Eunuch

Contrary to popular belief, and "Christian" teachings, and church doctrine, and widely held public opinion, and televangelist prosphying, there is NO provision in God's Law which prohibits a eunuch from entering the congregation of the LORD.  Thus, when Philip baptized the eunuch, he was NOT violating God's Law as so many "preachers", "pastors", and other religious "leaders" would have us believe:

Act 8:38 And he commanded the chariot to stand still: and they went down both into the water, both Philip and the eunuch; and he baptized him.

So exactly WHAT was the purpose of the following verse written by Isaiah thousands of years ago?:

Isa 56:3 Neither let the son of the stranger, that hath joined himself to the LORD, speak, saying, The LORD hath utterly separated me from his people: neither let the eunuch say, Behold, I am a dry tree.

A eunuch IS a "dry tree", so exactly what is Isaiah getting at here?  Is it at all possible that this a parody?

Isa 56:5 Even unto them will I give in mine house and within my walls a place and a name better than of sons and of daughters: I will give them an everlasting name, that shall not be cut off.

After thousands of years of Scripture which reports that Israelites are "God's holy people", how could Isaiah possibly get the authority to toss it all out and put a eunuch on a higher plane with God than a "ben" or "bath" of   Jacob/Israel?

Of course Isaiah does NOT have authority to toss out God's Law, remake His law, change a single tittle of the Torah, put "nikros" at a higher level than Israelites in the Israelite community, put eunuchs or any other imperfect creation of God in positions of authority and power over Israelites, so this MUST be a parody, eh?
