Even if you explained it to them they would still deny.
But as for me ... Psalm 73:2
Their Gentile brother Riphath along with their uncle Javan’s descendants settled in Greece.
The "Pelasgians" is the name generally given by ancient writers to the peoples before the Hellenes. According to both Herodotus and Thucyclides, Pelasgians formed the largest element of the early population of Greece and the Aegean, and most of them were gradually assimilated by the Hellenes. Herodotus saw this transformation as following the invasion by Danaos (the Egyptian), which he took to be around the middle of the second millennium B.C. Herodotus stated that the Egyptian Danaids taught the Pelasgians (not the Hellenes) the worship of the gods." The idea that the Pelasgians were the native population, converted to something more "Greek" by the invading Egyptians, also occurs in the plays of Aischylos and Euripides, written around the same time as Herodotus' Histories.
The Ionians were one of the two great tribes of Greece, the other being the Dorians as was Thucyclides as he stated was of the Dorian past.
If you cannot understand why the temple veil was torn and the old covenant terminated for Colossians 3:11 is just one of the steps seen unless
the seal remains in them in darkness which is His will as I was told. The four faces at the throne explains it better than myself.
Many commentators have described how the four living creatures carry a symbolic component that is found in each of the four Gospels.
Synoptic middle of the road thought will suffice for the pericopic tradition.
No accidents exists.
It is a dreadful thing when God gives men up to judicial blindness—when He permits the veil which they have woven to abide over their
minds, “that seeing they might not see and hearing they might not understand.”
As I told you in the reading, the veil was literally on Moses’ face, but spiritually it was on their hearts. From that
time on they were not to see because they had not wished to see. He that willfully shuts his eyes will find that God takes
away his sight. If you refuse to understand, justice will make you foolish. The shadow of destruction is insensibility. The
eyes are blindfolded before the fatal volley is fired. The practical warning I would earnestly apply. Do you not think we
have a great many people around us—may we not belong to them ourselves?—whose foolish hearts are blinded so that
the light of the Glory of God in the face of Christ is veiled from them?

I know nothing today but what was given.
