147 | forbidden to mary stepmother | Lev 20:11 | Michael Draves | 148862 | ||
Lev 20:11 'If there is a man who lies with his father's wife, he has uncovered his father's nakedness; both of them shall surely be put to death, their bloodguiltiness is upon them. 1 Corinthians 5:1 It is actually reported that there is immorality among you, and immorality of such a kind as does not exist even among the Gentiles, that someone has his father's wife. Leviticus 18:8 You shall not uncover the nakedness of your father's wife; it is your father's nakedness. Deuteronomy 22:30 A man shall not take his father's wife so that he will not uncover his father's skirt. Deuteronomy 27:20 Cursed is he who lies with his father's wife, because he has uncovered his father's skirt.' And all the people shall say, 'Amen.' |

It is the place for the Spirit of God to dwell. 1 Cor 3:16 Do you not know that you are a temple of God and that the Spirit of God dwells in you? 1 Cor 3:17 If any man destroys the temple of God, God will destroy him, for the temple of God is holy, and that is what you are. 1 Cor 6:19 Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and that you are not your own? |

149 | were infants baptized? | Acts 16:15 | Michael Draves | 148693 | ||
There are verses that say whole households were baptized but not who made them up: Acts 16:15 And when she and her household had been baptized, she urged us, saying, "If you have judged me to be faithful to the Lord, come into my house and stay." And she prevailed upon us. Acts 16:33 And he took them that very hour of the night and washed their wounds, and immediately he was baptized, he and all his household. 1 Cor 1:16 Now I did baptize also the household of Stephanas; beyond that, I do not know whether I baptized any other. I have heard of infant baptism being supported with this saying: Luke 18:16 But Jesus called for them, saying, "Permit the children to come to Me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these. |

150 | what time span did King David rule? | 2 Sam 1:1 | Michael Draves | 148678 | ||
The "Wall Chart of World History" lists Davids reign as from 1055 BC with the beginning of 2 Samuel, after the death of Saul, and ending in 1017 BC. He was anointed much earlier then his reign began. There was a time that Absalom had usurped the throne that the chart says was in 1023 BC. | ||||||
151 | Jesus birth to receiving the Holy Spirit | Mark 1:10 | Michael Draves | 148674 | ||
If you only had Mark you would have to conclude at his Baptism by John about 25 AD. If you had only Matthew or Luke you could say it was at his conception about 5 BC. If you only had John then you could say the Logos that became flesh was preexistant as part of the God Head to eternity past. | ||||||
152 | was luke a christian? | Philem 1:24 | Michael Draves | 148670 | ||
Yes. Luke and Acts may have been written by him as the defense of Paul in Rome. See Pauls opinion of Luke in Colosians 4:14, 2 Timothy 4:11 and Philemon 1:24. |
||||||
153 | If you are reviled IN the name of Christ | 1 Pet 4:14 | Michael Draves | 148667 | ||
Metzger's textual commentary indicates that it is possible the words were accidently omitted because of jumping from one -etai ending to another but the commitee thought it was more likely an addition refering to the spirit of glory. I think the verse sounds like a paraphrase of the last Beatitude in Matt 5:11 or Luke 6:22-23. I don't really think capitalization in Greek is that big of a deal. This could have been a note written in a margin that a scribe copied in with the main text. Metzger says in "Manuscripts of the Greek Bible" that capitals are used for inscriptions. That more curved uncials writing developed from capitals and then a form of cursive called miniscule developed. | ||||||
154 | should working wife have her own money? | Prov 31:31 | Michael Draves | 148119 | ||
Without studying Hebrew (or have some really good Bible software) you can not get the exact parsing to diagram and do an exegesis of the verse but you can do some word study on this verse itself on the internet. Proverbs 31:10 to 31:31 is an acrostic which means the poet made each verse start with each letter of the hebrew alphabet in alphabetical order. To the right of this web page (http://www.studybibleforum.com) put in the Book Chapter:verse search Prov 31:31 and click Go. If you see a green C then click it to see the verse in context. A green N indicates there were notes put it may just be your own unanswered question. Clicking a green I will show you the Strongs concordance numbers, a transliteration of the Hebrew and the possible ways it has been translated. Read 31:10 to 31:31 from the different translations at http://bible.crosswalk.com or http://www.biblegateway.com to hear 31:31 in context. Search the interlinear at http://www.studylight.org/isb/ for Prov 31:31 and click on the words you are interested in the possible meanings of.

157 | Fasting for the husband and wife | 1 Cor 7:5 | Michael Draves | 148106 | ||
I don't recall anything like this that Jesus said. There is a scribal addition about casting out a demon saying this kind only comes out with prayer and fasting. Mark 2:19 And Jesus said to them, "While the bridegroom is with them, the attendants of the bridegroom cannot fast, can they? So long as they have the bridegroom with them, they cannot fast. 1 Cor 7:5 Stop depriving one another, except by agreement for a time, so that you may devote yourselves to prayer, and come together again so that Satan will not tempt you because of your lack of self-control. 1 Sam 21:5 David answered the priest and said to him, "Surely women have been kept from us as previously when I set out and the vessels of the young men were holy, though it was an ordinary journey; how much more then today will their vessels be holy?" Read all of Isaiah 58. |

158 | Numbers in Hebrew letters/words? | Judg 12:14 | Michael Draves | 140446 | ||
Jewish mysticism called Kabbalah puts a lot of stock in the numeric values of Hebrew words. The practice of counting the values of letters in words is called Gematria. The only place I know of that suggests attempting gematria in the Bible is in Revelation regarding the number of the beast. Ray Summers in "Worthy is the Lamb" shows some theories theories on this name and number. You can search in side a version on Amazon pages 175-177: http://www.amazon.com/gp/reader/0805413146 The real value there would have been numerically with a text would be in being able to count the number of verses, numbers and letters in a book to know if it were copied correctly. Addison G. Wright, S.S. in "The Riddle of the Sphinx Revisted: Numerical Patterns in the Book of Qoheleth" (CBQ vol 42,1980) showed the value of the phrase in Ecclesiastes translated "Vanity of Vanities all is Vanity" as 216. This is number of verses in the book minus the epilogue. Neither of the two verses containing this phase is preserved in the Dead Sea Scroll fragments but you can see from the fragments available the primary difference in the Dead Sea scroll and the Masoretic text was of spelling. One of the most common differences was the holem vowel letter being present in the Dead Sea Scrolls as a "vav" that wasn't in the Masoretic text. The word for "all" is one of these words and the value of a "vav" is 6. If this letter was originally present then the value of the phrase is 222 which is the number of verses in Ecclesiastes. Without a text being transmitted perfectly down to the letter then the claims of Kabbalists and those doing "The Bible Code" are without merit. "The Bible Code" was already discredited by the failed prediction made for a Israel and Palestinian treaty. If you want a bibliography on numerical patterns in different books of the Bible see "Numerical Literary Techniques in John: The Fourth Evangelist's Use of Numbers of Words and Syllables" by M. J. J. Menken. You might look at the article on Gematria in the Jewish Encyclopedia. http://www.jewishencyclopedia.com Also you might do a google search fpr "On the Number of Verses, Words and Letters in the Bible" by Menachem Cohen of Bar-Ilan which is on the site http://cs.anu.edu.au . |

159 | never appear before god without offering | Ex 23:15 | Michael Draves | 134342 | ||
Ex 23:15 "You shall observe the Feast of Unleavened Bread; for seven days you are to eat unleavened bread, as I commanded you, at the appointed time in the month Abib, for in it you came out of Egypt. And none shall appear before Me empty-handed. Deut 16:16 "Three times in a year all your males shall appear before the LORD your God in the place which He chooses, at the Feast of Unleavened Bread and at the Feast of Weeks and at the Feast of Booths, and they shall not appear before the LORD empty-handed. |

160 | "son of God" vs. "son of Man" | Daniel | Michael Draves | 131685 | ||
In the old testament "Son of Man" is generally a title for a prophet who could be both a representative of mankind to God and God to mankind. Though I can't think of an example it literally could have been used for a son of Adam: Abel, Cain or Seth or any male child. In poetry it might just be a used as a parallel contrast; ex. "What is man that your are mindful of him and the son of man..." . The meaning gets elevated in Daniel which would seem to be the primary basis for its use in the Gospels. Son of God could refer to Adam as in Luke's Geaneology, it it used as a title for the king such as in Solomon's dream and possibly Psalm 2, Israel, angels, and maybe once early in Genesis as possibly any male descendent of Adam. The one who appears in the Lion's den of Daniel and Psalm 2 are important to the usage in the Gospels. Look at the context in which the titles occur especially if they are a quote or allusion to another passage. |
