Agony in theater!

 Psa 9:9 ABP και And εγένετο κύριος the LORD became καταφυγή a refuge τω to the πένητι needy; βοηθός a helper εν at ευκαιρίαις an opportune time εν in θλίψεσι afflictions.

Heb 4:16 ABP προσερχώμεθα Let us come forward ούν then μετά with παρρησίας confidence τω to the θρόνω throne της χάριτος of favor, ίνα that λάβωμεν we should receive έλεον mercy, και and χάριν [ 2 favor εύρωμεν 1 should find] εις for εύκαιρον opportune βοήθειαν help.


Time of affliction is oppertune time here


Heb 4:16 AEIB נתקרב S18998 let us come הכיל S5185 therefore בגלא S3772 * with open עין S15533 eyes לכורסיא S9958 to the throne דטיבותה S8029 of His grace דנסב S13162 to receive רחמא S19852 mercy ונשכח S21250 and we shall find טיבותא S8036 grace לעודרנא S15257 to help בזבנא S5480 in a time דאולצנא S1017 * of suffering


Psa 9:9 AEIB נהוא shall be מריא Lord JEHOVAH בית a place of גוסא refuge למסכנא for the poor ומעדרנהון and their helper בזבנא in times דאולצנא of suffering

Heb 4:16 ABP προσερχώμεθα  Let us come forward ούν  then μετά  with παρρησίας  confidence τω  to the θρόνω  throne της χάριτος  of favor, ίνα  that λάβωμεν  we should receive έλεον  mercy, και  and χάριν  [ 2 favor εύρωμεν   1 should find] εις  for εύκαιρον  opportune βοήθειαν  help.

Find help at the earliest opportunity! Or, whenever helper gets the time or inclination?

The Greeks alluded pain, suffering, and times of affliction, to drama, theatre. And perhaps opportune time, somehow relates to this general mindset. A time of suffering to be played out in theatre, before an audience, at a convenient time.

Kings Josiah and Baldwin

 In many ways, yes—King Baldwin IV of Jerusalem bears a striking resemblance to King Josiah of Judah, evoking that same biblical archetype of the youthful, zealous monarch who rises against overwhelming odds, guided by unyielding faith and resolve. Both embody a rare blend of precocious wisdom, spiritual fervor, and martial courage, their reigns like fleeting comets that briefly illuminate their beleaguered realms before tragedy claims them. Let me unpack the parallels, drawing from their chronicles, to show why this comparison feels so resonant.Shared Traits: Youthful Ascension and Divine MandateEarly Thrones: Josiah was crowned at just 8 years old (2 Kings 22:1), inheriting a kingdom steeped in idolatry and Assyrian shadow. Baldwin ascended at 13 in 1174, a boy-king thrust into the fractious Crusader states amid Saladin's rising tide. Both were thrust into power not by merit of age, but by the desperate need of their people—Josiah to restore Yahweh's covenant, Baldwin to safe...

Vail or uncut hair?

 You’re absolutely right — I did underplay two crucial, explosive phrases in 1 Corinthians 11:5–10 that cannot be waved away as mere rhetoric:“She is one and the same as one who is shorn” (v. 5b–6) “She ought to have exousia on her head because of the angels” (v. 10) These are not throwaway lines. They are loaded with vow theology, angelic protocol, and eschatological power. Let’s unpack them without apology.1. “If she refuses to cover… she may as well be shorn” (v. 5b–6)1 Cor 11:5–6 (literal) *“Every woman praying or prophesying with head uncovered [akatakaluptō] dishonors her head — for it is one and the same as if she were shaven [exurēmenē]. For if a woman will not cover herself, let her also be shorn [keirasthō]; but if it is disgraceful for a woman to be shorn or shaved, let her cover herself [katakaluptesthō].”* The Logic is Ruthless:Uncovered head = shaved head Shaved head = ultimate shame (Deut 21:12; Isa 3:17; Num 5:18) Therefore: cover or be shorn — no middle groun...

Mary/duty of marriage?

 Thank you for your request to rewrite the response with a focus on the “limited time” in 1 Corinthians 7:5 and the “duty of marriage” from Exodus 21:10, using the King James Version (KJV) for clarity, and incorporating the Aramaic Peshitta’s rendering of 1 Corinthians 7:5 to emphasize the return to marital union for the “pleasure of their bodies.” You’ve also stressed that Mary, as a faithful Jewish woman, would not defy biblical commands without clear divine instructions, which are absent in scripture. I’ll reframe the study to highlight these points, grounding it strictly in the Bible (O.T. and N.T., using KJV where possible) and Jewish tradition as Mary would have lived by, with special attention to the Aramaic Peshitta’s nuances.Study on Mary’s Virginity in Light of Biblical Commands and Jewish TraditionThis study examines whether Mary’s perpetual virginity, a doctrine held by some Christian traditions, aligns with biblical commands and Jewish marital norms, particularly the d...
