1. Question: Were the Ten Comandments given to the children of Isreal for religious purposes or practical purposes?
My Thoughts: IMHO, I feel that the comandments were given to ensure that the covenant between Abraham and God was fulfilled concerning increasing his house and were more practical in nature than religious.
Example: "Thou Shalt not Kill", if obeyed, will cause a population to grow.
Side note: There is a measurable population growth in the houses of the children Isreal in the book of numbers. Is this because of the practical measure of not killing each other or is it religious in nature?
Any thoughts?
2. Question: Do Angels really have wings?
My thoughts: IMHO, I feel that it is highly questionable that angels have wings. In reading the bible, so far, I have not come across any good description of the physical traits of an angel. Most of the time they are not described physically but only described as doing "something".
Example: Genesis 28:12 He had a dream in which he saw a stairway resting on the earth, with its top reaching to heaven, and theangels of God were ascending and descending on it.
Side note: Why would Angels need a ladder if they had wings? Is my avatar an angel or a Nephilim?
Any Thoughts?
