Comments on: Don’t Touch Me http://biblearchive.com/blog/2008/study/dont-touch-me/ Thoughts from Plymouth Brethren Blogger Rey Reynoso Thu, 10 May 2012 19:35:41 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.2 By: philemon http://biblearchive.com/blog/2008/study/dont-touch-me/comment-page-1/#comment-1211 philemon Tue, 08 Dec 2009 11:05:43 +0000 http://biblearchive.com/blog/2008/study/dont-touch-me/#comment-1211 To me it sounds like Mary was trying to hold on to Jesus in the hope that she too may be saved and transfigured, and Jesus is saying, "I'm not leaving yet! And it's still night, it hasn't been 3 days, the Temple of Soul/Body has been torn down but now it needs to be rebuilt into the Temple of Spirit, and to begin that task I gotta go to the Father first. And I'm not leaving yet so let go of me, and it's not your time to leave anyway because I need you to let my brothers know I will be leaving to the Father. It makes sense that if you touch a pure spirit-being, your physical being could also be transmuted into spirit being. If Spirit is pure Light, this electric energy is greater than any human-harvested electricity (which is a mere image of the source) - and electricity has been found to be able to separate the O (the breath of God) from the H2O (which is what we're mostly made up of)... then perhaps Jesus was warning Mary not to touch him just because it wasn't yet her time to die?

I would think that they'd probably argue post-resurrection since when He went to the grave He died taking the iniquities of sinners but He was raised justified.
