Abrogate *are* all rituals
-
Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the law.
"Abrogate are all rituals, all ordeals, all words and signs..." - L I:49
In the original writing of the Book the words "Abrogate all rituals, all ordeals, all words and signs..." are what was dictated to A.C. by Aiwass - & in face of the warning to "Change not as much as the style of a letter" he decided to insert the word 'are' between Abrogate & rituals, completely altering the meaning of the verse.
Does anyone have any thoughts on the reasoning behind this addition to the text?
Love is the law, love under will.

Does it really? Maybe it changes it from a command to a statement of fact, but the basic idea seems the same to me. As of April 10, 1904, the rituals, ordeals, words, and signs were all changed to "TBD."

"It looks like the word "are" was added during dictation rather than afterwards. The scribe probably skipped a word while he was writing (an easy enough mistake to make when you are writing from dictation) and corrected it on the fly."
93 gmgmble,
That is my hope as well...it is my fear that the addition of "are" may be of a situation similar to the 'L vs AL' debate.
