CCBJ, thank you. Reading from the NIV and reading what Taleb quoted from made me wonder if he meant to use another translation for an example or what. It as so close, yet different. TommyS |

Taleb, that quote you gave in this post WASN'T NIV, although it was similiar. What was it, please? TommyS |

26 | Which Hosea 11:12 is correct? | Hos 11:12 | TommyS | 110392 | ||
Kalos, thank you for your response. A preacher read that verse in his sermon and he used a different translation than I was using. I went home and checked it out with other translations and they all matched what mine said, not what he had stated. The problem is, it threw me such a "curve ball" that I failed to catch his point.

27 | Which Hosea 11:12 is correct? | Not Specified | TommyS | 110380 | ||
Can anyone help me understand WHICH is correct? I understand about the NIV generally being more accurate than the KJV. NIV is also easier to understand because they translate “he” into Jesus or God much more often than KJV does. Yet this one verse is so VERY different between the two translations. Hosea 11:12 KJV reads: “Ephraim compasseth me about with lies, and the house of Israel with deceit: BUTJudah yet RULETH WITH God, and is faithful WITH the saints.” And the NIV reads: “Ephraim has surrounded me with lies; the house of Israel with deceit, AND Judah IS UNRULY AGAINST God, even AGAINST the faithful Holy One.” I’ve checked numerous other translations and they agree with NIV, but I still don’t understand “WHY” the difference. |

Emmaus, I filled out a profile. TommyS |

Emmaus, I'm not sure WHICH email address is yours. Could you please advise this computer illiterate. :) And, please be patient with my response, because as the week-end quickly approaches, I start "running here and yon". TommyS |

31 | What about the woman at the well in Jn 4 | John 4:18 | TommyS | 110094 | ||
Ray, your interesting and inspiring imput into the subject tied in nicely with Emmaus'. It provides much great insight. I appreciate your sharing those interesting details. Thank you. Who would have thought that a simple question could have so much insight into the heart and nature of our Lord? Like I asked Emmaus, WHY aren't more preachers sharing this exceptional teaching material with their congregations? Why do so many only teach from that shallow concept of the immoral woman's "trying to change the subject". Although, it has been a few years since I heard it, because we changed churchs. On a side note, after checking my e-mail and seeing nothing new, I opened studybible and there was your posting. Strange - I wonder why yours never "showed" on my e-mail? For that matter, Emmaus' two from last night never did either. TommyS |

32 | What about the woman at the well in Jn 4 | John 4:18 | TommyS | 110038 | ||
Emmaus, pray tell, with all the times I have heard a sermon concerning the "woman at the well", HOW come I have never heard a message such as you just presented to the world? Thank you, Emmaus, for ONCE again going above and beyond the extra mile. I am truly grateful for the additional imput. IF I were a pastor, I know what the next six of so sermons would cover. :) That is a lot of meat. I am going to print that out and stick it in my Bible to munch on for awhile. Thanks for the "delicious" spiritual feast. TommyS |

Thank you Emmaus. You were correct - I DID find it interesting. Thank you for giving US ALL an opportunity for a better understanding of HIS mercy and grace and love. One thing that really stuck out to me in John 4 was how quickly so many from her village accepted our Lord as theirs. I appreciate your imput on SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO many topics, whether mine or someone elses. Thanks "for returning yourself" to us. :) TommyS |

34 | What about the woman at the well in Jn 4 | John 4:18 | TommyS | 110030 | ||
Thank you, KCPRAYS, for attempting to answer my question. You added, "Further, it was considered improper by the Jews for a rabbi to speak to a woman in public, whether she was immoral or not", YET it was Jesus who first spoke to her in asking her for a drink. The reason I asked this is because I noted that as soon as she returned to town to get others to come see if the messiah was at the well, and how quickly they believed her, led me to believe the town folk MUST have "trusted" her to be a "truthful" woman. I never heard of a "truthful" immoral person. I was only wondering if anyone else "felt" the same way. TommyS |

What makes people say that the woman at the well in John 4 was "immoral?" I've heard the argument that because she went to the well alone means people wouldn't associate with her which means she was immoral. In any country I've been in where the woman have to go to the public water supply, they go all hours of the day - alone, together, young or old, they went WHEN they needed water. Rebecca went alone to the well in Gen 24, and she wasn't immoral. And, I've heard preachers claim that the woman kept trying to change the subject yet reading that section - she is the one which brought up "prophet" "worship" "the messiah". Am I missing something that should be obvious? |

38 | Is Jesus "least" in kingdom of heaven? | Matt 11:11 | TommyS | 109801 | ||
Makarios, you are confirming our brother in Christ, Emmaus. When I read that verse it was like - hey, wait a minute. I appreciate your going the extra mile with your second response. Thank you. TommyS |

Emmaus, WOW. I think I understand what you mean. What you shared really makes sense to me. I'll dig into those two verses you shared. Thank you, sir! TommyS |

Makarios, thank you responding so quickly. I'm sorry, if I seem dense - but You stated that you believe "that we can plainly see that John the Baptist is who Jesus is speaking of when He says, "Truly, I say to you, among those born of women there has arisen no one greater than John the Baptist. Yet the one who is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he." [ESV] My question took that verse into complete consideration. Jesus IS speaking of John when He stated "there has arisen no one greater than John the Baptist". I agree. BUT, how could Jesus also mean John who is the LEAST in the kingdom - IF, among those born of women there has arisn NO ONE GREATER than John the Baptist? I recongize that there is NO other name under heaven whereby we must saved. And Jesus' name is abouve all other names. And His shed blood, death and resurrection is vital for our salvation. Do you understand what I am trying to ask? Is John the Baptist BOTH the greatest born of women, AND the least in the kingdom of heaven? TommyS |
