als hier 'n pot met bonen staat & daar 'n pot ...

Wat mij
't meest intrigeert
is de veelheid aan natuurlijke verschijnselen
& hun samenbindende eenheid: alles wat we tegenkomen
aan mineralen, planten, dieren & mensen
heeft ontzaglijk vele kanten
& hoort bij elkaar!

Zo is 't ook
met wat we hebben leren kennen
van ons gezamenlijk verleden:
't is niet los ver~
krijgbaar
...

In
the Gospels,
we see how Yeshua's attitude to the law
has sometimes become unrecognizable as the result of "clarification"
by the Euangelists and touching up by later revisers. Nevertheless, those Synoptic Gospels,
if read through the eyes of their own time, still portray a picture of Yeshu as a faithful, very law-observant Jew. Few people seem to realize that in these Synoptic Gospels, Yehoshua is never shown in conflict
with current practice of the law ~ with the single exception of the plucking of heads of grains
on the Shabbath. In this incident, Lucky Luke {6:1-5} is the closest
to the original account.
"On a Shabbath, while he was going through the grain fields,
his disciples plucked and ate some heads of grain, rubbing them in their hands.
But some of the Pharisees said,
'Why are you/your disciples/they doing
what is not lawful to do
on the Shabbath?'"
{see also Matai 12:2
& Mark 2:24!}!

The
general opinion
was that on the Shabbath
it was permissible to pick up fallen heads of grain
& rub them between the fingers. According to Rabbi Yehuda, also a Galilean,
it was even permissible to rub them in one's hand.
The plucking however is lacking in
all known texts [except
in the Gospels]!

So
some of
the Pharisees found
fault with Yeshua's disciples
for behaving in accordance with their Galilean tradition!
The Greek translators of the original evidently/probably were unacquainted
with the customs of the people. To make this scene more vivid, he added the statement
about plucking the wheat and thus introduced
the one and only act of 'transgression'
of the law recorded in the
Synoptic tradition?!

We
can therefore
tentatively suggest that
what we have here also a story of contention
like over martyrdom between rabbinic and Christian Jews -
from Christian & rabbinic perspectives,
of course.

From
rabbinic perspective,
there is a great irony in the fact
that Jews who have abandoned the traditional practice of the Jews
by becoming Christians end up in even greater danger actually than they were in
to start with. I speculate that in the late Babylonian tradition,
Papos ben Yehuda, always an ambiguously
liminal figure in rabbinic texts,
was supposed [to be] a
Jewish Christian.

Wat
aanvankelijk voortkwam
uit allerlei heidense Midden Oosterse tradities
werd zo gedurende meer dan 4000 jaar opgepikt door Joodse vertellers & schrijvers:
vanuit joods-christelijke opvattingen ontstond 'r op hun beurt weer 'n heidense{r} versie
van Yehoshua's bergveldredes
& oorspronkelijke
gelijkenissen
...

Zo'n
zeshonderd
jaar later 'baarden'
joden & christenen a.h.w.
"via Muhammad" e.d. 'de islam' & die drie groeiden daarna
steeds verder 'uit elkaar' onder invloed van de
[over]heersende omstandigheden
& lokale politieke
strubbelingen
