Meme thief is a serious crime and when a fb factchecker gets their hands on them it gets complicated.  But this one is worthy:

For the earth shall be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the LORD, as the memes cover the sea.

There is a lot to absorb in that post. They say that a good poem should be read through mutiple times before an opinion is formed.

What’s delightful is the language mix and merge going on:

The Hebrew word for a meme is adopted from the English, which is a word invented in part from the Greek, from which we get mimic, mime, etc.

At the same time, the Hebrew word for water is mayim, which is the meaning of the letter mem — the same spelling as “meme”.

A common metaphor for the Torah is water.

And the odd idiom for holding onto a secret is “Mum’s the word!”, but there’s the sense of... the surest way to spread the word, is to tell people not to tell.

This is a fun trail and parallel tracks:

Keep silent; i.e. act dumb.

There are all kinds of fun little word adventures out there. It doesn’t take long to know who’s really in charge, one with a twinkle in His eye and a spring in His step. 🤠
