Series - Ameyn

this series, ameyn, focuses on Biblical figures and their main life failing points. Saul (jealousy), Jezebel (corruption), David (murder and adultery), Absalom (greed of power), and Aaron (doubt in G-D). Ameyn in Hebrew is defined as "so be it," as in the finishing of something, the end, nothing more to be said. i suppose that using this as the series title is a little ironic, because the underlying point in this for me is that these character's failing points are not the last thing to be said. for example in Saul, Jezebel, and Absalom, their failures were their literal last word. however, david and aaron are to be remembered as some of the greatest figures within the entire old testament, and yet their failing points were not any "worse" or "better" than the others.
concluding point? failures do not define your life. you define your life. you decide, whether you realize it or not, when you say "ameyn."

Saul (jealousy)

Jezebel (corruption)

David (murder and adultery)
