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...
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...
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...
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...
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...
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...
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. B...
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...
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...
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...
Well several of the manuscripts from the Dead Sea have YHWH in Paleo-Hebrew letters in the midst of Babylonian Hebrew text (although I can't remember which ones exactly from the top of my head), and the curious manuscript 4QSam c ( 4Q53 Samuel ) uses four large dots • • • • in place of YHWH in its t...
Hi Theo - I go through this in detail in two of my blog postings: Acts 20:7: Did they really meet on a Sunday? ; and Yahuweh’s Feasts: Fixing the dates Part 1 These are then discussed in the two following topics: Topic 1 | Topic 2 If you have any further questions after reading the following, let us...
SeekingYah's (welcome, btw! :)) last statement pretty much nailed it on the head: "Furthermore, even if it were, the Scriptural evidence still seems to support it" - this, I think, being the main thing that we should be seeking to understand: what does Scripture (and therefore Yahuweh Hims...
