I think it's asking you to find 3 physical actions (the belt he wore is 1) that had nothing to do with the action, but what it represented. He wore the belt a lot; buried it & dug it up later. When he dug up the belt, it was ruined & useless from rotting. This represented the uselessness of the pride in the nation of Israel's heart. Just as a belt is bound to a man's waist, G-d was saying He wanted to bind Israel to Himself...but Isreal wouldn't allow it. Their pride was being compared to a rotten, useless belt.

I think Frat and Saintrose have the right ideas.  Read everything, study it, compare it to what you believe.  Then pray earnestly about it and God will guide you.  In fact, that's how I became a Baha'i -- I read a bunch of stuff & got so excited by what I was reading that I started copying down (by hand....) sentences that I wanted to remember.  I wound up with 12 pages.  And I prayed a lot... I just couldn't (can't) stay away!

well you cant with out using the bible. but you can reference a totalitarian government. this in itsself is a beast so if you turn it around like that it can bring all of your audience in. try linking it to the jew symbols in nazi germany if you get stuck but thats a real dramatic scene to bring into a paper when you may be able to get at the point with out using it.

Unfortunately the story is mentioned in Islamic history. This is the problem when faith gets mixed with politics. Assissanation and killing opponents is very common among politicians, but it was not supposed to be for a prophet.

What are the reasons that they should not be doing this?  Write down a few words or phrases.\n\nThis should lead you to a slogan.  Remember that in posters, it's not only the slogan that sells the message, but also the graphics.\n\nGood luck!

Go count up the number of humans the "God" of the Bible caused the death of then count up the number "Satan" killed. Methinks they got the labels mixed up ; )

It's hard to say. Many times when you take things like that out of context, they can lose a lot of their meaning. However, it seems to me that he was saying that he would send prophets to us to help show us the way.

well i will introduce you to the hebrew tree of life. it has ten sephiroth (dots) and with these 10 dots are 22 connecting lines (22 major arcana cards and 22 hebrew letters) then you will see that like i do that the start of tarot is obviously some sort of flash card system for studying qabala. qabala is more then a mystical approach developed by hebrews i believe it comes before hebrews. qabala is quite literally a methodical approach to become totally one in spirit with the moment of now. a system if used correctly would balance out your energy, it would eradicate the ego voice in you. the tree of life is also a excellent filing system that fits all your experiences into it like tarot does. pagan festivals are based on the sun and not tarot. although some aspects of tarot can be and were used time to time. the pagan holiday is based on a 45 day basis. nearly or thereabouts a holiday was 45 days from one another. so there were 8 different holidays in the course of a year.  starting in october with samhain (pronounced sow en)  on october 31st was the day of new transformations, so in a way it best described the death card. it was considered much as the new years is today with the exception that much of the celebrations was done with the ancients in mind. next is Yule. december 20th (depending on the longest night) this celebration was to restart the sun getting warmer and yule logs were burned. next was imbolg or candlemas on or near feb 2  this celebrated that the winter was nearly over and spring was soon coming. next was ostara in or around march 21st this was the beginning of spring and rituals of fertility using rabbits and eggs were used to replenish the stores of foods used up over the long winter. next was beltaine which is another spring rite that equates to may day. may pole dances were fashioned from magick gathering dances sending energy along a ribbon tied to a pole. the patterns made by many ribbons would be divined or read by the local matriarch. then after beltaine was litha or high summer on or around june 22. this is the opposite of yule this is the longest day. then is lughnassa or lughnasadh which is the beginning of harvest. then mabon on or around sep 21. mabon is final harvest and spicing or storing for the long winter months coming. then back to samhain on october 31st.\n\n\nto go on to the rest of the question put to me i would answer that the wheel of the year goes as such winter would be north and the element earth(cold and dry) spring would be air and east (warm and moist) summer would be south and fire (warm and dry) and fall would be water and west (cold and moist)\n\nas i answered in your question relating to tarot and tree of life the four worlds of the tree are\nAtziluth which is the tree of primordial fire and this is the suit of wands\nBriah which is the tree of primoridial water and this is the suit of cups\nYetzirah is the tree of primordial air and this is the suit of swords\n\nAssiah is the tree of primordial earth and this is the suit of pentacles

Scott, I do agree with you.  However, I do find things like this to be very interesting, and it is amazing to find how some things do relate to each other symbolically.  I'm not entirely sure of the accuracy of these, but I think that they are correct.  \n\n1=God, begining, source, unity, first.\n2=number of witness (in the mouth of two or more witnesses), friendship\n3=Godhead, trinity, divine completness, perfect testimony\n4=number of earth, creation, world, four gospels, four winds, four seasons, four corners of the earth.  \n5=grace, atonement(this is probably the meaning you were referencing), life, the cross, five-fold ministeries. \n6=number of man, beast, satan, idol.\n7=perfectio, completness, number of book of Revelation, finished, day of rest, (used 600 times in the Bible)\n8=resurrection, new beginings, put on new man.\n9=harvest, ministry, fullness, friutfullness, number of gifts of the Holy Spirit(maybe that are mentioned???), number of birthing(baby born in 9 months).\n10=number of law, order, government, restoration, antichrist kingdom, trial, testing, responsibiblity, tithe\n11=incompletness, disorganization, disintegration, disorder, lawlessness, need for apostolic fullness (11 apostles after Judas hanged himself).\n12=divine government, apostolic fullness.\n13=rebellion/backsliding, apostacy\n14=passover\n15=spiritual order\n16=free spirit, without bounderies, without limitation, without law therefore without sin ROMANS 4:15, salvation.\n17=spiritual void\n18=put on jugdment, destruction, captivity, overcome put on spririt of Christ (Judges 10:7-8, Luke 13:4, 3:11, 16)\n19=barren, repentant, ashamed, selflessness, without self rightousness (2 Samuel 2:30, Romans 6:21).\n20= can either mean holy, tried and approved or unholy and found wanting.\n24=priestly courses, govermental perfection\n30=consecration, maturity for ministry(I would guess this is because Jesus began His ministry at age 30)\n40=probation, testing, ending in victory or defeat.\n50=number of pentecost, liberty, freedom, jubilee.\n70=prior to increase of representive of a multitude.\n75=number of separation, cleansing, purification.\n100=fullness, full measure, full recompense, full reward, ect. (Genesis 26:12, Mark :10:30)\n120=end of all flesh, beginning of life in the Spirit.\n124=number of God's ultimate in creation and redemption.\n163=number of God's electm revival, ingathering, harvest.\n300=number of faithful remnant.\n666=antichrist, satan, beast.\n1000=maturity, full stature (Isaiah 17:33,5, Ephesians 4:13)\n\nThese are the numbers that I know of, I'm not sure of the valitidy of all of them, but I hope this helps!  These are fun to look at tho, even tho they aren't the whole purpose of the Bible, keep that in mind.  But is IS interesting to see how things weave together, and it is another proof that the Bible was inspired by God, not randomly written by a bunch of different men.  \n\n2 Timothy 3:16\n\n  All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting, and training is righteousness.\n\n\nGod bless!!

CORRECTIONS FOLLOW.  Look carefully, as some of them are easily missed (such as the colon after the salutation).  Corrected format, syntax, clarity, paragraphs, etc.  Good luck.\n\nDear So and So:\n\nI am writing this letter on the behalf of my Legacy for the Art Studio class. \n\nOur project consists of a storyboard/framed pictorial that focuses on a comedic story about about a man -- my father, in fact -- who does not know how to speak English, and what happens when he tries to buy chickens at KFC. \n\nThe artwork will contain multiple pen and pencil sketches on standard leter-sized white paper. I would like the artwork to be hung in suitable location at eye-level on the second or third floor. Please note that the contents (i.e., story, size, medium, etc.) of the artwork can be changed if necessary, however, due to the nature of this project, that could impose an unrealistic deadline on the project. \n\nPlease let me know if you require any further information or if I may be of assistance.\n\nSincerely yours,\n\nFalennixonx

I'm a big A Perfect Circle fan, those lyrics are full of symbolism.  I would pick something that you personally enjoy and have found meaning to, instead of trying to read symbolism into other's ideas (in other words, turn off yahoo answers and do your homework :)

Ok, I am an established scholar in the field of comparative religion, and I teach at a major university, including courses with units on the LDS Church.  Frankly, I fail to see how this assignment forces any religion on anyone.  However, two of the questions are indeed problematic. \n\nFact: Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints were persecuted.  \n\nFact: There are major differences between their religion and other forms of Christianity.\n\nHistorically problematic: "Mormons falsely accused of bloc voting."\n(It's spelled BLOC not BLOCK.)\n\nDebatable: "Joseph Smith murdered for something he didn't do?" \n\nCan a professor assign this?  Sure.  What would ~I~ do?  I'd answer the second two questions in the negative by marshalling appropriate scholarly sources that argue to the contrary.  (It would be a great paper, I think.)  :)\n\nMy advice?  Since you are a student, and not this professor's peer, and you are probably also worried about your grade, write your essay, and deal with the first two questions.
