Long story short: Haman is a descendant of one of the Nephilim clans that were mostly destroyed by Israel. The Lord of Spirits podcast episode on giants is a deep dive into this stuff but it’s a 3 hour episode.
This would be the episode. There’s also a transcript available: Land of Giants
Lol, I’m going to need some explanation on almost all of this.
That looks delicious
Are you taking a “shine” to it?
fyi: in the UK bird is a cockney word used in place of womanThe last two thirds of that must be in cockney because I can't make heads or tails of it haha
There's nothing wrong with her natural face. By the way, how the heck did Jacob not know that it was Leah there and not Rachel. Was it completely dark.This must be something like the trauma Jacob went through when he woke up to find LeahView attachment 4745
She was wearing a veil.
But it is entirely different. The made-up version looks half the age, and a different race. If you fell in love with one face you'd hardly be expected to feel the same about the other, and vice-versa, as they just look like two completely different women. And she might have lied about her age as part of this. I can understand his position.
She was veiled as Sarah said, and it was dark in the tent - and he was probably drunk. This is the only recorded instance I know of a Hebrew wedding feast happening before the marriage was consummated - usually consummation occurred first, and then it was celebrated by a week-long feast afterwards. I suspect Laban started the feast early in order to get Jacob drunk enough to not notice the switch until he sobered up.
I buy the he was drunk argument. Because I am sure they did not have the same exact figures. He should have been able to figure it out otherwise.
I don't think he could have figured it out that way. What he had to go on in a dark tent was only the feel of the figure, and as he wouldn't have had a chance to fondle either figure previously, he would have taken what he discovered to be the feel of the figure he was expecting.
