    There is clearly more than one view of David in the Book of Samuel. There's praise and glorification, and there's criticism. In the past, bible scholars tried to explain the two or more views by saying it was impossible to shut down the criticism when so many people knew about it: either at Solomon's court (when scholars still believed in Solomon's wealth), or after Northerners fled to Judah not to be exiled by Assyrians. Why would Judahites in Babylonian exile tell a story with so many different views, instead of settling on critique or on glorification, like the Chronicler?

    Do you know who the historical Uriah the Hittite was? I’m looking to find the true history of the man or at least as accurate as humanly possible. I was thinking that Solomon probably visited the grave of Uriah, the Hittite, and somehow that information will not be lost because he is related to Uriah the Hittite by his brother, who died the son of David and Bathsheba

      The father of at least 6 children he was a cross-dresser all this life and at the end of his life was (stuck?) half-way between male and female. I read he had one breast implant. He died in prison after being arrested for public nuisance, or something like that. He was held in the woman's jail for a few days awaiting bail hearing. He died the night before the hearing with $6 million in the bank and nobody at his side. Hemingway said and wrote Mr Gig as he was called was the closest of his sons in temperament to him - especially as he had a dark side. Hemingway, as Gregory notes himself in this memoir, desperately wanted a daughter when his third and last son was born. I was a disappointment from the start, I think he said.

    Thanks, I agree that Chronicles, at the end of the Hebrew canonical ordering, thus ends OT Scripture with Israel awaiting a son of David to restore the unity of northern (Samaritans) with southern (Judaeans) Israel. And we see this pan-Israelite ideology of the Chronicler manifesting in the fulfillments depicted in Luke-Acts and John, which show the work of Jesus resulting in unity of all Israel (both Judaeans and Samaritans) before Israel incorporates the nations (according to the messianic reunification paradigm seen throughout the prophets).

    Great book, easy to read and very well explained. While I don't agree with everything he says, the patterns in the biblical narrative that Hazony draws out make sense. If you read the Bible purely philosophically in the way that Hazony pushes (although I don't think he really thinks this), you miss a lot of the surface narrative, however if you take the Bible as multi-layered, then Hazony's ideas not only make sense, but are compelling. He offers a fresh way of reading passages that draws out deeper meaning. I personally think that a lot of what he says is really interesting. I particularly like the way that he doesn't press his own views, but simply looks at a set of passages, draws links between them, and offers explanations of what they mean when viewed together. I recommend you buy his book, even if you reject everything he says, it'll make you fall in love with scripture again.

Humanity is the crown of God's creation - unique among all things - possessing the most unique and supernatural attribute of free will. Our individual free will is an image of God's own transcendent free will. Without it - we would never be able to create anything and would be nothing more than primitive beasts - slaves to the circumstances of the created world (just like Cain). Instead, like our creator whom we are made in the image of, we possess a creative spirit that comes from our ability to think and speak into existence new, novel ideas that otherwise could not and would not come into existence following any natural process.

    Can absolute simultaneity be restored without abandoning Einstein's 1905 false constant-speed-of-light postulate? Yes - Einsteinians know no limits. Julian Barbour and Lee Smolin have found it profitable to trade the relativity of time for a relativity of size: www2.warwick.ac.uk/fac/cross_fac/ias/earlycareer/events/time/programme/julian_barbour.pdf Aspects of Time, Julian Barbour, Warwick, August 24th 2011: "Was Spacetime Glorious Historical Accident? Time will not be fused with space but emerge from the timeless shape dynamics of space. Absolute simultaneity restored!" www.leif.org/EOS/PT-Lee-Smolin-2014.pdf Lee Smolin: "What, then, is one to make of the relativity of simultaneity in special and general relativity? Doesn't the experimental success of relativity imply that time's passage is a chimera, so that all that is real is the whole history of the universe laid out at once? That point of view, the block-universe perspective, led Albert Einstein to declare in a letter to the family of his friend Michele Besso that the "distinction between past, present, and future is only a stubbornly persistent illusion." A reformulation of general relativity called shape dynamics resolves the quandary posed in the previous paragraph. The theory trades in the relativity of time for a relativity of size but does not give up any of the experimental successes of special and general relativity." www.amazon.com/The-Singular-Universe-Reality-Time/dp/1107074061 The Singular Universe and the Reality of Time, Roberto Mangabeira Unger, Harvard Law School, Massachusetts, Lee Smolin, Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics, Canada, pp. 386-387: "In general relativity two clocks traveling different paths through spacetime will not stay synchronized. But their sizes will be preserved... (...) But the amazing thing is you can get to general relativity by trading the relativity of time of that theory for a relativity of spacial scale... (...) The resulting theory is called shape dynamics. (...) This means that there is now a physical meaning to the simultaneity of distant events."

  • @-Pentcho-Valev

    Lee Smolin and Roberto Unger may liberate mankind from Einstein's "dead wrong" concept of time (which is a deductive consequence of Einstein's 1905 false constant-speed-of-light postulate) and restore the Newtonian universal time: www.fqxi.org/community/articles/display/148 "Many physicists argue that time is an illusion. Lee Smolin begs to differ. (...) Smolin wishes to hold on to the reality of time. But to do so, he must overcome a major hurdle: General and special relativity seem to imply the opposite. In the classical Newtonian view, physics operated according to the ticking of an invisible universal clock. But Einstein threw out that master clock when, in his theory of special relativity, he argued that no two events are truly simultaneous unless they are causally related. If simultaneity - the notion of "now" - is relative, the universal clock must be a fiction, and time itself a proxy for the movement and change of objects in the universe. Time is literally written out of the equation. Although he has spent much of his career exploring the facets of a "timeless" universe, Smolin has become convinced that this is "deeply wrong," he says. He now believes that time is more than just a useful approximation, that it is as real as our guts tell us it is - more real, in fact, than space itself. The notion of a "real and global time" is the starting hypothesis for Smolin's new work, which he will undertake this year with two graduate students supported by a $47,500 grant from FQXi." www.guardian.co.uk/books/2013/jun/10/time-reborn-farewell-reality-review "And by making the clock's tick relative - what happens simultaneously for one observer might seem sequential to another - Einstein's theory of special relativity not only destroyed any notion of absolute time but made time equivalent to a dimension in space: the future is already out there waiting for us; we just can't see it until we get there. This view is a logical and metaphysical dead end, says Smolin." www.amazon.com/Time-Reborn-Crisis-Physics-Universe/dp/0547511728 "Was Einstein wrong? At least in his understanding of time, Smolin argues, the great theorist of relativity was dead wrong. What is worse, by firmly enshrining his error in scientific orthodoxy, Einstein trapped his successors in insoluble dilemmas..." www.abc.net.au/radionational/programs/philosopherszone/4985740 "But our everyday intuitive sense - the Newtonian realist position - still has backers, scientific and philosophical. Enter the philosopher-physicist team of Roberto Unger and Lee Smolin. (...) Along with Lee Smolin, Unger is concentrating on a book with the draft title, The Singular Universe and the Reality of Time. They hope to lob it into the debate sometime next year..."

      @@georgechristiansen6785 This is not an assumption. To understand why Cain's offering was rejected you need to understand tithes and offerings in the rest of scripture where it explains the accepted and rejected offerings. But for the text to prove it is here: "Abel also brought of the firstborn of his flock and of their fat." But it doesn't say that Cain brought his first and best of his fruit. We can't pick out one section and isolate it from the rest of the Word, we need to look at the entirety of Scripture to have a deeper understanding. The only assumption made here was by Yarom Hazony about why Cain's offering was rejected. Nowhere does it say in that piece of scripture or anywhere else in scripture that we should be innovative and choose different (more lazy) careers or that our occupation matters in any way or to even do anything contrary to what God told us to do. In fact the entire Bible is telling us otherwise... to obey God - all of His Word with all our heart, mind and soul. That is to truly love Him. Hope this clarifies it for you :) May God bless you.

    Here's a suggestion for understanding why God approved of Abel's sacrifice and despised Cain's. Genesis clearly says that Abel offered the "firstlings" and "fat portions" of his flock, while it says Cain offered "fruits of the earth" only. I suggest that the proper contrast is located not in the matter but in the *quality* of the offerings, and hence, the intent of the offerers.
