Does God really hate dogs?

SOMEONE ONCE SENT AN EMAIL TO MY WEBSITE TO INFORM ME THAT GOD HATES DOGS - and as "proof" he provided Matthew 7:6 and Revelation 22:15...

I was left speechless over that ridiculous train of thought, but it also made me realize how easily Scripture can be misunderstood, taken out of context and downright twisted (which explains why there are some 50,000 different Christian denominations, and myriad Hebrew Roots and Messianic sects, each believing themselves to have cornered the market on ADONAI's Truth.

And so, to help weed through the Greek and/or other "interpretations" of the Word, I decided to write this short explanation of the context of those two passages from the Hebrew viewpoint:

Matthew 7: 6. You should not hang earrings on dogs and you should not place your pearls before pigs that they should not trample them by their feet and they overtake and wound you. (AENT)

Revelation 22:15. Without (will be) dogs and sorcerers, and whoremongers and manslayers and idolaters, and everyone that loves and does falsehood. (AENT)

The word “tithlon” (hang) was misunderstood as “talon” (to give); “qudesha” (earrings) was misunderstood as qudsha (holy). The picture of hanging earrings on dogs dovetails with giving pearls to pigs, and the symbolism of the two animal groups could not be clearer, as dogs represent apostate Jews, and the pigs, apostate Gentiles who are ignorant of YHWH and His Torah.

Either way, the lesson here is do not give what is precious to those who will not appreciate the value. It's got nothing, whatsoever, to do with God "hating dogs"....

THE MORAL OF THIS LITTLE ARTICLE IS:

Be very careful about whom you choose to believe, as there are many opinionated people "out there" making wild accusations on things about which they know absolutely nothing.

...And yes, they ARE ready, willing and able to take their "truth" and trample you to death with it, tearing you to pieces verbally ... all while believing themselves to be doing God's Work.
