1 | Hebrws 9:27 what Happens with Enoch and | Hebrews | son of god | 207700 | ||
i have a question and I ask for serious replies only. please read the ENTIRE post before responding and do not jump to conclusions. If you dont know, dont be ashamed I dont either thats why I am asking. in matt. 4:4 and again in Luke 4:4 Jesus tells Satan that man shall not live by bread alone but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God. when he says it is written he is alluding to Deut. 8:3 Now in ICor.2:14 Paul says the natural man receiveth not the things of God: for they are foolishness to him;niether can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned and in 2nd Cor 5:7 he say for we walk by faith and not by sight. Now lets take all that into acount, stay with me please James 5:17 says Elijah was a man subject unto like passions just as we are. Gen. 5:24 says Enoch walked with God and was not for God took him. Duet.34:6 Moses mysteriously dissapears of course we see Moses and Elijah again on the mount of transfiguration and Jude mentions Enoch. but can someone tie this in with Hebrews 9:27 and it is appointed unto men once to die but after this the judgement?.I know Moses died and was buried; please dont state the obvious. | ||||||

Hi sog... I hope this is not some "technical obvious observation", though I must confess, I have no idea what you might mean by that. I do hope this helps you. Heb 9:27 is what is known as a general rule, because there are found in scripture some obvious exceptions. Elijah and Enoch, being two of them, also Lazarus of, John 11:14 and Tabitha of, Acts 9:40 are two more. There are others as well, Acts 20:9-10 and Mark 5:35-42, are two more exceptions to this rule. John Gill has this to say on Hebrews 9:27 that may be helpful to you. Shalom John Ver. 27. And as it is appointed unto men once to die,.... Not a moral, or what is commonly called a spiritual death, nor an eternal one, but a corporeal one; which does not arise from the constitution of nature, but from the sin of man, and God's decree on account of it; by which it is fixed that men shall die, and how long they shall live, and when they shall die; so that they cannot die sooner nor later; all things antecedent to death, which lead on to it, and issue in it, are appointed by God, and so is death itself, with all its circumstances; men's days can neither be lengthened nor shortened, either by Christ himself, or others: and this statute and appointment of God concerns men, not angels, and reaches to all men, wicked and righteous; and though there have been some exceptions, as Enoch and Elijah; and all will not sleep, or die, some will be found alive at Christ's appearing; yet such will undergo a change which is equivalent to death, as Enoch and Elijah have done: and generally speaking men die but once; it is not usual for men to die, and live again, and then die again; there have been some extraordinary instances of this kind, but they are rare; it is the statute law of heaven in common for men to die and that but once; --John Gill |

Thanks for the commentary by Gill. when I said I did not want a technical obvious answer I was refering to someone pointing out that in Deuteronomt34:5,6 it says Moses died and was burried. Because I did include Moses in my original inquiry. | ||||||
