I think the Bible reveals messages to every generation about the sins that existed in our past are still present in today’s societies. By understanding the Bible, we will come to find out that these types of people/problems still exist in our present lives. Personally, working for some corporations in today’s society is somewhat only a little better than being a slave to Pharos, we all want a freedom that benefits all human beings:).

Shalom Aleichem Rav Friedman. I'm loving how you explain things I find difficult to understand in the Torah. I'm watching from Sarawak, Malaysia. Came to Torah about 5 years now and I find it fascinating. The Torah is indeed going forth from Zion to the uttermost parts of the earth.

[@KTChamberlain]

In Bronze Age Egypt, the worst curse you could ever visit on someone was to never say their name again. To them a name had power, a name told a person's story and whenever you say their name, their remembered in their conception of the afterlife. To never say their name again was to deny them an afterlife. In The Ten Commandments (1956) we see Seti enact this on Moses. While this is an artistic liberty on DeMille's part, it is a good reminder that even after 3,000 years, Moses' name still lives on while the majority of Pharaohs' names have more or less faded into history in spite of all the wealth and power they commanded in life. God is not haunted by the vastness of eternity, God is eternity.

[@splashenful]

That's probably why archeologists cannot find any evidence of the ancient Hebrews in Egypt. Because the ancient Egyptians probably erased the peoples from their hieroglyphics, etc.

I love how you explain everything Important question: If everyone is from the line of Noah, why the Torah or bible does not explain what line of descendants is Pharoah from?

[@JozieMaXine]

It does. Ancient Egyptians were descendant from Mizraim, who was the son of Ham. I think you can find this in Genesis 10.

[@gcnewd]

@@JozieMaXine thanks. I never noticed. I will look it up again.

[@JozieMaXine]

@@gcnewd It's an honest mistake, the genealogies are hard to follow. Google can be used as a study tool if you're not sure too.

[@gcnewd]

I found the reference. I do not believe it to mean the Egyptian: 13 Egypt was the father of the Ludites, Anamites, Lehabites, Naphtuhites, 14 Pathrusites, Kasluhites (from whom the Philistines(AH) came) and Caphtorites.(AI)

[@mnomadvfx]

I'm neither Jewish or Christian and even I know that the separate sons of Noah gave rise to separate tribes of men (in the Torah/OT that is). One son specifically gave rise to the semitic peoples, one to Asians etc etc. Of course such talk is pseudo explanatory fiddle faddle exactly of the kind that religion uses to simply vastly more complex issues of ethnic diversity. Just as the ancient pagans assumed forces of nature to derive from separate gods before monotheistic religions simplified this further into just saying one deity was responsible for all - then ironically science goes backwards and makes it more complex again. Monotheistic religion is basically peak simplification of the natural world - this is why monotheistic religions spread so easily, less things to learn so it is easier to indoctrinate people of all ages with their dogma.

1. Who/What is “God”? The Earth is a small “dot” within the Milky Way Galaxy which is only 1 of many Galaxies. 2. When you speak of “Egypt” are you speaking of Ancient Black Khemet (Africa). 3. When you speak of “Pharaoh”, who are you referring to? Are you were referring to the European Army that raided Khemet (Egypt) and robbed it, killed the black Africans and forced them to appoint him as Pharaoh. There’s so much information available today, that I’m trying to cross reference what the various groups are teaching from their perspectives.

Remember everyone, the lord never laid a finger upon any of the people in Egypt. It was their gods that he attacked, and that is what caused the plagues.

[@mnomadvfx]

What gods? If YHWH was always the only true god then what was there to attack in the first place but the ignorance of the Egyptians? This is where logic fells religious dogma so often. Basic reasoning reveals that dogma has large logical gaps because it assumes you just switch off your brain and repeat it verbatim to the next fool in line for their own indoctrination without ever taking the time to analyse what is basically the literary works of several men copied, edited, recopied and edited and copied countless times - and that's after it was passed verbally for multiple generations in all likelihood dramatically polluting it's baseline purity and accuracy. Biblical literature are propaganda tools written by priests to control the weak minded and the poor into doing all of their work for them with a smile on their faces without rebelling. This was true with the Torah and the beginnings of Israel, and it was true of the edited OT and NT for the Christian bible which allowed a waning military power of the Roman empire to retain a significant influence on the populace of the empire.

I have question. That in Jewish books Jews are the children of Cain and Cains father is the Serpentine that seduced Eve. Or is there-another branch of Judaism?

[@sylviareed80]

I'm afraid you have misunderstood somethings along the way, perhaps. The serpent is a metaphor representing some ideas around harnessing energy with body and soul. The Torah is full of metaphors. Maybe the Rabbi or someone with more knowledge than me ( that's a lot of people) will also weigh in on this.

[@orafrid3505]

You can say everyone is the son or daughter of Kayin (Cain) but in the end the Father and Mother of the Jewish people starts with Avraham and Sara (Abraham and Sarah) they chose to follow G-D, they chose in a world of corruption and idolatry, to seek out the One True Creator and follow in His ways. From them came Yitzchak (Isaac) who married Rivka (Rebecca) and the line follows down to Ya'akov ( Jacob) from there come the 12 Tribes who later accepted, in an official way, the Torah. The Torah is the blueprint of the World, it's not just a collection of stories, history or laws. The point in the end is that someone can come from evil (Avraham came from Terach -who worshiped and sold idols) yet we can choose life of Holiness

Yes, they were called the children of Israel or Hebrews at that time, not Jews. That term did not become prevalent until around the time of Esther.
