Bible Study, Part 11

Creation of Light ( אוֹר ) By Gustave Doré Genesis, Chapter 11 | Sunday – September 6, 2026 S eptember is here, which means that the fall is just around the corner, and I must say that from my position in the world, the fall came early this year, which may or may not be a shame, depending of course on your perspective. I have had some personal issues this summer, read " Medical Emergency Updates ", and as a result I am having some difficulties still, read as well " Personal Disintegration ". I am a strong person and there is no reason to worry for me, but even I face major difficulties sometimes, and at the present moment I am facing a "perfect storm" in many ways, really a confluence of adverse factors outside my own control. None of this means that I will be unable to continue this "Bible Study series", but it does mean that I may have to slow down. If indeed I am forced to slow down this series, I will announce this on my "INFO page"...

Bible Study, Part 10

Creation of Light ( אוֹר ) By Gustave Doré Genesis, Chapter 10 | Sunday – August 30, 2026 B iblical accounts tend to be contested, contested among historians, biblical scholars, and outside forces attempting to "disprove", often by negation, the Bible. Thus far, we are only in the Old Testament, the Tanakh ( תָּנָ״ךְ ), and for obvious reasons this part of the Bible tends to be closed off, walled off really, to open discourse and debate, which is why the Book of Genesis tends to be speared from the painful convulsions of being brought down to the material level, the level of the masses, the human level, although this has been attempted and is still attempted, though less successfully than the myriad of cracks that have been  eschewed  by negation on the New Testament by false witnesses. Now, some will refer to this false witness hood, this anti-witness hood, as "critical" and "prudent" thinking. Well, I will refer to this as anti-thinking from now on, beca...

Bible Study, Part 9

Image
Creation of Light ( אוֹר ) By Gustave Doré Genesis, Chapter 9 | Sunday – August 23, 2026 N ames and lineage are important, read " Hierarchy ", and they are certainly important in the Bible and in the story of Genesis, for they provide both an account and a connection; they help us understand our place in the world, and they bind us to this place, to each of our stations. Even if we consider ourselves completely autonomous and liberated from the story, from our story, this would still never be enough to escape, to escape the circumstance of each of our creation. It may be fancy to proclaim how each of us just "happened" to be born into our bodies and into our lives, but the fact is, read " Never Trust Your Body! ", that each of us are here only because of us; you can not be someone else, nor could you have been someone else. It is not simply a matter of chance that you ended up being the person that you are. Be it millions or billions of years, read " ...

Bible Study, Part 8

Creation of Light ( אוֹר ) By Gustave Doré Genesis, Chapter 8 | Sunday – August 16, 2026 I am still in Türkiye while writing parts of this post, and if you are more interested in my journey in Türkiye, click this link . Because I am still stuck at my hotel awaiting my transfer to the airport and because I am bored, I have reached the conclusion that I may as well start writing this post. Now, this will be my 8th part of this series , which means that there are 7 previous parts that you should be reading before you read this part. I will list them and link to them in chronological order: part 1 , part 2 , part 3 , part 4 , part 5 , part 6 , and part 7 . If you decide to not read the previous parts of this series, then you should know that you run the risk of some confusion, as each part in this series constitutes a link in a great chain, a great Biblical chain, and without having read each part you are missing out and you may end up becoming confused and even lead astray by your own c...
