The Images Tell The Story: The Birth of the Nation of Israel

Dura-Europos Moses and Aaron Leading Israel Out of Egypt




Exodus 1:1 Now these are the names of the children of Israel, which came into Egypt; every man and his household came with Jacob.
            1:2 Reuben, Simeon, Levi, and Judah,
            1:3 Issachar, Zebulun, and Benjamin,
            1:4 Dan, and Naphtali, Gad, and Asher.
            1:5 And all the souls that came out of the loins of Jacob were seventy souls: for Joseph was in Egypt already.
            1:6 And Joseph died, and all his brethren, and all that generation.
            1:7 And the children of Israel were fruitful, and increased abundantly, and multiplied, and waxed exceeding mighty; and the land was filled with them.

Exodus 12:40 Now the sojourning of the children of Israel, who dwelt in Egypt, was four hundred and thirty years.
            12:41 And it came to pass at the end of the four hundred and thirty years, even the selfsame day it came to pass, that all the hosts of the LORD went out from the land of Egypt.

The ‘hosts of the LORD’ in this passage, refers to the military and army of Israel.
              
            12:42 It is a night to be much observed unto the LORD for bringing them out from the land of Egypt: this is that night of the LORD to be observed of all the children of Israel in their generations.

Exodus 14:8 and the children of Israel went out with an high hand.

The meaning of a ‘high hand’ is the use of power or authority more forcefully than is needed, without thinking about the feelings or wishes of other people; not showing any interest in the rights, opinions, or feelings of other people.

Exodus 20:1 And God spake all these words, saying,
            20:2 I am the LORD thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
            20:3 Thou shalt have no other gods before me.

The Image to the Far Left is a Fresco of Moses Aaron and the Exodus, from the Dura-Europos synagogue. The 2nd and 3rd century Dura-Europos synagogue is better preserved than other, older synagogues that have emerged from archaeological digs. It is often called the world's oldest preserved Jewish synagogue. Dura-Europos is a building of Jewish worship in the City Hellenistic and Roman of Dura-Europos in the province of Syria. This is one of the most important monuments in the study of Jewish art in the ancient world. Succeeding the first building of the second half of the second century, the synagogue was rebuilt about 244-245 A.D. and has a set of murals figurative single to date. It was preserved when it was filled with earth to strengthen the city's fortifications against a Sassanian assault in 256. This act resulted in the preservation of much of the painted decoration. The destruction of the city at the end of the siege that followed and the deportation of the population by the Persians put an end to the occupation of the site, which explains its remarkable state of preservation until the first archaeological excavations. The Persians intervened in the French mandate in Syria between 1921 and 1933 and saw the complete release of the remains of the synagogue.  

The site was also excavated in 1935 by Clark Hopkins, who found that it contains a forecourt and house of assembly with frescoed walls depicting people and animals, and a Torah shrine in the western wall facing Jerusalem. Dura-Europos also boasts the oldest known Christian church. The synagogue's painted walls and roof of baked-brick tiles were transported across the desert 300 miles away to Damascus, where it became the centerpiece of the National Museum built in 1934. The frescoes were deposited at the National Museum in Damascus that they are one of the masterpieces of the collection. It was dismantled and re-constructed at Yale University in the early 1930s, so there isn't much to see at Dura-Europos but basic foundations.
In this synagogue there are also images which testify to the syncretism, or heretical belief systems that Israelites have been immersed in, such as the cult of Mithra.

The Dura-Europos image of Moses and Aaron leading the children of Israel out of Egypt will always stand out as both a testament of what the Jews looked like in the 1st Century, and what their descendents look like now. It also stands as a reminder of YAHAWAH's providence over his children and a portent for the future delivery of Israel out of the captivities, their exile, and their Diaspora which they now find themselves in, scattered across the face of the earth.

Apocrypha II Esdras 2:1 Thus saith the Lord, I brought this people out of bondage, and I gave them my commandments by my servants the prophets; whom they would not hear, but despised my counsels.

Apocrypha II Esdras 2:7 Let them be scattered abroad among the heathen, let their names be put out of the earth : for they have despised my covenant.

And so, the nation of Israel remains so to this day, but millennia ago Israel the Father of Joseph, the Father, of Ephraim, and Manasseh, was given a future vision of his children’s and his descendant’s sojourn and departure from Egypt.

Genesis. 48:21 And Israel said unto Joseph Behold, I die: but the LORD shall be with you, and bring you again unto the land of your fathers.

Here Jacob prophesied that the children of Israel would be delivered out of Egypt and brought to the land of our Fathers. The land of Israel’s fathers is the land of Canaan, the land of Israel.

The Land of Israel Throughout History


Though in time it would come to be understood that the whole earth was made for Israel’s, as the nation chosen by the LORD to govern, and preside over the earth.

Apocrypha II Esdras 6:59 If the world now be made for our sakes, why do we not possess an inheritance with the world? How long shall this endure?

This question was asked of the LORD by Ezra a scribe and priest, who headed a migration of Israelites from Babylon to the Israelite capital Jerusalem around 70 years after the destruction of the Israelite Kingdom and State of Judah. The Kingdom of Judah became a Babylonian Province called Yehud Medinata or Judah Province.

The Dura-Europos image of Moses, Aaron, and Israel in the header speaks of the period of around 1400-900B.C. The other nations populated and spread out upon the earth, and established kingdoms, some fledging kingdoms, but this period began Israel’s history as a national polity on the earth. Israel was the last nation to enter the world stage, and this nation was destined to forever have an impact on the world. They are the Holy people of the LORD, the nation of the Messiah, the nation of priest-kings of the LORD who created heaven, and earth.  In secular history before Israel left Egypt they ruled Lower Egypt for a time, and were called the Hyksos, the Sheperd Kings of Egypt. This era saw their rise as rulers of Egypt, their expansion in trade under the Egyptian’s economic, social, political system. This was followed by their overthrow, disenfranchisement, and enslavement. This most pivotal moment in Israel’s history, this era saw their deliverance by the hand of Most High YAHAWAH, the creator of heaven and earth. Their deliverance and the type and spiritual scope of the deliverance they received would stand as a sign to the world, the type nation they were to be.

Tabernacle of the Congregation

The LORD though Moses as his vicar, or earthly representative led the families of Israel out of captivity, out of Egypt as a nation, a cohesive social, political, economic and spiritual polity. Their deliverance was followed by a meeting with YAHAWAH, the creator of Heaven and Earth, and power of all creation, and the reception of his laws of Heaven on Earth, and an agreement to be their tutelary, and their All. This meeting and agreement is known as the First Covenant. The Civil, Ceremonial, Dietary, and Moral laws of Heaven on Earth, were to be, and are a defining signet upon the history of mankind, as no other nation, received such treatment, wherein the LORD YAHAWAH openly revealed himself, and spoke to an entire nation.

Exodus 20:18 And all the people saw the thunderings, and the lightnings, and the noise of the trumpet, and the mountain smoking: and when the people saw it, they removed, and stood afar off.
            20:19 And they said unto Moses, Speak thou with us, and we will hear: but let not God speak with us, lest we die.
            20:20 And Moses said unto the people, Fear not: for God is come to prove you, and that his fear may be before your faces, that ye sin not.
            20:21 And the people stood afar off, and Moses drew near unto the thick darkness where God was.
            20:22 And the LORD said unto Moses, Thus thou shalt say unto the children of Israel, Ye have seen that I have talked with you from heaven.
            20:23 Ye shall not make with me gods of silver, neither shall ye make unto you gods of gold.

Psalm 147:19 He sheweth his word unto Jacob, his statutes and his judgments unto Israel.
          147:20 He hath not dealt so with any nation: and as for his judgments, they have not known them. Praise ye the LORD

Israel’s settlement in the Land of Canaan, their expansion as one of the group of the Sea People, was one of the causing events of the Bronze Age’s trade infrastructure collapse, and caused permanent changes to the Levantine’s, and the Mediterranean’s economic-social-political landscape, changing the world. Reconstructing this living age is difficult due to different factors. The Humanism of the 17th century up until the present has sought to reconstruct this age based on the new sciences of the times which has lead to a conflict of chronology, and improper identification of peoples, and nations, all while trying to fit the past with the present framework of pseudo-scientific race theories, eschewed and antiquated as they are. Fortunately the Neo-Roman Dutch-Anglo-American-Anti-Biblical centric view that has dominated world academia during the 19th century up until the present day, has also had a counter academic community, which is interested in telling the story of a multi-ethnic international world, in which all people, and nations have played a part in history. This is in accordance with world history through the view of the Bible.

During the reception of the covenant, the LORD, admonished Israel against falling away from the way of heaven on earth.

Dueteronomy. 4:26 I call heaven and earth to witness against you this day, that ye shall soon utterly perish from off the land whereunto ye go over to possess it; ye shall not prolong your days upon it, but shall be utterly destroyed.

This destruction wasn’t total, and neither was it permanent, but it was a forced removal, and migration, that was to take place many times, across the face of the earth. Moses prophesied that the kingdom and society of Israel which was yet to be established was to be destroyed after it was established.

Dueteronomy. 4:27 And the LORD shall shatter you among the nations, and ye shall be left few in number among the heathen, whither the LORD shall lead you.

The Book of Deuteronomy consists of a series of farewell messages by Israel’s 120 year old leader, Chief Magistrate and King.

Deuteronomy. 34:7 And Moses was an hundred and twenty years old when he died: his eye was not dim, nor his natural force bated.

As a foreshadowing of the spiritual reality, and power which Israel was to exist in, as Moses aged, his body didn’t undergo the physical deterioration that a physical body suffers through as we age. He physically remained a young man by the time he died. Moses’ farewell messages were addressed to that new generation of Israelites that were to possess the Land of Promise, those who survived the forty years of wilderness. But as we also know now, the Bible is unlike any other book, and though it is made up of the three dimensional matter of physical reality, it’s substance is spiritual, so it's existence is multi-dimensional which is why the past, present, and future happen all at the same time in the eyes of the scriptures, which is the word of the LORD. The Bible is a tesseract, a construct that exists beyond the three dimensions we can perceive. So Moses’ address is also meant for us, especially in these last days, which is comparable to the days when Israel was delivered from the enslavement of the Egyptians, as we shall be delivered from this ‘Edomi Galut’, this exile, and Kingdom/Government of Edom, and the Kingdoms/Government of the Nations. Let it be known that social, political, and economic disenfranchisement is slavery.

Like Leviticus, Deuteronomy contains a vast amount of legal detail, but its emphasis is on the laymen rather than the priests. Moses reminds the new generation of the importance of obedience if they are to learn from the sad example of their parents. The previous generation could not overcome the spirit of humanism, natural law, and materialism that spiritually governed Egypt. They could not overcome the spirit of Astro-theology, they could overcome the base desires of man, which the cultures of the nations worship, and thereby make, and create for themselves addictive personalities, and appetites. The parting words of Moses are given in oral and written form so they will endure to all generations. Deuteronomy is called in Yiddish 'Mishneh Hattorah', “Repetition of the Law”, which is translated in the Septuagint, in Koine Greek, as 'To Deuteronomion Touto', “This Second Law.” Deuteronomy, however, is not a second law but an adaptation and expansion of much of the original law given on Mount Sinai, or Mount Horeb. The English title comes from the Greek title Deuteronomion, “Second Law.” Deuteronomy has been appropriately called the “Book of Rememberance.”

Ecclesiastes. 1:11 There is no remembrance of former things; neither shall there be any remembrance of things that are to come with those that shall come after.

When we are born we don’t remember the past, and have to become acquainted with the world. It is no easy chore to reconstruct past events, to remember what happened, seeing as that men are forgetful.
Deuteronomy the 28th Chapter details the past, present, and future events that would occur to the nation of Israel. These events were to be a sign in their times to point out who they were yesterday, and who they are today, because the LORD would cause their memory to cease from among men.

Deuteronomy 32:26 I said , I would scatter them into corners, I would make the remembrance of them to cease from among men.

What the world remembers of Israel is just a pittance of what they were and who they are, but the word and 
spirit of the LORD, through his son, Yahawashi causes us to remember in part.

Deuteronomy 28:32 Thy sons and thy daughters shall be given unto another people, and thine eyes shall look, and fail with longing for them all the daylong: and there shall be no might in thine hand.

Thy Sons and Daughters Shall Be Given Away

Deuteronomy 28:45 Moreover all these curses shall come upon thee, and shall pursue thee, and overtake thee, till thou be destroyed; because thou hearkenedst not unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to keep his commandments and his statutes which he commanded thee:
                     28:46 And they shall be upon thee for a sign and for a wonder, and upon thy seed for ever.

The conditions of the curses are a sign of who the descendants of Israel are, since there would be few other ways of knowing who they were, considering one of the curses would be a lack of remembrance of them among men, as punishment for forgetting the LORD. By contemplating, and wondering, from reading the scriptures and comparing the conditions created by the curses you can see who the descendants of Israel are. ‘Upon thy seed forever’ meaning you will always be able to use the scriptures to understand who they are by the conditions they live in, and by the signifying events in their lives, up until the present time, and until the time of the gentiles is fulfilled. Which some people erroneously call the end of the world, when it is only the end of the current establishments, and governments of the world.

The Enslavement of the Indios

Deuteronomy 28:49 The LORD shall bring a nation against thee from far, from the end of the earth, as swift as the eagle flieth; a nation whose tongue thou shalt not understand;

The Modern Western Governments are Children of the Roman Empire

From the 16th century up until the present, the Spanish, French, English, Dutch, British, Canada, United States, all had wars with the ‘so-called’ Native Americans, who are descendants of Israel. The Western world is a social, economical, political and biological lineal descendant of the Roman Empire, the use of the Eagle is as a result of this. In Rabbinical records Rome is Edom. Rome was a multicultural far-flung Empire larger than the Empires which preceded it. Though no Empire, region, or country can claim to have been populated by one ethnic type, nevertheless the main ruling ethnic people of Rome were descendants of Edom, though the conquered Grecian Macedonians were also Idumeans, or Edomites. The same is true today amongst the western countries of the world. Rome was Edom, yet not all descendants of Edom were Romans. The descendants of all the Biblical nations of the world are dispersed from their original millennia old homelands. Few people understand the nature of the Biblical ethnicities, which are not similar to the modern world’s ethnicities, yet the roots of all people are found in the Bible.

Deuteronomy 28:50 A nation of fierce countenance, which shall not regard the person of the old, nor shew favour to the young:

No Favor Shown to the Old or Young


28:64 And the LORD shall scatter thee among all people, from the one end of the earth even unto the other; and there thou shalt serve other gods, which neither thou nor thy fathers have known, even wood and stone.

The Gods of Israel's Worship


Deuteronomy 28:65 And among these nations shalt thou find no ease, neither shall the sole of thy foot have rest: but the LORD shall give thee there a trembling heart, and failing of eyes, and sorrow of mind:
                      28:66 And thy life shall hang in doubt before thee; and thou shalt fear day and night, and shalt have none assurance of thy life:

                                                                     
The Lord Shall Bring You Into Egypt Again With Ships



Deuteronomy 28:68 And the LORD shall bring thee into Egypt again with ships, by the way whereof I spake unto thee, Thou shalt see it no more again: and there ye shall be sold unto your enemies for bondmen and bondwomen, and no man shall buy you.

Deuteronomy 31:24 And it came to pass, when Moses had made an end of writing the words of this law in a book, until they were finished,
                     31:25 That Moses commanded the Levites, which bare the ark of the covenant of the LORD, saying,
                     31:26 Take this book of the law, and put it in the side of the ark of the covenant of the LORD your God, that it may be there for a witness against thee.
                     31:27 For I know thy rebellion, and thy stiff neck: behold, while I am yet alive
with you this day, ye have been rebellious against the LORD; and how much more after my death?
                     31:28 Gather unto me all the elders of your tribes, and your officers, that I may speak these words in their ears, and call heaven and earth to record against them.

Dura-Europos: Moses, the Well, and the Nobles of Israel

The Elders and officers are the members of the aristocratic families of the twelve tribes of Israel, whose descendants walk the earth to this present day.  The nation of Israel is made up of twelve tribes. A tribe is an extended family which extends back paternally to one ancestor. A nation is a group of tribes. I speak this of the former meaning of the word nation. The modern form of the word nation is based on the term sovereign-nation state, and is a different meaning and use of the word nation. Yet the past is not swept away by the present, though man forgets, in time we shall see that the present is subjugated to the past, and the future is subjugated to the present.

Deuteronomy 31:29 For I know that after my death ye will utterly corrupt yourselves, and turn aside from the way which I have commanded you; and evil will befall you in the latter days; because ye will do evil in the sight of the LORD, to provoke him to anger through the work of your hands.
                      31:30 And Moses spake in the ears of all the congregation of Israel the words of this song, until they were ended.

Deuteronomy 32:1 Give ear, O ye heavens, and I will speak; and hear, O earth, the words of my mouth.
                     32:2 My doctrine shall drop as the rain, my speech shall distil as the dew, as the small rain upon the tender herb, and as the showers upon the grass:
                     32:3 Because I will publish the name of the LORD: ascribe ye greatness unto our God.

The name of the LORD Most High is YAHAWAH. Which means He Is. YAHAWAH Ba Hasham Yahawashi means Father in the name of Your Son.

Exodus 3:13 And Moses said unto God, Behold, when I come unto the children of Israel, and shall say unto them, The God of your fathers hath sent me unto you; and they shall say to me, What is his name? what shall I say unto them?
              3:14 And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, AM hath sent me unto you.
              3:15 And God said moreover unto Moses, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, The LORD God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, hath sent me unto you: this is my name for ever, and this is my memorial unto all generations.

Deuteronomy 32:4 He is the Rock, his work is perfect: for all his ways are judgment: a God of truth and without iniquity, just and right is he.

The way of the LORD, manifested through the expression of the Laws of Moses, and the commandments of Christ, is the foundation of all things, and life in the physical world. All the ways of the LORD are circumspect, perfectly balanced, equitable, taking all things into account.

Apocrypha II Esdras 5:42 And he said unto me, I will liken my judgment unto a ring: like as there is no slackness of the last, even so there is no swiftness of the first.

Deuteronomy 32:5 They have corrupted themselves, their spot is not the spot of his children: they are a perverse and crooked generation.

If you sought out Israel today you would find them among the nations, in all countries following the cultures, and counter-cultures of the nations in which they dwell. Their spirit is not the spirit of Israel, but a foreign spirit, an evil spirit is in them.

The Cultures of the World Are Tantric and Astrotheological

Deuteronomy 32:6 Do ye thus requite the LORD, O foolish people and unwise? is not he thy father that hath bought thee? hath he not made thee, and established thee?

So the LORD asks “I’ve been a righteous Father towards you, I created you, and gave you the world, and rulership, is that how you pay me back?!”

Deuteronomy 32:7 Remember the days of old, consider the years of many generations: ask thy father, and he will shew thee; thy elders, and they will tell thee.
                      32:8 When the most High divided to the nations their inheritance, when he separated the sons of Adam, he set the bounds of the people according to the number of the children of Israel.

All people and nations of the earth have an inheritance in the earth, a land that is theirs. The LORD gave all nations something of their own, and all nations have an aristocracy. All of this has been lost, and possessed by others during the tumults of history.  
                            
Deuteronomy 32:9 For the LORD’S portion is his people; Jacob is the lot of his inheritance.

Israel is the LORD’s portion, the LORD’s particular property, selection, and his share of the earth. This portion has been inherited, and now belongs to his son Yahawashi Hamashiyach, through the Second Covenant. Which is why we say "YAHAWAH Ba Hasham Yahawashi" which means Father in the name of Your Son.

John 16:15 All things that the Father hath are mine: therefore said I, that he shall take of mine, and shall shew it unto you.

Deuteronomy 32:9 For the LORD’S portion is his people; Jacob is the lot of his inheritance.
                      32:10 He found him in a desert land, and in the waste howling wilderness; he led him about, he instructed him, he kept him as the apple of his eye.
                      32:11 As an eagle stirreth up her nest, fluttereth over her young, spreadeth abroad her wings, taketh them, beareth them on her wings:
                      32:12 So the LORD alone did lead him, and there was no strange god with him.

Astrotheology and it’s diverse forms of celestial worship are not the worship of the LORD. Gnosticism and it’s variations of arch-dualism, or emanations, or the ‘One’, the ‘Good’, or Demiurge are not the true worship of YAHAWAH.

Deuteronomy 32:13 He made him ride on the high places of the earth, that he might eat the increase of the fields; and he made him to suck honey out of the rock, and oil out of the flinty rock;
                      32:14 Butter of kine, and milk of sheep, with fat of lambs, and rams of the breed of Bashan, and goats, with the fat of kidneys of wheat; and thou didst drink the pure blood of the grape.
                      32:15 But Jeshurun waxed fat, and kicked: thou art waxen fat, thou art grown thick, thou art covered with fatness; then he forsook God which made him, and lightly esteemed the Rock of his salvation.

You must remember Israel was a maritime Empire. Jeshurun is a city of Ephraim, it’s symbolic of the city-states of Israel, like Tyre, and Zidon. The Lord compares them to an unruly animal that tries to kick its master. Jeshurun waxed fat, and kicked is slang for ‘Israel you became a bunch of fat cats, and forgot who made you rich’. After Israel became extremely wealthy, they forsook justice, and the equitability of the Laws, and ritual ceremonial worship of the LORD. The Law is life, and the ritual lifestyle is life, a way a life which kept them in balance with the LORD, and each other. The LORD warned them that without having the right view of things, they would fall into disorder.  The aristocratic landowning class of Israel developed the arrogance that is associated with extreme wealth. It the mindset that a man’s wealth will protect him from any adversity, therefore he can do anything he wants. They developed an everyman for him-self view of life. They developed that view of life common to men, who follow their baser drives, chasing appetite for the sake of chasing appetites, doing only that which one finds pleasurable, this is existentially subversive, because appetite is escalatory, and requires more, and more to satisfy it. They forgot it was the LORD that made them wealthy.

Deuteronomy 32:16 They provoked him to jealousy with strange gods, with abominations provoked they him to anger.

As all men do, once calamities begin to fall upon them, they seek out God for answers to their problems.  But these answers are irrational because they seek out reasons that do not convict them of their wrong doing, and place blame elsewhere as all irrational men do. So they don’t seek out the LORD for the cause of their troubles they seek out other Gods, that are like themselves, to justify their actions.

The Left Hand Side Has Many Expressed Forms


Deuteronomy 32:17 They sacrificed unto devils, not to God; to gods whom they knew not, to new gods that came newly up, whom your fathers feared not.
                      32:18 Of the Rock that begat thee thou art unmindful, and hast forgotten God that formed thee.

As Israelites travelled, created colonies, or proto-corporations, and experienced the cultures of the world, and the people they lived around, they did as any maritime people do, they intermarry with the foreign people, and their foreign wives teach their children the foreign customs, and culture. Being so far away from Jerusalem, the political and spiritual Capital of the nation, the people fell away from the way of heaven. This is why the High Holy Days of the ceremonial Laws required ‘all’ males of Israel to visit Jerusalem, and the Temple, to keep them mindful of the spiritual reality in which they were connected. Today the children of Israel sacrifice to any god that suits their fancy, any gods that will give them what they want. Every individual seeks the God of their own heart, but not the LORD who created them. They do not even know who YAHAWAH is. They have completely forgotten him.

Deuteronomy 32:19 And when the LORD saw it, he abhorred them, because of the provoking of his sons, and of his daughters.

When the LORD saw, and sees the children of Israel, wherever they were, and wherever they are following the Astrotheological framework of the other nations, and worse contriving new syncretic spiritual science, and physic systems themselves, he was, and is disgusted with their foolish, destructive behavior. He shuttered, and shutters in disgust, anger, and hatred towards their vile lifestyles.

Deuteronomy 32:20 And he said, I will hide my face from them, I will see what their end shall be: for they are a very froward generation, children in whom is no faith.

Psalm 81:10 I am the LORD thy God, which brought thee out of the land of Egypt: open thy mouth wide, and I will fill it.
          81:11 But my people would not hearken to my voice; and Israel would none of me.
          81:12 So I gave them up unto their own hearts’ lust: and they walked in their own counsels.
          81:13 Oh that my people had hearkened unto me, and Israel had walked in my ways!

Israel rejected the way of the LORD, so the LORD let physics run it’s natural course. What this means is that the LORD created the forces of the physical universe to behave in a fixed way, like gravity, always works a certain fixed way. Under normal circumstances if you throw a bucket of water above your head, and remain in place it will come back down on you. So you’ll always get the same response, when you do the same thing. It is causality, the principle that every cause has an intended effect.
He called that generation, and this generation forward, which means not easily controlled, willful, and stubborn. He looked at them, and looks at this present generation as a crop not worth harvesting, not worth saving from the blight that afflicted it. He said they have no faith, no trust in him. He says the same thing about the generations of the children of Israel that live today.

Deuteronomy 32:21 They have moved me to jealousy with that which is not God; they have provoked me to anger with their vanities: and I will move them to jealousy with those which are not a people; I will provoke them to anger with a foolish nation.

The LORD uses war to chastise nations, and people. The nation of  Israel’s enslavements are as a result of this. He will send a nation against a nation to afflict that nation, when he is in disagreement with the offending nation. Only through the view of the Bible can this be understood. Analyzing this view through any other foundation will bring you to another, albeit false conclusion, especially looking at it from the humanist framework of today. You won’t obtain understanding, only confusion.

Deuteronomy 32:35 To me belongeth vengeance, and recompence; their foot shall slide in due time: for the day of their calamity is at hand, and the things that shall come upon them make haste.

The LORD speaks of the physics of the physical world. Their foot shall slide in due time means they are making bad decisions, choices and actions, and it’s going to catch up to them. The bad choices, decisions, and actions people make are based on their view of life, and the way they think life operates. The philosophical outlook of Humanism is in error, and its technological extension Transhumanism, the epogee of Humanism is in mortal error, yet these outlooks rule the direction of mankind.

Deuteronomy 32:36 For the LORD shall judge his people, and repent himself for his servants, when he seeth that their power is gone, and there is none shut up, or left.

The opposition to the physics of life is shown in the deteriorating state of the social, political, economical affairs of the world. Israel shall be judged according to the laws of heaven on earth, and their consequence will be according to the laws of heaven on earth. The LORD will remember his elect, who are the nobility of Israel, his prophets, and priest. They will obtain mercy in judgment when he sees they are totally vulnerable, and have no power to deliver themselves out of the catastrophic circumstances the world is now in.
                            
Deuteronomy 32:37 And he shall say, Where are their gods, their rock in whom they trusted,
                      32:38 Which did eat the fat of their sacrifices, and drank the wine of their drink offerings? let them rise up and help you, and be your protection.

And the LORD will tease and taunt the willful children of Israel who had no trust in him, who forgot him, and trusted in other things for protection, whether Gods or wealth, or other men.
                           
Deuteronomy 32:39 See now that I, even I, am he, and there is no god with me: I kill, and I make alive; I wound, and I heal: neither is there any that can deliver out of my hand.
                      32:40 For I lift up my hand to heaven, and say, I live for ever.
                      32:41 If I whet my glittering sword, and mine hand take hold on judgment; I will render vengeance to mine enemies, and will reward them that hate me.
                      32:42 I will make mine arrows drunk with blood, and my sword shall devour flesh; and that with the blood of the slain and of the captives, from the beginning of revenges upon the enemy.
                      32:43 Rejoice, O ye nations, with his people: for he will avenge the blood of his servants, and will render vengeance to his adversaries, and will be merciful unto his land, and to his people.

The LORD will delight in the bloody deaths, and slavery of those who hated him. The LORD consoles the descendants of Israel who trust in him, though they will face the calamities of the world, and even die in the world, yet every murder will be avenged, and the LORD will pay back all of his enemies, and will in the end be merciful to the Land of Israel, the earth, and the people of Israel.

Deuteronomy 32:44 And Moses came and spake all the words of this song in the ears of the people, he, and Hoshea the son of Nun.
                      32:45 And Moses made an end of speaking all these words to all Israel:
                      32:46 And he said unto them, Set your hearts unto all the words which I testify among you this day, which ye shall command your children to observe to do, all the words of this law.
                      32:47 For it is not a vain thing for you; because it is your life: and through this thing ye shall prolong your days in the land, whither ye go over Jordan to possess it.

And this song of Moses endures forever. The birth of Israel as a nation began with their redemption from the house of bondage, and our redemption will once again begin with a gathering and deliverance from the present house of spiritual and physical bondage, this world ruled by the governance of the wicked.
