Since the focus is still swine, then I will continue to share what is hidden; Not casting perils before swine is about a nature which can be found within each of us if we do not carefully consider the word of God as food for our soul (does not chew the cud).
We should not cast perils of God's wisdom at the feet of the nature of a creature that does not carefully consider God's word as food for his or her soul. To cast perils of God's wisdom before a nature found in swine, is to treat the word of God as if it is meaningless and trample the Son of God underfoot. Both ends of that parable is about the person who hears it. All the teaching Jesus gave in the New Testament concerning swine is the fulfillment of understanding, the fulfillment of the law when a person understands it. Perils of wisdom, parable of the lost son, parable of the demon possessed man and more. In the Old Testament it is written that a beautiful woman LACKING DISCERNMENT of the things of God; is like a gold ring in a swine's snout. Why the ears have not heard this shows how difficult it is to teach the hidden language of God. It is hidden because God gave witness and the world did not believe..

If you are asking what is the meaning of the donkey and its foal in this language in which Jesus fulfills a law when He rides the foal of a donkey into Jerusalem and gives His life; I will share it with you. The language is hidden because God gave witness and the world did not believe. Are you interested in hearing the fulfillment of that law within you?

You are getting closer. I do not want to argue your statement. But in favor of your statement I will say that when you were called by the word of God to come and be counted in the census of His people, He has treated you as one of His own. It is written that Jesus rode lowly on the foal of a donkey as He entered Jerusalem. The law reads; The sacrifice of a lamb to redeem the foal of a donkey. The Lamb of God you understand. The sacrifice of the Lamb you understand its purpose. To redeem, you understand. But what remains hidden I am willing to give witness to anyone who says they are interested. The sacrifice of a lamb to redeem the foal of a donkey, is about what Jesus did for you. What is the meaning of the foal of the donkey?
It's pearls before swine. Not perils before swine.
Furthermore, I would wonder if you are known as AlephBet? Someone who use to post at another forum where I lurked for awhile and spoke the way you do about secret knowledge etc... in scriptures.
In any case, it is a mistake to think the pig is a filthy animal. They are not. And as such since God knows that and that they are intelligent animals as well, I'd think it better to project hidden messages behind the use of swine and other such animals in the Bible rather gently.

and just why would anyone actually care to understand your own delimna? JESUS did a lot of things that are considered 'unclean' by today's standards, like spitting on the ground, making the spittle and the dirt a paste and putting it over the eyelids of a blind person, just for starters..so what is your point?

You have assumed that the nature of a creature that doesn't carefully consider the word of God is desired by God. How can God desire someone who will not abide in Him? Good@spell checking. Thank you, "A beautiful woman lacking discernment of the things of God is like a gold ring in a swine's snout." I'm not sure why you would be interested in this picture of yourself.

I am appalled at the resistance to get into God's box. He has methods and purpose.
Jesus LOVED storytelling involving types and anti-types.
"master,explain to us the parable"
Jesus;;"this means this,that is this,the weeds represent that.......and on and on.
The depth and understanding of heaven is futile w/o the types,shadows,fore funners and anti-types

I have to start with the nature first ( a matter of Law). The donkey is trained to be a servant (so are you). The donkey chews the cud, carefully considering it's food (so do you also carefully consider the word of God as food for your soul. The donkey is the least of the servants( so are you when the stronger are considered like the Apostles) There is greater strength in Oxen and horses. (all of this is part of the hidden language). Who ever sits in the seat of authority is the teacher/ruler. Remember the evil prophet who beat the donkey to go where the evil prophet should not have wanted to go? The angel stood in the way. In the New Testament the donkey and its foal were loosed (a sign of having been a servant) and Jesus was set on the donkey, a donkey's foal ( the place of authority in your life. There are two more parts to you. Put your left hand in front of you and shake it. Just do it, you'll see. What you just saw was the servant part of you (flesh) that does everything you ask it to do. The direction of your life changes when the authority of Christ is your teacher/ruler. One more part yet to consider, and this is very important. The foal. When you were born again, a child of God can be found within you. Many questions are answered with this law. The law reads, the sacrifice of a lamb to redeem the FOAL of the donkey. Jesus cannot take one with out also taking the other, but only the child (foal) is redeemed by the Lamb of God. There is parable language that states jesus rode 'them' into Jerusalem and gave His life. The wording is correct and is the fulfillment of the words of a prophet. But Law clearly states only the foal can be redeemed. Please be careful with this. This law is personally fulfilled in you the Day you repented of your sins and Jesus became your teacher.
