So….I totally never thought about this. I’m sure very few of you have. I don’t know about you, but I’m a bit disturbed…

[maganayakare]

Wow. Food for thought. I’m sure there’s an answer though.

Their names were translated/Anglicized after going from Greek to English.

The names of the Apostles are of Greek, Aramaic and Hebrew origins. The Hebrew, Aramaic and “Greek” named Apostles were: Shim’on = Simon (Hebrew origin). Y’hochanan = John (Hebrew origin). Mattithyahu = Matthew (Hebrew origin). Ya’aqov = James (Hebrew origin meaning Jacob). Bar-Tôlmay = Bartholomew (Aramaic, which is related to Hebrew). Judah = Jude / Saint Jude (not to be confused with Judas Iscariot, Hebrew origin). Yehuda = Judas Iscariot (Hebrew origin, Betrayed Yeshua/Yehosua the Messiah). Cephas / Kephas = Peter (Hebrew / Aramaic origin meaning “Rock”). Tau’ma = Thomas (Aramaic origin). Andrew = Andrew (Greek origin. Is the brother of Cephas / Kephas). Phillip = Phillip (Greek origin). You will note that there are only 11 names, that is because there were 2 Apostles named Ya’aqov (James), which brings the total to 12 apostles.

To expand on this, Jesus’s name is Anglicized in this way as well. We get Jesus from the Latin form of the Greek “Ἰησοῦς”(Iēsous), which is derived from the Herbrew “ישוע”(Yeshu’a, which meant “YHWH is Salvaion”, YHWH, or Yahweh being the name of God). When another form of that name, ” יְהוֹשֻׁעַ”(Yeoshu’a) was allowed to Anglicize through a different set of corruptions, it entered the English Language through Reformist Protestants as the name “Joshua”. Yes. Jesus’s actual name is Joshua.

But mostly fear. Fear that my marriage was ending and that I would be alone. And I was terrified of that.

Holy shit, someone’s doing a robocall campaign in Alabama which leaves the message:

“Hi, this is Bernie Bernstein [wonder why they chose that name], I’m a reporter for The Washington Post calling to find out if anyone at this address is a female between the ages of 54 to 57 years old willing to make damaging remarks about candidate Roy Moore for a reward of between $5,000 and $7,000 dollars. We will not be fully investigating these claims; however, we will make a written report. I can be reached by email at [fake email address], thank you.”

With the purpose of discrediting reporting on Moore’s pedophilia.

[klar425-deactivated20220609]

WOW. I HATE THIS.

[americanfrontier]

oh and when i was a year old, after i got my foot amputated my parents were pushing me around in a stroller at a street festival in miami and i was chewing on my foot or whatever and this street performer came up to us and was like “aw i bet that tastes good!!” and my dad was like “yeah look at what she did to the other one!!!!” and pulled back the blanket covering my left leg to show a stump with a huge scar on it and i’m pretty sure my dad terrified that poor man

[memehumor]

Medium rare for me.

[southsidesweetpea]

in all the craziness of last night’s ep, i think it’s important to note that the Sugarman storyline did in fact confirm that Jingle Jangle only hit the streets AFTER Clifford’s death. this is important because it means that the writers are not trying to pass bales of heroin off as Jingle fucking Jangle, for which i am eternally grateful.

[stillscape]

I have a question about this, which is: Didn’t Clifford Blossom die, like, four weeks ago? How bad can the jingle jangle epidemic possibly be? 

[maltedchocolatemilkshakes]

i’ve definitively given up on trying to make sense of Riverdale’s calendar, the official description of which follows not the ‘Four Seasons’ pattern or the ‘Gregorian Calendar’, but the more rare ‘Windmill Method’, which goes as follows: Like a circle in a spiral, Like a wheel within a wheel, Never ending or beginning, On an ever-spinning reel.

This has a nice symbiotic relationship with all the drugs, you can imagine.

[stillscape]

@maltedchocolatemilkshakes: this explains, perhaps, why the fancy hotel is called the Five Seasons?

…and why the hospital exists in the 1950s, why even the rich high school is in 1998, why the cars are all older than the children, why Fred Andrews has the television that he has…

[maltedchocolatemilkshakes]

Since you can always rely on me to bring the angst to the party…

Someone correct me if i’m wrong (and this is tumblr, doubtless thousands will!) but isn’t Dante’s version of Hell shaped like an ever narrowing spiral? With each level dedicated to a different sin/sinner? Couldn’t we posit that Riverdale is some sort of metaphorically conch-shaped object, with different levels of time/space existing at once?

Like a clock whose hands are sweeping Past the minutes of its face

ooh… there’s that liminal clock again…

[soyforramen]

It is!  Well, not a spiral, exactly, more like a circle within a circle, but I vaguely remember there was a way to get between them. Which would correlate nicely to the “Abandon hope all ye who enter” throwaway line Jughead did when they went to Pop’s Ep 1.  And I actually… really like this idea?  

[onceuponamirror]
