Greetings JMScott! My friend, I think you are making too much of a name. Check out the Bible: 1 Chronicles 7:27, Num. 1:10, and Num. 13:8 all detail that Joshua's father was Nun. Nun's father was Elishama. All of them were descendents of Ephraim, Joseph's son. The difference between Jesus and Joshua is simple, the Bible says that people thought Jesus was Jospeph's son, but the Bible says that Joshua was the son of Nun. Of course Joshua's name is based upon the word for 'Yahweh'. It simply means "Yahweh saves". My own name, Timothy, means "honoring God". It was not uncommon in those days to change a person's name in order to reflect that person's character or changed circumstances. Remember Abram, who became Abraham. Exodus 33 never says that Moses went into the tabernacle alone. Therefore, the only evidence we have is v. 11, which states that Joshua did not leave the tabernacle when Moses left it. Don't get me wrong! I believe that God was present with His people, but Joshua was just a man. Concerning John 10:17-18, there is nothing in the text that Jesus was dying for a second time. Notice the phrasing, "I lay down my life, that I may take it again." 'That' indicates purpose. He laid down His life for a purpose. The purpose was so that "He could take it again". He couldn't take it again unless He laid it down. The again doesn't indicate a second time. Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |

Greetings JMScott! Let's look at how the word is actually used in Scripture. 1) Mt. 4:7 (KJV and Greek): "Jesus said unto him, It is written again, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God." How many times was it written? 2) Mt. 4:8 - "Again, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high mountain, and sheweth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them;" How many times had Satan taken Him up to a high mountain? 3) Mt. 19:24 - "And again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God." How many times did Jesus make this statement in Mt. 19? Clearly the word 'again' does not always refer two events. In John, Jesus refers to taking His life back after laying it down. 'Again' refers to His purpose for laying it down, not to two seperate events where He layed it down and took it back. The word 'palin' or 'again' is used in 5 distict ways in the New Testament. They include: back, return, therefore, again, and even in lists of similar items. Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
