Shalom Jessi, The Bible does not tell us what the condition was as that was not the focus of the lesson, and we are not medics with that kind of knowledge here on Bible Study Forum. You might do a google search and find some possibilities. :o) Cheri |

22 | Was Abraham a Jew | Genesis | skccab | 212862 | ||
Shalom Joshua, No, Abraham was not a Jew. He was to be the father of the Jews and of many other nations. Nor was Isaac a Jew. He was the beginning of the line that would become Israel and also many other nations. Jacob was the actual, literal father of the line that would become known as Jews (Judah) and also of other nations, but he, himself, was not a Jew. His 12 sons were the ones that began to be known as Hebrews. Judah's people began being known as Jews sometime after the single kingdom of Israel split into the two houses known as Judah (Southern Kingdom) and Israel/Ephraim (Northern Kingdom) which took place during or just after Solomon's reign. Ezekiel 37 tells us that these two kingdoms will once again, in the latter days, be brought back together in their own land, as one people, under one King!! Please forgive me for the lack of scripture reference, I just woke up and my eyes just won't focus yet to look up the references (that won't happen for another 1-2 hours) :o) Cheri |

23 | Who is the generation? | Bible general Archive 4 | skccab | 212796 | ||
Shalom Kcabm, Some theologies say He was talking about the generation to whom He was speaking, therefore, they believe that the 70AD events were the fulfillment. The majority (myself included) believe what was meant is that the generation in which "these things" beigns will not pass away before all the things have happened. (After all, it is generally agreed upon that the period of time is only about 7 years, with perhaps a 5-10 yr. period leading up to the 7-yr Tribulation.) Some believe that those saved won't see any part of the 7-yr period (pre-trib), some believe that the saved living at that time will see some of the Tribulation (pre-wrath), some believe that the born-again will see all of it (post trib), and some believe that He returned in 70AD and we are now in the 1000 year millenium (preterist). Just my 2cents... Cheri |

24 | Assuming this covenant was renewal of th | Bible general Archive 4 | skccab | 212560 | ||
Shalom Senicienta, The very first covenant to Abram can be found in Gen. 12:1-3, the promise of the land was confirmed in verse 7. In Gen. chapter 15 the promise of Isaac is given along with the promise of the land reiterated. Again in Gen. chapter 17. (These are not the only places in the Bible that you can read about the Abrahamic covenant, but they will get you started - you can follow your Bible's references for the others.) The covenant that the Israelites broke was the Mosaic covenant where they promised to follow and obey the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob only. Where the Hebrews broke their part of the covenant happened throughout their history (right up to this day) when they would go after other gods of the nations around them. Hope this helps somewhat :o) Cheri |

26 | zechariah 12:10 he will come as king and | Zechariah | skccab | 212398 | ||
Shalom again ssmiller, The book of Zachariah is rich, I love it. 6:12-13 speaks of the King; 8:20-23 speaks of the latter days; 9:9 describes the day Yeshua/Jesus entered Jerusalem just before Passover; 11:12-13 tells of His price; 12:10 tells of His people recognizing Him in the latter days; 13:7 about what happened to His followers at His arrest and crucifixion. Chapter 14 speaks of the 2nd Advent of our Messiah. This is just a sampling of Jesus' 1st and 2nd Advents in this book!! Have fun reading it! Cheri |

27 | comimg of jesus in what book inthe bible | Bible general Archive 4 | skccab | 212396 | ||
Merry Christmas and Shalom ssmiller, I'm imagining you are wanting to know about the Birth? That would be 1st chapter of Matthew, first 2 chapters of Luke, Isaiah 53 is a good one about what Messiah would be like and do. Also, Isaiah 7:14; 8:14; 9:1-2 and 9:6-7; 11:1-2 and 10 - just to get you started. :o) Cheri |

28 | Sell what you have-give alms | Bible general Archive 4 | skccab | 212270 | ||
Flyman, I don't know if anyone else has declared this or not (I haven't read ALL of the responses, so if someone has said this, please forgive me for repeating you) but to put what I've read so far in the venacular - you can be dirt poor without a penny to your name and still have money be your god and sustainer. You don't have to be rich or even comfortable to worship money and possessions. Shalom Cheri |

29 | OT/NT | OT general | skccab | 212217 | ||
Greetings Clayton, The person here on SBF that I mentioned is a Christian of Christians, just born Jewish!! The man is extremely knowledgeable of the NT (as well as the OT) and Jesus and Church history, and everything Christian. I think he teaches Biblical Doctrine (if he doesn't, he should!!) To answer your question on Dt. 6:4, I think the answer is Yes. As far as I know EVERYONE on this Forum is Christian. Cheri P.S. you can email me if you wish to talk further about Messianic Judiasm, as this is a Christian Forum. OK? |

30 | OT/NT | OT general | skccab | 212206 | ||
Hiya Fcs, I did neglect to answer that part didn't I? I'm sorry. Yes, they are still waiting for Messiah. There have been men over the centuries, even before Jesus, that they thought might be the Messiah but it turned out they were not. (The Jews have a list of sorts of what the Messiah will be like and what he will do.) We have a Jewish believer here at SBF and he can probably answer more fully, maybe even more correctly. But for now, my understanding is that the Jews rejected Jesus around the time He began equating Himself with God. The Jews do not believe that Messiah is God or that he will be God. Their whole belief system is based on the Sh'ma, "Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is one God!" Deut. 6:4 As you read the gospels you will see that He has many Jewish followers that walk away when He begins saying things like "...If ye had known me, ye would have known my Father also: from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him." (Jn. 14:7) and "...I and the Father are one..." (Jn. 10:30)and "...before Abraham was, I Am..." (Jn. 8:58) The Jews just could/can not accept that Jesus was/is God. Hope this helps till you can get a more complete answer :o) Cheri |

31 | ?? | OT general | skccab | 212204 | ||
Shalom Fcs, The Torah (or the Law) is actually the first 5 books of Moses, but many Jews will use the term Torah to include the entire OT. (They do not call it the OT, they often speak of the entire Scriptures as the TaNaKH) It contains the same books as the Christian Bibles except the order and designation of the books are a bit different. The Torah or the Law: Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, Deuteronomy. The Prophets come after Deuteronomy and include Joshua, Judges, 1 Samuel thru 2 Kings and are called Early Prophets Then you have Isaiah thru Malachi called the Latter Prophets. Then you have what's called the Writings (that you read of Jesus speaking about): Psalms, Proverbs, Job, Song of Solomon, Ruth, Lamentations, Ecclesiastes, Esther, Daniel, and the Jewish Bible ends with 1 and 2 Chronicles. Once again, other than the order and the designation (like Daniel not being considered a prophet) the Jewish Holy Scriptures are the same as what we use. The wording would be very much like our Bibles, they too have more than one English "translation" but like our different translations it all boils down to the same word of God. Hope this helps Cheri |

32 | Jesus Died for all, why speak in parable | John 17:9 | skccab | 212202 | ||
Shalom Flyman, Why don't you tell us a little something about yourself in your user profile. It is only optional but most of us have filled ours in - it's nice to know about our brothers and sisters in God's family. Just tell what you are comfortable revealing for now and you can always edit it later with more info. Thank you. Cheri |

35 | who was exodus written to? | OT general | skccab | 212086 | ||
Shalom Hannah, I think most people would think it was written to the people who actually made the exodus from Egypt (but they were not allowed into the promised land due to disobedience) so - Deut. 9:6 says, "And these words, which I command you today shall be in your heart. 7 - "You shall teach them to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, when you walk by the way, when you lie down, and when you rise up." and Deut. 9:10 says "So it shall be, when the Lord your God brings you into the land of which He swore to your fathers, to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, to give you large and beautiful cities which you did not build..." There's more to that passage, but the gist is, it was written to the children of the people of the exodus so they could teach their children and those children would teach their children, etc., etc. (Deut. took place just on the other side of the Jordan and the people were getting ready to cross over into the promised land of Canaan.) Hope this helps Cheri |

36 | what scriptures discribes a great Dad ? | Bible general Archive 4 | skccab | 212021 | ||
Shalom mws777 "Happy is the man who fears the Lord, who delights greatly in His commandments. His seed shall be mighty upon the earth, the generation of the upright shall be blessed . Wealth and riches shall be in his house, and his righteousness shall endure forever. Unto the upright there arises light in the darkness; he is gracious, and full of compassion, and just. A man is good who lends with grace, he conducts his affairs justly. Surely he shall never be moved; the righteous will be eternally remembered. He shall not be afraid of evil tidings; his heart is fixed, trusting in the Lord. His heart is established, he shall not be afraid when he gazes upon his enemies. He has distributed freely, he has given to the poor; his righteousness endures for ever, his horn shall be exalted with honor. Psa. 112:1-9 This is a good one :o) Cheri |

38 | What was Saul’s greatest contribution? | Bible general Archive 4 | skccab | 211814 | ||
Shalom Malisa, Are you asking about King Saul or Saul/Paul of Tarsus in the New Testament? If Saul of the New Testament, then his contribution is about 1/3 of the NT which was written by him, and the majority of the early churches were started and or put on the right track by him. If you're asking about King Saul, sorry, my mind has gone blank :o) Maybe someone else can help or I'll get back to you on that. Cheri |

39 | Proverbs 3:3 | Proverbs | skccab | 211737 | ||
Sirhighsmith, It seems to be quite simple: Let mercy and truth be with you always in everything you do. If you are forever seeking mercy and truth, then those attributes will always come from you. A person seeking after mercy and truth will not be harsh and full of lies. Connect Prov. 3:3 to Phil 4:8 and see if that helps you understand. :o) Cheri |

40 | I'm Confused! | 1 John 1:9 | skccab | 211720 | ||
Shalom Reedera, Maybe I can help clear this up for you? When you first come to your Lord, you come as a sinner, with no hope, no home, no heritage. You were born in sin, lived in sin. He takes you and does more than just clean you up, He makes you completely new, totally whole, the way Adam was before he fell from grace. That is the only time you will come before the Throne of God as a sinner. You were forgiven for being a sinner, not for individual sins (wrongs) committed (though that is included). Now, as a child of God, fully capable of walking in the Spirit but also quite human, you make mistakes, do things you know you shouldn't. These are sins that need to be taken care of by admitting them and by asking and receiving forgiveness for them. If you don't? You won't go to hell, God won't turn His back on you, but you yourself will begin to dwell on your shortcomings and that will eventually affect your fellowship with the Father and with your fellow believers. I hope this helped a little bit :o) Cheri |
