Bible For Moderns on Parashat Bo - The Daily Rationing of Manna and Government Handouts ๐Ÿงต

In Parshat Beshalach, God rains down manna โ€“ bread from heaven โ€“ for the Israelites:

If you are wondering what manna is, you are not alone! /1 โ€œWhen the Israelites saw it, they said to one another, โ€œWhat is it?โ€ โ€”for they did not know what it was!โ€ (Exodus 16:15)

To try to understand where M&A market is headed after this current down market in tech, I find it useful to look at $CSCO M&A history leading up to 2001 and after. ๐Ÿงต

Until 1999, almost all of Cisco's acquisitions were in low 9 digits. Exception is Stratacom ($4Bn) in 1996 /1๐Ÿ‘‡ in 1999 alone as the market heated up (like 2020-2021), Cisco made over $15Bn of acquisitions, including 4 acquisitions over $2Bn. Even the 9 digit deals were larger than in the previous period with many in the mid 9 digits. /2๐Ÿ‘‡

Forefather Isaac the entrepreneur and the Hebrew word: "La'suach" - ืœึธืฉื‚ื•ึผื—ึท ๐Ÿงต What I want to focus on is how Isaac the forefather became wealthy and how a different understanding of a Hebrew word will yield different causes for Isaac's wealth. But before getting to the English translation, we first need to understand stock markets and the real economy./2

Why read the Bible in Hebrew? A thread on the Bible & the future of capitalism. h/t @AriLamm.

This week we will read about covenant - BRIT. The weekly portion is called Nitzavim based on the root: NTZV.

It's translated as "You stand this day" but that misses the point. ๐Ÿงต "Stand" can also be ืขืžื“. From the root AMD. The specific use of "Nitzavim" from the root NTZV is not accidental.

The Bible continues that the purpose of NTZV (standing) is:
"to enter into the covenant of your God ื™ื”ื•ื”, which your God ื™ื”ื•ื” is concluding with you this day," 2

Dear @BillAckman - As one investor to another, I am sure you do Due Diligence before investing in a company or a stock. It is the least you can do before giving advice on foreign policy or weapons.

There is one proximate cause to the pickle that Israel is in now: @BarackObama ๐Ÿ‘‡ When Obama was president, he set up a red line to a ruthless dictator, Assad, and then did nothing when the red line was more like Swiss cheese. I assume you know this. After all, you were an Obama donor.

Russia jumped in & now Russia & Russian weapons sit on Israel's border.๐Ÿ‘‡
