321 | Which Enemies Could Israel Marry? | Deut 21:10 | skccab | 207081 | ||
Shalom Bowler, It could also be that some of the battles the spoils were to be God's, like Jericho. Absolutely nothing was to be taken from that city (see what happened to Achan when he took a few items that belonged to God!), and other battles the spoils were open for the taking. All the nations mentioned in chapter 7 were to be completely destroyed (but I don't think that that happened). But the cities spoken of in chapter 21 are also spoken of as being completely destroyed except for the few women that would be taken as wives (that's why God gave them time to mourn, the loss of parents, family, friends, homeland). I don't think that allowance is talking about an Israelite man going off into some gentile country and taking a wife, only the few enemy women taken captive in battle. (There were many instances where the order was to keep alive the virgin girls and young children, and livestock.) Again, my understanding of the passages Like you, still learning, and Loving It!!!

322 | Which Enemies Could Israel Marry? | Deut 21:10 | skccab | 207082 | ||
Hiya again Bowler, I neglected to address your first sentence. I did not mean that the Israelites couldn't marry from those countries only. They were not to leave them alive at all, not make any treaties or covenants with them nor show them any mercy because "...seven nations greater and mightier than you." Dt 7:1b. :-) Cheri |

Bowler :-) I think between the two of us, we might just have it! Or at least a beginning of a better understanding, and that's a good start!! Yes? I'm sorry my wording wasn't so good. Cheri |

John, Aaaah, that's OK. Just shows that my Super Bro is a Super humanBro, and we all make mistakes (of which I seem to take the helm - arrrgh). :-) Shalom Cheri |

325 | Moabites forbidden and Ruth allowed?? | Deut 23:3 | skccab | 214561 | ||
Thanks John, That's pretty much what I figured, males only. Like I've told you before, when I begin reading Gill, he's sooo good, I forget why I went there. Thanks for being focused for me.....!!!!! Cheri |

326 | Moabites forbidden and Ruth allowed?? | Deut 23:3 | skccab | 214563 | ||
Hiya, I was thinking in terms of one of the Ammonites/Moabites joining themselves to Israel thru conversion, so I'm not sure of that, cos it would go against the "will not...forever" statement. But I can agree that the women and girls could be exempt from it, maybe even young boys who were still teachable....???? Good discussion, thank you. Cheri |

327 | Moabites forbidden and Ruth allowed?? | Deut 23:3 | skccab | 214567 | ||
Shalom again John, Gotcha!! I think we're on the same page, I was asking only in the context of the "OT bible days". I use the NKJV mostly, and it reads like the ESV you quoted, and I knew I was missing something, just couldn't figure out what :o) Cheri |

328 | Moabites forbidden and Ruth allowed?? | Deut 23:3 | skccab | 214588 | ||
MJH Shalom, Thank you so much!! John and I had come to a conclusion and your addition just added to what we concluded. I like your #3 the best also. (And I'm right with you on your opening statement about the Torah (:o ) Thank you for taking the time and effort for me. I should have figured it out, but there are times my ol' brain just doesn't want to work right - when that happens, it sure is nice to know I have learned brothers and sisters to help out! lol. Cheri |

329 | I just started reading the Bible and.... | Deut 24:1 | skccab | 211264 | ||
Shalom Keliy, I really enjoyed your OT/NT statements that you shared, thank you. I'm going to copy them down in my Bible. Oh by the way I hope you had a tzohorayim tovim today (I finally learned good afternoon - it's in the plural.) Cheri |

330 | Is Deu 25:5, applicable to day? | Deut 25:5 | skccab | 200920 | ||
Shalom Jeff, I'm certainly not "more skilled", not at all, but I have just finished a small study of the "firstborn," so maybe I can add a smidgen to your explanation. In those days having sons was paramount - and being "first born" and receiving the first born status and blessing of the firstborn extremely important. Onan was to produce a male child with this sister-in-law but the child would not be considered fully his (that is not raised in his household under his rule) but could in fact also be considered in line for the firstborn status/blessing should the sister-in-law deliver a boy before his own wife delivered a boy. (At least, this is my understanding of it :-) .) As an aside, I agree with you about his deceit displeasing God, but I also think it was the spilling of the life-seed onto the ground that actually sealed his fate. Still learning Cheri |

Well, we have the Gen. account about the waters parting for the land at creation. And then don't we have another time in Gen. when the land parted, wouldn't that also part the waters? Sorry for lack of scripture references, at work right now, just using (hopefully not faulty) memory :-). Shalom Cheri |

333 | Who or what was sacrificed? | Judg 11:39 | skccab | 199657 | ||
dear John, If you read Lev 6 about the burnt offerings and find the passages on the vows made to G-d in Num 6 (I think), you'll get your answer to this riddle (or at least as much of an answer our pea brains can handle). You're absolutely right, Abba would not accept a human sacrifice. The blood of perfect, innocent animals was always the substitute. The possibility of a human sacrifice under Messiah's G-d with His pleasure is unheard of!! It's off to work I go Cheri |

334 | Who or what was sacrificed? | Judg 11:39 | skccab | 199674 | ||
Hey bro, I'm fine, absolutely fine, finer 'n I've ever been in my life!! I haven't gone away anywhere. Nope, won't get me nor anyone closer or more saved or more holy or more anything, I usually call Abba, Abba or Adonai or HaShem, here on the forum, for purposes you're well aware of, I compromise and call Him Abba or I call Him,G-d (I take the "o" out of the capitalized lord as well). Has nothing to do with closeness, or salvation, it's just a fence to help not profane His Name. :-) Cheri |

335 | Who or what was sacrificed? | Judg 11:39 | skccab | 199683 | ||
Nope not compromising His at all. Just using terms here that are known and accepted, because you and others fussed when I used the term TaNaKH instead of "Old Testament". And the other is just a habit I have, I don't even think about it, it's just second nature now. Seems like I can't get it right here, but that's OK, I got it right where and with Whom it counts :-). Cheri |

336 | Who or what was sacrificed? | Judg 11:39 | skccab | 199687 | ||
My bro, I don't offend easily at all, especially where my brethren are concerned. After all, I'm your sister sos you gotta love me whether you like it or not and I gotta love you (and that commandment is easy to obey :-) ). God's shalom to you dear brother (see? I can put the o in or leave it out, I just have to think about it hahaha). Cheri |

337 | taking the Lord's name in vain means...? | Judg 11:39 | skccab | 199747 | ||
Shalom GB, I don't think anyone here is fighting. Questioning and discussing, most definitely. That's how we learn. And it's all good as long as we continue to remember that we are Family, and we continue to treat one another with great respect. SBF is chok full of wonderful folks who realize that we are each a very important part of a heavenly body, and when one is huting or missing then the whole body is wanting and out of balance. By the way, forgive me for a belated Welcome to the forum. I have enjoyed reading your postings. Cheri |

338 | the name of G-d? | Judg 11:39 | skccab | 199816 | ||
Shalom halroy, Amen, indeed He does, to the fullest!! Hallelu-yah. I am richly blessed in all things. Especially in brethren who love God's Messiah (whether they call him Jesus or Yeshua). Thank you so much, my brother, for getting back to me with your note. May you grow in the knowledge and love of our Lord Yeshua Messiah Cheri |

Hank, My previous post to yours, is not a screaming okay. I usually don't write the whole word out, I just use the letters (capitalized). You say it's an English-speaking Forum, that's all good and fine. But if you folks can say Alpha and Omega (which is not English), then why can I not say Alef and Tov? You guys say Christ (again, not English), so why can't I say Messiah? Y'all also use a lot of other latin terms and phrases - so where's the difference if I try to put a little bit of Hebrew back into Christianity? After all, our Master is not Latin, or Greek, or English. He's Hebrew, He's Israeli, He's Jewish, and nothing in the world is ever going to change that. If I've offended you folks in any way, please accept my apologies, that has never been my intention. If you guys want me to quit posting here, I will - with a broken heart, but I'll do it. The Father has put a fire in my heart for His people, His language, His land and His Holy Word and that's it. I have no other words right now.... Cheri |
