I can follow this, up to

they are neopronouns

I believe that that’s a decision made by translators of the bible. Hebrew doesn’t have lowercase letters, and the Greek versions of the New Testament that I found don’t capitalize as much. And are they distinct?

Yeah, it’s more of an act of reverence or deference. However, it is a pronoun (cis-gendered, and preferred) which some people believe never occurs in the Bible.

You should know how much time Christian monks spent reasoning about the foreskin of Christ.

It’s a lot.

Long enough to postulate that once the Jesus ascended, his foreskin ascended as well and become. The. Rings. Of. Saturn.

Sky will never be the same, won’t it?

At that point it’s just Greek mythology all over again.

Yeah but with significantly less blackjack and hookers and significantly more foreskins. Cause you didn’t think there was only one foreskin on display for all those pilgrims, did you?

In Exodus, Moses asked to see God’s face, and was not allowed to. God told him he would allow Moses to see his “back” instead. When I was a boy at Yeshiva, the prevailing wisdom was that God showed Moses the back of his neck, and his Tefilin knot. The Tefilin contains passages relating the Shema, and my Rabbis connected it back to how God has a devotion of his own to Israel in his tefilin (which this source also does).

The tefilin is a rite only permitted for men to practice, so I guess that’s ones thing for this meme. But the word used for back, אֲחֹרָ֑י, is more accurately translated as “butt.” Now why would God need a butt?

This is old Testament by the way. The J source for those who care, who often portrays God as a little earthier than the others.

Imagine going into a cave to see God and it’s just him bent over showing hole
