Scripture ... Mark 7:4, Luke 11:38, 1Co 10:2, Heb 9:10, Rev 19:13 ... Gen 37:21, Exo 12:22, 2 Ki 5:14 … God's day to you, InJesus, This is a repost of mine. Let me add something you may never hear from someone who grew up as a "Baptist", who thought baptism means immersion. While 74 times baptize and its kin is translated baptize, baptism, et al, (never immersion) there are four verses, where it is translated washing/ washed. -- Mark 7:4 says “And when they come from the market, except they wash, they eat not. And many other things there be, which they have received to hold, as the washing of cups, and pots, brasen vessels, and of tables” (KJV). Some translations leave "tables" out. It could be that they view baptism as being dipped or immersed. It would be hard to dip or immerse tables to clean them. Nonetheless, the people did not immerse themselves they come from the market … they probably dipped in, poured over or washed part of their body. -- Luke 11:38 says, “And when the Pharisee saw it, he marveled that he had not first washed before dinner.” -- Hebrews 9:10 says, “various washings”, which I believe is ceremonial, as with the other verses. -- Revelation 19:13, where a derivative of the word bapto is used, as well as all of the other verses where we find the words bapto or embapto, give us no clue as to the meaning of the word "baptism." The Hebrews baptized in sea (1Co 10:2), but did any get wet? In the Septuagint the verb is Tabal … in 2 Kings 5:14, of Naaman's dipped himself in Jordan (cf Gen 37:21, Exo 12:22) … In Leviticus there are 6 times this word is used (4:6; 4:17; 9:9; 14:6; 14:16; 14:51) Searcher |
