“Now,
because the virgin woman named Abah had no family, no man with a
family pedigree known from ancient times, would marry her in those
times when an unmarried woman was worth less than a sick pig sold at
a market.” (“The Other Bible.” Library of
Congress.)
This
was the second
time that it was recorded “there was a day when the Sons of God
came to present themselves before the Lord; and Satan came also among
them.”
The
first time was about two centuries earlier in the lifetime of that
perfectly good man named Job of whom almighty God Jehovah Himself
said,
“There
is none like him on the Earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that
feareth God, and escheweth evil?”
In
that first-time record the name of Satan was the only Son of God
named. That was because Jehovah’s family at that time was a
happy family.
However,
after the time of Job a war broke out in Heaven; a war between
Jehovah God and some of his fourteen Sons.
And
so this second visit was bedeviled by a myriad of tensions in the
Jehovah family.
The
names of the Seven righteous Sons who sided with their Dad in that
family war were: Gabriel, Michael, Raguel, Raphael, Remiel, Saraquel,
and Uriel.
The
names of Jehovah’s evil Seven Sons who made war against their
Father, were: Asmodeus, Beelzebub, Belphegor, Leviathan, Lucifer,
Mammon, and Satan.
Those
myriads of tensions would have been considerably less had Raphael
been present at that second visit. The evil Seven were determined to
not show their disappointment at Raphael’s absence.
Raphael
was the only one of the righteous Seven brothers who truly never
stopped trying to include his evil Seven brothers in his righteous
life. This is why to this day in that Land of Nod to which Jehovah
God banished Cain for having murdered his brother Abel, Raphael is
regarded with equal esteem with almighty God, Jehovah; and why on one
Day of the year, Raphael is bowed to as being, on that Day, more
important to righteous living than all the almighty Gods who were
present when Jehovah God created the world and mortal things. The
name of that Day is known within Nod only.
The
reason for this second visit to Heaven of the evil Seven was that
they were determined to torment a young woman named Abah who lived in
the Mesopotamian city named Nineveh, but they did not want to risk
offending their Dad, again.
The
evil Seven had found out that their Dad had sent their brother
Raphael on a secret mission on Earth. Before they began tormenting
that Abah woman in Ninevah, they wanted to be certain they would not
be interfering with Raphael’s secret mission.
Before
Jehovah could ask the evil Seven for their reason for wanting to
torment Abah, they eagerly told Him.
They
enjoyed participating in all the countless evil ways in Nineveh, the
capital City of the Assyrian Empire. An indication of just how evil
Nineveh was is the fact that the Emperor of the Assyrian Empire,
Sennacherib, was assassinated by his sons Adrammelech and Sharezer in
Nineveh.
One
of those evil Nineveh ways Jehovah’s Seven evil sons loved to
engage in was masquerading as and taking the place of mortal
newly-wed husbands for the first night-or-two of a marriage between a
mortal man and a mortal woman.
And
so when the woman named Abah chose to not marry, the Seven evil Sons
were offended. Being evil, they took it personally; they could not
help themselves since they had inherited the need for vengeance from
their Dad, Jehovah, who had pridefully announced universally, more
than once, “To me belongeth vengeance.”; “Vengeance
is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord.” Et cetera, et cetera.
The
Seven evil ones were determined to devise a scheme whereby they would
wreak revenge on Abah, for all eternity. And, whatever that scheme
turned out to be, Asmodeus, the youngest of the evil Seven, insisted
their punishment of Abah culminate with him crucifying Abah, and
roasting her on a cross, and then feasting on her cooked flesh,
which, of course would give off “a sweet savor” in his
Divinely curly overgrown-hairy nostrils.
When
the evil Seven had finished telling Jehovah their evil intentions, He
did not disapprove because He knew that in a short while He would
have to do something drastic about the evil in Nineveh, anyway. And,
too, being evil was instinctively natural to Jehovah, the Bible
recording at least thirty-nine times Jehovah willingly and
deliberately allied Himself with evil:
“The
evil spirit from the Lord was upon Saul.” “Thus saith the
Lord, I will bring evil upon thee.” “Behold, the Lord
hath spoken evil against thee.” Et cetera, et cetera.
Jehovah
did, however, require them to wait for the go-ahead from Him in the
next few says because He was waiting for Raphael’s report. He,
Jehovah, had to be certain Raphael’s secret mission did not
encompass Nineveh which He, Jehovah fully intended to annihilate with
his own hands.
Abah
was an orphan in the City of Nineveh in the Land of Mesopotamia of
the Medes and the Persians.
About
two centuries earlier, almighty God Jehovah had said of Nineveh, to
Jonah, son of Amittai, “That great city wherein are more than
six score thousand persons that cannot discern between their right
hand and their left hand.”
In
those times almighty Jehovah sent Jonah, son of Amittai, to warn the
Governor of Nineveh that if the sinful people of Nineveh continued in
their wicked ways, that great city would suffer the fate of Sodom and
Gomorrah which God Jehovah had utterly destroyed with brimstone and
fire which He rained down upon Sodom and Gomorrah from on high
through his angry mouth and nostrils.
Jonah,
son of Amittai, was successful. The Governor and all the Ninevites
repented. Almighty God, reluctantly, spared the city.
By
the time of Abah the orphan, the city of Nineveh had regressed to its
evil ways. There was more wickedness than in the times of Jonah, son
of Amittai.
There
was a Woman slave from Upper Egypt that had been abandoned in
Nineveh. She had organized the other abandoned girls and women on the
streets of Nineveh into a House of Clothing Repairs.
That
House was never short of business. That former slave from Upper Egypt
paid Her workers, and She contracted with them that they should obey
Her strict rules of righteous behavior and total living.
The
money those women earned and the reputation for righteousness the
House had earned, had enabled the women to attract good men to marry.
When
the time came that Abah could afford to accept a husband, she
requested of the Woman from Upper Egypt that she, Abah, neither marry
nor bear children, as that Woman Herself lived.
The
Upper Egypt Woman allowed Abah to work and live single in the House
of Clothing Repairs as long as Abah wished. The Woman granted Abah
the request as a wise decision in the evil city of Nineveh.
The
Woman did not try to enquire of Abah her reason for her wise and most
practical decision because from the first time Abah had entered the
House and asked to be hired to learn to repair clothes, the Woman had
sensed in Abah a unique difference from the other workers.
Closer
than She had done with all Her other workers, She had monitored
Abah’s daily lifestyle, diligently. In all the years Abah
worked in the House of Clothing Repairs, the Woman was deeply
satisfied that Her sensing at the beginning Abah’s unique
difference among all the others, was accurate, ever and continuously.
When
Raphael returned to Jehovah in Heaven from his assignment, and was
informed of the failures with Abah of the Seven evil Sons of God, and
of God’s decision to not get involved with the intention of
Asmodeus to utterly ruin Abah for all eternity, he, Raphael, asked
God to delay Asmodeus until he, Raphael, too, was given a turn to
save Abah by seducing her to marry him, Raphael, in the form of a
man.
When
Asmodeus was told of Raphael’s request, he was enraged.
However, he was overruled by all of his other six evil brothers who
were determined to not trigger a second war against their Dad and
their Seven righteous siblings.
Especially
Lucifer, the eldest of the evil Seven Sons of God, spoke firmly to
Asmodeus to dissuade Asmodeus because Lucifer still suffered pains
and pangs from the injuries, physical and mental and spiritual, from
the last failed time he had led his six evil siblings against his Dad
and his Dad’s Seven righteous Sons; Lucifer’s own Seven
righteous siblings.
God
said to Raphael that he, Raphael, was allowed to have a turn at Abah,
but only after he, Raphael, had given God his report of his findings
of Raphael’s secret mission.
Jehovah
had secretly sent Raphael to locate where the Witches of Endor had
hidden themselves.
According
to the Bible, by immutable laws of the infinite universe, Witches are
as almighty as Gods like Jehovah. At the Beginning, Jehovah was
offended when Witches suddenly appeared in a place named Endor on the
sixth day of His six-days creation of everything on the Earth.
Jehovah was most keenly knew He had not created Witches.
A
significant proof that a Witch’s existence is inviolably
independent of almighty God Jehovah’s existence is that King
Saul, chosen by Jehovah Himself to be the first king of Jehovah’s
Chosen Race of people, paid a Witch for her cauldron-prophetic
services, in determined deliberate defiance of Jehovah’s
explicit commandment: “Thou shalt not suffer a Witch to live.”
While
He knew He had no power to expel the Witches, Jehovah forbade the
people He had created from accepting Witches among them:
“Thou
shalt not suffer a Witch to live. A man or woman who hath a familiar
spirit, or that is a wizard, shall surely be put to death. They shall
be stoned; their blood shall be upon themselves.”
Raphael
reported that he had located where the Witches had gone after they
had left Endor in Mesopotamia to go live far away enough to be
inaccessible to Jehovah’s Chosen Race of people.
The
Witches, although they knew they were beyond Jehovah’s powers
wherever they lived and offered their cauldron-prophetic services to
all people for money and other payments, always-and-ever did
everything, albeit at a great distance far away removed, to live in
harmony with Jehovah and all fourteen of His Sons.
The
Witches had so successfully re-located from Endor and hidden their
whereabouts, that Jehovah had lost all knowledge about them. And so He
had sent Raphael to search the infinite Universe to find the
Witches.
Raphael
reported to his Father Jehovah that he, Raphael, had found the
Witches living happily ever after, hidden by their spells, in the
inhospitable deserts of Upper Egypt. He reported, as well, that he
had been about to leave Upper Egypt without having discovered the
Witches there, until they revealed themselves to him.
The
Witches also, in sincere kindness, notified Raphael that he, Raphael,
would be the last time they would let live anyone from Jehovah’s
family who did not stay away from them. In a gesture of friendship,
they had given Raphael a talisman charm to wear that would reveal to
him whenever he was in danger of violating an Endor Witch’s
personal space.
Jehovah
listened to Raphael’s report, and knew He had no choice but to
obey the Endor Witches’ warning.
While
it was common wisdom that neither almighty Gods nor Endor Witches
could lastingly hurt each other, neither knew if either could kill
each other. Jehovah was resolved to never submit to the temptation to
be the first to attempt to find out.
With
Jehovah’s permission and blessing, Raphael went to the evil
city of Nineveh on the mission to rescue Abah from the Biblical curse
of spinsterhood.
Raphael,
having been on that mission to Upper Egypt, knew instantly what had
to be done when he entered the House of Clothing Repairs in Nineveh,
where, unknown to both of them, he caught sight of Abah and the Upper
Egypt Woman in charge, in earnest conversation about a clothing
repair matter.
Raphael
hastened back to report to almighty God, Jehovah, his Father, that
Asmodeus was in grave danger of eternal extinction if he, Asmodeus,
tried to hurt Abah, because Abah and the owner of the House of
Clothing Repairs, probably unknown to themselves, were, indeed,
immortal Witches!
