When they return, we have recorded what Mark refers to as the &#8220;first recorded VOTE in history,&#8221; which two fellows named Joshua and Caleb are said to have lost. But the truth is that all who thought the &#8216;vote&#8217; mattered were the real losers, and ultimately their &#8220;carcasses fell in the wilderness.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.waytozion.org\/teachings\/mark_call\/2019\/ssm-CooH-6-29-19-Shelach-Lekha.mp3\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>SSM &#8220;Shalach Lekha&#8221;

Him, and includes a deeper look as well into the latter part of the parsha, including chapter 15, which Mark suggests might be titled, &#8220;Requiem for the Whore Church,&#8221; because it encapsulates in brief SO much of what the &#8220;Israel&#8221; that was later exiled (again, sent out or &#8220;shalach&#8221;-ed) for cause says is &#8220;done away with,&#8221; while He clearly says otherwise.<\/p>\n<p>And notably today, we have our own version of evil men who not only bring a &#8220;bad report&#8221; of the Creator, but destroy literally every element of the things He said to keep, remember, and DO, &#8220;throughout your generations.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The people of Berea were once praised for their willingness to &#8220;search out&#8221; a matter, and &#8220;see if these things are true.&#8221; Today, people &#8220;google&#8221; them instead, and one of the many lessons of this portion might be that the word has become a verb whose real meaning amounts now to &#8220;deliberately rebel&#8221;
