After a night of 20 degree temps you can bet I’m thanking God for putting it there.

Disclaimer Don’t really look at the sun directly, you could damage your eyes

That advice about looking at the sun was meant only for liberal Democrats.

I’d suggest a maximum of 30 minutes.

In Hebrew it is called birchas hachama, and you can google it if you are interested in reading more about it.

Some things never change

Ezekiel 8:16-18
And he brought me into the inner court of the LORD’S house, and, behold, at the door of the temple of the LORD, between the porch and the altar, were about five and twenty men, with their backs toward the temple of the LORD, and their faces toward the east; and they worshipped the sun toward the east.

Then he said unto me, Hast thou seen this, O son of man? Is it a light thing to the house of Judah that they commit the abominations which they commit here? for they have filled the land with violence, and have returned to provoke me to anger: and, lo, they put the branch to their nose.

Therefore will I also deal in fury: mine eye shall not spare, neither will I have pity: and though they cry in mine ears with a loud voice, yet will I not hear them.

I thought Archbishop Ussher had the creation of Adam in the fall. How did he ignore this Jewish tradition?

According to ancient Jewish traditions, once every 28 years the sun returns to the precise point in the sky where it appeared, at the very first moment of Creation.

According to Bishop Ussher it would be in October. Who's right?

Great advice for solarly challenged Seattle, where it’s currently socked in with clouds... That Sun is up there, somewhere! At least I assume it’s up there - can’t see it at all...;)
