Samara true story

Alexey Solonitsyn

“Language is given to a person in order to hide his thoughts,” said the master of political intrigue, Frenchman Charles Talleyrand.

We are accustomed to being guided by a different concept of the purpose of the language and the words we utter, even sometimes not knowing that they are said in the Gospel of Matthew: “From your words you will be justified, from your words and you will be condemned” ( Mt. 12:37).

Each city has especially revered places, which are its face, its "visiting card". Samara was recognized by the bell tower of the monastery in honor of the Iberian Icon of the Mother of God, by its churches and also by the Cathedral of the Resurrection Cathedral, which stood behind the monastery shrines, being nearby.

In the godless years, the cathedral, famous throughout Russia, and the bell tower, and the temples of Iversky were demolished, leaving only the building of the refectory church. It housed the offices of the House of Scientists, who were engaged in the dissemination of knowledge - of course, corresponding to Marxism-Leninism. And where there was a graveyard and the burial places of the most prominent citizens of Samara, a residential building was erected, in which the most prominent residents of the new Samara were settled - that is, the administrative apparatus headed by the first secretary of the regional committee of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union ... to buy the richest residents of Samara, since the “fathers” have retired, and their children preferred to profitably sell the housing they got. Apartments in a "prestigious house", from the windows of which a wonderful view of the Volga was opened, now belonged to entrepreneurs, or businessmen, as they were called in the capitalist manner.

Among them, one particularly stood out, who created a network of retail outlets in Samara, perhaps the largest. It was he who bought a suite of spacious rooms with high windows arranged in a semicircle.

This is how the "new Russians" settled down, not attaching importance to other arrangement of the city and state. And little by little the Iversky Monastery was revived. Difficulties were innumerable - the descent to the Volga went just past the "house of scientists", straight to the Pivzavod, to that place known throughout Samara, which was called "Dno". There was a trade "for drinks and take-away", and what kind of pictures you will not see then. It is no coincidence that the famous film director Stanislav Govorukhin filmed the final of his documentary film “Russia We Lost” here, showing how a drunk man and a woman staggered from the “Bottom” to the Volga in an embrace.

But if the director ordered his cameraman to turn the camera in the opposite direction, to the Iversky Monastery, located across the road, he would see how stone walls, the first temple in honor of the Iverskaya icon, the first sister building appear like the city of Kitezh from under the water ...

But the director set other tasks, and therefore if he saw that the monastery was being revived, then this fact “did not fit” into the fabric of his once sensational film.

There were more and more sisters of the monastery, formerly the spiritual center of Samara, and their prayer intensified. Especially in the most difficult days, when, it seemed, troubles would cover everyone with their heads and no longer get out from under the raging elements of the "nineties". I will name only one of them: on the territory of the monastery a so-called "workers' town" was formed with communal apartments and all the delights of life in such "crow settlements" described by famous satirists. All water and sewerage communications rotted, houses were never thoroughly repaired, and when the former main temple of the monastery was revived from a shoe factory, the rotted pipes were about to burst. No sooner had this formidable danger been eliminated than a new one arose, no less terrible. The corner of the "regional committee house" began to sink, threatening to collapse. No wonder, because the house was built on loose soil, on a churchyard.

The exposed coffins and crypts were taken to a new place on the territory of the monastery, where they set up a necropolis. A prayer service was served, led by the primate of the diocese, Bishop Sergius. The reburials were carried out jointly with scientists, who gathered for their scientific works a lot of valuable facts related to the history of Samara. They convinced the authorities to help the construction - for these purposes, they had to pump a huge amount of concrete into the hill, build a support wall so that the “regional committee house” would not slide down.

The time has come, and the revived temple in honor of the miraculous icon of the Iberian Mother of God shone with wondrous beauty. Here, to the monastery, where the inextinguishable lamp of the Orthodox faith was no longer glowing, but the inextinguishable lamp of the Orthodox faith was burning, people from all over the city reached out, remembering that it was the Iversky monastery that was the center of the spiritual life of the province.

And the abbess of the monastery, Mother John (Kapitantseva), just as she began the holy work of reviving the monastery, she continued it.

The time has come for the construction of the bell tower, with which we began our story. After all, both the bell tower itself and its special ringing served as the identification mark of Samara, its spiritual symbol, were a joy for the townspeople.

The very businessman who occupied the suite of rooms in the "regional committee house" was extremely irritated when he saw from his high windows that the bell tower was being built opposite his apartments. He would be glad that the bells that heal the sick would fly directly to him, that the bell tower would not block his view of the Volga, but, on the contrary, decorate, as in the old days, both the panorama of the entire city and the view from his window. But he judged otherwise. Letters poured in to various authorities. It was explained to him that the land on which the bell tower is being built is monastery. That a historical shrine, belonging to the monastery for over 150 years, is being restored.

In vain!

"Zakhar", as the businessman and his shopping malls were called, could not agree in any way that his iron will stumbled upon a stone that he could not budge.

Having exhausted all the arguments that are presented in the legal order, he resorted to the one that is used in his world as the most effective.

When I was instructed to write about Matushka John, her cell attendant told the following:

- One deep at night the doorbell rang at the door of the abbot's house. The call is persistent, demanding. I left. I looked: on the threshold there were two men with machine guns, and between them Zakhar himself. Says: "Call your boss." I go to my mother: so and so. She got out of bed and dressed. Says: “Go open. Do not be afraid of anything". She went out to the uninvited guests. Zakhar began to scold mother so menacingly and obscenely, swearing. “If, he says, you don’t stop construction, we will remove you.” And again with obscenities. And again to threaten. I can tell you that not a single muscle on my mother's face quivered. She calmly listened to everything and said: “You are not dishonoring me, but the Mother of God herself. Think about it. " In response, he again threatened and only after that left with his submachine gunners. Then I thought: “Wow, this is our mother! This is who we must learn from, how to stand in faith. This is what the warrior of Christ means. "

“After this incident, we learn that this Zakhar went to rest on the Cote d'Azur in France,” the cell attendant continued. - And there between them, these businessmen, there was a shootout. And this Zakhar was hit right in the tongue. I had to cut off half of my tongue. And then, in another place, he was shot to death.

I made inquiries before publishing my essay on Mother John. Indeed, the famous Samara businessman was shot twice. The first time the bullet hit the cheek, went right through, damaging the tongue. The second time, on the beach in Marseille, "Zakhar" was killed in a criminal showdown.

The bell tower of the Iversky Monastery offers a wonderful view of the Volga and the city. Of course, not everything in my city is as we would like. "Candles" were built along the embankment and thus blocked the view of the old, original Samara. What can you do, many entrepreneurs are fighting for profitable, especially attractive places closer to the Volga, forgetting that cities like ours rose in tiers from the river, without closing one house to another. But nothing, but on a high slope flaunts a temple in the name of St. George the Victorious, built for the 2000th anniversary of the birth of the Savior and for the anniversary of Victory. The bell tower of Iversky also rises, and its ringing calls for prayer in the very center of my city. The bell ringer - a short, thin mother - calls perfectly: she has a wonderful ear for music.

I listen to these ringing, look at the bells and see that each of them has a language, just like a person. And this language calls to the temple, to the Lord, to the Most Holy Theotokos, Who, as Mother John is deeply convinced, is the Abbess of the monastery.

And the language "idle and crafty", as Alexander Sergeevich Pushkin says in the famous "Prophet", is being pulled out by the roots.

Sometimes in the literal sense, as it happened with us.

NOTE

Zakhar! why are you persecuting Me? It's hard for you to go against the go

.
Sometimes the rampage was used as a weapon. For example, the Israeli judge and warrior Samegar killed 600 Philistines ( Court. 3:31).

.
In the Holy Scriptures, this shepherd's tool is often mentioned in figurative expressions. So King Solomon wrote that “the words of the wise - like an ox's throat, ”because they can induce a person to make the right decision (Eccl. 12:11).

.
The resurrected Jesus also used the word "rampage" in a figurative sense. He said to Saul: "It's hard for you to go against the prick." His words paint the image of a stubborn animal that does not go where the owner directs him with a goose. Saul, showing wisdom, followed Jesus' advice, changed his life path and became the apostle Paul.

Berserkers weren't the very first, nor were they the very best warriors to use the combat trance. Their popularity, thanks to Hollywood, has become universal and eclipsed the truly brilliant masters of martial arts.
I have already written about the ancient Jews - skilled super warriors and the history of martial arts.
Jewish boxing and Jewish samurai:

I will repeat a little.

Jews and samurai

Jews are the founders of the so-called "oriental martial arts"

I believe that in general the so-called martial arts are an invention of the Jews and are described in the Bible. Samson with nunchucks from a donkey's jaw crushed the Philistines (by the way, in the liberation wars of the 17th century, the Ukrainian Cossacks used a horse's jaw as a weapon - chipped in a certain way, it turns into a terrible weapon), and David's "strong" ones alone or together, back to back - fought off the whole army.
"After him was Samegar, the son of Anath, who beat six hundred Philistine men with a bull's head; and he also saved Israel." (Judgment 3:31) The ox rozno is a long stick - "dryn" (sharpened at one end, with which the oxen are driven, by the way, the Greeks called such a stick - stimulus, hence the concept of stimulating), is very similar to the combat staff of the Shaolin monks ...
"Here are the names of the brave in David: Isbosef the Achamanite, chief of three; he raised his spear to eight hundred people and hit them at once. (One against eight hundred! - if this man was not a martial artist, throw the" weapon of the proletariat "at me !)
According to him, Eleazar, son of Dodo, son of Ahokhi, of the three brave who were with David, when they called with reproach the Philistines who had gathered to war; the Israelites went out against them, and he stood and smote the Philistines until his hand was tired and stuck to the sword. And the Lord granted on that day a great victory, and the people followed him in order only to plunder [the killed]. Behind him is Shamma, the son of Aghe, the Gararitian. When the Philistines gathered in Phyria, where there was a field sown with lentils, and the people fled from the Philistines, they stood in the middle of the field and saved it and defeated the Philistines. And then the Lord granted great victories. "(2 Sam. 23: 8-12) One man against the Philistine army! And they also say -" one is not a soldier in the field. "This is true for the goyim, but in the Israeli army, as according to Suvorov (on Let's talk about Suvorov separately ") -" every soldier knows his own maneuver. "
"And Abishai, the brother of Joab, the son of Zeruiah, was the chief of the three; he killed three hundred men with his spear, and was in glory among those three. Of the three, he was the most noble and was a ruler, but he was not equal with those three. a brave husband, great in business, from Kavtseil; he defeated the two sons of Ariel of Moab; he also went down and killed a lion in a ditch in a snowy time; (I mean the Eurasian lion - a kind of cougar. The last lions of this type were exterminated by Prince Vladimir Monomakh in Russians / Ukrainian steppes), he killed one prominent Egyptian; in the Egyptian's hand was a spear, and he went to him with a stick and took the spear from the Egyptian's hand, and killed him with his own spear: this is what Benaiah, the son of Jehoiada, did, and he was in glory among the three brave; he was more noble than thirty, but he did not equal those three. And David made him the closest executor of his orders. " (2 Sam. 23: 18-23)
33 heroes in Pushkin's poem are "strong", David's guards from the Bible. And the uncle himself - in Hebrew DOD - and means - David. This happened because Pushkin retold the tales of the Karaites-Krymchaks and Crimean Jews - This is "the tale of Tsar Saltan", "The Golden Cockerel", Ruslan and Lyudmila ".. By the way, Pushkin wore a Jewish wedding ring with an inscription in Hebrew" betabaat haze " at mekudel ... - with this ring you are dedicated to me according to the law of Moses and Israel.
Samurai, brave warriors who defy death. But these are not just soldiers, but philosophers and poets. Being a samurai is a lifestyle, ethics, philosophy, and not just a virtuoso weaponry. The very same word "samurai" comes from the verb saberu, literally meaning "to serve, to support"; that is, a samurai is a service person. In Hebrew, saburim are Jews born in Israel, tough as a cactus - sabur, that is, in our opinion, tough guys. In Slavic - syabry - community members, hence the Serbs.
And does the word karate have Slavic roots - "kara te" (that is, you), said the Slavic samurai, to the overstepped enemy.
When Jewish merchants seized a monopoly on the entire Silk Road from the Chinese city of Kaifen (Haifa) to the Spanish city of Toledo (from Talit) and Toulouse (from Thales, both words mean a Jewish prayer veil), they hired the "strong" - HAZAKIM (roaming and Cossacks) as caravan guards. So the Jewish martial art ended up in China and then Japan. These Cossacks were also called by the Chinese - "sho-mouren", that is, people with colored (blue, for example) eyes. It is not far from here to the "samurai". The black-eyed Chinese considered blue-eyed people to be demons, the Japanese also called the faces of the European race - demons - goi-zhzin. In general, goyim are also goyim in Japan. "Retiring", the guards of the caravans settled in monasteries that provided assistance to the poor and sick. It was there that the Khazakim taught the martial arts techniques of young monks.
By the way, did you know that the DNA of the Japanese and Kazakhs is 97.3% brothers (and the DNA of the Kyrgyz with the same Kazakhs is only 43.7%). And also, among the samurai clans, the frequency of the R1a marker is much higher than that of the rest of the Japanese. And the Kazakhs, appearing in the Saka (Cossack) haplogroup R1a1, seriously, scientifically, consider themselves modern Cossacks (and Aryans), and the Kazakhs jealously retain the term “Cossacks” for themselves at the state level. This is not a fantasy. I (Khazarin), being in Alma-Ata, talked with the local intelligentsia, and they seriously identify themselves with the Cossacks and the descendants of the Aryans !!!

Note: SAK GENE: haplogroups are included in the so-called "Saki gene" - the genetic basis of the Cossacks of all times and territories. Saki - historically these are Scythians and Aryans - the people inhabiting Siberia, Central Asia, the Caucasus.

Take a look at the photograph of the statue of the Japanese samurai leader Masashige Kusunoki (1294-1336) outside the Imperial Palace in Tokyo. This is a very characteristic, iconic monument. It embodies not the Asian, but the EUROPEAN type of person. The Japanese, unlike us, remember well who stood at the origins of the founding of their homeland and are still very offended when they are called "Asians".

When did the real samurai appear?
Samurai originated from the Taika reforms (646) as an attempt to take over the political, bureaucratic and military structure of the Tang Dynasty. The greatest impetus to the development of daimyo and samurai as a class was given by the emperor Kammu in the late 8th - early 9th centuries, having turned to the regional clans for help in the struggle against the Ainu.


When did martial arts appear?

Japanese samurai arts - bujutsu (X-XI centuries), when the military class of bushi (samurai) was born to protect newly acquired agricultural and land interests. This class of warriors embraced bujutsu as part of their culture. Later, during the Kamakura era (1192-1333), the military began to play a political role. They practiced a number of martial arts, especially three types of horseback archery: kasagake (using umbrellas as targets), yabusame (shooting arrows at wooden targets) and inu-omono (shooting at running dogs - by the way, Nikolai II really loved to shoot on everything that moves, and not only on stray dogs and maid of honor in the summer palace, but also on cats and crows). A true samurai!
Around the 10th century, in parallel with the formation of the military class of the samurai, the art of fighting in armor began to take shape - yoroi-kumiuchi (kumiuchi, yoroi-gumi, kattyu-gumi). It reached its peak at the end of the 12th-13th centuries.
In the XVI century. on the basis of kumiuchi, a new kind of Japanese art of close combat is being formed, which is called "kogusoku-jutsu" - "the art of fighting with small weapons", in short - "kogusoku." alive and binding.

The arts of close combat are described in the chronicles of "Kojiki" (712) and "Nihongi" (720); there are references to chikara-kurabe, or "competitions in strength," - hand-to-hand combat not for life, but for death using all the techniques known at that time: punches and kicks, throws, twisting of hands, strangulation.
7th century - Sumo. And this is not only a man's fight. At the Inari Shrine in Higashikane, the Saotome, the girls planting rice, are fighting. Even the ancient name of sumo - "sumai" - is associated with the end of rice harvesting - sumai.
Chinese - e-ie - fistfight, a broad term and a narrower one - Kung Fu (in Cantonese), Gong Fu (in official Chinese) - literally "work on yourself / training", also means the result of hard training, in Hong Kong is used to refer to wu-shu, a variant of kung fu is also used. The beginning is the dynasty 618-907.
Karate - the term "karate" ("Chinese hand") was introduced into circulation in the 18th century. a certain Sakugawa from the Okinawan town of Akata. On his return from China, where Sakugawa studied Shaolin style of martial arts, he founded the private school of Karate no Sakugawa. In the 19th century, karate actually entered Japan.
In the second half of the XVI - early XVII centuries. a huge step forward was made in the field of hand-to-hand combat without weapons and with the use of small weapons and improvised means. The formation of a new direction in the art of close combat, which is now commonly called "ju-jutsu", began. There was no judo before! 882.
The year of origin of aikido can be called 1920, and the place is the city of Ayabe.
Krav Maga - the name in Hebrew means "close (contact) combat" (magician - fight, krav (melee, contact), and refers to combat in physical interaction with the enemy, in contrast to combat using weapons at a distance (although in krav- magician studies modern types of weapons - rifles, pistols, and other items, in combination with self-defense techniques).
The Krav Maga system was developed in the 1930s by Imi Lichtenfeld, also known as Imi Sde-Or (Sde-Or - "field of light", translation of the surname into Hebrew). He originally trained his fighting system in Bratislava to help defend the Jewish community from Nazi militias. After arriving in Palestine, Lichtenfeld began teaching hand-to-hand combat at the Haganah. After the formation of the State of Israel in 1948, he became the chief instructor in physical training and hand-to-hand combat at the Israel Defense Forces Combat Training School. Lichtenfeld served with the IDF until 1964, constantly developing and improving his system. After retirement, Krav Maga was adapted by him to civilian realities.
Sambo - 1938 - Soviet (Russian) type of wrestling based on a combination of oriental martial arts.
So, again, we don't see everything until the same until the 8th century, even the rudiments of the illustrious martial arts.
They appear suddenly and as if in a finished form, although they are further improved.

In Europe, the first testers of trance (including combat) were:

Nordic shamans

At present, the classical shamanistic cults of Siberia and America are widely known and well studied. But at the same time, the territory of the North of Europe had its own specific shamanic tradition. The presence and fundamental role of what Mircea Eliade called "archaic techniques of ecstasy" makes it possible to attribute it to shamanistic beliefs.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v\u003dqlPufHhbd1A

Runic magicians - Erili adopted from the peoples of the North that preceded them the practice of taking hallucinogens (fly agarics) and ecstatic travels during rituals to the sounds of a tambourine and mallets, but at the same time developed their own system of symbols to illustrate shamanic cosmogony in the form of runes. At the same time, all the fundamental motives are very closely related: the Tree of Worlds in the form of Yggdrasil, Odin - as the archetype of a shaman, his acquisition of knowledge through suffering, sacrifice and rebirth, a journey to the upper and lower worlds inhabited by spirits and gods.

Subsequently, the beliefs of the Eriles became a transition from shamanism to the pagan cults of the Early Middle Ages with their more formalized pantheon of deities, and the Futhark of the elder runes will turn into a mantic system, but it will still retain the immense knowledge of the shamans about the worlds and energies that the Eriles obtained in their incredible travels beyond the reality we know.

In the III-IV centuries AD, Europe was shaken by the Great Migration of Nations. Among the barbarian tribes, a special place was occupied by the Goths, who later largely formed the main European peoples. Among the Goths-settlers, thirsty for conquest and new knowledge, during this period a kind of mysterious society was formed like a military order-brotherhood of the era of the Crusades (such as the Templars or Hospitallers), whose members were called Heruls. In their customs, they combined fearlessness and contempt for the death of berserkers with a spirit of equality and community. But the main distinguishing feature of the Heruls was that they were the only carriers of the practice of combat magic based on the Futhark of the Elder runes (runic alphabet).
The word "herul" is the Latin version of the word "erilar" - eril, the rune magician, directly indicates the nature of the knowledge that these extraordinary warriors possessed. Military skill and dedication to sacred secrets gave them a sense of being chosen and allowed the Heruls to leave their mark on history.
In the III century, warriors-magicians settled at the mouth of the Don and the Azov region, from where they made desperately daring sea raids on the entire Black Sea coast, up to Greece. After half a millennium, their exploits will be repeated by Prince Svyatoslav, in whom one can guess a direct follower of the military traditions of the Heruls (historians refer to the Heruls as already known to us Gothic tribes, although in reality the Heruls are not an ethnic group, but an intertribal clan of warriors-characteristic). And in the XVI-XVIII centuries, the Gothic heritage will find its embodiment in the Vedic magic of the Zaporozhye characterists and the Don Cossack freemen.

Belovodye - Russia to Altai

All peoples of the world at all times had their own ideas about paradise and a happy life after death. The ancient Greeks and Romans fell to the young and beautiful gods, the warriors of the north fell to the eternal feast among the heroes, paradise awaited righteous Christians. In Russia, since ancient times, they talked about a certain country of bliss and happiness, which in a whisper was called Belovodye. Simultaneously with the image of the Christian paradise, Belovodye in Russia was considered a refuge from grief and suffering. But unlike the Christian paradise, after death, the inhabitants of Russia believed that Belovodye could be found during life. There was a popular belief among the people that Belovodye was not an abstract concept, but a certain geographical area to which one could find a way and stay there until the end of days. The outstanding Russian ethnographer and scientist Nicholas Roerich left in his diary the following entry in the 1920s: “Behind the great lakes, behind the high mountains, there is a sacred place where justice flourishes, where higher knowledge and higher wisdom live for salvation. This place is called Belovodye. " The record about the legendary country was made in connection with the preparation of the Central Asian expedition. The Verkhneuimonskaya Valley is the extreme point of Roerich's journey to the Altai Mountains, a remote, inaccessible place. It was he who Roerich considered the heart of Belovodye, the land hidden from people. Belovodye is in many ways a myth, a beautiful legend, but this legend has every foundation.

Berserkers

We have already read about them.
In fact, the berserker archetype originated much earlier and has its roots in Indo-European mythology. It got its expression in the ancient myth of the rage of Hercules, the features of berserking are also traced in the fury of the invulnerable hero of the Iliad, Achilles. Trying to explain the phenomenon of berserking, scientists have put forward 3 main hypotheses.
According to the first of them, the berserker's rage is an obsession with an animal spirit. This version is confirmed by the presence of information about the attributes of werewolf inherent in berserkers: dressing up in bear and wolf skins.
The second is the use of a hallucinogen in the form of a mushroom tincture. The use of "power plants" to facilitate entry into trance by fighters is possible, but unlikely given the need for increased concentration in combat.
According to the third explanation, berserkers are warriors suffering from Paget's syndrome, a disease in which an uncontrolled increase in bone occurs. Interestingly, in the skeleton of Ilya Muromets we see very powerful and thick bones and a skull with a very dense and powerful frontal bone (more than 2 cm thick.
All these versions have the right to exist, their adherents and argumentation, but the most plausible explanation for the existence of berserkers is the possibility of some specially trained warriors to arbitrarily fall into a state of combat trance.

Celtic Fenians

The noblest ones formed the sacred corps of fiannu. The Fenians did not hide behind backs, shields, armor, did not calculate the actions of the enemy and did not study the strategy - these are the actions of a coward, which they considered unworthy. But they practiced for hours, bringing their virtuoso skills to fantastic limits. Their techniques were incredibly complex, and preparation helped to use all the reserves of the body at the right time, opening a second wind and internal energy. All this was taught in the school of combat agility. There they learned hand-to-hand combat, pole-fighting, spear and rope techniques, jumping, pole throwing, and so on. In short, the Celtic heroes knew how to use any item, any weapon to emerge victorious. Now such skill can be found only in rare oriental schools. The physical development was mixed with a spiritual attitude, the ability to displace energy in a battle cry, the ability to control the breath, which made it possible to control the body as it was convenient. They could go into battle almost naked and still win! They won thanks to the frantic onslaught and fearlessness that shone in the eyes and frightened even the staunch Roman legionnaires. It is believed that the Celts sometimes maintained their fighting ecstasy with the help of drugs.

Celtic Berserkers

The deliberately evoked fighting frenzy grew among the Celts into the cult of the warrior-beast. Especially this form of warfare took root among the Germans, who continued to use it even in the Middle Ages. The forces that such warriors released from themselves, it was difficult to resist even an armored close formation, mastering the art of correct combat. Many berserkers were called either wolves or bears, depending on what hypostasis the warrior took during the battle. Bjorns and Ulfs met in equal measure. During the battle, berserkers did not use armor and defensive weapons, or used them to intimidate the enemy, gnawing into the shield with their teeth, crushing the armor. They knew how to fight both with and without weapons, and did not consider it shameful to be able to conduct a fist fight. Stones, clubs and ropes were used as auxiliary weapons. This was the manifestation of adherence to the precepts of the ancient school of martial arts. And it helped to win. A rare enemy did not shake off at the sight of a stunted berserker splashing saliva, not noticing neither fatigue, nor wounds, nor surroundings, but continuing his offensive.

Yarygi are Russian berserkers.

Ilya and Idolische in Constantinople

The word Yaryga, fury and the sun god Yarilo - have one root. They also derive from the word - "roar" (y-rykar), in Europe the well-known distorted - "knight" - a warrior roaring in a combat trance (like a bear). It is not for nothing that the totem of the Russians (and of the Slavs in general) is the bear, which is reflected in the coats of arms of many cities.
Initially, the word yaryga meant - professional violent warrior (the same as berserk among the Scandinavians). Such lone warriors (which existed among many Indo-European peoples), thanks to their special skills, could withstand an entire enemy detachment. In a state of passion, an ardent warrior was insensitive to pain and could overcome obstacles inaccessible to a person in a normal emotional state.
Ilya Muromets, Vasily Buslaev,

Vasily Buslaev

Then the word began to mean - a worthless person, a drunkard, a vagabond. Interestingly, what else does this word mean a policeman, an investigator, a trampler, a bailiff in medieval Russia. Also, "yaryga" in the Moscow state meant a small employee, but it also had a different meaning - "lively, quirky." Apparently, like the Japanese police officers who fought against the dominance of the samurai, the yarygs used martial arts and combat trance in their work.

Slavic-Goritskaya wrestling.

The Slavic-Goritsky struggle has nothing to do with the mountaineers. This is an attempt to restore the ancient system of martial arts of the Slavs. The name of the fight comes from the ritual fights on the mounds of the dead soldiers - the mountains.
From the history of the Slavic-Goritsky struggle. The origin of the Slavic schools of martial arts dates back to approximately the 3rd-2nd centuries. BC e. In Russia, fighting traditions have a long history. At the same time, an entertaining, game folk tradition and martial arts were developing. For all their differences, there was an obvious connection between these directions: folk fun was a kind of school for the initial training of the future fighter.

The most ancient type of wrestling in Russia - bear wrestling - goes back to the pre-Christian era, when the bear was considered a totem animal and protector of the family. (The ritual fights held on the field were designed to drive away evil spirits from the crops.) It is believed that such types of competitive folk culture as wrestling in armfuls, in a fight, in a cross, on a knob, etc., originated from bear wrestling.

The belt wrestling borrowed from the Turkic peoples has also become widespread (at present it is recognized as an official sport).

Along with wrestling, we developed various types of fist fighting with an accentuated percussion technique: oneself against oneself, crowd against crowd, wall against wall, coupler - dump, etc. Such a battle between the merchant Kalashnikov and the tsar's oprichnik is perfectly described by Pushkin.

Judicial duels and betting fights ("prize" fights) were practiced in Russia.
This system also has its own styles
Basic styles.

Radogora is a hand-fighting style that incorporates the technical and tactical practices of schools of Slavic-Goritsky wrestling and other Russian fighting styles.

Hem is a kicking style in which the arms perform only defensive functions. Modes of movement and strikes are borrowed from the fighting dances of the Slavs, from the historical schools of Russian hand-to-hand combat and European martial arts (chasson, savat, puring, volderskal).

Rocker arm (proportional style) is a combat system in which a high rate of movement is achieved by alternating blows of arms and legs due to inertia and special plasticity, which saves a fighter's strength.

The style is an alloy of several types of wrestling, combining the technical and tactical developments of the Russian historical school and special techniques for waging total combat.

Posem (complex fight on the ground) is a style in which creases, overturns, holdings, painful and suffocating actions, as well as various strikes in a prone position are used.

Svilya (combat gymnastics) - a system of techniques that allow you to evade attacks and grabs of the enemy. Forms a special plasticity of movements in a fighter, allows avoiding enemy attacks without excessive efforts.

Heel (style of unplanned situations) - develops combat skills in specific conditions: in the dark, in cramped conditions, on slippery surfaces, with a numerical superiority of the enemy and in a confined space.

Chest is a method of organizing a battle with a physically superior (in height, weight, strength) enemy.

Flexible rebuilding (counter-system) - maneuvering and tactical tricks, taking into account the stereotypical actions of the enemy using one or another type of single combat.

"S-42" is a kind of Slavic-Goritsky wrestling, adapted to real combat conditions. It includes the most effective technical actions, a survival system, special skills, and methods of guerrilla warfare.

Fire fight - a fight with the use of firearms. The system is built on the basis of pistol triathlon: oncoming combat (duel shooting in motion), aimed shooting, demonstration of combat movement techniques, as well as general principles of combat using automatic weapons.

Blade combat is a combat system based on knife triathlon (free combat, knife throwing and demonstration of combat techniques in movement).


Cossacks-characterists - extraordinary warriors

All major civilizations had their own elite warriors, whose abilities went beyond the usual military training and gave rise to legends about their invincibility. Be it samurai or ninjas, "immortals" or Spartans, kshatriyas or Sikhs. The memory of these legendary fighters and their traditions survived epochs and entered myths.

Slavic peoples also have a rich history in martial arts and are famous for their heroes. But the sacred and cultural origins of their techniques have been studied much less, and the last representatives of this line - the Cossack-characterists.

Kharakterniki are extremely unusual characters even for such a motley and colorful army as the Zaporozhye Cossacks. They were distinguished by their extraordinary vitality even in the most difficult conditions and a mocking attitude towards death and danger. In addition, typical magical attributes were attributed to the characterists: the ability to turn into animals and birds, predict the future, speak, levitate, control the weather, and so on. That is why they buried the Cossacks-kharaterniks face down so as not to rise from the dead (perhaps this ritual was somehow identified with the belief in ghouls and ghouls widespread among the Slavic peoples).

It is especially unusual that, being representatives of the Zaporozhye Orthodox army, the chanterellers were not completely Christians and always kept themselves apart, like a secret knightly order. Like any full-fledged martial art, their tradition was based not only on technical practices, but also on the esoteric teachings of their ancestors. The original doctrine of the kharaterniks is based on Vedic knowledge, supplemented by subsequent inclusions from the cultures of the steppe peoples (Polovtsy, Khazars, Pechenegs). This is how a universal combat system has developed, containing elements of survival and bioenergetic techniques.
It is believed that the emergence of characterism is associated with the development and decline of Slavic sorcery (spiritual practices and knowledge of the Vedic plan). Priests-warriors (dates) are direct forerunners of the Cossacks of the characterists of the 1st millennium BC. - 1 millennium AD In the late Middle Ages, some of the knowledge of a higher order and meditation techniques were preserved. You can read about sorcery in the book "The Greatness of Dulibia Ros. Surenzh" (http://rivne-surenzh.com.ua/ru/pub/) and articles (http://rivne-surenzh.com.ua/ru/our_articles/ ). Read and plunge into millennia before Russia ...
Also interesting is the story of Gogol - a blood feud, this is not a fantasy, but the realities of the Cossack life of that time.

Joshua. How to get God's promised land or "sacred" genocide

"Israeli judges". And who are the judges? or 300 year old blitz krieg

The book "Judges of Israel" is a short story about a 300-year period of struggle for power between tribal leaders (knee kings) and the Levites, about the period of the life of the Jews without major leaders-Fuhrer, such as Moses or Joshua, who would be able to subdue the people and rule with an iron hand. Those who managed to get hold of power, or, more precisely, who were allowed to steer the Levites, are called, shyly, "judges." Note, even in Russian translation, they are called not tsars, leaders, elders, or, at worst, godfathers, but "judges." The book describes mainly the military conflicts of the Jews, who, when they were not engaged in intercourse, diligently carried out the planned program - they occupied the land "promised" to them, which, although it was divided in advance between all the tribes of Israel, like the skin of an unkilled bear, however, is still completely occupied. was not.
All the tribes fought, but not everyone got military luck. For example, the tribes of Judah and Simeon, united, defeated the army of the Canaanites and Perrezeans and destroyed 10,000 people, and the tribe of Dan fought with the Amorites, but without any success - they drove the Jews to high mountains and did not allow them to descend into the valley. It can be seen that the Almighty could not keep up with everyone. There were also quite annoying punctures. So, despite the fact that "The Lord was with Judas", the inhabitants of a certain valley could not be carved out, since they had iron chariots. (Judges 1:19). The Bible, of course, did not indicate what kind of valley it was, how the valiant Jews fought against a tribe with "high technologies" and why the Almighty was too lazy to destroy these very chariots.
And then - in general, everything went awry. Some tribes of Israel, bypassing Jehovah's direct orders, did not “eradicate” all the inhabitants of the conquered territories, despite the fact that the Almighty was intensely “hardening the hearts” of the local population. The knee of Venamin became famous for its shameful softness, which did not slaughter all the Jebusites in Jerusalem; the tribe of Manasseh, which did not drive out the inhabitants of Bethsan (or Scythopolis), as well as the tribes of Ephraim, Zebulun, Asher and Naphtali. Instead of total destruction, the local population was levied with tribute, and the Jews themselves began to quietly "Do evil in the sight of the Lord God of their fathers", i.e. do what, on pain of death, the jealous God categorically forbade to do - serve other Gods, in particular Baal and Astarte, and also enter into mixed marriages with the natives. Apparently, Jehovah's genius plan for the total elimination of the indigenous tribes "On behalf of the Israelites" and maintaining the purity of the race has failed. And all due to the fact that the executors of the plan were caught very unsuccessful, "tough", who were striving to "fall away" from Jehovah and "Walking prodigally after other Gods".
Briefly, the history of the Jewish tribes can be summarized as follows. Military success was changeable, despite the "assistance" of an evil jealous man, and now it is explained in such a way that, allegedly for falling away and fornication, Jehovah periodically "betrayed" the Jews into the hands of various rulers with whom they fought. Those, of course, terribly oppressed the poor fellows who, in despair, “cried out” to Jehovah and who sent on someone the Spirit, of course, the Lord, and was appointed judge of Israel, who liberated the Jews. They lived “righteously” for some time, and after the death of another judge, they began to fornicate again (apparently, it was not at all sweet to live under the bloody leadership of the Levites). At first, the Jews were betrayed into the hands of Husarfam, the king of Mesopotamia, for 8 years. Gothniel saved the Israelites and judged Israel, that is, ruled them for 40 years. After his death, the Jews again “began to do evil in the eyes of the Lord,” for which Jehovah sent them to Eglon, king of Moab, for 18 years. This time, Ehd became the savior, bringing tribute with one hand, pierced Eglon with a sword with the other, and then, having gathered the children of Israel, destroyed 10,000 Moabites. After Ehud, there was Samegar, who killed 600 Philistines with an ox-horn.
Then, by the will of Jehovah, the Jews were in the hands of Jabin, the king of Canaan for 20 years. He had 900 iron chariots, and a military leader was a certain Sisera. The prophetess Deborah, who was at that time the judge of Israel and Barak from the tribe of Naphtali, gathered an army of 10,000 people (oh, how the biblical writers liked this figure). Jehovah naturally helped in battle by "... confused Sisera and all his chariots and all his army from the sword of Barakov" (Judg. 4:15). The Bible praises the feat of a woman named Jael, who blew out the brains of Sisera with a stake and a hammer, when he recklessly decided to take refuge in her tent, hoping that there was peace between their tribes.
Then the Jews were betrayed into the hands of the Midianites for 7 years, from which they had to climb to live in the mountains. In addition, the Midianites, and with them the Amalekites, took away all the fruits of the land and all the animals, leaving no food for the Jews. The cries of the elect reached the ears of the Jehovah they had left behind, and he sent them another judge. It was Gideon, aka Jerobaal, from the tribe of Manasseh. He talked with the Lord, brought him a sacrifice, destroyed the altar of Baal, gathered an army of 32,000 and, begging the Almighty for a couple of signs to be sure of victory, marched against the enemy. However, Jehovah did not like such a large army. He was afraid that in case of victory, the Jews would become proud and ascribe all the glory to themselves. We began to weed out. The timid and timid, of whom there were 22,000, were sent back, and from the rest they chose the most worthy, in a very peculiar way - they were forced to drink water from the river. Those who began lapping water from their hands (like dogs) ended up in the liberators. There were 300 of them. The rest 9,700 were sent home.
All-good, naturally, personally directed the operation. He sent Gideon on a reconnaissance mission to the enemy camp, where he overheard one Midianite telling another about a "fateful" dream about barley bread, which rolled over the camp and hit the tent. The second - instantly interpreted the dream: death is coming to them from the sword of Gideon and from the God of the Eve. And so it happened. Brave Jewish warriors in the number of 300 people at night approached the camp of the Midianites, of which there were 120,000 people, surrounded (!) It with a lamp in one hand and a pipe in the other, shouting "the sword of the Lord and the sword of Gideon!", Sowed in the camp such a panic of the enemy that they killed themselves. Some, however, managed to escape, but they were caught and destroyed.
This is the art of war! This is God's help! 300 against 120 000. Even ninja turtles fly like plywood over Jerusalem. Or is this a slight exaggeration of the Bible writers? Zero, or even two or three, more, zero less: what's the difference?
Another famous judge was Abimelech, the son of Gideon, famous for the fact that he killed 70 of his paternal brothers and ruled the Jews for 3 years, until a piece of millstone fell on his head and broke his skull. One of Israel's judges was Jephthah, the son of a harlot. Although, according to the law of Moses, he could not be a judge. "The son of a harlot cannot enter the company of the Lord, and the tenth generation cannot enter the company of the Lord." (Deut. 23: 2). But this one could! He fought with the Ammonites and made a vow to the Lord that, in case of victory, he would burn the first person he met on the altar. His own daughter was the first to leave the city gates! Jehovah was so pleased to receive this sacrifice that he did not stop Jephthah, as Abraham once did. Jephthah Burned His Own Daughter on Jehovah's Altar! And yet, the inter-tribal conflict added to this judge's fame, in which 42,000 lisping Ephraimians were destroyed (Judges 12: 5-6).
After Jephthah, there were several more judges, known mainly for the number of their offspring (60-40 people each). The most delicious figure in the “Book of Judges” is Judge Samson, who judged Israel for 20 years. He became famous not for "valiant" military campaigns, not for the large number of exterminated infidels, and not even for the length of his reign, but solely for his bad strength (one at which there is no mind at all). Samson was “immaculately” conceived by a Jewess from the Angel of the Lord (under the guise of which Jehovah often spoke) and was ordained as a Nazarene (a minister of God). Therefore, Samson was categorically not recommended to cut his hair, eat unclean food and drink alcoholic beverages. However, he never became a minister, since he violated all the recommendations of the Almighty Dad.
Burning with divine hatred for the Gentiles, he devoted his whole life to all kinds of extermination of the uncircumcised Philistines. Among his "great deeds" are the following: he beat them with a fresh donkey's jaw, destroying 1000 people, set fire to their field in a very original way: he caught 300 foxes, tied them in pairs and inserted torches between their tails, and also tore off the city gates and dragged them to the top of the mountain. Looking for an opportunity to take revenge on hated enemies, he was twice married to Philistines. And twice failed. Through the fault of his first wife, he, having spoken, lost the bet. And in his second marriage he paid for his talkative language with strength, freedom and life itself. The beautiful Delilah cut off his hair, thereby depriving him of the power and protection of Jehovah, and earning herself a little money for a living.
The last thing that Samson did (according to the script of the biblical writers inexhaustible for fantasy) - already, being blinded, pulled himself up and brought down a huge house, which, apparently in the fashion of that time, was built on two hefty pillars (well, of course, it is more convenient to live than just on the ground!). And he accomplished this "feat" exactly when the owners, quite recklessly, sat down to dinner with the invited guests. Yes, and for this dining-room lewdness, 3,000 spectators watched from the roof of the same house, neither more nor less! Of course, the audience was carefully counted before being allowed to climb onto the roof - apparently, they already guessed that this "feat" will be immortalized in a "sacred" book for "prepared" readers who will not even be surprised at this "heroic" action, born in whose a sick and inflamed brain.
This “sacred” book ends with another, very peculiar story, “carefully and truthfully” recorded by the biblical writers. A certain Levite with his concubine, by the will of fate, ended up in a city called Gibeah, located on the territory of the tribe of Venaminov. As soon as he stopped for the night in one of the houses, the depraved city dwellers, consumed with a thirst for "knowing" the essence of this traveler, besieged the house of the hospitable host and demanded to give up the guest (we already went through this with Lot and the "angels" in the story about Sodom and Gomorrah) ... In return, they were offered and given out the immaculate daughter of the owner of the house and the guest's concubine (apparently, this was a normal phenomenon among the Jews). The Bible is silent about what happened to the owner's daughter, but the concubine was not lucky. She was bullied all night and she died under the doorstep. Seeing such a thing, the Levite cut the woman's body into 12 parts and sent them to the knees, apparently, as an invitation to the arrow.
Gathered a general meeting. The tribe of Venaminov was ordered to hand over the wicked for execution. But they refused. And then 26,700 people (what an accurate record !!!) from the Veneamin tribe went to war against 400,000 (!!!) Israelis. And they lost. Only 600 people were saved (what a record! Again they knew that they would go to the Bible !!!). And the Israelites swore not to give their daughters to the sons of Venamin. But then, of course, they came to their senses. After all, a whole tribe of Israel is lost for a pinch of tobacco. Then they decided to help them get wives for themselves. And they helped, moreover, in a very original way. In the tribe that was not on the general oath, men and women were massacred, leaving only virgins. There were 400 of them. The missing were advised to steal from Shiloh. And this disgrace was happening, allegedly for one reason only: “In those days there was no king in Israel; everyone did what seemed fair to him " (Judges 21:25).

conclusions
1. The first thing that strikes in the Book of Judges of Israel is the absolute absence of any mention of the creative work of the chosen people during these 300 years! How did they live? According to the Bible, they roamed, multiplied and killed. They killed and plundered a lot (how could it be otherwise?), Willingly multiplied and moved to new places that had not yet been devastated by them. If someone already lived where they went, immediately there were convincing pretexts and justifications for universal murder (now this is called a foreign word "genocide" - is there something wrong with the genes ?!). And so - 300 years! Although, this is not the first and not the last of their 300-year-old.
2. This time, the Book of Books has surpassed itself in the number of inconsistencies, absurdities, exaggerations, and simply frank, unpretentious lies. Let's remember some, um ... "oddities":
The book of Joshua (Joshua 21: 43-45) says that Jehovah kept all his promises. And he gave the land, and destroyed all enemies, and provided peace. However, we see a completely opposite picture in the book of Judges - continuous wars.
The number of Canaanites, Perrezeans and Ammonites, exterminated at different times, was exactly 10,000 !? As a weapon of mass destruction, were used ox horn and fresh donkey jaw !? Fantastic victories of Jews by incomprehensible methods. Gideon vs. Midian: 300 vs. 120,000 !?
Incredible in its idiocy story of setting fire to a field with the help of foxes. Wasn't it just possible to throw a torch on the field? The most fantastic is Samson's last feat - the collapse of the Philistine "Palace of Congresses".
3. Jehovah, once again, is represented as a liar, a scoundrel, a traitor, a bloody murderer and tyrant, whose ways are really quite inscrutable. Why is Jehovah so intransigent about other “Gods”? Why is he banging his feet and drooling like that, as if he were not God, but an ordinary epileptic? Where does God get such animal fear? And who, after all, is he so much afraid of that he beats his own people with mortal combat for any, even the slightest, disobedience? "The Lord sent robbers against them and raised up judges who saved them from the robbers."... If the “loving Lord” had not sent the robbers, then there would be no need for judges. Jehovah did not disdain the help of “barbaric kings” so that they would thoroughly frighten the obstinate as punishment for fornication with other Gods (let's not forget that the Bible gives such an explanation).
As supreme rulers, naturally by the will of Jehovah (the Levites?), There were very odious personalities. For example, the fratricide Abimelech; former robber, murderer of his own daughter and 42,000 other Jewish brothers, Jephthah; and Samson, sung later in cinematography and cast in bronze, in comparison with which the wooden Pinocchio is the embodiment of universal wisdom. Jehovah did not even think to stop the massacre of 42,000 Jews from the tribe of Ephraim. But the sons of his chosen people died. Also, not being satisfied with only calves and lambs, he "allowed" to bring him human casualties .
4. The "sacred" deeds of the ancestors of the Jews, glorified by the Bible, leave a very depressing impression. It turns out that other peoples existed solely to serve the various purposes of the chosen people. The intensified "hardening of the heart" of the local population by Jehovah was undertaken in order for them to resist and give the Jews a reason and "legal justification" for the massacre: "... for it was from the Lord that they hardened their hearts and met Israel in war - so that they would be put to a curse and so that they would not have mercy, but that they would be destroyed as the Lord commanded Moses" (Josh. 11:20). When, through the fault of the elect, total extermination did not work out, Jehovah mercifully decided to give life to some peoples, but, not just like that - their life and fate should, it turns out, according to the Bible, serve exclusively propaganda purposes: to exist, allegedly, as a test of the Jews loyalty to Jehovah, and to be teaching material for future Jewish warriors in future wars (Judges 3: 1-4). Betrayal and meanness (the murder of the Moabite king when presenting gifts by a military leader who asked for asylum) is considered a virtue and is sung in songs. The spirit of God descends on the son of God - Samson and he kills 30 innocent people to pay for the lost dispute.
5. The last story of the book evokes mixed feelings. On the one hand, this is an obvious internecine war, which, of course, is being waged for power. They have nothing more to fight for: they get everything else in the course of predatory wars on the side. On the other hand, the primitivism and even the stupidity of the invented explanation, shamelessly ripped off from the first book of Moses (the story of Sodom and Gomorrah), is completely surprising, and it is most likely that no one will read this text. So you can get by with this nonsense. I am immensely outraged by the absolutely cynical statement of the Biblical writers, which serves as a justification for the theft of the Silom virgins: “… And when their fathers or their brothers come with a complaint to us, we will say to them: forgive us for them, for we did not take a wife for each of them in the war, and you did not give them; now you are guilty " (Judges 21:22).
6. Having got acquainted with the next opus from the “sacred and true” Book of Books, we again ask ourselves questions. What is so sacred, true, and even more so, wise, have we learned? Have we managed to take even a small step towards enlightenment with knowledge? Why, over the years, have we taken their word for it to those who “enthusiastically” read the Bible and “found” in it bottomless wells of great wisdom and inspiration? Why did we not notice before, and even now we do not notice the absolute mediocrity and even primitiveness of the biblical writings and the complete dullness and illiteracy of the biblical writers who did this?
Have we all already been zombified, like the Jews several thousand (or hundreds) years ago? For what purpose have hundreds of years been imposed on us, often even by fire and sword, the Bible, in which we find only deception, meanness, envy, jealousy, cruelty and murder ???

"1 Book of Kings." How the Tsar was chosen for the Jews or a guide for a novice racketeer

"2 Book of Kings." Who invented the Holocaust or "sacred" methods of holding on to power

"The Second Book of Kingdoms" continues to acquaint us with the absolutely "sacred" facts of the biography of the second Jewish king - the former shepherd David, with his no less "sacred" methods of ascending the throne and reigning. The previous book ended with the fact that David and his gang were in political exile in the land of the Philistines. While they went about their business - robbery - King Saul fought. As a result of the war, Saul and his three sons, including David's love Jonathan, died in the battle with the Philistines. David and his minions, on this occasion, tore their clothes, wept and fasted, right up to the evening. The messenger, who brought the fatal news along with the royal crown and bracelet and boasted that he had killed Saul himself, David ordered to send after the dead king. This is not the first time David has shown the value of the life of God's anointed one. I wonder where a simple shepherd has such views. Did you care about your future otherwise? The country split into two camps - Judea and Israel. David ruled Judea, with the capital in Hebron, for 7 years. Israel was formally ruled, out of nowhere, by the fourth son of Saul - Ishbosheth, enthroned by the commander of the late king - Abner.
Abner and David were constantly at odds with each other. In one of the battles, Abner, unwillingly, killed Asael, one of the three brothers who devotedly served David while he was the chieftain of the gang. The other two, Joab and Abisha, became blood enemies of the Israelite commander. In Israel, in fact, Abner was the ruler. Feeling himself a sovereign master, he took one of the concubines of the deceased Saul. This was probably out of the ordinary, since even the fearful Ishbosheth, overcoming his fear, expressed his displeasure with him in a very sharp form. The insulted Abner vowed that he would take the kingdom from the house of Saul and give it to David. Fulfilling the threat, he sent ambassadors to David with a proposal for peace. And he didn't forget about himself - he asked for a place, almost co-ruler. David agreed, but on one condition - princess Michal, his first wife, would be returned to him. Ishbosheth had to take his sister away from her legal husband and send her to the extortionist. Michal did not really need David, however, in the struggle for power, David used everyone and everything.
Abner, with the support of the Israeli elders, came with a delegation to David. The deal was concluded, feasted and Abner departed to deal with Ishbosheth. However, as you understand, he did not go far. Joab caught up with him and stabbed him to death, avenging his brother's death. Hearing about this, David immediately declared himself innocent of Abner's blood and heaped a bunch of curses on Joab's head. As usual, they tore up their clothes, threw a vote, and also fasted until evening. But how was the murderer of the peaceful ambassador punished? No way. Joab remained at the head of David's army. In this case, David's innocence is questionable. It is highly doubtful that the elimination of the first persons of a hostile state took place, at least without approval, or even not on the direct order of the tsar. In other words, David simply dealt with Abner, who was stuffing himself into his companions, with the hands of Joab, and then, still hypocritically wept over his tomb. However, the people, for whom this whole performance with a mourning fast was calculated, simply adored such a noble and pious king. Deceit and hypocrisy remained behind the scenes.
On the way to the throne of the united kingdom stood alone Ishbosheth. Left alone, without a military leader, he was completely defenseless. He was dealt with by two leaders of his own army. And the head, hoping for a reward, was brought to David. However, they miscalculated. For the fact that these two killed "An innocent man in his house, on his bed", they were quartered and hung. David's “noble” words and actions could be taken at face value, if the death of the lawful king Ishbosheth was not so beneficial to him. The scene of the murder of King Ishbosheth is also quite remarkable. They killed him in a dream, during a siesta, that is, in broad daylight. The king had a gatekeeper from the guard who cleaned the wheat. It turns out that the tsar slept not in the tsar's mansion, but in some kind of barn, where the murderers entered, supposedly to take wheat. They also killed the gatekeeper and fled, and then returned and cut off the king's head. Later, with the severed head, they went to David. And nobody detained them. And why is it, you never know who to the king in the barn in broad daylight. As a result, David began to rule the united state. He decided to move the capital to Jerusalem. It remains only to expel from it its native inhabitants - the Jebusites, who have lived there from time immemorial. Jerusalem was taken, and for the ridicule of the Jebusites over their army, they say, our weak lame and blind will chase you, David ordered to kill all the lame and blind. Offended hefty. "... Therefore, it is said: the blind and lame will not enter the house of the Lord." (2 Kings 5: 8) Very merciful, a vivid evidence of love for one's neighbor.
The Philistines fought periodically with David. He defeated them in several battles, naturally consulting with Jehovah before each battle, and he prompted, from the rear, or from the front, to enter the enemy. For more convenient communication with the Almighty, David decided to transport Jehovah's ark to the capital. However, he was not sure how he would react to the transportation, especially since one of the sons of the high priests died during the move. Jehovah did not like that the boy touched the ark, holding it so that it would not fall. Therefore, the cautious David decided to play it safe and expose the other to the possible wrath of God. He left the ark with a certain Aveddar. After three months, nothing happened to that, moreover, "The Lord blessed the house of Aveddar." The ark was brought to Jerusalem. On this occasion, unprecedented celebrations were thrown. And the king himself is naked "Rode and danced before the Lord"that Michal even made a remark to the king, so to speak, "on the costume." However, "taken from the flock of sheep" was ready to do anything for the conferring the title of "the leader of Israel." "I am humbled, I rise." David subdued the Philistines and the Moabites. Most of these peoples were exterminated. The number of people to be destroyed was measured with ropes. “And he smote the Moabites, and measured them with a line, laying them on the ground; and he measured two ropes for killing, and one rope for keeping alive ... ". (2 Samuel 8: 2).
In addition, David subdued Syria and Idumea and made them pay tribute. War booty flocked to Jerusalem: gold, silver, copper. He also fought with the Ammonites. And he dealt with them very cruelly. “And the people that were in it, he brought out and put them under the saws, under the iron threshers, under the iron axes, and threw them into the kilns. So he did with all the cities of the Ammonites ... " (2 Kings 12:31). But the Ammonites and Moabites, as the descendants of Lot, Abraham's nephew, were also Semites, so to speak, brothers, but they worshiped only other Gods.
Interestingly, Joab invited Rabba David to take the city of Ammon. He sent a messenger to David asking him to hurry before the city fell. Because, in this case, all the glory will go not to the king, but to him, Joab. (2 Kings 12: 27-28) And the king hastened and entered the city at the head of the army. So David accomplished "great feats." By the way, about attributing great feats to the king. A certain Elnahan, the son of Jagare-Orgim of Bethlehem, killed Goliath Gefyan, "whose spear shaft was like a beam of weavers." (2 Kings 21:19). At the dawn of his career, David also fought with a certain Goliath from Gath, who also had a spear shaft like a weaver's beam (1 Samuel 17: 4-7). Interesting, right? Surely somewhere the Bible writers lied? Where?
David cruelly dealt with not only external, but also internal enemies. Almost the entire family of Saul, with the exception of the lame son Jonathan, and all his associates were destroyed. The frail Mephibosheth did not pose any danger to David, so it was generously decided to keep him alive. Kind of like in memory of the oath that David once made to his beloved friend Jonathan. Saul's descendant received land, slaves and a seat at the king's table, which at the same time allowed David to keep him under constant supervision. Dealing with the consolidation of the throne and the expansion of borders, David, however, did not forget about his personal life. Once, walking along the roof of the royal house, in the neighboring courtyard he saw a woman bathing (apparently the royal chambers were still those). He liked her, and he sent servants to take her. Everything would be fine, but she was the wife of Uriah the Hittite - a devoted and responsible military man who fought alongside Jobab. While the husband risked his life for the king, the king enjoyed himself with his wife. And I had some more fun. Bathsheba became pregnant.
A scandal was brewing. The king, of course, in theory, could sleep with whoever he pleases - with Bathsheba and Uriah, and at the same time. However, first, according to the Mosaic Law, lovers must be put to death. Secondly, the military served as the mainstay of his power, and it was not known how they would react to the humiliation of one of them, even by the king. David makes a desperate attempt to save the situation - he did not want to spoil his carefully created image, and jokes with the military are bad. He calls Uriah, ostensibly to get acquainted with the situation at the front, gives him a drink and hopes that he will immediately run home to his wife and her pregnancy will be legal. But it was not there. The devoted soldier, you see, was uncomfortable to rest on the featherbeds when his comrades-in-arms were in the field. David's plan fell through. Then he sends Uriah with a letter to Jobab, where he orders to put the horned husband in the most dangerous area. Uriah dies. At the end of the mourning, David took Bathsheba into his harem. The child who was born died on the 7th day, allegedly for a crime committed by David. However, soon David comforted Bathsheba again, and she bore him a son - Solomon. The sons of David, seeing a worthy example to follow, acted accordingly. The oldest, Amnon, raped his sister Tamar (David's daughter from another wife), and then hated her. And he had nothing.
However, Absalom, Tamar's brother, harbored a grudge and looked for an opportunity to pay off the rapist. Two years later, he threw a sheep-shearing party, where he invited all his brothers. Amnon was killed by Absalom's servants during the feast. Absalom, fleeing David's wrath, fled. Three years later, the king forgave him, he returned and began to weave intrigues against his father (a worthy son!). With a few henchmen, Absalom entered Hebron and proclaimed himself king. David suddenly became afraid of something and rushed out of Jerusalem on the rebar, leaving his harem “for keeping the house,” but simply, to the mercy of fate. Absalom entered the capital. However, he made several mistakes and succumbed to the influence of Elder Husiyah, who pretended to betray David. But in fact, he was left to them to find out the plans of the conspirators and upset them. Ultimately, the conspiracy was suppressed and Absalom was killed by Joab. After the death of Absalom, Jerusalem continued to remain in the hands of the conspirators, led by Amessai, the new commander in chief. However, this time, David did not blunder. He sent a messenger to Amesai with a dispatch, in which he swore that he would make him commander-in-chief instead of Joab. (2 Kings 19:13) And Amessai pecked. The first thing David did when he returned to the capital was to punish his wives and concubines, who did not keep his house and allowed Absalom to enter them. He put them under lock and key and bypassed them until their death. And Joab, as usual, dealt with Amasa - he stabbed him. A faithful companion, without words, he understood the wishes of the king.
Then there was an attack - hunger for 3 years. Jehovah whispered to David that all evil comes from the bloodthirsty house of Saul, who somehow wanted (only wanted!) To destroy the Gibeonites. The Gibeonites are those Ammoreites who, not wanting to be cut out by the army of Joshua, tricked him into swearing that he would leave them alive. Saul, of course, did not have to follow this oath. However, nowhere in the Bible is Saul mentioning any intentions for this people. So, supposedly now, 40 years after the reign of Saul, they came to David and began to demand from him the death of the surviving descendants of Saul for some of his imaginary sins before them. David urgently granted their request - 7 people of Saul's descendants were hanged. The situation is quite fantastic. Why did the Jewish king suddenly jump to fulfill the wishes of some Amorites who were not even Semites? It's just that David, following his long tradition, used (or thought up) any excuse to remove enemies. In this way he "did justice and justice." Now we also have an idea of \u200b\u200bwhat “truth” David was creating and what we can learn from him ...

conclusions
1. This time, the “Holy Scripture” told us, among other things, how to achieve power and keep it. For this, it is very appropriate to use such "sanctified by God" methods as deception, betrayal, murder. A newcomer in power circles is invited to find strong allies, conclude a cooperation agreement with them, and then eliminate them (for example, with Abner and Amesay). It is also advisable to get rid of all who can claim a place, or keep them under control (Mephibosheth and 7 hanged grandchildren of Saul). All this information about the life and godly activities of the Jewish kings would not concern us in any way, if it remained just myths about the life of the ancient Jews. However, they were included in the "holy book" for half of the world's population, a book on which people swear to speak "the truth and only the truth", on which presidents of many countries swear allegiance. Interestingly, this mockery was deliberately invented by someone or was it “accidentally” it happened?
2. The Bible writes about the moral inferiority and criminality of Jewish kings and their offspring in a completely ordinary, boring and sleepy language, as if accustoming us to the fact that everything is allowed to them, and Jehovah is just so sick of it. The tsar's son raped his sister and abandoned her, the crowned dad beat off his wife from the war hero, violating the Mosaic commandment "Do not desire ...", and sent himself to death; another son was thirsty for power and he wove a conspiracy against his own father, from whom he learned all this. So routinely and even boringly it is told that the Jews killed thousands and thousands of innocent civilians: children, women, men and old people, and even cattle. And all this - with tacit approval and by order of the "all-loving" and "all-forgiving" sadist Jehovah. Well, isn't that idiocy? And the presidents and heads of government of many countries swear on this too! Or maybe they just know very well what they swear on and what the oaths on the Bible are worth? By the way, David's companions all over the world are multiplying diligent followers.
3. It's funny that the Bible is the primary source of such "sacred" acts as racket and holocaust ... And they were all done not by some bandit and bloody sadist, but by the "great" Jewish king David. This is his sign in the form of a six-pointed star, worn on his chest by his followers. By the way, the Holocaust is a Greek word for sacrifice among the ancient Jews, in which the sacrifice was completely devoured by fire. We found the first mention of this sacred and pious deed in ... the Bible. It turns out that it is true that the one who shouts “stop the thief” the loudest is, quite possibly, not entirely sincere.
4. The Bible and Christianity very persistently instill a slave mentality into the consciousness of man. All Christians are slaves of God, and since all power is from God, slaves also belong to the power! So ... don't blame me. "And Mephibosheth bowed down and said, What is thy servant, that thou hast looked upon such a dead dog as me?" (2 Sam. 9: 8). This is said by one representative of the royal family to another representative. Can you imagine, monkey? Even if the color of a nation is aristocracy - despicable slaves, dead dogs, then ... what can ordinary people be brought to?
5. For some reason, it seems that with the Bible we were all very much cheated! This book, which does not contain any wisdom (in the understanding of normal people, and not thieves, murderers and sadists), does not at all fit the role of a holy book, and even quite the opposite. She completely not sacred book; was written at one time for completely different creatures, who were not allowed along the path of movement of all mankind, but sent across it.

"3 book of Kings". Attraction of unprecedented wisdom or what is the "holiness" of the prophet Elijah

"The third book of kingdoms" completes our acquaintance with the treacherous king David and tells about who took his place. King David ruled the Jews for 40 years. In old age he got sick - he still could not get warm. So that Jehovah's deputy on earth would not knock out his last teeth, shaking from the cold, they found a living heating pad for him. A certain Avisaga Sunammite. The beautiful maiden both served and followed the king, but he could not recognize her. In general, David got worn out at hard work. Seeing this, David's fourth son, Adonijah, was preparing to sit in his father's place. After the death of the brothers Amnon and Absalom (nothing is known about the second son of David - Daluiah), he had the legal right to the throne. He was supported by very influential people of the state - the military leader Joab and the high priest Abiathar. However, a certain priest Zadok, the prophet Nathan and other "strong Davidovs", as well as the beloved wife of Bathsheba, made a small palace coup and persuaded the decrepit David to bypass the legitimate heir and put the seventh (!) Son at the head of the kingdom of Solomon.
Solomon was still anointed to the kingdom, and David was preparing to appear before God. Before his death, he asked Solomon "to act according to wisdom" and to punish Joab, his faithful but too independent military leader - for the death of Abner and Amesa - as well as a certain Semey, who called him somehow a murderer and wicked. Incredibly, even with one foot in the grave, David was in his repertoire - he tried to remove unwanted employees with someone else's hands, even if it were the hands of his own son. However, the son did not mind, especially since it was in his interests to get rid of Joab, a very influential person at the court of David, who, moreover, supported Adonijah.
Here Solomon followed the example of his father and chose to play the executioner a certain Beneya, the son of Iodaev. Finding an insignificant reason (Adonijah asked for an Avisaga-hot-water bottle), Solomon ordered Vania to get rid of his brother, although he promised that not a single hair would fall from his head, and from the commander Joab. Joab was stabbed right in the sanctuary, despite the fact that he grabbed the horns of the altar. This was a terrible sin - the law forbade killing at the altar so as not to desecrate the sanctuary. However, Jehovah did not react in any way to this obvious violation and did not punish Benaiah for sacrilege, although he sometimes punished him with death for less (2 Kings 6: 6-7), and the new king even appointed him commander-in-chief. Thanks to the continuous wars of the previous kings Saul and David, Solomon inherited a very vast country - "from the Euphrates River to the land of the Philistines and to the borders of Egypt." In addition, the Almighty also favored the newly anointed one. One day he came to Solomon and offered gifts to choose from. The modest tsar, the "little lad," asked for a reasonable heart. Jehovah liked this, and he weighed Solomon with a mind that no one ever had and never will.
Here, most likely the biblical writers overdid it. It is, of course, clear that our tsar is the most, the most ... However, it seems that rumors about the exorbitant Solomon wisdom are slightly exaggerated. As an illustration of embodied wisdom, the Bible cites the following incident. Two harlots (!!) easily came to the king (!), Who did not share one child, and Solomon proposed a Solomon solution - to cut the child in half and give the halves to the arguing ladies (1 Kings 3: 16-27). The real mother, of course, agreed to give up her child, if only it remained alive. And the wise Solomon immediately realized who the child belongs to by right. This unparalleled episode, according to the biblical writers, should have convinced everyone of the deepest wisdom of King Solomon. However, the only thing he convinces the thinking reader is in the primitivism, artificiality and far-fetchedness of the described episode.
In fact, intelligence and intelligence (or maybe just laziness) are evidenced by what Solomon understood - he did not need to fight. He preferred to enter into trade alliances and pay off commercial debts with his cities (1 Kings 9: 10-11). Peace has come to Israel. Trade developed at a rapid pace. Every year the treasury was successfully replenished through taxes and tributes paid to Israel by the conquered peoples. Everything was so peaceful and festive that even silver was depreciated so much that it became equivalent to ordinary stones. And although “Judas and Israel, as numerous as the sand by the sea, ate, drank, and rejoiced,” in reality, the life of the Jews was not entirely sweet. Solomon decided to build a temple to Jehovah, a palace for himself, and also to enclose Jerusalem with a fortress wall. This required a huge number of workers. The remnants of the Amorites, Hittites, Perrezeans, Hivites and Jebusites were turned into quitrent workers (1 Kings 9: 20-21).
On free Jews, the king imposed a duty of 30,000 people (1 Kings 5:13). He sent them to felling in Lebanon to cut cedar. The work was so hard that it was necessary to work on a rotational basis - teams of 10,000 people were replaced every three months. In addition, 70,000 heavy carriers and 80,000 stonecutters worked for Solomon. The Bible details the temple that Solomon built for Jehovah in Jerusalem. The structure (60x20x30 cubits) was richly decorated, both outside and inside. A huge amount of gold, silver and copper was used to decorate it.
Among the decorations of the temple there were several very controversial things from the point of view of the Mosaic laws. Two cherubim, ten cubits each, with two wings, five cubits each (though how they looked is not described - a strange omission of the biblical writers). Two pillar-statues with their own names: Jachin and Boaz (not otherwise than idols?). The cast copper sea of \u200b\u200bunknown purpose was propped up by 12 bodies. On the brass stands were depicted oxen, lions, and cherubs. The temple also kept a banner with a brass serpent, strengthened by Moses (Num. 21: 9). All of this was very contrary to the second commandment. "Do not make yourself an idol and no image of what is in the sky above, and what is on the earth below, and what is in the water below the earth" (Ex. 20: 4). It can be seen that the Mosaic commandments very squeakily took root in the minds of "tough" Jews, even 500 years after the exodus and bloody domestication in the desert.
Having worked gloriously for the good of the fatherland, Solomon did not forget about himself. And he had 700 wives and 300 concubines (an additional burden on taxpayers). Moreover, they were foreigners, most of them were the ones about whom it was said "Do not enter to them, and let them not enter to you, lest they incline your heart to their Gods"... Moreover, the vile foreigners inclined his heart to the alien Gods, he set up temples for them according to their faith, and he himself began to serve both Astarte and Asa, the son of Abijah. Served Jehovah faithfully. He even stripped his mother of the title of queen and personally hacked the idol of Astarte belonging to her. I had sore legs. Jehoshaphat, son of Asa, ruled for 25 years.
Jeroboam ruled Israel for 22 years. Turned away from Jehovah. He set up two bulls, set up temples for idols. His son Navat ruled for 2 years. Jehovah did not celebrate. He was overthrown by the conspirator Baasa, who destroyed the entire family of Jeroboam "according to the word of the Lord." He himself, however, did not honor Jehovah. Ila, son of Vaasa. He reigned for 2 years. He annoyed Jehovah with non-worship. He died as a result of the conspiracy of the military leader Zambri, who again "according to the word of the Lord" destroyed the entire family of Vaasa. I ruled for 7 days. He was defeated by his rival Omri. Burned down in the palace, which he himself set on fire. Omri reigned for 6 years. He did what was wrong with Jehovah. After him, his son Ahab reigned for 22 years. This pagan king, together with his wife Jezebel, who destroyed the prophets of Jehovah, especially vexed God.
Jehovah had only one prophet, Elijah, who was fed by the ravens with meat and bread. The glory of the prophet - the lord of the rain and the healer of the breathless - grew. Jehovah told Elijah to go and "show himself to Ahab." To resolve the dispute over who, whom and with what Gods he was embarrassed by, Elijah ordered (?!) Ahab to gather 450 prophets of Baal and 400 prophets of the groves on a hill (it turns out that then the poor prophets allowed themselves to order the kings, and they rushed with all their might to fulfill their prophetic commands ).
Elijah suggested a competition. Each of the groups had to take the calf, put it on the wood, but not set it on fire, but appeal to their God. The God who answers with fire is the coolest. In the end, naturally, Jehovah won, sending fire, which ate everything: the calf, and water, and stones, and dust. Baal was put to shame. His servants, naturally false prophets, were to be destroyed. Elijah carried out the sentence with his own hand (!) - stabbed 450 Baal prophets. The Bible is silent about what happened to the 400 oak prophets. However, we doubt that Iliev's hand was "tired" and, most likely, he finished off those who remained the next day.
Such were God's people and deeds then ...

conclusions
1. The Bible repeatedly extols Solomon's vaunted wisdom. However, these statements are not supported by any factual material. The episode with the "wise" resolution of the dispute between the two prostitutes cannot be taken seriously. Moreover, it causes more confusion and new questions than approval and understanding. The only place where we saw the wisdom of King Solomon was his peaceful policy and the economic prosperity of the Jewish kingdom. However, so little information is devoted to this in the text that it becomes clear that this wisdom was not at all dear to the hearts of the biblical writers.
2. But the "sacred" book describes in detail how to deceive a neighbor and appropriate his property. For example, if you really wanted to get a neighboring vineyard, and the owner refuses to give it up for nothing, you just need to hire two false witnesses who would say that the owner blasphemed God and the king. The owner of the vineyard will be stoned to death. Further, as a sign of grief, you need to rip your clothes, put on sackcloth and ... take possession of the property (1 Kings 21: 1-16).
3. Nothing of the world was foreign to Jehovah's prophets. Continuing the ancient tradition begun by Moses, “God's people” adored the mass extermination of the public for the glory of the Almighty. A special piquancy of the situation was given by the fact that, in biblical examples, as a rule, the gentiles were exterminated (for example, 450 Baal prophets). The bloody imposition of the cult of Jehovah served as an excellent example of the method of spreading the Christian faith: by fire, sword and all other “sacred methods”.
4. The Bible very persistently explains all the successes and failures of Jewish kings solely by adherence to or falling away from Jehovah. However, after carefully examining the line of Israelite and Jewish kings, we notice that Jehovah is absolutely not punished those who served other Gods, and those who devotedly served him, were practically not encouraged in any way. For example, Solomon, who later fell away from Jehovah, reigned very successfully for 40 years and his great-grandson Asa, who faithfully served Jehovah, also ruled for 40 years, but he suffered from a disease of his feet, and the Lord did not heal him for his devotion. The kings of Israel in general, without exception, were mired in "abomination". And if Baasa destroyed the entire family of Jeroboam, allegedly for falling away from the true faith, then the conspirator himself, who sat on the throne, wanted to spit on her (faith). However, he reigned without problems for 24 years.
Not only could Jehovah not get the true faith from the leaders of the state, he could not even protect his own house, built for him by Solomon - the Egyptian king Susakim during the reign of Solomon's son Rehoboam, removed all the treasures from there, taking the treasures of the palace along the way. However, sometimes he was pierced, and he, having gathered all his strength, "helped" the elect (even on the pages of the Bible) - 7,000 Israelites struck 100,000 Syrians, and those who fled were crushed by a wall. Yes, all the 27,000 remaining Syrians diligently and compactly huddled under one special wall and patiently waited for it to crush them all (otherwise there would be nothing to write in the Bible).
5. On the whole, we have once again become convinced that the ways and actions of the biblical tribal Almighty turned out to be so inscrutable that they cause a very strong doubt about the sanity of the biblical writers and editors of this book. In addition, another logical question arises, are we normal, who seriously believe in all this nonsense?

The meaning of the expression is it's hard to go against the shred was a proverb, which got its beginning from the fact that oxen who lagged behind the herd often run into trouble, those. are driven by the tip of the end of a stick and, receiving a sensitive pain from that, accelerate the pace behind the herd. As a result, the proverb means the stupidity and madness of people who resist the command of the authorities or the admonition of their conscience. Most pagan writers cite this proverb in friendly circles to show the absurdity of such resistance.


Bible. Old and New Testaments. Synoidal translation. Bible Encyclopedia..

“And the land had rest for forty years. And Othniel the son of Kenaz died ”(Judges 3:11). “After his death, the situation of the Israelites deteriorated again due to the re-emerging period of anarchy, and since they turned away from worship and completely ceased to obey the laws, their affairs went worse and worse, so that the Moabite king Eglon, who noticed their internal troubles, went to war against them. He succeeded in defeating them in several battles, forcing them to abandon all thought of independence, completely crushing their forces and imposing a significant tribute on them. Then he erected a palace for himself in Jericho, began to oppress the people in every possible way and, for eighteen years, brought it to the final ruin. " [Flavius. Decree. op. T. 1. Book 5. Chapter 4, 1. P. 236]. So, in the new terrible misfortune that befell them, the Israelites themselves were to blame. King Eglon captures them not so much because of the power of his weapons, but because of the troubles and schisms that began among the Israelites themselves. Moreover, their political instability was a direct consequence of the violation of God's Law. The Book of Proverbs reveals one of the universal mechanisms of civil war, which works unswervingly in any society and in any time period. “When a country deviates from the law, then there are many rulers in it” (Prov. 28: 2). Violation of God's commandments - do not kill, do not covet, do not steal - leads to a criminal crisis. Violation of the commandments - do not commit adultery, honor your father and mother - to the crisis of the institution of the family. Violation of the commandment - do not bear false witness - leads to a judicial crisis, and violation of "do not make yourself an idol" - to disrespect for the One God, and desecration of the Sabbath - to the loss of spiritual values \u200b\u200bthat society should be guided by. As a result, the necessary prerequisites for a complex crisis are created, covering all aspects of society. Moreover, it is impossible to cure it with human materialistic methods. For how to understand what is good and what is bad, what is possible and what is not, if God is lost, and with Him - a system of spiritual values, a moral law. Today we live in a similar time when the world is trying to resolve the global crisis with economic, social and other programs. But how can this be done if there is an open propaganda of debauchery, alcoholism, cruelty. Why can't you steal if you can commit adultery? And why is it necessary to respect the authorities, if God can be disregarded, trampling on His Authority by breaking the Sabbath? A society cannot be healthy without spiritually healthy families and an individual. A similar spiritual crisis, which preceded Israel's conquest by Eglon, we had in 1917, when dark forces ruled at the royal court, the intelligentsia revels in the occult, the people partly formally went to church, partly they lived worshiping Mammon, and partly they were preparing to build a society through class fight. The same was experienced by England under Cromwell, and France - during the revolution of 1789, and Spain during the time of General Franco. Therefore, King Eglon did not have much difficulty in conquering the people who were experiencing a similar crisis. The second mechanism of what happened to Israel is revealed by the Book of Judges. “The sons of Israel began to do evil again in the eyes of the Lord, and the Lord strengthened Eglon king of Moab against the Israelites, because they did evil in the eyes of the Lord” (Judges 3:12). At first glance, amazing! God strengthens the Gentile Eglon against His own people. “Where is God's love,” many will exclaim! But at this amazing biblical statement, the human exclamation will be even more surprised, for the answer is that this is precisely what God's love is about. It is precisely in the fact that God strengthens Eglon, allowing him to subdue the Israelite people. The fact is that the main goal of the Lord is the salvation of man. But often we do not respond to God's love, preferring to go our own way, to our own destruction. We walk so confidently that we do not pay any attention to God's various calls to stop. And then the Lord is forced to stop us using the methods that our sinful nature understands. And that is why He, at times, allows such Eglons to appear in our life. Further, this verse shows that God is the Lord of history, and nothing happens without His will. This does not mean that He approves of everything that happens in our world. Of course not. But at the same time, He allows, at times, a lot, firstly, because evil becomes a choice for many people, and Christ does not force the will of a person, and secondly, in order to stop a person on his disastrous path through the admission of various problems, and thus through temporary suffering to save him for eternal life. Finally, it is no coincidence that it was Eglon who became the conqueror of Israel. The fact is that the Bible (Judges 3:17) and ancient chronicles emphasize the extraordinary obesity of the king, the reason for which was the intemperance in food, bliss and entertainment that this ruler had. The overwhelming majority of the rulers of antiquity were warriors who directly led the troops and participated in battles. But this Moabite king preferred abundant food and sleep. And therefore, with his body weight, of course, it was difficult for him to move. Eglon indulged his carnal nature. But Israel at that time behaved exactly the same way. We have already seen above how a quiet life for their own pleasure led to the Jews abandoning their God-destined mission to cleanse Canaan from sin, to crush the corrupted nations. But instead, the Israelites themselves soon began to behave as carnally as the other Canaanites. They became spiritually obese. And obesity in the Bible is one of the symbols of sin. Thus, describing the sinfulness of the people, Jeremiah says: “They have become fat, fat, they have even overstepped every measure in evil, they do not examine court cases, orphans; prosper, and the just cause of the poor is not judged ”(Jer. 5:28). When speaking of the wicked, King David compares them to fat calves. “Many bulls have surrounded me; the fat Bashan ones have surrounded me ”(Ps. 21:13). God punishes this spiritual obesity. “The wrath of God came against them, killed their fat ones” (Psalm 77:31). “For this the Lord, the Lord of hosts, will send stuntedness on his fat ones, and among his famous ones he will kindle a flame like a flame of fire” (Isa. 10:16). The same spiritual obesity will accompany many of those in our day who regard themselves as God's church and about whom Christ says: “For you say: 'I am rich, I have become rich and have no need of anything'; but you do not know that you are unhappy, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked ”(Rev. 4:17). Spiritual obesity is complacency, self-sufficiency, it is worship of the cult of carnal desires and lusts. Gradually, this carnal man kills the spiritual in us, and we become carnal people. Obesity envelops our minds, thoughts, hearts. We drift with spiritual fat, grow dull and spiritually degrade. As long as this "fat man" is alive and ruled by us, we will never see freedom. Obese people always sleep a lot, so we will also spiritually doze off, not noticing the signs of the times in which we live. And then the time of the Second Coming of Christ will come up unnoticed for us, and we will find ourselves among those who are not ready for it. And again the children of Israel remembered about God. “Then the children of Israel cried to the Lord” (Judges 3:15). “In Jericho there lived a certain young man from the tribe of Benjamin, by the name of Ehud, the son of Gere, who was distinguished by great courage, courage and enterprise, along with extraordinary physical strength, which was especially in his left hand, which he acted better than his right. He was his own man at Eglon, since he managed to attract the latter's favorable attention with various gifts and small services, as a result of which all those around the king were friendly to him. One day, accompanied by two servants, he carried gifts to the king. Secretly, he tied a sword to his right thigh under his robe, and thus entered the king. It was in the summer, at noon, when the guards, partly because of the intense heat, and partly being busy with dinner, sent out their service rather sluggishly. Having handed Eglon, who was in the summer pavilion, gifts, the young man entered into a long conversation with him. They were alone in the room, because the king, so that there would be no witnesses during their pastime, ordered the servants to leave. Since he was sitting on the throne, Judas was afraid that he might miss and inflict a non-fatal blow. Therefore, he prompted the king to get up from his seat, saying that he had, by the command of God, to inform him about the dream he had seen. When the king, rejoicing to hear the details of this dream, jumped off his throne, Judas thrust a sword into his heart, did not extract it from the corpse, but quickly left, locking the door behind him. Meanwhile, the king's servants dozed, believing that their master had fallen asleep. Meanwhile, Judas immediately notified the inhabitants of Jericho of what had happened and began to convince them to regain their freedom. They learned about this with pleasure, immediately took up arms and sent messengers throughout the country, who were to blow their horns, as it was established to call the entire people into the assembly. Meanwhile, Eglon's associates remained in the dark about the misfortune that befell them. When evening came, they, in fear that something had happened to the king, broke into the pavilion and, finding there a corpse, stood for a long time in complete daze. But before it was possible to collect all the guard, a crowd of Israelites had already attacked them, so that some were killed on the spot, while others fled towards the country of Moab, seeking salvation there. The latter were over ten thousand. However, the Israelis succeeded in taking the Jordan ford in advance; therefore they beat many enemies during the pursuit, and then even more near the river, so that none of them escaped death here. In this way the Jews were freed from the yoke of Moab, but Judas was honored by the people for this by the fact that he was completely entrusted with the government of the people. He enjoyed this power for eighty years, after which he died, being a man who deserved praise and in addition to the above-mentioned act. " [Flavius. Decree. op. T. 1. Book 5. Chapter 4. P. 236-237]. So, Israel, having thrown off spiritual obesity, overthrew the fat king Eglon, who had tormented them for 18 years. Have we overthrown from ourselves that fat tsar who, perhaps, not only lives, but also completely dominates our hearts? Isn't the fat King Eglon ruled over us? Are we not swollen with spiritual obesity that closes our minds, hearts, and eyes? We still have a little time to overthrow this ominous fat king, until he finally ruins us.
