Then why isn't it called Judea?

Does it have to be called Judea to be a Jewish state? I didn't know that.

Maybe Canada should change its name to the Vatican.

The whole reason why Israel was founded was to be a homeland for Jewish people. It was founded as Jewish state.

Israel never was a Jewish State in history, only Judea which was crushed after Israel converted to Christianity.

When you get down to the brass tacks, Israel should be Christian.

There are more Catholics in Canada than people of any other religion.

And I can't see how you can't make a distinction between Catholicism and Protestantism. The two are quite different.




It's always been a Jewish state since the day it was founded.
When one focuses on difference one gets difference - and IRA and the Muddled East and Indian troubles and... England might even still have her empire if she'd had more wisdom than "different"

That doesnt make Canada a Catholic state. Our head of state is also the head of the Church of England, our head of government is also not a Catholic.

But the hidden sense of the name Abraham or Abram has escaped notice, and it is of great moment, as are all Bible names. Scholars may protest, but it seems obvious that the word is simply A-Brahm, (Hindu), meaning "non-Brahm." Abraham, the Patriarch or oldest of the aeons or emanations, was not Brahm, the Absolute, but the first emanation from Brahm; the first ray, the first God, perhaps equivalent to Ishwara of the Hindus. He was the first life that was not Absolute, yet from the Absolute. He was to go forth into the realms of matter, divide and multiply, and fill the world with his fragmented units. To return to Abraham’s bosom would be just to complete the cycle of outgoing and return, to rest in the bosom of the highest divinity close to the Absolute. Also he came out of Ur, of the Chaldees (or Kasadim), which is another key word, since Ur is the Chaldean word for "fire," the celestial empyrean, out of which all souls, as fiery sparks, are emanated. Kasadim, or Kasdim, was a term given to the highest celestial spirits, who fathered the production of the divine sparks of soul. It is practically equivalent to "Archangels."
Then Abraham went straight to Egypt from the land of Canaan, and his descendants were to suffer bondage in that lower country. It is a crushing blow to the historical rendering of Bible narrative to declare, on evidence that is incontrovertible, that the "Egypt" of the scriptures is not the country on the map. It is the term used in the allegories to designate the plane, state or "land" of embodied life, life on earth. "Egypt" is just this earth, or the state or locale of bodily life on it.
