If Ex. 22 is significant...

[Sfonzarelli]

...than maybe "Moses armed the evil priest" with th moral arsenal to bring harm upon Bree. As someone pointed out, Ex. 22 contains the lines "Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live." and " Whosoever lieth with a beast shall surely be put to death". Bree is certainly the former, and if "a beast" in this case is "the beast', and if she has genuinely broken a "purity vow", perhaps she is guilty of the latter.

Perhaps "Moses" or "the evil priest" is not Bree's Dad or other members of her religion, (and perhaps my somewhat tongue-in-cheek suggestion that Cassie was proposing an anti-Semitic conspriacy theory was just as much of a desperate stretch as those other suggestions) but Cassie. She quotes the Bible, she thinks Bree's ceremony is a virgin sacrifice, (either it isn't, or the creators have done little research or are being fatuous or both) maybe Cassie is a radical Christian. It could explain her and Bree's falling out. Maybe she was a member of Bree's "cult" and was "deprogrammed". (The scarequotes indicate my cynical bias towards that perspective) Now she's out to punish Bree or save her or both.

That's what I was getting at earlier. I think this is definitely a possiblity. And it would definitely be an interesting twist.

I agree that this may be a plausible sotryline, and that Cassie is out to get Bree.

I'm still bothered by the fact tha CiW is not oficially tied to LG15, how will it play out in the end if the plot remains separate.

I read on another thread that someone had the idea of "Moses armed the evil priest" being a reference to Bree's father and his bibliomancy. Now, at one point she says that he won't be at the ceremony, but doesn't she also mention that he *will* be doing the bibliomancy? If this is before the ceremony, it could still be a plausible reference to her father, if he is in fact a practioner of bibliomancy. This could take place before Bree leaves for the ceremony, where possibly a "high priest" (or just another, different priest) would perform the ceremony, whatever it may be.

He does the Bibliomancy at the Equinox celebrations, not this ceremony, whatever it is.

My guess is that the reference is to the Bible passage, hence mentioning Moses.

On the "Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live." part...."Daniel" means "God is my judge" in Hebrew.


Just food for thought.
