Re: Is this version for real?

This is just another one of the discrepancies between the synoptic eye-witness accounts, so really isn't that important. Although it probably doesn't help that in the discussion on this Passover meal in 1 Corinthians 11:23-34, it repeats the first 17 words of Luke 22:20 word for word in v25, althoug...

Re: Is this version for real?

There are two early manuscripts that contain Matt. 26:28: Papyrus 37 (240CE), and Papyrus 45 (210CE), neither of which contain Kainos in the verse. Later manuscripts have obviously interpolated kainos into Matt. 26:28 from Luke 22:20, which does contain kainos in the same speech as that seen in Matt...

Re: Circumcision Questions

Well technically, we can't observe the feasts as Yahweh instructs Yisra'el in the Torah. Knowing that fact, does that mean no one can have a relationship with Yah, as following the feast instructions are literally impossible? To bring this back to the discussion on circumcision, I still haven't yet ...

Re: Circumcision Questions

We could probably add onto that a long list of uncircumcised persons from pre-Abrahamic times. Thanks for point that out Noel - I had forgotten that it was a while before Abraham was circumcised after he came to have a relationship with Yah. Really, it was only until Abraham having a son came into i...

Re: The End of the World

Well, it's now gone 18:30 GMT/UTC. EST is UTC -5, so we've still got about 4 1/2 hours left to wait until we truly "know" whether Mr. Camping is right or not. I'm absolutely, completely, totally certain that he's doubtlessly wrong. There is just categorically nothing significant about this...

:lol: So that's how it's working is it. We did some reading up on this during our Sabbath meeting tonight. Apparently this is another prediction of one "Harold Camping", who also made the same prediction for 1994. He also owns familyradio.com, which broadcasts world wide, supposedly. Harol...

The End of the World

So, quite a few people are saying it's the "Rapture" this coming Saturday.

Does anyone know which Time zone they're going by?

Osama - Dead

Whilst I doubt people have yet to hear about this - the CIA has killed Osama Bin Laden.

Now we just have to fear what is to come after this. I expect that the retaliation by the Terrorism Community will be imminent and immense.

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

I hope I'm not the only one who sees the irony in CW having a go at Paul for going on about himself (even though actually, Paul really doesn't), yet CW also seems to go on about himself a lot and tell people the stuff that he's done. I haven't listened to any of the new Radio show, but if what you'v...

Re: Blog Post: Yahuweh's Feasts - Dating the Festivals Part

Well, the fact that the DBLSD:H module has managed to put a definition of a word as its first meaning, but that everything else has put as the last definition of the word somewhat settles the "it's not that good". It's also linked to the A Greek -English Lexicon based on Semantic domains ,...

Re: Blog Post: Yahuweh's Feasts - Dating the Festivals Part

Oh, the Dictionary of Biblical Languages with Semantic Domains? I wouldn't put that high up on any list. You really want to be looking at either the Theological Wordbook of the Old Testament, or the Brown-Driver-Briggs Hebrew-English Lexicon, extremely highly regarded dictionaries and Lexicons. Both...

Re: Blog Post: Yahuweh's Feasts - Dating the Festivals Part

Hmm, the Hebrew word I have for "first" is ri'shown/ראשון. If you're referring to the word for "remove", that certainly is the Hebrew verb shabat/שבת (#H7673), however, if the Hebrew was referring to it as the Sabbath or a Sabbath day, then the Hebrew would have to appear exactly...

Re: Blog Post: Yahuweh's Feasts - Dating the Festivals Part

We're instructed to remove the leaven on the 14th day; It does? I honestly can't see which verse is being referred to at the moment. From what I can understand from Exodus 12:15, the first day of Unleavened bread is when we remove the leaven from the homes, not on the fourteenth: Seven days you sha...

Re: Blog Post: Yahuweh's Feasts - Dating the Festivals Part

Whilst it certainly says that we're to eat unleavened bread with the passover meal (which happens during the night of the fourteenth, I'd reckon sometime around midnight), I don't think it says we're not to eat leavened bread at any other time on the fourteenth. Edit: Let's throw this into the mix a...

Re: Blog Post: Yahuweh's Feasts - Dating the Festivals Part

Checking the Hebrew of Exodus 12:18, whilst the Hebrew word translated as "evening" is the same as that seen in Exodus 12:6 ‘ereb/ערב, it is only ‘ereb's singular form, and not its dual form. It is also preceded by the preposition ba/ב meaning "in, at" and the definite article ha...

Re: Blog Post: Yahuweh's Feasts - Dating the Festivals Part

That does seem to be a bit of a conundrum.

Leviticus specifically says that Unleavened bread is from the 15th day of the month (Lev 23:6), yet Exodus 12:18 appears to want to count it from the fourteenth day of the month
