They memorized them. | ||||||
42 | Does "'almah" mean "virgin"? | Is 7:14 | djconklin | 27886 | ||
Nolan, You may find, as I did, that there is actually an abundance of evidence supporting the idea that "'almah" meant virgin. Well, I better cut this short lest I be accused once more of "blah, blah, blah". |
||||||
43 | Why was Jesus named “Jesus”? | Is 7:14 | djconklin | 28273 | ||
"I think DJConklin is mixing the how Tyndale came up the word Jehovah out of the tetragram YHWH rather than addressing the word Jesus." I wasn't thinking of that at all. |

"or "Learn Greek in Only 15 Minutes a Day"." Actually, you'd probably be amazed at the number of Greek words you already know (I'm working on compiling a list, last count I had about 30-40 words)! According to one of my NT profs (who when he referred us to the Bible we could tell that he was reading straight from the Greek) that if we practiced 15 minutes a day based on what we were taught we could do the same as he could. One of the bomnes I'd pick with most translators/translations is that even a modicum of research shows that they goofed in places. |

Then why did you even suggest it? | ||||||

I have changed web sites and the new one (still in process of working on it) is at http://members.tcq.net/dconklin/Isa714/open.html | ||||||
47 | Does "'almah" mean "virgin"? | Is 7:14 | djconklin | 64885 | ||
No problem; in fact your post basically summed up what I found. | ||||||
48 | Does "almah" mean "virgin"? | Is 7:14 | djconklin | 64886 | ||
Sean, I'll check into the web site you suggested. |

49 | Why scholars refuse the book of Daniel? | Daniel | djconklin | 25868 | ||
If you want to have all the evidence (that I know of anyway!) about the date of the book of Daniel go to http://biblestudy.iwarp.com--I looked at 150 sources and gathered everything together. | ||||||
50 | What kind of whale swallowed Jonah? | Jonah | djconklin | 25866 | ||
We have no idea what kind of sea animal swallowed Jonah. There is some anecdotal evidence of people being swallowed whole even by sharks and in one case came out alive when harpooned afterwards. | ||||||
51 | Jonah ever get over his hatred? | Jonah | djconklin | 25867 | ||
Good question! And like the carefully constructed short story that it is we aren't told (who's the hero of the book? How many characters in the story have names? Where'd Jonah get spit out? How'd he get to Nineveh? How long did that take?). However, given that the book is full of ironies (like a prophet of God disobeying and trying to run away (to where pray tell?), pagan sailors who offer a sacrifice as soon as they are able, a city repents, even the cattle wear sackcloth, etc.) it is highly likely that Jonah wrote it himself (reserving the ultimate irony for himself)--note that it is Jonah who gives the theology of the whole book: Jonah 4:2b. |
||||||
52 | A Hebrew Version of Matthew? | Matthew | djconklin | 25818 | ||
I have read that; in fact, the source (which I don't recall off-hand) said that something like a dozen experts have each on their own re-translated the Greek into Hebrew and found that it worked quite well. It also makes sense: if you were writing a Gospel to appeal to the Jews in that day and age and had structured the book along the lines of the Pentateuch what language would you write it in? |
||||||
53 | if we know somebody has a problem with | Matthew | djconklin | 25820 | ||
Neither, confess your sin against your brother. Approach them privately in a kind and gentle manner (pray first) and tell them how it felt when they said or did what they did or said (they may not even realize that they offended you!). Tell them that it affects your relationship negatively and that you don't want that. |

54 | why Mt.8:28 talks about two men and Mk 5 | Matthew | djconklin | 25821 | ||
In Mark we have an "oral transcript" of what Peter preached. In this case Peter is focussing his attention on only one of the two demonics; he is not saying that there was only one. | ||||||
55 | the life of Christ other than the four g | Matthew | djconklin | 25825 | ||
Josephus. If you can get ahold of Jesus Under Fire. By Michael Wilkins and J.P. Moreland there's an article in there by the historian Edwin Yamauchi who shows all of the sources outside the Bible that shows that thery knew Jesus existed. Also you can ask your self this: how many carpenters in Vermont do you know of? And this in a day and age of TV, radio, mass media and satellites! |

56 | A Hebrew Version of Matthew? | Matthew | djconklin | 25860 | ||
Nolan, I have seen the remarks by Papias and Ireneaus before but I have never heard of the others commenting on this! Could you tell me where the quotes can be found? Also where are the 3 Hebrew mss of Matthew that you mentioned? I never heard of that either! This is exciting! Could also give me the link to the thread you mentioned? It also helps confirm a thesis of mine that Matthew wrote very early--possibly around 35-40 A.D.. |

57 | what is your treasure? | Matt 6:21 | djconklin | 32086 | ||
Not precisely, and Matthew 6:21 | ||||||
58 | what is your treasure? | Matt 6:21 | djconklin | 32087 | ||
See also Luke 12:34 | ||||||
59 | Then precisely what is it talking about? | Matt 6:21 | djconklin | 32095 | ||
Jesus is saying that we should get our priorities straight. If we try for wealth in this world it can be destroyed or stolen in one way or another. But, if we set our treasure in heaven then it is safe for all time. So, in terms of material wealth we could ask: are you interested in being a millionaire or are you interested in saving people's souls from eternal destruction? | ||||||
60 | Then precisely what is it talking about? | Matt 6:21 | djconklin | 32109 | ||
AMEN! I once "figured" that if we did we could end this world's history in a matter of months. | ||||||
