122 | I remember reading a passage where it sa | Gen 25:21 | meusing | 47839 | ||
Rebekah, wife of Isaac, was the mother of Jacob. God later changed his name to Israel. Gen. 32:38. | ||||||
123 | men Gerar keep stirving with Isaac | Gen 26:19 | meusing | 44023 | ||
Basicly, there is opposition by others to whatever you do. Matthew Henry' Concise commentary says .. 18-25 Isaac met with much opposition in digging wells. Two were called Contention and Hatred. See the nature of worldly things; they make quarrels, and are occasions of strife; and what is often the lot of the most quiet and peaceable; those who avoid striving, yet cannot avoid being striven with. And what a mercy it is to have plenty of water; to have it without striving for it! The more common this mercy is, the more reason to be thankful for it. At length Isaac digged a well, for which they strove not. Those that study to be quiet, seldom fail of being so. When men are false and unkind, still God is faithful and gracious; and his time to show himself so is, when we are most disappointed by men. The same night that Isaac came weary and uneasy to Beer-sheba, God brought comforts to his soul. Those may remove with comfort who are sure of God's presence |

125 | What Book ofthe bible means going forth? | Ex 1:1 | meusing | 39370 | ||
John Gill explained : This book is called by the Jews Veelleh Shemoth, from the first words with which it begins, and sometimes Sepher Shemoth, and sometimes only Shemoth. It is by the Septuagint called Exodus, from whom we have the name of Exodus, which signifies "a going out"; see #Lu 9:31, because it treats of the going of the children of Israel out of Egypt; and hence in the Alexandrian copy it is called the Exodus of Egypt; and so the Syriac version entitles it the second book of the law, called "the going out"; and to the same purpose the Arabic version. |

126 | Sin defined by gentiles? | Ex 20:2 | meusing | 43115 | ||
No, the children of Israel were cohsen by God to show Him to the Gentiles the 10 commandments were part of the covenant that God mad with the children of Israel. Rom 2:11 For God shows no partiality [undue favor or unfairness; with Him one man is not different from another]. [Deut. 10:17; II Chron. 19:7.] Rom 2:12 All who have sinned without the Law will also perish without [regard to] the Law, and all who have sinned under the Law will be judged and condemned by the Law. Rom 2:13 For it is not merely hearing the Law [read] that makes one righteous before God, but it is the doers of the Law who will be held guiltless and acquitted and justified. Rom 2:14 When Gentiles who have not the [divine] Law do instinctively what the Law requires, they are a law to themselves, since they do not have the Law. Rom 2:15 They show that the essential requirements of the Law are written in their hearts and are operating there, with which their consciences (sense of right and wrong) also bear witness; and their [moral] decisions (their arguments of reason, their condemning or approving thoughts) will accuse or perhaps defend and excuse [them] |

127 | 1 Cor 10:11 | Ex 20:2 | meusing | 43175 | ||
1 Cor 10:6 Now these things are examples (warnings and admonitions) for us not to desire or crave or covet or lust after evil and carnal things as they did. [Num. 11:4, 34.] As in Numbers he shows us what we are in the sight of God, and warns us against using that (position) as grounds to sin. And he gives us confidence ... 1 Cor 10:13 For no temptation (no trial regarded as enticing to sin), [no matter how it comes or where it leads] has overtaken you and laid hold on you that is not common to man [that is, no temptation or trial has come to you that is beyond human resistance and that is not adjusted and adapted and belonging to human experience, and such as man can bear]. But God is faithful [to His Word and to His compassionate nature], and He [can be trusted] not to let you be tempted and tried and assayed beyond your ability and strength of resistance and power to endure, but with the temptation He will [always] also provide the way out (the means of escape to a landing place), that you may be capable and strong and powerful to bear up under it patiently. Romans 1, 2, and 3 show that no one can keep from sinning, we are all guity and it is through the sacrifce and resurection of Jesus that we are saved. |

130 | When did God make a cov. wth the Haida? | Ex 31:14 | meusing | 44300 | ||
so, why should the haida indians celebrate passover and the feast of tabernacles as well as the other feasts? The Bible says the old covenent was made with The children of israel. Jesus made a new covenant in His blood which is for all people. this covenant is a covenant of grace. These are His terms. Rom 1:5 It is through Him that we have received grace (God's unmerited favor) and [our] apostleship to promote obedience to the faith and make disciples for His name's sake among all the nations, Rom 1:6 And this includes you, called of Jesus Christ and invited [as you are] to belong to Him. Rom 1:17 For in the Gospel a righteousness which God ascribes is revealed, both springing from faith and leading to faith [disclosed through the way of faith that arouses to more faith]. As it is written, The man who through faith is just and upright shall live and shall live by faith. [Hab. 2:4.] so, shall we live by works or by faith? |

131 | What is Gods mercy? | Ex 33:19 | meusing | 62737 | ||
(1) Mercy is (a) an essential quality of God (Exo 34:6, Exo 34:7; Deu 4:31; Psa 62:12, etc.); it is His delight (Mic 7:18, Mic 7:20; Psa 52:8); He is "the Father of mercies" (2Co_1:3), "rich in mercy" (Eph 2:4), “full of pity, and merciful” (Jam 5:11); (b) it is associated with forgiveness (Exo 34:7; Num 14:18; 1Ti 1:13, 1Ti 1:16); (c) with His forbearance (Psa 145:8, “Yahweh is gracious and merciful, slow to anger and of great lovingkindness”; compare Roman 2:4; 11:32); (d) with His covenant (1Ki 8:23; Neh 1:5), with His justice (Psa 101:1), with His faithfulness (Psa 89:24), with His truth (Psa 108:4); mercy and truth are united in Pro 3:3; Pro 14:22, etc. (in Psa 85:10 we have “Mercy and truth are met together”); (e) it goes forth to all (Psa 145:9, “Yahweh is good to all; and his tender mercies are over all his works”; compare Psa 145:16, “Thou openest thine hand, and satisfiest the desire of every living thing,” the Revised Version margin “satisfiest every living thing with favor”); (f) it shows itself in pitying help (Exo 3:7; Ezr 9:9 f), supremely in Christ and His salvation (Luk 1:50, Luk 1:54, Luk 1:58; Eph 2:4); (g) it is abundant, practically infinite (Psa 86:5, Psa 86:15; Psa 119:64); (h) it is everlasting (1Ch 16:34, 1Ch 16:41; Ezr 3:11; Psa 100:5; 136 repeatedly). |

137 | Does God punisg women for divorce? | Num 5:31 | meusing | 39128 | ||
We are all guilty before God and deserve punishment, Isa 53:5 But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed. 6 All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the LORD hath laid on him the iniquity of us all. |

138 | Does God punisg women for divorce? | Num 5:31 | meusing | 39191 | ||
I was responding to the question as to whether "God won't punish men for their wrongdoings of any kind? He will only punish women? " which seems to be in the present tense. I was showing we all deserve punishment, men and women. I was just sowing that Jesus took the punishment that we (men and women both) deserve on Himself. You are right, the context is about a woman caught in adultary and a jealous husband. Throughout the prophets the LORD uses the type of the unfaithful wife (Israel and Judah) and the jealous husband (the LORD) to show cause for punishment and also mercy (Hosea). But, I was responding to the ' God won't punish men, he will only punish women ' question. |

139 | Numbers 12 thesis | Num 12:1 | meusing | 163689 | ||
Hi, I am not sure of what you intend to cover, but this might help. C. H. MacKintosh sugests seeing chapter 12 in two ways; one typical, the other practcal. He says, "In the union of Moses with "the Ethiopian woman," we have a type of that great and marvellous mystery, the union of the Church with Christ her Head. This subject has come before us in our study of the Book of Exodus; but we see it here, in a peculiar light, as that which evokes the enmity of Aaron and Miriam. the sovereign actings of grace draw forth the opposition of those who stand upon the ground of natural relationship and fleshly privilege." Darby's synopsis of the chapter is: "Num 12:1-16 - After that (for what form will not rebellion assume?) Miriam and Aaron speak against Moses. It is the prophetess and the priest (one who has the word from God and access to God, the twofold character of the people of God), who rise up against him who is king in Jeshurun, with whom God speaks as unto His friend. In this Moses is in all respects a type of Christ, who stands personally outside the rights which grace has conferred upon the people. Faithful in all the house of God, he enjoys close intercourse with Him. Miriam and Aaron ought to have been afraid. The excuse of the two rebels was, that Moses had taken an Ethiopian woman-a blessed sign for us of the sovereignty of grace which has introduced into the blessing of Christ those who had no right or title to it. The people of God, whatever their privileges, ought to have recognised this sovereignty. Israel would not, and was smitten with leprosy. It is, however, in their character of witness or prophet that they suffer this chastening. Aaron resumes his place of intercessor, and speaks humbly to Moses (a figure, I think, of the humiliation of Israel, grounded on the value of the intercession of Christ, identifying Himself with the position of the people). God's answer is, that Miriam should be humbled and chastened, shut out, for a time, from intercourse with Him, then restored to favour again. The people wait for her restoration. Let us remember that the Lord here recalls this fact, that the most glorious position for Moses was that when he was separated from the people-when he pitched his tent without the camp, and called it the tabernacle of the congregation or meeting. The people had but too much forgotten this. When the members of the church also, in the thought of making themselves spiritual, take advantage of their glory and position as prophets and priests (characters which do indeed belong to them), to disown the rights of Christ, as king in Jeshurun, having authority over the house of God, there is room for considering whether they are not guilty of the rebellion here spoken of. For my part, I believe they are." |

you asked this before. Searcher answered your question Scripture ... Num 27:12-23 ... HappyGirl2323, Because God had not commanded Moses to make Joshua a leader until now. Do you remember what happened when others tried to lead? Hope this helps, Searcher ------------- Also, Moses was of the tribe of Levi. Joshua was not, so he could not serve in the tabernacle. |
