In the New Testament he is referred to as the representative of the law and as a type of Christ (Joh 1:17; 2Co 3:13-18; Heb 3:5-6). Moses is the only character in the Old Testament to whom Christ likens himself (Joh 5:46; comp. De 18:15,18-19; Ac 7:37). In Heb 3:1-19 this likeness to Moses is set forth in various particulars. There are person walked with God and perfect: Ge 6:9 These are the generations of Noah: Noah was a just man and perfect in his generations, and Noah walked with God. 1Ki 15:14 But the high places were not removed: nevertheless Asa's heart was perfect with the LORD all his days.

304 | There are three Ark mentioned in the bib | Gen 6:14 | jlpangilinan | 17804 | ||
Steve, I think there are three: 1. Noah's Ark 2. The ark of bulrushes (Moses) 3. The sacred ark of Covenant Johnny Ark Noah's ark, a building of gopher-wood, and covered with pitch, 300 cubits long, 50 cubits broad, and 30 cubits high (Ge 6:14-16); an oblong floating house of three stories, with a door in the side and a window in the roof. It was 100 years in building (Ge 5:32; 7:6). It was intended to preserve certain persons and animals from the deluge which God was about to bring over the earth. It contained eight persons (Ge 7:13; 2Pe 2:5), and of all "clean" animals seven pairs, and of "unclean" one pair, and of birds seven pairs of each sort (Ge 7:2-3). It was in the form of an oblong square, with flat bottom and sloping roof. Traditions of the Deluge, by which the race of man was swept from the earth, and of the ark of Noah have been found existing among all nations. The ark of bulrushes in which the infant Moses was laid (Ex 2:3) is called in the Hebrew teebah, a word derived from the Egyptian teb, meaning "a chest." It was daubed with slime and with pitch. The bulrushes of which it was made were the papyrus reed. The sacred ark is designated by a different Hebrew word, 'aron', which is the common name for a chest or coffer used for any purpose (Ge 50:26; 2Ki 12:9-10). It is distinguished from all others by such titles as the "ark of God" (1Sa 3:3), "ark of the covenant" (Jos 3:6; Heb 9:4), |

It was global Ge 6:17 And, behold, I, even I, do bring a flood of waters upon the earth, to destroy all flesh, wherein is the breath of life, from under heaven; and every thing that is in the earth shall die.

306 | What does Noahs nakedness mean | Gen 9:22 | jlpangilinan | 78674 | ||
His uncovered body Ge 9:20 And Noah began to be an husbandman, and he planted a vineyard: Ge 9:21 And he drank of the wine, and was drunken; and he was uncovered within his tent. Ge 9:22 And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his father, and told his two brethren without. |

307 | why does it seem the good die young? | Gen 9:29 | jlpangilinan | 36235 | ||
No! I think it is not biblical. Too many man of God die in old age i.e. Noah died in the age of 950, Methuselah, 969 years. Ge 9:29 And all the days of Noah were nine hundred and fifty years: and he died. Ge 5:27 And all the days of Methuselah were nine hundred sixty and nine years: and he died. Ge 5:28 ¶ And Lamech lived an hundred eighty and two years, and begat a son: Ge 5:29 And he called his name Noah, saying, This same shall comfort us concerning our work and toil of our hands, because of the ground which the LORD hath cursed. If we recall, when God brought the flood all died except to those 7 in Ark including Noah. At the time all people died included young ones, babies, etc. that excluded in the Ark. To many died young in thier so it is not true that good die youngs. Also in sodom, too many people died when God funish that city. It also include young ones, we also sure that abram live long than of those died in sodom, and abraham is a good man. God bless, Johnny |

308 | difference between covenent and bargain | Gen 15:1 | jlpangilinan | 36562 | ||
Covenant a contract or agreement between two parties. It was done mostly in Old testament, i.e between Noah and God, Abraham and God when God said to abraham that "you are my people, and I am your God" this covenant remains and both parties has a responsibility to both parties. The people of abraham has to follow the God's rule to remain God's people and God being faithful to His promises as being God of these people, being in thier side taking care of them. The different between covenant and bargaining I think if you have covenant with God, both of you have responsible for both parties, in bargaining there is no definite answers or whatsoever. The entry in Easton Bible dictionary about Covenant: a contract or agreement between two parties. In the Old Testament the Hebrew word berith is always thus translated. Berith is derived from a root which means "to cut," and hence a covenant is a "cutting," with reference to the cutting or dividing of animals into two parts, and the contracting parties passing between them, in making a covenant (Ge 15:1-21; Jer 34:18-19). The corresponding word in the New Testament Greek is diatheke, which is, however, rendered "testament" generally in the Authorized Version. It ought to be rendered, just as the word berith of the Old Testament, "covenant." This word is used (1) of a covenant or compact between man and man (Ge 21:32), or between tribes or nations (1Sa 11:1; Jos 9:6,15). In entering into a convenant, Jehovah was solemnly called on to witness the transaction (Ge 31:50), and hence it was called a "covenant of the Lord" (1Sa 20:8). The marriage compact is called "the covenant of God" (Pr 2:17), because the marriage was made in God's name. Wicked men are spoken of as acting as if they had made a "covenant with death" not to destroy them, or with hell not to devour them (Isa 28:15,18). (2.) The word is used with reference to God's revelation of himself in the way of promise or of favour to men. Thus God's promise to Noah after the Flood is called a covenant (Ge 9:1-29; Jer 33:20, "my covenant"). We have an account of God's covernant with Abraham (Ge 17:1-27, comp. Le 26:42), of the covenant of the priesthood (Nu 25:12-13; De 33:9; Ne 13:29), and of the covenant of Sinai (Ex 34:27-28; Le 26:15), which was afterwards renewed at different times in the history of Israel (De 29:1-29; Jos 1:18; 2Ch 15:1-19; 23:1-21; 29:1-36; 34:1-33; Ezr 10:1-44; Ne 9:1-38). In conformity with human custom, God's covenant is said to be confirmed with an oath (De 4:31; Ps 89:3), and to be accompanied by a sign (Ge 9:1-29; 17:1-27). Hence the covenant is called God's "counsel," "oath," "promise" (Ps 89:3-4; 105:8-11; Heb 6:13-20; Lu 1:68-75). God's covenant consists wholly in the bestowal of blessing (Isa 59:21; Jer 31:33-34). Christ, the mediator of, fulfils all its conditions in behalf of his people, and dispenses to them all its blessings. In Heb 8:6; 9:15; 12:24, this title is given to Christ God bless, Johnny |

309 | Does God send disasters as punishment? | Gen 18:20 | jlpangilinan | 83510 | ||
Yes! Ge 18:20 And the LORD said, Because the cry of Sodom and Gomorrah is great, and because their sin is very grievous; Ge 18:26 And the LORD said, If I find in Sodom fifty righteous within the city, then I will spare all the place for their sakes. Herode was a very example of this. Ac 12:23 And immediately the angel of the Lord smote him, because he gave not God the glory: and he was eaten of worms, and gave up the ghost. |

313 | Why did god choose Israel as his people? | Gen 22:18 | jlpangilinan | 131564 | ||
As God He knew that what He has done choosing israel as His people is the perfect thing to do because He is God. De 32:4 He is the Rock, his work is perfect: for all his ways are judgment: a God of truth and without iniquity, just and right is he. Also, it maybe because of the faithful heart of Abraham. Ge 22:18 And in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed; because thou hast obeyed my voice. Ge 22:16 And said, By myself have I sworn, saith the LORD, for because thou hast done this thing, and hast not withheld thy son, thine only son: Ge 22:17 That in blessing I will bless thee, and in multiplying I will multiply thy seed as the stars of the heaven, and as the sand which is upon the sea shore; and thy seed shall possess the gate of his enemies; God sworn to abraham, to bless the seed of Abraham, it so happen that the seed of abraham was Isaac, and Jacob as son of Isaac which was called ISRAEL. Ge 32:28 And he said, Thy name shall be called no more Jacob, but Israel: for as a prince hast thou power with God and with men, and hast prevailed. Again, it just so happened that the descendants of abraham are not Chinese, American, Russian, but Israelites. God bless, |

314 | what is Jacobs troubles? | Gen 25:26 | jlpangilinan | 22429 | ||
I put the introduction to Jacob I hope you will find it helpul, it is quiet long. Regarding his troubles, it could be with his twin brother Esau it is included in the intorduction. Thanks, Johnny Jacob one who follows on another's heels; supplanter, (Ge 25:26; 27:36; Ho 12:2-4), the second born of the twin sons of Isaac by Rebekah. He was born probably at Lahai-roi, when his father was fifty-nine and Abraham one hundred and fifty-nine years old. Like his father, he was of a quiet and gentle disposition, and when he grew up followed the life of a shepherd, while his brother Esau became an enterprising hunter. His dealing with Esau, however, showed much mean selfishness and cunning (Ge 25:29-34). When Isaac was about 160 years of age, Jacob and his mother conspired to deceive the aged patriarch (Ge 27:1-46), with the view of procuring the transfer of the birthright to himself. The birthright secured to him who possessed it (1) superior rank in his family (Ge 49:3); (2) a double portion of the paternal inheritance (De 21:17); (3) the priestly office in the family (Nu 8:17-19); and (4) the promise of the Seed in which all nations of the earth were to be blessed (Ge 22:18). Soon after his acquisition of his father's blessing (Ge 27:1-46), Jacob became conscious of his guilt; and afraid of the anger of Esau, at the suggestion of Rebekah Isaac sent him away to Haran, 400 miles or more, to find a wife among his cousins, the family of Laban, the Syrian (28). There he met with Rachel (29). Laban would not consent to give him his daughter in marriage till he had served seven years; but to Jacob these years "seemed but a few days, for the love he had to her." But when the seven years were expired, Laban craftily deceived Jacob, and gave him his daughter Leah. Other seven years of service had to be completed probably before he obtained the beloved Rachel. But "life-long sorrow, disgrace, and trials, in the retributive providence of God, followed as a consequence of this double union." At the close of the fourteen years of service, Jacob desired to return to his parents, but at the entreaty of Laban he tarried yet six years with him, tending his flocks (Ge 31:41). He then set out with his family and property "to go to Isaac his father in the land of Canaan" (Ge 31:1-55). Laban was angry when he heard that Jacob had set out on his journey, and pursued after him, overtaking him in seven days. The meeting was of a painful kind. After much recrimination and reproach directed against Jacob, Laban is at length pacified, and taking an affectionate farewell of his daughters, returns to his home in Padanaram. And now all connection of the Israelites with Mesopotamia is at an end. Soon after parting with Laban he is met by a company of angels, as if to greet him on his return and welcome him back to the Land of Promise (Ge 32:1-2). He called the name of the place Mahanaim, i.e., "the double camp," probably his own camp and that of the angels. The vision of angels was the counterpart of that he had formerly seen at Bethel, when, twenty years before, the weary, solitary traveller, on his way to Padan-aram, saw the angels of God ascending and descending on the ladder whose top reached to heaven (Ge 28:12). He now hears with dismay of the approach of his brother Esau with a band of 400 men to meet him. In great agony of mind he prepares for the worst. He feels that he must now depend only on God, and he betakes himself to him in earnest prayer, and sends on before him a munificent present to Esau, "a present to my lord Esau from thy servant Jacob." Jacob's family were then transported across the Jabbok; but he himself remained behind, spending the night in communion with God. While thus engaged, there appeared one in the form of a man who wrestled with him. In this mysterious contest Jacob prevailed, and as a memorial of it his name was changed to Israel (wrestler with God); and the place where this occured he called Peniel, "for", said he, "I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved" (Ge 32:25-31). |

315 | Where did Jacob get the game? | Gen 27:7 | jlpangilinan | 14785 | ||
Steve, I think if we are going to read the whole chapter, when mother of Jacob heard Isaack will bless Esau, she told jacob to get to good kids of goat and make them savoury meat. During this time Esau is out hunting for the venison (wild animals as requested of his father) The whole chapter 27 also stated that Isaac surprise that Esau is to quick to find venison. Because Isaac dont know that it was Jacob who brought him the food. Genesis 27:7 Bring me venison, and make me savoury meat, that I may eat, and bless thee before the LORD before my death. I hope I did answer your question. Johnny |

316 | I hope it would help | Gen 27:7 | jlpangilinan | 15431 | ||
steve, sorry for not getting back to you immediately. I quoted some verses here, maybe it would help. Genesis 25:30-34 And Esau said to Jacob, Feed me, I pray thee, with that same red pottage; for I am faint: therefore was his name called Edom. And Jacob said, Sell me this day thy birthright. And Esau said, Behold, I am at the point to die: and what profit shall this birthright do to me? And Jacob said, Swear to me this day; and he sware unto him: and he sold his birthright unto Jacob. Then Jacob gave Esau bread and pottage of lentiles; and he did eat and drink, and rose up, and went his way: thus Esau despised his birthright. if you see from those verses that Esau, is not that after for his being the first born of Isaac. He sale his birth right to Jacob. |

317 | Where has Leah traveled? | Gen 30:21 | jlpangilinan | 21399 | ||
Leah She acompanied Jacob into canaan: weary, the eldest daughter of Laban, and sister of Rachel (Ge 29:16). Jacob took her to wife through a deceit of her father (Ge 29:23). She was "tender-eyed" (Ge 29:17). She bore to Jacob six sons (Ge 29:32-35), also one daughter, Dinah (Ge 30:21). She accompanied Jacob into Canaan, and died there before the time of the going down into Egypt (Ge 31:1-55), and was buried in the cave of Machpelah (Ge 49:31). Thanks, Johnny |

318 | what do Mahanaim mean? | Gen 32:2 | jlpangilinan | 67110 | ||
Mahanaim two camps, a place near the Jabbok, beyond Jordan, where Jacob was met by the "angels of God," and where he divided his retinue into "two hosts" on his return from Padan-aram (Ge 32:2). This name was afterwards given to the town which was built at that place. It was the southern boundary of Bashan (Jos 13:26,30), and became a city of the Levites (Jos 21:38). Here Saul's son Ishbosheth reigned (2Sa 2:8,12), while David reigned at Hebron. Here also, after a troubled reign, Ishbosheth was murdered by two of his own bodyguard (2Sa 4:5-7), who brought his head to David at Hebron, but were, instead of being rewarded, put to death by him for their cold-blooded murder. Many years after this, when he fled from Jerusalem on the rebellion of his son Absalom, David made Mahanaim, where Barzillai entertained him, his headquarters, and here he mustered his forces which were led against the army that had gathered around Absalom. It was while sitting at the gate of this town that tidings of the great and decisive battle between the two hosts and of the death of his son Absalom reached him, when he gave way to the most violent grief (2Sa 17:24-27). The only other reference to Mahanaim is as a station of one of Solomon's purveyors (1Ki 4:14). It has been identified with the modern Mukhumah, a ruin found in a depressed plain called el-Bukie'a, "the little vale," near Penuel, south of the Jabbok, and north-east of es-Salt.

319 | the tribes | Gen 35:22 | jlpangilinan | 63326 | ||
They are the twelve sons of JACOB (ISRAEL) Ge 35:22 And it came to pass, when Israel dwelt in that land, that Reuben went and lay with Bilhah his father's concubine: and Israel heard it. Now the sons of Jacob were twelve: Ge 35:23 The sons of Leah; Reuben, Jacob's firstborn, and Simeon, and Levi, and Judah, and Issachar, and Zebulun: Ge 35:24 The sons of Rachel; Joseph, and Benjamin: Ge 35:25 And the sons of Bilhah, Rachel's handmaid; Dan, and Naphtali: Ge 35:26 And the sons of Zilpah, Leah's handmaid; Gad, and Asher: these are the sons of Jacob, which were born to him in Padanaram. Israel the name conferred on Jacob after the great prayer-struggle at Peniel (Ge 32:28), called "Israelites," the "children of Israel" (Jos 3:17; 7:25; Jg 8:27; Jer 3:21), 40:38). God bless, Johnny |

320 | birth control use | Gen 38:10 | jlpangilinan | 125953 | ||
There is no clear statement from the Bible about birth control. Me and my wife, practicing what we call normal birth conrol (not using any medicine, contraceptives, etc) we have one child, a daughter. We do this to make sure that we can support our daughter to feed her good, and send her in good school to have good education. I think there is not wrong about the intentions. Philippines are over populated, 4.5 million jobless, the survey says most of those jobless are live in squatter area, survey also said that those jobless are the most have many children, averaging 8 or 9 child per household. Imagine having 10 children without permanent income? 2Co 12:14 Behold, the third time I am ready to come to you; and I will not be burdensome to you: for I seek not yours, but you: for the children ought not to lay up for the parents, but the parents for the children.
