Luke 14: 1, 7-11.

Healing Of The Man With Dropsy On The Sabbath.

On a sabbath he went to dine at the home of one of the leading
Pharisees, and the people there were observing him carefully.

Conduct Of Invited Guests And Hosts.

He told a parable to those who had been invited, noticing how they were
choosing the places of honor at the table. "When you are invited by
someone to a wedding banquet, do not recline at table in the place of
honor. A more distinguished guest than you may have been invited by
him, and the host who invited both of you may approach you and say,
'Give your place to this man,' and then you would proceed with
embarrassment to take the lowest place. Rather, when you are invited,
go and take the lowest place so that when the host comes to you he may
say, 'My friend, move up to a higher position.' Then you will enjoy
the esteem of your companions at the table. For everyone who exalts
himself will be humbled, but the one who humbles himself will be
exalted."

Flopsy died 3 days (2 if you use human arithmetic) before Oestre's
Day.

I don't see your problem here, padre. As the passage indicates, the only
"penalty" for refusing to be humble is a bit of embarrassment.

Be humble, for the worst thing in the world is of the same stuff as you;
be confident, for the stars are of the same stuff as you.

Nope. No mention of any healings in the verses you copied.

Better luck next time, padre.

That's quite an appropriate bit of symbolism there, padre. Do you have
an invite to post your tripe? Or are you simply the self appointed
hypocrite?

Josef

It makes sense. But too many jews act in that phony Uriah Heep type of
humbleness.
