1 | acts 2:23-34 | Acts 2:23 | brotherreverb | 62685 | ||
David filled with the Holy Spirit was a prophet as well as a psalmist. Alot of His psalms were actually prophecies about the future although I do not know if he knew it was only about his life or someone elses too. When David spoke: "For you will not leave my soul in Hades, Nor will you let your Holy one see corruption." He was actually referring to the life of Jesus who during his time after the crucifixion and before he ressurected. Hades is the "land of the dead" and corruption is the rot of his physical body. Jesus was brought out of death-state-spiritual land of dead (wheree he got given the keys of death and hell by God) to his body before the body began to decompose. The word refers to the places of the dead spirits as a hot hot fire or "the bosom of Abraham" which was a place for the saints to wait. David was in the bosom of Abraham. Luke 16:9-31 (23). The words David spoke were somehow the exact words Jesus spoke-thought when he found himself living thru the events. It may have been a suprise even for him, I dont know. Perhaps Jesus himself wonders and awes at the Power of Yahweh. | ||||||
2 | Aaron's father's name? | Ex 2:1 | brotherreverb | 62682 | ||
Ex 2:1 doesnt make a clear reference to him, and he was a Levite therefore not decended from Judah because Levi was a brother to Judah. Matthew 1:3-5 Luke 3:32,33. Moses and Aaron were brothers and were definately after Judah who begot Perez who begot Hezron, and before Jesse the father of King David. Moses and Aaron would probably be around the Hezron-Ram-Amminadab times. They are clearly not the direct line of Jesus. (However, possibly since it only mentions the direct line and not the siblings, or the women involved. During the wild years when some Hebrews married out of their tribe, perhaps one or more of the women married to the direct male line might have been in some way from back to the Levite line (indirectly). This cannot of course be proven until we have the big reunion at the party ahead. | ||||||
3 | Why Sheol / Hades mistranslated as Hell? | Acts 2:31 | brotherreverb | 62678 | ||
I heard sheol was a burning dump place outside of town where garbage was burnt in Israel. If one was really poor or condemned they sometimes would throw the body right into the dump without burial. Hades was the Greek land of the dead out of their mythology-beliefs (Orpheus). It was where all dead spirits went after life was over. Greek culture and Jewish culture was similiar, they traded and interracted, thus language also blended. The subtle change from "burning dump of death (sheol)" to "hell" (etherial fires described by Jesus where he had said disobediant hedonists suffered condemnation (rich man-lazarus)) is easy to see. Also "Land of dead soul-spirits after body dies(Hades)" is easy to be subtly referred to as "grave" meaning "Where u go when you no longer live in your body. Your relatives bury you". Language is metaphorical and often poetic-symbolic license is used to switch words. I hope this helps you see what you were asking. | ||||||
