Thank you Ezekiel. I didn’t know that.
Your explanation helped.
I agree with your conclusion also.
Much is written in the Jewish traditions about the righteous (the "Tzaddik") being the foundation of the world, based on this verse:
Proverbs 10:25 As the whirlwind passeth, so is the wicked no more: but the righteous is an everlasting foundation.
Ties in with Joseph who is known as Yosef haTzaddik.
Righteousness is based on Truth... objective truth 'with a capital T', not that situational ethics nonsense.
A parable is a likeness, an allegory. A trump is a victory not based on a greater number of troops, but on outwitting an opponent - utilizing resources and accessing channels that the enemy cannot (cf. David vs. Goliath).
Matthew 13:34-35 All these things spake Jesus unto the multitude in parables; and without a parable spake he not unto them: 35 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying, I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter things which have been kept secret from the foundation of the world.
Truth with a capital T, coming up from the foundation of the world:
Foundations, buildings, a real estate developer...you really can't make this stuff up.
No wonder the dark side is freaking out. It's about time.
