21 | Is it wrong if it comes amidst? | Matt 6:7 | Michael Draves | 226404 | ||
It is not wrong. If you are in a church that only says 'Amen' at the end of a prayer you might confuse people who take the 'Amen' as a cue that the prayer is done. | ||||||
22 | When do we say Amen in prayer? | Matt 6:7 | Michael Draves | 226386 | ||
Matt 6:7 "And when you are praying, do not use meaningless repetition as the Gentiles do, for they suppose that they will be heard for their many words. Amen is more common at the end of a prayer. Does the word 'Amen' really mean something to you or do you use it because that's what you have always heard? In the Lord's sample prayer, Matt 6:13, the end phrase with 'Amen' is likely an addition. Amen is to be repeated after each curse in Deut 27 to accept it. |

23 | Did Elijah come back prior to the Messia | Matt 17:11 | Michael Draves | 226366 | ||
Mat 17:10-13 And His disciples asked Him, "Why then do the scribes say that Elijah must come first?" And He answered and said, "Elijah is coming and will restore all things; but I say to you that Elijah already came, and they did not recognize him, but did to him whatever they wished. So also the Son of Man is going to suffer at their hands." Then the disciples understood that He had spoken to them about John the Baptist. Can a prophesy be fulfilled more than once? Does the original context matter? Does it matter if the writer only understood it one way? |

24 | where does any book say that | Hebrews | Michael Draves | 226164 | ||
A Christian point of view is probably going to point to Romans 11. You might ask someone Jewish and they might tell you that signs of the Messianic age have not happened. They might also tell you they are more troubled by the claims of divinity rather than Messiahship. Romans 11:25 For I do not want you, brethren, to be uninformed of this mystery--so that you will not be wise in your own estimation--that a partial hardening has happened to Israel until the fullness of the Gentiles has come in; Isaiah 11:6 And the wolf will dwell with the lamb, And the leopard will lie down with the young goat, And the calf and the young lion and the fatling together; And a little boy will lead them. |

26 | chapter Ezekial God speaking flying up | Ezek 37:11 | Michael Draves | 226032 | ||
Are you saying the dry bones are resurrected but not raptured? The dry bones are how the people in Exile feel. Ezek 37:11 Then He said to me, "Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel; behold, they say, 'Our bones are dried up and our hope has perished. We are completely cut off.' |

27 | where does jesus die and go visit hell? | Luke 23:43 | Michael Draves | 225990 | ||
Could be from an interpretation of Ephesians 4:8-10. Therefore it says, "WHEN HE ASCENDED ON HIGH, HE LED CAPTIVE A HOST OF CAPTIVES, AND HE GAVE GIFTS TO (Now this expression, "He ascended," what does it mean except that He also had descended into the lower parts of the earth? He who descended is Himself also He who ascended far above all the heavens, so that He might fill all things.) |

31 | 2Kings 3:16 version discrepancy, ESV/NAS | 2 Kin 3:16 | Michael Draves | 204062 | ||
There are no variants listed in BHS for 2 King 3:16. The word that contains the idea of "to make" is an Infinitive Absolute. Pratico and Van Pelts basic grammar says an Infinitive Absolute has no real English counter part and that it may be used to emphasize another verb, to give an imperative command, to express simultaneous action or to express action that complements the main verb. An infinitive absolute has no person, number nor gender. The same word occurs in 1 Sam 26:25, Jer 44:17,25, Ezek 23:30 and Prov 23:5. | ||||||

1 Tim 5:8 But if anyone does not provide for his own, and especially for those of his household, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever. Is 58:6 "Is this not the fast which I choose, To loosen the bonds of wickedness, To undo the bands of the yoke, And to let the oppressed go free And break every yoke? Is 58:7 "Is it not to divide your bread with the hungry And bring the homeless poor into the house; When you see the naked, to cover him; And not to hide yourself from your own flesh? Mark 7:9 He was also saying to them, "You are experts at setting aside the commandment of God in order to keep your tradition. Mark 7:10 "For Moses said, 'HONOR YOUR FATHER AND YOUR MOTHER'; and, 'HE WHO SPEAKS EVIL OF FATHER OR MOTHER, IS TO BE PUT TO DEATH'; Mark 7:11 but you say, 'If a man says to his father or his mother, whatever I have that would help you is Corban (that is to say, given to God),' Mark 7:12 you no longer permit him to do anything for his father or his mother; Mark 7:13 thus invalidating the word of God by your tradition which you have handed down; and you do many things such as that." Prov 6:1 My son, if you have become surety for your neighbor, Have given a pledge for a stranger, Prov 6:2 If you have been snared with the words of your mouth, Have been caught with the words of your mouth, Prov 6:3 Do this then, my son, and deliver yourself; Since you have come into the hand of your neighbor, Go, humble yourself, and importune your neighbor. Prov 6:4 Give no sleep to your eyes, Nor slumber to your eyelids; Prov 6:5 Deliver yourself like a gazelle from the hunter's hand And like a bird from the hand of the fowler. Prov 19:19 A man of great anger will bear the penalty, For if you rescue him, you will only have to do it again. Prov 30:15a The leech has two daughters, "Give," "Give." Mal 4:5 "Behold, I am going to send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and terrible day of the LORD. Mal 4:6 "He will restore the hearts of the fathers to their children and the hearts of the children to their fathers, so that I will not come and smite the land with a curse." |

37 | is "earth " symbol for Israel ? | Rev 13:11 | Michael Draves | 200092 | ||
eratz can be translated "earth" or "land". Based on context you have to decide if it is a reference to the "promised land". Exodus 32:13 KJV Remember Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, thy servants, to whom thou swarest by thine own self, and saidst unto them, I will multiply your seed as the stars of heaven, and all this land that I have spoken of will I give unto your seed, and they shall inherit it for ever. Joshua 7:9 NASB "For the Canaanites and all the inhabitants of the land will hear of it, and they will surround us and cut off our name from the earth. And what will You do for Your great name?" Isaiah 49:8 KJV Thus saith the LORD, In an acceptable time have I heard thee, and in a day of salvation have I helped thee: and I will preserve thee, and give thee for a covenant of the people, to establish the earth, to cause to inherit the desolate heritages; Isaiah 49:8 NASB Thus says the LORD, "In a favorable time I have answered You, And in a day of salvation I have helped You; And I will keep You and give You for a covenant of the people, To restore the land, to make them inherit the desolate heritages; Jer 22:29 KJV O earth, earth, earth, hear the word of the LORD.

Ezekiel 9:9 KJV Then said he unto me, The iniquity of the house of Israel and Judah is exceeding great, and the land is full of blood, and the city full of perverseness: for they say, The LORD hath forsaken the earth, and the LORD seeth not. |

The Stone Edition Tanach note on Judges 1:6 Nowhere else do we find Jews mutilating their opponents, as they do to Adoni-bezek. God prompted them to do this in order to frighten the remaining Canaanite rulers and to punish Adoni-bezek measure for measure for the atrocities he had inflicted on his victims (Ralbag). Search books.google.com and amazon.com for "cut off thumbs jewish" Encyclopedia of Jewish Medical Ethics P. 54 under Amputee: Legend relates that the Jews exiled to Babylon after the destruction of the first Temple cut off there thumbs so that the would not have to sing songs of Zion and play musical instruments before Nebuchadnezzar. Judas Maccabaeus: The Jewish Struggle Against the Seleucids p 369 regarding the treatment of Nicanor: The Babylonian Talmud version is further removed: 'They cut off the thumbs of his hand and feet and hung them at the gates of Jerusalem and said, A mouth that used to speak arrogantly and hands that used to be brandished at Jerusalem...'
