This question should ask everybody themselves? 1.) Can we socialize with Facebook?2.) Do we like to argue about specific questions?3.) Do we want to get approved?4.) Do we want to show how great we are doing and let out the rest?5.) Do we like to get entertained?6.) Do we use Facebook for distraction?7.) Do we want to find out what others are doing? 8.) Do we like to remain in contact without speaking and seeing the person?9.) Do we like to build up a huge network that never works when we need it? 10.) Do we like to get instant feedback for some pictures, notes, and messages? 11.) Do we like to get news?We can use Facebook for ourselves when we need fast an answer.That we share our feelings, concerns, and opinions.We can post a change of our status to have 1.) a new our Job, 2.) to be engaged, 3.) married, 4.) separated, 5.) a friend died,6.) or to get a child. We get this message out and after a short time, it is forgotten. Still, we can get something meaningful out of it. When our FB friends reply we feel understood, feel to be on the same page. And this might be true for a single moment, afterward everybody is going on in his life.What was for us so important is forgotten fast. We really should connect physical with real friends and don't think that posting on Facebook is enough. Isolation is the disease today and with Facebook, we can get much easier isolated. When I had trouble with my publisher, I could use my Facebook to blackmail my publisher to get what he promised to give me…I could get a foreword for one of my books from an awesome famous person…I could help to organize support for the earthquake in Nepal…I got some inspirations.I learned something.We can use Facebook for our advance.

Pork is a popular choice for many people. We're so familiar with boiled pork, fried pork, and grilled pork. What about salted pork? If you're looking for a traditional recipe to please your taste, stay tuned.A: Welcome to “Food Delight” on VOV24/7 with recipes and cooking tips. Pork is a popular choice for many people. We're so familiar with boiled pork, fried pork, and grilled pork. What about salted pork? If you're looking for a traditional recipe to please your taste, stay tuned.B: Today we'll introduce to you a pork recipe which is a New Year staple of Vietnam's Red Dao people along with sticky rice cakes, wine, and boiled chicken. The dish, which is prepared 3 weeks ahead of the Lunar New Year or Tet, is offered to the ancestors and then served to guests who visit one's home in the first days of the new year.A: The main ingredients are pork, salt, a special local spice called “Màotziao”, laksa leaves, galangal, and guise leaves to colorize the meat during salting. The pork is cut into bite-sized pieces, marinated with salt, rubbed with ground herbs, and put into a jar.B: The jar is sealed using layers of Dong and banana leaves to prevent air from getting in, so that the salting process can happen. Dang Thi Tien is a Red Dao woman who is experienced in making this dish. She said: “I make salted pork every year, when Tet comes. The ingredients are simple: pork, herbs, and salt. In the past, salt pork was a staple in most households before we had refrigeration. We marinate meat with a lot of salt to keep it longer, from 2 to 3 months. This dish is very delicious and satisfying to people of all ages.”A: Salted pork is known to last a long time. Salt both prevents the growth of unwanted bacteria, and aids in the drying of the pork. If it is stored the right way, the pork could last 4-5 months.B: The dish, which can be served after around 3 weeks, is fatty and chewy like bacon. Its strong salty taste mixed with the sweet aroma of the herbs creates a distinctive flavor that can be found nowhere else."The salted pork can be stir-fried with bamboo shoots and beans. A wood-burning stove lends a smoky aroma and charred flavor to the dish. You must keep an eye on the fire, which should not be too big, to avoid burning and ruining the flavor of the pork," Tien said.Ms. Trieu Thi Huong said: "Red Dao people working far from home miss the flavor of salted pork, especially when Tet comes. The dish is an indispensable part of Tet, like sticky rice cakes and purple steamed sticky rice.” A: Try it when you visit Yen Bai province. You won't be disappointed. We'd love to hear your opinion and your thoughts about this salted pork. Follow us on our Facebook Fanpage – VOV5 English Service – or send an email to englishsection@vov.vn.

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Non-directed conceptual founding, published by Tsvi Benson-Tilsen on January 15, 2023 on The AI Alignment Forum. [Metadata: crossposted from. Written 13 June 2022. I'm fairly likely to not respond to comments promptly. If you're especially interested in chatting, my gmail address is: tsvibtcontact ] In trying to understand minds-in-general, we sometimes ask questions that talk about "big" things (taking "big" to ambiguously mean any of large, complex, abstract, vague, important, touches many things, applies to many contexts, "high-level"). E.g.: What is it for a mind to have thoughts or to care about stuff? How does care and thought relate? What is it to believe a proposition? Why do agents use abstractions? These "big" things such as thought, caring, propositions, beliefs, agents, abstractions, and so on, have to be analyzed and re-understood in clearer terms in order to get anywhere useful. When others make statements about these things, I'm pulled to pause their flow of thoughts and instead try to get clear on meanings. In part, that pull is because the more your thoughts use descriptions that aren't founded on words with clear meaning, the more leeway is given to your words to point at different things in different instances.[1] Main claim From talking with Sam, I've come to think that there's an important thing I hadn't seen sufficiently clearly: A description of Y that uses terms that are only as "foundational" as Y or even "less foundational" than Y, can still be useful and doesn't have to be harmful. For analyzing "big" things, such descriptions are necessary. Circular founding A description is a proposition of the form "Y is a ...". A description is founded on X if it assumes that X exists, e.g. by mentioning X, or by mentioning Z which mentions X, or by relying on X to be in the background.[2] Some descriptions of Y might be founded on Y, or on X where X is itself founded on Y. A description like that could be called circular, or in general non-directed. The circularity could be harmful. E.g., you could trick yourself into thinking you're talking about anything coherently, when really you're not: whenever you ask "Wait, what's Y?" you respond "Oh it's XZ", and you say "Z is YX", and you say "X is YZ", and you never do the work of connecting XYZ to stuff that matters, so it's all hot air. Or, you might have "Y" more densely connected to its neighbors, but not beholden to anything outside of its neighbors, so "Y" and its neighbors might drift under their own collaborative inertia and drag other ideas with them away from reality. There are probably other problems with circular founding, so, there's reason to be suspicious. But: (A) Non-directed founding can elucidate relevant structure; (B) For "big" things, it's more likely to be feasible to found somewhat-non-directedly, and especially somewhat-circularly, and less likely to be feasible to found strictly in a certain direction; and therefore (C) For analyzing and understanding "big" things, non-directed and circular founding are likely to be best-in-class among the available tools. (A): "Thing = Nexus" as a circular, non-directed, useful founding As an example, take the description of a thing as an inductive nexus of reference (more specifically, the claim that nexusness points essentially [see below] at the nexus of thingness). This description makes use of a pre-theoretic notion of the "stuff" between which there may be relations of reference, and defines "reference" in terms of what minds in general do. So the definition of nexus is founded on "stuff", which is pre-theoretically on a similar footing to "thing", making the definition of nexus somewhat circularly founded. And, the definition of nexus is founded on "mind", which is a "bigger" concept than "thing", making the definition of nexus founded on so...

Did you know that according to English scientist and professor of neuroscience and psychology, Mathew Walker, the author of Why We Sleep: The New Science of Sleep and Dreams that current research shows “that there appears to be a causal affect between sleep and our risk for Alzheimer's Disease?” For this week's Brain Fact Friday and Neuroscience Meets Social and Emotional Learning Podcast EPISODE #223 we are going to take some of the most noticeable lessons learned from our recent podcast with Dr. John Denboer, on “This is Dementia: Disrupting the Decline”[i] and see what we can learn from Mathew Walker's most current research. This way, we can take a proactive approach to our sleep, optimizing our potential for learning, memory and retention, and see what we can learn about this devastating disease that affects “6.5M Americans, and is expected to double by 2050.” This topic goes hand in hand with our theme of Season 8 of our podcast: where our focus is on Brain Health and Learning with a look at How an Understanding of Our Brain Can Improve Learning in Ourselves (adults, teachers, workers) as well as our future generations of learners. On this episode we will cover: ✔︎What is the difference between Alzheimer's and Dementia ✔︎What the most current research says about the connection between Alzheimer's Disease and sleep. ✔︎11 risk factors that we can learn more about to mitigate Alzheimer's Disease. ✔︎A look at the 2 proteins that damage and change the brain. ✔︎What we can do right now to mitigate Alzheimer's Disease by understanding sleep and our brain. What is Alzheimer's and What is Dementia? On our interview with Dr. Denboer, who has spent most of his career working with patients on disrupting dementia, we began our interview defining each of these terms, since many of us aren't sure exactly what they are, and if we don't know what they are, how can we be sure we are being proactive with preventing them? Dementia: is a general term for “decline in mental ability severe enough to interfere with daily life”[ii] and there's not just one form of dementia. There's Alzheimer's, Vascular Dementia, Lewy Body Dementia, Frontotemporal Dementia, and Mixed Dementia. Alzheimer's is “a degenerative brain disease that leads to dementia symptoms and gradually worsens over time.”[iii] We opened up our interview with Dr. Denboer with a quote from Dr. Babak Nayeri, a clinical associate professor from the University of Arizona who said “Dementia is not an aging disease; however, it is the most common disease of the aging population.” (from the Netflix documentary, This is Dementia). “Though the greatest known risk factor for Alzheimer's is increasing age, the disease is not a normal part of aging.”[iv] 11 Risk Facts of Alzheimer's Disease One of America's leading psychiatrists and brain health experts, Dr. Daniel Amen, who we've spoken often about on this podcast, believes that Alzheimer's (that damages the hippocampus or memory center of our brain) and is responsible for “the disease-memory impairment”[v] is “a lifestyle disease similar to heart disease and type 2 diabetes and that our everyday habits contribute to our everyday risk.”[vi] Dr. Amen lists 11 risk factors that increase our probability for Alzheimer's (with the acronym Bright Minds) and sleep is the S in this acronym. You can read the rest of the risk factors here[vii] but to review them quickly, they are: B: For blood flow problems R: For retirement and aging I: For inflammation G: For genetics H: For head trauma T: For toxins M: For mental health problems I: For immune system problems N: For neurohormone problems D: For diabesity (that seriously impacts brain health and memory) S: For sleep that we will dive deeper into today. Which leads us to this week's Brain Fact Friday, that we opened up this episode with. Did you know that according to English scientist and professor of neuroscience and psychology, Mathew Walker, that current research shows “that there appears to be a causal affect between sleep and our risk for Alzheimer's Disease?” I recently watched Mathew Walker's The Science of Better Sleep Masterclass[viii] and he explained that a recent study took a person who was sleep deprived (of non-rem sleep) for just one night, the next day “they saw an immediate increase in their blood of that toxic protein beta-amyloid”[ix] which shows “that there appears to be a causal affect between sleep and our risk for Alzheimer's Disease.” (Mathew Walker). What are Beta-Amyloids and Tau? These two proteins are NOT the only factors in Alzheimer's but since we now know from Mathew Walker that lack of sleep causes amyloid to increase in our blood, I think it's important to understand what this could do to our brain over time. To see a full presentation of How Alzheimer's Affects the Brain[x], I will put a link to a page to review in the show notes. In this article, with a very clear video, you will learn how these two proteins, beta amyloid and tau, become toxic in the brain. You will see how the abnormal tau protein accumulate and eventually form tangles inside neurons, and beta amyloid clumps into plaques, which slowly build up between neurons. This is how Alzheimer's begins to change the brain, and along with other changes, and inflammation, neurons begin to die, causing the brain to shrink, beginning in the hippocampus, our memory center, which is important for us all for learning. To conclude this week's Brain Fact Friday, where we looked at Mathew Walker's research that shows a causal affect between sleep and our risk for Alzheimer's Disease, I think a good action step for all of us would be to take a serious look at our sleep to be sure we are getting more than 6 hours each night. Or to at least understand what happens when we do go below 6 hours of sleep/night. I'm sure this will lead you to wonder just how much sleep we should be getting each night? Mathew Walker did cover the importance of sleep with elite athletes saying “sleep may be the greatest legal performance enhancing drug that too few athletes are abusing enough in this modern day and age” and that elite athletes like Lebron James gets 11 hours of sleep each night (a long sleep at night with 1-2 naps in the day) and tennis play Roger Federer gets in between 10-12 hours sleep/day and I'm sure if you ask a sports star with a proven track record how much sleep they get each night, they will talk of the importance of prioritizing sleep. If you are not an elite athlete, looking to improve performance, Walker recommends 7-9 hours of sleep each night. There's a lot more that we can do, but we will cover that on another episode. Until then, I hope this episode shocked you enough (like it did me) to work as hard as I can to make sure we strive for improving our sleep each night, since we know this will affect our future health as a strong Alzheimer's prevention strategy. I hope everyone sleeps well this weekend, as we prepare for our much-awaited interview with sleep and dream expert Dr. Baland Jalal[xi], from Harvard.

Luke 14:7-11 - 7 So He told a parable to those who were invited, when He noted how they chose the best places, saying to them: 8 “When you are invited by anyone to a wedding feast, do not sit down in the best place, lest one more honorable than you be invited by him; 9 and he who invited you and him come and say to you, ‘Give place to this man,' and then you begin with shame to take the lowest place. 10 (A)But when you are invited, go and sit down in the lowest place, so that when he who invited you comes he may say to you, ‘Friend, go up higher.' Then you will have glory in the presence of those who sit at the table with you. 11 (B)For whoever exalts himself will be [a]humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted.”

This podcast is in response to friends wanting to reach out as a resource for my mental health. Thank you, but please take these thought into consideration as a person within and for the movement or Black liberation. 4:20 - 1. Please make sure Black lives matter outside of the unjustified deaths within these systems of power. This included the workplace and beyond. Using your talents, resources, privileges, access, tools, time, knowledge and everything between to advocate for Black representation and equity everywhere. 5:20 - 2. If you don't know what to do, recognize that we all have the power to shift paradigms. If you're on hiring committees, executive board, and/or make executive decisions is the Black perspective being considered or assisting in the decision making? At the end of the day, you have to commit to making a change. 6:15 - 3. We continue to struggle for justice and our health is being effected. Many laws, decisions, and actions made place Black bodies at a higher disadvantage to create wealth, experience higher levels of stress, and just live! Understand how you contribute to anti-Blackness and your self-care. 8:20 - 4. If you don't understand things that contribute to the Black experience, research. We also had to research information on our own considering we learned the same Eurocentric history as other Americans. It's okay to explore a history that is not of your own ethnicity, nationality, race, etc. If your are Black and do know how much about your history, look into it! It's so rich… 10:25 - 5. Be willing to find yourself in a vulnerable position to learn/understand. If you're coming from a pure intention, vocalize that and explore something together. I personally believe it's better to be in a vulnerable place and learn than shield yourself for your own comfort and safety of your ego being in pain. 11:15 - 6. Don't expect Black folks to be willing to teach and explain our experience to you. With that, please don't take it personal. It may not be the right time and may never be. Don't let that stop your curiosity of being a better ally or champion of support. Once again, we had to learn our own history too. 12:00 - 7. Reaching out can be useful, but speaking life into someone is a whole new level. These words from friends have continued to propel me forward in low times and I appreciate them. Building rapport and knowing someone's love language may be useful to know what's best, but the power of your actions is worth the chance. 16:05 - 8. Understand your motive: Awareness vs Action. Wherever you are, thanks. How can you propel your activism further. When you look back some years down the line, what impact do you say you wanted to have? 17:05 - TAKE AWAYS: 1. Do your part! Add to the movement where you are willing and strong. 2. Come together, organize, support, and please stick with it until things change. 3. Race never had to be so sticky, understand it is a tool. It can be used lease 2 ways. A) Understanding how different groups operate, live, what makes them different/special. B) For destruction as we've seen with stereotypes, discrimination and prejudice throughout history. 20:20 - Final affirmations and closing --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/limbs/message

QUOTE"The Sabbath is to time what the tabernacle and temple are to space: a cathedral in time. On the seventh day, we experience in time what the temple and tabernacle represented in spaces, which is eternal life with God in a complete creation."KEY TAKEAWAYSThe building of the tabernacle in Exodus 40 has deep connections with the theme of seventh-day rest and the creation account in Genesis.The tabernacle is presented as a mini cosmos, brought into being by the seven acts of divine speech by God. When Moses builds this symbolic mini cosmos, seven times over he obeys the divine command.SHOW NOTES:In part 1 (0-8:30), Tim and Jon recap their conversation so far. They go over the story of the Passover and review how it reflects the creation account in Genesis.In part 2 (8:30-22:30), Tim transitions to the story of Israel collecting manna in the wilderness in Exodus 16.Exodus 16:4-35Then the Lord said to Moses, “Behold, I am about to rain bread from heaven for you, and the people shall go out and gather a day's portion every day, that I may test them, whether they will walk in my law or not. On the sixth day, when they prepare what they bring in, it will be twice as much as they gather daily.” So Moses and Aaron said to all the people of Israel, “At evening you shall know that it was the Lord who brought you out of the land of Egypt, and in the morning you shall see the glory of the Lord, because he has heard your grumbling against the Lord. For what are we, that you grumble against us?” And Moses said, “When the Lord gives you in the evening meat to eat and in the morning bread to the full, because the Lord has heard your grumbling that you grumble against him—what are we? Your grumbling is not against us but against the Lord.”Then Moses said to Aaron, “Say to the whole congregation of the people of Israel, ‘Come near before the Lord, for he has heard your grumbling.’” And as soon as Aaron spoke to the whole congregation of the people of Israel, they looked toward the wilderness, and behold, the glory of the Lord appeared in the cloud. And the Lord said to Moses, “I have heard the grumbling of the people of Israel. Say to them, ‘At twilight you shall eat meat, and in the morning you shall be filled with bread. Then you shall know that I am the Lord your God.’”In the evening quail came up and covered the camp, and in the morning dew lay around the camp. And when the dew had gone up, there was on the face of the wilderness a fine, flake-like thing, fine as frost on the ground. When the people of Israel saw it, they said to one another, “What is it? For they did not know what it was. And Moses said to them, “It is the bread that the Lord has given you to eat. This is what the Lord has commanded: ‘Gather of it, each one of you, as much as he can eat. You shall each take an omer, according to the number of the persons that each of you has in his tent.’” And the people of Israel did so. They gathered, some more, some less. But when they measured it with an omer, whoever gathered much had nothing left over, and whoever gathered little had no lack. Each of them gathered as much as he could eat. And Moses said to them, “Let no one leave any of it over till the morning.” But they did not listen to Moses. Some left part of it till the morning, and it bred worms and stank. And Moses was angry with them. Morning by morning they gathered it, each as much as he could eat; but when the sun grew hot, it melted.On the sixth day they gathered twice as much bread, two omers each. And when all the leaders of the congregation came and told Moses, he said to them, “This is what the Lord has commanded: ‘Tomorrow is a day of solemn rest, a holy Sabbath to the Lord; bake what you will bake and boil what you will boil, and all that is left over lay aside to be kept till the morning.’” So they laid it aside till the morning, as Moses commanded them, and it did not stink, and there were no worms in it. Moses said, “Eat it today, for today is a Sabbath to the Lord; today you will not find it in the field. Six days you shall gather it, but on the seventh day, which is a Sabbath, there will be none.”On the seventh day some of the people went out to gather, but they found none. And the Lord said to Moses, “How long will you refuse to keep my commandments and my laws? See! The Lord has given you the Sabbath; therefore on the sixth day he gives you bread for two days. Remain each of you in his place; let no one go out of his place on the seventh day.” So the people rested on the seventh day.Now the house of Israel called its name manna. It was like coriander seed, white, and the taste of it was like wafers made with honey. Moses said, “This is what the Lord has commanded: ‘Let an omer of it be kept throughout your generations, so that they may see the bread with which I fed you in the wilderness, when I brought you out of the land of Egypt.’” And Moses said to Aaron, “Take a jar, and put an omer of manna in it, and place it before the Lord to be kept throughout your generations.” As the Lord commanded Moses, so Aaron placed it before the testimony to be kept. The people of Israel ate the manna forty years, till they came to a habitable land. They ate the manna till they came to the border of the land of Canaan.Tim notes that manna was supposed to be a little taste of the new creation. Manna was a new work of creation that violated normal creation while also fitting within God’s ideal purpose for creation (i.e., within the seven-day scheme). Manna was a divine gift that came from proximity to the divine glory (Ex 16:9-10). This miraculous provision didn’t behave like normal food, and there was more than enough each day, no matter how much was gathered.Tim also shares that the rhythms of gathering and not gathering on the Sabbath is an imitation of God’s own patterns of work and rest in Genesis 1. Similarly, God announced “good” days one through six and “very good” on day seven. This parallels with Israel collecting manna on days one through six and “double manna” on day seven. Furthermore, on the seventh day God “rested” (took up residence in his temple), and on the seventh day Israel “rests” and Moses “rested” a perpetual sample of manna “before Yahweh” and “before the testimony.”Tim cites scholar Stephen Geller:“... manna is presented as a new work of creation that disrupts the established order of creation. In fact, there is a clear parallelism between the creation account in Gen 1-2:4 and Exod 16. In both passages there is a dichotomy between the first six days and the seventh day. In Gen 1, the work of each day is stated by God to be "good," a term that marks its completion. But on the sixth day the phrase "very good" marks the completion not just of the acts of creation on that day, but of the first six days as a whole. Genesis 2:1 states explicitly that "the heaven and earth were completed." Yet, to the perplexity of exegesis, the very next verse says that "God completed on the seventh day the work he did and ceased on the seventh day all work he did." The second of these two statements must be viewed as an explanation of the first: God completed his work by ceasing.”(Stephen Geller, “Exodus 16: A Literary and Theological Reading,” Interpretation vol. (2005), p. 13.)In part 3 (22:30-36:30), the guys dive into the actual Sabbath command as part of the Ten Commandments, which is given in seven Hebrew sentences. The Sabbath command in Exodus 20:8-11 is expressed in seven statements arranged in a chiastic symmetry. Tim says this is another fascinating layer of the theme of seventh-day rest in the Bible.Exodus 20:8-11A – Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.B – Six days you will laborC – and do all your work,D – but the seventh day is a sabbath of the Lord your God;C’ – you shall not do any work,you or your son or your daughter, your male or your female servant,or your cattle or your sojourner who stays with you.B’ – For in six days the Lord made the heavens and the earth,the sea and all that is in them, and rested on the seventh day;A’ – therefore the Lord blessed the sabbath day and made it holy.Tim cites scholar Leigh Trevaskis to make his point:“The sabbatical rest seems to remind Israel of her covenant obligations as YHWH’s new creation. Though this rest is more immediately connected to the exodus in these chapters, it has its roots in the creation story (Gen 2:1-3; cf. Exod 20:11) and by connecting Israel’s remembrance of her redemption from Egypt with the sabbatical rest, the exodus becomes infused with further theological significance: just as Gods seventh day rest in the creation story marks the emergence of his new creation, so does Israel’s sabbatical rest attest to her emergence as YHWH’s new creation through his act of redemption. And since her identity as a new creation is tied up with the covenant (cf. Exod 15:1-19; 19:4-5), Israel’s sabbatical rests… presumably recall her obligation to remain faithful to this covenant, encouraging her to live according to the Creators will.” (Leigh Trevaskis, “The Purpose of Leviticus 24 within its Literary Context,” 298-299.)Tim then walks through Exodus 24, which is the start of God giving the tabernacle instructions to Moses. This story is a crucial layer to understanding how the building of the tabernacle (the “tent of meeting”) weaves into the theme of seventh-day rest.Exodus 24:1-11Then he said to Moses, “Come up to the Lord, you and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel, and worship from afar. Moses alone shall come near to the Lord, but the others shall not come near, and the people shall not come up with him.”Moses came and told the people all the words of the Lord and all the rules. And all the people answered with one voice and said, “All the words that the Lord has spoken we will do.” And Moses wrote down all the words of the Lord. He rose early in the morning and built an altar at the foot of the mountain, and twelve pillars, according to the twelve tribes of Israel. And he sent young men of the people of Israel, who offered burnt offerings and sacrificed peace offerings of oxen to the Lord. And Moses took half of the blood and put it in basins, and half of the blood he threw against the altar. Then he took the Book of the Covenant and read it in the hearing of the people. And they said, “All that the Lord has spoken we will do, and we will be obedient.” And Moses took the blood and threw it on the people and said, “Behold the blood of the covenant that the Lord has made with you in accordance with all these words.”Then Moses and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel went up, and they saw the God of Israel. There was under his feet as it were a pavement of sapphire stone, like the very heaven for clearness. And he did not lay his hand on the chief men of the people of Israel; they beheld God, and ate and drank.In part 4 (36:30-49:50), Tim continues the story in Exodus 24.Exodus 24:12-18The Lord said to Moses, “Come up to me on the mountain and wait there, that I may give you the tablets of stone, with the law and the commandment, which I have written for their instruction.” So Moses rose with his assistant Joshua, and Moses went up into the mountain of God. And he said to the elders, “Wait here for us until we return to you. And behold, Aaron and Hur are with you. Whoever has a dispute, let him go to them.” Then Moses went up on the mountain, and the cloud covered the mountain. The glory of the Lord dwelt on Mount Sinai, and the cloud covered it six days. And on the seventh day he called to Moses out of the midst of the cloud. Now the appearance of the glory of the Lord was like a devouring fire on the top of the mountain in the sight of the people of Israel. Moses entered the cloud and went up on the mountain. And Moses was on the mountain forty days and forty nights.Tim notes that the theme of sixth and seventh day is now clearly established. God appears to Moses on the seventh day.Here in Exodus 25-31, God presents Moses with the plans for the tabernacle. These plans are dispensed in seven speeches by God.[1] “And YHWH spoke to Moses, saying…” [Exodus 25:1][2] “And YHWH spoke to Moses, saying…” [Exodus 30:11][3] “And YHWH spoke to Moses, saying…” [Exodus 30:17][4] “And YHWH spoke to Moses, saying…” [Exodus 30:22][5] “And YHWH spoke to Moses, saying…” [Exodus 30:34][6] “And YHWH spoke to Moses, saying…” [Exodus 31:1][7] “And YHWH spoke to Moses, saying…” [Exodus 31:12]The seventh and final act of speech covers the Sabbath.After this, in Exodus 40, the completion of the tabernacle is given with seven statements of Moses completing the work God commanded him.Exodus 40:17-18aAnd it came about in the beginning month, in the second year, on the first of the month, the tabernacle was set up (הוקם), and Moses set up (ותקם) the tabernacle…[1] “…just as Yahweh commanded Moses” [Exodus 40:19][2] “…just as Yahweh commanded Moses” [Exodus 40:21][3] “…just as Yahweh commanded Moses” [Exodus 40:23][4] “…just as Yahweh commanded Moses” [Exodus 40:25][5] “…just as Yahweh commanded Moses” [Exodus 40:27][6] “…just as Yahweh commanded Moses” [Exodus 40:29][7] “…just as Yahweh commanded Moses” [Exodus 40:32]“And Moses completed (ויכל) the work (המלאכה)” [Exodus 40:33b]Tim cites scholar Howard Wallace to make the following point:“The structuring of the narrative in Exodus 25-40 binds the Sabbath observance closely with the construction of the sanctuary. Both are tightly connected with the question of the presence of Yahweh with his people…. The Sabbath is a significant element in the celebration of the presence of Yahweh with his people. Just as the tabernacle was built along lines specified by divine decree, so too in the sequence is the human sabbath institution modeled on the divine pattern. Since the tabernacle, which is patterned on the divine plan, reveals the presence and shares in the role of the heavenly temple to proclaim the sovereignty of Israel’s God, so the Sabbath shares in the proclamation of the sovereignty of Yahweh.”(Howard Wallace, “Creation and Sabbath in Genesis 2:1-3,” 246.)Tim also shares a quote from Rabbi Abraham Heschel.“The sabbath is to time what the temple and tabernacle are to space. The sabbath is a cathedral in time. On the seventh day we experience in time what the tabernacle and temple represented as spaces which is eternal life, God in the complete creation.”(The Sabbath, Abraham Joshua Heschel)In part 5 (49:50-end), the guys finish up their conversation. Tim notes that the cliffhanger at the end of Exodus is that Moses and all of Israel have successfully built the tabernacle (or the tent of meeting) and God then comes to dwell in it, to meet with Israel. But when he does, his presence is too intense, and Moses is unable to go in. So what will happen? Find out next week when we turn to Numbers and Leviticus.Thank you to all our supporters!
