41 | john gill, "church"? | Hebrews | Jaknik | 48697 | ||
No churches in the Old Testament because the Old Testament was written by the Jewish folk, about the Jewish folk--for the Jewish folk. Just synagoges existed at that time. In fact, churches did not exist during the time of Jesus. All of his "indoor" preaching was conducted at synogoges, too. The "churches" didn't get really going until the apostle Paul really got into high gear, after the death of Jesus. When it became apparent to him (Paul) that his Jewish brethren were going to be totally receptive to his ideas about changing some of the ideas of the old Jewish beliefs, then he concentrated on the "gentiles"...thus a different name for the place of worship... | ||||||

43 | what did jesus look like | Hebrews | Jaknik | 48699 | ||
The one aspect for sure: he would not have had long hair. The Jewish men in that time period had very close cropped hair styles, and if they were taking a "vow" of some sort, they would have to be shaven bald. Also, the surrounding societies, including the Roman conquerors, had a short hair style. In the New Testment, the apostle Paul states that "men are to be embarrassed by short hair, and that it is only the women who should wear their hair long.... | ||||||
44 | Is it possibly had medium length hair ? | Hebrews | Jaknik | 48732 | ||
Made a mistake. Actually Paul says, "...men are embarrassed if they have LONG hair..." Sorry. | ||||||
