👏👏👏 Recently, I’ve been thinking a lot about the importance of *who* interpreted the texts we now know as the Bible…just as it’s important to understand * who* conducts/analyses research and what their biases may be. Interestingly enough, in traditional Chinese medicine, kidneys hold fear. With that in context, the Hebrew translation makes a little more sense!! The peace of god guarding your fear. Thanks for a beautiful piece as always! ✨

YEEEESSS. It's so important to understand whose biases, agendas, preferences, etc are present in the texts we see today. And woah, this piece about the kidneys! That is amazing. The peace of God guards your fear. You are held and loved in all your wonderful, fearful, squeamish humanity. That is so, so good. 💛
