The Law of Jealousy
What the Bible actually says about Abortion
The Test for an Unfaithful Wife (Numbers 5:11–31)
This is what the Bible says about abortion.
11 Then the LORD said to Moses,
12 “Speak to the Israelites and say to them: ‘If a man’s wife goes astray and is unfaithful to him
13 so that another man has sexual relations with her, and this is hidden from her husband and her impurity is undetected (since there is no witness against her and she has not been caught in the act),
14 and if feelings of jealousy come over her husband and he suspects his wife and she is impure — or if he is jealous and suspects her even though she is not impure —
15 then he is to take his wife to the priest. He must also take an offering of a tenth of an ephah of barley flour on her behalf. He must not pour olive oil on it or put incense on it, because it is a grain offering for jealousy, a reminder-offering to draw attention to wrongdoing.
16 “ ‘The priest shall bring her and have her stand before the LORD.
17 Then he shall take some holy water in a clay jar and put some dust from the tabernacle floor into the water.
18 After the priest has had the woman stand before the LORD, he shall loosen her hair and place in her hands the reminder-offering, the grain offering for jealousy, while he himself holds the bitter water that brings a curse.
19 Then the priest shall put the woman under oath and say to her, “If no other man has had sexual relations with you and you have not gone astray and become impure while married to your husband, may this bitter water that brings a curse not harm you.
20 But if you have gone astray while married to your husband and you have made yourself impure by having sexual relations with a man other than your husband” —
21 here the priest is to put the woman under this curse — “may the LORD cause you to become a curse among your people when he makes your womb miscarry and your abdomen swell.
22 May this water that brings a curse enter your body so that your abdomen swells or your womb miscarries.” “ ‘Then the woman is to say, “Amen. So be it.”
23 “ ‘The priest is to write these curses on a scroll and then wash them off into the bitter water.
24 He shall make the woman drink the bitter water that brings a curse, and this water that brings a curse and causes bitter suffering will enter her.
25 The priest is to take from her hands the grain offering for jealousy, wave it before the LORD and bring it to the altar.
26 The priest is then to take a handful of the grain offering as a memorial offering and burn it on the altar; after that, he is to have the woman drink the water.
27 If she has made herself impure and been unfaithful to her husband, this will be the result: When she is made to drink the water that brings a curse and causes bitter suffering, it will enter her, her abdomen will swell and her womb will miscarry, and she will become a curse.
28 If, however, the woman has not made herself impure, but is clean, she will be cleared of guilt and will be able to have children.
29 “ ‘This, then, is the law of jealousy when a woman goes astray and makes herself impure while married to her husband,
30 or when feelings of jealousy come over a man because he suspects his wife. The priest is to have her stand before the LORD and is to apply this entire law to her.
31 The husband will be innocent of any wrongdoing, but the woman will bear the consequences of her sin.’ ”
Ladies, if you serve this God, you are subject to the law of jealousy of your husband — who, without evidence, can drag you before the priest (court) and bring about a miscarriage. The bible supports miscarriage: don’t let any right-wing pro-lifer tell you otherwise — the Bible is on your side.
Pro-life?
This god isn’t opposed to abortion: HE INVENTED IT!
The great book of myths shows not only that this god supports abortion, but that he is actually a baby killer.
What kind of sick god orders children to be murdered?
Oh, yeah, that’s right — the god of the Bible. From the holy book of lies:
“This is what the LORD Almighty says: ‘I will punish the Amalekites for what they did to Israel when they waylaid them as they came up from Egypt. Now go, attack the Amalekites and totally destroy all that belongs to them. Do not spare them; put to death men and women, children and infants, cattle and sheep, camels and donkeys.’
1 Samuel 15:2,3
If your god murders children and babies — and even sheep — it may be a good time to consider finding a new god.
If you believe that kind of god is a loving god, you might benefit from psychiatric help.
Clinging to this type of belief system is part of the reason we have so many guns and murders: too many people in this country believe it is their holy duty to kill others this god doesn’t approve of.
That is sick.
In the book of Hosea, the murdering god of the Old Testament is angry again— a continuing theme of this god: he is routinely angry and killing people. Is it any wonder so many Americans act like this?
Here, The Great Baby Killer decides to take out his anger on those who turned their back on him: he is insanely jealous, which portends a serious mental health issue.
“The people of Samaria must bear their guilt, because they have rebelled against their God. They will fall by the sword; their little ones will be dashed to the ground, their pregnant women ripped open.”
Hosea 13:16
I know that in all the years I attended church I never once heard any of these verses: not one time did pastors or priests ever talk about the murderous rage that comes over this god. He kills whoever he wants for often no reason other than they were in the neighborhood.
My last verse today covers another temper tantrum by The Great Brute. This time, one of his prophets is leaving a town where he had been preaching. Here’s the scene:
From there Elisha went up to Bethel. As he was walking along the road, some boys came out of the town and jeered at him. “Get out of here, baldy!” they said. “Get out of here, baldy!”
2 Kings 2:23
So, some boys called a man baldy and for that, God murdered forty-two boys!
I guess in the days before AR15s, this was how mass-murders were committed.
All in the name of God.
The problem I have with Epicurus is that he missed one simple fact:
God is the evil in this world.
