Tragacanth and Myrrh →. October 9, 2012 · 1:08 am. The prospect of travelling all the way back * to Canaan to fetch Benjamin*. Then travelling all the way back to Egypt with him, made Joseph’s brothers wonder what they’d done to deserve this hardship. Speaking in his native Canaanite so Joseph wouldn’t understand, Simeon said to his brothers, No doubt we deserve to be punished because of * what we did to Joseph*. If you had only listened to me, we would have been spared much suffering. Er….it&#...I, as t...

February 21, 2013 · 8:12 am. You’ll remember from * last time. That while the sons of Jacob were loading their donkeys for their return journey to Canaan from Egypt, Joseph had got his steward to put his prized silver goblet into Benjamin’s sack without him knowing. I’m disappointed in you, Benjy. We’re all disappointed in you, in fact, said Judah. Wherever did you get the idea that stealing is kosher? Joseph’s steward, who had been attending to his camel while the brothers were talking, came up to...

randommarainthoughts: Rethinking how things work here...
http://randommarainthoughts.blogspot.com/2012/08/recently-i-was-introduced-to-work-of.html
Monday, August 6, 2012. Rethinking how things work here. Recently, I was introduced to the work of Robert A. Monroe and his home-study program called Gateway Experience. Dedicated to developing, exploring and applying expanded states of awareness". The Gateway Experience. But I do find each session deeply relaxing and I think it is helping me to manage my stress better, so I will probably go through most of the tracks again and again in the months ahead, and maybe one day I will be surprised. As I could ...

randommarainthoughts: awkwardness...
http://randommarainthoughts.blogspot.com/2012/06/awkwardness.html
Sunday, June 3, 2012. I really don't know what possessed me. I have always tried to follow my heart in my life, but sometimes it leads me in strange ways. The awkwardness no doubt came out of the age differences. If you hadnt spoken to the young man about his country nor e-mailed him the link to the Kucinich interview, you would be regretting it, for you were following your heart. But, now hes President, hes acting much like his. I hope all is well with you. June 4, 2012 at 9:12 AM. Heres to hoping. ...

randommarainthoughts: The realization of randomness...
http://randommarainthoughts.blogspot.com/2012/07/realization-of-randomness.html
Sunday, July 15, 2012. The realization of randomness. There may or may not be lessons for an individual who is suffering because of some random event, and as observers of their suffering, the only lessons that matter are the ones that exist for us - whether or not we take advantage of the opportunity to exercise compassion and try to help them. If I would start a church, which is a fantasy I sometimes have, one of the central teachings would be the importance of the realization of randomness. I feel simi...

A belated appreciation of William Empson from the haply mute. I ought to have read William Empson’s. Seven Types of Ambiguity. Years ago. Promotional blurbs don’t lie. This book has, indeed, been “a landmark in the history of literary criticism” since 1930, but I just picked it up this year. I like ambiguity and I agree with (and find charming) Mr. Empson’s opening assertion that ambiguity is a kind of deceit. I want to know a butcher paints,. A baker rhymes for his pursuit,. Maybe this whole enterprise ...

A Pit of Poisonous Snakes →. October 12, 2012 · 5:22 am. The last posting ended with Jacob * refusing to let Benjamin*. Travel back to Egypt with his older brothers, so that Simeon, who had stayed behind in Egypt as a hostage, might be released. Hence the brothers remained for the time being in Canaan. Jacob therefore said to his sons, I want you boys to go back to Egypt and get more corn and grain. One of the brothers, Judah, said, We’ll go, but only if Benjamin comes with us. His being so inquisitive a...

A Pit of Poisonous Snakes. Deaf Ears →. November 19, 2012 · 12:30 am. With his brothers – who had come to Egypt from Canaan to buy food – Joseph snuck away to find his steward who was lurking behind the de facto. Prime ministerial tent. Joseph said to the steward, I’d like for you to fill these men’s packs with lots of food. Also, the silver they each brought with them, put it back in their packs, and put my silver goblet into Benjamin’s pack. You’re sure about the silver goblet? Well, another time perha...

With her before he left. 8220;Bring me a honeycomb too,” said the man. 8220;Yes, a honeycomb, what bees make.”. 8220;It’ll be difficult to find a honeycomb on such short notice. They’re not easy to find.”. 8220;Go look in your inner room. You’ll find a honeycomb there.”. Asenath went to the inner room and did see a honeycomb which she brought out and gave to the man. 8220;How do you like it? 8220;Don̵...
