"Don't be a minister of the letter, for the letter ( literal killeth ) the understanding.




1 Samuel 15:3:

Now go and smite Amalek ( the lower mind/ego), and utterly destroy all that they have, and spare them not; but slay both man and woman, infant and suckling, ox and sheep, camel and ass.

This is a statement to destroy all that the ego has, the ox is a symbol of the animal nature, infants are symbols of thoughts that proceed from lower egoic thinking) men are symbols of mind, yet it is mind under the influence of the ego, women are symbols of the lower emotuons, all these things must be killed out of a persons nature.


“Only in the cities ( cities are a symbol of human consciousness)of these peoples that the Lord your God is giving you as an inheritance ( the inheritance is the higher divine renewed mind ), you shall not leave alive anything that breathes ( again the ego and all of the thoughts that come from egoic thinking has to be destroyed ). But you shall utterly destroy them: the Hittite and the Amorite, the Canaanite and the Perizzite, the Hivite and the Jebusite, as the Lord your God has commanded you, so that they may not teach you to do according to all their detestable things which they have done for their gods, so that you would sin against the Lord your God”(Deuteronomy 20:16–18, NASB).

All of the ites are symbols of various aspects of ones consciousness and ones thoughts that arise from the lower mind)

Psalm 137:9:

Happy shall he be, that taketh and dasheth thy little ones against the stones.



The stones are the pineal glands of each of us, to dash the little ones ( lower thoughts that are the off srping of the ego ) must be brought to the brain and impact the pineal stone, then the ego will be brought under control)

NEVER read ancient mythology LITERALLY, the bible is a book os spiritual allegory and parables.
