Honor your parents

The first sin in the Garden of Eden was the first act of idolatry, the conception of all subsequent pantheism, 'We shall be as God..."

The cure for this was to place Israel under the commandment of the Torah, repositioning Humanity to fear God not its own power of choice.  This established Israel on two levels.  On the first level Israel is established as a family offshoot of the first Adam, and on the second level Israel is established as defined by God's word as a promise of blessing - that must and will overcome God's word as a curse of poverty and death upon all Humanity, including Israel.

Rabbi Nachman teaches that the Holy Language cannot be perfected without the Targum.  This means that the aspect of Israel that is defined by the election of God does not replace the aspect of Israel that is goyish and defined by its identity in the first Adam but rather elevates that original nature.

Adam's sin was the origin of the concept of replacement theology, 'We will be the decision makers for the world instead of God'.  But when God turned the relationship of parent/child on its head because of this, so that it became the seed, the offspring, of the woman which God said would crush the serpent and the parents then could only hope as two individuals in this promise made against the serpent, then the natural adamic mind began to elevate itself in the position of child against parent, desiring to be the replacement for the head of Humanity.

1 The vision of Obadiah. This is what the Lord GOD says concerning Edom: We haveheard tidings from the LORD, and an ambassador is sent among the nations, saying, Arise! Let us rise up against her in battle.

2 Consider how I have made you small among the nations: you are greatly despised.

3 The pride of your heart has deceived thee, You that dwell in the clefts of the rock, whose habitation is high; that says in his heart, Who shall bring me down to the ground?

4 Though you mount on high as the eagle, and though your nest be set among the stars, I will bring thee down from there, says the LORD.

5 If thieves came to thee, if robbers by night, (consider how your are cut off!) would they not steal until they had  enough? if grape gatherers came to you, would they not leave some gleaning grapes?

6 How are the things of Esau searched out! how are his hidden treasures sought for!

7 All the people of your confederacy have brought you on your way, even to the border: the people that were at peace with you have deceived you, and prevailed against you; they that your bread lay a snare under you: there is no understanding in him.

8 Shall I not in that day, says the LORD, destroy the wise out of Edom, and understanding out of the mount of Esau?

9 And thy mighty men, O Teman, shall be dismayed, to the end that every one may be cut off from the mount of Esau by slaughter.

10 For the violence done to your brother Jacob shame shall cover thee, and you shall be cut off for ever.

11 In the day that you stood on the other side, in the day that strangers carried away his substance, and foreigners entered into his gates, and cast lots upon Jerusalem, you, even you were as one of them.

12 But do not look on the day of your brother in the day of his disaster, and do not rejoice over the children of Judah in the day of their destruction; neither speak proudly in the day of distress.

13 Do not enter the gate of my people in the day of their calamity; yes, do not look upon their affliction in the day of their calamity, neither lay your hands on their substance in the day of their calamity.

14 And stand not at the crossroad, to cut off those of his that escape; and deliver not up those of his that remain in the day of distress.

15 For the day of the LORD is near upon all the nations: as you have done, it shall be done unto you; your dealings shall return upon your own head.

16 For as you have drunk upon my holy mountain, so shall all the nations drink continually, yes, they shall drink, and swallow down, and shall be as though they had not been.

17 But in mount Zion there shall be those that escape, and it shall be holy; and the house of Jacob shall possess their possessions.

18 And the house of Jacob shall be a fire, and the house of Joseph a flame, and the house of Esau for stubble, and they shall burn among them, and devour them: and there shall not be any remaining to the house of Esau; for
the LORD has spoken it.

19 And they of the South shall possess the mount of Esau; and they of the lowland the Philistines and they shall possess the field of Ephraim, and the field of Samaria: and Benjamin shall possess Gilead.

20 And the captivity of this host of the children of Israel, which are among the Canaanites, shall possess even unto Zarephath; and the captivity of Jerusalem, which is in Sepharad, shall possess the cities of the South.

21 And saviours shall come up on mount Zion to judge the mount of Esau; and the kingdom shall be the LORD'S.
