Why does God allow it? |
(Sam 2:13) "Amon fell madly in love with the king's beautiful daughter, Tamar, but just could not wait for her father's consent. By deciet, he suceeded in getting her alone. Pretending sickness, he forced his love on her. Naturally, Tamar's heart was broken and she said, "She was desolate in her brother's house." The young girl suffered much animal relationship by the hand of Amon. It was from this union that the blood line of David was on to Mary the mother of Jesus. It seems that the lineage of Juda was at the point of extinction and the two brothers were fighting. Amon's wife Bathashuah had died and he took his brother's daughter for his wife. (2Sam 20:1-2) "Sheba the son of Birchri shall do us more harm than did absalom." King Solomon's Song of Song is a love poetry. The king and his maiden Shulamite, Bathsheba sing their love. "I am black but beautiful, O ye daughters of Jerusalem, as the tents of Cedar, as the curtains of Solomon." Bethsheba sings, "I sat down under his shadow, whom I desired: and his fruit was sweet to my palate." The king replies, "How beautiful are thy breasts, my sister, my spouse! thy breast are more beautiful than wine, and the sweet smell of thy oitments above all aromatical spices." Bathsheba replies, "My beloved has put his hand through my keyhole, and my bowels were moved at his touch." a union of sensuality and love. Bethsheba is hebrew for "Out of Sheba." a black tribe. Solomon is described by Bethsheba as, "My beloved white and ruddy, chosen out thousands." There in we read of a black and a white tribe of Jews. Both, rivals for the throne of David. The Kingdom of Sheba spanned from Yemen to Iran. There is a strong possiblity the second coming of the Messiah will be a black savior.+ Shalom |
