Original Message Just two examples.

The ancient Greeks believed, man is equal to the gods, yet it is the tragedy of man to die.
And when a man dies, the tragedy doesn't stop, oh no, Hades is a place of nothingness and coldness, for eternity.
According to the Achilles, who had met Odysseus in Hades, "It is better to be a serf on earth, than a king in Hades.

So why not become a "Greek Hero" with blood lust to make a name for oneself? As it is the only solace in the face of the tragedy of death...

But for the Hebrews, man is but a worm compared to G-d, yet the only tragedy in the life of a man is the fall from the Garden of Eden... A place he WILL return to, the return is inevitable.

So why be a "Hero" writing your name in history, with the blood... of those you kill? How stupid such a though is, for it only delays the return to Eden. And true!! "Heroism" lies in the actions that hasten the return to Eden.


Also, the ethics of the Greco Roman Bible... The stupid Illiad.
After 9 long wasteful years of failed attempts to capture Troy, finally, a commoner soldier (whom Homer presents as "the ugliest soldier in the army", judge book by its cover eh) rises up and denounces the Greek kings who led the army on such a wasteful expedition. Then Odysseus rises against the "ugly" man and knocks him down... To this Homer says "The soldiers all cried 'Odysseus has done many great things for us, but this surely is the greatest".

The Bible has a... slightly similar story. After Solomon had died, his son, Rehoboam ruled after him. The Israelites asked the new king to not work them as hard as his father, Solomon has, in his grand architectural projects. Rehoboam's reply was "My father scourged you with lashes, I shall scourge you with scorpions."

Rehoboam is considered as an evil stupid king.
Odysseus... as a legend.

The stupidity of the Greek thought.
It is only a matter of time until it is forgotten.
But as it is celebrated today, it is only testimony for the stupidity of mankind.

Israel's role as the true light of nations is only a matter of time.
