Are You Me? The Question Your Brain Asks Every Day Without You Knowing it!

Many years ago, I took a course in Alternative Medicine and the instructor used the example below to explain how our immune system works.

The moment the immune system becomes aware of the presence of an unknown it immediately dispatches T-cells to search for it and intercept it. When they find it they ask one question – Are you me? If the answer is “yes,” they turn around and leave. If the answer is “no” they try to destroy it.

If one [of the judges] says, ‘I have something [more] to say in his favor,’ he [the signaler] waves the sudarin , and the horseman runs and stops them [from stoning him]. Even if [the condemned person] himself says, ‘I have something to say in my favor,’ they bring him back, even four of five times, only provided that there is some substance to...

This meant that it was in the best interest of the Persian state for the formal worship of the god in the kingdom in Judah to continue undisturbed and in accordance with the proper rules of the Torah. However, I seriously doubt the Persian king new anything about how different the Temple in Jerusalem was from other temples.
