221 | What proof do you find in Genesis 22:10- | Gen 22:11 | prayon | 167115 | ||
Greetings Hana, I believe you are talking about verse 11 not 10. Angel of the Lord literally means 'messenger of Yahweh'. If you look at Ex 3:2 it says that the Angel of the Lord appeared to him in the burning bush. In verse 6 it says that the voice said "I am the God of your Father - the God of Abraham..." therefore if it says the Angel was God here it must mean the same thing in every other instance.

Greetings Denise and welcome to the forum, According to John Gill's Exposition of the Bible "but Rebekah loved Jacob; more than Esau, being more at home with her, and of a milder disposition; and more especially being a good man, a partaker of the grace of God, and to whom she knew by the oracle the blessing and promise belonged" prayon |

225 | Jacob wrestles with a man | Gen 32:1 | prayon | 72065 | ||
Greetings Fins2drght and welcome to the forum. The answer given by David is mostly correct but I wanted to add that it was not Jesus Himself that Jacob wrestled with but the Angel of the Lord, who is also identified as the pre-incarnate appearance of the Lord Jesus Christ. prayon |

226 | How could Esau forgive Jacob? | Gen 33:4 | prayon | 144858 | ||
Greetings and welcome to the forum! The bible does not say specifically but it does tell us that when Jacob looked into Esau's face he said " I've seen your face as if I were seeing the face of God, and yet you welcomed me so warmly. That indeed shows us that Esau forgave Jacob. There could of been a couple reasons. It could of been because of Jacob's prayers or it could of been because of God changing the hearts of the brothers. prayon | ||||||
227 | Please explain Genesis 37:23-36 | Gen 37:26 | prayon | 51050 | ||
Greetings, Again I am not sure exactly what you are seeking to find out. Basically, Joseph's brothers hated him so much because he was his father's favorite and his father left to him the double portion that the eldest should of received. At first they were going to kill him but leaving him to die in the pit, however Judah came to his rescue and he was sold to the Ishmaelites. They then went home and told their father that he died by a wild animal. prayon | ||||||
228 | who/what are the twelve tribes? | Gen 49:28 | prayon | 92095 | ||
Greetings Teemac and welcoe to the forum, The 12 tribes of Israel originated with the 10 of the 11 sons of Jacob. Joseph, his 11th son was given a double portion. Because of this the last 2 members of the tribes were his two sons Ephraim and Manassas. Each son was given a different prophetic message from Jacob (see Gen 49). Each person became the head of a tribe that was given a different allotment of land when they reached the promised land except for Levi who became head of the priests and were not given any land. prayon |

230 | Moses prepared for his family how? | Exodus | prayon | 18656 | ||
Greetings ronscarpet! I am guessing where you got these questions and if I am correct the forum would be considered a "commentary" which are not supposed to be used until after the lecture. The bible says seek and you will find. The idea behind BSF is to teach us to seek for ourselves and to really study the word of God. I do know just how great the temptation to peek can be though! prayon | ||||||
231 | shiphra and puah midwifery for today | Exodus | prayon | 19134 | ||
At that time Pharaoh was very worried about the Isrealites multiplying in miraclous numbers because he was worried that in any future war since the Isrealites numbered more than the Egyptians they would join the other side and fight against Egypt. His first plan was to put slave masters over them to oppress them. This did not work. So he decided that he would have all the male children killed. He told the Hebrew midwives to kill all the male babies at birth. These 2 women risked their lives going against Pharaohs orders and not killing the babies. That must of taken great courage! Pharaoh was a mighty man. They risked their lives by blantantly lying to Pharaoh about the babies being born before they could get there. They were motivated by the fear of God. Because of their great motivation God rewarded them. Shiphra and Puah can be an example to us today. We can use their example of courage. We should stand for right and go against that which is wrong even if it means giving we might loose our lives. We can also remember that when we do God will bless us abundently as he did Shiphra and Puah. prayon |

238 | Moses circumcised? | Exodus | prayon | 31931 | ||
Most likely Moses had wanted to circumcise his son but Zipporah with her Midianite background may of opposed the circumcision. When Moses got near death she then remembered and circumcised him herself. God could of just placed it in her heart to do so. prayon | ||||||
239 | what does the burning bush symbolize? | Exodus | prayon | 61174 | ||
Greetings Danielle and welcome to the forum! The burning bush was a supernatural event. The appearance of God in the fire of the burning bush reveals 2 important facts about God. First is God's immanence (a permenant abiding within). Fire is an ancient symbol for God, know as far back as God's appearance to Abraham as a "smoking fire pot with a blazing torch" (Gen 15:17). A bush symbolizes all that is commonplace or near at hand. combining these two things would tell us that the presence of the fire in the bush is symbolic of God's presence at all times and in all things. God is with us. He is the ever present God. The second thing the burning bush tells us is of God's holiness, which sets him apart from sinful humanity and transcendence. Although God is holy and ever present it does not give us the permission or right to intrude upon that holiness. When Moses approached he was commanded to remove his sandals. Sandals carry dirt, the removal of the sandals was symbolic of putting off all personal contamination. It was an act of reverance before God which conveyed his own unworthiiness before God. prayon |
