That's part of the problem you refuse to see. The NT constantly contradicts rather than complements what is in the Hebrew Bible. Sorry to say it, but it often plays fast and loose in translations and misquotes from the Hebrew to deliver a totally different message. Rom 11:26 And so all Israel...

Elvis, who is "me" and who is "him"?

I wont belabor this point. The origins of Christianity are based in Judaism and what is contained in the Hebrew Bible. The statement you have made is a form of replacement theology, which although promulgated in the Greek Testament, has no basis in the Hebrew Bible- the Tanakh. In fact, your...

No point getting too tied up with math. Our sages state that the probation period was 70 years x7 because the law of shemittah stated that the land was to have its Sabbath every 7 years.

Scripture tells us why there were 490 years provided for the expiation of sin, etc. To fulfill the word of the Lord in the mouth of Jeremiah, until the land was appeased for its Sabbaths; [for] all the days of its desolation it rested until the completion of seventy years. For the laws of the...

Hi O. No point arguing about dating systems- that's not the purpose of this thread anyway. My point is whether you use standard secular dating as you have done, or whether one favours jewish ecclesiastical dating, the proper reading of the text indicates a start time from the destruction of...

In the first year of his reign, I, Daniel, contemplated the calculations, the number of the years that the WORD of the Lord had come to Jeremiah the prophet, since the destruction of Jerusalem seventy years. And you shall know and understand that from the emergence of the WORD to restore and...

Rather than starting at v24 what about v1 to put things in context? Why was Daniel contemplating the calculations in Jeremiah. He knew.. that prophecy concerning the destruction of Bablyon after 70 years was complete but he was concerned about the prophecy of redemption and restoration of...

The following is presented to provide a different perspective to what I feel is the true interpretation of Dan 9. No disrespect is intended to the Christian faith. The KJB has the following :25 Know therefore and understand, that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build...

Titus, who at the time of the destruction of the second temple was the son of the emperor Vespasian, and "prince" of Rome. When I have more time I would like to put forward quite a different interpretation of Daniel 9 looking at the entire chapter and its relationship to the Hebrew Bible, not...

I respectfully disagree with any opinion that equates the "He" with either Jesus or the anti-christ. These opinions are based on mistranslations of many passages in Dan 9 from the original Hebrew omitting relevant words which are in the original and adding words which are absent. Read in...

RichardBurger stated:However, when they, the Jews, killed their Messiah (Jesus)... I beg to differ. Jesus was never qualified to be the Jewish messiah and as the Greek Testament states, he was crucified- a Roman method of execution perfected by the Romans and unknown as a form of punishment...

Here is what He achieved for us through all His suffering: Isa 53:5 But 1) he was wounded for our transgressions, 2) he was bruised for our iniquities; 3) the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and 4) with his stripes we are healed. C. This may be off topic from the thread but I just...

No problem. W.T. I thought it was obvious, after all, Einstein (like Jesus) was Jewish. :lol

When one follows the guidelines set out in the Hebrew calendar, it becomes undeniable that Jesus' prophecy of three days and three nights could not have been fulfilled. Recognizing that most biblical scholars place the crucifixtion on Friday afternoon (the synoptics point to the ninth hour ie...

Well, I think there is a more fundamental problem that the 3 days and 3 nights. :-) The synoptic gospels all present the last supper as a Passover seder and they all state that Jesus was crucified the next day ie on the first day of Passover which by the Jewish calendar is the the 15th of...

I have a basic question. Was Jesus crucified on the first day of Passover?

The KJB is rife with mistranslations and errors from the original Hebrew Bible. Nothing really new there. Read this entire chapter (for context) in the original Hebrew and it is clear Isaiah is talking about the pride, arrogance and fall of Nebuchadnezzer as well as the redemption of Israel from...

So what, in your opinion is Jesus' tribal lineage?

Whether Paul was the author or not is immaterial (although Origen opined that the thoughts were Paul's but the style was by another author). The significant point here is that it was Abram who tithed and was blessed, not Abraham. The conversion of Abram's name with the Hebrew letter "hay" in the...
