For those who are into weed
I've been listening to Sean Paul's new song "We Be Burnin" where he says they (the law) should "legalize it".
But what I'm more interested is what he said in the middle of the song:
Quote:
Dat's why herb man dem a di wise one
And it found on di grave of King Solomon
|
Wiki tells me he's making a reference to King Solomon of the Bible since Sean has a Jewish lineage but I have a feeling he is talking about a different King Solomon.
Could you help?

Re: For those who are into weed
it's the same king soloman. the christian old testament was stolen whole sale from the jews.
(and no he didn't smoke cannabis)
EDIT: I can't believe that you don't know all this. didn't you say that you were religious? or was that someone else?

Re: For those who are into weed
just did a quick search on google and got the following extract from here
Quote:
Ganja is also seen by Rastafarians as the herb of life mentioned in the Bible. Rastafarians use of ganja is justified by the following Psalms 104:14 that says, "He causeth the grass to grow for the cattle and herb for the service of man, that he may bring forth food out of the earth." Rastafarians also say it was found growing at the grave of King Solomon in the Bible.

This was the third link when searching for "King Solomon and weed"

The order was changed quite a bit though.
there is a section in the Jewish script for "stories" which were all moved into the bible proper by the christians.
But yeh, it's pretty much the same thing.

Re: For those who are into weed
The jews borrowed large parts of their religious ideas from the mythology of various mesopotamian civilisations.
Blasto, can't help you dude 'cept that song ain't really new.

The song was 3 months old until it hit the radio airwaves last months.

Re: For those who are into weed
He might as well have had weed growing on his grave - its like saying that John the Baptist had a mole on his left butt cheek. Given that these people are entirely defined by what is written about them in the Bible, anything about them that isnt explicitly listed there is indeterminate (and I dont think the Bible talks about pot). Its not like theres anything you could even theoretically appeal to in order to settle the question.
