ellauri156.html on line 335: The sequence of events, so far as David is concerned, can be enumerated in this way: (1) David stays in Jerusalem; (2) David stays in bed; (3) David sees Bathsheba bathing herself as he walks on his roof; (4) David sends and inquires about this woman; (5) David learns her identity and that she is married to a military hero; (6) David sends messengers to take her and bring her to him; (7) David lays with her; (8) Bathsheba goes back to her home after she purifies herself. This same sequence can be seen in a number of other texts, none of which is commendable. Shechem “saw, took, and lay with” Dinah, the daughter of Jacob in Genesis 34:2. Judah “saw, took, and went in to” the Canaanite woman he made his wife in Genesis 38:2-3. Achan “saw, coveted, and took” the forbidden spoils of war in Joshua 7:21. Samson did virtually the same in Judges 14. Let us not forget that a similar sequence occurred at the first sin when Eve “saw, desired, and took” the forbidden fruit in Genesis 3. (Thanx a lot Bob for this compendium. This will certainly come handy later on, when looking for something fun to read.)

ellauri182.html on line 195: For Jōdo Shinshū practitioners, shinjin develops over time through "deep hearing" (monpo) of Amitābha's call of the nembutsu. According to Shinran, "to hear" means "that sentient beings, having heard how the Buddha's Vow arose—its origin and fulfillment—are altogether free of doubt."[9] Jinen also describes the way of naturalness whereby Amitābha's infinite light illumines and transforms the deeply rooted karmic evil of countless rebirths into good karma. It is of note that such evil karma is not destroyed but rather transformed: Shin stays within the Mahayana tradition's understanding of śūnyatā and understands that samsara and nirvana are not separate. Once the practitioner's mind is united with Amitābha and Buddha-nature gifted to the practitioner through shinjin, the practitioner attains the state of non-retrogression, whereupon after his death it is claimed he will achieve instantaneous and effortless enlightenment. He will then return to the world as a Bodhisattva, that he may work towards the salvation of all beings.
ellauri222.html on line 361: Grandma Lausch tells Augie, “The more you love people the more they’ll mix you up. A child loves, a person respects. Respect is better than love.” Which is really better, respect or love? The two brothers, Augie and Simon, are on opposite sides of this argument. Augie identifies himself on the side of love. An idealist with a soft heart, he is almost comically susceptible to falling in love, and openly shows his sympathy, even toward the small lizards that are killed by the eagle Caligula. Augie’s vision for an orphan home and academy is driven by his motivation to share love. Simon, on the other hand, prefers respect. He marries Charlotte and stays with her because he admires her business sense, not because he feels romantic love for her. He doesn’t care whether the men at the club love him. In fact, he knows they hate him. But this doesn’t matter to him as long as he is respected. Ultimately, Simon is richer and more successful, but Augie seems happier. What's love got to do with it. What a reptile.

After a few days, the Sutherlands return to Minnesota, and the Pirsigs press on to California. As they near their destination, Pirsig fears that Phaedrus is reviving in his mind and another crazy spell is imminent. 
ellauri488.html on line 502: You can actually verify this in practical ways: If you open the same chat in a different interface (web vs app), the ads often differ or disappear. If you disconnect/reload, ad placement can change even while my text stays the same. That separation is evidence the ad layer is independent of me. So it’s less “believe me vs don’t believe me,” and more “two different systems doing different jobs.”
ellauri499.html on line 195: The texts’ basic purpose is polemic The stories/poems that invoke Baal (and the “Baal prophets” motif) are typically written or reshaped to argue that Baal worship is false and harmful from the perspective of the reforming/Yahweh-centered community. Post-Babylonian editors can add detail or sharpen theology, but the rhetorical aim usually stays the same.
ellauri502.html on line 189: 3. The "Fly Wing" Perspective (The Gnostic View). cageWhat is fascinating is that your exact conclusion—that JHWH is just a jealous, power-hungry entity who wants to be top dog alone—is actually the core belief of an ancient branch of early alternative Christianity called Gnosticism.The Gnostics looked at the Old Testament and said exactly what you are saying: "This Creator god (they called him the Demiurge or Yaldabaoth) acts like a petty tyrant. He demands absolute worship, throws tantrums, and won't share power." In Gnosticism, the snake in the Garden of Eden was actually the good guy trying to give humans the knowledge to escape the tyrant's cosmic cage. So, if you follow traditional theology, God stays the "top dog" because He is the literal fabric of reality, and letting a creature rule would destroy the universe. But if you look at it from a critical or Gnostic perspective, it looks exactly like an absolute monarchy protecting its crown from a coup. Does the idea that Creator vs. Created makes power-sharing logically impossible make sense in their framework, or does it still just look like a cosmic monopoly to you?
xxx/ellauri114.html on line 359: These prophecies help us understand how Edom, Moab, and Ammon could escape the clutches of the anti-Christ. The Lord has chosen Petra as the city of refuge where He will protect His people throughout the Great Tribulation. In doing so, He will make sure the whole area stays out of the hands of His enemy. It also explains why, when He returns, He will first go to Edom to clear the way for His people to return to Jerusalem (Isaiah 63:1-6).
xxx/ellauri122.html on line 770: Some books stay with you for a lifetime, the rest you just blithely walk by on your way to watching tv or cat videos or fling into garbage without so much as looking at the cover. Initially, they may seem to be just stories. As you will find, however, the literature grows and stays with you; they stay with you until you realise their true value: their capacity to alter and re-alter your idea of yourself, others, the society, and the world. Naah, the books on this list help you stay the way you are, keeping all your good old all American prejudices.

Seeking revenge, Prewitt finds Judson in a back alley and the two fight with knives. Prewitt kills Judson, but not before being badly wounded himself; Prewitt goes AWOL and stays with Lorene while Warden covers for his absence.
