The Hornet in the Beehive

The passages of the Bible that mention hornets (or, notably, just a single hornet) are talking almost exclusively about the Exodus of the people of Israel from Egypt and God guiding them to the promised land. Specifically, these verses discuss how the people already living in the promised land will be destroyed ahead of the chosen peoples’ arrival by the hornet(s).

The hornet is not who you think it is.

Read on Ao3

Exodus 23:28

The reference in verse 28 appears within this section, entitled God’s Angel to Prepare the Way:

20 “See, I am sending an angel ahead of you to guard you along the way and to bring you to the place I have prepared. 21 Pay attention to him and listen to what he says. Do not rebel against him; he will not forgive your rebellion, since my Name is in him. 22 If you listen carefully to what he says and do all that I say, I will be an enemy to your enemies and will oppose those who oppose you. 23 My angel will go ahead of you and bring you into the land of the Amorites, Hittites, Perizzites, Canaanites, Hivites and Jebusites, and I will wipe them out… 28 I will send the hornet ahead of you to drive the Hivites, Canaanites and Hittites out of your way.

From this, we may be able to take that the guardian angel sent ahead of the Chosen People to wipe out the unclean is synonymous with the hornet (in the original Hebrew, הַצִּרְעָ֖ה, “haṣ-ṣir-‘āh” and yes it seems that the Hebrew word for hornet is pronounced Azira, or more specifically, “A-tsira,” “the-hornet”). (Why did I look at this? Because I wanted to know if the translation for hornet(s) was from a singular, plural, or group noun. Seems like it’s a group noun but I’m not certain.)

So what we have here is an angel symbolically represented as a hornet, pronounced Azira in the original language of the Bible, whose job it is to wipe out those God deems unworthy.

Do with this as you will.

Deuteronomy 7:20

This verse appears in a section entitled Driving Out the Nations

1 When the Lord your God brings you into the land you are entering to possess and drives out before you many nations—the Hittites, Girgashites, Amorites, Canaanites, Perizzites, Hivites and Jebusites, seven nations larger and stronger than you— 2 and when the Lord your God has delivered them over to you and you have defeated them, then you must destroy them totally (footnote: The Hebrew term refers to the irrevocable giving over of things or persons to the Lord, often by totally destroying them; also in verse 26). Make no treaty with them, and show them no mercy.

20 Moreover, the Lord your God will send the hornet among them until even the survivors who hide from you have perished.

Notably, “hornet” is translated in the singular in seven out of eight translations available here. The Message even capitalizes it.

Joshua 24:12

This section is entitled The Covenant Renewed at Shechem

8 “‘I brought you to the land of the Amorites who lived east of the Jordan. They fought against you, but I gave them into your hands. I destroyed them from before you, and you took possession of their land.

11 “‘Then you crossed the Jordan and came to Jericho. The citizens of Jericho fought against you, as did also the Amorites, Perizzites, Canaanites, Hittites, Girgashites, Hivites and Jebusites, but I gave them into your hands. 12 I sent the hornet ahead of you, which drove them out before you—also the two Amorite kings. You did not do it with your own sword and bow. 13 So I gave you a land on which you did not toil and cities you did not build; and you live in them and eat from vineyards and olive groves that you did not plant.’

Translation choices here are getting a little tricky: nine translations use “the hornet,” and the Lexham English Bible specifically emphasizes the hornet. New Living Translation and New Century Version have both replaced “the hornet” with “terror.” A footnote available here reads: Traditionally, “the hornet” (so KJV, NKJV, NASB, NIV, NRSV) but the precise meaning of the Hebrew word is uncertain (cf. NEB “panic”).

In summary

There’s a hornet (someone very powerful and very dangerous) in the beehive (Heaven), but it isn’t Crowley.

This is (in my humble opinion) some strong evidence that the intended symbolism behind Aziraphale’s name is a reference to the Hornet that goes before the people of Israel, slaying the Amorites, et cetera, to claim their land. There is some apparent parallelism between an angel clearing out the unfaithful to make way for the chosen people in the Exodus, and an angel whose major responsibility it is to bring about the Second Coming, the Day of Judgment which will also result in the wiping out of those who are found wanting.

The Final Fifteen, again

Aziraphale could not have said no. He could not have refused the Metatron and run away with Crowley. Aziraphale is the Hornet that goes before the righteous to rid the world of the unrighteous.

This was always Aziraphale’s destiny.

~~~

Author’s note: we live in interesting times. My use of the word “Israel” and surrounding language in this meta is strictly with regard to ancient Biblical texts as they are relevant to a fictional work, Good Omens. None of this should be construed as an opinion regarding current political events.

Leviticus 25:44-46

Your male and female slaves are to come from the nations around you; from them you may buy slaves.

You may also buy some of the temporary residents living among you and members of their clans born in your country, and they will become your property.

You can bequeath them to your children as inherited property and can make them slaves for life, but you must not rule over your fellow Israelites ruthlessly.

Exodus 21:20-21

Anyone who beats their male or female slave with a rod must be punished if the slave dies as a direct result,

but they are not to be punished if the slave recovers after a day or two, since the slave is their property.

Exodus 21:32

If the bull gores a male or female slave, the owner must pay thirty shekels of silver to the master of the slave, and the bull is to be stoned to death.

The objective morality of an eternal being.

Trust in the Lord with All Your Heart

1 My son, do not forget my law, But let your heart keep my commands; 2 For length of days and long life And peace they will add to you. 3 Let not mercy and truth forsake you; Bind them around your neck, Write them on the tablet of your heart, 4 And so find favor and high esteem In the sight of God and man. 5 Trust in the Lord with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding; 6 In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths. 7 Do not be wise in your own eyes; Fear the Lord and depart from evil. 8 It will be health to your flesh, And strength to your bones. 9 Honor the Lord with your possessions, And with the firstfruits of all your increase; 10 So your barns will be filled with plenty, And your vats will overflow with new wine. 11 My son, do not despise the chastening of the Lord, Nor detest His correction; 12 For whom the Lord loves He corrects, Just as a father the son in whom he delights.

Blessed Is the One Who Finds Wisdom

13 Happy is the man who finds wisdom, And the man who gains understanding; 14 For her proceeds are better than the profits of silver, And her gain than fine gold. 15 She is more precious than rubies, And all the things you may desire cannot compare with her. 16 Length of days is in her right hand, In her left hand riches and honor. 17 Her ways are ways of pleasantness, And all her paths are peace. 18 She is a tree of life to those who take hold of her, And happy are all who retain her. 19 The Lord by wisdom founded the earth; By understanding He established the heavens; 20 By His knowledge the depths were broken up, And clouds drop down the dew. 21 My son, let them not depart from your eyes-- Keep sound wisdom and discretion; 22 So they will be life to your soul And grace to your neck. 23 Then you will walk safely in your way, And your foot will not stumble. 24 When you lie down, you will not be afraid; Yes, you will lie down and your sleep will be sweet. 25 Do not be afraid of sudden terror, Nor of trouble from the wicked when it comes; 26 For the Lord will be your confidence, And will keep your foot from being caught. 27 Do not withhold good from those to whom it is due, When it is in the power of your hand to do so. 28 Do not say to your neighbor, "Go, and come back, And tomorrow I will give it," When you have it with you. 29 Do not devise evil against your neighbor, For he dwells by you for safety's sake. 30 Do not strive with a man without cause, If he has done you no harm. 31 Do not envy the oppressor, And choose none of his ways; 32 For the perverse person is an abomination to the Lord, But His secret counsel is with the upright. 33 The curse of the Lord is on the house of the wicked, But He blesses the home of the just. 34 Surely He scorns the scornful, But gives grace to the humble. 35 The wise shall inherit glory, But shame shall be the legacy of fools. — Proverbs 3 | New King James Version (NKJV) The Holy Bible; New King James Version®.

Flavor Text Highlights

So, one thing that I did two years ago (and have kept updated since) on twitter was my flavor text thread, where I went through each set in Magic history and picked the top 4 (or, for some exceptional cases, 8) best pieces of flavor text in my opinion.

Since then, I have regreted some choices and very much dislike the fact I can't edit the original tweets to reflect changes on the rules I followed for card selection... So I might as well use Tumblr as the place to correct all that.

Every day from now on, I will re-post a set from the list until I catch up to it, then eventually update it as new magic sets come out. The rules for selection can be seen after the linebreak below (as well as a full list of sets I've already gone through, with links). The first one can be found here.

1- Categorization

I will always try to select a diverse list of cards so as to fill the following 4 categories of flavor text types:

Cool - Boasts and descriptions that serve to make the subject matter of the card seem powerful and/or interesting.

Funny - Dialogue, descriptions or epigrams meant to get a laugh out of you

Worldbuilding - Flavor text whose biggest strength comes not from what it says on its own, but how it helps build upon either the world the set takes place in or the story of the set in question

Emotional - This one could conceivably be separated in two whole categories, but it encompasses cards that would fill the same niche as the "Cool" category but with a specific focus on either sadness or horror.

However, there will be situations where there might be a number of good flavor texts within a certain category while another is found lacking of any truly great options. In such scenarios, I will simply remove one (and in rare cases more) of the categories and repeat one of the remaining options. For an extreme example, the first Un-sets barely had any non-Funny options, so when picking cards from those sets most/all of the picks will be from the Funny category.

2- Card Selection

Cards will be reviewed only if they have new flavor text (using scryfall's "new:flavor" filter) and only if it's original flavor text (aka no real world references or quotes from literature) while sets will either be reviewed alone or grouped up depending on the amount of eligible cards in the set. Although I don't have a hard cut-off point for how many new flavor texts a set needs to be reviewed alone, the general range is around 150.

For sets that don't reach that number, they will either be bundled with an associated set (i.e. reviewing Commander precons with their associated Standard set) or bundled with a lot of other smaller products until a suitable number is reached (i.e. bundling all early Masters sets and Duel Decks together, since the amount of new flavor texts in those products is very low).

2.1 - Cycles

For some sets, a collection of cards (usually a cycle) will have flavor texts that work together, expand on each other or combine into a single theme. If said interaction is particularly good or if there isn't already a good flavor text that can stand up on its own, a cycle might be picked for a specific entry. Below, I will try to set up a list of every post for this, in order:

1. Alpha/Beta/Unlimited 2. Antiquities 3. Legends 4. The Dark 5. Fallen Empires 6. Ice Age 7. Homelands 8. Alliances 9. Mirage 10. Visions 11. Portal 11. Weatherlight 12. Tempest 13. Stronghold 14. Exodus 15. Portal Second Age 16. Unhinged + Unglued 17. Urza's Saga 18. Urza's Legacy 19. Urza's Destiny 20. Mercadian Masques 21. Nemesis 22. Prophecy 23. Invasion 24. Planeshift 25. Apocalypse 26. Odyssey 27. Torment 28. Judgment 29. Onslaught 30. Legions 31. Scourge 32. Mirrodin 33. Darksteel 34. Fifth Dawn 35. Champions of Kamigawa 36. Betrayers of Kamigawa 37. Saviors of Kamigawa 38. Core Sets (4th Edition - 10th Edition) 39. Ravnica: City of Guilds 40. Guildpact 41. Dissension 42. Coldsnap 43. Time Spiral 44. Planar Chaos 45. Future Sight 46. Lorwyn 47. Morningtide 48. Shadowmoor 49. Eventide 50. Duel Decks 51. Shards of Alara 52. Conflux 53. Alara Reborn 54. Magic 2010 55. Zendikar 56. Worldwake 57. Rise of the Eldrazi 58. Magic 2011 59. Scars of Mirrodin 60. Mirrodin Besieged 61. New Phyrexia 62. Commander Precons (Commander 2011 - Commander 2019) 63. Magic 2012 64. Innistrad

FAQ:

"But how can you be a Christian and leftist?" Because Jesus is!

"The Bible isn't about politics. Why are you bringing your own personal agenda to the text?" We all always bring our own biases to the text. The question is simply whether we acknowledge them or not. Most interpretations of the Bible you'll hear twist the Bible to support the status quo. We read the Bible, usually pretty straightforwardly, and realize that that interpretation isn't congruent with the book written by an oppressed people about their liberatory God.

"I don't really know the Bible all that well. What can I contribute?" Your perspective! We read the Bible from a leftist and liberationist perspective, and a big part of the liberationist perspective is that everyone has something to add to our understanding of the Bible. We offer many, often contradictory, readings of a story in each episode. Your job as a co-host isn't to know the Bible in and out, but to do as much reading and/or research as you need to feel comfortable sharing your thoughts with a broader audience.

If you're interested, it doesn't hurt to just post a take! Worst case scenario, you can tell me you're not interested later on. More likely, you'll have a great time recording with us and I'll be DMing you again to get you into new episodes!

This recap of important dates tho

https://www.fotbollskanalen.se/landslag/viktiga-datum-detta-har-hant-i-spanska-konflikten/

omg that is so many 😳

August 31, 2022: Three Spanish players face the press after the incident of a private conversation with the president, Luis Rubiales, was leaked. Jorge Vilda's resignation has been requested there - information which is then rejected by the players at the press conference.

September 22, 2022: The association releases a statement that 15 players are on strike and that they will not allow pressure from the players, and that all must apologize if they want to return to the national team.

September 23, 2022: The open letter from the players is leaked and later in the evening the players release a response to the union through their social media.

30 September 2022: Jorge Vilda withdraws his national team squad - all 15 players are out of the squad against Sweden. The union captain also states that 15 new players are the only solution to the conflict as he will not resign.

30 June 2023: The Spanish World Cup squad is withdrawn and several of the striking players are included - among them: Ona Batlle, Aitana Bonmati and Mariona Caldentey.

August 20, 2023: Spain win a historic World Cup gold after Olga Carmano scores the game's only goal against England. The national team's achievements are overshadowed when confederation chairman Luis Rubiales took the liberty of kissing Jennifer Hermoso on the mouth without her permission.

At the same time, a video comes out from the locker room where Hermoso is heard saying she didn't like it.

August 21, 2023: Rubiales hit back at the harsh criticism after the kiss to later that day apologize for the behavior in a video released by the Spanish Football Federation. According to Spanish media, the federation allegedly tried to force Hermoso to be in the video and tried to get her family members to persuade her. In addition, there were reports that the union had written a statement in Hermoso's name, which later turned out to be false.

August 23, 2023: Jenni Hermoso issues a statement through the Spanish players' union and her agency announcing that she will initiate legal proceedings against Rubiales.

August 24, 2023: There are reports that Luis Rubiales will announce his resignation at a press conference on August 25th.

August 25, 2023: The press conference where Rubiales is expected to announce his resignation takes a turn. The union chairman is said to have said that "these people are murdering me in public" and then he repeated time and time again that he is not resigning. This to applause from, among others, Jorge Vilda and the management staff.

Later in the same day, the Spanish World Cup heroes announced that they refuse to play in the national team unless Rubiales resigns.

Hermoso went out on his channels and put down that the kiss was in some way mutual - "I don't tolerate my words being questioned, let alone inventing things I didn't say".

In addition to the 23 World Cup heroes, another 35 players signed a letter demanding serious action.

August 26, 2023 : The Spanish federation hits back at Jenni Hermoso in a statement trying to prove that Jenni Hermoso allegedly picked up the federation flag and hugged him.

"Mr Rubiales has not lied - the RFEF and Rubiales will refute each and every one of the lies spread".

Hermoso fights back and believes that she and her entourage were blackmailed into making a statement that favors Rubiales.

In the afternoon of the same day, the announcement comes from Fifa - Rubiales is suspended for 90 days.

Later in the day, information comes that several coaches and leaders are leaving the association in a coordinated mass exodus as a protest. Including Montse Tomé, who later becomes the new national team captain.

August 28, 2013: Rubiale's mother goes on hunger strike in protest against all the negative publicity about her son. Ángeles Béjar locked herself in a church indefinitely - in the hope that there will be a resolution that her son deserves.

During the afternoon, Spanish public prosecutors announced that they had opened an investigation into sexual abuse against Rubiales.

The Spanish Football Federation is also said to have convened an internal crisis meeting to discuss Rubiale's future. During the evening, a statement came from the association demanding Rubiale's resignation and saying that he has seriously damaged Spanish football.

September 1, 2023: Spain's government calls for Luis Rubiales to be suspended pending an investigation by the Court of Sports.

September 5, 2023: Confederation captain Jorge Vilda, who led Spain to a historic World Cup gold, is fired and Montse Tomé takes over.

September 6, 2023: Hermoso reports Luis Rubiales to the police for kissing her on the mouth without consent. The Spanish prosecutor's office has, according to AP, assumed that Rubiales risks a fine or imprisonment in one to four years - if he is judged guilty.

September 7, 2023: In an interview with Piers Morgan, Rubiales resigns as confederation chairman of the RFEF.

15 September 2023: Spain postpones its squad selection ahead of the Nations League. The Spanish players go out in an open letter stating that they will not take part and that they believe that the changes that have been made are not enough.

Rubiales appears in court where the prosecution is taking precautionary measures. Rubiales cannot contact Hermoso and must be at least 500 meters away from her.

September 16, 2023: Athenea del Castillo was the only one not to sign the open letter that went out on Friday - the striker believes that you have a duty to your profession and wants to play in the Olympics.

September 17, 2023: The Spanish players receive an email from the federation stating that they must respond to the email within six hours to be eligible for selection on Monday. None of the boycotting players respond.

September 18, 2023: The Spanish federation poodles before the selection of the squad for the Nations League and believes that it will carry out the requested changes.

Tomé then takes out his first squad where 15 WC players are on the list. Also boycotting Mapi Leon and Patri Guijarro are withdrawn. The Spanish national team players come out with a statement that they were unaware of the selection and that they saw it on TV - Jenni Hermoso is out of the squad.

The players are threatened with fines and suspended player licenses if they do not show up on Tuesday - but the stars mark that they did not want to be singled out via their social media.

Hermoso hits back at Tomé who "wanted to protect her" by leaving her out of the squad. “Protect me from what? And from whom?", she writes in a statement.

September 19, 2023: The Spanish national team players join the player hotel in Madrid and Valencia. The players clearly indicate that they are not satisfied and do not want to be there.

Later in the evening, a seven-hour meeting begins between the players and the federation, where CSD (equivalent to the National Sports Confederation in Sweden) is the mediator. The parties agreed and the union promises structural changes.

21 out of 23 players will therefore travel to Sweden for the match. Patri Guijarro and Mapi León are two players who are not completely satisfied with the situation.

September 20, 2023: Mapi León and Patri Guijarro leave the collection.
