21 | Philistines still survive today | Jer 47:4 | Michael Draves | 199009 | ||
How did you come to the conclusion that the Palestinians are descendents of the Philistines? I haven't digested the evidence. Some claim pottery of Philistine "sea people" is similar to Mycenean. DNA reports may show similarity between Jews and Palestinians. http://bioanthropology.huji.ac.il/pdf/Nebel2000.pdf High-resolution Y chromosome haplotypes of Israeli and Palestinian Arabs reveal geographic substructure and substantial overlap with haplotypes of Jews http://www.liebertonline.com/doi/abs/10.1089/109065703321560976 Y-Chromosom DNA Haplotypes in Jews: Comparisons with Lebanese and Palestinians search in http://www.bethel.edu for PhilistinesPOTW.pdf PHILISTINES by David M.Howard, Jr. http://books.google.com/books search for "Biblical Peoples" http://www.jogg.info/11/coffman.pdf A MOSAIC OF PEOPLE: THE JEWISH STORY AND A REASSESSMENT OF THE DNA EVIDENCE |

22 | three wedding ceremonies | OT general | Michael Draves | 198838 | ||
Commitment seems to be what you mean by "skirting" and is represented by covering with the corner or "wing" of a garment and can be a metaphor for God's love. (see Ezekiel 16:8, Psalm 17:8, 36:7, 61:4, 63:7, 91:4) As for defilement search for "uncover" and also search for "lay" in the scripture search on the right of the screen. Consumation is usually described as "going into". (see Genesis 16:4, 19:31, 29:30, 38:8) There can be some overlap in the words used in both Hebrew and English. Try to interpret Psalm 68:12b-13 and Hosea 4:19a. | ||||||

KJV: I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these things.

26 | difference between the soul and spirit? | Bible general Archive 4 | Michael Draves | 196994 | ||
'Ruach' in Hebrew which is sometimes translated 'spirit' can also be translated as 'breath' or 'wind'. 'Ruach' is used in Eccl 3:18-21 to refer to animals as well as people. 18 I said to myself concerning the sons of men, "God has surely tested them in order for them to see that they are but beasts." 19 For the fate of the sons of men and the fate of beasts is the same. As one dies so dies the other; indeed, they all have the same breath and there is no advantage for man over beast, for all is vanity. 20 All go to the same place. All came from the dust and all return to the dust. 21 Who knows that the breath of man ascends upward and the breath of the beast descends downward to the earth? 22 I have seen that nothing is better than that man should be happy in his activities, for that is his lot For who will bring him to see what will occur after him? |

27 | where do animals go when they expire? | Rev 22:15 | Michael Draves | 191544 | ||
Rom 8:19-23 For the anxious longing of the creation waits eagerly for the revealing of the sons of God. or the creation was subjected to futility, not willingly, but because of Him who subjected it, in hope that the creation itself also will be set free from its slavery to corruption into the freedom of the glory of the children of God. For we know that the whole creation groans and suffers the pains of childbirth together until now. And not only this, but also we ourselves, having the first fruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting eagerly for our adoption as sons, the redemption of our body. |

28 | Only God can make a promise? | Deut 23:22 | Michael Draves | 191450 | ||
James 4:13 - 4:16 Come now, you who say, "Today or tomorrow we will go to such and such a city, and spend a year there and engage in business and make a profit." Yet you do not know what your life will be like tomorrow. You are just a vapor that appears for a little while and then vanishes away. Instead, you ought to say, "If the Lord wills, we will live and also do this or that." But as it is, you boast in your arrogance; all such boasting is evil. |

Saul may not have sinned when he put the people "under oath" not to eat till evening but he at least acted foolishly. His son, unaware of the oath, broke it. The people being weary finally did sin by eating meat with blood (Gen 9:4). Saul stops the sinning by having a stone set up for proper slaughtering of the animals. This might be taken as the same as building the altar but this slaughtering at most could only be considered a peace offering (Lev 3,7) since it could be eaten by the people. Since there is no concern about eating the fat these are probably not Peace Offerings. There is at least one priest mentioned in this chapter and there may be more who are the ones Saul sent out amoung the people to get the people to bring the animals to the stone to be slaughtered. Since God does not answer a prayer it is found out by lot that Jonathan had violated the oath. There must have been separate sacrifices for the sin of the people who ate the animals with their blood for them not to consider this as the reason for God not answering the prayer. | ||||||
31 | Sabbath or Sunday | Col 2:16 | Michael Draves | 164937 | ||
What is the Sabbath rest that Hebrews 4 says we are to enter? Heb 4:1 Therefore, let us fear if, while a promise remains of entering His rest, any one of you may seem to have come short of it. Heb 4:2 For indeed we have had good news preached to us, just as they also; but the word they heard did not profit them, because it was not united by faith in those who heard. Heb 4:3 For we who have believed enter that rest, just as He has said, "AS I SWORE IN MY WRATH, THEY SHALL NOT ENTER MY REST," although His works were finished from the foundation of the world. Heb 4:4 For He has said somewhere concerning the seventh day: "AND GOD RESTED ON THE SEVENTH DAY FROM ALL HIS WORKS"; Heb 4:5 and again in this passage, "THEY SHALL NOT ENTER MY REST." Heb 4:6 Therefore, since it remains for some to enter it, and those who formerly had good news preached to them failed to enter because of disobedience, Heb 4:7 He again fixes a certain day, "Today," saying through David after so long a time just as has been said before, "TODAY IF YOU HEAR HIS VOICE, DO NOT HARDEN YOUR HEARTS." Heb 4:8 For if Joshua had given them rest, He would not have spoken of another day after that. Heb 4:9 So there remains a Sabbath rest for the people of God. Heb 4:10 For the one who has entered His rest has himself also rested from his works, as God did from His. Heb 4:11 Therefore let us be diligent to enter that rest, so that no one will fall, through following the same example of disobedience. |

32 | Who could the Israelites marry? | Ruth 1:4 | Michael Draves | 160135 | ||
Did the exclusion from the assembly of the Lord for ten generations start with Balaam or did it start whenever an intermarriage occured? Nehemiah 13 recounts an interpretation that takes the exclusion to last forever. David and Solomon shouldn't have been allowed in the assembly if it still applied in their time. Was the only problem with foreign wives their foreign gods which Ruth either never followed or she abandoned? |

34 | List Nasb departures from Hebrew text? | Bible general Archive 3 | Michael Draves | 157977 | ||
An example of a departure from the Hebrew text is in Ecclesiastes 2:25. The text says "without me" which doesn't make sense in context. Eccl 2:25 For who can eat and who can have enjoyment without Him? |

35 | Did King David know about Absalom? | 2 Sam 18:14 | Michael Draves | 157897 | ||
Hi Makarios If David knew about Absalom being killed by Joab I would have expected David to mention it as a reason for Solomon to deal with Joab unless David knew Solomon would have wanted Absalom as a rival to die anyway so mentioning it might not help David motivate Solomon to do what he wanted. Have you come up with a better reason than an argument from silence? Michael |

Vatican manuscript 1209 appears to be Codex Vaticanus from the 4th century. On page 74 of "Manuscripts of the Greek Bible: An Introduction to Palaeography" Metzger says "Unfortunately the beauty of the original has been spoiled by a later scribe who found the ink faded and traced over every letter afresh, omitting only those letters and words that he believed to be incorrect. ... Accent and breathing marks, as well as punctuation, have been added by a later hand." | ||||||

Acts 17:10 The brethren immediately sent Paul and Silas away by night to Berea, and when they arrived, they went into the synagogue of the Jews.
