49 Tribes--Breakthrough Toward Peace!

49 Tribes—Breakthrough Toward Peace!

I’ve been trying to help midwife ‘A 7^th Layer of Social Order.’

How?  By psalmodically responding to ‘everything’.

This is similar to the process Solomon used.  He had to write the whole Torah in his own hand. That ‘primed’ him, in Gladwell’s ‘Blink’ terms. This worked because when he was confronted with his first recorded judgment, the case of the two harlots and one baby, he made the right decision.  Remember, there were no specifics that related to this case in the Torah.  He had to get the gist, the Spirit.  He ‘blinked’. He psalmodically responded.

Now, Jordan’s six are Tribes, Nations, Cosmopolitan, Church, Christian State, University. The last 3 are parallel to the first three, in a Father, Son, Holy Ghost sequence, I aver.

What’s next?  A hint may be this: JBJ says we are in Jeremiah Time, we are waiting.  And in the Decalogue, the Sabbath word (rest!) comes after the first 3 Words (non-Lutheran, non-Roman Catholic). And Israel went into Exile because She did not give the land rest.  Thus, we are in Rest, we are in the 4^th Word.

What will come next?  Well, JBJ says that the 5^th and 8^th Words relate to Adam’s sin in the Garden. He dishonored the Father (5^th Word), by stealing (8^th Word) the fruit. 

Thus, something honoring one’s father and mother would fit.  Thus, Godparents for Eldsters. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MTmNj56vF_A (Click on ‘See More’ for additional information at links)

Now to Rosenstock.  His sequence is Tribes, Empires, Israel, Greece then (Greece being a companion, never a social order He Who Reversed The Trend), the Church glorified Israel by getting rid of exclusiveness, and the Nation-State glorified the Empires by getting rid of slavery, and now we are tasked with the 7^th Layer Of Social Order, something that will glorify the Tribes by getting rid of perpetual warfare, while keeping the small, enthusiastic groups.

I PROPOSE 49 TRIBES, IN JBJ’S 7X7 49-BOOK ‘JUBILEE’ MATRIX. Here’s JBJ’s original article: http://www.biblicalhorizons.com/biblical-horizons/no-80-rethinking-the-order-of-the-old-testament/

Why 49, why peace, etc.  Well, there’s a connection between Jesus’ words in Luke 4, and the Jubilee. ²¹ And he began to say unto them, This day is this scripture fulfilled in your ears. I claim that this refers to Isaiah 61, and back to Leviticus 25, Jubilee.

So we see 49 books, and 49 years before another Jubilee.

A small detour. We’ll connect everything later. Remember that we are trying to put 49 tribes into a Jubilee/Peace framework. Rosenstock: Peace is the explicit reconciliation of opposites.

We detour through the Warriors of Light process to get to 49 Tribes. Here’s Warriors of Light: http://chuckhartmanhistoryconductor.blogspot.com/2012/05/warriors-of-light-pentecost-d-2012.html

After some connection to medieval cathedrals being used as solar observatories via holes put into the roof, and the marking of where the sun shone on the floor throughout the year, we move to individual in the congregation being formed up as light.

The idea is that each will look at the sermon’s light through the lens of one of these 49 books, write a short commentary, and a book will in that way be written. This is very useful for evangelism, and for one anothering one another in sharing wisdom, as each become more of an expert on his or her book.

[If anyone thinks this is too difficult, I will conduct this battle/symphony for oh so small a fee, and it will have many more benefits, as you may read below.]

One of these benefits is monetization. Generally, we will use the techniques of Switzer and others.  Each participant will receive shares.  We call these 49ths.  Now, we will pay others for doing things in ‘49ths,’ and this would seem to decrease the money/currency coming to the first participants, but NOT IF WHAT THESE OTHERS DO INCREASES THE TOTAL REVENUE MORE. I’d keep control, this will be a ‘new’ form of ‘group-making and –operating’. More in another paper.

Now, the BIG reason for these warriors, each with his/her own lens/book, is to make ‘A Full Count Of The Peace/Jubilee Times’.  Hat tip, E. T. Hall’s ‘Silent Language,’ in which he has a 10x10 chart that describes a society.  Our 7x7 chart will make 49 ‘tribes,’ and put them into one 7x7 field of jubilee/peace.

If the tribes don’t exist yet, we’ll make a full count of them by creating new ones.  We already have the vision of a society based on the Bible, and the Jubilee, toward Peace, but it’s not yet finished.

[This is the type of ‘blinking’ that Solomon did, I pray, and that the art experts in Gladwell’s book ‘Blink’ did, as they were confronted with a statue and asked ‘Is it a fake?’  They had gut reactions, they knew but it was articulated in, for example, a blurting out of ‘I hope you haven’t paid for this yet!,’ or having a glass wall come between the art expert and the statue. I ‘blink’ this 7x7’.]

You ask, do I have an example, a seed, a start?  Yes, two. JBJ has said that Moby Dick is a commentary on Leviticus.  OK, we have an art work.  We don’t have a tribe.  But, though I’m ‘blinking’—articulating without strict deductions—I can hint that Leviticus is parallel to the Third Day (growing plants), and in the dark-empty-formless parallels, to the 6^th day.  Great whales were made on the 6^th Day, thus Moby Dick, the white whale, and…here we get a couple of tribes, thus: Crichton says that environmentalism is the religion of urban atheists.  Thus, the environmentalism tribe.  This is not good.  We can do better.  Something such as stewardship, and perhaps we can build on the Cornwall Alliance…perhaps not.

Here’s a second.  Numbers.  The forming up into battle.  We should have this as liturgical warfare on the Lord’s Day, but that is missing in our culture, mostly.  What we do have in pro football on Sundays.  And they call themselves warriors.  We need to build up the peace tribe of liturgical warfare.  How?  Perhaps a start is the simultaneity of ‘The Day of 7, yea 8 Names’ and ‘Super Bowl Sunday’ in A. D. 2012.  Here’s what I wrote then, and it has explanatory links: http://chuckhartmanhistoryconductor.blogspot.com/2013/02/counternarrative-re-super-bowl-and-much.html

This will be posted on ‘Build A Peace Tribe’ on the Facebook Page of that name, by Charles Howard Hartman (Facebook). [Godparents for Eldsters has its own facebook page and blog also}

Without the imperative, there is no future.  So, what should you do now?  Start with doing a Warriors of Light program in your church.  I’ll help.  Participation via 49ths will be given.

If I were unemployed: Henry Ford, Depression Answer

Go own the street offering to do small jobs FOR FREE of about 1/2 hour. Done? Keep going.  Soon others would hear of you and ask if you would help them for free. You'd have a list.  Soon it would be large, so that you'd have a waiting list, and then some would offer to pay to get to the top of the list, and you would have the seed of a handyman business--and if not, you'd be helping people.  Henry Ford's answer about what he would do if unemployed in the Depression. Could work for businesses too, on a different scale.

If I were unemployed, I'd do something like this. Go down the street asking at houses if there were anything they wanted done, free. Do one thing, go to the next house. Keep going. After a while, people might hear of me and ask if I could help them. I'd have a longer and longer list of chores, and eventually someone would offer to pay me something to get to the top of the list, maybe? Were I good at selling, or helping businesses, etc., I'd do the same for businesses. Moral: Do something, get noticed. There's lots to be done.

A Beginning of Better Communication: 'Scientific Method' For Next Era

Sing A New Era!(TM)

(Lord willing)

When finished, this short book will include the complete Opus 47 of The Symphony of History: From Creation Speech Through New Song, Singing

And

A Fill-In-The-Blanks Version. [A group could play this exact Symphony with variations and additions. See Epilog 7 for how to start your symphony. Time permitting, I’ll email back and forth from edencity@aol.com to help.]

Let’s start!

BUT FIRST—[Apr 22]

Fear not, non-religious people, secularists!

A ‘resurrection’ can be any major change.  Newton’s apple,

one’s realization of one’s purpose in life, a new job, a marriage…. .

The basis:‘He Who Reversed The Trend’

Please see the Rosenstock-Huessy quote in Epilog 2 and  below.

 Day 8, Chuck, Resurrection, asks Day 7, Timothy, Fall: What imperative comes from the Resurrection, and impacts your trauma Church?  Impacts you or someone else.

(This Initiation is forwarded also to PageS 21, for Day 7’s Response (IR= City in Hebrew!).

Start the Fill-in-the-blanks part now, below (modified April 7)

Fill in the Initiation (asking) from the Symphony YOU are making from Day 8 to Day 7 here: __________________________________________________________________

© A. D. 2013, PergamosCoram861/EphesusCoram861

By Charles Howard Hartman

--See Epilog 7 for how to start your symphony, and why!--

---The title could have been: Comprehensive History Interactive---

--If the Symphony is meeting face-to-face, the first week can be devoted to initiating.

Conductor will help each and all--

Imagine that 12 Days are seated around a table.  Day 8 is on the West, facing east, and to Day 8’s right, in this order, are Day 7, Day 1, and Day 12.

On the East facing west is Day 2.  On Day 2’s right, in this order are Day 6 and Day 9.

On the North facing south is Day 3.  On Day 3’s right, in this order are Day 5 and Day 10.

On the South facing north is Day 4.  On Day 4’s right is Day 11.

This will be written in a way similar to the great book, ‘The Immortal Game,’ by Shenk. He alternated moves in what chess players call ‘the immortal game’ with sections on the history and importance of the game of chess.

This is primarily done to restrict others from restricting use. ( I am most open to joint ventures.) An electronic version may be obtained from edencity@aol.com as it is built, pending website.

Fear not, non-religious people, secularists!

A ‘resurrection’ can be any major change.  Newton’s apple,

one’s realization of one’s purpose in life, a new job, a marriage…. .

Rosenstock-Huessy Quote Chuck uses for ‘Resurrection’

If you
ever in your life had a bright idea, or a new instinct, or a
new change of heart,
Sir, make this the cornerstone of your understanding
of the universe and you
will understand that the universe begins with creation. And
it ends in incarnation, because that's the experience of every potent and creative
man in the world.
But you look outside and try to deduce by your little brain,
not by your experience of your heart how the world begins, and how it should be
run. You'll never
solve it, gentlemen. You'll remain a selfish, inarticulate
animal. If the spirit moves
you, you will see how simple
things are, gentlemen. Love begins, and hope
keeps you going, and faith. And in the end, your grandchildren
will bless you.
ERH

[This quite is from a last lecture of one of ERH’s courses at Dartmouth in the middle of the 20^th century.  See www.argobooks.org for more]

Also, a great example of finding one’s vocation, of resurrection, is in Sturgeon’s GREAT short story, ‘Brownshoes’.  It’s in his ‘Sturgeon is Alive and Well’. Also titled ‘The Man Who Learned Love’. A hippie discovers free energy—how is he to get ‘power to the people’. You will be wonderfully surprised!

See Epilog 8.

At Ascension, the universe was retuned! Rev. 5:12-7:12

I should write on every post that mentions Mother's Day that at Ascension (shown in Revelation 5:12 compared to Revelation 7:12, the universe is retuned by circle of fifths.  The universe is retuned.

This is similar to the process by which we obtained the names of our days of the week in English/Europe, as shown by the inclusion of names of deities of the 'planets' and the planets themselves.

Consider: The Moon is closest to Earth, 1.  Then Venus is 2, Mercury 3, Sun is four, then Mars-5, Jupiter-6, Saturn-7.  But retuning this, start with 7 and then do 1234 (a total of 5) and you get...Sun(day).  5 more (45671) and you get Moon...Day. Etc.  2 and 3 are switched. The reasons will  be reasoned out.

From Jordan's Commentary on Revelation, the big one.  Wordmp3.com.

[I think there'a another retuning] Also, instruments were added, singing, and 'the' in front of each name of the attributes of Christ that were retuned.

The universe was retuned!

Tentative (bad) lyrics for A. D. 70 hymn, based on 'This is the Feast'

Some history first, a series of emails.  Then an historical precedent, some themes, and a start on lyrics.

Dear _____ and ______:

I think Pastor ___ likes this song.

Additional lyrics could be added, a la Charles Wesley, that specifically tell about A. D. 70.

“This is the feast of victory for our God. Alleluia.
Worthy is Christ, the Lamb who was slain,
Whose blood set us free to be people of God?
Power, riches and wisdom and strength,
And honor and blessing and glory are his.
This is the feast of victory for our God. Alleluia.
Sing with all the people of God
And join in the hymn of all creation;
Blessing and honor and glory and might
Be to God and the Lamb forever. "Amen.
This is the feast of victory for our God,
For the Lamb who was slain has begun his reign.
Alleluia. Alleluia.”

Let’s do a Charles Wesley.  He is credited with thousands of hymns.  For many of these he supplied lyrics/words for tunes already in existence.

So, for the verses that celebrate A. D. 70’s destruction of the Temple in Jerusalem, what themes do we want to hymn?  I’ll list some, and then I’ll put some poor words to computer screen, praying that others will have more themes, and better words.

The words above have some problems. 

Are they the words in the green LCMS Hymnal?

Victory House-Building Pattern:  God destroys the enemies of His People.  With the spoils, His People build Him a house.  He moves in, lights the fire, puts His feet up, and His People administer the conquest in His Name.

Thus, God destroyed Egypt and Pharaoh’s army. War materiel that washed up from the Red Sea was added to the gifts, and the skills from Egypt of Aholiab and Bezaleel helped the building.  When done, the Holy Spirit filled the Tabernacle…

Let’s start.  Words used now in the odd lines, new words to this theme in the even lines (italics).

“This is the feast of victory for our God. Alleluia.
(I think there are two more Alleluias)
This is the feast of victory for our God. Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia.

Worthy is Christ, the Lamb who was slain,
Whose blood set us free to be people of God?
Worthy is Christ who destroyed the TEMple
In A. D. 70 a- a- s He said.
Power, riches and wisdom and strength,
And honor and blessing and glory are his.
He said He’d destroy it, the Temple
And Converts, and  Scripture and glory are his.

This is the feast of victory for our God. Alleluia.
This is the feast of victory for our God. Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia.
Sing with all the people of God
Each week we echo this worship

And join in the hymn of all creation;
And join in the way of joyous triumph

Blessing and honor and glory and might
He inspected it for leprosy

Be to God and the Lamb forever. "Amen.
And scattered it to unclean places.
This is the feast of victory for our God,
For the Lamb who was slain has begun his reign.
Alleluia. Alleluia.”

The art form of the next era.

Engendering peace in a neo-tribal era that we enter now.

I propose that the national revolutions of the West, the scientific method, and traditional worship orders in the church (liturgy) follow the same 5-step pattern.

'Sing A New Era!' follows that pattern.

To circle back around, this pattern applied to the heavens above is worship liturgy. Applied to the waters under the earth, it's the scientific method. SANE! ('Sing A New Era!') applies it to the earth beneath, people.

Circling again, I follow Eugen Rosenstock-Huessy's Universal History 1954 challenge, that the next 1000 years, however long that it, will focus on the challenges of sociology. www.argobooks.org offers all his Dartmouth lectures on a DVD, written, for $30, and a selection of recorded ones. I recommend the DVD with Universal History 1954. Also see http://plato.stanford.edu/entries/rosenstock-huessy/ For the revolutions of the West as they follow ERH's speech-method, see Chapter 5 of Gardner's 'Beyond Belief'.

Now, to sum up, what I do is that I show this method by example. 1--I call 10 people in, via their talent or trauma. As Mr. Monk modified would say, a talent is a blessing--and a cross. 2--These folks are encouraged that they are able to turn this being called in, the talent/trauma, into something great by going through the method that was used, this 5-step method used in the scientific method and order of worship. 3--We interact. Comprehensive History Interactive. One anothering one another. This is not a top-down process, but a conducted one: train conductor, electricity conductor, orchestra conductor. 4--After each one and the group have been transformed, each one sings a solo, summarizing--and the conductor summarizes all, by a symphony, I call it. 5--This is then taken out for what ERH calls planetary service.

Circling again. I 'rhyme' several of these 5-step processes. Sayers' cuddle-story-parrot-pert-poet. Jordan's law-lyric-evaluation-fact-new torah/instruction. Jordan's liturgy: call, Cleanse, Consecrate, Commune, Commission. ERH's Imperative-Subjective-Narrative-Objective unto Planetary Service. North's Transcendence-Hierarchy-Ethics-Oaths and Sanctions-Succession, and his Who's in charge? To whom do I report? What are the rules? What happens if I follow the rules, if I don't? Does this outfit have a future?

And more.

The process is fun and transforming, face to face. To 'play' (do, be, compose...) all 12 parts is cruciating. Cruciating because one is torn in many ways. One must do an initiatory move toward all parts of the universe of this house of conversation each week, and then respond to these respective universes of initiation...all while being pulled from the end (the solos), and pushed from the beginning (the talent/trauma).

I do The Symphony of History, Opus 47: From Creation Speech to New Song, Singing as well as a 'fill-in-the-blanks' version.

Love in King Jesus,

Chuck
PS: For many, their 'resurrection' will not at this time be religious, but some new way of thinking, some major change. As ERH spoke in one of his lectures: If you
ever in your life had a bright idea, or a new instinct, or a
new change of heart,
Sir, make this the cornerstone of your understanding
of the universe and you
will understand that the universe begins with creation. And
it ends in incarnation, because that's the experience of every potent and creative
man in the world.
But you look outside and try to deduce by your little brain,
not by your experience of your heart how the world begins, and how it should be
run. You'll never
solve it, gentlemen. You'll remain a selfish, inarticulate
animal. If the spirit moves
you, you will see how simple
things are, gentlemen. Love begins, and hope
keeps you going, and faith. And in the end, your grandchildren
will bless you.
ERH
PPS: Much more.

Honor 'father and mother' with lectionary historical--Get out your Ussher and...

Gentles:

It's a new year, or rather Celebration Of Resurrection Anno Mundi! (CORAM--word play intended).

This is an outline of a way to learn history.

When we take Ussher's Annals of the World (free online at Preterist Archive), and divide it by 49 (books in JBJ's 'Rethinking the Order of the Old Testament,' we get @ 81 years per week.

We don't do it for holiday weeks, such as Public Vindication--only ordinary weeks.

[There are 31 extra years in Week 25, for Father Abraham, and JBJ has indicated a delay of 80 years might be near the end].

GO FORWARD AND BACKWARD. In other words, this week we do both the first 81 years, and the last 81 + 80 years.

---
Second part is the use of something such as 'The 100 Most Important Events in Church History'. http://www.amazon.com/Most-Important-Events-Christian-History/dp/0800756444

One could do @ 40 years per week. 2013 minus 70 is 1943 years, divided by 49.  Put the extras in with Week 25, as was done above?

Do a couple a week, forwards and backwards, for each of the 49 weeks.  That's 98.  Give Father Abraham 2 more, making 100.

This week, then, it's The Fire in Rome, A. D. 64 and Titus Destroys Jerusalem, A. D. 70 going forward. Going backward in's '1966-1976 Chinese Church Grows Despite Cultural Revolution, and 1963 Martin Luther King, Jr. Leads March on Washington.

You see that this book needs updating.  Wat are imortan events since 1976, one could ask?

--
This Lectionary Historical is in obedience to the Fifth Word.  It's a way of honoring 'father and mother,' in this case 'history'.  There are many outshining of father and mother.

Love in King Jesus,

Chuck
