1 | Rapture explaination | 1 Thess 4:17 | valarie | 114527 | ||
I teach a small Bible study class, in a public school, to alternative education students. Please guide to me to basic scriptures explaining the "rapture." I've explained to them that there are terms we use that aren't in the Bible, but the evidence of Jesus' return is scriptural | ||||||
2 | Rapture explaination | 1 Thess 4:17 | Emmaus | 114528 | ||
The English word rapture is not found in English translations of 1 Thessalonians 4:17. Rapture is a transliteration of "rapiemur" in the Latin Vulgate New Testament of St. Jerome. 1 Thes 4:17 deinde nos qui vivimus qui relinquimur simul rapiemur cum illis in nubibus obviam Domino in aera. Recent "rapture" theology, apart from the basic doctrine of the "Second Coming" is a whole other discussion and only about one hundred years old and is generally attributed to a man named Darby. |
