44 | Gods | Acts 14:15 | Michael Draves | 200064 | ||
Elohim is usually translated "gods" or "God". John 10:34 is refering to Psalm 82:6: Ps 82:6 I said, "You are gods, And all of you are sons of the Most High. Ps 82:7 "Nevertheless you will die like men And fall like any one of the princes." The word translated "rulers" in Ps 82:1 is a second occurance of Elohim: Ps 82:1 God takes His stand in His own congregation; He judges in the midst of the rulers. Elohim in Exodus 22:8-9,28; 1 Sam 2:25 and possibly Psalm 138:1 should be translated "the judges": Ex 22:8 "If the thief is not caught, then the owner of the house shall appear before the judges, to determine whether he laid his hands on his neighbor's property. Ex 22:9 "For every breach of trust, whether it is for ox, for donkey, for sheep, for clothing, or for any lost thing about which one says, 'This is it,' the case of both parties shall come before the judges; he whom the judges condemn shall pay double to his neighbor. Ex 22:28 "You shall not curse God, nor curse a ruler of your people. 1 Sam 2:25 "If one man sins against another, God will mediate for him; but if a man sins against the LORD, who can intercede for him?" But they would not listen to the voice of their father, for the LORD desired to put them to death. Ps 138:1 I will give You thanks with all my heart; I will sing praises to You before the gods. |

45 | Apostles wrote the NT or the Greeks?? | Acts 16:10 | Michael Draves | 233286 | ||
Acts 20:1-2 distinguishes between Macedonia and Greece. There was someone named John on the island of Patmos (Rev 1:9) that might be considered Greek but he focuses on churches to the east in "Asia" which we call Turkey. Rev 1:4,11 |

46 | Apostles wrote the NT or the Greeks?? | Acts 16:10 | Michael Draves | 233318 | ||
lionheart I agree with what you said. Anna 91's original question "if the Apostles wrote the New Testament why do some say it is interpreted from the Greeks" most likely means she misheard "from the Greek" which I answered with "The New Testament we have is translated from Greek." I then tried to proceed with her actual question with how you might attempt to answer it. If someone asked me now if someone was Greek I would assume they meant where they or their ancestors came from. This is not how "Greek" is apparently is used in the New Testament which we can look at later. Since people travel obviously where they are at any given time doesn't determine their nationality. The quality of someones Greek writing can also not be used to determine if they were of Greek nationality. The opinions I have seen puts the written Greek of Luke, Acts and Hebrews at the higher end and Revelation at the low end of quality. Higher quality written Greek could come from any one educated at the time or even from the influence of an amanuensis. Since Egypt had been part of the Greek empire it is interesting that there is a surprise that Paul spoke Greek in Acts 21:37-38. Since Cephas and Saul are better known by Greek names it becomes obvious that nationality can't be determined by a name. If one were looking at the a Greek text you might try to eliminate documents as coming from a Greek author by the presense of semitisms but semitisms could come in by incorporation of a literal transalation, imitation of the Septuagint or absorption from associates. Apparently Luke has a higher frequency of semitisms in the sections not in common with Matthew and Mark than in those in common (see The Hebrew Gospel and the Development of the Synoptic Tradition p. 142). So without a statement of nationality I don't see a way to deduce it and the only source to look to is the traditions of the early church fathers. So who is considered Greek in the New Testament? Greeks seek after wisdom in 1 Cor 1:22. In Acts 11:20 those in nearby Antioch are referred to as Greeks might be anyone who is Gentile but barbarians are not considered to be Greeks in Rom 1:14. Paul says he wants to preach to those in Rome in Rom 1:15. Is everyone either classified as a Jew or a Greek in Rom 1:16, 2:9-10, 3:9 and 10:12? Paul claimed to be a Roman in Acts 22:27-28, and a Hebrew in 2 Cor 11:22 and Phil 3:5 but never a Greek. |

Greek has a fourth called storge (love of kindred, Thayer p. 82 under astorgos) which does not occur in the New Testament but words with the same root are used. astorgos (without natural affection, Thayer p. 82) a form is used in Rom 1:31 and 2 Tim 3:3. Rom 1:31 without understanding, untrustworthy, unloving, unmerciful; 2 Tim 3:3 unloving, irreconcilable, malicious gossips, without self-control, brutal, haters of good, filostorgos (the mutual love of parents and children; also of husbands and wives, Thayer p. 655) a form is used in Rom 12:10 Rom 12:10 Be devoted to one another in brotherly love; give preference to one another in honor; |

kcollins I am sure you have some theological point to make but in this context wouldn't "Jesus' time" obviously refering to the first third of the first century if changed to "Yahweh's time" either be taken by most people as always or not even making sense? |

51 | explain chapter 3:1-4 | Colossians | Michael Draves | 103672 | ||
Ruth I think your question got overlooked when you tried to clarify it. Col 3:1 Therefore if you have been raised up with Christ, keep seeking the things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Col 3:2 Set your mind on the things above, not on the things that are on earth. Col 3:3 For you have died and your life is hidden with Christ in God. Col 3:4 When Christ, who is our life, is revealed, then you also will be revealed with Him in glory. Paul sees believers as being with Christ in death, burial and resurrection. As a believer in Christ you would thus be seated in Heaven seated "at the right hand of God." Paul is trying to get believers to focus on there spiritual reality instead of the external appearances which he discusses in the previous chapter. One of the things he says there is: Col 2:16 Therefore no one is to act as your judge in regard to food or drink or in respect to a festival or a new moon or a Sabbath day-- Col 2:17 things which are a mere shadow of what is to come; but the substance belongs to Christ. |

53 | 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. |

54 | rasied dead died twice? | 1 Thess 4:17 | Michael Draves | 106337 | ||
The term "beloved disciple" does not occur in the Fourth Gospel until after the resurrection of Lazarus. In 11:3 Lazarus is called "he whom you love." If Lazarus is the "beloved disciple" then the statement in the chapter 21:22-23 of the Fourth Gospel makes sense and is relevent to your question whether 'lazarus is still alive physically until the Lord comes.' John 21 22 Jesus said to him, "If I want him to remain until I come, what is that to you? You follow Me!" 23 Therefore this saying went out among the brethren that that disciple would not die; yet Jesus did not say to him that he would not die, but only, "If I want him to remain until I come, what is that to you?" |

55 | was luke a christian? | Philem 1:24 | Michael Draves | 148747 | ||
You are right that John Mauck proposed the theory that Luke wrote Luke and Acts to defend Paul. I loaned out my copy to a lawyer friend and couldn't remember the proper attribution. I think that people who have something in common with an author may have some valid insights that a Bible scholar or historian might miss. Of course it could just be a lawyer seeing a legal defense because he was looking for one. | ||||||

Tamara: I was just posting a note intended to be in keeping with the intended purpose of the forum, as I understand it, from reading page linked from "About the forum". It was a note and not a question. I am not sure how you as an individual can state "you have lost us all" especially since yours is the only response. Since there are different types of Bible Study maybe something other than exegesis is meant to build an "expository repository". I thought maybe college exegetical notes on 1 Peter and 1 Thessalonians and maybe some more recent work on Ecclesiastes might be worth posting. The following is beginning of the page linked to by "About the Forum". 'What is StudyBibleForum.com? It's a free resource in an open access environment for all users to ask questions, give answers, and experience spiritual growth as a result. For the layman, it's a 24-hour source of evolving Bible study notes with which to contrast and compare. For the teacher and scholar, it's an opportunity to freely share your knowledge. The StudyBibleForum.com is built from the "Bible" up. A synergetic resource built to enhance and deepen your study of God's Word. It's like a free study Bible with an unlimited margin, that contained helpful verse notes, and was continually expanding. A resource where you can access and/or contribute to a dynamic repository of verse notes. It's not a discussion group or topical survey, but an ever growing "expository repository" that gives the layman and scholar an opportunity to share truth and contribute wisdom.' Michael |

58 | If you are reviled IN the name of Christ | 1 Pet 4:14 | Michael Draves | 148746 | ||
The commentary says "spirit of glory" in lower case. I think it is a consideration for the translator on what to capitialize and for the reader to think about on their own. The word "spirit" only occurs once though it has two articles referring to it and "of glory" and "of God" each have an article so they don't refer to the same object but since "spirit" only occurs once for the "of God" then I would probably capitalize it. When teletypes came out it was decided to use all upper case, even though all lower case was easier to read, so "God" could be written as "GOD" instead of "god". |

59 | Where is Ps 88:28? | Rev 1:5 | Michael Draves | 204739 | ||
In the Greek Septuagint the later added numbering misses what is the 10th Psalm so the 11th Psalm is marked as the 10th and so on. So the Psalm marked as 88th in the Greek Septuagint is actually the 89th. | ||||||

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. |
