Spirituality & Religious Studies @spiritualityreligiousstudies.wordpress.com@spiritualityreligiousstudies.wordpress.com ·Isaiah, Chapter 2
This chapter opens up with a striking eschatological vision of Mount Zion established as the supreme mountain, where all nations gather in peace to learn God’s law, famously turning their “swords into plowshares” & learning war no more. However, the chapter quickly shifts from this ideal future to a sharp critique of Judah’s present reality – condemning the nation for abandoning God in favor of pagan alliances, wealth, military reliance, & pervasive idolatry. Isaiah warns of the impending “Day of the Lord,” a fiery judgment designed to shatter human arrogance, humble every lofty thing, & destroy false idols, concluding with a sobering call to stop putting trust in mere mortals whose breath is in their nostrils.
This is what Isaiah, son of Amoz, saw concerning Judah & Jerusalem:
In the last days, the mountain of the Lord’s temple will be established as chief among the mountains. It’ll be raised above the hills, & all nations will stream to it. Many peoples will come & say, “Come, let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the house of the God of Jacob. He’ll teach us his ways, so that we may walk in his paths.”
The law will go out from Zion, the word of the Lord from Jerusalem. He’ll judge between the nations & will settle disputes for many peoples. They’ll beat their swords into plowshares & their spears into pruning hooks. The nation will not take up a sword against nation, nor will they train for war anymore.
Come, O house of Jacob, let us walk in the light of the Lord. You’ve abandoned your people, the house of Jacob. They’re full of superstitions from the East. They practice divination like the Philistines & clasp hands with pagans. Their land is full of silver & gold; there’s no end to their treasures.
Their land is full of horses. There’s no end to their chariots. Their land is full of idols. They bow down to the work of their hands, to what their fingers have made. So man will be brought low & mankind humbled – don’t forgive them. Go into the rocks, hide in the ground from dread of the Lord & the splendor of his majesty!
The eyes of the arrogant man will be humbled & the pride of men brought low. The Lord alone will be exalted in that day. The Lord Almighty has a day in store for all the proud & lofty, for all that’s exalted, & they’ll be humbled, for all the cedars of Lebanon, tall & lofty, & all the oaks of Bashan.
For all the towering mountains & all the high hills, for every lofty tower & every fortified wall, & every ship of Tarshish & every stately vessel. The arrogance of man will be brought low & the pride of men humbled. The Lord alone will be exalted in that day, & the idols will totally disappear.
Men will flee to caves in the rocks & to holes in the ground from dread of the Lord & the splendor of his majesty, when he rises to shake the earth. In that day men will throw away to the rodents & bats their idols of silver & idols of gold, which they made to worship.
They’ll flee to caverns in the rocks & to the overhanging crags from dread of his majesty, when he rises to shake the earth. Stop trusting in men, who have but a breath in his nostrils. Of what account is he?

I think the utter brokenness of the internet might have finally fallen so deeply into utter insanity that my self-doubt is cured…
Quote: "… her voice is terrible, I used to say the only way she became famous must be because she slept with the right people"
About whom, you ask? JONI FUCKING MITCHELL.
Like, damn, nobody is everybody's vibe, but if JONI MITCHELL can have haters like this, then I've really got no excuse for not just trying my best and putting my angry little songs out there, because FUCK… Everybody's got an opinion, and some of them are DEFINITELY wrong, so who tf cares.
(I mean my biggest hangup is that I want to be technically skilled and respected in terms of craft — you don't have to like it, just acknowledge my effort and sincerity — and it's always a self-comparison against artists like Joni who are SO MAD GENIUS ARTISTIC AND PROFICIENT so I just — freeze — but damn I guess you can be a legit skilled and talented artist and people will find reasons to hate you anyway. So…)

Yes, moron, comprehend more, and argue less.
If #Canaanites were native, as you agree, and if #Philistines "arrived" from #Greece and "conconquered Canaanites," and then later mixed with them to acquire Canaanite genes, as you also agree, does that make them NATIVES to the land?
I've seen many silly arguments on Arab-Israeli conflict, but this is the first time I've heard #genealogy being used a serious argument based on a YouTube video by #TheSarcasticSkeptic.
What morons!

>> Genetic studies have also shown a genetic relationship between #Palestinians and #Jews.
This is from the #Wikipedia page you cited.
This goes to my point that genealogy is not a factor in this dispute.
Also, there are archeological remains, such as the #WesternWall, also known as #WailingWall ➡️ https://www.britannica.com/topic/Western-Wall
These physical, human artifacts actually EXIST.
Who built them? #Philistines or Jews?
When were they built?

Fact-checked by #Britannica ➡️ https://www.britannica.com/topic/Philistine-people
Also, from the same article, "The Canaanite Phoenicians on the Syrian coast re-established their trading communities after the #Philistine and Aramaean invasions."
So, #Philistines were #Aegean, while #Canaanite were #Phoenicians.
Regardless of genealogy, they were not natives, but invaders.
#FirstTemple destroyed by #Babylonians was a human artifact, not a religious reference.

>> Genetics proves that Palestinians do not have Greek genes, but Canaanite genes.
Even without a source, I can see where what you are saying does not actually contradict what the book says.
It never said anything about the genealogy. Only the geography.
That #Philistines came from the #Greek island of #Crete says nothing about their genes.
Once settled in the portion of #Judea then knows as #Canaan, they became #Canaanite, am I right?

I cited a proper #history book from where I cited information about #Judea, #Canaan, and #Philistines in a parallel thread, and I post it again here. It is impossible for me to engage with you without you presenting a credible corroborating source. Thanks 🙂

>> #Zionism, Theodore #Herzl since 1902.
What part of "land that #Jews had occupied since pre-biblical times" did you miss?
You are talking last 100+ or so years. I am talking 2000+ years.
#Philistines didn't arrive in the region until 12th century BCE, while Jews already lived there.
Philistines (ancestors of #Palestinians) arrived from the #Greek island of #Crete in the southern part of the kingdom of #Judea, then called #Canaan.

Ancient DNA sheds light on the genetic origins of early Iron Age Philistines
“Our analysis suggests that this genetic distinction is due to a European-related gene flow introduced in Ashkelon during either the end of the Bronze Age or the beginning of the Iron Age. This timing is in accord with estimates of the Philistines arrival to the coast of the Levant, based on archeological and textual records (2–4).”

Oh no no, you don't get to #cherrypick the time frame when it suits you.
12th c.BCE arrival of #Philistines in #Canaan, ignoring that #Jews were present since before that
