I\u2019ve written about this in another essay<\/a> so I had intended to point that out here and move on.\u00a0 But with the NET online open to Leviticus 5<\/a> and the Hebrew text open in the right column I clicked on \u05d0\u05d5 at the beginning of verse 2 (Hebrew reads right to left).\u00a0 The occurrences of \u05d0\u05d5 lit up down the right column in Hebrew and their translations lit up down the left column in the English text of the NET.\u00a0 The highlighted instances of \u05d0\u05d5 seemed to bind the verses together.\u00a0 How did I decide that verse 1 could stand apart from the others?\u00a0 It was the only verse with then he will bear his punishment for iniquity<\/em> (Tanakh: then he shall bear his iniquity<\/em>).<\/p>\n

It piqued my interest enough to study deeper so I looked at the Septuagint.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Leviticus 4:22 (English Elpenor)<\/a><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

But if he sins and does unintentionally one of any of the commandments of the Lord their God, which shall not be done, and sins and is in error<\/td>\nAnd if a ruler sin, and break one of all the commands of the Lord his God, [doing the thing] which ought not to be done, unwillingly, and shall sin and trespass<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

So where do I stand?<\/p>\n

The brothers\u2019 imprisonment for three days and Simeon\u2019s (Genesis 42:24<\/a>) longer incarceration certainly qualify as punishment<\/em>.\u00a0 That punishment, however, came from Joseph, a ruler in Egypt, not God.\u00a0 I\u2019m not insensitive to the question, who but God could orchestrate such a circumstance in real life?\u00a0 And I wonder if Joseph\u2019s brothers would ever have recognized their guilt or borne their iniquity apart from this distress<\/em>?\u00a0 So I can accept that a part of bearing one\u2019s iniquity is accepting the punishment meted out by human authorities, pay the fine, do the time up to and including forfeiting one\u2019s freedom or life.\u00a0 Paul wrote (Romans 13:1-7 NET):<\/p>\n

Let every person be subject to the governing authorities. \u00a0For there is no authority except by[5]<\/sup><\/a><\/em> God\u2019s appointment, and the authorities[6]<\/sup><\/a><\/em> that exist have been instituted by God.[7]<\/sup><\/a><\/em> \u00a0So the person who resists such authority resists the ordinance of God, and those who resist will incur[8]<\/sup><\/a><\/em> judgment (for rulers cause no fear for good[9]<\/sup><\/a><\/em> conduct[10]<\/sup><\/a><\/em> but for bad[11]<\/sup><\/a><\/em>). \u00a0Do you desire not to fear authority? \u00a0Do good and you will receive its commendation because it is God\u2019s servant for your well-being. \u00a0But be afraid if you do wrong because government does not bear the sword for nothing. \u00a0It is God\u2019s servant to administer punishment (\u1f40\u03c1\u03b3\u1f74\u03bd, a form of \u1f40\u03c1\u03b3\u03ae<\/a>)<\/em> on the person who does wrong. \u00a0Therefore it is necessary to be in subjection, not only because of the wrath (\u1f40\u03c1\u03b3\u1f74\u03bd, a form of \u1f40\u03c1\u03b3\u03ae)<\/em> of the authorities but also because of your conscience. \u00a0For this reason you also pay taxes, for the authorities are God\u2019s servants devoted to governing. \u00a0Pay[12]<\/sup><\/a><\/em> everyone what is owed: taxes to whom taxes are due, revenue to whom revenue is due, respect to whom respect is due, honor to whom honor is due.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I don\u2019t take this to mean that the punishment <\/em>or wrath <\/em>of these servants is necessarily just in an absolute sense or in my opinion.\u00a0 I consider the public curse the princes <\/em>and elders <\/em>enacted in the book of Ezra<\/a> as an example.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n

\u201cAnyone who does not come within three days, as the council of the rulers and the elders demands\u2014all his property will be anathematized, and he himself banned from the assembly of the exile.\u201d<\/td>\nEvery one who shall not arrive within three days, as [is] the counsel of the rulers and the elders, all his substance shall be forfeited, and he shall be separated from the congregation of the captivity.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

I was educated in public schools in the United States of America from the late fifties through the early seventies, taught that government of, by and for the people<\/a> was predicated on limiting the power of authorities <\/em>over the people.\u00a0 The dictatorships of the twentieth century were considered anachronistic aberrations not counter trends to the relatively ineffective governance of a free society.\u00a0 So this proclamation <\/em>sounds fascist to me, though the law\u2014he shall bear his iniquity<\/em>\u2014would uphold it as I am currently understanding the law.\u00a0 What the laws do not record is what might become of the man who in good conscience could not divorce<\/a> his foreign wife, suffered the loss of his property and wandered in exile from Israel.<\/p>\n

The religious mind wants to believe that such a man is forever doomed.\u00a0 But the religious mind is itself barely a step removed from atheism.\u00a0 It may well call someone or something god<\/em>, but believes wholeheartedly that it’s\u00a0god <\/em>functions only through it’s systems of control, systems which must be maintained at all costs (John 11:45-50<\/a>).\u00a0 It is unwilling to believe that a man wandering from the faith<\/em>, so to speak, of his native religious system\u2014like Abram (Genesis 12:1-25:11<\/a>), Isaac (Genesis 26:1-27:46<\/a>) or Jacob (Genesis 28:1-35:29<\/a>) for example (even Hagar [Genesis 21:1-21<\/a>])\u2014could possibly encounter a true and living God full of mercy and grace for those who seek Him.\u00a0 And it has no conception of what might become of a foreign-born wife impacted by his mercy and grace.<\/p>\n

And here my religious mind is screaming: How could anyone be expected to figure all this out<\/a>?!\u00a0 Frankly, those who have received Jesus<\/a> are not required to understand.\u00a0 We are required (Romans 8:12-17<\/a>) to live by the Spirit and <\/em>[we] will not carry out the desires of the flesh<\/a><\/em>.[13]<\/sup><\/a>\u00a0 For the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness<\/a>, and self-control. \u00a0Against such things there is no law<\/em>.[14]<\/sup><\/a><\/p>\n
