Re: When was Yahushua crucified Part 2

I like how people can appeal to one section of text (in your case here, Mark 9:31), and then when another section of text contradicts their belief, that section then "has too many errors" in it: how do you know it's not the part that you appeal to that contains the error? Or perhaps (in th...

Re: When was Yahushua crucified Part 2

The Messiah doesn't state that He would be "in the grave" for three days and three nights (nor did he say that He would be dead for three days and three nights). The "heart of the land" does not equal/mean/indicate being dead/in the grave. The four eyewitness accounts all agree t...

Re: Heir to the throne of David

I have read parts of the Talmud, but didn't feel the need to waste my time reading much more of it.

Where in the Tanakh is a Levite prohibited from marrying outside of his clan?

Re: Was Paul a lawbreaker Part 3

Actually, Paul never said that "All things are lawful". The first verse to use this phrase verse is 1 Corinthians 6:12; but here's the rub: Paul is quoting the Corinthian's letter to him, not *actually* Paul saying that "all things are lawful" (I prefer to translate it as "p...

Re: Heir to the throne of David

I honestly can't think of a place in the Tanakh where such a thing happened. Pretty sure they either had several wives and kids, or died childless (or had themselves and their entire family slaughtered, but hey). I also don't think there are any laws regarding what happens if an Israeli King only ha...

Re: Circumcision only related to owning the land?

Hi, SeekingYah: TWTY-Admin, you have commented several times that circumcision is only related to living in the land. I cannot see how you have come to this conclusion. Abram was given possession of the land well before circumcision was ever mentioned. I’ve already pointed out the mentioning of poss...

Re: Circumcision Questions

Officiating in the Temple (as per Ezekiel's "uncircumcised in heart and in flesh") is not tantamount to "entering Yahuweh's home". Especially as, you know, after the 1000 years, the Temple will no longer be a physical place: And I saw no temple in the city, for its temple is Yahu...

Re: Questioning Paul Review - A look at the Galatians text

Hi Son of Yah, I will certainly go through QP again once the re-write has been completed and uploaded. I guess I'll have to halt the critique of the Hebrew translations until then as well, as well as for the other Greek verses that had yet to be sorted through. Saying that, I'm not expecting much.

Re: How would you like a general purpose bible to be divided

Well, it all comes down to your own personal preference - if it's a general Bible for general readers, are they really going to understand the Toledoth groupings in Genesis (2:4-4:26; 5:1-6:8; 6:9-9:20; 10:1-11:9; 11:10-11:26; 11:27-25:11; 25:12-25:19; 25:19-35:29; 36:1-37:1; 37:2-50:26)? I don't kn...

Re: How would you like a general purpose bible to be divided

Well, how I like a "Bible" formatted is how I have them on TWTY: Verses to the side (so as to not mess with the core text so that people can't take verses out of context); Headings and chapters also to the side (same principle as with the verses); and basically, anything that isn't the mai...

Re: First-Fruits the Third Day?

This is where being able to check the Hebrew is extremely beneficial :) Despite the fact that both Leviticus 23:10 and Numbers 28:26 refer to "firstfruits" - they both use two different Hebrew words! Leviticus 23:10 uses רֵאשִׁית/re'shiyth to refer to "firstfruits"; whereas Numbe...

Re: YWHW rendered in oldest LXX?

It is certainly true that Yahuweh is rendered as YHWH in the Oldest Greek Manuscripts - not only in Hebrew letters, but Paleo-Hebrew letters!

Well, I personally have no idea what a "Shaliach" is.

I also couldn't find the word listed in Scripture either.
