On Considering the Bible

Man has seen law as bipartite for a very long time. Part of law refers to ones obligations to society. Another part of law refers to human observation of the repeating processes in nature. Looking at examples from history, it seems science may have developed more readily from polytheistic religion and that may be due to similarities between fate and natural law.

Proverb is a useful key for success in life. Proverb is a repository for wisdom. Wisdom and knowledge are not the same. Wisdom contains more potential for being able to deal appropriately with that which may happen. Knowledge seems more applicable to the particular and the actual.

Nineveh is a name for Assyria of visa versa.

Wisdom is dealt with in Ecclesiastes. It seems to be dealt with energetically. Koheleth, the editor, seems a vigorous realist. He seems to appreciate and open mind. As many wise me do, ha has collected Proverbs. ("Never a borrower or lender be.") He seems to see foggy thinking as a major sin. Like most wise men, he values detachment without withdrawal. He seems to believe that our ability to detect the cyclical rhythm in nature is to be understood and used for our benefit. Koheleth seems to use a concept related to mystery, obscurity, eternity as a path beyond linear thought. He seems a man who believes: "That which is worth doing is worth doing well." "Better is the sight of the eyes than the wandering of the desires." "Its best to by joyful." "Rejoice and play all over the earth." "Love of wisdom is creative."

At what point can we no linger tell the dancer form the dance?

Air, light, spirit see to refer to energy, perhaps a knowing energy. The invisible is the source of the visible and somehow an opportunity for human energy.
