1 | How many Lazarus were there in the Bible | NT general Archive 1 | DBR | 127865 | ||
LAZARUS (Laz´a·rus) [probably the Gr. form of the Heb. name Eleazar, meaning “God Has Helped”]. 1. The brother of Martha and Mary; his resurrection was one of the outstanding miracles performed by Jesus Christ. (Joh 11:1, 2) Jesus had a deep love for this family living at Bethany, “about two miles” from Jerusalem on the road to Jericho. (Joh 11:5, 18, ftn) He had been entertained at their home, perhaps frequently.—Lu 10:38-42. 2. The name given to the beggar in Jesus’ illustration commonly known as the parable of the rich man and Lazarus. (Lu 16:19-31) In the Vulgate the word “rich” has been rendered by the Latin adjective dives, which is often mistakenly used as the proper name of the rich man. However, the Jewish name Lazarus itself was common in ancient times, a fact borne out by ossuary inscriptions. DBR |

2 | How do you explain? | Gen 1:31 | DBR | 127208 | ||
There was a time when sin was not Romans 5:12 That is why, just as through one man sin entered into the world and death through . . . but not so now as all humans are from Adam and Eve under the influance of Satan The Devil. I did not say Jesus was Killed I said Murdered which is to take like AGAINST THE LAW, Mosaic in this case, Jesus did nothing for which to die from God's view, he was perfectly faithful hence his postion as the rensom etc., it was the wicked under the influance of the Devil that put him to death Just a God fortold wopuld happen as He knows that the wicked will try do anything to his will being done, but they will not win, ultimatly they will fail as in Jesus case, God ressutected him.

3 | Why two dreams instead of only one? | Gen 41:25 | DBR | 128016 | ||
Two. The number two frequently appears in a legal setting. Agreement in the accounts of two witnesses adds to the force of the testimony. Two witnesses, or even three, were required to establish a matter before the judges. This principle is also followed in the Christian congregation. (De 17:6; 19:15; Mt 18:16; 2Co 13:1; 1Ti 5:19; Heb 10:28) God adhered to this principle in presenting his Son to the people as mankind’s Savior. Jesus said: “In your own Law it is written, ‘The witness of two men is true.’ I am one that bears witness about myself, and the Father who sent me bears witness about me.”—Joh 8:17, 18. Doing something a second time—for example, repetition of a statement or vision, even in only a parallel way—firmly established the matter as sure and true (as in Pharaoh’s dream of the cows and the ears of grain; Ge 41:32). Biblical Hebrew poetry is full of thought parallelism, which establishes more firmly in mind the truths stated and at the same time clarifies matters by the variety of wording in the parallelism.—See Ps 2, 44, and others. In Daniel’s prophecy a certain beast’s having “two horns” symbolized duality in rulership of the Medo-Persian Empire.—Da 8:20, 21; compare Re 13:11. What do you think? DBR |

4 | John8:24 and John8:57-58 | Ex 3:14 | DBR | 127143 | ||
Here is what the Septugint says at Ex 3:14, that is said to be from where Jesus quoted from: English translation of the LXX And God spoke to Moses, saying, I am THE BEING; and he said, Thus shall ye say to the children of Israel, THE BEING has sent me to you. Notice the emphisis is on "The Being" not "I am" or God called himself "THE BEING." Thank you for your interest and all who have helped me with my questions. DBR |

I agree but then the same can be said about all Bible translations today as they all are copies of copies etc. of the original inspired text that was first penned but no longer exists now. | ||||||

9 | YHWH, God's only name | Ex 3:14 | DBR | 127504 | ||
I agree with you as this is seen in the KJV 1611 Edition of the Holy Bible at Psalm 83 (LXXXIII) vs 18:- "That men knowe, that thou whose name is IEHOVAH: art the most High ouer all the earth." And:- THE NAME OF GOD THE FATHER "The NAME of God is described as his holy name more often than all other adjectival qualifications taken together. It was this sense of the sacredness of the name that finally led to the obtuse refusal to use 'Yahweh', leading as it has done to a deep lose of sense of the divine name in EV (with the notable exception of the J.B.). The holiness of the name, however, does not remove if from use but from abuse: this is the reason why revelation of the divine name must never confused with any thought of magical power with the divine. Far from man being able to use the name to control God, it is the name which controls man, both in worship Godward (e.g. Lv 18:21) and in service manward (e.g. Rom 1:5). The NAME is thus the motive of service; it is also the message (e.g. Acts 9:15), and the means of power (e.g. Acts 3:16; 4:12)."-'NEW BIBLE DICTIONARY', second edition p.813, also see p.430 DBR |

KJV Num 31:28 And levy a tribute unto the Lord of the men of war which went out to battle: one soul of five hundred, both of the persons, and of the beeves, and of the asses, and of the sheep: KJV Job 12:10 In whose hand is the soul of every living thing, and the breath of all mankind. AMP Job 12:10 In His hand is the life of every living thing and the breath of all mankind. It would seem in the above texts from Numbers and Job they the Bible does call animal souls, but in the sense that they are souls not that they have an immortal soul or "soul" can be another word for "life" (living things) when we x-ref KJV and AMP of Job 12:10.

12 | infant death | Is 7:16 | DBR | 127577 | ||
What doe logic say, the same person that died must be resurrected, e.g. if a 50 yr old died then surely a 50yr old would be resorted as that is what they are, so if a 10yr old died the a 10yr old must be resurrected as they is what they are anything other than that cannot be the same person, is that not so? e.g. Lazarus was resurrected Lazarus as with all the resurrections recorded in the Bible including the ones that where young children, they contunued growing into adulthood as far as we know.

I put down what the scriptures say to me, you may or may not agree. At Revelation 20:12-14 is recorded John’s vision of the earthly resurrection: “I saw the dead, the great and the small, standing before the throne, and scrolls were opened. But another scroll was opened; it is the scroll of life. And the dead were judged out of those things written in the scrolls according to their deeds. And the sea gave up those dead in it, and death and Hades gave up those dead in them, and they were judged individually according to their deeds. And death and Hades were hurled into the lake of fire. This means the second death, the lake of fire.” I would seem that some mentioned in the above have need of judgment as they have made thier mind up on somthing that God has to judge. DBR |

Psalm 37:29 The righteous themselves will possess the earth, And they will reside forever upon it. Prov 2 For the upright are the ones that will reside in the earth, and the blameless are the ones that will be left over in it. Proverbs 2:20-22 The purpose is that you may walk in the way of good people and that the paths of the righteous ones you may keep. 21 For the upright are the ones that will reside in the earth, and the blameless are the ones that will be left over in it. 22 As regards the wicked, they will be cut off from the very earth; and as for the treacherous, they will be torn away from it. This seems to speak of and earthly judgment to me and as the scriptures clearly state the unrighteous will be brought back they cannot go into heaven as they are unrighteous so in would appear that the only place left would be this earth and as ignorance can be a defence with the Loving God of the Bible then it would seem that further opportunities must be available other why not leave the unrighteous dead dead, why else bring them back, it seem logical to me. I know you as Hank and you make some interesting comments some I agree with some I do not, you know me as DBR I made some comments you may agree with and some you may not, like the 1st century Christians had their views so do we but it the Bible that matters you and I in fact all of us are at best worthless speck of dust but, what the Bible say that’s everything, that’s enough for me.

Looking a long way back in time in the below would cover the long dead as they can well be included in the time scale coverd by Pauls comment. Acts 17:29-30 “Seeing, therefore, that we are the progeny of God, we ought not to imagine that the Divine Being is like gold or silver or stone, like something sculptured by the art and contrivance of man. 30 True, God has overlooked the times of such ignorance, yet now he is telling mankind that they should all everywhere repent. Daniel 12:2 And there will be many of those asleep in the ground of dust who will wake up, these to indefinitely lasting life and those to reproaches [and] to indefinitely lasting abhorrence. Thus to be judged for good or bad John 5:28 Do not marvel at this, because the hour is coming in which ALL those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice "ALL" in the above would seem to indiscriminate as to weither they are good or bad.

So they then need an opportunity to be able to make a choice and this could only come if they where brought back and given the opportunity to be able to make it? As God is Love, what would you do in his place having all power at your fingertips, so to speak, with those who are innocent through no fault of their own, as we are made in his image having the ability to reflect his love?

You are right when you say "plainly states" but this is what the Jews thought. Martha’s words at the time of Lazarus’ death are of interest here, for at that time God-fearing Jews had no hope other than an earthly resurrection. Martha’s faith was expressed in the words:- John 11:24 Martha said to Him, "I know that he will rise again in the resurrection on the last day." put with what is said at Ps 37:29 The righteous will inherit the land And dwell in it forever. It seems that the idea is powerfuly hinted at in the scriptures DBR |
