Abraham Marries Keturah

1 Abraham took another wife, whose name was Ketu′rah. 2 She bore him Zimran, Jokshan, Medan, Mid′ian, Ishbak, and Shuah. 3 Jokshan was the father of Sheba and Dedan. The sons of Dedan were Asshu′rim, Letu′shim, and Le-um′mim. 4 The sons of Mid′ian were Ephah, Epher, Hanoch, Abi′da, and Elda′ah. All these were the children of Ketu′rah. 5 Abraham gave all he had to Isaac. 6 But to the sons of his concubines Abraham gave gifts, and while he was still living he sent them away from his son Isaac, eastward to the east country.

The Death of Abraham

7 These are the days of the years of Abraham’s life, a hundred and seventy-five years. 8 Abraham breathed his last and died in a good old age, an old man and full of years, and was gathered to his people. 9 Isaac and Ish′mael his sons buried him in the cave of Mach-pe′lah, in the field of Ephron the son of Zohar the Hittite, east of Mamre, 10 the field which Abraham purchased from the Hittites. There Abraham was buried, with Sarah his wife. 11 After the death of Abraham God blessed Isaac his son. And Isaac dwelt at Beer-la′hai-roi.

Ishmael’s Descendants

12 These are the descendants of Ish′mael, Abraham’s son, whom Hagar the Egyptian, Sarah’s maid, bore to Abraham. 13 These are the names of the sons of Ish′mael, named in the order of their birth: Neba′ioth, the first-born of Ish′mael; and Kedar, Adbeel, Mibsam, 14 Mishma, Dumah, Massa, 15 Hadad, Tema, Jetur, Naphish, and Ked′emah. 16 These are the sons of Ish′mael and these are their names, by their villages and by their encampments, twelve princes according to their tribes. 17 (These are the years of the life of Ish′mael, a hundred and thirty-seven years; he breathed his last and died, and was gathered to his kindred.) 18 They dwelt from Hav′ilah to Shur, which is opposite Egypt in the direction of Assyria; he settled over against all his people.

The Birth and Youth of Esau and Jacob

19 These are the descendants of Isaac, Abraham’s son: Abraham was the father of Isaac, 20 and Isaac was forty years old when he took to wife Rebekah, the daughter of Bethu′el the Aramean of Paddan-aram, the sister of Laban the Aramean. 21 And Isaac prayed to the Lord for his wife, because she was barren; and the Lord granted his prayer, and Rebekah his wife conceived. 22 The children struggled together within her; and she said, “If it is thus, why do I live?” So she went to inquire of the Lord. 23 And the Lord said to her,

“Two nations are in your womb, and two peoples, born of you, shall be divided; the one shall be stronger than the other, the elder shall serve the younger.”

24 When her days to be delivered were fulfilled, behold, there were twins in her womb. 25 The first came forth red, all his body like a hairy mantle; so they called his name Esau. 26 Afterward his brother came forth, and his hand had taken hold of Esau’s heel; so his name was called Jacob. Isaac was sixty years old when she bore them.

27 When the boys grew up, Esau was a skilful hunter, a man of the field, while Jacob was a quiet man, dwelling in tents. 28 Isaac loved Esau, because he ate of his game; but Rebekah loved Jacob.

Esau Sells His Birthright

29 Once when Jacob was boiling pottage, Esau came in from the field, and he was famished. 30 And Esau said to Jacob, “Let me eat some of that red pottage, for I am famished!” (Therefore his name was called Edom.) 31 Jacob said, “First sell me your birthright.” 32 Esau said, “I am about to die; of what use is a birthright to me?” 33 Jacob said, “Swear to me first.” So he swore to him, and sold his birthright to Jacob. 34 Then Jacob gave Esau bread and pottage of lentils, and he ate and drank, and rose and went his way. Thus Esau despised his birthright. — Genesis 25 | Revised Standard Version (RSV) Revised Standard Version of the Bible, copyright © 1946, 1952, and 1971 the Division of Christian Education of the National Council of the Churches of Christ in the United States of America.

Genesis

Chapter 25

1 Then again Abraham took a wife, and her name was Keturah. 2 And she bare him Zimran, and Jokshan, and Medan, and Midian, and Ishbak, and Shuah. 3 And Jokshan begat Sheba, and Dedan. And the sons of Dedan were Asshurim, and Letushim, and Leummim. 4 And the sons of Midian; Ephah, and Epher, and Hanoch, and Abidah, and Eldaah. All these were the children of Keturah. 5 And Abraham gave all that he had unto Isaac. 6 But unto the sons of the concubines, which Abraham had, Abraham gave gifts, and sent them away from Isaac his son, while he yet lived, eastward, unto the east country. 7 And these are the days of the years of Abraham's life which he lived, an hundred threescore and fifteen years. 8 Then Abraham gave up the ghost, and died in a good old age, an old man, and full of years; and was gathered to his people. 9 And his sons Isaac and Ishmael buried him in the cave of Machpelah, in the field of Ephron the son of Zohar the Hittite, which is before Mamre; 10 The field which Abraham purchased of the sons of Heth: there was Abraham buried, and Sarah his wife. 11 And it came to pass after the death of Abraham, that God blessed his son Isaac; and Isaac dwelt by the well Lahairoi. 12 Now these are the generations of Ishmael, Abraham's son, whom Hagar the Egyptian, Sarah's handmaid, bare unto Abraham: 13 And these are the names of the sons of Ishmael, by their names, according to their generations: the firstborn of Ishmael, Nebajoth; and Kedar, and Adbeel, and Mibsam, 14 And Mishma, and Dumah, and Massa, 15 Hadar, and Tema, Jetur, Naphish, and Kedemah:

16 These are the sons of Ishmael, and these are their names, by their towns, and by their castles; twelve princes according to their nations. 17 And these are the years of the life of Ishmael, an hundred and thirty and seven years: and he gave up the ghost and died; and was gathered unto his people. 18 And they dwelt from Havilah unto Shur, that is before Egypt, as thou goest toward Assyria: and he died in the presence of all his brethren. 19 And these are the generations of Isaac, Abraham's son: Abraham begat Isaac: 20 And Isaac was forty years old when he took Rebekah to wife, the daughter of Bethuel the Syrian of Padanaram, the sister to Laban the Syrian.

21 And Isaac intreated the LORD for his wife, because she was barren: and the LORD was intreated of him, and Rebekah his wife conceived. 22 And the children struggled together within her; and she said, If it be so, why am I thus? And she went to enquire of the LORD. 23 And the LORD said unto her, Two nations are in thy womb, and two manner of people shall be separated from thy bowels; and the one people shall be stronger than the other people; and the elder shall serve the younger.

24 And when her days to be delivered were fulfilled, behold, there were twins in her womb. 25 And the first came out red, all over like an hairy garment; and they called his name Esau. 26 And after that came his brother out, and his hand took hold on Esau's heel; and his name was called Jacob: and Isaac was threescore years old when she bare them.

27 And the boys grew: and Esau was a cunning hunter, a man of the field; and Jacob was a plain man, dwelling in tents. 28 And Isaac loved Esau, because he did eat of his venison: but Rebekah loved Jacob. 29 And Jacob sod pottage: and Esau came from the field, and he was faint:

30 And Esau said to Jacob, Feed me, I pray thee, with that same red pottage; for I am faint: therefore was his name called Edom. 31 And Jacob said, Sell me this day thy birthright. 32 And Esau said, Behold, I am at the point to die: and what profit shall this birthright do to me?

33 And Jacob said, Swear to me this day; and he sware unto him: and he sold his birthright unto Jacob. 34 Then Jacob gave Esau bread and pottage of lentiles; and he did eat and drink, and rose up, and went his way: thus Esau despised his birthright.

White Fang 10/25 -Jack London

Unlike the other’s who had their mother’s red hue, he was exactly like his wolf blooded father’s all gray coat except he had two eyes. (well that’s to be expected) Before his eyes opened, he already knew his brothers, sisters and mother and when they did he only knew of the lair they lived in. Before they did he discovered the cave entrance and felt the light on him drawing him towards it. He and his siblings crawled to it and the desire increased when they could see only being kept back by their mother. With her nudging him with her nose and paw did he first learn pain and to avoid and dodge it. “Before that he had recoiled automatically from hurt as he had crawled automatically toward the light. After that he recoiled from hurt because he knew that it was hurt.” p.48

He was fiercer and louder than the others and caused the most trouble with their mother keeping them inside the cave. His fascination with the light only increased and he would journey to it everyday like a moth believing it to only be a wall with the sun of his world. Inside he knew it was a way out but didn’t know anything about it, that there was an outside at all. The strange thing was his father would walk into the light and disappear, he couldn’t understand it and just accepted it as something his father did as his mother created milk. Unlike men he didn’t think deeply but did come up with conclusions and accepted without question, not why but how, he bumped his nose into a wall and accepted that unlike his father he couldn’t disappear into them and had no desire to find the difference. (there’s a Plato’s Cave feel to this)

Then like creatures in the wild he experienced famine when the meat and milk ceased, and the cubs were still with hunger until the life in them died down. One Eye was desperate and so was the she wolf, leaving the lair to find food and since the Indian camp moved there were no more snares. When the gray cub woke again, he found only one sister left and as food was brought back he grew stronger but she was too weak to eat and her life went out. (yes nature is harsh only the strong survive it’s sad but it’s the way it is) Then, One Eye didn’t come back and the she wolf couldn’t say what she saw, she had followed his scent along the trail and found what remained of him, the lynx had won, she had had found the lynx lair and dared not go in and now avoided the area. She knew the lynx had cubs, a dozen wolves could drive a lynx up a tree but not a lone one, especially when it had cubs to fight for, “But the Wild is the Wild, and motherhood is motherhood, at all times fiercely protective whether in the Wild or out of it;” p.51 For the gray cubs sake she would go into the den.

By the time the she wolf frequently left the den the gray cub knew not to leave by his mother’s paw and the instinct of fear, he had not experienced it yet, but it was passed through generations. “Fear! -that legacy of the Wild which no animal may escape nor exchange for pottage.” p.51 (it means soup or stew I don’t get it) He knew fear, but not what of and accepted it as another restriction of life like a wall or hunger. “-had borne in upon him that all was not freedom in the world, that to life there were limitations and restraints. These limitations and restraints were laws.” p.51 He did not reason like men, only classified as hurt and not hurt and avoided them to enjoy life. Obedience to the law of fear that kept him inside the cave to sleep and keep quiet when his mother was gone.

His fur bristled but he had no knowledge of the wolverine (Logan?) yet knew to fear it and know to hide in terror and silence. His mother growled when she scented the wolverine and inside the cave licked the cub and nuzzled him and he felt like he had escaped a great hurt. There was another force, of growth and with that disobedience (same with human children) with the rush of life that sent him to the cave entrance and found the wall receding from him into the light. The light growing brighter, and fear drove back until he was at the entrance, but growth drove him forward. The light was painfully bright, and his eyes adjusted to see the wall had changed to trees and a stream and mountains and sky. Now he was afraid of so much unknown and he intimidated a snarl to challenge the world. (there’s something valiant about this from a human perspective)

When nothing happened he forgot to snarl and be afraid, what once was fear is now curiosity of the world. He stepped out and fell harshly on his nose and rolled down the slope yipping, eventually he came to a stop and wailed and licked away the clay on his fur. Then he gazed out like the first man on Mars would, (we’re working on it) he was in the unknown world without hurt. And without any foreknowledge he explored his new world. He had forgotten fear and now had curiosity of everything around him, grass, trees, a squirrel that startled him that he scared away bolstering his courage. Fighting and scaring off a bird, alive did all sorts of things, expect the unexpected and be prepared. (For Sensational News~) He moved along the inequal surface, running into twigs and stubbing himself and every step he learned how to better walk, his movements and limitations and the distance between objects.

He didn’t know that he was a born hunter and blundered upon meat of a parmington nest of seven chicks. At first, he was frightened of their noises (scary birdies doing him a frighten) then grew bolder, tormenting them by stepping on them. Then when he had one in his mouth, he felt hunger and closed his jaws to hear bones crunch and the taste of warm blood. Meat, and better since it was alive so he ate the whole brood and then was attacked by the mother and he grew furious snagging a wing of his first fight and now had a lust to kill, destroyed little live things and was happy to destroy a big live thing, new and thrilling like nothing else he’d known before. (don’t judge him he is a predator) The parmington tried to drag him back into the bush, he pulled her into the open while she fought while his blood was surging. “This was living, though he did not know it. He was realizing his own meaning in the world; he was doing that for which he was made-killing meat and battling to kill it.” p.57 The parmington was exhausted but kept pecking at him till his nose was sore and he let go and retreated near the bushes to rest until something terrible and impending had him hide just being missed by a hawk. (yeah hawks will go after puppies small dogs and cats)

He did see the parmington come out of the bush and learned a lesson when the hawk swooped back down for it. After a long time, he had come out of the bush having learned live things could be eaten and larger ones could give hurt. He still wanted to fight but the parmington was taken by the hawk, so he went to look for more. He came to a stream and having never seen water before walked in and almost drowned and understood the instinctive fear of death. “It was the very essence of the unknown; it was the sum of the terrors of the unknown, the one culminating and unthinkable catastrophe that could happen to him, about which he knew nothing and about which he feared everything.”p.58 (humans are the same way) He comes to the surface and swims to the bank but is caught in the current with him getting dunked and slammed into rocks (how did he survive this) until an eddy brings him to shore. Having learned water is not alive but moves and not as solid as earth now he would distrust appearances and would have to know a thing before he could put his faith into it.

After his adventure he wanted his mother and looked for the cave feeling lonely and helpless. Between some bushes he heard a cry and found a weasel (wild cat snake) and its kit, he paws at it and is attacked by the mother. He backs off and the weasel takes the kit back to the bushes. The gray cub sat and whimpered learning that for how small a weasel was it was vicious. The weasel came back and began to approach him then attacked. He tried to fight back but then struggled to escape her teeth in his neck. That would have been the end of him if the she wolf hadn’t come through the thicket. The weasel lunged at the she wolf biting her jaw but she flung it into the air where she bit down and killed it. (cool trick) The she wolf seemed happier at finding him than him finding her and after nuzzling they ate the weasel and wet back to the cave.

After two days he went out again and found the baby weasel and ate it too (sad but that’s nature for you) and he explored without getting lost for the next few days. He learned when to be bold and cautious most of the time and was a demon when finding parmingtons and snarled at squirrels and moosebirds. He knew of danger, like hawks and hid in the bush. He was growing like his mother, agile and swift and sure of his gait. His desire to kill also grew but squirrels climbed, and birds flew. He respected his mother who would bring him meat and was fearless and was impressed by her power that compelled obedience from him with her fangs.

Then, another famine without meat or milk, he had hunted in play but now there was an earnestness about it and he studied the animals to learn their habits and how to catch them and the day when the hawk didn’t send him to the bushes. Then, the famine broke when his mother brought a lynx kitten for him to eat, (again it’s nature) she had the rest of them. With a full belly he fell asleep to be woken by his mother’s snarling, in the cave entrance was the lynx mother. He snarled at his mother’s side for her to push him behind her and when the lynx moved, she pounced on it. He didn’t see much of the fight, but he soon sunk his teeth into the lynx’s hindleg holding it back. The two mothers separated, and the lynx slashed at the gray cub on the shoulder and the battle started again with him on its leg. It was over when the lynx was dead and the she wolf too injured to move for a week, eating the lynx they killed until the she wolf could go on the meat trail again.

They gray cub limped for a while with a stiff shoulder but now he went in the world with confidence most of his timidness was gone and the unknown didn’t terrorize him anymore. He followed his mother on the meat trail (I think these are like animal trail like dee have) and he learn to play his part and learned of his kind and other kind and learned the law of meat, meat was life. “Life itself was meat. Life lived on life. There were the eaters and the eaten. The law was: EAT OR BE EATEN.” p.66 (it’s practically been that way since the dawn of time) He ate the parmington chick the hawk ate the parmington hen and would have eaten him, now he wanted to eat the hawk. He ate the lynx kitten; the lynx mother would have eaten him if they didn’t kill and eat her. He was a killer and meat would run from him or turn the tables.

If he were a man he would have thought of life being a voracious appetite of pursuer and pursued, hunt, hunted, eat, eaten, chaos and slaughter endless. But he was single purpose of one thought or desire, there were other laws for him to learn, to hunt was a thrill and the unknown terror was what allowed him to live. There was satisfaction to have a full stomach and sleep breaks from toil, this was life and he was happy in the hostile environment. (of course it’s all he’s known he knows no other life)

It was his fault, he had been careless on his way to the stream and now saw and smelled five live things, men, they did not move but sat there silent and ominous. Usually he would run but there was a counter instinct of awe for he was little and weak, and they were a power beyond his. “In dim ways he recognized in man the animal that had fought itself o primacy over the other animals of the Wild.” p.68 He recognized it from the eyes of his ancestors that circled campfires. (some people theorize that man and wolves evolved together) If he was fully grown, he would have run, but as a pup he cowered in submission. One of the men went over to him and the gray cub cowered lower. When the man reached out, he snapped at him and the man remarked at his white fangs, the others laughed, and the man tried to pick him up (he’s picking up a wild wolf cub when the mother could be near) and he battles instincts of yield and fight. He yielded till the hand came close and he snapped then is clouted on the head several times. (how would you like to be beaten upside the head)

The men laugh (cause he’s an asshole) as the cub yelps in terror and hurt until he heard his mother coming to save him. In her rages the cub bounded to her and the men stepped back. She was menacing until one of them called out Kiche, (I’ve heard it pronounced Key-chey and Keech so idk) and she wilted and made peace signs of couching down to the cub’s confusion. The man came up and touched her head without her biting and the others came pawing at her and the cub saw no danger in their actions and went to crouch by his mother. They talk of how she is part wolf and had run away a year ago during the famine to run with wolves and the gray cub was evidence of it. When another reaches out, he snarls and is struck back into submission. The man says he’s more wolf than Kiche and calls him White Fang (ey, he said it) because of his teeth and declares him his since Kiche belonged to his brother who’s dead now. (I see you’re in deep mourning)

The cub now with a name watched as Gray Beaver took a stick and tied his mother to a tree and White Fang goes to sit by her. Another man approaches and he rolls on his back as he’s rubbed and his nature revolted against such helplessness, but also felt pleasure and when the man leaves all fear dies down in him and this fearless companionship with man was his. A few minutes later the rest of the tribe appears with camp equipment and dogs that carried up to thirty pounds of packs. White Fang had never seen dogs before and felt they were his kin but different. (well he’s not wrong) Then the dogs rushed White Fang and his mother, and they fought, and the men beat back the dogs. White Fang saw the men save him and felt justice, men were makers and executors of law and enforced it with dead things, an unusual power it was godlike. Though he did not know about gods he was in the same awe as a man would be at one.

After that things die down and White Fang thinks of the pack and their cruelty and his introduction, (you need to keep dogs a good distance away in neutral territory so they can acclimate to each other without tension) he didn’t know of others besides One Eye, his mother and himself and here were many more of his kind. And now resentment that they had tried to destroy him and resented his mother tied with a stick even if it was done by the superior men, yet he knew nothing of bondage. “Freedom to roam and run and lie down at will had been his heritage; and here it was being infringed upon.” p.73 His mother was restricted by the stick and so was he since he still needed her side.

He didn’t like it and still didn’t like it when the men rose and marched on with a kid leading Kiche behind him and farther White Fang had ever gone, where the stream ran into the Mackenzie River is where camp was made. White Fang was in wonder with all they achieved, their mastery and power over everything to change the world. Everything impressed him, how they turned sticks and fur into teepees, everywhere was a quick growing form and he was afraid of them. But this fear passed when he saw people going in and out without harm but dogs being driven out. (dogs see themselves as members of the household/pack and are stressed when kept apart like outdoors all the time) He left Kiche to get close to one, curiously his nose touched it and nothing happened and it smelled of man and nothing happened when he bit it. He tugged harder and harder shaking the teepee until a woman chased him off, he went back to Kiche not afraid anymore.

A while later he strayed from Kiche who couldn’t follow and an older puppy approached him, Lip-lip, (really who’s naming these dogs) a bully. White Fang met him friendly but stiffened when Lip-lip became hostile and they circled and bristled for several minutes until Lip-lip struck him on the shoulder the lynx injured. In anger White Fang was on Lip-lip but Lip-lip was in dozens of fights and fought until White Fang ran back to his mother. Their first fight was not their last and enemies to always clash. Kiche wanted White Fang to stay with her but he was too curious and went to explore again and found Gray Beaver working and approached him.

Women and children were carrying sticks to him and White Fang touched his knee forgetting how much power he had. Then he watched as mist began to rise from the sticks and moss and it moved like it was alive. The fire drew him closer and he licked it then scrambled back yelping and Kiche raged at the end of her lead because she couldn’t get to him. Gray Beaver laughed and told everyone, and they laughed too (because they’re assholes) leaving White Fang to whine in pain. This was the worst hurt he ever had and every time he cried there was more laughter. Both his nose and his tongue were burned and when he tried to lick the pain was worse and he cried more helpless than ever.

Then he felt shame and knew the meaning of laughter. “It is not given us to know how some animals know laughter, and know when they are being laughed at; but it was this same way that White Fang knew it.”p.76 He fled from being laughed at, that hurt his spirit, he ran to Kiche still raging but the one not laughing at him. At twilight (I can’t even see that word without having flashbacks) White Fang was still with his mother, he was still hurt but now felt homesick for the cave. There were too many people making noises and the dogs with their uproars. The air stirred with life changing in intensity and got on his nerves making him restless with worry. He watched the men come and go, like god’s mastery of things alive and not alive, making things obey, making things move, making life and fire.

Every day was a new experience for White Fang and when his mother was tied, he went investigating and learning from the men and not feeling contempt from their power. Men feel grief at their gods alters crumbling and being overthrown, but to a dog this never came, unlike man’s invisible gods, to a dog theirs were living flesh no effort to believe them as they stand there. (I read a post on tumblr that compared humans to the fae of animals) It was to White Fang who saw his mother align with them when called by her name he did the same obeying, getting out of the way and coming when called, it was this or be punished. His body was theirs to command and beat and while he disliked learning it, he learned to like it as his responsibilities were in another’s hand. “This in itself was compensation, for it is always easier to lean upon another than to stand alone.”p.79 He didn’t learn this all at once, there were days he went to the edge of camp like something was calling him then went back to Kiche’s side. He learned the ways of the camp and the injustice of the other dogs, men just, children cruel, women kindly and to leave dog mothers alone.

But older and stronger Lip-lip became the bane of his life. White Fang fought but he was outclassed, whenever he left his mother’s side Lip-lip would appear and when no men were around, he would attack. (you’d think someone would be responsible and keep the dogs apart or discipline Lip-lip) Though, White Fang would lose his spirit didn’t and his temper became worse and the playful puppy side lessened. As Lip-lip wouldn’t let him near or play with the others there was no outlet and he grew up older than his age, he became a cunning, clever thief of food, carefully sneaking around camp, watching and devising ways to avoid Lip-lip. This was the way he got his first revenge, like Kiche did in the first famine White Fang lured Lip-lip to Kiche’s jaws. Running just so ahead of him and Lip-lip forgot about caution until it was too late running into Kiche, despite being tied he couldn’t get away from her fangs. He finally rolled away from her mauled and wailing then White Fang came in biting his leg but there was no fight left in Lip-lip and he ran with White Fang following only being driven off when stones were thrown at him.

When Kiche wouldn’t run off Gray Beaver released her, and White Fang happily followed her around camp and Lip-lip kept his distance and ignored White Fang’s challenges, at least he could wait for White Fang to be alone. Kiche and White Fang strayed into the wood near camp and White Fang tried to take her to the cave, but she wouldn’t move and turned back to camp. They both knew something called to them in the open, but she heard the louder call of fire and man, a call for only wolves to answer and wild dogs. Kiche turned back to camp, the god’s grip was stronger than the stick and wouldn’t let go. (40,000 years of domestication won’t easily disappear) White Fang sat whimpering, the smells reminding him of his freedom before bondage, but his mother’s call was still stronger than man’s or the wild. He wasn’t independent yet and followed her stopping sometimes to listen to the forest’s call.

In the wild time with a mother is short and with man sometimes shorter (sometimes people will get rid of puppies right at 8 weeks) and Gray Beaver was in debt to Three Eagles who was going on a trip to Great Slave Lake and Kiche was part of the payment. White Fang saw her on the canoe and tried to follow but Three Eagles knocked him back. When it went off White Fang swam after ignoring Gray Beaver’s calls as he was too afraid to lose his mother. But the gods were obeyed, and Gray Beaver went after him in his canoe and took him by the nape and beat him severely. White Fang yelped in fear then felt anger and snarled only making the beating worse. It went on for a while, but it had to end and White Fang was first as sticks and stones were caresses compared to this and his fear turned to terror as he continuously yelped. (guy treats a puppy like that how do you think he treats his family) Gray Beaver finally stopped and flung him in the canoe and as he paddled back White Fang’s nature surged and he bit Gray Beaver’s foot. The beating before was nothing compared to this one nor was Gray Beaver’s anger or White Fang’s fear as the wooden paddle was used, being flung into the canoe and kicked. (does anybody have a wooden bat with nails in it I need it for reasons) White Fang learned never to bite the master, “That was evidently the crime of crimes, the one offense there was no condoning nor overlooking.” p.84 (if you’re beating a dog it has every right to defend itself just like a person)

They make it back and Gray Beaver flung White Fang ashore where he lands whimpering and trembling, where Lip-lip had watched it all and makes an attack with White Fang too weak to fight back. Gray Beaver kicked Lip-lip a dozen feet away (that puppy is now dead) and despite his hurt White Fang felt pleasure at the justice and followed Gray Beaver to the teepee. That night White Fang missed his mother and whimpered getting another beating, after he was quiet and went to the woods to wail, he would have gone but his mother’s memory was here. The men went and came back, so she will, and he waited for her. (oh baby…)

The bondage wasn’t completely unhappy there were always things happening and the gods always did curious things and he learned how to be with Gray Beaver, “Obedience, rigid, undeviating obedience, was what was expected of him; and in return he escaped beatings and his existence was tolerated.”p.85 (this isn’t a good relationship) Gray Beaver sometimes gave him meat and defended him against the other dogs and that meat was worth more than from someone else. Maybe it was his hand, justice, or his power, or all that influenced White Fang to form an attachment. There were also shackles of sticks, stone and hand that his nature brought on. It was developing in him that with the misery of the camp was also endearment, but White Fang was unaware of it only grieving Kiche and of returning to the wild.

AND again Avraham took a woman, and her name was Qeturah. And she bore him את eth- Zimran, and את eth- Yoqshan, and את eth-Medan, and את eth- Midyan, and את eth- Yishbaq, and את eth-Shuach. And Yoqshan begat את eth- Sheva, and את eth-Dedan. And the sons of Dedan were Ashshuriym, and Letushiym, and Le'ummiym. And the sons of Midyan; Eyphah, and Epher, and Chanok, and Aviyda, and Elda`ah. All these were the children of Qeturah. And Avraham gave את eth-all that he had unto Yitschaq. But unto the sons of the concubines, which Avraham had, Avraham gave gifts, and sent them away from Yitschaq his son, while he yet lived, eastward, unto the east country. And these are the days of the years of Avraham's life which he lived, a hundred threescore and fifteen years. Then Avraham gave up his ruach, and died in a good old age, an old man, and full of years; and was gathered to his people. And his sons Yitschaq and Yishma'el buried him in the cave of Makpelah, in the field of Ephron the son of Tsochar the Chittiy, which is before Mamre; The field which Avraham purchased of the sons of Cheth: there was Avraham buried, and Sarah his woman. And it came to pass after the death of Avraham, that ELOHIYM blessed his son את eth-Yitschaq; and Yitschaq dwelt by the well Be'er La-Chai Ro'iy. Now these are the generations of Yishma'el, Avraham's son, whom Ha'ger the Mitsriy, Sarah's handmaid, bore unto Avraham: And these are the names of the sons of Yishma'el, by their names, according to their generations: the firstborn of Yishma'el, Nevayoth; and Qedar, and Adbe'el, and Mivsam, And Mishma, and Dumah, and Massa, Hadar, and Teyma, Yetur, Naphiysh, and Qedemah: These are the sons of Yishma'el, and these are their names, by their towns, and by their castles; twelve princes according to their nations. And these are the years of the life of Yishma'el, a hundred and thirty and seven years: and he gave up his ruach and died; and was gathered unto his people. And they dwelt from Chaviylah unto Shur, that is before Mitsrayim, as you go toward Ashshurah: and he died in the presence of all his brethren. And these are the generations of Yitschaq, Avraham's son: Avraham begat את eth- Yitschaq: And Yitschaq was forty years old when he took את eth- Rivqah to be his woman, the daughter of Bethu'el the Arammiy of Paddan Aram, the sister to Lavan the Arammiy. And Yitschaq intreated YAHUAH for his woman, because she was barren: and YAHUAH was intreated of him, and Rivqah his woman conceived. And the children struggled together within her; and she said, If it be so, why am I thus? And she went to inquire of את eth-YAHUAH. And YAHUAH said unto her, Two nations are in your womb, and two manner of people shall be separated from your generation; and the one people shall be stronger than the other people; and the elder shall serve the younger. And when her days to be delivered were fulfilled, behold, there were twins in her womb. And the first came out red, all over like a hairy garment; and they called his name Esau. And after that came his brother out, and his hand took hold on Esau's heel; and his name was called Ya`aqov: and Yitschaq was threescore years old when she bore them. And the boys grew: and Esau was a cunning hunter, a man of the field; and Ya`aqov was an upright man, dwelling in tents. And Yitschaq loved את eth-Esau, because he did eat of his venison: but Rivqah loved את eth-Ya`aqov. And Ya`aqov sod pottage: and Esau came from the field, and he was faint: And Esau said to El-Ya`aqov, Feed me, I pray you, with that same red pottage; for I am faint: therefore was his name called Edom. And Ya`aqov said, Sell me this day your את eth-birthright. And Esau said, Behold, I am at the point to die: and what profit shall this birthright do to me? And Ya`aqov said, Swear to me this day; and he swore unto him: and he sold his את eth-birthright unto Ya`aqov. Then Ya`aqov gave Esau bread and pottage of lentiles; and he did eat and drink, and rose up, and went his way: thus Esau despised his את eth-birthright.

Soupe

7 Course Meal

- Amuse-bouche - Soupe - Verdura - Plat principal - Palette cleanser type of experience/course - Dessert - Fromage et fruits

Definition

Soup is a primarily liquid food, generally served warm or hot, that is made by combining ingredients of meat or vegetables with stock, or water. Hot soups are additionally characterized by boiling solid ingredients in liquids in a pot until the flavors are extracted, forming a broth.

Soupe facts:

Soup has played a role of bringing communities together throughout time soup has had integral roles in society in human history, in events like

When food was scarce- it being filling easy to make and cheap-

Since it was made from simple ingredients, it was easy to digest by both the sick and healthy

Earliest Version of Soup

After Invention of waterproof containers- soup moved from being gruel and watery to be pottage, broth or porridge.

Cultural associations

Introduction of different vegetables, making the food more hospitable

Introduction of meat and fish

Quality improved by the advance of agricultural practices

“Soup was primarily left to the poor, partly because of fuel. Roasting was for the noble during the Renaissance as the classes were hugely divided. But because of the careful preparation of soup, it was not going anywhere as many of the old recipes have been passed on through generations to our dinner tables today.”

“After a few decades, soup evolved as the cookery became more diversified and artistic.”

The word soup comes from French soupe ("soup", "broth"), which comes through Vulgar Latin suppa ("bread soaked in broth") from a Germanic source, from which also comes the word "sop", a piece of bread used to soak up soup or a thick stew.

When warm soup is consumed at the beginning of the main meal, the various digestive juices are secreted in the stomach & intestine which helps in proper digestion of main meal & after.

Soup is said to be as old as the history of cooking. The earliest soup dates back to 20,000 BC in Xianrendong Cave China where the ancient pottery showed signs of scorch marks which suggests that the pot must have been making hot soup.

It is thought that ancient soup makers simply dug a hole in the ground, lined it with animal skin, and used it to boil water using hot stones. This practice dates back to the Neanderthals who used to boil bones and render fats that would prevent protein poisoning. This cooking method resulted in a drinkable broth.

In the early middle ages, soup continued to play an integral role in society.

When food was scarce, soup was made by dumping all sorts of ingredients in the pot and boiling the contents. The soup was filling and cheap, making it a convenient food item for both the rich and the poor. Since it was made from simple ingredients, it was easy to digest by both the sick and healthy.

In the 16th century, the French began using the word restaurant to refer to the soup that was sold by vendors in the streets. This soup was advertised as “restoratif” meaning to restore. It was a typical dish sold to help restore energy or heal fatigue.

Every culture had its version of soup. From the French Onion to the Russian Borscht, Chinese WonTon,, every soup had its unique flavour regarding its place of origin.

Within a 12 course meal soup if often the third course after Hors-d'oeuvres and Amuse-bouche. Within a 7 course meal soup is often the second course provided.

Objects and spatial conditions:

Often there is a designated soup spoon towards your right on the table. The proper way to eat soup is Dip the spoon sideways into the soup at the near edge of the bowl, then skim from the front of the bowl to the back. Sip from the side of the spoon, avoid improper table manners and do not slurp.

Genesis chapter 25

Then again Abraham took a wife, and her name was Keturah.

And she bare him Zimran, and Jokshan, and Medan, and Midian, and Ishbak, and Shuah.

And Jokshan begat Sheba, and Dedan. And the sons of Dedan were Asshurim, and Letushim, and Leummim.

And the sons of Midian; Ephah, and Epher, and Hanoch, and Abida, and Eldaah. All these were the children of Keturah.

And Abraham gave all that he had unto Isaac.

But unto the sons of the concubines, which Abraham had, Abraham gave gifts, and sent them away from Isaac his son, while he yet lived, eastward, unto the east country.

And these are the days of the years of Abraham's life which he lived, an hundred threescore and fifteen years.

Then Abraham gave up the ghost, and died in a good old age, an old man, and full of years; and was gathered to his people.

And his sons Isaac and Ishmael buried him in the cave of Machpelah, in the field of Ephron the son of Zohar the Hittite, which is before Mamre;

The field which Abraham purchased of the sons of Heth: there was Abraham buried, and Sarah his wife.

And it came to pass after the death of Abraham, that God blessed his son Isaac; and Isaac dwelt by the well Lahairoi.

Now these are the generations of Ishmael, Abraham's son, whom Hagar the Egyptian, Sarah's handmaid, bare unto Abraham:

And these are the names of the sons of Ishmael, by their names, according to their generations: the firstborn of Ishmael, Nebajoth; and Kedar, and Adbeel, and Mibsam,

And Mishma, and Dumah, and Massa,

Hadar, and Tema, Jetur, Naphish, and Kedemah:

These are the sons of Ishmael, and these are their names, by their towns, and by their castles; twelve princes according to their nations.

And these are the years of the life of Ishmael, an hundred and thirty and seven years: and he gave up the ghost and died; and was gathered unto his people.

And they dwelt from Havilah unto Shur, that is before Egypt, as thou goest toward Assyria: and he died in the presence of all his brethren.

And these are the generations of Isaac, Abraham's son: Abraham begat Isaac:

And Isaac was forty years old when he took Rebekah to wife, the daughter of Bethuel the Syrian of Padanaram, the sister to Laban the Syrian.

And Isaac intreated the LORD for his wife, because she was barren: and the LORD was intreated of him, and Rebekah his wife conceived.

And the children struggled together within her; and she said, If it be so, why am I thus? And she went to enquire of the LORD.

And the LORD said unto her, Two nations are in thy womb, and two manner of people shall be separated from thy bowels; and the one people shall be stronger than the other people; and the elder shall serve the younger.

And when her days to be delivered were fulfilled, behold, there were twins in her womb.

And the first came out red, all over like an hairy garment; and they called his name Esau.

And after that came his brother out, and his hand took hold on Esau's heel; and his name was called Jacob: and Isaac was threescore years old when she bare them.

And the boys grew: and Esau was a cunning hunter, a man of the field; and Jacob was a plain man, dwelling in tents.

And Isaac loved Esau, because he did eat of his venison: but Rebekah loved Jacob.

And Jacob sod pottage: and Esau came from the field, and he was faint:

And Esau said to Jacob, Feed me, I pray thee, with that same red pottage; for I am faint: therefore was his name called Edom.

And Jacob said, Sell me this day thy birthright.

And Esau said, Behold, I am at the point to die: and what profit shall this birthright do to me?

And Jacob said, Swear to me this day; and he sware unto him: and he sold his birthright unto Jacob.

Then Jacob gave Esau bread and pottage of lentiles; and he did eat and drink, and rose up, and went his way: thus Esau despised his birthright.

Esau/Edom is the modern day Caucasian (White Man)! Many unlearned "Christian churches" and "religious sects" think and teach that the European Caucasians came from Japhet because they don’t know history or the Bible. Ask them what Scripture proves Japhet's skin color was different from Noah, Shem or Ham? None. We shall prove that Caucasians are Edomites, the sons and daughters of Esau - Edom.Gen 25:19 And these are the generations of Isaac, Abraham’s son: Abraham begat Isaac:Gen 25:20 And Isaac was forty years old when he took Rebekah to wife, the daughter of Bethuel the Syrian of Padanaram, the sister to Laban the Syrian.Gen 25:21 And Isaac intreated the most High for his wife, because she was barren: and the most High was intreated of him, and Rebekah his wife conceived.Gen 25:22 And the children struggled together within her; and she said, If it be so, why am I thus? And she went to enquire of the most High.Meaning "if the Lord has blessed me why am I having trouble in my pregnancy"?Gen 25:23 And the most High said unto her, Two nations are in thy womb, and two manner of people shall be separated from thy bowels; and the one people shall be stronger than the other people; and the elder shall serve the younger.Notice the most High says two nations are in thy womb meaning these two boys will be the fathers of two manner/two different nations, two nationalities, meaning two races. And they shall be two separate nations; one nation (Israel) shall be stronger than the other nation (Edom); and the elder child (Esau) will be a servant to the younger (Jacob).Gen 25:24 And when her days to be delivered were fulfilled, behold, there were twins in her womb.Not identical twins but fraternal twins (remember they were two different children). Gen 25:25 And the first came out red, all over like an hairy garment; and they called his name Esau.Notice it mentions the firstborn/the elder child’s color because he was different from his mother, father and all other people from the time of Adam. Genesis 2:7 And the most High God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul. "of the dust of the ground".. meaning shades of brown.Esau is red in color, the blood shows in his skin (there is no such thing as white people, they are red) and he’s a hairy people. No wonder all these evil things in the world such as RED Army, RED Cross, RED neck, anyways, back to the topic. Gen 25:26 And after that came his brother out, and his hand took hold on Esau’s heel; and his name was called Jacob: and Isaac was threescore years old when she bare them.Do you notice Jacob's color is not mentioned. Because he looked like his mother and father and all the other people on the earth since the time of Adam.Gen 25:27 And the boys grew: and Esau was a cunning hunter, a man of the field; and Jacob was a plain man, dwelling in tents.Gen 25:28 And Isaac loved Esau, because he did eat of his venison: but Rebekah loved Jacob.Gen 25:29 And Jacob sod pottage: and Esau came from the field, and he was faint:Gen 25:30 And Esau said to Jacob, Feed me, I pray thee, with that same red pottage; for I am faint: therefore was his name called Edom.The word Edom means “red”. What do so called Black people call Caucasians down south? Rednecks, but not just their neck is red, they are red from the top of their heads to the souls of their feet. So Esau gave up his birthright for red rare meat inside pottage. He did not appreciate the fact that he was the first born, therefore he had no faith in the most High. Gen 27:38 And Esau said unto his father, Hast thou but one blessing, my father? bless me, even me also, O my father. And Esau lifted up his voice, and wept.Gen 27:39 And Isaac his father answered and said unto him, Behold, thy dwelling shall be the fatness of the earth, and of the dew of heaven from above; Meaning Edom was blessed to live in high places, meaning mountains and caves. (today in skyscrapers and giant buildings). Gen 27:40 And by thy sword shalt thou live, and shalt serve thy brother; and it shall come to pass when thou shalt have the dominion, that thou shalt break his yoke from off thy neck.By the sword, they conquered nations and removed nations from their ancient homes and relocated them under Alexander the great. Esau even conquered and relocated the original Japhetic peoples of Javan/Greece and became “the Greeks”.Esau broke the yoke off from off his neck in. 2Ch 21:8 In his days the Edomites revolted from under the dominion of Judah, and made themselves a king.2Ch 21:9 Then Jehoram went forth with his princes, and all his chariots with him: and he rose up by night, and smote the Edomites which compassed him in, and the captains of the chariots.2Ch 21:10 So the Edomites revolted from under the hand of Judah unto this day. The same time also did Libnah revolt from under his hand; because he had forsaken the most High God of his fathers.Mal 1:2 I have loved you, saith the most High. Yet ye say, Wherein hast thou loved us? Was not Esau Jacob’s brother? saith the most High: yet I loved Jacob,Mal 1:3 And I hated Esau, and laid his mountains and his heritage waste for the dragons of the wilderness.Mal 1:4 Whereas Edom saith, We are impoverished, but we will return and build the desolate places; thus saith the most High of hosts, They shall build, but I will throw down; and they shall call them, The border of wickedness, and, The people against whom the most High hath indignation for ever.The most High calls Esau "the border of wickedness", indeed Esau/Edom funds, leads and promotes the worst of wickedness we see today: Pornography, abortion, homosexuality, lesbianism, transgender, immorality, air pollution, contamination, deforestation, ethnic cleansing and extinction of animals, drugs, diseases, eugenics, public satanism and constant blasphemous behavior against the most High AHAYAH, the God of Abraham. Without forgetting the wars and genocides around the world. Esau became impoverished during the dark ages, between 193AD-1453AD when Black people ruled and reigned in modern Europe.They returned and built the desolate places during the renaissance era which means “rebirth”.Rom 9:11 (For the children being not yet born, neither having done any good or evil, that the purpose of God according to election might stand, not of works, but of him that calleth;)Rom 9:12 It was said unto her, The elder shall serve the younger.Rom 9:13 As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated.Heb 12:16 Lest there be any fornicator, or profane person, as Esau, who for one morsel of meat sold his birthright.Heb 12:17 For ye know how that afterward, when he would have inherited the blessing, he was rejected: for he found no place of repentance, though he sought it carefully with tears.Proving repentance is not for everyone.Oba 1:1 The vision of Obadiah. Thus saith the Lord GOD concerning Edom; We have heard a rumour from the most High, and an ambassador is sent among the heathen, Arise ye, and let us rise up against her in battle.Prophetic for these times we live in when one of the heathen leaders among the nations such as Persia (Iran) will convince the nations to rise up against America.Oba 1:2 Behold, I have made thee small among the heathen: thou art greatly despised.Oba 1:3 The pride of thine heart hath deceived thee, thou that dwellest in the clefts of the rock, whose habitation is high; that saith in his heart, Who shall bring me down to the ground?Proving Edom is a proud race of people and that pride has deceived all of them. They dwelled in the clefts of the rocks of Mt. Seir, called PETRA today, and then the rocks of the Caucus Mountains of Georgia, southern Russia. Hence the term “Caucasian”, this means cave dweller.They were driven forth from among men, (they cried after them as after a thief) To dwell in the cliffs of the valleys, in caves of the earth, and in the rocks. Among the bushes they brayed; under the nettles they were gathered together. They were children of fools, yea, children of base men: they were viler than the earth. And now am I their song, yea, I am their byword. Job 30 : 5 - 9 Notice how similar Mt. Seir looks like Wall Street, ancient Greek and Roman architecture, and similar political offices in many Edomite countries such as Great Britain, France, Russia, Spain, Germany, and of course the United States of America. Esau’s habitations are high because of the skyscrapers they like to build; it reminds them of living in the clefts of the rocks. Their pride asks, “who shall bring me down to the ground? Meaning "who can conquer us?” Because of their missile technology, and their weaponry (THE SWORD).Oba 1:4 Though thou exalt thyself as the eagle, and though thou set thy nest among the stars, thence will I bring thee down, saith the most High. What was and is the symbol of ancient Greece, Rome and now America? The eagle.They set their nest among the stars in 1969 when claimed they "landed" on the moon and declared “THE EAGLE HAS LANDED”, this also proves why they are filled with pride, their "scientific" technology, which has been destroying the earth. Obadiah verses 1-4 is technically describing Edom’s main and last kingdom - America.Now let’s go to the end of this matter, when the 12 tribes of Israel are gathered together again.Oba 1:18 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 kindle in them, and devour them; and there shall not be any remaining of the house of Esau; for the most High hath spoken it.Do you understand the prophecy? There shall be none remaining of Esau, saith the most High AHAYAH, the God of the Hebrews. Oba 1:19 And they of the south shall possess the mount of Esau; and they of the plain the Philistines: and they shall possess the fields of Ephraim, and the fields of Samaria: and Benjamin shall possess Gilead.Oba 1:20 And the captivity of this host of the children of Israel shall possess that of the Canaanites, even unto Zarephath; and the captivity of Jerusalem, which is in Sepharad, shall possess the cities of the south.Oba 1:21 And saviours shall come up on mount Zion to judge the mount of Esau; and the kingdom shall be the most High’s. Proving the last ruling kingdom is Esau’s and then the Kingdom of Almighty God of the Hebrews AHAYAH (I AM) will be established.2 Esdras 6:8 “And he said unto me, From Abraham unto Isaac, when Jacob and Esau were born of him, Jacob’s hand held first the heel of Esau.6:9 For Esau is the end of the world, and Jacob is the beginning of it that followeth.”(Added originally in the 1611 King James Bible, removed by the Roman Catholics (Esau himself). This explains the meaning of baby Jacob grabbing the heal of Esau. Further proving this last kingdom is Esau/Edom and the Lord’s kingdom comes soon.BEWARE the BEAST MAN, for he is the devil’s pawn. Alone among AHAYAH’S (I AM) creations, he kills for sport, lust and greed. Yea, he will murder his brother Jacob to possess his brother’s land. Let him not breed in great numbers, for he will make a desert of his home and yours. Shun him; drive him back into his mountain lair. STUDY HIM, as he has studied you. Although you intend him ‘No Harm’, without thought nor hesitation, he will MURDER you, your family and your offspring as swift as the storm, and test his weapons and diseases as if you were his lab rat. For he, EDOM, will show his hatred towards his brother JACOB every time; for he knows who you are: So called Negroes, Natives, Latinos and Aborigines - House of Israel! Wait for the Ancient of Days! Be still…. vigilant and learn to become a ‘Vagarbond’, ready to change locations as swift as lion. WARN your children; for he, EDOM, is the harbinger of DEATH. He is the Eagle of Obadiah, Esau of Malachi, of Rome, Idumea (Edom), Khazaria, Amalek, and of the CAUCUS MOUNTAINS of EUROPE. With his STAR of MOLOCH & FLAG of Eagle; he kills for sport. He goes by many names. He is a liar, trickster and dangerous. Just as his father Esau, he too, hates you with a perfect hatred !He is EDOM - Modern Day ROME/UN/EU/USA!!!BEWARE !(Revelation 2:9,3:9)!
