Who hasn't heard smiling leaders saying that "Miriam danced," or others trying to justify some inappropriate exhibitionism by appealing to "David's ephod"?
When we begin to take the Scriptures seriously and dedicate ourselves to their study and understanding, we end up seeing details that are normally taken out of context and used as a pretext for introducing absolutely unnecessary\u2014if not condemnable\u2014practices into the event called "worship," which should be rationally offered to the Lord God\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n

The fact that the Bible is also a historical book may prevent many from understanding the necessary distinction between events strictly related to worship\u2014that is, things that occurred within the New Testament tabernacle\/temple\/congregation\u2014and accounts of daily life, customs, and traditions in Israel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

PLACE OF WORSHIP<\/span><\/mark><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

Since July 2005, I have been waiting for someone to show me a passage that recounts anyone dancing or clapping inside the Tabernacle, the Temple, or the New Testament congregation (hereinafter referred to simply as the congregation).
Miriam did dance, but in front of the Red Sea! Just look:<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

Then Miriam the prophetess, Aaron's sister, took a tambourine in her hand,<\/span>
And all the women followed her with tambourines and dancing.<\/span>
And Miriam answered them:<\/span>
Sing to the Lord, for he has triumphed gloriously;<\/span>
and threw the horse and its rider into the sea.<\/span><\/p>\n(Exodus 15:20-21 \u2013 ACF)<\/strong><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

That was a long way from the Tabernacle, which, incidentally, didn't even exist!
In other words, the fact that Miriam and all the women danced was related to the unique joy of the entire people having been blessed with a miracle from God: an absolutely personal and non-transferable experience!
In the study published by H\u00e9lio de Menezes Silva<\/a> It is explained that the Hebrew term for what Miriam did is \u201cch\u00eeyl<\/em>\u201d, which means \u201cdancing in a circular circle\u201d: no technical steps, no ballet movements, jazz, animism\u2026 rehearsals, leaders and \u2014 a \u201csmall\u201d detail that is extremely important, but absurdly and systematically ignored \u2014 NO MEN!!!
Moreover, the favorite passage that the boisterous dancers like to distort to justify their "ministry" is the one where David dances and plays before the ark:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

So it happened that David and the elders of Israel and the captains of thousands went with joy to bring up the ark of the covenant of the LORD from the house of Obed-Edom.<\/span>
And it came to pass, when God helped the Levites who carried the ark of the covenant of the LORD, that they sacrificed seven bulls and seven rams.<\/span>
David was wearing a robe of fine linen, as were all the Levites who carried the ark, and the singers, and Chenaniah, the master of the singers;<\/span>
David also wore a linen ephod.,<\/span>
And all Israel brought up the ark of the covenant of the LORD with shouting, and with the sound of trumpets, and with cymbals, making a loud noise with lutes and harps.<\/span>
And it came to pass, when the ark of the covenant of the LORD came into the city of David, that Michal the daughter of Saul looked out at a window, and saw David dancing and playing; and she despised him in her heart.<\/span><\/p>\n(1\u02e2\u1d57 Chronicles 15:25-29 \u2013 ACF)<\/strong><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

First and foremost, we need to emphasize that the ark was UNIQUE and its current whereabouts are unknown.
Next, note that the Hebrew term for David's action is "\u201cr\u00e2qad<\/em>\u201d, which means \u201cto take great leaps; burst with joy.\u201d.
And finally, a brief reflection allows us to conclude that... the ark was neither the place of worship itself nor was it inside the Temple!!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On one occasion, back when I was participating in debates on online platforms, I had the displeasure of encountering a "leader of prophetic worship<\/a>\u201d"saying that David would be wearing only his underwear in that episode!"<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
\n

The fact that David and the Levites were dressed in fine linen robes in no way means that they were only wearing underwear or transparent robes; quite the contrary: does a functionally illiterate person like that\u2014who insists on flaunting the title of "leader"!\u2014not know that the term "fine" can refer to both thickness and quality?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

I don't want to imagine what "\u00e9fode" means in that creature's mind, and I'm afraid of how they might dress if invited to an event where the dress code is "smart casual"... and I keep wondering what's being taught in the seminars, because it's certainly not Portuguese, let alone Greek, and even less Hebrew!
This is a perfect example of the catastrophe that... functional illiteracy<\/a> has brought about the gospel.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Most references to dancing in the Bible apply to worshippers of other \u201cgods,\u201d but I did find a reference to someone jumping into the Temple: in Acts 3<\/span><\/strong>: a man \u2014 lame from birth \u2014 who was healed and, therefore, entered the temple \u201cwalking, leaping, and praising God\u201d (verse 8<\/span><\/strong>)!
But this does not disprove any of my previous statements: her leaps testified to the miraculous healing she received\u2026 there is no subsequent mention of other leaps or jumps within the temple, therefore this occurrence was recorded as an exception to the rule.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In relation to dance, the Hebrew term relating to the passages of Psalm 149:3<\/span><\/strong> e Psalm 150:4<\/span><\/strong> it is\u201cmale<\/em>\u201d, whose meaning I transcribe below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u2026derives from a root that simply means \u201cturn\u201d and can mean to spin happily on a wheel.
The classic and excellent Revised and Corrected Edition of the Bible acknowledges that, depending on the context, male<\/em> It can also be a flute that plays in circles;
Clement of Alexandria\u2014who, in 190 AD, was a far better Hebraist than anyone since the Middle Ages\u2014translates the word in Psalm 150:4 as \u201cchoral-echo,\u201d that is, \u201cchoir that responds in echo\u201d (see \u201cThe Instructor, Fathers of the Church,\u201d p. 130).<\/span><\/p>\nH\u00e9lio de Menezes Silva<\/a><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

WITH OR WITHOUT IT'S FUCKED<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

After careful research, I can affirm that the existence of dance teams or "ministries" is nothing more than pure nonsense to fill church organizations: if dancing appeals to young people, so does eating chocolate!
Neither is a sin, but it makes absolutely no sense to create a "ministry of chocolate eaters"!
Dance has no power whatsoever, and its overestimated "expressiveness" ends up introducing movements into religious practices\u2014which should be rational\u2014that are only comparable to the dances of African, shamanistic, etc., rituals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We can safely conclude that, throughout the entire Scriptures, THERE WAS NEVER ANY DANCING INSIDE PLACES OF WORSHIP!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If dance is your best offering to God,

Quem nunca ouviu sorridentes l\u00edderes falando que “Miri\u00e3 dan\u00e7ou” ou outros, tentando justificar algum exibicionismo impr\u00f3prio, apelando para o “\u00e9fode de Davi”?Quando come\u00e7amos a levar as Escrituras a s\u00e9rio e nos dedicamos ao estudo e compreens\u00e3o, acabamos conseguindo ver detalhes que normalmente s\u00e3o tirados de seu contexto para ser transformados em pretexto para a introdu\u00e7\u00e3o de pr\u00e1ticas absolutamente desnecess\u00e1rias \u2014 sen\u00e3o conden\u00e1veis \u2014 no evento que chamado de “culto”, que deveria ser racionalmente oferecido ao Senhor Deus\u2026 O fato de a B\u00edblia tamb\u00e9m ser um livro hist\u00f3rico pode impedir que muitos consigam compreender a separa\u00e7\u00e3o que deve ser feita entre fatos estritamente relacionados ao culto \u2014 ou seja, coisas que ocorreram dentro do tabern\u00e1culo \/ templo \/ congrega\u00e7\u00e3o neotestament\u00e1ria \u2014 e os relatos do cotidiano, usos e costumes de Israel. DAN\u00c7ANDO\u2026 NO TEMPLO? Desde julho de 2005 estou esperando que me apresentem alguma passagem relatando que algu\u00e9m dan\u00e7ou ou bateu palmas dentro do Tabern\u00e1culo, do Templo ou da Congrega\u00e7\u00e3o neotestament\u00e1ria (doravante apenas congrega\u00e7\u00e3o).Miri\u00e3 dan\u00e7ou sim, mas diante do Mar Vermelho! Basta ver: Ent\u00e3o Miri\u00e3, a profetisa, a irm\u00e3 de Ar\u00e3o, tomou o tamboril na sua m\u00e3o,e todas as mulheres sa\u00edram atr\u00e1s dela com tamboris e com dan\u00e7as.E Miri\u00e3 lhes respondia:Cantai ao SENHOR, porque gloriosamente triunfou;e lan\u00e7ou no mar o cavalo com o seu cavaleiro. (\u00caxodo 15:20-21 – ACF) Isso foi bem longe do Tabern\u00e1culo que, por sinal, sequer existia!Ou seja, o fato de Miri\u00e3 e todas as mulheres terem dan\u00e7ado foi algo relacionado \u00e0 alegria \u00fanica de todo o povo ter sido aben\u00e7oado com um milagre de Deus: uma experi\u00eancia absolutamente pessoal e intransfer\u00edvel!No estudo publicado por H\u00e9lio de Menezes Silva est\u00e1 explicado que o termo hebraico para o que Miri\u00e3 fez \u00e9 \u201cch\u00eeyl\u201d, que significa \u201cdan\u00e7ar em roda circulante\u201d: nada de passos t\u00e9cnicos, nada de movimentos de bal\u00e9, jazz, animismo\u2026 ensaios, l\u00edderes e \u2014 um “pequeno” detalhe important\u00edssimo, mas absurda e sistematicamente ignorado \u2014 NADA DE HOMENS!!!Ali\u00e1s, a passagem preferida que os saltitantes dan\u00e7arinos gostam de desvirtuar para justificar seu \u201cminist\u00e9rio\u201d \u00e9 aquela onde Davi dan\u00e7a e toca diante da arca: Sucedeu, pois, que Davi e os anci\u00e3os de Israel, e os capit\u00e3es dos milhares, foram, com alegria, para fazer subir a arca da alian\u00e7a do SENHOR, da casa de Obede-Edom.E sucedeu que, ajudando Deus os levitas que levavam a arca da alian\u00e7a do SENHOR, sacrificaram sete novilhos e sete carneiros.E Davi ia vestido de um manto de linho fino, como tamb\u00e9m todos os levitas que levavam a arca, e os cantores, e Quenanias, mestre dos cantores;tamb\u00e9m Davi levava sobre si um \u00e9fode de linho,E todo o Israel fez subir a arca da alian\u00e7a do SENHOR, com j\u00fabilo, e ao som de buzinas, e de trombetas, e de c\u00edmbalos, fazendo ressoar ala\u00fades e harpas.E sucedeu que, chegando a arca da alian\u00e7a do SENHOR \u00e0 cidade de Davi, Mical, a filha de Saul, olhou de uma janela, e, vendo a Davi dan\u00e7ar e tocar, o desprezou no seu cora\u00e7\u00e3o. (1\u00ba Cr\u00f4nicas 15:25-29 – ACF) Precisamos, em primeiro lugar, destacar que a arca era \u00daNICA e seu paradeiro atualmente \u00e9 desconhecido.Em seguida, observar que o termo hebraico para a a\u00e7\u00e3o de Davi \u00e9 \u201cr\u00e2qad\u201d, que significa \u201cdar grandes saltos; pinotear de alegria\u201d.E, por fim, realizar uma breve reflex\u00e3o que nos permite concluir que\u2026 a arca n\u00e3o era o pr\u00f3prio local de culto nem estava dentro do Templo!!! Certa ocasi\u00e3o, na \u00e9poca em que me prestava a debater pelas comunidades virtuais, tive o desprazer de encontrar um “l\u00edder de adora\u00e7\u00e3o prof\u00e9tica” dizendo que Davi estaria como que s\u00f3 de cueca nesse epis\u00f3dio! O fato de Davi e os levitas estarem vestidos com um manto de linho fino de forma alguma significa que eles estavam s\u00f3 de cuecas ou com mantos transparentes, muito pelo contr\u00e1rio: ser\u00e1 que um analfabeto funcional como esse \u2014 que faz absoluta quest\u00e3o de ostentar um t\u00edtulo de “l\u00edder”! \u2014 desconhece que o termo \u201cfino\u201d tanto pode fazer refer\u00eancia \u00e0 espessura quanto \u00e0 qualidade? N\u00e3o quero imaginar o que seja “\u00e9fode” na mente dessa criatura e fico com medo de como possa se vestir ao ser convidado para um evento onde o traje seja “esporte fino”\u2026 e fico me questionando o que est\u00e1 sendo ensinado nos semin\u00e1rios, porque certamente n\u00e3o \u00e9 o Portugu\u00eas, quanto mais Grego e muito menos Hebraico!Esse \u00e9 um perfeito exemplo da cat\u00e1strofe que o analfabetismo funcional tem trazido sobre o evangelho. A maioria das cita\u00e7\u00f5es de dan\u00e7a na B\u00edblia se aplica aos adoradores de outros \u201cdeuses\u201d, mas acabei encontrando uma refer\u00eancia de algu\u00e9m que entrou pulando no Templo: em Atos 3: um homem \u2014 coxo de nascen\u00e7a \u2014 que foi curado e, por isso, entrou no templo \u201candando, saltando e louvando a Deus\u201d (verso 8)!Mas isso n\u00e3o desmente nenhuma de minhas afirma\u00e7\u00f5es anteriores: seus saltos testificavam a cura milagrosa recebida\u2026 n\u00e3o h\u00e1 cita\u00e7\u00e3o posterior de outros saltos ou pulos dentro do templo, logo tal ocorr\u00eancia foi registrada por ser s\u00e3o exce\u00e7\u00e3o \u00e0 regra. Em rela\u00e7\u00e3o \u00e0 dan\u00e7a, o termo hebraico relativo \u00e0s passagens de Salmo 149:3 e Salmo 150:4 \u00e9 \u201cm\u00e2chowl\u201d, cujo significado transcrevo abaixo: \u2026deriva de uma raiz que significa simplesmente “volta” e pode significar girar alegremente numa roda.A cl\u00e1ssica e excelente Edi\u00e7\u00e3o Revista e Corrigida, da B\u00edblia, admite que, dependendo do contexto, m\u00e2chowl tamb\u00e9m pode ser flauta que toque em volteios;Clemente de Alexandria \u2014 que, no ano 190AD, era muito melhor hebra\u00edsta que ningu\u00e9m a partir da Idade M\u00e9dia \u2014 traduz a palavra em Salmo 150:4 como “coral-eco”, isto \u00e9, “coro que responde em eco” (ver “The instructor, Fathers of the Church”, pg. 130). H\u00e9lio de Menezes Silva COM OU SEM \u00c9FODE Ap\u00f3s cuidadosa pesquisa, posso afirmar que a exist\u00eancia de equipes ou \u201cminist\u00e9rios\u201d de dan\u00e7a n\u00e3o passa da mais pura balela para lotar empresas eclesi\u00e1sticas: se a dan\u00e7a agrada aos jovens, comer chocolate tamb\u00e9m!Ambos n\u00e3o s\u00e3o pecados, mas n\u00e3o faz sentido algum criar um \u201cminist\u00e9rio de comedores de chocolate\u201d!A dan\u00e7a n\u00e3o tem poder algum e sua superestimada \u201cexpressividade\u201d acaba introduzindo nos cultos \u2014 que deveriam ser racionais \u2014 movimentos apenas compar\u00e1veis \u00e0s dan\u00e7as<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":6881,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_uag_custom_page_level_css":"","_kad_blocks_custom_css":"","_kad_blocks_head_custom_js":"","_kad_blocks_body_custom_js":"","_kad_blocks_footer_custom_js":"","iawp_total_views":10,"footnotes":""},"categories":[464],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-5521","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-apologetica"],"taxonomy_info":{"category":[{"value":464,"label":"Apolog\u00e9tica"}]},"featured_image_src_large":["https:\/\/piorevangelho.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/efode-1-1024x576.jpg",800,450,true],"author_info":{"display_name":"Te\u00f3philo Noturno","author_link":"https:\/\/piorevangelho.online\/en\/author\/teophilo\/"},"comment_info":6,"category_info":[{"term_id":464,"name":"Apolog\u00e9tica","slug":"apologetica","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":464,"taxonomy":"category","description":"","parent":0,"count":96,"filter":"raw","cat_ID":464,"category_count":96,"category_description":"","cat_name":"Apolog\u00e9tica","category_nicename":"apologetica","category_parent":0}],"tag_info":false,"uagb_featured_image_src":{"full":["https:\/\/piorevangelho.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/efode-1.jpg",1920,1080,false],"thumbnail":["https:\/\/piorevangelho.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/efode-1-150x150.jpg",150,150,true],"medium":["https:\/\/piorevangelho.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/efode-1-300x169.jpg",300,169,true],"medium_large":["https:\/\/piorevangelho.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/efode-1-768x432.jpg",768,432,true],"large":["https:\/\/piorevangelho.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/efode-1-1024x576.jpg",800,450,true],"1536x1536":["https:\/\/piorevangelho.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/efode-1-1536x864.jpg",1536,864,true],"2048x2048":["https:\/\/piorevangelho.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/efode-1.jpg",1920,1080,false],"trp-custom-language-flag":["https:\/\/piorevangelho.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/efode-1.jpg",18,10,false],"mailpoet_newsletter_max":["https:\/\/piorevangelho.online\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/efode-1.jpg",1320,743,false]},"uagb_author_info":{"display_name":"Te\u00f3philo Noturno","author_link":"https:\/\/piorevangelho.online\/en\/author\/teophilo\/"},"uagb_comment_info":6,"uagb_excerpt":"Quem nunca ouviu sorridentes l\u00edderes falando que “Miri\u00e3 dan\u00e7ou” ou outros, tentando justificar algum exibicionismo impr\u00f3prio, apelando para o “\u00e9fode de Davi”?Quando come\u00e7amos a levar as Escrituras a s\u00e9rio e nos dedicamos ao estudo e compreens\u00e3o, acabamos conseguindo ver detalhes que normalmente s\u00e3o tirados de seu contexto para ser transformados em pretexto para a introdu\u00e7\u00e3o…","acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/piorevangelho.online\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5521","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/piorevangelho.online\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/piorevangelho.online\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/piorevangelho.online\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/piorevangelho.online\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5521"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/piorevangelho.online\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5521\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/piorevangelho.online\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/6881"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/piorevangelho.online\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5521"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/piorevangelho.online\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5521"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/piorevangelho.online\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5521"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
