I like the counter point "The blood of the covenant is thicker than the water of the womb".

The initial Bible quote is in reference to the blood of family can draw one astray from the light, god and the holy spirit.

But the counter point? That's lovely. And no reference to the Bible in that one. But purely about friends and family made through bonds is stronger than just blood lineage. This quote is from the... Early 1800s(?) i believe. Doesn't really matter. As long as there were free thinking minds, there will always be a clever person that would come up with something similar to that quote. It's just the most famous. But it was a poignant counter to the Bible quote. Also biting the thumb at religious belief on top of it all.

So. "The blood of the covenant is thicker than the water of the womb". Keep that in your hearts my friends. It's one of the real truths of the world and reality as we know it. You can choose your own family and discard the link of blood.

My mum is a part of my family. And not because she gave birth to me, but because i chose her to be my mum. Which is very very very special. More special than "of the womb".

Others will choose another for their mum, guardian or similar. Because it is the right thing to do. Sometimes the family you're born into has really fucking shitty people in it. You may choose some or none to be apart of your Real, and i mean Real with a capital R, family.

Your family is built around your (hopefully) free thinking mind. You are never locked in to what ever life started your off with. Remember that friends.

Make your family. Never accept the default mode. Create. Develop. Love. Accept. You're fine the way you are (mostly, some of you are gods damned crazy/fucked out complete assholes and likely won't find a true family, being one of the few that are stuck with lineage). Remember. The people you accept have to accept you. So that bond is amazing and wonderful.

Find your love... Never be assigned it.

Love you all my friends!

Oh.. I'm looking at images of old scrolls, writs etc that have been uploaded to the net by various museums. It's been interesting seeing the detail that books like "Solomon's Key" and such have missed or out right ignored. Like the Puritans that translated the Solomon scrolls/writ, aka The "Solomon Key(s)" ignored every bit of the sex stuff. Knobs. Called it "arcana obscura". I think.

We need true modern historians to be given access to these old as Sin scrolls and writs so they can be properly analysed and translated. Now that we use digital technology, the artifacts can be preserved in darkness and climate control, while they/we will get amazingly detailed images/details, thus it can be translated by modern, objective eyes.

So I'm going to write to the museum's to revisit these artifacts and give us a modern, complete view. I think we'll find some amazing things that have definitely been missed.

Can anyone assist me with this endeavour? Ones that have better words, thoughts and understanding of the procedures involved?

I believe i have a contact at the museum in Munich. So I'll see if i can get into contact with them and see how such a thing can be done.

But.... Some help will be greatly appreciated. Even if it's only in writing a letter/request.

"And King Sol′o·mon himself loved many foreign wives along with the daughter of Phar′aoh, Mo′ab·ite, Am′mon·ite, E′dom·ite, Si·do′ni·an [and] Hit′tite  women, from the nations of whom Jehovah had said to the sons of Israel: “YOU must not go in among them, and they themselves should not come in among YOU; truly they will incline YOUR heart to follow their gods.”  It was to them that Sol′o·mon clung to love [them].  And he came to have seven hundred wives, princesses, and three hundred concubines; and his wives gradually inclined his heart.   And it came about in the time of Sol′o·mon’s growing old that his wives themselves had inclined his heart to follow other gods; and his heart did not prove to be complete with Jehovah his God like the heart of David his father.  And Sol′o·mon began going after Ash′to·reth the goddess of the Si·do′ni·ans and after Mil′com the disgusting thing of the Am′mon·ites.  And Sol′o·mon began to do what was bad in the eyes of Jehovah, and he did not follow Jehovah fully like David his father.

It was then that Sol′o·mon proceeded to build a high place to Che′mosh the disgusting thing of Mo′ab on the mountain that was in front of Jerusalem, and to Mo′lech the disgusting thing of the sons of Am′mon. And that was the way he did for all his foreign wives who were making sacrificial smoke and sacrificing to their gods.

And Jehovah came to be incensed at Sol′o·mon, because his heart had inclined away from Jehovah the God of Israel, the one appearing to him twice. And respecting this thing he commanded him not to go after other gods; but he had not kept that which Jehovah had commanded.  Jehovah now said to Sol′o·mon: “For the reason that this has taken place with you and you have not kept my covenant and my statutes that I laid in command upon you, I shall without fail rip the kingdom away from off you, and I shall certainly give it to your servant."

    “Hear this word that I am taking up over YOU people as a dirge, O house of Israel: “The virgin, Israel, has fallen; She cannot get up again. She has been forsaken upon her own ground.  There is no one raising her up.

“For this is what the Sovereign Lord Jehovah has said, ‘The very city that was going forth with a thousand will have a hundred left; and the one going forth with a hundred will have ten left, for the house of Israel. Was it sacrifices and gift offerings that YOU people brought near to me in the wilderness for forty years, O house of Israel? And YOU will certainly carry  Sak′kuth YOUR king and Kai′wan, YOUR images, the star of YOUR god, whom YOU made for yourselves.  And I will cause YOU to go into exile beyond Damascus,’  he whose name is Jehovah the God of armies has said.”
