Precisely, Thomas. Man is still trying to build their own Tower of Babel.

Re: The Arc of the Covenant

Thomas and Dondi:

We are all entitled to our beliefs. You are entitled to yours and I, and others, theirs.. You are not going to change us, nor we you. Let's just let God show us the unfolding of His/Her truths in the fullness of time. I am perfectly willing to do that.

Both of you will live longer than I. But I have resevoirs of memory and experience that enlightens me every day when I learn something new and integrate it with the whole of my past, and I am as convinced of my version of reality and what is to come as I'm sure you are of yours.

Why not leave it all alone and not go out of your ways to attack those who, by virtue of their uniqueness, do not see the whole as you both happen to. I believe that is the crux of the matter. And, that seems to be what has transpired on this thread

It's not about spiritual mastery or hidden knowledge or having a good offense be a good defense. It's not at all about games. It's about G-d...your version and mine together. You happen to find them to be incompatible...I do not.

flow....

Re: The Arc of the Covenant

flow - aside from what is (in my opinion) an entirely unwarranted, unsupported and conjectural, not to say barking mad set of assertions about the ark, my point was that the hebrew word for "ark" does not contain a "K", "C" or hard "Q" sound. thus any arguments based on that are without merit - and that's merely a linguistic point.

Re: The Arc of the Covenant

Hello Bananabrain,
You are absolutely correct. I transliterated the final nun in Lev. 16:2 as a final kaf. The word in this verse does not carry the vav, it is merely ahleph, resh, nun. The text I use is very old and as you know the two letters in the final form look very similar in the older texts. Therefore instead of A, R, C we have A, R, N. which mean according to the meaning of each letter: the Ultimate promordial force that radiates life (or a connection to life)
However this transliteration oversight on my part, in no manner changes the content of my original post.
Sorry for any confusion this may have caused.
Love and Light, Midge
