Now, it's unfortunate that in the betrayal of this whole scene in "Jesus Christ, Superstar" they try to make Jesus a very lavish kind of a person, living in opulence, no care for the poor. This he said, not that he cared for the poor but because he was a thief, and he held the purse, and he was stealing out of the money in the purse ( John 12:6 ). So you've got almost a year's wages involved here that this perfume could have been sold for. A pence was a day's wage for a laboring man. Then said one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, who would betray him, Why didn't they sell this perfume for three hundred pence, and given the money to the poor? ( John 12:4-5 )Īctually, it was very expensive. Martha, busy serving Mary, busy worshipping. God has built into our characters these very qualities. Typical of Mary, worshipping Martha, takes all types. Then took Mary a pound of ointment of spikenard, very expensive, and anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped his feet with her hair: and the house was filled with the aroma of the ointment ( John 12:1-3 ). They made him a supper and Martha served : but Lazarus was one of them that sat at the table with him. Then Jesus six days before the passover came to Bethany, where Lazarus was which had been dead, whom he had raised from the dead. But in the day of judgment those same words would be a witness for the condemnation of those who rejected them ( John 12:47-50). Jesus came to save people, not to condemn them, and the words he spoke were the words of God. In his final words to the crowd, Jesus explained that to believe in him was to believe in God to reject him was to reject God ( John 12:44-46). Any who believed in him were afraid to say so openly, for fear of being put out of the synagogue ( John 12:37-43). Most of the Jewish people were stubborn in their unbelief, as Isaiah had prophesied. Otherwise the darkness would come upon them and they would be lost eternally ( John 12:34-36). Jesus had no more time to reason with them, but urged them to believe in him immediately and so walk in the light while he was still on earth. He spoke of himself as ‘the Son of man’, but if he used this expression to mean ‘the Messiah’, how could the Messiah die on the cross? They thought the Messiah would live for ever. The people were puzzled at Jesus’ statement. Through Jesus’ crucifixion, people of all nations would be delivered from Satan’s power and brought into the liberty of the kingdom of God ( John 12:30-33). As the startled onlookers were wondering what they had heard, Jesus told them that the time for Satan’s defeat was approaching. He prayed that through his death he would glorify his Father, and his Father responded in a voice from heaven that the prayer would be answered ( John 12:27-29). Jesus trembled as he thought of the suffering that awaited him, but he was determined to finish the work he had come to do. Final message to the Jews ( John 12:27-50 ) It’s not far fleshed out, but if people are for some reason interested in hearing more I have a lot of ideas for potential new talents and changes to go with what I’ve given above.137. Just a few things that has been on my mind since reading some of the proposed 10.1 changes. Mindspike, Mind Blast, and instant cast procsĪoE and Cleave via Mindbender and Psychic LinkĪ talent build revolving around Void Eruption would have a more ability-heavy kit with higher actions-per-minute and a reduced need for DoT maintenance by reducing the Cooldown of Shadow Crash to 15 seconds. Each 25 Insanity spent during Voidform increases its duration by 1.0 sec. While remaining in Voidform, Surge of Darkness and Shadowy Insight trigger 100% more often. Twists your Shadowform with the powers of the Void, increasing spell damage you deal and insanity you generate by 25%. Mind Flay, Mind Flay: Insanity, Void TorrentĪoE and Cleave via Mind Sear and DoT buffingĪ talent build revolving around Dark Ascension would have a heavier emphasis on DoT management, channeled casting, and buff uptime. Increases the duration of all existing periodic effects by 12 seconds. While activated, this spell is replaced by Void Torrent. Eįor the next 20 seconds, all periodic damage dealt is increased by 25%, deal damage 80% faster, and you are able to cast all channeled spells while moving. The goal is to preserve a lot of what people enjoy, and smooth out some of the frustrations people currently have. I see the Shadow Priest talents having two distinct builds, and by reworking Void Eruption and Dark Ascension a bit, I think they can serve as a solid fundamental core that the rest of the Shadow Priest kit can build on. A possible way of solving existing issues while retaining a lot of what works could be done by emphasizing current talent build identities and pruning the extra abilities/nodes that don’t add to Shadow Priest gameplay in any substantially intuitive way.
