People are trapped in the Physical and that is why the Divine is strange to them

Well, certainly to MOST people!

Deuteronomy 32:8 When the Most High divided to the nations their inheritance, when he separated the sons of Adam, he set the bounds of the people according to the number of the children of Israel.

9 For the LORD's portion is his people; Jacob is the lot of his inheritance.

...

12 So the LORD alone did lead him, and there was no strange god with him.

Moses said to God, “Suppose I go to the Israelites and say to them, ‘The God of your fathers has sent me to you,’ and they ask me, ‘What is his name?’ Then what shall I tell them?”

14 God said to Moses, “I AM WHO I AM.[c] This is what you are to say to the Israelites: ‘I AM has sent me to you.’”

15 God also said to Moses, “Say to the Israelites, ‘The LORD,[d] the God of your fathers—the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob—has sent me to you.’

Moses encountered the *Divine* as he was in the Physical.

If the majority of Israelites encountered what Moses did, they would of rejected *I AM WHO I AM* as it would of been strange....

Jesus said...The Kingdom of GOD has come to you, yet you fail to recognize it....
