If by “Rome” you mean most of Italy (not counting local patois, creoles and like that) that’s my understanding too.
God didn’t choose her for nothing

Miriam's role was not her characteristics or value, 1. Miriam is a daughter who has no brothers 2. Joseph is descended from King David. 3. The inheritance exception granted for the daughters of Zelophehad 4. If a woman who has no brothers marries a man of the same tribe 5. Joseph and Miriam are married (each descended from King David)
shalom b'SHEM Yah'shua HaMashiach Adonai
but her bloodlines to King David,
having no brothers and
the exception started by
the daughters of Zelophehad.
There are five things that are important here:
and is descended from King David.
But he is from a line prohibited to inherit.
(These were daughters who had no brothers)
is in effect (Numbers 26, 27, 36; Joshua 17; 1 Chronicles 7).
She can inherit forever.
thus providing Miriam with permanent inheritance
of the Kingship of David for her to pass on to her son Yah'shua (Messiahship).
Yep!
I like Donne a lot, but I think George Herbert was my favorite among the Metaphysicals!
very cool X, thanks
It is all going to go back to one thing and only one thing. Either you have Faith in Jesus Christ and believe the Gospel or you don't. Bringing Mary into it or any of the other stuff won't help you. It may make you feel better but in the end it is only by Grace Alone through Faith Alone in Christ Alone that we are saved.
Done has more wit and beauty of language. Herbert has soul.
I admire Donne enormously, but I love Herbert! (Even named my cat for him after college!)
Well I fell into american lit, Emerson etc. My friends tho forced me to accompany them to taverns and I was not the scholar I should have been, there towards the end.
When thou hast Done thou hast not Donne, [unless Dawg is doing the typing]
I got some kind of award for my discourse on To a Flea
It's such a shame you don't see the irreconcilable contradiction between these two sentences.
I guess they were more into seventeenth century than American! If they were eighteenth century, it would have been coffee houses, which might have made the studying easier! ;-)
lol
JUDITH ANNE: I'm down wid dat.
What's the point of the magisterium's "interpretation" if you can bring your own understanding to the Bible's meaning?
Catholics clearly are told they must accept the magisterium's interpretation of Scripture, regardless of when or even if they ever get around to reading the Bible themselves.
Thus many Catholics don't read the Bible because they prefer to read the catechism and what the magisterium tells them the Bible says which is what you just high-fived.
When a Catholic finally does get around to reading Bible, the rolls of the Protestant churches grow, by the grace of God alone.
I didn't think it was only Catholics who posted prayer request threads -- or posted on them that they certainly would pray as requested. I was sure I've seen screen names of Protestants . . .
Amen, brother.
Mary would be ashamed of what has been taught in her name.
I'm going to try to be serious here a minute. Whaddya mean, "... won't help you?" It SOUNDS like all that life in Christ is about is getting one's ticket punched on the Holy Land Express. Either you have the ticket or you don't. If you do, cool, that's it.
From MY POV — and another "envious sprite" will call this self-congratulatory — there's way more going on here than admission through the platform turnstile. I don't go to Mass or read my Bible and my office or pray my Rosary or study or discuss or attempt the occasional good work to "get to heaven". I do it to enjoy God and all He has done and is doing, and to enjoy Him more fully, in Himself and in His saints who "make Him glorious" (in the sense that one way He shows His glory is in the works he does in the saints.)
If the only "help" is getting one's ticket punched, then maybe this isn't help. But it's good, it's from God, and I'm not stopping.
