Peterson's Exodus Episode 8
Reading Exodus 18
You need to have mercy to have justice and justice to have mercy.
But Dennis Prager says "Justice in the macro and mercy in the micro"(36:) This is not correct according to Moses and Jesus who said differently concerning the weightier matters of the law which includes judgment and mercy ,and faith[1] which takes us back to cities of refuge, the Jury, and their power of Nullification.
When a child is in the milk it is receiving compassion but as it grows you need to become more just who you may boil a kid in its milk.
Ethos, logos, Pathos, conscientious, compassionate, agreeable (balance?). At 49 min. thinking Parliament prevents chaos provides "cohesion" and "order", is there a better way than Democracy and Republic. Moses will set up a government of the people, for the people and by the people. Which is why V19 says " Be thou for the people to God[2]-ward[3], that thou mayest bring the causes unto God:"
55 minutes. Tens and rulers[4] like the Common Law but they think the highest judge is the Queen. (58m) People have been crippled by the bondage of Egypt but the bondage was brought on by covetous practices because as you judge so shall you be judged. Two things are required for a free society: the Power of choice and sacrifice of self.
56 minutes they talk about these leaders being being a hierarchy. What they do not seem to understand that it is a hierarchy of service not one of power and men exercising authority.
59 minutes Larry speaks about having to learn to govern themselves and what the pharaoh took away their right to choose. Part of that was their system of a social safety net through the compelled offering and free bread in a covetous practices of legal charity.
103 minutes Blackwood mentions "hating covetousness"[5] as an attribute of these leaders (ShinReishYod)[6] were not rulers over the people but were people given a responsibility to serve. Coveting was at the root of why the Israelites went into bondage because they would not hear the anguish of his brothers.[7]
112 minutes they discuss reason and Logos Father is not beyond Right Reason, but it is the Divine Will. Can we get to Right Reason by eating of our own tree of knowledge but only by eating of the tree of life through revelation. It was to that Spiritual tree that Moses kept returning to and now the people need to learn that too.
unedited Notes
We listened to this series and are sharing some important things missed by those who read through the Book of Exodus with Jordan.

133
"struggle with the state" when you decimate the higher principle the state becomes the substitute for God."
"The secularist doesn!t think you need God... Oh yes you do!"
You have to have faith in something to organize yourself
148
the proper place of those who struggle with God and are favored by God is not under the dominion of a secular authority...
The spirit of God itself opposed the dominion of the ultimate secular authority properly.
We should be willing to move out of the tyranny into the wilderness of God (the unknown land) even if it is a desert and it means great privation to do so.
No excuse not to do it.
man to dwell under
150. JP "Israelites Began to assemble and organize themselves dangerously under the sole dominion of Moses. Then organize themselves under a hierarchial state. And then prepare themselves for the revelation of the law."
They go on to discuss "like a bride" and a voluntary movement out of tyrant.
Jordan Peterson ?
What is the bride? Where is the tyrant and where is the volunteerism?
Torah means instructions, not law as we often think of with legal and penalties.
Dennis. ??613 laws ??
Law of nature is the fabric of creation and the spirit is the creator seen in the patterns produced in the warp and weft of the fabric of society.
Dennis, not just liberation but but free to serve God.
How do we serve God?
