1 | what sabbath does it refer to? | Col 2:16 | djconklin | 25514 | ||
Very good question! Too bad the others didn't catch on to that one! The key is to look at how the word "heorte" was used in the LXX; it turns out that you'll find the same answer if you take very careful note how the words "chaq" and "mo'ed" are used in the Hebrew text. Hint: it wouldn't makes sense to use the word "heorte" (feast in English) to refer to a day of fasting (such as, the Day of Atonement and the feast of Trumpets--both of which are?). | ||||||
2 | what sabbath does it refer to? | Col 2:16 | seeking wisdom | 25536 | ||
Thank you for replying to my question. Unfortunately your reply doesn't help me because I am neither a Greek nor a Hebrew scholar. I am merely a student of the scriptures--and my only language is english. I will continue to seek my answers elsewhere. It was kind of you to at least answer my question considering all the weird communication around here. | ||||||
3 | what sabbath does it refer to? | Col 2:16 | jenna | 25542 | ||
I am not s scholar either. I only seek the knowlegde I am given. I only know that God did not have a calendar abd days of the week. Far as I know there was no clock either. He worked for six days and rested on the seventh. Is praying or helping work? Are we rejoicing for what God Has given us? Are we being thankful? Do we need stop working on a seventh day if someone is having a baby in the hospital or needs medical attention? What I reaaly want to say is not to worry. Did Jesus take a day off and not help those who were in need ? | ||||||
4 | what sabbath does it refer to? | Col 2:16 | casiv | 25543 | ||
Hello and very well said jenna, An answer in love from the heart is greater than any scholar of the world could ever provide. Jesus didn't take the day off because as He said in Mark 2:27 was," The sabbath was made for man, and not man for the sabbath:". Also please see the definition of scholar as follows: scholar - one who attends school or studies under a teacher: pupil By the definition, I would say you are a scholar. You are a pupil of the greatest teacher to ever live, The Father who has given you His Holy Spirit to teach you about His Son and based on the answer you gave, He is showing you the love He has for you and all of us who search the scripture with all sincerity of our hearts to understand the Fathers will by taking the mind of His Son. Peace IN Faith, Hope and Love of the Living Water, casiv |

5 | what sabbath does it refer to? | Col 2:16 | jenna | 25618 | ||
Thank you.I read a book called Rabbi Jesus. I am half- way done with it. It has such tremendous insight about how Jesus lived. Why he was rejected by many people. Without God, I believe he could not have understood to be with God. God was his father and he found comfort and refuge with him. Just like we are suppssed to do but we all lose the sight of this. Today with everything we have been given, do we really understand how blessed we are??? He was middle class without a father. He was even rejected and casted out of his own temple, until he met John the Baptist. People could not read back then. Jesus' ideals were radical to people back then. I believe his tribulations back then reflected what kind of society we had back then too. Jesus did save us and that if the most precious gift that society takes for granted. Peolpe do feel they can do things without God. People pray and don't understand what they are asking. People fight and don't understand there fight. God wants us to be his children. Jesus only wants goodness for us. I feel that God knew what would happen if we ate the wrong foods. We would get fat. Because we get fat we have health problems and have diabetes,.etc. Any way I am rambling now. Praise God from whom all blessings flow. |

"He was even rejected and casted out of his own temple, until he met John the Baptist." If that is what the author said he/she is mistaken. Jesus began His ministry by being baptized by John the Baptist; later he was cast out of the local synagogue in Nazareth. He was never cast out of the Temple. The rest was good. |
