[Each member of the tribe of Israel, is expected to choose2b YHWH, thus revealing “his” values1b.
But the challenge does not stop there.
Every child of Abraham, upon hearing the stories in Genesis, is called to ‘something2a’ that reveals “his” desires1a.
Without this ‘something2a’, the vessel of “his” values2b stands empty.]
[Perhaps, the stories of Abraham were woven into a coherent narrative by the bards of Israel. They entered into the thought experiment for the tribes of Israel.
The thought experiment asks whether the children of Abraham not only value1b (thereby choose) God, but desire1a God as well.
YHWH is located as the something2a that reveals the desire1a of the tribes of Israel.]

[What is this mirror3a that I am obligated to engage whenever ‘I choose something’?
It is a source of reflectivity that I always seem to ignore.
It reflects the perspective level, the Zeitgiest, in a highly personal manner.]
[So I pray (or think about it).
The interscope becomes an intersection.
The non-contemplative acts.
The contemplative prays.]
[Now, I want to go one step deeper.
What is this thought experiment3a that brings something (some content)2a into relation with the potential inherent in me1a?
If I only consider the actuality of something2a, then neither the thought experiment3a nor the potential of me1a are apparent.
They become apparent in the interscope.]

[At this time, thinkdivine clearly broadcasts into the thought experiment.
One Triune God illuminates the mirror of the world when our delusional clouds temporary give way to clear skies.]
[Thinkgroup or me change.
It breaks my heart.
Is this only time when I experience my heart?
The living heart is always on fire.
The heart is always trying to resolve its contradictions.]
