He transforms the action to the understanding of the action; that is, myth explains the ritual.\u00a0 In the conception of ritual you act according to the law.\u00a0 In this aspect, sin is a positive act of breaking the law.\u00a0 But for the Gospel, law is the foundation of the human act, not the super\u2013structure.\u00a0 Sin is the failure to transmute the law into human life.\u00a0 All theories of law, justice and judgment are expressed by Jesus in spiritual terms.\u00a0 The Gospel is not a new law.<\/p>\n<p>The law supposes a judge and a person as prisoner.\u00a0 The Last Judgment is usually seen as God \u201cup there\u201d with the people below as sheep and goats.\u00a0 But the sheep and goats are not human, and Jesus does not judge; he casts out devils, and the swine go over the cliff into the \u201cdeep,\u201d which is the Hebrew word \u201ctome,\u201d meaning nothingness.\u00a0 The arena of the Last Judgment is the human soul.\u00a0 God enters into the human soul and with His help we cast out the goats, the devils within us,<\/p>\n<p>The apocalypse of personality is God\u2019s descent into the human soul.\u00a0 The Gospel does not bring peace, but a sword.\u00a0 It discriminates and divides.\u00a0 It brings the principle of absolute separation of good and bad in the world.\u00a0 The sheep are the pure, those who have used their talents.\u00a0 The bad are those who have not used their talents, but have buried them.<\/p>\n<p>The myth of the Gospel is the explanation of ceremonial cleanliness.\u00a0 The white sheep are separated from the black goats, the light from the dark, the human from the monstrous.\u00a0 The image to sum up Jesus is the act of casting out devils, the forgiveness of sin.\u00a0 The power of God descending into the human soul to cast out evil even as Jesus descended into the human and fallen world to cast out devils.\u00a0 It happens <span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">in<\/span> man.\u00a0 It is the descent of divine power into man.\u00a0 You cannot make a sheep out of a goat. \u00a0The sheep is a sheep no matter if it has strayed and been lost. Jesus will <span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">find<\/span> the lost sheep.<\/p>\n<p>Sin is the negative act which fundamentally does not exist since all action is positive and good.\u00a0 The driving out of goats is driving \u201cnothing\u201d out to achieve the complete reality of unfallen man.\u00a0 I know this sounds like a riddle, but play with it for a while . . . .<\/p>\n<p>If casting out devils is the symbol of Jesus\u2019 activity, then we see the relation between prophet and hero more clearly. \u00a0The prophet is the observer, the watcher, the interpreter of the hero\u2019s action.\u00a0 For the hero or king, what is the heroic act?<\/p>\n<p>Fundamentally, it is the destruction of the powers of darkness.\u00a0 The Gospel tells you the spiritual aspect of the physical act.\u00a0 The religious experience is crystallized in the dragon-killing myth.<\/p>\n<p>The Saviour withdraws man from the dragon so that he can see it is not alive after all.\u00a0 The fairy tale of St. George and the dragon, or the Perseus and Andromache legend, are not just \u201cstories.\u201d\u00a0 St. George is the symbol of the sun, of life, hence his colour is red.\u00a0 The dragon and the old man are the same; winter, waste, sterility.\u00a0 In medieval drama the old king is dressed up inside the dragon.\u00a0 In most variations of this story there is a sinister old woman to balance off the young daughter.\u00a0 In the same way, Perseus has to kill Medusa before he can get cracking on the dragon.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">LEVIATHAN, THE POWER OF DARKNESS<\/span><\/p>\n<p>The power of darkness in the Bible is Leviathan, the dragon.\u00a0 The Messiah is the dragon-killer.\u00a0 The pure \u201cnature\u201d force in the dragon isn\u2019t enough; the dragon is also an enemy.\u00a0 In Ezekiel he is associated with the King of Tyre, a tyrant.\u00a0 The hero\u2019s army is of another tribe or nation or social group.\u00a0 It can be an unrighteous nation of a city like Babylon or Tyre.\u00a0 In Psalms 87 and 89, Leviathan is also called Rahab\u2013\u2013\u201cthou has broken Rahab in pieces.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The dragon of folklore means the powers of chaos and waste.\u00a0 The parable of \u201ca certain young man went down from Jerusalem to Jericho\u201d means he went down from the unfallen state to the fallen state because Rahab lives at Jericho.\u00a0 Leviathan or Rahab means tyranny in some form.\u00a0 The hero is fighting for liberty against tyranny.\u00a0 It sounds phony, but it is something like that. \u00a0The activity of Jesus becomes the true form of the hero\u2019s act; casting out devils equals the killing of the enemy of man.<\/p>\n<p>Ezekiel 29: 3\u20134:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>I am against thee, Pharaoh, King of Egypt, the great dragon that lieth in the midst of his rivers, which hath said, my river is mine own and I have made it for myself.<\/p>\n<p>But I have put hooks into thy jaws and I will cause the fish of thy rivers to stick unto thy scales and I will bring thee out of the midst of they rivers and all the fish of thy rivers shall stick unto thy scales.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Chap. 32: 2 (of Pharaoh): \u201cthou art as a whale in the sea.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Psalm 74: 13\u20134:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Thou did not divide the sea by thy strength; thou brakest the heads of the dragon in the waters.<\/p>\n<p>Thou brakest the heads of leviathan in pieces, and gavest him to be meat to the people inhabiting the wilderness.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Isaiah 27: 1:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>In that day the Lord with his sore and great and strong sword shall punish leviathan the piercing serpent; even leviathan that crooked serpent; and he shall slay the dragon that is in the sea.<\/p>\n<p>In the Gospels, leviathan is the sea monster; but God can control the sea.\u00a0 The hauling of leviathan out of the sea is important to the fishing symbolism in the Gospel.\u00a0 Jesus is the fisher or men.\u00a0 The fish are not in the sea by accident.\u00a0 Leviathan <span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">is<\/span> the sea. When he is drawn out, the sea no longer exists, only rivers circulating freely.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The complete Religious Knowledge class notes can be found in the Robert D.
