How Israel walked their way into over 400 years of slavery the mistake the present day Isreal has learnt from. Genesis 47


In Genesis 41 Pharaoh had a dream about the economic recession that would later be world scale in Genesis 47


An Israeli technocrat (Joseph) provided the solution that would later be the game changer for Pharaoh.


So the recession became severe, Joseph made attempt to safe his family. Jacob (The individual Israel) relocated to Goshen and abandoned Canaan.


Why should they be bothered? After all their brethren was doing well in Egypt.


So Joseph bought all the land in Egypt for the king. Every Egyptian sold Joseph his field, because the hunger was very great. So the land became the king’s. And Joseph made the people slaves from one end of Egypt to the other. The only land he did not buy was the land the PRIESTS owned. They did not need to sell their land because the king paid them for their work. So they had money to buy food.

Genesis 47:20‭-‬22 ICB


Question?

Who were the priests and who do think are the contemporary priests?

Clue: Business owners


Isreal slavery activated.

A new Pharaoh emerged, and didn't care about who Joseph was. Exodus 1:8


So, the present day Isreal:

They no longer abandon their lands (infact they took  this to the extreme, they now wage war for it).

Unlike Jacob they are no longer individualistics.

Then an average Jew is not looking for  jobs, rather create jobs


Note: They still migrate till date, but they no longer migrate like Jacob did.

Time Validates

Hey there. Let's set the alarm for a productive day ahead. Before diving in, let's acknowledge the date, which might vary depending on where you're tuning in from. Now, let's get to it. But first, a word on the political and economic landscape here in Nigeria. It's crucial to recognize that the political elite often prioritizes their own interests over those of the people. Trusting them blindly is akin to living in a cycle of déjà vu, where they justify their actions while contradicting the interests of the people. Remember the proposal some time back that all politicians should educate their kids within Nigeria? The dismissive response to that idea was telling. It's clear they prioritize their own convenience over the needs of the people. We mustn't be naive to think they have our best interests at heart. It's imperative for us, the citizens, to organize and protect our own interests. Unity among us is paramount, transcending divisions based on religion

The Merchant of Venice

I got to the point of deliberately using movies as an extension of my library. It was 2 weeks to the exam and the book "Merchant of Venice" would not enter my skull no matter how hard I tried, it was a book written by Shakespeare and like the usual Shakespeare style of writing this would be a bit technical also because of its settings (in literature setting means the actual place and time of an event). This literature is centred around the old Italian environment. So there were many terminologies used in English that were unclear because of the Italian twist. Don't forget it was 2 weeks before the WAEC (West African Examination Council) Exam.  The Twist - So my beautiful literature teacher got informed that there was a premiere of the Merchant of Venice book (the movie) at another school and gave us the update. It was the needed update very sure than any 'maga or fraudsters' update would rely on. It was a turning point in how I would begin seeing and interacting w
