The King’s Dainties.

In Roman cultures, kings and emperors would throw elaborate banquets, often trying to outdo each other with their exotic dishes.

It is reported that

They ate ostrich brains, peacocks, dolphin meatballs, herons, goat feet, peacock brains, boiled parrot, flamingo tongues and orioles. They liked watching birds fly out of featured dishes and ate an electric fish because “it was fascinating.” Sometimes a calf was cooked up with a pig inside it and inside the pig were a lamb, a chicken, a rabbit and a mouse. The Roman Emperor Elagabalus once ordered 600 ostriches killed so his cooks could make him ostrich-brain pies. [1]

This is just a sample of what the Proverbs speaks of when it talks about the king’s “dainties.” The Bible says it is deceptive food. The remedy? Continue reading “The King’s Food Rejected by Jewish Refugees” →

Famous Doctor Goes Insane After Cadaver Kills New Mother

Posted on by Mischelle Sandowich

This Is A True Story.

Ignaz Philipp Semmelweis was a Hungarian-Austrian physician who made an amazing discovery in 1847 while head of the Maternity Department of the Vienna General Hospital.

Death Clinics.

The Vienna General Hospital had two maternity clinics. One of the clinics had a death rate of one out of every eight new mothers due to a postpartum infection, known as puerperal fever, alternately “childbed fever.” The second obstetrical clinic had a much lower postpartum death rate – one out of 64 new mothers died from the same infection.The death rates of the two Continue reading “Famous Doctor Goes Insane After Cadaver Kills New Mother” →

The Food That Sanctified an Entire Nation

The Food That Sanctified an Entire Nation

The Food that Sanctified an Entire NationWords Evolve.

My husband and I are nearly 20 years apart in age, so we were raised in different generations. He came of age in the 60’s; I came of age in the 80’s. In the twenty years in between, language had changed a bit. There was a time when the word awesome meant full of awe and fearful. But in my generation awesome took on a totally different meaning, namely cool.

My husband’s generation might have called something “awesome” or “cool,” groovy. The millennial generation might think groovy refers to something with a lots of grooves, like the edge of a quarter.

Defining Terms.

For the purpose of communication it is always good to clarify terms so everyone is on the same page. So when I talk about food that sanctified an entire nation, I don’t mean the food made the nation “holy.” What I do mean by sanctified is “set apart.”

We see a microcosm of this today, especially around the holidays. Everyone has their favorite ethnic Continue reading “The Food That Sanctified an Entire Nation” →

The Stew That Set Two Nations At War

The Stew that Set Two Nations at War

Posted on by Mischelle Sandowich

The Stew That Set 2 Nations at WarWhat would you give for a hot savory stew after a hard day’s work in the chilly autumn air?

I don’t know about you, but I’d probably give up to $12.00 if it were organic, $8.00 if it were not.

A Foolish Trade.

However, I would not give up my house, my family, my faith, or my inheritance for a single serving of pottage — even if I were famished. One bowl of stew would not sustain me for more than a few days, even if I was starving. Such a sacrifice would not be wise, but rather foolish.

And this was the very choice that Esau made.

The First Born Son. 

Esau was the firstborn son to the patriarch Isaac. To him was the right of firstborn, the double inheritance, and the family blessing. This was a great honor which was closely tied to the covenant made to Continue reading “The Stew that Set Two Nations at War” →

The Food That Could Have Saved The Human Race

The Food that Could Have Saved the Human Race

Posted on by Mischelle Sandowich

The Bible declares that after Adam ate from the tree of knowledge, it was necessary to bar him from eating of the tree of life. God therefore kicked Adam and his posterity out of the garden never to return, guarding it with Cherubim — specifically so they would not eat of the food growing on the tree of life.
