Morality was apply within only a particular tribe’s agreements,
and the rightness of action on its collective mood towards
addressing other groups, it’s individuated and localized to only
particular groupings, and really should have reality within the
attendant cultural paradigms who agree with it. But the Israelites
had a specific worldview, and they imposed that worldview; that
radical new world view was monotheism. The eating off this tree of
knowledge of good and bad has caused a moral conflict and tension
between Yahweh’s good design for creation. The drama of humanity’s
life should revolve not around the search for eternal life, nor
preoccupation with immortality; it was not in Yahweh’s design for
this kind of drama. It’s the power of moral choice alone that is
godlike.
Morality’s about balance and survival, and the methods aren’t as
important as the mannerisms in preserving humanity for eons instead
of centuries, as humanity is walking in the footsteps of so called
ancient civilizations in odious and strange ways. A pop culture
where the modus litany puts valuables before values, character,
ethic, writes a recipe for ruin. The error is as deep as the
nature of man, humanity cannot expect any deliverance from it so
long as the nature of man continues the same, and humanity’s
natural love of truth almost as depraved as humanity’s natural love
of holiness. Humanity has before it the opportunity to become a
conscious cooperator, no longer must we be merely unconscious
players at the mercy of forces and energies beyond our control.
Today we are intelligent enough and conscious enough to see the
patterns and cycles that converge to form human destiny. Today
humanity can take an active part in molding that destiny and not be
simply the unwitting subject of the forces of change. But awaiting
humanity is the Day of Yahweh, a popular idea among the Israelites,
that on some future occasion, Yahweh would dramatically intervene
in world affairs and he would do so on Israel’s behalf. He would
lead Israel in victory over her enemies. They would be punished.
Israel would be restored to her full and former glory.
Remember those covenants,
