No Exception. Divorce and The Weakness of Moses.

Before Moses, divorce was already a wrong choice.

He (Jesus) said to them, “Because of your hardness of heart Moses permitted you to divorce your wives; but from the beginning it has not been this way.”

New American Standard Bible: 1995 Update (La Habra, CA: The Lockman Foundation, 1995), Mt 19:8.

Why was divorce allowed in the OT? This was a question that Jesus turned on the Jewish leaders in the Gospel of Matthew chapter 19 when they asked Him if is is lawful for a man to divorce his wife for any reason. Jesus here reinforces the idea that divorce was not an option from the beginning since from the beginning a husband and wife are one flesh when previously they were two. Moses allowed it due to the “hardness of their hearts.”

Prior to this, the covenant was preserved as any vow or oath stood, and not as a contract. Malachi warns against “dealing treacherously with the wife of your youth” (Malachi 2:14). Following these words in Malachi, the prophet continues speak on behalf of God. God’s position on divorce is very clear, “he hates the putting away [divorce]” (v. 16) said Mala­chi.

Malachi, like Jesus, had to remind Judah of God’s original plan in marriage, “And did not he make one?” (v. 15). Man and woman were to leave their fathers and mothers to become “one flesh” (Gen. 2:24). In creating man and woman God was still left with the “residue of the spirit” (2:15). Why did God make them one? For the fruit of godly offspring. Has not God been ONE Father to us all? Has not ONE God created us? (Malachi 2:10). He has not adulterated Himself to any and His offspring are to be ONE.

Now, concerning the ONE thing, let’s explore the unity of the flesh of Adam and Eve. Adam, we know, was created from the dust of the ground. Eve was formed from the “side” of Adam. The Hebrew for “side” sela can be interpreted as something from his inside, as in a “rib,” but more than that, his “side.” The word is used for hillside, mountainside, and extension of a building. It’s a architectural term meaning to split, as in section. It could easily be seen as Adam being cut, or sectioned, (in half) and from the two halves came a man and woman. And the two were one “flesh.” The Hebrew word for “flesh” is bassar. It is a word can not only apply to human and animal flesh, but with sacrificial ordinances and covenant obligations (Lev 7:17).

And Adam said:

"This is now bone of my bones
And flesh of my flesh;
She shall be called Woman (Heb. Ishaah),
Because she was taken out of Man."(Heb. Ish).

The New King James Version (Nashville: Thomas Nelson, 1982), Ge 2:23.

Why does God hate divorce so? Because it violates His original and intentional plan for marriage (Gen. 2:24; Mt. 19:4-6) and brings untold hard­ship on those involved, destroying both the family and society. Jesus is speaking to a Jewish audience who understood marriage would be first engaged then consummated. If the exception clause exists, it is to ensure that virginity is the emphasis when selecting a spouse. Putting someone away for porneia ensured that if one is discovered to have not been a virgin at marriage, then the consummation must not be allowed. Jesus emphasized it when He said, “Anyone who marries a divorced woman/man is guilty of adultery.” To harmonize the Old Testament Mosaic exception, we have to find agreement with this since Deut. 22:22; Lev. 20:10-18 reveal to us that adultery is punishable by death.

Execute Order “6-7”

SO, do you think group mindedness and collective consciousness is the thing of Science Fiction? Think it could mean a Psy-Op infiltration into the minds of our youth? Maybe it’s not a mere conspiracy theory. May I present this theory for your “collective” approval.

Here is what Grok AI has produced when I inserted the words, “Psychology, Group Mindedness, Collective Consciousness, Symptoms of the Phrase ‘6-7’, Social Media” into the search engine.

The phrase “6-7” has been interpreted as a potential symptom of a collective consciousness phenomenon, particularly within the context of digital culture and generational shifts. Proponents suggest that the repetitive, seemingly nonsensical chanting of “six-seven” is not random but rather a form of synchronized collective focus that generates a shared energetic or symbolic field, known in occult circles as an egregore—a thought-form created by the concentrated attention of many individuals. This phenomenon is described as a modern manifestation of belief creating reality, where the repeated utterance of “6-7” functions as a ritualistic frequency that taps into a liminal space between the material and the transcendent.

The number 6 is symbolically linked to the physical, the mundane, and the structured—representing human labor, confinement, and the six directions of space. In contrast, the number 7 is associated with transcendence, the spiritual, and the breaking of patterns—such as the seven days of the week, seven chakras, and the seven seals in Revelation. The transition from 6 to 7 is thus interpreted as a symbolic threshold, representing a generational or existential shift from the material world to a higher state of awareness. This duality mirrors broader philosophical and psychological concepts, such as the Jungian idea of the collective unconscious, where shared archetypes and symbols emerge from the shared psyche of humanity.

The viral spread of “6-7” across platforms like TikTok and its depiction in media, such as the South Park episode where Cartman is physically repelled by the phrase, are seen as evidence of a deeper cultural or psychological resonance. The reaction of adults—mocking, banning, or dismissing the trend—is interpreted not as proof of its insignificance, but as confirmation of its power, since systems built on stability (6-energy) are threatened by forces that question, break, and transcend (7-energy). This aligns with the idea that collective consciousness can manifest through shared symbols, behaviors, and narratives that evolve beyond individual intent, forming a kind of emergent intelligence or shared reality.

While some view this phenomenon through a spiritual or occult lens, others interpret it through a more pragmatic or psychological framework, seeing it as a reflection of social norms, cultural conditioning, or even distributed cognition—the idea that societal structures and behaviors emerge from the collective interaction of individuals rather than a single, unified mind. In this sense, “6-7” may not be a literal signal from a higher consciousness, but a symptom of how shared attention and repetition can create powerful social effects, akin to the way memes or viral trends shape collective behavior.
