תִּקּוּן בֵּ֣ית יֵה֔וּא: אָשֵׁר

Ketriel Blad: In other words, in order for a total restoration to take place, the restored Ephraimites from among the nations will have to become Jewish, in the legal sense of the word, thus accepting the Jewish authorities and becoming obedient to Jewish halachah. In the prophecy of Ezekiel 37:19 the Hebrew text can be understood as HaShem giving Yehuda's stick the function of being over Ephraim's stick and this way both sticks will become one. This teaches us that the Ephraimite movement that comes from heaven cannot rise apart from the Jewish people without submission to the Jewish leaders' authority. This is not for all the gentiles.

LUIS ANTONIO GOKIM TAGLE: Many cannot believe that in the Philippines there is a chapel in a mall. They cannot believe that evangelization can happen in commercial centers. They cannot believe that every first Friday there is a Mass in offices, banks.

CLAY STAUFFER: Christianity is hypocritical, judgmental, overly political, homophobic and boring. For those of us who lead churches, preach on Sundays, and pour our heart and soul into the faith, this is difficult to hear.

H. BRUCE RINKER: Each time she received a donation request from groveling evangelicals, she sealed a few dollars in the envelope and mailed it off. Later, of course, she would receive another invitation to donate and yet another. Despite our warnings that these were charlatans stealing her hard-earned savings. “I’m doing what I think is right, and the Lord knows what’s in my heart.” Poor Grandma.

SAM PASCOE: Christianity was born in Israel, only to be taken to Greece and morphed into a philosophy. From there it was taken to Rome and made into an institution of civil power. Eventually it migrated into Europe where it was developed into a culture. And later, it was brought to America and made into an entrepreneurial business enterprise.

H. BRUCE RINKER: Modern Christianity seems to have given up its soul to Mammon with its plague of fundamentalist televangelists who have profited from the plight of the poor by making millions to support their megachurches, dodgy nonprofits, and dubious empires. These devils include Jim and Tammy Bakker, Pat Robertson, Oral Roberts, Jerry Falwell, and even the son of Billy Graham.
