Genesis 34 Dinah's Defilement

To see Genesis 34 without my comments click HERE.

When Jacob returned to Canaan land he was surrounded by Canaanites. Jacob bought land in the land of Shechem and built an alter to Father Yahweh. Dinah the daughter of Leah, went to visit the young women of the city which of course is the beginning of troubles because an Israelite woman should not just go out and randomly visit people in a strange city who are non-Israelites without being accompanied by other Israelites. This is only the beginning of troubles in this passage.

A Prince by the name of Shechem saw Dinah and defiled her according to the Bible. The Bible isn't clear about the exact nature of the defilement, by that I mean it isn't clear if she was seduced as Eve was or if she was forced into such an act. After the event, Shechem's father Hamor went to talk to Jacob about the event and offered any amount of money to Jacob if Hamor's son could have Dinah as a bride which of course both the defilement of Dinah and any said marriage to an Israelite by a non-Israelite is illegal, immoral, against the laws of nature, and against the laws of Yahweh.

During this visit, Jacob's sons answered Hamor craftily and told him that if all the males in the city were circumcised then they would agree to his request and the men of land of Shechem would become an extension of the Israelite family. These men of the land knew of the wealth of Jacob and knowing that the Israelite women are the most beautiful in the world and the wealth that they would receive circumcision would be a small price to have both the Israelite women and Israelite wealth.

On the 3^rd day after all the men were circumcised and sore, two of Jacob's sons Simeon and Levy, went to the city of Shechem slew all the men of the city with their swords and removed Dinah from the house of Shechem. Afterword Jacob was disturbed by what Simeon and Levy did because he was surrounded by Canaanites and knew they would seek revenge for this mass killing. His sons told Jacob that they would not stand for their sister to be treated as a harlot by Canaanites.

We should keep in mind that if not for this event it's possible that Dinah's name would not have even been mentioned in the Bible at all. The Israelite family follows the patriarchal line. In other words the man is the head of the family, his children are Israelites, and considered to be Israelites of the tribe that the Father is from, and not the mother. There are some races and cultures such as Jews (those who practice the antichrist religion of Judaism) that follow the matriarchal blood line of the mother and the mother is the head of the family. This is one reason among many that Jews, as we know the term today, are not Israelites. In this particular case of Dinah, it's my personal opinion she was seduced because she continued to stay with the prince after the act and was forcibly removed by her brothers.

A few other thoughts I would like to share is:

In Exodus 22:16 the Bible tells us that marriage is upon consummation of the sex act. There is no place in the Bible that says that we are to get permission from Babylon, be married in a church, and have a wedding ceremony that's conducted by a Baal priest agent of the state. In this case Dinah's marriage with this Canaanite prince was not a legal marriage simply because Israelites are to marry other Israelites. This is the exact same reason that caused 24,000 to be put to death in Numbers 25.

Deuteronomy is the 5^th book of the Bible. The word Deuteronomy means “the second law”, and it is a recap of laws in the books of both Exodus and Leviticus. Deuteronomy 22 talks about the laws concerning chastity. Verses22-25 talk about Adultery in marriage. At the very least the person that lays with damsel is to pay her father 50 shekels of silver which is serious business v.29. The seriousness of this lies in the fact that long ago a man would not want to marry a woman who was not a virgin because of it being against the law of God and because of telegony, a hardship would fall upon the family of the woman. This idea is difficult for most to understand today in a land where it seems that everyone is a harlot or a prostitute. Practically no person in this country practices sexual morality anymore.

I have heard the claim before that if a woman lays with a man she has to marry him. There is no place in Deut 22 nor in the Bible anywhere that tells a woman that she has to marry anyone under any circumstances. 

There is one rouge translation of the Bible that I know of that states that a woman that is raped is to marry the man that rapes her. This is found in the N.I.V. bible (I call it the Non-Inspired-Version).
Deut. 22:29 "...He must marry the young woman, for he has violated her. He can never divorce her as long as he lives". 

My advice to all... stay with the King James version for the sake of keeping the Fathers laws.

The Ebola

Since the beginning of this year the nation of Guinea has reported that almost 400 Africans have been infected with the deadly Ebola Virus. Most will know this virus in its advanced stages causes internal organ failure with both internal and external bleeding.

Very few people know the original source for this virus. For the benefit of those who do not know, it comes from the eating of fruit bats. The eating of any bat is in direct opposition to the Fathers dietary food law Leviticus 11:19. 

The eating of bats is considered a delicacy and is common in nations that are ruled by man and that have no Christian Israelite influence.

I have said many times in this blog that the word Israel literally means to "rule with God” or to “rule under God's law." Anyone that is ruling under God's law should know that the dietary food laws were established by Father Yahweh and were written into the bible for a reason, and in this case the reason is so people will not get the Ebola Virus.

In main stream Christianity it's commonly taught that the Fathers law has been done away with. If this were true, that his laws have been done away with, then it should be impossible to sin because sin is the transgression of the Fathers law 1 John 3:4 This concept does include his dietary food laws which brings health. However, the Fathers dietary food laws have not been done away with and to remain healthy it should be followed. I have covered the concept of the food law in another post.

Another common misconception concerning the Fathers dietary food law is the eating of pork which causes trichinosis. Some people who have trichinosis may not know they have trichinosis and would only be diagnosed from an autopsy. Without getting to graphic one of the symptoms is that the trichinosis worm enters the blood stream and embeds itself into the walls of the heart and weakens it.

The point that I would like others to get from this post is when you follow the laws of God you have health and not plagues. This basic concept is outlined in both Deut 28 and Lev 26. In closing I want all to consider the following

Some how mainstream Christianity believes there is no law of the Father to follow and many ministers teach this to their congregations. People who teach the law has been done away with will have a surprise in the end when they are judged and sentenced to the second death for practicing iniquity (iniquity means lawlessness and I am talking about Father Yahweh's law and not mans law) Matt 7:23. It's my personal observation that the ones that break the Fathers laws the most are the clergy that teach others these unscriptural concepts. Anyone attending a church that teaches such things I offer this advice and that is to leave any such church that teaches blasphemy, Rev 18:4.

Praise the Lord for all of his laws, including the law of not eating bats!

Genesis 33 Jacob and Esau reconciled

To see Genesis 33 without my comments click HERE.

When Esua was approaching Jacob with his party of 400 men on horseback to destroy him, according to the book of Jasher 32:29, Esau had angels appear unto him to intervene to keep him from killing Jacob. As a defensive posture, just in case, Jacob put the children of the handmaids up front and the children of Leah and Rachel in the rear of the formation for the greatest possible protection.

When Jacob saw Esau approaching he bowed to the ground 7 times in an act that is usually reserved for kings as mentioned in the Amarna Tablets. Although it was unclear to Jacob at that moment what the intentions of Esau were as he approached. Esau, when he finally met up with Jacob, had peaceful intentions. Esau wanted Jacob to keep the animals from the droves he passed along the way, but Jacob insisted he keep them in an effort to restore peace with his brother. Esau offered to have some of his men accompany Jacob to Seir. Of course Jacob didn't want the men around him that not very long ago were prepared to kill him. He told Esau that he would see him again when he arrives in Seir which is also known as Edom in the south of Canaan land. Instead Jacob ended up going to Succoth, which is East of the Jordon River and North of the Brook Jabbock.

Although Esau and Jacob were not enemies, Jacob did not go to Edom where Esau lived. The reason for this isn't specifically mentioned in the Bible, however, it's probable that he chose not to dwell with or near Esau because the original source of friction between them still existed, which is Esau marrying wives that were non Israelites Gen 26:34-35. This sin of Adultery is the same sin that is mentioned in Numbers 25:6-11. It's worth mentioning that Jacob's separation from the Edomites was not as dramatic as the problem that the returning Prophets to Jerusalem had (Ezra 9 and 10 and Nehemiah 13) after the Babylonian captivity when they ended up building a wall to physically keep themselves separate from alien hordes that both plundered and destroyed Jerusalem. This separation is a recurring theme through both the bible and through time. As Israel is commanded to be separate from others 2 Cor 6:17. I praise the Lord of Lords for his never changing word and his sacrifice on Calvary, for he truly is our kinsman redeemer!
