Thanks for the reference. Paul appears to have intended to make the animal sacrifices from the moment he took the vow because he kept the hair cut in another country (Acts 18:18) that he would need in the temple and in Acts 24:17 he indicates presenting offerings (the animal sacrifices specified in Num 6:14 an other things in 6:15) was one of the reasons for making the trip. | ||||||

The alms and offerings mentioned in act 24:17 are the offerings that Paul collected to help the church in Jerusalem spoken about 1 Cor 16:1-4 and Romans 15:25 Actually cutting of the hair in other than the outer court of the temple was a violation of the Nazirite vow. In the Nazirite vow the person making the vow does not cut his hair. Upon completion of the vow, the vow maker is to purify himself and offer sacrifices. One of the sacrifices was to cut their hair in the outer court of the temple and then offer that hair as a burnt peace offering. Paul made a vow and apparently shaved his head. This was not a true Nazirite vow. Then upon his arrivial the Judaizers accused him of violating the law of Moses and his friends advised him to join the 4 guys that WERE COMPLETING a true Nazirite vow. Bad advice! |

Are there any sources referenced in MacArthur's quote? | ||||||

I'm guessing you mean in relation to the hair being cut as far as when, where and etc. Numbers 6:13-20 explains the process in fairly full detail. |

I meant his extrabibilical sources to support the statement: "In Paul’s day, if someone made the vow while away from Jerusalem, at the termination of his vow he would shave his head, as Paul did, and afterwards present the shorn hair at the temple within 30 days." | ||||||

No I double checked and there is no notation to his source of information on this subject. The note is found in MacArthur's Study Bible for verse Acts 18:18. I did howevrer look in MacArthur's New Testament Commentary which read very similar. "In Paul's day, provision was made for those away from Jerusalem at the termination of their vow to shave their heads, as Paul did, then within thirty days present the hair at the Temple (cf. Josephus Wars, 2.15.1). The phrase he was keeping a vow indicates a process not yet completed. That required his arrival in Jerusalem." MacArthur New Testament Commentary, The - MacArthur New Testament Commentary – Acts 13-28. Here He references Josephus Wars 2.15.1 |

Edb, Are you saying that MacArthur's Study Bible is more important than God's Word?? I know you know a commentary is that person's way of thinking (I don't mean to insult your intelligence) Let's go your route what does it say about Gen 2:1-4 and I will not list the rest of the scriptures becuase I assume you know them, but if you don't I'll post them for you. So do I understand you to say that the bible is wrong?? It plainly says Jesus' custom was to read on the Sabbath Day that's black and white; by the way did you double check the bible?? on that verse? |
