Why is the devil intelligent?

[MMS]

Hmmm a fetus and the umbilical cord. Is that what the visual in the Matrix was supposed to represent? Plugged in to a bigger machine and accepting a reality or belief system that keeps us satisfied?

not to dissimilar from fruit on a vine

it grows, falls off, is eventually eaten, and leaves a seed behind to do it again. The matrix is a veneer for a bigger pattern at work. The theme of rebellion is shallow in comparison to what is actually transpiring

but in the egyptian thought of Ra and Apep (Creative speech, and the patterns that carry the speech) its a much different thought that is far more grandiose than the matrix. So creative speech is like a child that is nourished by the patterns that are entranced by the speech but are simultaneously at odds with it too. So the patterns become like a mother to the creative speech and carry it as long as it soothes its mother.

that said you need to delve into deeper concepts of Egypt like Nun to truly consider it.

@Marks @010101 a thought experiment...in this post. Which throne is the pharaoh sitting on? the one of gold or the one of gold? or the one of clay?

If he's so intelligent why did he go against the most powerful being in existence for clout?

The devil is just a poor man's Dillon Brooks with subterranean real estate.

Nimrod - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org

Now it was Nimrod who excited them to such an affront and contempt of God. He was the grandson of Ham, the son of Noah, a bold man, and of great strength of hand. He persuaded them not to ascribe it to God, as if it were through his means they were happy, but to believe that it was their own courage which procured that happiness. He also gradually changed the government into tyranny, seeing no other way of turning men from the fear of God, but to bring them into a constant dependence on his power. He also said he would be revenged on God, if he should have a mind to drown the world again; for that he would build a tower too high for the waters to reach. And that he would avenge himself on God for destroying their forefathers. Now the multitude were very ready to follow the determination of Nimrod, and to esteem it a piece of cowardice to submit to God; and they built a tower, neither sparing any pains, nor being in any degree negligent about the work: and, by reason of the multitude of hands employed in it, it grew very high, sooner than any one could expect; but the thickness of it was so great, and it was so strongly built, that thereby its great height seemed, upon the view, to be less than it really was. It was built of burnt brick, cemented together with mortar, made of bitumen, that it might not be liable to admit water. When God saw that they acted so madly, he did not resolve to destroy them utterly, since they were not grown wiser by the destruction of the former sinners; but he caused a tumult among them, by producing in them diverse languages, and causing that, through the multitude of those languages, they should not be able to understand one another. The place wherein they built the tower is now called Babylon, because of the confusion of that language which they readily understood before; for the Hebrews mean by the word Babel, confusion ...

[Koichos]

well

in the first page, it says: I have given you every herb, which has the seed therein which produces a tree. To you it shall be for meat

Yet God doesn't define what "meat" is. Just that it will be meat for you.

There is no word for 'meat' (בָּשָׂר basar) in verse 29; the word there is לְאָכְלָה l'ōchlah ('for food'), which is used synonymously throughout the Bible with the more common Hebrew word אֹֽכֶל ōchel (meaning 'food').

Then on the second page, he insinuates two trees one of life and one of knowledge, meaning they must exist either in the first or second pages (likely second)

then on the third page, "the serpent" or Nahash tells Eve to eat of the tree saying that you will be "Like God" (Kelohim) which is only used elsewhere in the bible by David.

By eating the 'fruit' the adam and his woman had gained the ability to distinguish right from wrong, like God, which is why they immediately made temporary clothes for themselves from the leaves of the tree whose fruit they had eaten. I fear you are looking far too deeply into this matter and losing sight of the wood for the trees!

Now, I have said before that my perspective was that "mimmenu" was the tree that should not be eaten. It is also mentioned by Tzipporah interestingly when Pharoah is seeking to slay Moses at the Inn

Exodus 4:26 Hebrew Text Analysis

biblehub.com

if Genesis creates, then from Genesis 3 onwards can be taken to be the tree that Adam was not meant to eat

מִמֶּֽנּוּ mimennu is a preposition meaning 'from it'; the word for 'tree' (עֵץ 'eitz) is a common noun.

 

[Mensch Fontana]

In all religious books he's smart and cunning

Why didn't God make him retarded? No offense

Because he's God too

 

[Mindfield333]

Your ego is the devil

 

[NYChase718]

He aint that smart
Humans have guidelines and a path and were told instructions , easy formula of what to do
Devil throws out that option and choice and people cant help but accept that before good

God: dont take the apple
Human rebels and takes the apple

Why make threads about Satan opposed to a thread about God?

If you understand God then you’ll understand Satan

 

[MrLogic]

Well

Abraham's "God" does all that stuff

there Satan just on the pay roll and can be anyone just means adversary

Isaiah 45:7
I form the light and create darkness, I bring prosperity and create disaster; I, the LORD, do all these things



only bible thumping murcian christian think they need a bogey man to stroke there own ego not realizing there God does it all main reason if you take the bible face value Jesus had to die because God knows low key making man is and was his fault.




How are you all knowing but make things that don't do what you tell them and you know that but still make them...

and then you have to prove a point to a devil about job like you got to answer to things you created.....


Pharaoh was going to let your peeps go but you harden is heart to not let them go






but church folk got you hypnotic with there lame worship music got folk all emo over that shyt.

yet no power at all only reason they doing what they are doing in the political world they have no supernatural authority over no one and they know it.

We as black people still waiting on same sky God to save us from them.

from the same folk who used the bible to justify slavery

"Christians" specifically the white ones are the devil they claim to be against and they show it everyday as the old guard "boomers" get older and older.
