Insightful as always! Keep it up, brother.

22:40 In România there is indeed a very common motif in the folk tales (basme, in Romanian): the bride or the wife of the hero (sometimes the daughter of the king..) is kidnapped by a reptilian humanoid figure, called zmeu (which is also the word for kite), who often also has a family, or a kind.
And the young/virgin woman is saved by Făt-Frumos (Son-Handsome, handsome son)

Good work brother

Thank you for this, Kabane. You got me thinking, if kingship is proper to God and priesthood to humanity, aren’t the two crowns symbolic of the two Natures of Christ? Wouldn’t this work perfectly with God appointing Moses as a God to Aaron who would later be sanctified as the high priest of Israel?

@1:01:00 Seraphim refers to parents bringing wicked sons to the gates to be judged in the book of Dueteronomy. In modern times, that would be akin to parents calling the police (elders of the gate (marshalls)) on their sons during domestic disputes especially in the context of addiction (a drunkard and a glutton). Additionally, these domestic disputes have a relatively high likelihood of fatalities.

@33:40 "Why does God have a Son?" "Because He wants to bring His name into the world."

awesome material as usual

35:15 The sons of God, from the divine council, are they the same kind of angelic beings like those mentioned in Genesis 6.2: "the sons of God saw that the daughters of men were beautiful"? Do you think that this is the correct interpretation of Gen 6.2? If that's the case, is there a relation between the Son/sons of God (or divine sonship) and the masculine principle? Because, otherwise, how would angelic beings - supposedly not male or female- be attracted to human women?
Or the preincarnate Son of God does not have a gender, just like God the Father, but this is only a figure of speech, an authoritative way of describing them, and it is actually about Parent and Child?

1Samuel 8 shows us that original ideal was YHWH reigning over Israel. The Messiah HAS TO BE divine, otherwise the messianic kingdom would be imperfect. The Old Testament presents a consistent view of monarchy as something far removed from the ideal planned by God. In Genesis, for instance, the wicked generations are presented as developers of the monarchical system (4:17; 10:10-12; 11:4).

[@leonardobarbieri1292]

@OrthodoxyChloroQuine Human monarchy. I thought that was clear, considering the passages I quoted.

[@leonardobarbieri1292]

@OrthodoxyChloroQuine Yes, but the point is that one person ruling over the others was consider a pagan thing. Just read 1Samuel 8 and Deuteronomy 17. The original idea for Israel was theocracy.
Ancient kings claimed to be the representatives of the gods on earth. Genesis teaches that every human being is the image of God. That's the original theology.

[@leonardobarbieri1292]

@OrthodoxyChloroQuine I'm not anti-monarchy either hahahahah. God allowed a monarchy to take place in Israel. What I pointed out is that monarchy is not the perfect ideal planned by God, that's all.
God bless you. Pray for me, please.

@@leonardobarbieri1292 I agree with you that this passage has relevance to the divine Messiah, but on monarchy:

[@leonardobarbieri1292]

@@imr2540 Read the second part of verse 14 carefully. I almost quoted that passage when I first wrote my commentary, but I thought it could cause confusion if you read the text out of context. Furthermore, 1Samuel 8 leaves no doubt about this question; a human king over Israel was not the perfect ideal planned by God.
John Walton has a very very brief commentary on Deuteronomy 17 and 1Samuel 8 in his book "Ancient Near Eastern Thought and the Old Testament".
