“Anne Sunnucks writes that there is evidence from the literature of the period that dice were used to play chess in Europe between the 11th and 14th centuries, and even earlier in Burma and India. The dice were thrown before each turn to determine the piece to be moved; the same numbering system as set forth above was used (1=pawn, 2=knight, etc.).[3] In the Burmese form of the game, three dice were thrown and each player made three moves at a time.” — Dice chess - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

“Originally, the promise of priesthood was given to the entire Israelite nation, not the Levite tribe alone. The Lord is recorded as saying in Exodus 19:6 ‘you shall be to me a kingdom of priests and a holy nation,’ a verse that should be well known to all Jews today. At this time there were no Levite priests. The promise was made to the whole ‘house of Jacob,’ i.e., the entire nation of Israel, v. 3. Therefore, Israel – all Israel – through the first born male of each family was to become a kingdom of priests and a holy nation.” — The Portrayal and Acsension of the Immortal Soul or Spirit

“The Hebrews originally had “judges” not kings. They instituted kings while they were trying to conquer southern Phoenicia because they saw that the Phoenicians and Philistines (Palestinians) were more effective in battle as they had kings who provided strong central leadership.” — timBoucher » Jachin and Boaz
