The way of an Eagle in the air


Is saw two of these yesterday at might be breeding time.

Photos care of Wikipedia.

Do you ever wonder why Eagles are so reveared and vultures so despised?
You are what you eat they reckon.
Eagles prefer fresh meat they have killed themselves (but they aren't above scavenging either) vultures lacking the dexterity for hunting are forced to lurk always and steal what they can of the kills of others, or be first on the scene of a natural death. Both are unclean to eat since both eat carrion.
But if you say your thanks and your really hungry go for it.
Also unloved by Jews are crustetions and other 'bottom feeders' why because they feed of the waste product ( they can be rich in heavy metals which are toxic to human consumption) of others is my guess? Who knows but this is generally true the better the quality of the food the animal eats the more tasty they are to eat themselves. The Old Testament food laws make sense. Pigs eat carrion and are cannabilistic and so on. 
Laws are created for the good of mankind to be his servant. But as with all other good things man ends up falling foul of law and becoming a slave to it.
Eagles have long been a symbol of justice and good.
One day we shall rise up on wings of eagles and defy gravity because our eternal bodies shall have no mass. They will be able to travel into heavenly realms, and pass though locked doors. In those days we shall be rulers over things on earth we will be agents of the justice of the Most High! His glory will go before us, and His righteousness shall be our rearguard! 
Will we ever cease from praising The Lord of hosts that makes all these things possible!
