The moon god manufactures them as needed.The fact that they sound like escapees from a sheltered workshop shows what an inept god he is.
I thought they were Hebrews.
Get real, this gold (if any was left) was long gone, stolen by the Assyrians, Babylonians, his Egyptian ancestors as well as the Greeks, Romans and Muslim Empires, and possibly Crusaders..
Yup.
The Jews should send this guy a bill for 300 years of slave labor.
-—Egyptians must compensate the Hebrews for below minimum wage work expended on the pyramids.——
The Hebrews of the Old Testament did not build the pyramids...
...and they did not work for wages...
They were slaves...
Besides that I agree with your post....!
Reparations, ain’t ya never heard of reparations?
mosses wasn’t much of a navigator was he?
In principle, no different at all from American blacks demanding reparations for slavery.
I agree with this...if the Egyptians can provide an inventory of their lost property. And if the ARE can prove continuity with the pharaonic regime.
What I’m trying to say is...good luck with that.
My understanding of the Hebrew's Old Testament records is that the Egyptians were encouraging a hasty departure by paying the Hebrews to leave and leave quickly.
I also understand the Egyptians later reconsidered their decision but it did not work well for them.
Exactly. They gotta ask IS for it now. Would love to see how that would turn out....
Fine. Then pay the Jews for all the years they were slaves. THEY were owed the gold for slavery and God made sure they were paid.
What a ding-dong.
America has some free black citizens seeking reparations for less than 80 years of slavery some of their black ancestors suffered under in the 16 States who sanctioned slavery.
Hard to be a good navigator in the vast wasteland of a desert. Everything looks the same.
But, that was not the point of the story in the Bible.
The premise was that the 'tribes' were 'lost' because they kept walking in a circle around the same mountain.
They were 'stiff-necked'. This meant they didn't turn their head to notice that the same mountain was over the same shoulder all the time. The point was that they were STUBBORN and refused to listen. They didn't even want to listen to Moses. They blamed HIM for their own stubborn ignorance.
These folks are nuts!
Makes about as much sense as black reparations.
I am all in favor of getting reparations from those that sold them.
“Moses, Moses, everyone talks about Moses, he lead us around in the desert for forty years and took us to the one place in the Middle East that doesn’t have oil.” - Golda Meir
Stiff necked? Bent on going one direction aimlessly?
Sounds like NASCAR.

Perhaps they should sue some descendants of the Prophet (PTUI) for all the losses incurred RE their antiquities that fellow Arabs either looted or destroyed over the years ...
