2 Kings 23:21-23 (Josiah (Yoshiyahu) restores Pesakh)

Who are the Prophets and visionaries that can translate and transform all this text from the Torah-of-Old to the Torah-as-New, from the language of old and its old understandings fixed and founded in materia, to the quantum mechanical atomic words in multiple states and places and times, to reveal the Eternal Torah-as-Truth?
Just one example: the Hebrew world “melekh” we translate as “king.” Now we can see that “melekh” more accurately means “the consciousness that permeates all.” Now consider the meaning of “*Melech haOlam.*”
*-* Hebrew: melekh of the world/eternity

In the next episode we begin to sit in on some notable seders.

About the Author
I am a writer, educator, artist, and artisan. My poetry is devoted to composing long narrative poems that explore the clash between the real and the ideal, in the lives of historical figures and people I have known. Some of the titles of my books are: The Song uv Elmallahz Kumming, A Pilgimmage tu Jerusalem, The Pardaes Dokkumen, The Atternen Juez Talen. You can listen to podcasts of my Eternal Jew posts on my personal blog, Textures and Shadows, which can be found on my website, or directly, at: http://steveberer.com/work-in-progress. I live just outside Washington, DC with my bashert, and we have two remarkable sons. Those three light my life.
