<1>After
Abraham
was selected to be the first Elected One, his children and seed were
all the
incarnations of
Great Souls who had gone through many
reincarnations until they had reached a very high consciousness. Only in this state could they be born in the Hebrew community as
God's people.
<2>At the end of Genesis, it is shown
how the number of Hebrews increased to seventy-one by the time of
the death of
Israel (Jacob). <3>Israel means,
"He who struggles with
God" -- "struggle with"
in the sense of struggling side-by-side with
God to bring all to
Pure Consciousness.
<4>So the
Children of
Israel are those humans who strive to bring the whole universe
to higher consciousness and
Pure Consciousness.
<5>Also these chapters of Genesis show the struggle of
the Israelites to find a land where they could settle in and start
their nation.
<6>Eventually they settled in Egypt. However,
after some time, the Egyptians enslaved them and made their lives
miserable. In order for the Hebrews to become stronger and multiply
their numbers, they had to go through this long period of struggle. This was foretold by
God
(Genesis 15:12-14).
<7>In Exodus, the great heroic legend
of the Israelites and how God helped them go out of Egypt shows how
God waited all this time to see the
Elected Ones increase in number and to reincarnate all the good
seed that had reached higher consciousness in that race.
<8>By leaving Egypt through the instructions
given by the Lord, by the Laws which were revealed to Moses, through
their suffering in the desert, and by multiplying their numbers, the
Israelites became ready as the mighty nation. With these qualities
and through their long struggle, they created great characteristics
which are necessary for any group in order to advance and bring
about a new change in the world.
<9>That is what
God
had planned to do. The Israelites were chosen to bring about a new
understanding of the reality of
God. They were set aside to destroy the superstitious and false
religions which were practiced by many. However, their most
important mission was to make humans realize that the proper
environment is necessary for spiritual progress, which means the
establishment of the
Kingdom Of Heaven On Earth
(),
with Him as the King, is a must.
<10>The conquest of the promised land by the
Israelites is finished at the end of Joshua [there is no "j"
in the Hebrew language so it is actually "Y'shua,"
which itself is a corrupt pronunciation of the sacred name of the
son ()].
<11>After the conquering of the land was
finished, the system of government was left in the hands of the
judges. They were supposed to receive their instructions from the
Lord. However, because of the cruelty of the time and the
minds of the people,
these positions were left in the hands of the warriors. <12>People
thought that if someone was a good warrior, he would be a good judge
also. They were in the state of praising the mighty men of war (Ksattriyas).
<13>However, this system failed and the
people requested that there be a human king. <14>People
rejected
God as their King (I
Samuel 8:7). This was the greatest mistake any man or nation could
make and was the mark of the failure of the Israelites. <15>They
chose Saul as their king, who was a mighty man, vigorous and
handsome.
<16>However,
God
reincarnated a Great Soul as David, who was fair in appearance but
was in tune with
God's Will.
