1 | Other nations asked to be "Chosen" 1st? | Deut 33:2 | TwoHAWK | 9700 | ||
Nolan, thank you for your kind expression of welcome to the Forum and your thorough response to my question. The question I asked derives from the Jewish Talmud via the first-century leader of Palestinian Jewry, Rabbi Yochanan. Since reading your response, I have revisited pertinent parts of Gen., Exod., and Deut. From God's initial agreement with Abraham (Gen. 12:1-3) to Moses' last address to the Children of Israel in which the covenant is confirmed (Deut. 29:9ff), I turned up no mention of a people other than Israel being approached by God, and I find myself rather persuaded by your view. While I don't feel drawn to pursue this issue further, perhaps the Kabbalah might shed some light... At any rate, thank you again. Aho, TwoHAWK |
