Jedi Mind Tricks Presents: Army Of The Pharaohs - "Seven" [Official Audio]

[shadowalchemistofficial]

One of the hardest hitting verses Vinnie ever made. He’s right, being close to godliness is being close to loneliness. Once you master the art of being alone: weight is lifted, nothing can touch you, nothing can hold you, you’re focus is fine tuned and you cut out the fluff. It’s nice to have people and be surrounded by friends, but in the end you’re all alone by yourself. When you go wherever you go at the end of the line it will be you in front of whatever is standing there to talk to and send you on your final destination. I’m the end you are accountable for just you. If you can be by yourself at any time for whatever time, you are a beast or god. If you can stand your silence and your thoughts, nothing can hurt you not harm you. Everything just passes by and can’t bother you.

“Yeah

I fuck with marks like the Bolsheviks

Eat a mahfucker heart, cross it off the grocery list

Being close to godliness is being close to loneliness

Like being close to Communist is being close to Socialist

It's a cemetery reign, this is frozen mist

I swim and I don't get wet, I am oceanless

Straight right/left hook y'all are motionless

How is you gon' make magic when you potionless?

Feeding multiple motherfuckers like loaves of fish

Gun cannon assembly from Terrordome broken clips

I just wrote so many rhymes I got a broken wrist

You ain't worth the left hook, stupid here's an open fist”

This is what happens when a figure collector runs out of room in their office, bedroom, and (lol) bathroom - you take over the nearest hallway. (Ok, it's the start of a takeover. One single cabinet does not constitute a takeover!)

At least now my Yu-Gi-Oh! army (including Yami and a herd of Dark Magicians, the 20lb resin Atem on horseback, and Seto Kaiba and his horde of dragons) finally get a cabinet they can call home : p (tho Seto and Yami already have an entire shelf in another cabinet). And there's room for more here too, which is great since I already have 3 more figures on order...

(I'll post updated, closer up shots of each shelf once I have backdrops and LEDs in place ^_^)

Pharaoh Pursues the Israelites

1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 2 Speak to the children of Israel, and let them turn and encamp before the village, between Magdol and the sea, opposite Beel-sepphon: before them shalt thou encamp by the sea. 3 And Pharao will say to his people, As for these children of Israel, they are wandering in the land, for the wilderness has shut them in. 4 And I will harden the heart of Pharao, and he shall pursue after them; and I will be glorified in Pharao, and in all his host, and all the Egyptians shall know that I am the Lord. And they did so.

5 And it was reported to the king of the Egyptians that the people had fled: and the heart of Pharao was turned, and that of his servants against the people; and they said, What is this that we have done, to let the children of Israel go, so that they should not serve us? 6 So Pharao yoked his chariots, and led off all his people with himself: 7 having also taken six hundred chosen chariots, and all the cavalry of the Egyptians, and rulers over all. 8 And the Lord hardened the heart of Pharao king of Egypt, and of his servants, and he pursued after the children of Israel; and the children of Israel went forth with a high hand. 9 And the Egyptians pursued after them, and found them encamped by the sea; and all the cavalry and the chariots of Pharao, and the horsemen, and his host were before the village, over against Beel-sepphon.

10 And Pharao approached, and the children of Israel having looked up, beheld, and the Egyptians encamped behind them: and they were very greatly terrified, and the children of Israel cried to the Lord; 11 and said to Moses, Because there were no graves in the land of Egypt, hast thou brought us forth to slay us in the wilderness? What is this that thou hast done to us, having brought us out of Egypt? 12 Is not this the word which we spoke to thee in Egypt, saying, Let us alone that we may serve the Egyptians? for it is better for us to serve the Egyptians than to die in this wilderness.

13 And Moses said to the people, Be of good courage: stand and see the salvation which is from the Lord, which he will work for us this day; for as ye have seen the Egyptians to-day, ye shall see them again no more for ever. 14 The Lord shall fight for you, and ye shall hold your peace.

Parting the Red Sea

15 and the Lord said to Moses, Why criest thou to me? speak to the children of Israel, and let them proceed. 16 And do thou lift up thy rod, and stretch forth thy hand over the sea, and divide it, and let the children of Israel enter into the midst of the sea on the dry land. 17 And lo! I will harden the heart of Pharao and of all the Egyptians, and they shall go in after them; and I will be glorified upon Pharao, and on all his host, and on his chariots and his horses. 18 And all the Egyptians shall know that I am the Lord, when I am glorified upon Pharao and upon his chariots and his horses.

19 And the angel of God that went before the camp of the children of Israel removed and went behind, and the pillar of the cloud also removed from before them and stood behind them. 20 And it went between the camp of the Egyptians and the camp of Israel, and stood; and there was darkness and blackness; and the night passed, and they came not near to one another during the whole night.

21 And Moses stretched forth his hand over the sea, and the Lord carried back the sea with a strong south wind all the night, and made the sea dry, and the water was divided. 22 And the children of Israel went into the midst of the sea on the dry land, and the water of it was a wall on the right hand and a wall on the left. 23 And the Egyptians pursued them and went in after them, and every horse of Pharao, and his chariots, and his horsemen, into the midst of the sea. 24 And it came to pass in the morning watch that the Lord looked forth on the camp of the Egyptians through the pillar of fire and cloud, and troubled the camp of the Egyptians, 25 and bound the axle-trees of their chariots, and caused them to go with difficulty; and the Egyptians said, Let us flee from the face of Israel, for the Lord fights for them against the Egyptians.

26 And the Lord said to Moses, Stretch forth tine hand over the sea, and let the water be turned back to its place, and let it cover the Egyptians coming both upon the chariots and the riders. 27 And Moses stretched forth his hand over the sea, and the water returned to its place toward day; and the Egyptians fled from the water, and the Lord shook off the Egyptians in the midst of the sea. 28 and the water returned and covered the chariots and the riders, and all the forces of Pharao, who entered after them into the sea: and there was not left of them even one. 29 But the children of Israel went along dry land in the midst of the sea, and the water was to them a wall on the right hand, and a wall on the left.

30 So the Lord delivered Israel in that day from the hand of the Egyptians, and Israel saw the Egyptians dead by the shore of the sea. 31 And Israel saw the mighty hand, the things which the Lord did to the Egyptians; and the people feared the Lord, and they believed God and Moses his servant. — Exodus 14 | Brenton's Septuagint Translation (BST) The English translation of The Septuagint by Sir Lancelot Charles Lee Brenton (1851) Cross References: Genesis 15:1; Exodus 4:17; Exodus 5:21; Exodus 6:9; Exodus 7:5; Exodus 13:21-22; Exodus 15:3-4; Exodus 15:9-10; Exodus 15:19; Exodus 15:25; Leviticus 10:3; Numbers 33:7; Deuteronomy 4:34; Deuteronomy 32:31; Joshua 24:6; 2 Kings 17:7; Psalm 78:14; Psalm 78:53; Isaiah 11:15-16; John 2:11; Acts 7:36; Acts 13:17; Romans 9:18; 1 Corinthians 10:1; Hebrews 11:29

Well…

I live in the UK and sometimes, with the kids I babysit, we watch a channel called CBeebies!

And…erm…

Does anyone else think they look similar?

Merry Christmas Nebby!

@nebbychan Dunno when you’ll see this as I know you’re away for the holiday, but here’s your prompt of Dan Fortesque, hero of Medievil, ending up in the Land of the Dead looking for his lost love Kiya and getting some help from the residents there! Hope you like!

--

“Uh – excuse me! Pardon me! I’m – I’m really not sure where the hell I am, but would any of you be willing to offer a brave knight some help on a dangerous journey?”

Such a pronouncement was unusual in the Land of the Dead, especially in Burtonsville. Curious, the locals headed toward the source – a skeleton standing by old Bone Beauty, dressed in armor and wielding a sword with a rather nervous glint in his single blue eye. “Hey, what are you on about?” Bonejangles called, cupping his hands around his mouth. “What sort of place you goin’ that’s so dangerous?”

“The Egyptian afterlife!” the knight replied – though his voice was rather indistinct, due to his lacking a lower jaw. “Which I presume this is not? Sorry, I really don’t know where I am right now. . .”

“You’re in England!” Ethel provided. “The village of Burtonsville, to be exact. But why do you want to go to Egypt?”

“England? Okay, haven’t gone far then. . .” The knight struck a pose. “And because my lady fair has been kidnapped there!”

A curious and worried ripple went through the gathering crowd. “Kidnapped?” Ms. Plum repeated, tapping her hand with a spoon. “How?”

“I – well, that part I’m not sure about,” the knight admitted, expression turning sheepish. “Look, there has been a lot of weirdness lately – I just got dragged back to the living world to help quell some evil magician trying to take it over. For the second time, I might add,” he grumbled, running a hand over his skull. “Anyway, while I was up there, running around London, I met someone else who had been resurrected – an Egyptian princess mummy named Kiya.” He smiled warmly. “She’s – great, seriously. We really hit it off, and after we managed to save the world, I followed her into her tomb, hoping we could spend the afterlife together. But when I woke up back outside the Hall of Heroes – my afterlife – she was nowhere to be found.” His upper jaw somehow managed to flex into a scowl. “Took a while, but my friends and I eventually learned she’d ended up back in Egypt – with her old husband. The asshole Pharaoh she’d spent most of her living life running from, and who insisted she be killed to follow him as his favorite bride when she bit it. I think he must have done something to force her to return to him, so – kidnapping.”

Another ripple shot through the crowd, this time outraged. “Scandalous! No one should have to spend their whole afterlife tied to someone they don’t love!” Ethel declared, hands on her hips.

“Damn straight,” Bonejangles agreed. “This Pharaoh guy already sounds like a piece of work.”

“Someone who doesn’t know how to let go? Oh, most certainly.”

The crowd parted, allowing the speaker to step forward, eyes blazing. “I don’t know much about you, sir knight,” she continued, “but I am always ready to help a fellow lady escape an unwanted admirer. You’ve got my help on your quest.”

The rest of the crowd shouted affirmation and encouragement. “Thank you all!” the knight called, teeth curling in a grin. “Suppose I should introduce myself – Daniel Fortesque, hero of Gallowmere!”

The woman dropped a curtsy. “Lizzie Liddell, ripper-off of Bumby’s tonker. Now, how about you tell us more about this pharaoh. . .”

The Plagues of Egypt

Psalm 105: 28-38. He sent darkness, and made it dark; and they rebelled not against His word. He turned their waters into blood, and slew their fish. Their land brought forth frogs in abundance, in the chambers of their kings. He spake, and there came divers sorts of flies, and lice in all their coasts. He gave them hail for rain, and flaming fire in their land. He smote their vines also…

:) I’m backkkk you all thought you could get rid of me

🛕Pharaoh Tucker with his “Wifes” Sam and Danny🛕

Yes I’m bringing attention to this like why is nobody talking about this????

Now let’s get into the main plot so Danny, Sam and Tucker have to GO and fast ( GIW or bad Fenton au either or. !!!Bonus points!!! If Danny got hurt and than it would make this so much funnier y’all get what I mean in a sec) and they all go to the ghost zone where they meet up with clockwork and he tells them that one of Tuckers earlier reincarnation made a place so in the future he’s good even if he doesn’t remember it so clockwork brings them to what looks like an ancient Egyptian empire with the civilians and the people who live there as the people who died in the past {sorry if this is a bit hard to read I am very tired} and they are brought to the place where clockwork just casually reveals that Tucker is the pharaoh ie: The King and Sam, Tucker and Danny take this very well for them this is a safe place for them to heal and live with the added bonus of helping with Danny’s obsessions (Protection and Space) and after a bit they gain the affection of the people and the…Protection of the people??? Because for the people they see that one of their queen (Danny) was hurt before the royals came here so they get a bit protective and for a bit of information here’s the main jobs of the trio

Tucker taking care of the rules and doing the main running of the empire

Sam takes care of the army and gardens of the empire ( making sure they have enough food and such )

Danny takes care of the people (who grown the most fond of ) and such

So you can see what I’m going for with this now here’s where the JL comes in so the empire was NOT in the ghost zone it is in its own little world but somehow the JL gets tipped off about a triving empire that NOBODY has made contact with so a group ( Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, the flash, green lantern you know the works) goes to make contact and hopefully make allies with them so they go and are taken aback a bit by how much this place is triving and what to meet the people who made this happen so what the JL was expecting was a lest a adult but instead they got what looked like a 16-17 with what looked like two people the same aged sitting next to him on either side (!!!EXRA BONUS POINTS!!! If one of the supers helped Danny before the meeting) and someone makes the dumb decision to ask them where are the REAL rulers and the guards in the room ( who I forgot to mention ) get mad at them and become hostile to them and Sam has to clam them down and that’s all for the plot at the moment

Now on to the details let’s start with tucker I’m thinking about this

( just instead of blue it’s red) and for a head piece I’m thinking the good old classic 

It just fits

Now for Sam I’m thinking is for her outfit

But in darker colors because she’s SAM and for a head piece I’m thinking something like this

Nothing to big because she has to train the army and she’s outside a lot so if it’s anything to big I think it will just be annoying

For Danny this

Mixed with this

Because ye and for his hair piece I’m braining

This I think it looks neat

Now that’s all from me byeee

The First Stanza in the Song of Victory

1 Then Moses and the people of Israel sang this song to the Lord, saying, “I will sing to the Lord, for he has triumphed gloriously;     the horse and his rider he has thrown into the sea. 2 The Lord is my strength and my song,     and he has become my salvation; this is my God, and I will praise him,     my father’s God, and I will exalt him. 3 The Lord is a man of war;     the Lord is his…

[notaplaceofhonour]

I feel like there are two truths, that we rightly celebrated when Pharaoh’s army were drowned, and that at the same time G-d was heartbroken that their creation was drowning—and neither response is wrong.

Both are entirely valid and normal responses to have to the death of evil men (who nevertheless were still people), and you just kinda gotta live with that complexity. like, you can’t expect people not to grieve the death of any part of G-d’s creation, but you also can’t expect people not to sing when their persecutors are gone.

I think G-d made us to feel both, and they made some of us to feel one more than the other, and that’s okay.

[anarchistfrogposting]

“The pyramids are so massive there’s no way ancient Egyptians built that” get a FUCKING GRIP. Ancient Egypt was an extraordinarily stable and well-developed society. It had consistent and reliable access to extremely fertile, arable and highly developed land that employed a massive army of reserve labour in the off season. It had navigable river access to the Mediterranean and coastal access to the Indian Ocean. It was situated right next to the wealthiest parts of the ancient world. Its ENTIRE CULTURE AND RELIGION revolved around the boundary between life and afterlife and the circle of life and death - pyramids started construction far before the pharaohs were even CLOSE to death. There are many MANY examples of protopyramidal structures and direct examples of pyramid construction even outside the reach of the fullest extent of the kingdom of Egypt, in Sudan. Literally what more proof do you need? If there really was strong evidence of alien construction, historians would literally be salivating at the prospect of understanding how that came to be. Denying the incredible human achievement that the pyramids constitute isnt just sad and racist, it’s bullheaded; you have to concede so much direct and tangible evidence to believe they weren’t built by the Egyptians.

[the-catboy-minyan]

Atheist here asking questions about the Moses story, could g*d have found a better way of punishing the pharaoh then killing their children? I feel like there could have been better options?

Mostly I’m curious as to what the interpretation of that is.

well I'm an atheist as well so keep that in mind, but I have no idea.

the story is from thousands of years ago, and many stories from that era include bloodshed (in ways we in the modern world may consider unnecessary).

you have to keep in mind that this punishment was the last one of 10, after 9 other plagues to pressure the pharaoh to release the Israelites. those were: turning the river to blood, a bunch of fucking frogs everywhere (or a giant frog, jumblr had a debate about it), lice, invasion of wild animals, a disease on their livestock, scabies, hail, locusts, and total darkness for three days.

Moses went to Pharaoh after every plague, but he didn't budge until the last one, the death of the firstborns in eygypt. and even after he agreed, he changed his mind and sent his army after the escaping Israelites (which lead to the miracle of the parted sea).

that was not Moses's decision to kill the firstborns, the Israelites didn't cheer for their deaths, and we don't celebrate it. I'd like to remind the audience at home of the start of the story, where the Israelites where slaves to the Egyptians, and the (previous) Pharaoh passed a law to throw every male baby to the nile river, that was a human decision enforced by humans.

many other cultures have their fair share stories of bloodshed being presented as good or even heroic, Judaism shouldn't be expected to be an outlier when it's one of the more ancient religions. not to mention the 10 plagues were never really presented as positive in my opinion, they were a necessary evil to free them from slavery.

thanks for the ask! i hope my answer makes sense. again I'm not religious so I may have gotten some things wrong.
