowable core
19:03of a person.
19:07It's hidden in the recesses.
19:10Be smeared,
19:12overlaid,
19:13plastered over.
19:14The capacity to understand
19:19and the mental aptitude
19:21you perceive
19:23somehow exists within me.
19:27You seem to know of me
19:30and have regaled regarding me
19:32is all secreted away.
19:35It's inaccessible.
19:36It's concealed
19:38inside of that which is hidden
19:41and completely closed off.
19:46Mismore Psalm,
19:47Psalm 51, 6.
19:50Well, by this time in his life,
19:51he's 56 years old.
19:53He's heard Yahweh say
19:54a lot of wonderful things about him,
19:56and he's saying,
19:56God, nah,
19:57you're wrong.
20:00All of this that you speak of,
20:03this conformity,
20:05this reliability,
20:06this sense of integrity
20:09and fidelity,
20:11morality
20:12that you seem to want,
20:14that you delight in,
20:15that you favor.
20:16Well,
20:17it's unknowable
20:18in the core
20:19of any person.
20:22It's hidden.
20:24It's overlaid.
20:25It's plastered over.
20:28He's saying
20:28it's not possible
20:29for anyone
20:30to live up
20:30to God's expectations.
20:35And then,
20:37pursuant to himself,
20:38he says,
20:39the capacity
20:39to understand
20:40the mental aptitude,
20:42the chakma,
20:43the intellectual agility,
20:45the cerebral prowess,
20:47the discernment
20:48and wisdom
20:48you perceive within me.
20:51you seem to think
20:54that this exists
20:55within me
20:56and it's revealed
20:57regarding me.
20:58Well,
20:58it's secreted away.
21:00It's inaccessible.
21:02It's concealed
21:03inside of that
21:04which is
21:05now hidden
21:06and closed off.
21:08It's blocked off,
21:10sealed up,
21:11and shut down.
21:12well,
21:16I would say
21:16that's thrown
21:17in the towel,
21:18isn't it?
21:21You're saying,
21:22God,
21:23you're wrong
21:23about me.
21:24You're wrong
21:24about people.
21:25You're wrong
21:25about me.
21:27Now,
21:28go away.
21:31Now,
21:32since
21:32him
21:33introduces
21:34a hypothetical
21:35with
21:36potentially
21:38conflicting
21:39messages,
21:41one would be
21:41naive to think
21:43that Dode
21:43was using
21:44the imperative
21:45mood
21:45any differently
21:47all of the time
21:49it's been used
21:50up to this point
21:51when projecting
21:51thoughts on
21:54Java.
21:55As I have shared,
21:56the imperative
21:58mood
21:58has three
21:59potential
22:00meanings.
22:01It is either
22:03an expression
22:04of second
22:04person
22:05volition,
22:05which you're
22:06saying,
22:06this is what
22:07you,
22:07and he's
22:08speaking to
22:08God,
22:08this is what
22:09you want,
22:10this is what
22:10you have
22:11decided upon.
22:12It's an
22:12imperative,
22:13meaning it's
22:13an order.
22:15You must
22:16do the
22:16following.
22:17You are
22:17compelled,
22:18you are
22:18ordered,
22:19you are
22:19commanded.
22:22That's not
22:23a very good
22:24approach when
22:25you're speaking
22:25to God,
22:26particularly in
22:27the position
22:27Dode was
22:27in at the
22:28moment.
22:30Or it's
22:31presented as
22:32hypothetical,
22:33as a mere
22:34possibility.
22:34of something
22:35that is
22:35highly
22:36unlikely.
22:39And with
22:40the doubling
22:40up of
22:41hen and two
22:42statements in
22:42a row,
22:43we certainly
22:44have to
22:45consider the
22:45hypothetical
22:46aspect of
22:47the imperative
22:48mood.
22:51And so
22:51with the
22:52second inclusion
22:53of hen and
22:54two consecutive
22:55statements,
22:55which are
22:56otherwise
22:56surrounded by
22:57the imperative
22:58mood,
22:59this is
23:01Dode's
23:01way of
23:02making all
23:02of this
23:03a confounding
23:04mix of
23:05hypotheticals,
23:07of concessions,
23:09of commands,
23:11and of
23:12projecting one's
23:13desires on
23:14others.
23:14Now, in
23:17this case,
23:18Dode is
23:18opting out.
23:19He is
23:19saying that
23:20Yahweh is
23:21either wrong
23:21about him
23:22or holding
23:22him to an
23:23unachievable
23:24standard.
23:24He is also
23:25mocking God,
23:26telling him
23:26that he's
23:27being unrealistic.
23:28He has
23:29told God
23:29that no one
23:30can live up
23:30to his
23:31expectations.
23:32Well, it
23:36could be the
23:37alcohol speaking
23:38or the
23:39consequence of
23:40depression.
23:41In his
23:41current state
23:42of mind,
23:43the king
23:43doesn't believe
23:44that it's
23:45even possible
23:46for him
23:47or anyone
23:48else to
23:49measure up
23:50to Yahweh's
23:51expectations.
23:52He is saying
23:52that even
23:53if he had
23:54the ability
23:54to conform
23:55to God's
23:56standard,
23:57to be as
23:57reliable as
23:58the Almighty
23:59requires,
24:00and to be
24:01as truthful
24:02as is
24:02necessary
24:03to garner
24:04the Almighty's
24:05favor,
24:06all of that
24:07is buried
24:07so deeply
24:08within him
24:09that it is
24:10undisclosed.
24:13It is
24:14unobtainable.
24:15It's sealed
24:16off,
24:17unreachable,
24:19unknowable.
24:23Well, this
24:24is the Moshe
24:24meltdown
24:25of
24:25Bamidbar
24:26Numbers 11
24:28where he
24:29told Yahweh
24:30that the job
24:30was miserable
24:31and impossible.
24:33He'd prefer
24:33to die
24:34rather than
24:35endure certain
24:36failures
24:36surrounded by
24:37the malcontents
24:39of this
24:40day.
24:43Doe did
24:43one worse
24:44than Moshe.
24:45Didn't think
24:46that was
24:46possible,
24:47but he did.
24:53There are
24:54two startling
24:56differences,
24:57however,
24:57and they're
25:00important
25:00and they're
25:02not flattering.
25:05First, it
25:06was the
25:06egregious
25:07behavior of
25:08the Israelites
25:08that had
25:10frustrated Moshe,
25:11who was of
25:11exemplary
25:12character,
25:15although it
25:15had brought
25:16this on
25:16himself.
25:19And second,
25:20Moshe didn't
25:21say that he
25:22was inadequate
25:23or improperly
25:24prepared,
25:25but that the
25:26job was
25:26impossible because
25:27of the
25:28onerous nature
25:29of the
25:29Israelites.
25:31But here,
25:33Doe is
25:34saying that
25:34he does not
25:36have the
25:36mental acuity
25:38to perform
25:39at the level
25:39that God
25:40expects.
25:41In his
25:42fallen state,
25:43he isn't
25:44near the
25:45man that
25:47Yahweh claimed
25:47him to be.
25:48If that
25:50man ever
25:50existed,
25:51according to
25:52Doe,
25:52those attributes
25:53were now
25:54concealed and
25:55inaccessible.
25:57He had
25:58drunk them
25:58into oblivion.
26:02In this
26:03way,
26:04Doe was
26:05being very
26:06Israeli,
26:09unable to
26:09admit that
26:10he had been
26:10dreadfully
26:11wrong.
26:13He said
26:14that God
26:14was wrong.
26:15Rather than
26:16acknowledging that
26:17Yahweh had
26:17been forth
26:18right,
26:19honorable,
26:20and truthful,
26:21he erased
26:22Yahweh's
26:23name from
26:25this
26:25mismor,
26:27and claimed
26:28God had
26:29been
26:29unreasonable.
26:33Yahweh's
26:33name doesn't
26:34appear anywhere
26:35in this text.
26:41Aggravating
26:42this problem,
26:44it was
26:45Yahweh,
26:46who was
26:47currently
26:48unseen and
26:49unavailable.
26:50God became
26:51so disappointed
26:52by Doe's
26:53failures to
26:53live up to
26:54his calling
26:54and to
26:55complete the
26:55job to
26:57which he
26:58had been
26:58given,
26:59he was now
27:00speaking through
27:01intermediaries,
27:02treating Doe
27:03like the rest
27:04of Israel.
27:06And like
27:06every other
27:07Jew,
27:08Doe felt so
27:09unworthy,
27:10he was having
27:11a pity party.
27:13Affirming this
27:14conclusion,
27:15the king
27:16wrote,
27:17you have
27:21chata,
27:21you have
27:23gone away
27:24from me,
27:25and you
27:25have been
27:26continually
27:27mistaken
27:27regarding me.
27:29You have
27:30incurred guilt
27:31for having
27:33been wrong
27:33about me.
27:34it's you
27:38who are
27:38lost,
27:40forfeiting
27:40the relationship
27:41with me,
27:42bearing the
27:43failure,
27:44including the
27:44resulting
27:45punishment
27:45of not
27:47being able
27:47to accomplish
27:48the goal
27:48with me,
27:50falling
27:51well short.
27:52with
28:01aesop,
28:02hyssop,
28:03I will
28:04be cleansed,
28:05I'm going
28:06to be
28:06restored,
28:07you're going
28:08to launder
28:09me,
28:10you will
28:11wash
28:11me,
28:13I will
28:15become
28:15whiter
28:16than snow.
28:1951,
28:217,
28:22either
28:29confused
28:30by wine
28:30or
28:31disoriented
28:31by
28:33crippling
28:33depression.
28:36Dode
28:37was
28:38flipping
28:38the
28:39tables
28:39and
28:39claiming
28:40that
28:40the
28:42God
28:42whose
28:42name
28:42he
28:43was
28:43too
28:43ashamed
28:43to
28:44even
28:44say
28:44is
28:46now
28:46chata,
28:47mistaken.
28:49And
28:50from
28:50Dode's
28:51sex
28:52and
28:52alcohol
28:53fused
28:54obsession,
28:57it's
28:58somehow
28:58God
28:58who
28:59chata
29:00has
29:02gone
29:02astray.
29:03in the
29:05twisted
29:06mentality
29:07of the
29:07king,
29:08God
29:08was
29:09chata
29:09guilty
29:10of
29:10having
29:10been
29:11wrong
29:11about
29:12him.
29:14And
29:14he was
29:16additioning
29:16to become
29:17the first
29:18rabbi.
29:21And
29:21after
29:22inverting
29:23reality,
29:24the king
29:25the king
29:25embarked
29:25on some
29:26rather
29:27clever
29:27quote
29:28mining,
29:29he would
29:29resolve
29:30the mess
29:30he had
29:31made
29:31with
29:31some
29:32hyssop.
29:35But
29:36by doing
29:37so,
29:37he was
29:38taunting
29:38God.
29:39You see,
29:41hyssop
29:42is first
29:43used in
29:44Cara
29:44Leviticus
29:451222.
29:47And it's
29:48used when
29:49addressing
29:49how
29:50Passover
29:51would
29:52become
29:52the
29:52door
29:52to
29:53life.
29:54It's
29:55the
29:55blood
29:55of
29:56the
29:56lamb
29:57that
29:57is
29:57smeared
29:58on the
29:58entrance
29:59to
29:59every
29:59home
30:00by
30:00dipping
30:00a
30:01bunch
30:01of
30:01hyssop
30:02into
30:02it.
30:08Oh,
30:08that
30:09had
30:10to
30:11hurt.
30:12I mean,
30:12if it's
30:12one thing,
30:12I mean,
30:13one thing,
30:14it's
30:15monumentally
30:16stupid
30:16to say,
30:17no,
30:17God,
30:18it's not
30:18me who's
30:18wrong,
30:19it's you
30:19who's
30:19wrong.
30:19You're
30:20wrong about
30:20me,
30:20you're
30:20wrong about
30:21everything.
30:22You're
30:23the one
30:23who forfeited
30:24this
30:24relationship,
30:25and because
30:25you forfeited
30:26the relationship,
30:27you aren't
30:27going to get
30:27what you
30:28want.
30:31And then
30:31to say,
30:32but with
30:33hyssop,
30:34you're going
30:35to scrub
30:35me clean,
30:36you're going
30:36to be my
30:36laundromat
30:37using
30:38hyssop.
30:42He didn't
30:43read the
30:43Torah.
30:44He knows
30:44when hyssop
30:45is used.
30:47It's used
30:48to smear
30:48the blood
30:50of the
30:50Passover
30:51lamb on
30:51the doorway
30:51to life.
30:53No
30:53hyssop,
30:54no sign,
30:56no extended
30:57life.
31:00Oh.
31:06Boy,
31:07this
31:07relationship
31:08needed
31:09resolution.
31:10no lamb,
31:13no blood,
31:15making that
31:16less than
31:16an ideal
31:17solution,
31:17but there
31:19were other
31:19options.
31:20For example,
31:21in
31:21Chara,
31:22Leviticus,
31:2214,
31:234 through
31:236,
31:24and
31:2449,
31:2552,
31:29Ezov
31:29is presented
31:30as a way
31:31of purging
31:31the stigma
31:32of leprosy,
31:34both in a
31:35man and
31:35in a
31:36house.
31:37And
31:38Dodd
31:38would have
31:39known all
31:40about the
31:41attempted
31:42subversion of
31:43Moshe's
31:44credibility as
31:46Yahweh's
31:46spokesman by
31:47his sister,
31:50Miriam,
31:50embittered,
31:51and how that
31:52resulted in her
31:53being afflicted
31:54with leprosy
31:55and disowned.
31:59So Dodd
32:00was rubbing
32:02this in
32:02too.
32:04He couldn't
32:04even keep the
32:05first family
32:06together.
32:08Therefore,
32:09just because
32:10he is
32:10currently
32:11stigmatized,
32:14leprous from
32:15God's point
32:16of view,
32:17well,
32:17he would
32:18avail himself
32:18and his
32:20household of
32:20the prescribed
32:22cure,
32:23Aesop.
32:24Who needs
32:25God?
32:27Just grab
32:27some
32:27hyssop.
32:29We know
32:30what it's
32:30curative
32:31for.
32:32Now,
32:34by mustering
32:35hyssop as
32:36the resolution
32:37to his
32:37current
32:38dilemma,
32:39Dodd was
32:40negating his
32:41own claim of
32:42dunderheadedness.
32:44That was
32:44really clever.
32:46Sinister,
32:47but clever.
32:48Apart from
32:49this citation,
32:51Aesop is
32:52only used on
32:53nine occasions,
32:54eight of
32:54which are
32:56in the
32:56Torah.
32:57I think it's
32:57actually seven
32:59of which are
33:00in the
33:01Torah.
33:02And in
33:02this regard,
33:03a particularly
33:04interesting use
33:05of Aesop,
33:07hyssop,
33:09is found in
33:10Bamidbar
33:10Numbers
33:1119.6
33:13and Numbers
33:1419.17
33:17through 19.
33:19This is
33:20obviously in
33:21conjunction with
33:22the Anima
33:22Parah.
33:25Aesop was
33:26added to the
33:26blazing fire
33:27of the
33:28altar in
33:30which the
33:31productive bull
33:32has been
33:33placed to
33:34purge the
33:35returning
33:36remnant of
33:37Yisrael
33:37on Teruah
33:40ten days
33:41before Dodd's
33:42return as
33:44king.
33:48The other,
33:49by the way,
33:49use of
33:50hyssop
33:51is in
33:54connection
33:54with
33:55Ethan.
33:56Ha is
33:58rocky.
34:00He's the
34:01man
34:01that wrote
34:03and delivered
34:04the 89th
34:05Mismore.
34:08We're going
34:08to learn a lot
34:09about him
34:10before very
34:11long.
34:15Should you be
34:16like me and
34:17wonder why
34:18Yawa
34:18would advocate
34:20hyssop
34:21as a remedy
34:22for leprosy
34:23and then
34:23advocate it
34:24associated
34:27with purging
34:29religious
34:30ailments?
34:32Well, you
34:32might find it
34:33interesting to
34:34note that
34:34hyssop actually
34:35offers a range
34:37of potential
34:37health benefits
34:39supported by
34:40both traditional
34:41medicinal use
34:43and emerging
34:44scientific research.
34:45Now, these
34:47include, let's
34:48go through
34:48them.
34:49Well, hey,
34:49there it
34:49is, skin
34:50health.
34:51When diluted
34:53hyssop,
34:54essential oils
34:55are successfully
34:56used to
34:57treat epidermis
34:59infections,
35:00even acne
35:01and puncture
35:02wounds, and
35:03it is known
35:04to restore
35:04disfigured
35:06and scarred
35:07tissues
35:08due to its
35:09antiseptic
35:10and anti-inflammatory
35:13properties.
35:13God was
35:15right.
35:17Two, it's
35:19antimicrobial
35:20and antiviral.
35:21Both hyssop
35:23exhibit strong
35:24antimicrobial,
35:26antifungal,
35:27and antiviral
35:29properties.
35:30It is used
35:31therapeutically to
35:32treat all
35:33manner of
35:34ailments and
35:35is even
35:36proved to
35:37inhibit herpes
35:39viruses and
35:40to treat
35:41respiratory and
35:42urinary tract
35:43infections.
35:43Three, both
35:46immune and
35:47circulatory.
35:50Hyssop
35:50boosts immune
35:51function by
35:52fighting pathogens
35:54and improving
35:54circulation.
35:56It is a
35:56proven remedy
35:57for arthritis,
35:59for gout,
36:00for inadequate
36:01blood flow.
36:03Number four,
36:04respiratory support.
36:06The herb
36:06acts as an
36:07expectorant,
36:08helping to
36:09loosen
36:09mucus
36:11and relieve
36:12coughs,
36:13colds,
36:14bronchitis,
36:14and asthma
36:15symptoms.
36:16It restores
36:18airway constriction
36:19and relieves
36:21allergic reactions.
36:23Doing more
36:24effectively,
36:26doing this more
36:27effectively,
36:29than some
36:30cortisone
36:31steroids,
36:32cortisone and
36:34steroids,
36:35don't perform
36:36as well.
36:38Boy.
36:41Dr.
36:41Ya,
36:42it also
36:44serves in
36:46the digestive
36:46tract.
36:47The oils
36:48extracted from
36:49the hyssop
36:51herb
36:51stimulate the
36:53production of
36:54digestive enzymes
36:56and bile,
36:58improving digestion,
36:59reducing gas,
37:00bloating and
37:01cramping.
37:02It even
37:02serves to
37:03protect the
37:04stomach lining
37:05and therefore
37:05helps to
37:06prevent ulcers.
37:09Six,
37:09it's anti-inflammatory
37:10and it's
37:11an antioxidant.
37:16Hyssop
37:16is rich
37:17in
37:18polyphenols
37:20and
37:21flavonoids
37:22such that
37:23the herb
37:24combats
37:27oxidative
37:31stress.
37:32It reduces
37:33inflammation
37:34while lowering
37:34the risk
37:35of chronic
37:37diseases,
37:38including
37:39cancer.
37:43And seven,
37:45mental and
37:46emotional well-being.
37:47Hyssops,
37:47calming aroma,
37:49is used in
37:50aromatherapy to
37:51reduce stress,
37:52to enhance mood,
37:54and to promote
37:55recovery from
37:56anxiety and
37:57depression.
37:59In addition,
38:00the prolific
38:01lavender flowers
38:03seem symbolic
38:04of Shamaim
38:05and indicative
38:07of the concluding
38:08colors of the
38:10rainbow as we
38:11move into the
38:11fall,
38:12Moedim.
38:15Well,
38:16that was quite
38:17a lesson.
38:19Our king was
38:20clearly brighter
38:21and better in
38:22form than he
38:23was letting on.
38:24It's also
38:25interesting that
38:27of the 20
38:28occurrences of
38:29Shaleg
38:29snow in the
38:31Toran prophets,
38:32we find two
38:33of them in
38:33the final
38:34Mishal and
38:36in this
38:37related Mismore.
38:39The first
38:40presentation of
38:41Shaleg is in
38:42Shemoth,
38:44Exodus 4,
38:456,
38:45when Moshe's
38:46hand was
38:46turned leprous
38:47as a sign,
38:50therefore white
38:50as snow.
38:51But the
38:52most revealing
38:53declaration regarding
38:54snow is found
38:55in Yahshia,
38:56Isaiah 1,
38:5818,
38:59which also
38:59combines scarlet
39:01and snow in
39:02the same manner
39:03of the last
39:04word picture.
39:07Now,
39:07scummy as he
39:08was at the
39:09moment.
39:09Dode was
39:10convinced that
39:11Yahweh was
39:12going to clean
39:13him up one
39:14way or another.
39:15He knew that
39:16God had more
39:17writing on this
39:18than did the
39:19king.
39:19the whole
39:20human
39:21experience,
39:21the entire
39:22creation of
39:23the universe,
39:25life,
39:27his
39:28story,
39:29his people.
39:32And he
39:33had an
39:33inkling as
39:34to how it
39:35was all
39:36going to
39:36play out,
39:37even in the
39:37midst of his
39:38egotistical
39:39temper tantrum.
39:42Oh,
39:42did I hear
39:43someone say
39:43egotistical
39:45temper tantrum?
39:46You listen
39:50to me.
39:51You pay
39:51attention to
39:52what I'm
39:52saying and
39:53hear me.
39:55Joyful and
39:56happy,
39:57even delighted
39:58and glad.
40:01The backbone
40:02and body,
40:03these bones
40:04that you have
40:04crushed,
40:06that you have
40:06pulverized,
40:07they now
40:08shrink,
40:10shriek,
40:11and they
40:11tremble.
40:13gill.
40:15They will
40:16shout and
40:16scream during
40:18another stage
40:19of life.
40:2151.8.
40:24Well,
40:25there are
40:25times when
40:26Dode correctly
40:26states that
40:27Yahweh listens
40:28to him,
40:29but this is
40:31not one of
40:32them.
40:32The king is
40:33stating that
40:34God is
40:34celebrating
40:35his plight,
40:37knowing that
40:38he and his
40:39people will
40:40have to
40:40fight for
40:41their very
40:42survival.
40:43Worse,
40:43Dode is
40:43blaming
40:44Yahweh for
40:45crushing
40:45him.
40:47In
40:48actuality,
40:48it's the
40:49bull hinted
40:50at in the
40:51previous statement
40:52and mentioned
40:52at the
40:54conclusion of
40:55the Ms.
40:55Moore,
40:55who is
40:56daka,
40:57crushed,
40:58with only
40:59one bone
41:00left unbroken,
41:01which is not
41:03the case with
41:03the Passover
41:04lamb.
41:06And while
41:06this is all
41:07jumbled and
41:08twisted,
41:09there are some
41:10signs of
41:11lucidity in
41:12the midst
41:12of the
41:13toxicity.
41:15This is
41:16wrong,
41:17even if
41:18partially
41:19true.
41:20Yahweh
41:21didn't want
41:22any of
41:23this to
41:24occur.
41:25And the
41:25last thing
41:26he wanted
41:26was to
41:28walk away
41:28from his
41:28son.
41:30But under
41:31the circumstances
41:32imposed by
41:34the king
41:35under the
41:37auspices of
41:38free will.
41:39God had no
41:40alternative but
41:41to distance
41:42himself from
41:43this mess.
41:48You must
41:49want to
41:51hide.
41:52As an
41:53imperative,
41:54you have
41:55chosen to
41:56conceal
41:57your presence,
41:59your very
42:00face,
42:01and appearance
42:02because of
42:04my
42:04chata'ah
42:05retreat for
42:06having gone
42:06astray with
42:08me bearing
42:08the blame and
42:09resulting
42:09guilt.
42:11So you
42:12must choose
42:13to wipe
42:14away and
42:15blot out
42:16as a
42:17command,
42:17a hypothetical
42:18or of
42:19volition.
42:21Decide
42:21one way or
42:22the other to
42:23wash off
42:24and clean
42:24my
42:26awon,
42:27my
42:28punitive
42:29consequence of
42:31my perversions
42:32and corruptions
42:33for having
42:34bent and
42:34twisted the
42:36truth.
42:38Mismore
42:39Psalm
42:3951.9
42:41Dode
42:45would
42:46eventually
42:47come clean
42:47both in
42:49the recognition
42:51that he had
42:52been horribly
42:52wrong and
42:53also in
42:53realizing that
42:54it was
42:55essential that
42:56he come to
42:56grips with
42:57his purpose
42:57and complete
42:58the job
42:59for which he
43:00had been
43:01chosen.
43:03And by
43:03doing so
43:04on matzah,
43:06his guilt
43:07and ours
43:07would be
43:08removed.
43:10But now
43:11at this
43:12moment,
43:13God is
43:13not obliged
43:15to remove
43:16his guilt,
43:17not his,
43:18not ours.
43:19In fact,
43:20he will
43:22not do
43:22so without
43:23our participation
43:24in the
43:25process.
43:27Dode
43:27was not
43:32returning to
43:33his senses.
43:34He was
43:34not yet
43:35accepting
43:35responsibility
43:36to the
43:37extent that
43:38he could
43:39complete
43:39his calling
43:40and therefore
43:42our guilt
43:43would remain
43:44his still
43:46remained at
43:47this point.
43:50So as
43:51we have
43:52discussed,
43:52it's imperative
43:53that we
43:55understand the
43:56imperative.
43:58This mood
43:59normally serves
44:00to express
44:01volition in
44:02second person,
44:03conveying the
44:03will and
44:04intent of
44:06the one
44:06being addressed.
44:08It can also
44:09represent a
44:10command, as I
44:11have shared,
44:12and as the
44:12name suggests,
44:14creating an
44:14imperative where
44:15the subject is
44:16ordered to
44:18comply.
44:19There is
44:21also a
44:22time when
44:23it is used
44:24to sidestep
44:25reality, to
44:26convey a
44:27mere possibility,
44:28whether credible
44:30or not, but
44:31as a
44:31hypothetical.
44:33And so
44:33in Dode's
44:34current
44:34depressed,
44:35intoxicated,
44:36and rebellious
44:36state, all
44:38of these must
44:39be considered.
44:41And in the
44:41most favorable
44:42interpretation,
44:43as an
44:44expression of
44:44free will,
44:45Dode would
44:46be projecting
44:46that it
44:48was Yahweh's
44:49choice, his
44:51decision and
44:52will, to
44:53conceal his
44:54presence from
44:56the guilt and
44:57because of the
44:58retreat.
45:00Should this be
45:01the intent,
45:02then Yahweh is
45:02being blamed for
45:04disappearing,
45:05even from
45:07running away
45:08from these
45:09adverse
45:10circumstances,
45:11rather than
45:12trying to
45:12resolve them.
45:14Then, following
45:15along with
45:16this approach,
45:18Dode could
45:18be saying
45:19that it
45:20became
45:20incumbent on
45:21God to
45:22wipe all
45:23this away,
45:24blotting it
45:25out, removing
45:27the litany
45:28of horrid
45:29behavior, all
45:30to resolve
45:31God's
45:33dilemma, such
45:36that he
45:36decided to
45:37walk away.
45:40However, it
45:41is impossible
45:42to blot
45:43out the
45:44fact that
45:44Dode
45:45committed
45:45these
45:46crimes.
45:47Obviously, we
45:48know all
45:49about them.
45:51The stigma
45:52remains highly
45:53visible, and
45:54Yahweh is on
45:55record saying
45:56that there
45:57would be
45:58severe and
45:59ongoing
45:59consequences
46:00rather than
46:02forgiveness.
46:04However,
46:06Dode's
46:06troubling
46:06assessments,
46:07they only get
46:08worse when
46:10interpreted as
46:12if they
46:13are commands.
46:14The king
46:15was in no
46:16position to
46:16give orders
46:17to God,
46:18and that
46:19leaves us
46:19with
46:20perceiving
46:22them as
46:23mere
46:23hypotheticals
46:24unrelated to
46:25reality and
46:26therefore wishful
46:27thinking.
46:28And while that's
46:28better than
46:29wallowing in
46:29depression,
46:30it's hardly
46:31the stuff of
46:32legends,
46:32is it?
46:35Unfortunately,
46:35there is no
46:37resolving this
46:37problem.
46:39Unlike his
46:40opening statements
46:40where we
46:41could redirect
46:42the mood by
46:43changing Dode's
46:44expression to
46:46the cohortative,
46:47making this a
46:49conveyance of
46:50his desire,
46:51that does not
46:52work with,
46:53I want you to
46:55conceal your
46:56presence, would
46:56it?
46:58That is, unless
46:59he actually wants
47:00God to look
47:00away and to
47:01go away, and
47:03that would be
47:04worse.
47:06Yahweh is
47:06deeply vested
47:08in humanity.
47:09He wants us
47:09to live up to
47:10his expectations
47:11and to
47:12demonstrate that
47:13we can be
47:13perceptive,
47:15reflective,
47:16responsive,
47:17and reliable
47:18in our
47:20inclinations and
47:21disposition,
47:23especially in
47:25our judgment.
47:26But this is
47:28only an
47:31imperative in
47:32the sense that
47:33if we fail,
47:34we're done.
47:35And yet,
47:38of course,
47:39that is on
47:39us, not
47:41him.
47:44It is true,
47:45however, that
47:46Yahweh found a
47:47way to resolve
47:48his son's
47:49emotional outburst
47:50while reestablishing,
47:52I should say,
47:53a more appropriate
47:54sense of right
47:55and wrong for
47:57the king.
47:57And for that,
47:59he would dispatch
48:00the most
48:00judgmental soul
48:03in his
48:04arsenal.
48:06Yadda,
48:07the parbol.
48:10But even
48:10then, the
48:11Baal, a
48:12master of
48:13pertinent
48:13diath,
48:14knowledge,
48:15would not be
48:16deployed as
48:17an uncompromising
48:19judge of
48:19character
48:20until the
48:22despondent son
48:23was walked
48:23off the
48:24ledge by
48:25his surrogate
48:26Amma,
48:27mother.
48:27Now, that
48:30said,
48:30Yahweh wasn't
48:31about to
48:32Bara start
48:33over by
48:34conceiving
48:35something
48:35entirely new
48:37from scratch.
48:38The existing
48:39soul would
48:41get his act
48:42together instead.
48:45But this is
48:46what Dode had
48:46to say,
48:47and we'll
48:47conclude our
48:48program with
48:49this thought.
48:51You must
48:52choose to
48:52create.
48:53It is
48:54imperative
48:55that you
48:56decide to
48:57fashion and
48:58form that
48:59which has
49:00never
49:00previously
49:01existed,
49:03clean and
49:04pure.
49:06Judgment,
49:07thoughts,
49:07and emotions,
49:09inclination,
49:10and disposition,
49:13all for me,
49:14God.
49:16Then,
49:17it is
49:18imperative that
49:19you decide
49:20to repair,
49:21restoring and
49:22renewing by
49:23appointing a
49:24firm and
49:25establishing a
49:26steadfast
49:27ruach,
49:28spirit,
49:29within me.
49:32Mismore
49:32Psalm,
49:33Psalm 5110.
49:37I'm going to
49:38summarize this,
49:39and we'll
49:39return to this
49:39passage at the
49:40beginning of our
49:41next program.
49:43But here,
49:44Dode is again
49:45projecting on
49:47Yahweh,
49:49and saying that,
49:50God, you need to
49:50start all over.
49:51Mora means to
49:52create something
49:54which has
49:55never existed
49:55before.
49:56You don't
49:57Mora to
49:58improve that
49:59which exists.
50:01You Mora
50:01to start
50:03from scratch.
50:04The first
50:05word is
50:06Mora,
50:07and the
50:08opening line
50:09of the Torah,
50:10and God
50:10Mora created.
50:13Mora from
50:13nothing.
50:15Mora.
50:16Oh,
50:17Dode is saying,
50:18you need to
50:18start all over
50:19again.
50:21You need to
50:21recreate
50:22someone with
50:24judgment,
50:26with thoughts
50:27and inclinations,
50:28with disposition.
50:29So you need
50:30to choose
50:32to create
50:33clean and
50:35pure,
50:36to harm
50:37majestic and
50:38brilliant thoughts
50:40and emotions,
50:41inclinations,
50:42and disposition
50:42for me.
50:43It's not
50:44my job
50:45to get
50:45my act
50:46together.
50:46It's not
50:46my job
50:47to become
50:47moral and
50:48righteous and
50:50correct.
50:51It's your
50:52job.
50:53Fix me.
50:56And oh,
50:56by the way,
50:57that spirit
50:58you gave me
50:58is broken.
51:00I need a
51:01new
51:01ruach.
51:03This one I
51:03need to be,
51:05you know,
51:05like,
51:06more reliable,
51:08more stable.
51:09I need
51:10more
51:10more
51:10more
51:10more
51:10more
51:11more
51:12So you
51:14need to
51:14renew
51:15that
51:17ruach.
51:21It's hard
51:21to imagine
51:22him getting
51:23to place
51:24he would
51:24say any
51:24of these
51:25things.
51:26But he
51:26did.
51:28And that
51:29makes the
51:29intervention
51:30by Leia
51:32as the
51:33Amma
51:33and her
51:35ball
51:35as Yada
51:36among
51:39the most
51:40intriguing
51:40events
51:42and all
51:44of human
51:44history.
51:46And of
51:47course,
51:47we now
51:48know that
51:48the final
