2 Chronicles 36:15-23

2 Chronicles 36:15-23 ERV
The LORD, the God of their ancestors, sent prophets again and again to warn his people. He did this because he felt sorry for them and for his Temple. He didn’t want to destroy them or his Temple. But they made fun of God’s prophets and refused to listen to them. They hated God’s messages. Finally, the LORD could not hold his anger any longer. He became angry with his people and there was nothing that could be done to stop it. So God brought the king of Babylon to attack the people of Judah and Jerusalem. The king of Babylon killed the young men even when they were in the Temple. He didn’t have mercy on the people of Judah and Jerusalem. The king of Babylon killed young and old people. He killed men and women. He killed sick and healthy people. God permitted Nebuchadnezzar to punish the people of Judah and Jerusalem. Nebuchadnezzar carried all the things in God’s Temple away to Babylon. He took all the valuable things from the LORD’s Temple, from the king, and from the king’s officials. Nebuchadnezzar and his army burned the Temple. They broke down Jerusalem’s wall and burned all the houses that belonged to the king and his officials. They took or destroyed every valuable thing in Jerusalem. Nebuchadnezzar took the people who were still alive back to Babylon and forced them to be slaves. They stayed in Babylon as slaves until the Persian kingdom defeated the kingdom of Babylon. The land of Judah became an empty desert and stayed that way for 70 years. All this time the land rested to make up for the Sabbath rests that the people had not kept. This is just what the LORD said would happen in the warning he gave through the prophet Jeremiah. During the first year that Cyrus was king of Persia, the LORD caused Cyrus to make a special announcement. He did this so that what the caused Cyrus to make a special announcement. He did this so that what the LORD promised through Jeremiah the prophet would really happen. Cyrus sent messengers to every place in his kingdom. They carried this message: This is what King Cyrus of Persia says: The LORD, the God of heaven, made me king over the whole earth. He gave me the responsibility of building a Temple for him in Jerusalem. Now, all of you who are his people are free to go to Jerusalem. And may the , the God of heaven, made me king over the whole earth. He gave me the responsibility of building a Temple for him in Jerusalem. Now, all of you who are his people are free to go to Jerusalem. And may the LORD your God be with you.

Matthew 13:24-30
New International Version
The Parable of the Weeds
24 Jesus told them another parable: “The kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field. 25 But while everyone was sleeping, his enemy came and sowed weeds among the wheat, and went away. 26 When the wheat sprouted and formed heads, then the weeds also appeared.

27 “The owner’s servants came to him and said, ‘Sir, didn’t you sow good seed in your field? Where then did the weeds come from?’

28 “‘An enemy did this,’ he replied.

“The servants asked him, ‘Do you want us to go and pull them up?’

29 “‘No,’ he answered, ‘because while you are pulling the weeds, you may uproot the wheat with them. 30 Let both grow together until the harvest. At that time I will tell the harvesters: First collect the weeds and tie them in bundles to be burned; then gather the wheat and bring it into my barn.’”

Six shocking things about ‘sex farms’ that existed during slavery

During #slavery, slave owners usually examined enslaved women’s’ fertility to ensure that they could give birth to as many children as conceivable. In addition, the same slave owners would secretly impregnate the enslaved women and when the children grew up, they too would become slaves and end up working in the fields where their mothers did, typically slave owners making slaves out of their own blood.

It was common practice for slaves to be sexually subordinated by their masters, and sometimes with other enslaved males. One of the functions of a slave was to give pleasure to the master, according to a recent article in the Atlanticblackstar; the slave was an ‘animated sexual pleasure tool’ for the master.

Enslaved teenage males had their maiden body inspection before the age of 15. If the results found them to be underdeveloped, they were castrated and either used on the farms, or sent to the market. In an ideal slavery sex farm, an enslaved male was expected to get at least 12 females pregnant each year, and this would go on for at least five consecutive years. As a result of this, there was a man named Burt who had more than 200 children. The main purpose of slave breeding was to reproduce more slaves without having to incur additional purchase costs and was also a convenient way of producing more slaves after the abolition of the Atlantic slave trade.

Female slaves were required by to begin having children at puberty, many of them at around the age of 13. By the time they were 20, they were expected to have at least four children, and to encourage them to have more children, they were promised freedom once they bore at least 15 children.

In addition, slave women who were considered pretty, or fair looking worked in the slave owner’s main house, where they got some special privileges. However, the perks came with cruelty from the master’s wife and some women had their children beheaded if born of mixed race.

In bizarre scenarios, slaves were coerced into sex orgies before their white masters and their friends as a form of entertainment. There would be multiple pairings and sometimes white men would also participate in the same orgies.

Long nose has tendency to have droopy nasal tip with hump, and appears as arrow shape from the side profile. The cause of arrow nose is due to the shape or location of inner structure of the nose. In majority cases, long nose is caused by combination of droopy alar cartilage and overgrowth of septum cartilage.

The Irish and Scottish surname Richey, also found in England, is a pet form of the personal name Rich, a short form of Richard.

Deuteronomy 7:3

“Neither shalt thou make marriages with them; thy daughter thou shalt not give unto his son, nor his daughter shalt thou take unto thy son

Majeste:


There is an African proverb and I am quite fond of the wisdom of Africa. It says that, Anyone wishing poverty upon you wishes death upon you. It's not just a simple matter of economic discrimination it's a war against the soul of another. And it's all rooted in envy.
