Everything Wrong With Exodus 34 in the Bible

I still think G-man missed a big chance - I mean 20 commandments and he ~could~ have said, like, "no slavery, no racism, equal rights for women, no war, be nice to everyone", stuff like that. But thanks for the "no cooking a kid in its mother's milk". I can honestly say I've lived up to that one!

@@gracewilliams6145 Was your comment to me? And, should I assume, since those who consider a 'sripture' holy, claim those they were raised with, that, this being USA, you mean the modern christian Bible? Not any of the much older hindu scriptures, or greek, roman , sumerian or, well, honestly, just about every culture has had their 'holy' scriptures. The bible we know today, is so very different from the early versions. First Paul created a lot of it, using, of course the Hebrew torah that he grew up with. But, he had to change a lot of the laws, since he wanted to bring in the non jews. Then, later church 'fathers' added to his writings, though using his name, to add that women couldn't have any power in it, contrary to all of pauls' early teachings. So, reading ot now makes it even more contradictory and nonsensical than it was! But, even what we have non, reads like a comedy of errors, as the gods in both the old and new 'testaments' grow and change as you read from cover to cover. Like all other fables. I'm not sure why people revere these books, other than being raised to. Their age? There are others much older. And, archeology, geology, biology and astronomy have all proven all these stories just poorly written mythology. So of course we can laugh at our ancient, silly fears. Especially considering the terrible harm they've done, and continue to do, to our species! 🥰✌

Another surprise: God hates 'Asherah poles'. I think Asherah was the goddess and wife of the god El. Yahweh was also called El. So does that mean, at sometime in the distance past, God and Asherah broke up and he does not want to talk about it? Must have been a nasty divorce. We all have seen this before. No wonder he has got anger issues. #InquiringMindsWantToKnow

[@kendee4421]

Asherah was God's wife and both were worshipped. Obviously, the male priests wanted rid of her, but it didnt work as she became Ashteroth, Astarte, Isis and Ishtar. Every year we have a celebration for Ishtar whose Celtic name was Eostre - Easter! Her worship was continued by the Catholic Church under the guise of Mary. All of these goddesses were Queens of Heaven and stars of the sea, Stella Maris, Maria..

[@blksmagma]

I like to think that when Yahweh challenged for the right to rule the other gods he took both the name of El and his wife as his own and then slowly disowned her. In reality, what probably happened was that after polytheism and henotheism became unpopular in the Middle East and monotheism was becoming more popular, the priests starting editing out some of the aspects of the other gods and attributed everything thing they could to Yahweh. This was in addition to the power grab they did by banning the use of the other shrines. They then removed and/or destroyed the ritual objects of the other gods in the temple and edited parts of the texts to make it look like they were always strictly monotheistic. They still left a few tidbits here and there to not piss off the other worshippers too much. Its hilariously ironic because, as another person stated, Christianity basically reimplemented the worship of Ashera under another name all we need is a tree or pole of some kin- hey, is that a cross?!

Well, Yahweh inherited El's wife as the Israelites transitioned from polytheism to monotheism. He was originally *a* son of El. The Israelites emerged out of the **older** Canaanite culture. Canaanite and Hebrew languages are indistinguishable the further you go back in time. *Hebrew is essentially a Canaanite dialect.* This has been shown by linguistics analysis and also addressed by Dr Christine Hayes at Yale University in her lectures, hence why she says when you go back far enough in time you'd be hard pressed to tell the difference between Canaanite and Hebrew. Lecture 7 from 30:00 minutes onwards and lecture 8 from 12:00 to 19:00 minutes. Also Google *"Jews and Arabs Descended from Canaanites - Biblical Archaeology Society."* Inscriptions were found in the form of blessings referencing *"Yahweh and his Asherah"* when Asherah was originally the wife of the *older* Canaanite god El. This is shown in the article *"God’s Wife Edited Out of the Bible - Almost."* Asherah became the wife of Yahweh as he inherited the top spot in the pantheon, before religious reforms. *Inscriptions found at Kuntillet Ajrud (dated between 850 and 750 BCE) say:* I bless you through Yahweh of Samaria, and through his Asherah! *And at El Qom (from the same period) this inscription:* Uriyahu, the king, has written this. Blessed be Uriyahu through Yahweh, and his enemies have been conquered through Yahweh's Asherah. *That Yahwists worshipped Asherah until the 3rd century before Christ is well known from the Elephantine Papyri. Thus, for many in ancient Israel, Yahweh, like Baal, had a consort.* Yahweh has the same characteristics and descriptions as *both* the Canaanite gods El and Baal. Yahweh is described as riding on the clouds just like Baal and Yahweh is also depicted as defeating the same enemies as Baal. This is outlined by Dr Hayes in her lectures. *El and Yahweh are attributed same characteristics.* El is depicted as a wise old man with a beard eg “You are great, O El, and your hoary beard instructs you”. Yahweh is described in the same terms (Daniel 7:9, Job 36:26, Habakkuk 3:6). Like “Kind El, the Compassionate”, Yahweh is a “merciful and gracious god”. The description of Yahweh’s dwelling place as a tent (Psalms 15:1, 27:6, 91:10) recalls the tent of El in the Canaanite narrative of Elkunirsa. Finally, both Yahweh and El are said to dwell amidst cosmic waters (Isaiah 33:20-22, Ezekiel 47:1-12, Zechariah 14:8). *Yahweh is also depicted as defeating Baal’s classic enemies:* Baal/Yahweh defeats a seven headed dragon, Leviathan, and River (CAT 5.1, Psalm 74:13-15). Baal/Yahweh defeats Sea (KTU 1.14, Psalm 89:10). Baal/Yahweh defeats Death/Mot (KTU 1.4 VIII-1.6, Isaiah 25:8). The Canaanite gods El and Asherah have *70* sons. According to the table of nations there were *70* nations after the *supposed* flood (there was never a global flood). In ancient times each god was thought to reside over a particular territory or people. This ties in with the paragraph below and as explained in *"The Most Heiser"* article, based on the *majority scholarly consensus.* Yahweh was only originally the patron deity of the Israelites just like the Canaanite god Chemosh was the patron deity of the Moabites. Yahweh was assigned the people of Israel by El the *Most High (Elyon)* god in the Canaanite pantheon. The ancient city of Ugarit was discovered in 1928 in Syria. The height of the Ugaritic civilization was around the 12th Century BCE making them contemporaries with the Israelites. Also, the religion and language of the Ugarit people are very similar to that of the Israelites. Excavations of the site revealed an ancient library filled with clay tablets. *One such tablet states that El Elyon had seventy sons (the Elim) and each son was allocated to a specific people* ((El and Asherah had 70 sons)). *Can you see the close parallels between Deuteronomy 32:8, Genesis 10 and the Ugarit tablets? According to these sources, Elyon divided up all the nations into* **seventy** *nations ((El and Asherah had 70 sons)), one for each of his sons (Elim).* The Canaanite god El under his title *Elyon (Most High)* in Deuteronomy 32:8-9 assigns the people of Jacob to Yahweh just like the Canaanite god Chemosh is assigned to the people of Moab in Numbers 21:29. This ties in with the Table of Nations and each god being assigned to their own territory and people. Yahweh received Israel from El. This is outlined in the article *"The Most Heiser"* based on the *majority scholarly consensus.* *Other biblical passages reaffirm this archaic view of Yahweh as a god in El’s council. Psalm 82:1 speaks of the “assembly of El,” Psalm 29:1 enjoins “the sons of El” to worship Yahweh, and Psalm 89:6-7 lists Yahweh among El’s divine council.* In Psalm 82, we see Yahweh *not at the head of the pantheon, but later asked to assume the job of all gods.* “Yahweh stands in the *divine assembly of El.* Among the divinities, he pronounces judgment… Arise O Yahweh, judge the world; *for You inherit all the nations.”* Genesis 49:24-25 and Numbers 23-24 also view YHWH and El existing as distinct deities. Why would Yahweh have to inherit all the nations if he was the top god and creator of the world and universe? Shouldn't they be his already? This is explained in *"The Most Heiser"* article based on the *majority scholarly consensus.* All this ties together to show that Yahweh was originally a lesser god in the Canaanite pantheon who inherited the top position and assimilated both El and Baal and inherited El’s wife as the Israelites transitioned from polytheism to monotheism, before religious reforms "divorced" Yahweh from Asherah as he became the one "true" god. He followed the same pattern of development as other fictional gods in the ANE (Ancient Near East). This is outlined in the article *"The Most Heiser"* based on the *majority scholarly consensus.* The two contradictory Genesis accounts make sense now as one version represents the older polytheism with El talking to his pantheon with "Let *us* (gods ((El)ohim)) make man in *our* image". The other Genesis account refers to YHWH/Yahweh and monotheism.

[@LM-jz9vh]

*The Canaanite pantheon was conceived as a divine clan, headed by the supreme god El; the gods collectively made up the (El)ohim.* Through the centuries, the pantheon of Canaanite gods evolved, so that El and Asherah were more important in earlier times, while Baal and his consorts came to fore in later years. Some of the deities listed below are mentioned only briefly in the Canaanite texts, while others were important locally or nationally-such as Chemosh-but not throughout the region. Still others, such a Moloch, are known mainly from Hebrew texts *Anat* -goddess of war, ever-virgin sister-wife of Baal, honored as a protector, agent of vengeance, and bearer of life *Asherah* -early semitic Mother goddess, "Lady of the sea," *consort of El,* also called Athirat, the *mother of 70 gods* Astarte-goddess of love and fertility, sometimes the consort of Baal/Hadad Baalat or Baalit-the chief deity of Byblos, also identified with Astarte and Aphrodite *Ba'al* -meaning "Lord," god of rain, thunder, and fertility, sometimes synonymous with Hadad; also used as a title prefixing the names of local deities Baal-Hammon-god of fertility and renewal in the Phoenician colonies of the Western Mediterranean *Chemosh* -the national god of Moab, referred to in both Moabite and Hebrew texts *Dagon* -god of crop fertility, sometimes identified with Hadad *El* -the chief deity, god of the sky, father of many lesser gods and ruler of the divine assembly, *also worshiped by the Israelites* *El* *Elyon*-Special title of El as "God *Most High"* Eshmun-Phoenician god of healing Kathirat-a group of goddesses appearing in the Ugartic texts as divine midwives Kothar-full name Kothar-wa-Khasis, the skilled, clever god of craftsmanship and weapon-making Lotan-the seven-headed *(sound familiar?)* sea serpent or dragon, the pet of Yam or Yam's alter ego, *related to the biblical Leviathan* Melqart-also called Baal-Melkart, the god who is king of the city, the underworld, and the cycle of vegetation in Tyre, *also the patron of the Israelite queens Jezebel and Athaliah* *Moloch* -title for the god who is "king," probably identical with Milcom and known mainly from the Hebrew Bible as the deity to whom child sacrifices were offered *Mot* -god of the underworld, sterility, death, and the waterless desert Nikkal-goddess of fruit and orchards, married to Yarikh Qadeshtu-the Holy One, goddess of love, also a title given to Asherah and related to the Egyptian goddess Hathor Resheph-God of plague and healing *Shalim* and Shachar -twin gods of dusk and dawn Shamayim-the god of the sky or the heavens *Shemesh* -Mesopotamian god of the sun also worshiped in Canaan, meaning "sun" in Hebrew possibly related to the hero, Samson Tanit-Phoenician lunar goddess, worshiped as the patron goddess at Carthage, and sometimes identified with Astarte or Anat *Yam* -god of the sea Yarikh-god of the moon, *after whom the city of Jericho was named;* Lord of the sickle, provider of nightly dew; married to the goddess Nikkal *Yahweh* -The Israelite god, worshiped not only by the Hebrews but *also by eastern Canaanites such as the prophet Balaam (Numbers 22) and the Shashu of Edom* *Further, most Israelite cities were named after the gods in El’s assembly.* The god *Anat* was honored in the city of Anathoth, the place of origin of the prophet Jeremiah. The god *Dagan (Dagon)* in Beth-Dagan. The god *El* in Beth-El. The god *Shamash (Shemesh)* in Beth-Shamash. The god *Shalimu (Shalim)* in Jerusalem.

The ‘god of the gaps’ objection is an overused atheist cliché. In popular atheist discourse it is commonly used as an indiscriminate intellectual weapon. The assumption of this objection is that science will eventually explain the need for God by providing explanations for the currently unexplained phenomena. In the context of the design argument, the ‘god of the gaps’ objection carries little weight. Here are four reasons why: 1. When an atheist puts forward this objection, he or she is essentially claiming that given the scientific data we have accumulated thus far, a designer is actually the best explanation for the universe’s design, but there’s still some hope that in some unspecified future, scientific progress will refute the design argument. This is nothing short of blind faith in science, as it is tantamount to saying, “Science cannot address this issue, but we have hope.” 2. The atheist’s predicament gets worse once we consider that a key premise of the ‘god of the gaps’ objection is false. It holds that science will eventually close the gap in our knowledge. However, science does not always close the gaps; it sometimes widens them. A hundred years ago we believed that cells were just blobs of protoplasm. However, since the 1950s we have become aware of the vast information-coding system in all cells. This discovery, instead of answering our questions, widened the gap in our understanding of how the first cells emerged. 3. I would like to ask the atheist to consider what questions science has actually answered. Science has shown mechanisms within the universe, how everything works and the physical laws involved. However, science has failed to provide answers to questions that have deep existential significance. Science has not explained fine-tuning, the beginning of the universe the origins of life, nor the nature and emergence of consciousness. Science does not have a good track record of answering questions that have profound metaphysical implications. 4. The atheist assumes that the God explanation is a scientific one. Postulating a cosmic designer is a philosophical (or metaphysical) explanation, which aims to explain the finetuning of the universe. Notwithstanding, some atheists maintain that the ‘god of the gaps’ objection is an argument from ignorance and not an adherence to the position that science will one day fill the gap. They maintain that not knowing how a finely-tuned universe was produced is arguing from ignorance. They also argue that the design argument assumes the knowledge gap will remain forever. This formulation of the ‘god of the gaps’ objection assumes that behind every gap has (or should have) a naturalistic explanation. The design explanation is a metaphysical explanation that best explains our current knowledge of the universe’s finely-tuned features. Further, the design explanation can also be considered as an inference to the best explanation. Inference to the best explanation is not an argument from ignorance; it is an indispensable way of thinking that attempts to coherently explain a set of data and/or background information. The design conclusion is the inference to the best explanation given the data we currently have. Instead of indiscriminately using the ‘god of the gaps’ objection, the atheist should show why the design explanation is not the best explanation and provide a better one for everyone to assess

@@nomejest5919 The ‘god of the gaps’ objection is an overused atheist cliché. (No, i think it is accurate that every single time when humans have not been able to explain something with science, there have been countless theists screaming "my god did that". Now in the 21 century where we are able to explain pretty much everything with science, the place where gods can exist has become very very tiny. Pretty much only two big unanswered questions remain, the origin of the universe and how exactly the first living cells formed, and given that theists have been wrong in 100% of all the other times they screamed "god did that", i see no reason to think that they might be correctthis time.

Please understand that our universe is dead and lethal to way over 99.9999999999999999999999999999...%, full of exploding and imploding galaxies, supernovas and black holes, please explain in what way this is evidence for an intelligent creator, and for which of the endless amount of different godclaims this should be evidence? Talos, the god of destruction?) scientific progress will refute the design argument. (Science is a tool, it deals with stuff you can test, observe and measure. imaginary creatures from the darkage are not part of that. All science has to say about supernatural stuff is that it has never been demonstrated to even be possible, let alone plausible.) This discovery, instead of answering our questions, widened the gap in our understanding of how the first cells emerged. (Dude, it is not my intention to insult you but come on, you live in the 21 century, we know pretty much everything there is to know from 1 cell organisms to what we have today, and all this knowledge is so much more fascinating than fairytales about talking snakes and magic creatures made out of dirt or ribs.) Science has not explained... (So you prefer a lie instead of the only true answer which is "nobody knows"? And in which of the endless amount of gods should atheists now believe? "This universe is only dead and lethal to about 99.99999999999...%, this shows that...(fill in the god you have been brainwashed to accept as real before you reached the age of reason)?!

Probably the others have left on their migration south. I expect this little one to leave any time as well. I found these interesting factoids. "Some hummingbirds travel over 2,000 miles twice a year. They winter in Central America or Mexico and migrate north to their breeding grounds in the U.S. during late winter and early spring. Hummingbirds will typically gain 25-40 percent of their body weight before they start migration in order to make their trip. They generally fly alone, often on the same path they’ve flown earlier in their life. Hummingbirds fly by day when sources of nectar are the most abundant. They also fly low, which allows the birds to see, and stop at, food supplies along the way. Research indicates a hummingbird can travel as much as 23 miles in one day. Not only do hummingbirds move from place to place quickly, but their body parts also move rather fast as well. A hummingbird's heart beats from 225 times per minute when it’s at rest and more than 1,200 times per minute when it is flying. Its wings beat about 70 times per second in regular flight and more than 200 times per second while diving."
