202 | Where is "Lev. 32:2" in the Bible? | Bible general Archive 1 | meusing | 43489 | ||
I thought I apopgised for my mistake when I wrote ... Note: Please forgive me, that is chapter 23. Sometimes my dysexia gets away from me. But i think my question is valid, why would a people who do not keep the Hebrew calender, who live on the northwest coast of British Columbia on Haida-Guai (the Queen Charlot Islands) keep the Passover or the feast of Tabernacles? the winds and rain would blow over any booth of branches. You are right that a vister has to keep the laws of the country he is in. when My brother first went to Saudi Arabia to work for ARAMCO, he had long hair. The first time that he drove a car in Saudi, he was pulled over, because he was mistaken for a woman because of his hair, and it is ilegal in Saudi for a woman to drive a car. .................... You implied that Lev.23 applies to all people not just Israel; that all men everywhere are obliged to obey everything that is written in Lev. 23. That includes the Haida, the Cree, the Hurons, the Nishga ect. |

203 | our sacrifice and our faith | Rom 12:1 | meusing | 43468 | ||
As I was reading CHM's Notes of Gen. this passage caught my eye as it seems to relate here to Rom 12:1. please forgive any spelling mistakes. "The soul that has found ALL its springs in God, can, without any demur, retire from ALL creature streams. We dan give up the creature just in proportion as we have found out, or become experimentally acquainted with, the Creator. and no further. To attempt to give up the visible things in any other way save in the energy of that faith which lays hold of the invisible, is the most fruitless labor possible. It cannot be done. I will hold fast my Isaac until I have found my all in God. It is when we are enabled, by faith, to say, "God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble," that we can also add, "Therefoe we will not fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea" (Ps 46:1-2). ... there is ready obediance. Faith never stops to look at circumstances, or ponder results; it only 'looks at God; it expresses itself thus: "But when it pleased God, who separated me form my mother's womb, and called me by His grace, to reveal His Son in me, that I maight preach him among the gentiles, Immediatly I conferred not with flesh and blood" (Gal 1:15-16). The moment we confer with flesh and blood, our testimony and service are marred, for flesh and blood can never obey. We must rise early, and carry out, through grace, the divine command. Thus we are blessed, and God is glorified. Having God's own Word as the basis for our acting, will ever impart strength and stability to our acting. |

205 | LET'S LOVE ONE ANOTHER? | Rom 12:14 | meusing | 43439 | ||
Rom 12:14 Bless those who persecute you [who are cruel in their attitude toward you]; bless and do not curse them. Rom 12:15 Rejoice with those who rejoice [sharing others' joy], and weep with those who weep [sharing others' grief]. Rom 12:16 Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty (snobbish, high-minded, exclusive), but readily adjust yourself to [people, things] and give yourselves to humble tasks. Never overestimate yourself or be wise in your own conceits. [Prov. 3:7.] Rom 12:17 Repay no one evil for evil, but take thought for what is honest and proper and noble [aiming to be above reproach] in the sight of everyone. [Prov. 20:22.] Rom 12:18 If possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone. Rom 12:19 Beloved, never avenge yourselves, but leave the way open for [God's] wrath; for it is written, Vengeance is Mine, I will repay (requite), says the Lord. [Deut. 32:35.] Rom 12:20 But if your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him drink; for by so doing you will heap burning coals upon his head. [Prov. 25:21, 22.] Rom 12:21 Do not let yourself be overcome by evil, but overcome (master) evil with good. |

Some churches 'reformed' believe that infant baptism has replaced circumcision as a symbol of entering the Church of God. Others believe that baptism is a person's identifying himself with what has been done in the new birth as a symbol of new resurrected life. |

207 | A Study of John's Gospel. | John 1:1 | meusing | 43396 | ||
that is what I meant when I said read Romans 9-11. Rom 9:30 What shall we say then? That Gentiles who did not follow after righteousness [who did not seek salvation by right relationship to God] have attained it by faith [a righteousness imputed by God, based on and produced by faith], Rom 9:31 Whereas Israel, though ever in pursuit of a law [for the securing] of righteousness (right standing with God), actually did not succeed in fulfilling the Law. [Isa. 51:1.] Rom 10:19 Again I ask, Did Israel not understand? [Did the Jews have no warning that the Gospel was to go forth to the Gentiles, to all the earth?] First, there is Moses who says, I will make you jealous of those who are not a nation; with a foolish nation I will make you angry. [Deut. 32:21.] Rom 10:20 Then Isaiah is so bold as to say, I have been found by those who did not seek Me; I have shown (revealed) Myself to those who did not [consciously] ask for Me. [Isa. 65:1.] Rom 10:21 But of Israel he says, All day long I have stretched out My hands to a people unyielding and disobedient and self-willed [to a faultfinding, contrary, and contradicting people]. [Isa. 65:2.] Rom 11:2 No, God has not rejected and disowned His people [whose destiny] He had marked out and appointed and foreknown from the beginning. Do you not know what the Scripture says of Elijah, how he pleads with God against Israel? [Ps. 94:14; I Kings 19.] Rom 11:28 From the point of view of the Gospel (good news), they [the Jews, at present] are enemies [of God], which is for your advantage and benefit. But from the point of view of God's choice (of election, of divine selection), they are still the beloved (dear to Him) for the sake of their forefathers. Rom 11:31 So they also now are being disobedient [when you are receiving mercy], that they in turn may one day, through the mercy you are enjoying, also receive mercy [that they may share the mercy which has been shown to you--through you as messengers of the Gospel to them]. |

209 | on the earth | Gen 6:4 | meusing | 43388 | ||
John Gill wrote : Ver. 4. There were giants in the earth in those days,.... That is, in the days before the sons of God took the daughters of men for wives, in such a general manner as before declared, or before the declension and apostasy became so universal; even in the times of Jared, as the Arabic writers understand it, who say that these giants were begotten on the daughters of Cain by the children of Seth, who went down from the mountain to them in the days of Jared, see #Ge 5:20 the word "Nephilim" comes from a word which signifies to fall; and these might be so called, either because they made their fear to fall upon men, or men, through fear, to fall before them, because of their height and strength; or rather because they fell and rushed on men with great violence, and oppressed them in a cruel and tyrannical manner; or, as some think, because they fell off and were apostates from the true religion, which is much better than to understand them of apostate angels, whom the Targum of Jonathan mentions by name, and calls them Schanchazai and Uziel, who fell from heaven, and were in the earth in those days Adam Clarke also explains ... Verse 4. There were giants in the earth... µylpn nephilim, from lpn naphal, "he fell." Those who had apostatized or fallen from the true religion. The Septuagint translate the original word by gigantev, which literally signifies earth-born, and which we, following them, term giants, without having any reference to the meaning of the word, which we generally conceive to signify persons of enormous stature. But the word when properly understood makes a very just distinction between the sons of men and the sons of God; those were the nephilim, the fallen earth-born men, with the animal and devilish mind. These were the sons of God, who were born from above; children of the kingdom, because children of God. Hence we may suppose originated the different appellatives given to sinners and saints; the former were termed gigantev, earth-born, and the latter, agioi, i.e. saints, persons not of the earth, or separated from the earth. The same became mighty men-men of renown... myrbg gibborim, which we render mighty men, signifies properly conquerors, heroes, from rbg gabar, "he prevailed, was victorious." and µh yna anshey hashshem, "men of the name," anqrwpoi onomastpi, Septuagint; the same as we render men of renown, renominati, twice named, as the word implies, having one name which they derived from their fathers, and another which they acquired by their daring exploits and enterprises. It may be necessary to remark here that our translators have rendered seven different Hebrew words by the one term giants, viz., nephilim, gibborim, enachim, rephaim, emim, and zamzummim; by which appellatives are probably meant in general persons of great knowledge, piety, courage, wickedness, etc., and not men of enormous stature, as is generally conjectured. |

210 | salvation and born again. Same thing? | John 3:3 | meusing | 43383 | ||
We are saved by faith. being born again is the work of the Holy Spirit in our life. I like what John Gill wrote ... Nicodemus, according to the general sense of the nation, thought that when the Messiah came, and his kingdom was set up, they should all share in it, without any more ado; they being the descendants of Abraham, and having him for their father: but Christ assures him, that he must be "born again"; in distinction from, and opposition to his first birth by nature; in which he was vile, polluted, carnal, and corrupt, being conceived in sin, and shapen in iniquity, and was a transgressor from the womb, and by nature a child of wrath; and in opposition to, his descent from Abraham, or being born of him, and of his seed; for this would be of no avail to him in this case, nor give him any right to the privileges and ordinances of the kingdom of God, or the Gospel dispensation; see (Matthew 3:9) ; as also to birth by proselytism; for the Jews have a frequent saying F16, that ''one that is made a proselyte, (ymd dlwnv Nwjqk) , "is like a child new born".'' Which they understand, not in a spiritual, but in a civil sense; such being free from all natural and civil relations, and from all obligations to parents, masters F17… And by this phrase our Lord signifies, that no man, either as a man, or as a son of Abraham, or as a proselyte to the Jewish religion, can have any true knowledge of, or right unto, the enjoyment of the kingdom of God, unless he is born again; or regenerated, and quickened by the Spirit of God; renewed in the spirit of his mind; has Christ formed in his heart; becomes a partaker of the divine nature; and in all respects a new creature; and an other in heart, in principle, in practice, and conversation; or unless he be "born from above", as the word is rendered in (#John 3:31) ; that is, by a supernatural power, having the heavenly image stamped on him; and being called with an heavenly calling, even with the high calling of God in Christ Jesus: if this is not the case, a man can have no true knowledge of the kingdom of the Messiah, which is not a temporal and carnal one; it is not of this world, nor does it come with observation; nor can he have any right to the ordinances of it, which are of a spiritual nature; and much less can he be thought to have any true notions, or to be possessed of the kingdom of grace, which lies in righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost; or to have either a meetness for, or a right unto the kingdom of glory: though by the following words it seems, that the word is rightly rendered "again", or a second time, as it is by Nounus.

211 | A Study of John's Gospel. | John 1:1 | meusing | 43378 | ||
All the verses say are that 'His own' (the Jews) did not recieve Him. A. T. Robertson explained ... Unto his own (eiß ta idia). Neuter plural, "unto his own things," the very idiom used in #John 19:27 when the Beloved Disciple took the mother of Jesus "to his own home." The world was "the own home" of the Logos who had made it. See also #John 16:32 Acts 21:6. They that were his own (oi idioi). In the narrower sense, "his intimates," "his own family," "his own friends" as in #John 13:1. Jesus later said that a prophet is not without honour save in his own country (#Mark 6:4 John 4:44), and the town of Nazareth where he lived rejected him (#Luke 4:28 Matthew 13:58). Probably here oi idioi means the Jewish people, the chosen people to whom Christ was sent first (#Matthew 15:24), but in a wider sense the whole world is included in oi idioi. Conder's The Hebrew Tragedy emphasizes the pathos of the situation that the house of Israel refused to welcome the Messiah when he did come, like a larger and sadder Enoch Arden experience. Received him not (auton ou parelabon). Second aorist active indicative of paralambanw, old verb to take to one's side, common verb to welcome, the very verb used by Jesus in #John 14:3 of the welcome to his Father's house. Cf. katelaben in verse 5. Israel slew the Heir (#Hebrews 1:2) when he came, like the wicked husbandmen (#Luke 20:14). They continue to be the apple of His eye, but they rejected their Messiah. read Romans 9-11. |

Yes, our faith is in God who Keeps His promises. as the hymn writer said ... From whence this fear and unbelief, If God, my Father, put to grief His spotless Son for me? Can He, the righteous Judge of men, Comdemn me for that debt of sin Which, Lord, was charged to Thee? Complete atonementThou hast made, And to the utmost farthing paid Whate'er Thy people owed ; How, then can wrath on me take place, If sheltered in God's righteousness And sprinkled by Thy blood ? If Thou hast my discharge procured, And freely in my place endured The whole of wrath divine ; Payment God will not twice demand, First at my bleeding Surety's hand, And then again at mine. Turn, then, my soul, unto thy rest; The merits of thy great High Priest Speak peace and libery ; Trust in His efficacious blood, Nor fear thy banishment from God, Since Jesus died for thee. ------------------- Faith fastens of Facts and feelings are forced to follow (L. E. Maxwell) and the facts faith focuses are the promises of God. |

Please forgive me, that is chapter 23. Sometimes my dysexia gets away from me. But i think my question is valid, why would a people who do not keep the Hebrew calender, who live on the northwest coast of British Columbia on Haida-Guai (the Queen Charlot Islands) keep the Passover or the feast of Tabernacles? the winds and rain would blow over any booth of branches. You are right that a vister has to keep the laws of the country he is in. when My brother first went to Saudi Arabia to work for ARAMCO, he had long hair.
