If I were the Devil by
Paul Harvey
In 1965 Paul Harvey predicted the
whole Story Line of attacks beginning with
God, The Bible and the Church. Many
"bible" based churches began the attack
and claimed to be informed by a
"spirit." Apollyon leader of the
Locusts or His Musical Worship team is
well-pointed to the year 2000. This fits
the time-line of Moses who began the
destruction of freedom and the
collectivized City States such as
Babylon. The Temple in Jerusalem is
defined as a ziggurat because God
abandoned Israel to "worship the starry
host."
TLhomas Olbricht c. 1965 An Aristotelian
Rhetorical Analysis of 1
Thessalonians,"
Olbricht is of Author and
Quoted by numerous writers trying to
prove that Paul used RHETORIC to
influence His readers. That proves that
Theologians have the "right" to find
PATTERNS beyond the Biblical and Paul's
giving us the roles of READ or SPEAK.
Maybe it was Paul who used God's
Pattern. In General, rhetoric is
seen in many of the resources as a way
to deceive an audience. Rhetoric,
Hermeneutics and Homilectic are
foundational skills used by
once-Christian colleges who also reject
Scripture for today's culture. By
definition, Aristotle proves that men
who deny God's Commands, Examples and
Inferences (for eager students) need
rhetoric only when they deny that God
has His own WILL.
It is popular to say that even Jesus
used Greek Rhetoric. Scripture
says that God put His WORDS into the
MOUTH of Jesus. Therefore, God was
helpless. Leonard Allen says that THE
Holy Spirit God was required to make the
Father-Son INTELLIGIBLE. God and
all of Scripture limits human input as
Silent Students who listen and do not
ASSIST God.
Aristotle
like all of the Classics and early
Church Scholars repudiate the PRACTICES
which are imposed and which sowed
massive discord most beginning at
Highland Church and ACU. The
Theologians who reject FACTS somehow
debunk what Scripture clearly teaches as
a way to attach the "babes."
Jesus said that God hides from
the Wise or
Sophists--rhetoricians, singers,
instrument players--and reveals Himself
only to babes or those enlisted in the
School of Christ only after baptism
gifts A holy spirit or A good
conscience.
Col. 1:9
For this cause we also, since the day we
heard it,
do not cease to pray
for you,
and to desire that ye
might be filled with the KNOWLEDGE

more certain.
UNLESS GOD HAS DONE A
ROTTEN JOB ARISTOTLE SAYS
Aristot. Rh. 1354a
The result would
be that, if all trials were now
carried on as they are in some States,
especially those that are well
administered, there would be nothing
left for the rhetorician to say.
[5] For
all men either think that all the laws
ought so to prescribe,
or in fact carry out the principle
and forbid speaking outside the
subject,
as in the court of Areopagus, and
in this they are right.
For it is wrong to warp the dicast's
feelings, to arouse him to
anger, jealousy or compassion,
which would be like making the
rule crooked which one intended to
use. [6]
Further, it is evident that the only
business of the litigant is to prove
that the FACT in question is
or is not so, that it has happened or
not; whether it is important or
unimportant, just or unjust, in all
cases in which the legislator has
not laid down a ruling, is a
matter for the dicast himself to
decide; it is not the business of the
litigants to instruct him.
Aristotle's Rhetorica (1404a),
But since
the whole business of Rhetoric is
to influence opinion,
we
must pay attention to it, not as being
right, but necessary;
for, as a matter of right, one should aim
at nothing more in a speech
than
how to avoid exciting pain or
pleasure.
For justice should consist in fighting the
case with the FACTS
ALONE,
so
that everything else that is beside
demonstration is superfluous;
nevertheless, as we have just said, it is
of great importance
owing
to the corruption of the hearer
ALL Theologians
reject Aristotle, Jesus and most of
church history.
Tom Olbricht
is on the right track The CIE
method no longer makes sense
BECAUSE WE no longer believe its
aim is central to the Christian
faith.
It no longer answers OUR
pressing questions concerning meaning,
love, relationships, PERSONAL
KNOWLEDGE of God, inspiration for
daily living. Orthodoxy (right
opinion) is giving place to Orthocardia
(a good heart), to coin a word.
I think,
however, that we must observe that the
older hermeneutic was less interested in
ascertaining what the text meant, than
in determining authorized patterns
for the twentieth century church. --I
think Allan is correct -- that we are
not so much in a hermeneutic as in a
theological method or authority
crisis. (Thomas Olbricht,
CSC. 1989, p.8)
"The
command-example-necessary inference
hermeneutic focuses on the rules (that
is, rules of logic), and the results,
rather than on the actions of God.
It gets the cart before the horse.
We are committed to the book of God, but
not for its own sake, but to the God of
the book." (Thomas Olbricht, CSC.
1989 pp. 11-12).
Possibly the most
widely accepted view among certain FRONT
RUNNER in Dallas, Fort Worth,
Abilene, Nashville, San Antonio, and
Searcy
is
that the scripture is not constitution
or code book, as envisioned by the old
hermeneutic,
but is a lover letter from God."

ARISTOTLE SAYS THAT THEOLOGIANS DENY THAT GOD
WAS COMPETENT.
Aristot. Poet. 1458a
[8] The poets, as
was natural, were the first to give an
impulse to style; for words are imitations,
and the voice also, which of all our parts
is best adapted for imitation, was ready
to hand;
thus the arts of the
rhapsodists, actors, and others, were
fashioned.
[9] And as
the poets, although their utterances
were devoid of SENSE,
appeared to have gained their reputation
through their style,
it
was a poetical style that first came into
being, as that of Gorgias.
Even now the majority of the uneducated
think that such persons express themselves
most beautifully,
whereas
this is not the case,
for the other kind of style, it has
already been treated in the Poetics.

Cope 3.8.1 The structure
(figure, fashion) of the language
(i. e. prose composition) should
be neither metrical (run into
verse)1 nor entirely without
measure or rhythm; for the one has
no power of persuasion, because it
is thought to be artificial
(supra, c. 2. 4, peplasmenōs), and
at the same time also diverts (the
hearers' attention, from the main
subject or the proof of the fact):
for it makes him attend to the
recurrence of the similar cadence.
And so (the audience anticipate
the answering or recurring
cadence) just as the children
anticipate the answer to the

freedman choose for his attorney?
and the answer is, Cleon”’.

In that
regard, epic's position is parallel to
that of RHETORIC. Beginning with
Aristotle's Rhetorica (1404a),
critics of rhetorical performance have
ascribed to lively delivery the same
effect as that of acting.
There is a persistent association between
theatrics, bad rhetoric and EFFEMINANCY

explicit in stating that the music
which I prescribe

then are those who dare to mutilate
themselves; seeing that they draw
down the Apostolic curse,
and accuse the workmanship
of God, and take part with the Manichees?
Chrysostom
understood that the pagans used
vocal or instrumental noise to
stir up or create anxiety so that
they could steal your food money.
Christ outlawed this in Isaiah 55.
Christ outlawed BLASPHEMY in the
modern context of saying that God
commanded instrumental distractions
when He DID NOT.
But if you
will not allow this, why do you not mutilate the tongue for
blasphemy, the hands for rapine,

courses, in short, the whole
body?

BY QUOTING SCRIPTURE I WILL SHOW THAT
ALL OF THE "WE-WHICH-REPLACES-WORD" HAVE
NEVER READ THE PROOF TEXTS BEYOND
WRITING A BOOK OR GETTING ON THE
"LECTURE CIRCUIT."
SCRIPTURE AND ALL FOUNDERS OF RELIGIOUS
INSTITUTIONS CLAIM TO BE
"APOSTOLIC." That means the
perfected work of the Apostles who were
eye-- and ear-- witnesses of Jesus.
SPIRIT means that Jesus SPOKE only what
the FATHER breathed into Him. An
Assembly of Christ--will by a
MARK--build upon or educated by READING
the Apostles and Prophets.
Michael Casey proposes Story form
is more compatible with scripture, for the
most part, than CONSTITUTION,
and
more palatable to an age that DENIGRATES
authoritarianism.
"In my opinion, the
current discussion of biblical
interpretation within Churches of Christ
is more an issue of paradigm than of
particular hermeneutical
strategies." (Jack Reese, CSC 1990,
p. 2). "The 'new hermeneutic,' as I
have argued elsewhere, is basically a paradigm
shift in our driving force"
(Thomas Olbricht, CSC 1990, p. 2).
"Virtually everything we
have ever divided over has been
external. Just list them and
look: located preachers, orphan
homes, missionary societies, Bible
classes, communion cups, kitchens,
translations, instruments of music,
buildings and their proper use,
evangelistic methods, and a host of others
things - most of which are external."
Tom
Olbricht is on the right track The
CIE method no longer makes sense
BECAUSE WE
no longer believe its aim is central to
the Christian faith.
It no longer answers OUR
pressing questions concerning meaning,
love, relationships, PERSONAL KNOWLEDGE
of God, inspiration for daily
living. Orthodoxy (right opinion) is
giving place to Orthocardia (a good
heart), to coin a word.
I think, however, that we
must observe that the older hermeneutic
was less interested in ascertaining what
the text meant, than in determining
authorized patterns for the
twentieth century church. --I think Allan
is correct -- that we are not so much in a
hermeneutic as in a theological method or
authority crisis. (Thomas Olbricht,
CSC. 1989, p.8)
"The command-example-necessary inference
hermeneutic focuses on the rules (that is,
rules of logic), and the results, rather
than on the actions of God. It gets
the cart before the horse. We are
committed to the book of God, but not for
its own sake, but to the God of the
book." (Thomas Olbricht, CSC. 1989 pp.
11-12).
Possibly the most widely accepted view
among certain FRONT RUNNER in Dallas, Fort
Worth, Abilene, Nashville, San Antonio, and
Searcy
is
that the scripture is not constitution or
code book, as envisioned by the old
hermeneutic,
but is
a lover letter from God." (Thomas
Olbricht, CSC. 1989, p.6)
James
Woodroof stated regarding the Jews: "They
had become enamored by the WRITTEN WORD
but oblivious to the LIVING Word."
(James S. Woodroof, The Church In
Transition, p. 29).
But that was Paul's very
point. It was in regard to issue
over which people differed that the
Christians in Rome were called on to
exercise tolerance and maintain
unity." (James S. Woodroof, The
Church in Transition, p. 138).
Much division in the Restoration movement
has resulted from interpretative
disagreements regarding the exhaustive
blueprint and attendant prohibitive role of
silence. Perhaps our history of
fragmentation suggests that the patter
concept of Scripture may not be consonant
with the New Testament itself. (Woody
Woodrow, CSC. 1984, p.7)
The fact that many now regard the matter of
silence as being permissive rather than
prohibitive is well illustrated in the 29
page poem included the the book The
Church In Transition "A Dream Of
Judgment": A Poem Concerning Those Who
Make Laws Based On Inferences From The
Silence Of Scripture, by John Carrol
Brown. (pp. 181-210).
- At the FHU Church Leaders forum, the
participants in favor of Instrumental
Music being in the realm of opinion
indicated that whenever a person
participated in something which God had
not explicitly authorized and were
condemned of God for doing it, it was
because they had a bad heart or were
insincere. There are specific
Scriptures which address this (Deut. 4:2;
Proverbs 30:6; II John 9-11; Revelation
22:18-19). Yet there is also a
specific example. David wanted to
build the Lord a House. The Lord's
reply to David was: "In all the
places wherein I have walked with all the
children of Israel spake I a word with any
of the tribes of Israel, whom I commanded
to feed by people Israel, saying, Why
build ye not me an house of cedar?"
(II Sam. 7:7). David's heart was
right and he was certainly sincere, but
the Lord said "not without My permission,
wait until you are asked!"
A Christian is a Disciple is a STUDENT of
the WORD of Christ. The Word or Logos
is God's Regulative principle. Because
God is God and Olbricht etal are not, it is
impossible to love God and despise His
Word. Whether Scripture is good enough
for theologians or not, it is terminally
dishonest to make merchandise of the word
and try to convince others that your PATTERN
is better than Gods. SPIRIT is
figurative or a PARABLE because Jesus said
that God hides from the wise or Sophists:
performance preaching, singing, playing
instruments or acting. That is because
they cripple the one-piece pattern for
DISCIPLES which is to READ or SPEAK the
Word. They do not and can never accept
the PATTERN of God which is:

WAS JESUS.

Members seem currently more interested
in personal struggles than in reflection
upon how to interpret the Scripture”
(Restoration Quarterly, Vol. 37/No. 1
(1995), “Hermeneutics in the Churches of
Christ, Thomas H. Olbricht).
The reality is that they do not want a
hermeneutic at all. They want to
do what they please, as they please,
with little or no restrictions from
God’s Word. It reminds this
speaker of Psalm 2:1-3.
Michael Casey: “I want to
propose a ‘new hermeneutic’ that grows
out of a critique of the ‘old
hermeneutic’ of command, approved
example, and necessary inference”
(Christian Scholars Conference, 1989).
Paul Roberts: “One of the
major questions, or major approaches
that is so common in our fellowship or
our particular group is a perspective of
looking at the Scriptures. Is our
pattern or our plan of biblical exegesis
–
how do we know what the Bible really
says to do when you go to the
Bible?
Do we have a little pattern or a little
form? It is called – well, we know
it by three ways:
by command, by
example, by necessary inference.
If it commands, you do it. If you
find an example of it in the Scriptures,
then that’s binding upon you.
If it’s necessarily inferred by
Scripture, then that’s biding upon
you.
At
least that’s been the perspective of
the Churches of Christ for about a
century or more.
And, I think that’s one of the reasons
why we are so divided today”
(Radio Sermon,
Westwood Church of Christ, march, 5,
1989).

"who, at the same time are ignorant of, and even averse to, the religion it inculcates; and whilst others
profess to embrace it as a system of religion,
without imbibing the spirit, realizing the truth, and experiencing the power of its religious
institutions; but merely superstruct to themselves, rest in,
and are satisfied with, a form (acts) of godliness;
and that, very often, a deficient, imperfect form, or
such as their own imagination has devised;

Christ is a denial of the power God put

and Life" (John 6:63)
Campbell continues:
"The
author and ultimate object of our holy religion,
is the God and Father of our Lord
Jesus Christ, by his Spirit, speaking in Christ and his holy apostles.
"The principle of
this holy religion within us, is faith, a
correspondent faith; that is, a belief,
or inwrought persuasion by, and
according to, the word of truth,
in all points
corresponding to the revelation
which God has made of himself through Jesus
Christ by the Spirit. Hence, being
rooted and grounded in the truth of this
revelation, by faith in the
divine testimony,
we contemplate and worship God inwardly;
that is, adore and reverence him in our souls, according to the
characters and attributes under which he has
revealed himself to us.
Thus we worship the
Father, through the Son, by the Spirit,
relying upon his teachings in and by the word, to lead us into all
the truth which he has testified for our
edification and salvation;
and also upon his
internal
influence to excite, instruct,
and comfort us, by the truth; to help
our infirmities, and to enable us to
think and pray as we ought, both as to
the matter and manner of our prayers.
See Rom. viii. 26, and Jude 22, 21, with a
multitude of other scriptures.
Thus we have
the internal
religion, the habitual worship of the real
believer, the sincere bible-taught
christian with its principle; which
is the faith above described. See Rom. x. 12-15.

HYPOKRITES,

It is shown in the articles Chorus
and Dionysia
that the Greek drama originated in the
chorus which at the festivals of Dionysus
danced around his altar, and that at first
one person detached himself from the
chorus and, with mimetic gestures, related
his story either to the chorus or in
conversation with it. If the story thus
acted required more than one person, they
were all represented in succession by the
same choreutes.
1
Before the chorus began (or in pauses
between their songs) the leader of the
performance would improvise some appropriate
tale or state the theme which they
were to elaborate. Thus he was called ho exarkhōn
or "the starter," and became in time the
first "actor."

A Satyr play [The BEAST added to the
musician]was an interlude performed by a
troupe of actors dressed as the goat-like
followers of Dionysus. Hence tragōdia,
"goat-song."

John Locke
But since men are so
solicitous about the true church, I would
only ask them here, by the way, if it be
not more agreeable to the Church of Christ
to make the
conditions of her communion consist in such things,
and such things only,
as the Holy
Spirit
has in
the Holy Scriptures declared, in express words, to be necessary to salvation;
I ask, I say, whether
this be not more agreeable to the Church
of Christst
than for
men to impose their own inventions and interpretations upon others as if they were of
Divine authority,
and to establish by
ecclesiastical laws, as absolutely
necessary to the profession of
Christianity, such things as the Holy
Scriptures do either not mention, or at
least not expressly command?
Whosoever requires
those things in order to
ecclesiastical communion, which Christ does not
require in order to life eternal, he
may, perhaps, indeed constitute a
society accommodated to his own opinion and his own advantage;
but how that can
be called the Church of Christ which is established
upon laws that are not His, and which excludes such
persons from its communion as He will one day
receive into the Kingdom of Heaven, I
understand not.
Schism, then, for the same
reasons that have already been alleged,
is nothing
else but a separation made in the
communion of the Church
upon account of something in divine
worship or ecclesiastical discipline that is not any necessary part of it.
Now, nothing in worship or discipline can be necessary to Christian
communion (unity) but what Christ our
legislator, or the Apostles by
inspiration of the Holy Spirit, have
commanded in express words
John Locke, born 1632, defines heresy
and schsm
http://www.piney.com/LockeHerSch.html
The Papists and
Lutherans, though both of them profess faith
in Christ and are therefore called
Christians,
yet are not both of the same religion,
because
these
acknowledge nothing but the Holy Scriptures
to be the rule and foundation of their
religion,
those
take in also traditions and the decrees
of Popes
and of these together make the
rule of their religion;
and thus the Christians of St. John (as they
are called) and the Christians of Geneva
are of
different religions, because
these also take only the Scriptures,
and
those I know not what traditions, for
the rule of their religion.
This being settled, it follows,
first,
that heresy is a separation made in
ecclesiastical communion
between men of the same religion
for some opinions no way contained in the
rule itself;
and,
secondly,
that amongst those who acknowledge nothing
but the Holy Scriptures to be their rule of
faith,
heresy is a
separation made in their Christian communion
for opinions not contained
in the express words of Scripture.

the laded burdens (music, rhetoric, taxes) and

Tom Olbricht confesses that he gained
his New Hermeneutic from reading about
Theology and it is a necessary inference that
it, like religious music, "Makes the lambs
dumb before the slaughter." However, he
is not aware of historic scholarship which
debunks his and the entire tribulation period
twisting of the Declaration
and Address.

1980's, but by decade's end few

More Neo-Pagan
Parallels
Bible professors at some schools claim that
they are part of a "Scholarship Movement,"
began calling for a New Hermeneutic in the
late 1980s. This was exactly 100
years after the infiltrated
Disciples-Christian church professors began to
deny the Biblical and historically affirmed
Word, Logos or Regulative Principle: this
outlawed rhetoric, personal opinions, personal
experiences, singing, playing instruments or
acting. These were all known to hinder the
one-piece pattern of the Church of Christ (the
Rock) clearly defined in the wilderness.
Liberation of Christian thought
came as a result of the Revolutionary War.
Fear of government prevented what Rubel
Shelly defines as a NEW Hermeneutic
in the
Jesus Proposal:
Rubel Shelly
and John York: [p. 114] Our proposal to focus
on Jesus means that
Scripture is NO LONGER a set of
proof-texts or a collection of
facts or God's rulebook for
human behavior. Scripture is the
unfolding story of God acting both
to create and to re-create. It is
not an easy book to understand.
It was NEVER intended as
a document to [p. 115] be INDIVIDUALLY read and
interpreted--a sort~of
correspondence course in
salvation.
While we still
have access to reading as
individuals, we stop asking,
"What does this mean to me?"--as
though there is such an isolated
meaning.
Instead we have a GROUP MENTALITY that asks, "What does
this mean to US?"
Prior to the
invention of the printing press,
access to the content of Scripture
was oral.
For thousands of years it could only be
heard and interpreted in the context
of community.
Yes,
INDIVIDUALS could comment on Scripture, but
those comments were always for the LARGER hearing of
the community.
Only after
there was INDIVIDUAL access did
there become an opportunity for an
individual, isolated reading and
interpretation that had no need
or use for community.
John Calvin informed the Churches
of Christ in Europe and America long before
the so-called Restoration Movement which the
new HERMENEUTIC have divided up into
Turf-Claiming Sects.
World War Two emerged a host of anti-war
sentiment which filled the Bible Colleges
with candidates for evasion. The GI
bill allowed some to move on to a Doctorate
in Theology: Jesus said that the Doctors of
the Law take away the key to knowledge. An
advanced degree will never allow men who
sell their own opinions at retail
(corrupting the Word) to read BLACK
text on BROWN
Paper. That is why Paul in 2 Corinthians 3
said that they cannot HEAR the Word (only)
when it is PREACHED by being READ. Nor
can they READ the Text. Otherwise they would
grasp that the LORD is that SPIRIT.
Churches of Christ were never "unioned" with
the Disciples-Christian Churches. The
Christian Church organized the NACC in 1927
and they did not leave the Disciples until
after the 1968 Restructure and finally in
1971. Several preachers boasted about
infiltrating colleges in the 1960s and the
Stone-Campbell Movement was formed based on
lies.
My memory began in the late 1960s
with Thomas H. Olbricht, Restoration
Quarterly, and Mission Journal. "
Much of the writers parroted the earlier
works of Olbricht (Bible professor
at Pepperdine University), and the more
recent works of C. Leonard Allen
(Bible professor at Abilene Christian
University). According to the so called
"Scholarship Movement," our current
hermeneutic (the "Old Hermeneutic" of
command, example, and necessary inference)
must be abandoned and replaced with a NH
because they claim our current hermeneutic
is a manmade tradition taken from the 19th
century. The NH advocates have not reached
a consensus as to what the NH ought to be,
but they are all in agreement that the
"Old Hermeneutic" must go. "Out with the
old and in with the new" is the cry of the
NH.
SHADY AND HERMES-LIKE NEW
HERME-NEUTS Homer
on Hermes
Hermes:
Born with the
dawning, at mid-day he played on the lyre, and in the
evening he stole the cattle of
far-shooting Apollo on the fourth day of
the month; for on that day queenly Maia
bare him. When Zeus had an
affair with Mnemosyne, he
coupled with her for nine consecutive
nights, which produced nine
daughters, who became known as the
Muses.
They entertained
their father and the other gods as a celestial choir
on Mount Olympus.
They became deities of
intellectual pursuits. Also the three
Charites or Graces were
born from Zeus and Eurynome.
From all his children Zeus gave man
all he needed to live life in an
ordered and moral way.
Hermes,
the herald of the Olympian gods, is son
of Zeus and the nymph Maia,
daughter of Atlas and one of the
Pleiades.
Hermes is also
the god of shepherds, land
travel, merchants, weights and
measures, oratory, literature,
athletics and thieves,
and known for
his cunning and shrewdness.
He was also a minor patron of poetry.
He was worshiped throughout Greece
especially in Arcadia.
Festivals in honor of Hermes were
called Hermoea.
Originally Hermes was a phallic
god, being attached to fertility
and good fortune, and also a patron of
roads and boundaries. His name coming
from herma, the plural being
hermaiherm was a square or rectangular
pillar in either stone or bronze,
with the head of Hermes
(usually with a beard), which adorned
the top of the pillar, and male
genitals near to the base of the
pillar.
The offspring of
Hermes are believed to be Pan, Abderus
and Hermaphroditus. Hermes
as with the other gods had numerous
affairs with goddesses, nymphs
and mortals. In some legends even
sheep and goats. Pan, the half
man half goat, is believed to be the son
of Hermes and Dryope,
And when the
purpose of great Zeus was fixed in
heaven, she was delivered and a
notable thing was come to pass.
For then she
bare a son, of many shifts, blandly
cunning, a robber, a
cattle driver, a bringer of
dreams, a watcher by night, a
thief at the gates, one who
was soon to show forth wonderful
deeds among the deathless gods.
Born with the
dawning, at mid-day he played on the lyre, and in
the evening he stole the
cattle of far-shooting Apollo on the
fourth day of the month; for on that
day queenly Maia bare him.
Hermes (The Greek Jubal) invented the
Lyre and it became the instrument of
Apollon-Abaddon. He was the Spirit of and
Leader of his Musical Worship Team. They
were known as adulteresses which the Greeks
applied to speakers, singers, instrument
player or anyone who sold their persona.

it
was needful for me to write unto you, and
exhort you
that ye should
earnestly contend for the faith [The Word, Logos,

ungodly men, turning the grace of our God

smite them. Isaiah 30:31 LXX
And it shall

For thou shalt be

a trench kindled with sulphur. Isaiah 30:33 LXX
From the Golden Calf:
The Canaanites were
under Assyro-Babylonian dominance from
3000 to 1700 BCE. Even by circa 1400 BCE,
their influence was still so great that
all correspondence with Egypt and the
Pharaoh was conducted in Babylonian, and
the name of the moon-god Sin
formed the basis for the Canaanite
names Sinai and the wilderness of
Sin (ERE, Vol. 3, p. 183). The hand
of Sin was seen in the cause of Catatonia
or madness in children - hence, lunacy
is associated with this deity
