Once Upon A Time In Giv'on

י"ח סיון התשס"ח
Alban Heruin 19

In follow-up to today's earlier Sabbat/Shabbat entries (Death Of Distortion, The Day The Sun Stood Still and HaMiklat, The Staff & The Star), I sit here listening to the mystically magical music of my CD The Light Of Midnight and ponder the mystery of Giv'on.

Once upon a time in Giv'on (I Kings 3:5-10):

In Gibeon יהוה appeared to Solomon in a dream by night; and אלהים said: 'Ask what I shall give thee.'

Solomon's reply concludes with his request:

Give Thy servant therefore an understanding heart to judge Thy people, that I may discern between good and evil; for who is able to judge this Thy great people?'

Solomon stopped short of the full prize with his request. To discern between good and evil is not enough, when within the heart of darkness is a magnificent light waiting to be redeemed. Toward recovering that pristine brilliance pulsing within the soul of Holy Darkness, Walking On Fire aspires.
