TIMELINE OF THE WORLD/LITERATURE
The book: The Bible
NEXT UP: Ecclesiastes 3
There's a "time for everything" passage reflecting on divine sovereignty over life's fleeting, repetitive cycles. It addresses the tension between orderly divine timing and human struggle, arguing that God sets seasons and ultimate justice, rather than human effort, as the source of meaning.
GOING THROUGH THE YEARS OF FILM/EARLY 20th CENTURY WORLD EVENTS
Today's film: Leaves From Stan's Book: 3rd Section (1921)
Before he's taken to the gulags, the Count de Chambord entrusts his servant Joseph to safely escort his wife and daughter, Genevive, to Paris. Once in the city, Joseph crosses paths with Erneste Durand (Satan himself), who introduces him to his political circle. Satan manipulates events to force Joseph into a corner: to save his own life, the young servant must betray his noble masters and abandon his loyalty. Ultimately, Joseph has the opportunity to save Queen Marie Antoinette from her execution at the guillotine. However, as a direct result of Satan's manipulations and temptations (which prey on Joseph's quick temper and personal misdeeds) Joseph abandons the plan, allowing the Queen to meet her fate and sealing his own doom. ETERNAL DAMNATION!
At the end it seems that Satan is remorseful until once more he hears "the voice from above" badgering him to "continue thy evil doings"! Like yo, Satan's over here SEEMINGLY really not trying to be about that life. It would seem like he's willing to give up evil which would mean sparing lives in the process but "the voice from above" is insistent. That form of action begs the question of who's really the evildoer. Shouldn't "TVFM" be combating Satan's evil doings? I'm not sure I follow here.
