Yahweh’s allocutions:

"This is I, the creator of all the
ungovernable, ruthless forces of Nature.

I am an amoral force of Nature, a purely phenomenal
personality that cannot see its own back."

This could be a moral satisfaction for Job,

because through this declaration man, in spite of his impotence, is
set up as a judge over God himself.

We do not know whether Job realizes

the fact that a kind of Moira or Dike rules over Yahweh,

causing him to give himself away so blatantly.

One can submit to such a God only with fear and trembling, and can
try indirectly to propitiate the despot with unctuous praises and
ostentatious obedience.

But a relationship of trust seems completely out of
the question to our modern way of thinking.

Nor can moral satisfaction be
expected from an unconscious nature god of this kind.

This symbolism explains

Yahweh’s behaviour, which, from the human point of view, is so intolerable:

it is the behaviour of an unconscious being who cannot be judged morally.

Yahweh is a phenomenon and, as Job says,
“not a man".

Of the four animals of Yahweh

only one has a human face.

That is probably Satan, the godfather of man as a spiritual being.

Ezekiel’s vision attributes
three-fourths animal nature and only one-fourth human nature to

the animal deity, while the upper deity, the one above the “sapphire throne,”

merely had the “likeness” of a man.

But, to his horror, he has
discovered that Yahweh is not human but, in certain respects, less than
human, that he is just what Yahweh himself says of Leviathan (the
crocodile):
He beholds everything that is high:
He is king over all proud beasts.

Unconsciousness has an animal nature. Like all old gods Yahweh has
his animal symbolism

with its unmistakable borrowings from the much
older theriomorphic gods of Egypt, especially Horus and his four sons.

Formerly he was naïve, dreaming
perhaps of a “good” God, or of a benevolent ruler and just judge.

He had imagined that a “covenant” was a legal matter and that anyone who was
party to a contract could insist on his rights as agreed;

that God would be
faithful and true or at least just, and, as one could assume from the Ten Commandments, would have some recognition of ethical values or at least
feel committed to his own legal standpoint.

Murder and
manslaughter are mere bagatelles, and if the mood takes him

he can play
the feudal grand seigneur and generously recompense his bondslave for the

havoc wrought in his wheat-fields.

“So you have lost your sons and
daughters? No harm done, I will give you new and better ones."

Before, Job had known Yahweh “by the hearing of the ear"

but now he has got a taste of his reality, more so even than David—an incisive
lesson that had better not be forgotten.

Jung has some eerily relevant comments in his answer to Job, considering that we're now facing theMAGAGOD.

"Yahweh can do all things and permits himself all things without
batting an eyelid. With brazen countenance he can project his shadow side

and remain unconscious at man’s expense. He can boast of his superior

power and enact laws which mean less than air to him.

AI for farmers.

"After this training period, the researchers made a discovery: if they presented the algorithm with a single image of a crop in the early phases of its growth, it could use this as a foundation to generate artificial images, which predicted how the crop would look at different stages of growth.

These images were strikingly accurate, closely comparing to real images of those crops in the field, says Lukas Drees, a lead author on the new research."

Buddhist logic break from 🤯

meditation:
the totality of causes and conditions of every event, necessarily followed by that event.

because the totality is present,
nothing else is needed

the totality IS the event itself.

just so
everything is evanescent by its nature

no other cause of annihilation or change required.

reality as evanescence.
