Hi Paul,

This appears to exist as the reason I called it a metaphor.

Moses doesn't really have to exist historically for the
point of the metaphor to be instructive. In this scenario,
The tribe is the all-inclusive everyman seeking a Messiah to
lead him out of bondage. The careactoristics one may assign
such a Messiah would necessarily have to emerge from the
qualities one thinks the Messiah aspect of himself would
need to could lead him out of bondage to the
illusion/persona he wishes to be free of.

On a global scale, some era might need a Jewish orphan
(Moses) reared to possess the attributes of a Pharaoh, while
the dictates of another era might need a extraordinary man
of the streets like Jesus. More recently, one might think of
a Gandhi, King, or Mandela. In any case the Messiah must be
created by the Christos/Shakti force... the impeccable,
docetic, naymeless energy that makes manifest the attributes
of a God in human form.
