Wouldn't you lift the veil to see who you're marrying?

That's retarded

Marrying someone you don't knowm

and then God said ot sacrifice Isaac, and he abided, and before the sacrifice occurred, God stopped him (it was a test of faith)

Even if it is your cousin.

well ceremonially you're not suppose to see the bride before marriage, and it'd probably be very uncustomary to lift the veil

until after marriage

I mean, is that where the tradition came from?

i would assume so

but i am not 100% sure

lol

Surprise you're marrying this person!

also, if i remember right

Scary lmfao

Israel essentially means "Struggles with God"

which is why he was renamed Israel after wrestling with the angel

and probably why some people think the angel was actually God

My name is Jacob, and I struggle with god.

Maybe he put a voice in my mother's head and told her to name me that..

Or I'm some insignificant worm.

a famous image

depicting the event

who knows lol

jacob means supplanter

which is exactly what he did to his brother

there is also a lot of interesting things in the Bible that is not commonly discussed

subjects of theological debate among the denominations

one of my favorite being the concept of Christophany

We'll have to discuss it at a later date. I get up at 7am and I don't get home until 9

Pm

which is essentially the idea that in the Old Testament, God (specifically Jesus) has physical manifestations or presences before he is officially born in the New Testament

alright lol

I guess, I have my own skepticism.

🤢

Tbh I agree with a lot of the stuff on the LGBT rules page. Except for that mental health thing, judging people for their clothing and hair (With exception, clothing and hair determines if they're clean, dirty, what type of person they are and if you should associate with them).

Also, sex is built for only a penis and vagina. Lesbians use strapons and and assholes prolapse in gay sex.

(nods solemnly)
God's will

Hey goyim that's anti-semitism. Think about the 6 gorillion 😂

Whew boy got a project already for my sjw class about how 17th and 18th century Europe differed from native Americans in terms of sexuality and gender

Got to write something positive about Europe instead of just talking smack about it

Still find it odd since my political theory class had more about empirical facts and had a cool lecture about the Kaisers before and during WWI and why organizations like the Leagues of Nations and UN are bad

Would have been neat if this class was more neutral and use my BAH to maybe visit places in Virgina like I did in middle school to do some on the spot research for stuff
