["Read, James C" <K0434995 AT kingston.ac.uk>]

Hi George,

The greeater context shows that Moses was afraid to speak and that Aaron was 
appointed as his prophet while 
Moses acted as The God. Yah told Moses what to say and in turn Moses told 
Aaron what to say. 
I find it very surprising that you are a supporter of euphemisms such as feet 
meaning Moshe's nads while at 
the same time insisting on taking subjects and objects to be understood so 
strictly and literally.

Is there any evidence what-so-ever within the Tanakh to support the idea that 
angels have no free will?
And that they are created to fulfill a purpose and that they die once they 
have fulfilled this purpose?

We see that Yah's purpose for Adam and Eve was to have lots of kids and fill 
the earth and not to eat 
a certain fruit. They didn't fulfill this purpose but acted on their own free 
will. Even the animals 
have their own free will and seem to do as they please. Why would lowly 
animals have the gift of free 
will and glorious cherubim not?

Huh??? For years I had no trouble understanding the verse 
without making such an off the wall assumption.

Enoch was and is not authoritative.

Neither am I ready to argue the subject to the ground. I 
was just curious where you got such a strange idea. The 
answer, at least as I understand your response, is from an 
overactive imagination. At least, there is no textual 
evidence for it.
