good morning azure: i just noticed your note that asked for rephrasing of this forum user's question. when i considered the question i assumed, maybe incorrectly, that it was from someone who speaks hawaiian pidgin and was using "Da Jesus Book", which is Wycliffe's translation of the New Testament into pidgin. if so, the question stands on its own and does not require rephrasing. although the forum's Q and As are best addressed in english, i thought that Pidgin, although technically another language, was close enough to be understood. perhaps i am mistaken. God bless you! |

10 | Genesis 1:1 | Gen 1:1 | bible believer | 201276 | ||
in the original text, the word "beginning" is, re’shiyth(pronounced ray-sheeth). this word means exactly what you would think.....first or start.....the real question to consider is "beginning of what?" regarding Genesis 1:1, commentators that i have studied seem to fall into 1 of 2 camps. 1)Genesis 1:1 refers to the beginning of the sequence of creation, depicting God bringing the heavens and the earth into existence before the rest of the events of the chapter; or 2) Genesis 1:1 summarizes the following 6 days and is therefore a statement explaining the start of the process and activities which follow. a difficulty you might encounter in the first interpretation (opinion #1) of Genesis 1:1 is the contrast between the lack of commentary for what would be the initial act of creation compared with the consistent pattern that holds for the rest of creation week. for example, there's none of the “God said .. and it happened” sequence for this most spectacular event. i'm not convinced that this tension would necessarily eliminate this opinion. taking Genesis 1:1 as a summary of the verses that follow,(opinion #2) eliminates this literary tension. also, to summarize prior to providing the details being summarized is a literary technique occasionally employed by OT writers. there is a third, less credible opinion in this matter (and perhaps others as well that i'm not aware of). this third opinion is that the "beginning" refers to the shaping of a pre-existent planet into one which would support life. to my knowledge, there is no Biblical support for this opinion that our planet existed prior to the Genesis days of Creation. what is most important in all of this however, is to know that it was God who created the heavens and the earth rather than some interplanetary, explosive event! i pray that this answer provided some assistance in your study of God's word. i will be interested in seeing the input of my brothers and sisters. God bless you! |

12 | Adam to distinguish animals and humans | Gen 1:26 | bible believer | 201624 | ||
good morning queendee: our sister azure's earlier answer addresses this question as well. i humbly add that the function of "naming" something in Biblical times conveyed an element of authority or responsibility for whomever/whatever was being named. in the instance of Adam naming the animals, it was not so that he could distinguish (physically) "animal form from human form" as you suggest, but naming the animals supported God's instruction to Adam to have dominion (authority) over them. I hope this information was helpful to you as you continue to study God's word. |

13 | we need to follow the book of leviticus? | Leviticus | bible believer | 201266 | ||
good afternoon: the book of Leviticus is rich with the wisdom of God on many, many subjects. those subjects include (but are not limited to) disease control to diet; from ordination to offerings! was there a particular passage/verse/instruction that has you scratching your head? if so, i suggest you narrow down your question so that you might receive the most specific and helpful answer. God bless you as you continue to study His word. |

15 | Ruth2 y did Boaz redeem Ruth not Naomi? | Ruth 3:9 | bible believer | 200138 | ||
hi there tor: in the book of ruth, the "kinsman-redeemer" (boaz) actually redeemed the LAND that had been owned by naomi's husband's family. the word “kinsman” in hebrew is “goel” and refers to a “close relative who acts as a protector or guarantor of family rights.” boaz's family relationship to naomi's husband is what entitled him to redeem the land and return it to naomi. what boaz did with ruth came as a result of ruth's comment in chapter 3:9b--"I am your servant Ruth," she said. "spread the corner of your garment over me, since you are a kinsman-redeemer." when an ancient hebrew man married his wife, at the end of the wedding ceremony he would draw the corners of his outer garment over her head, symbolically covering her with his protection. when ruth went to boaz and asked that the corner of his garment be spread over her, she was requesting God’s “covering” and protection in her life! (see Deut 25:5-6) this custom of a close relative (brother) marrying his relative's widow in order to carry on the family name is referred to as “levirate marriage”. so........what boaz and ruth had falls under the category of levirate marriage; his redemption of the property came as a result of him being a kinsman redeemer. hope this info is of help to you. God bless! |

16 | flower to king solomon by queen of sheba | 1 Kin 10:1 | bible believer | 200719 | ||
the "Targum Sheni", "Midrash Mischle", and "Midrash Hachefez" all ancient Jewish texts, contain this and other "riddles" that the queen of sheba supposedly presented to king solomon. the Bible, however, does not mention this but states that sheba, having heard of solomon's wisdom, posed difficult questions to him. there are only two references in the Old Testament, and two references in the New Testament describing the queen of sheba's visit to King solomon. The Old Testament says she came "to prove him with difficult questions", but none of the questions are mentioned. in the New Testament, Jesus, in comparing himself to solomon, praises "the Queen of the South" for her determination. if sheba did present this (or other) riddles to solomon, the Bible is silent about it. |

17 | in what year did the united kingdom divi | 1 Kin 11:31 | bible believer | 201820 | ||
good afternoon esther21: Jeroboam's rebellion against king Solomon is believed to have taken place c.930 BC. the kingdom remained divided until c.586 BC with the fall of Jerusalem. it wasn't until c. 538 BC that the first exiles returned to Jerusalem. there is much archeological evidence in support of these dates (approximations)which is exciting and serves to validate the truth of God's word!! i hope this information is of help to you as you continue to study His word. |

18 | who are king david's brothers | 1 Chr 2:13 | bible believer | 201252 | ||
i "googled" david's brothers and this information was provided from a website specializing in Old Testament information. i'm anticipating it will be helpful to you. i'd recommend further study of these men by looking them up, one by one, in a subject index in your Bible. there you'll find all references to when they are each named in the Bible with any associated information. ........................ King David's first six brothers are listed in 1 Chronicles 2:13-15: Eliab, Abinadab, Shimea, Nethanel, Raddai and Ozem. His other brother is not named anywhere in the Bible. Elsewhere, we learn that David had a brother named Elihu (1 Chr. 27:18), which may be the name of his seventh brother, or which may simply be a variant form of "Eliab." Also, the Bible speaks of "Shammah/Shimeah/Shimei" as David's brother, but all these are most likely variants of "Shimea" (without doubt this is the case with at least "Shammah" [1 Sam. 17:13]). If his seventh brother is not named in the genealogies, it may be because he died without children. |

19 | Meaning of 25th of Elul -Nehemiah 6:15 | Neh 6:15 | bible believer | 200494 | ||
hi layldr: elul is the 12th month of the jewish civil calendar. the month of elul is a time of repentance in preparation for the high holy days of rosh hashanah and yom kippur. in aramaic (the language spoken by jews living at the time that the months were given names), the word “elul” means “search.” elul is seen as a time to search one's heart in preparation for the coming day of judgement, rosh hashanah, and day of atonement, yom kippur. hope this info helps. |

20 | what is the history of psalm 50 | Ps 50:1 | bible believer | 201506 | ||
good afternoon: i'm not quite sure what you are really asking for when you ask for "the history of psalm 50" but i'm assuming that you might be asking about its meaning and/or writer. the following comes from Matthew Henry's Commentary but there are many, many excellent commentaries to be found on line and elsewhere. "This psalm, as the former (psalm), is a psalm of instruction, not of prayer or praise; it is a psalm of reproof and admonition, in singing which we are to teach and admonish one another. In the foregoing psalm, after a general demand of attention, God by his prophet deals (ver. 3) with the children of this world, to convince them of their sin and folly in setting their hearts upon the wealth of this world; in this psalm, after a like preface, he deals with those that were, in profession, the church's children, to convince them of their sin and folly in placing their religion in ritual services, while they neglected practical godliness; and this is as sure a way to ruin as the other. This psalm is intended, 1. As a proof to the carnal Jews, both those that rested in the external performances of their religion, and were remiss in the more excellent duties of prayer and praise, and those that expounded the law to others, but lived wicked lives themselves. 2. As a prediction of the abolishing of the ceremonial law, and of the introducing of a spiritual way of worship in and by the kingdom of the Messiah, John iv. 23, 24. 3. As a representation of the day of judgment, in which God will call men to an account concerning their observance of those things which they have thus been taught." Matthew Henry's Commentary on the Whole Bible this psalm is attributed to "Asaph" (or one of his descendants). Asaph was one of King David's 3 choir leaders. he (or a descendant) is also credited with psalms 73-83). hope this info is helpful. God bless you as you continue to study God's word. |
