Next Year (coram) and Maimonides + Hartman 'law'

 NEXT YEAR (coram) I’ll do a short Question and Answer form of ‘The Next Thousand Years A Prayer. This year I’ll continue with applying the Meyers’ Five to Maimonides and (modifiedly) Greg Hartman’s ‘New Testament Imperativity’. I’ll also add Beatitudes to THEEEOS at the end. PMMHMPPP.

We should note that the king in ancient Israel was required to write ‘the law’ in his own hand. This resulted in the king getting into his mind and actions the geist/gist/essence of the law.  This is shown by Solomon’s decision in the case of two harlots and one baby. The gist of the matter was that the true mother wanted the baby to live.

Now to Maimonides. Dividing 613 by 42, we get 348 done, so we pick one from 349-362. I’ll do #359 ‘To follow the procedure of the peace offering — Lev. 7:11’. What did it mean THEN individually, corporately, how as it FULFILLED in/by Jesus, what does it mean NOW corporately, individually. First, they were in a time of priesthood. In that time, they were given commands to obey exactly, in order that they might be taught. As I’ve said, the king was to apply the gist, and new we are in a prophet stage. We eat the peace offering as members of the heavenly council, as prophets. Some have crackers, some have grape juice, some do not have a loaf. Some have one prayer only. We should strive toward being better, and toward better understanding.

Now Greg Hartman’s ‘Imperativity’. We should say first that some maintain that declaratives ad imperatives, thus Matthew 25:31-46. OK, 256 done, choose

from 257-264. We modify Meyers by asking, ‘What has changed in 2000 years?’. The best example is ‘authorities’ in Romans 13: 2. #260 Phil. 3:15. ‘…perfect…’ Others mayelucidate us with word studies, but I will go with ‘maturity’. A pattern in the Bible is that GodTrinity is growing us. He gives the redeemed new typs of Holy War to fight, for our maturity. (The church body is the new temple, I hold, and how we should act is a way of reinforcing the building). So we should ask, what types of Holy War is GodTrinity giving us NOW for our maturation? There are man that are coming, from social media, to AI, to food, to governance…
