Passover is not about dead children

You may have heard people talking about how "bad" Passover is! They will tell you that "God kills children," and this is one of those times in which such happened. This is a myth! God never kills anyone! Most deaths are due to the devil or the person's fault! No, I am not victim -blaming here. It is merely a fact that many of the things that happen to us are somewhat caused by us, and, no, this is not victim -blaming. Western logic makes this difficult! Western logic demands that there be blame on somebody even if you cannot prove that what happened was even bad! Western logic is all about causes! Reality is not! Reality is about relationships! Think quantum! Causality doesn't exist there! And you can't call God guilty, because guilt implies truth, and you can't have truth without an Holy Book, but if you get rid of a Deity, then, you have no way to apply guilt, and also you have nobody to apply guilt to, since you are blaming God. And also, so you really believe that it is all that good to be so small and helpless? I do not say that what happened was good, but we live in a fallen world, where moral options are not always possible! So, instead of blaming God, you can weep for the loss of innocence, and the destruction of the world that brings such about! Passover remembers that!

Together in the Garden of Love

Song of Solomon 6 English Standard Version (ESV)

Others

6 Where has your beloved gone,
    O most beautiful among women?
Where has your beloved turned,
    that we may seek him with you?

Together in the Garden of Love

She

2 My beloved has gone down to his garden
    to the beds of spices,
to graze[a] in the gardens
    and to gather lilies.
3 I am my beloved's and my beloved is mine;
    he grazes among the lilies.

Solomon and His Bride Delight in Each Other

He

4 You are beautiful as Tirzah, my love,
    lovely as Jerusalem,
    awesome as an army with banners.
5 Turn away your eyes from me,
    for they overwhelm me—
Your hair is like a flock of goats
    leaping down the slopes of Gilead.
6 Your teeth are like a flock of ewes
    that have come up from the washing;
all of them bear twins;
    not one among them has lost its young.
7 Your cheeks are like halves of a pomegranate
    behind your veil.
8 There are sixty queens and eighty concubines,
    and virgins without number.
9 My dove, my perfect one, is the only one,
    the only one of her mother,
    pure to her who bore her.
The young women saw her and called her blessed;
    the queens and concubines also, and they praised her.

10 “Who is this who looks down like the dawn,
    beautiful as the moon, bright as the sun,
    awesome as an army with banners?”

She

11 I went down to the nut orchard
    to look at the blossoms of the valley,
to see whether the vines had budded,
    whether the pomegranates were in bloom.
12 Before I was aware, my desire set me
    among the chariots of my kinsman, a prince.[b]

Others

13 [c] Return, return, O Shulammite,
    return, return, that we may look upon you.

He

Why should you look upon the Shulammite,
    as upon a dance before two armies?[d]
