The Tribe of Dan was NOT a genuine tribe of Israel
by fulltimestudent inthe claim that dan was not a genuine tribe is not new, but as the haaretz article explains there is newer archaeological evidence to suggest that the contemporary claims about the tribe of dan have some merit.. so check out the haaretz claims at: http://www.haaretz.com/jewish/archaeology/1.756385.
but there are wider implications in the story.
if this particular group of people did not travel from egypt (as god's word of truth also claims) then they must have lived in canaan all the time.. then consider that palestine (canaan) was for so long part of the egyptian empire, and we begin to see that most of story about the origins of the israelites is mythical..

If so, what had gone on with this tribe that made it so inconsequential?
fpr one thing (in the bible) that tribe opted out of the land partition and took up territory in the North, and kept idos to centralize worship away from Jerusalem in the south. Somebody had to leave to make room for Joseph's double portion. His double portion is payback for his brothers ousting him. so justice.
British Israel taught that Dan later went even further north and founded the city of Danzig on the baltic.

interesting read: Australia, not Austria: 40% reduction in blood transfusion was accompanied with a 60% drop in postoperative death.? Correlation does not prove causation! blood transfusion just another organ transplant?

marginal notes: Par 19: "--[Jesus} appealed neither to his vast wisdom, nor to his unparalleled experience--"
comment: and that is obvious, because, how could he refer to a flood that could have never happened, to a fish swallowing a surviving man for 3+ days, not object to Satan's flat Earth temptation, if he recalled the facts?

"Hard work never killed anyone," or "I have to give up knitting."
by compound complex ingreetings, my aging friends:.
it's not really a funny subject, our getting old and our bodies falling apart.
sure, as the saying goes, hard work won't kill you, but it can wear out your body.

Dorcas of course was good with the needles, and even though it did not prevent her death, it merited her a resurrection, a reward in line with Jesus' mentioned to bring benefit, humanitarian activity.

Why Were the Anabaptists Not Chosen by Jesus in 1919?
by berrygerry inwt acknowledges their lack of neutrality during ww1, and previously stated that this was followed by a period of refining.
however, they were still the one group that far-and-away were the only ones that were practicing first-century christianity the most closely, as well as being the only group trying to do so.. interesting read about the hutterites ( http://www.ubcpress.ca/books/pdf/chapters/courtsandcolonies/chapterone.pdf ).
, especially this quote about ww1:.

because they lacked the savvy to come up with a worldwide campaign, proclaiming " The World has ended, Millions now living will never die". That gem brought wt the honor to be appointed the Faithful & Discreet Slave, of 1919, 5 years into the under lapper group of the last generation.

think it's really terrible that the Russian government banned the JW.... Yes, they have done many mistakes (and held them accountable for that) but they are peaceful people.
mf: They did not ban the people, did they? they banned the wt bts inc, org, the originators, enforcers of the hate.
