Thank you! I thought they were both from the same line but the geneology's were confusing me. | ||||||

4 | Was the temple curtain repaired? | Heb 9:1 | Songbirdca | 152505 | ||
What difference does it make? Since when has this become a forum for bashing others about the way they respond to things? I'm shocked and appalled at the way I'm being treated by my so-called "brothers" in Christ. BTW, this is a comment - it does NOT require scripture because I'm voicing my concern. Okay? |

5 | Was the temple curtain repaired? | Heb 9:1 | Songbirdca | 152401 | ||
I'm not really sure why you are picking on me like this, but when I make a comment I don't usually include scripture. When I answer a question I try to always include scripture. I'm not sure where you got your numbers from, because according to my statistics I've only answered 13 questions and 8 out of those answers included scripture references. |

6 | So she should only be eating fruit? | Gen 2:16 | Songbirdca | 152382 | ||
Terrib, I agree with you. But how can a perfect world (Eden) have included meat-eating? It seems wrong somehow. | ||||||
7 | If all sacrafices ended, then why Acts 2 | Heb 9:1 | Songbirdca | 152381 | ||
Lionheart I realize the sacrifices were no longer necessary. I was simply trying to point out that they did not cease immediately upon Jesus death. | ||||||
8 | Was the temple curtain repaired? | Heb 9:1 | Songbirdca | 152380 | ||
Who are you talking to? Because I use scripture all the time. | ||||||

Doc, since I never "assumed" anything about you, please don't assume such about me. I never claimed any of the things you have stated. I was simply trying to point something out. | ||||||
10 | What was the true meaning of livestock? | Gen 2:16 | Songbirdca | 152304 | ||
The best translation for the word livestock is the King James Version. The word livestock is actually cattle. They didn't use them for anything except to care for them. Remember, God originally made the animals as Adam's companions. Then later on He created Eve. Genesis 2:18-22 18 Then the LORD God said, "It is not good for the man to be alone; I will make him a helper suitable for him." 19 Out of the ground the LORD God formed every beast of the field and every bird of the sky, and brought them to the man to see what he would call them; and whatever the man called a living creature, that was its name. 20 The man gave names to all the cattle, and to the birds of the sky, and to every beast of the field, but for Adam there was not found a helper suitable for him. 21 So the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall upon the man, and he slept; then He took one of his ribs and closed up the flesh at that place. 22 The LORD God fashioned into a woman the rib which He had taken from the man, and brought her to the man. |

11 | So she should only be eating fruit? | Gen 2:16 | Songbirdca | 152303 | ||
Clearly, God intended for mankind to be vegetarian as you can see from the following verses and note that it's not just fruit, but "every seed-bearing plant". Genesis 2:9 says this: And the LORD God made all kinds of trees grow out of the ground—trees that were pleasing to the eye and good for food. In the middle of the garden were the tree of life and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. Then in Genesis 2:16,17 it says: And the LORD God commanded the man, "You are free to eat from any tree in the garden; (17) but you must not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, for when you eat of it you will surely die." In Genesis 1:29 this is what God intended for Adam and Eve to eat. 29 Then God said, "I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food. Even the animals were to be vegetarian as noted in this verse from Genesis 1:30. "And to all the beasts of the earth and all the birds of the air and all the creatures that move on the ground—everything that has the breath of life in it—I give every green plant for food." And it was so. |

12 | Was the temple curtain repaired? | Heb 9:1 | Songbirdca | 152301 | ||
Doc, I guess we'll have to agree to disagree! :) I believe the OT (the Torah, which Jesus cited many times during his time on earth) is just as relevant today. It makes no difference if these events happened centuries before Jesus. They are in the Bible to teach of something about God. Namely, His holiness. |

13 | If all sacrafices ended, then why Acts 2 | Heb 9:1 | Songbirdca | 152278 | ||
Merv you are forgetting the fact that the sacrifices did not end with Jesus for the temple practices still went on as usual. Not until the destruction of the temple did the sacrifices end. | ||||||
14 | If all sacrafices ended, then why Acts 2 | Heb 9:1 | Songbirdca | 152277 | ||
MJH, it appears within the context of this chapter that Paul participated in the purification ceremony to show his fidelity to the law. We know that he paid for the expenses of the four men to have their heads shaved (as is the custom for a Nazarite vow), what we do not know is if he actually took the vow himself or merely went to be purified. As for the sacrifies (or offering) you mentioned that was part of the Levitical law. An offering had to be made at the end of the purification. And Paul was trying to show the Jews (who were about to kill him) that he was just as religious as they were). The sacrifices did not end with the death and resurrection of Jesus. They ended with the destruction of the temple. |

Doc, I would have to disagree with you on that one. The ark of the covenant would cause a person to be cursed by God if they touched it, some even died! Check out 1 Samuel chapters 3 and 4 on what happened to the Philistines when they took the ark in battle. In particular notice what Phineas's wife says in 1 Samuel 3 vs. 21 and 22 about the glory departing Israel. Also, check out 2 Samuel 6 vs. 6 and 7, where someone actually died from touching the ark (even though God's glory had departed it). | ||||||

How do you know that the temple curtain was repaired? Where is that found in scripture? | ||||||
17 | Who were Mary's sisters? | John 19:25 | Songbirdca | 145345 | ||
Did you notice that the same verse John 19:25 is used to show that both Mary the wife of Clopas and Salome were the Virgin Mary's sisters? | ||||||
18 | Elisabeth's relation to Mary | Not Specified | Songbirdca | 144934 | ||
I'm writing a book and have tried to determine whether or not Elisabeth is Mary's cousin or her aunt. The original greek is "suggenes" meaning of the same kin, akin to, related by blood. Different translations have turned this word in to "relative", "cousin" and "kinswoman". It is crucial to my story that Elisabeth be an Aunt to Mary. My question is this - How upsetting (in everyone's opinion) would this be to the Christian community at large? How important a factor is it in the huge scheme of things? I would greatly appreciate everyone's insight. Thanks. |

Emmaus I thought so too, but the confusion lies with Mark 15:40 which reads: "There were also women looking on afar off: among whom was Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James the less and of Joses, and Salome". Now if you compare that verse with John 19:25, wouldn't Mary's sister be Salome? | ||||||
