1 | Why was Jesus a carpenter? | NT general | notlost | 231411 | ||
Can you think of any other reason why the Father would want Jesus to be a carpenter? 1. To cause Him to focus on the cross. 2. To add to His human suffering as He drove nails or chipped stone. 3. To (somehow) bring Him to the level of obedience that would be needed at the cross. |

2 | Nailing up a debt in public view. | Bible general Archive 4 | notlost | 231409 | ||
Was there a practice in ancient Israel of a poor person nailing up a debt, in public view, in hopes that a rich man would fold the paper over and write his name on it, thereby signifying that he would pay the debt? If so, is that the thought in Isaiah 40:2? |

3 | Do sinners have at least some guilt. | OT general | notlost | 231027 | ||
Did the Jews of Isaiah's day realize they were sinners? I know they were sinners and I know Isaiah told them they were sinners, I think they knew they were sinners, but a pastor told me he is convinced they did not think they were sinners. Did they not have a conscience and guilt feelings about something? |

4 | LORD vs. Lord from Septuagint | Ex 3:14 | notlost | 230915 | ||
Why do most modern translations, NASB, NIV, ESV distinguish between Jehovah and Adonai in Psalm 110:1 but not in Matthew 22:44. I understand that the NT is translated from the Septuagint, but the KJV distinguishes in both OT and NT. | ||||||
5 | I knew I was a sinner before I was saved | Is 58:2 | notlost | 230570 | ||
Let me try this differently. A pastor recently said that he is convinced the Jews of Isaiah's time did not know they were sinners. (The 'Jews', I suppose, would mean all or most of the Jews.) So my question is, how can this be if God gave each of us a conscience. For example, to me Isaiah knew he was a sinner before he encountered God in Chapter 6, and after that encounter with the holy God he REALLY knew he was a sinner. I would think that, because of the conscience, most of those Jews knew they were sinners, although they may not have thought their sin disqualified them from eternal life. IF, as the pastor thinks, they actually did not know or think they were sinners, I would also think that would disqualify them from obtaining salvation. | ||||||
6 | Were the Jews doomed? | Is 58:2 | notlost | 230567 | ||
If they (each Jew) did not know they were sinners, they had no chance of salvation. Does this, then, speak to Calvanism? | ||||||
7 | did the Jews know they were sinners | Is 58:2 | notlost | 230564 | ||
Re: Isaiah 1 and 6 (and any other Scriptures you think apply). Did the Jews of Isaiah's day realize they were sinners? |
