Mythbusting Moses

Todd Bolen has posted on a subject I was looking into just a couple of weeks ago. I became curious that I could find no biblical reference to the Rope Around the High Priest’s Ankle.

Some one mentioned that in my “Shadow to Reality-Veil” class. And I felt kind of funny acknowledging that because I never found that in any of my studies. Looks like I should trust my instincts more often. If it did say it in there though it might read, “And thou shalt tie a rope woven of golden thread around the ankle of the high priest so that if he suffers a coronary or sprinkles the blood on the wrong side of the Ark, you can drag his body out and not you yourself die.” Nope, that’s not in there.

I don’t recall reading that either, but I’ll double check the Hebrew.
