Pagan
is Easter; why the woe?
I have
redone this matrix and extended the main term.
The "why" is reversed and has "intrigue" running
through it and sharing a letter.
The word "Asherah" is the Hebrew word for Ishtar who is denounced
in the Bible. In the King James Version it is translated as "groves".
"abominate" overwrites and shares a letter with "Asherah".
And the term passes through several relevant (IMO anyway) verses in
scripture:
Yet they seek me daily, and delight to know my ways, as a nation that
did righteousness, and forsook not the ordinance of their God: they
ask of me the ordinances of justice; they take delight in approaching
to God. Isaiah 58.2
And I will feed them that oppress thee with their own flesh; and they
shall be drunken with their own blood, as with sweet wine: and all flesh
shall know that I the Lord am thy Saviour and thy Redeemer, the mighty
One of Jacob. Isaiah 49.6
Yet now hear, O Jacob my servant; and Israel, whom I have chosen: Isaiah
44.1
The instruments also of the churl are evil: he deviseth wicked devices
to destroy the poor with lying words, even when the needy speaketh right.
Isaiah 32.7
And behold at eveningtide trouble; and before the morning he is not.
This is the portion of them that spoil us, and the lot of them that
rob us. Isaiah 17.14
The odds on this entire main term has a Standard Deviation of 15,138.5
( 5 is less than 1 in a million)
Since the "why" is reversed I don't know if that is a correct
way to calculate or not.
The search started out as "Pagan is Easter" the odds on finding
in the Tanakh are 1 in 20.
Finding "pagan is Easter" entirely in the Book of Isaiah the
Standard Deviation is 40.10 - way past 1 in a million.
Thanks to Fab for the help.
