FUTURE  KNOWLEDGE?

Rabbi Moshe Ben-Chaim

Pharaoh’s astrologers continued their attempts to protect their positions. Advisors like them must continue to show their king value. Thus, not offering news regularly, they lose value. This is why they continued to offer forecasts of a “savior”, and then later added that this savior was “born today.” By advancing their predictions, they sustained their value to Pharaoh, thereby protecting their posts. People in political positions don’t get there by accident…they desire power and strove to attain positions.  Man cannot know the future, as human knowledge is observational knowledge, and the future is not yet in existence to observe. The astrologers were liars.
