Bible Question:
Who was the three men that stood by God in Genesis Chapter 18. The King David Book. And the Lord appered unto him in the plains of Mam-re and he sat in the tent door in the heat of the day: 2 And he lift up his eyes and looked and, lo three men stood by him: and when he saw them, he ran to meet them from the tent door, and bowed himself toward the ground. 3. And said, My Lord if now I have found favour in thy sight, pass not away, I pray thee, from thy servant: 4. Let a little water, I pray you, be ferched. and wash your feet, and rest yourselves under the tree: 5 And I will fetch a morsel of bread, and comfort ye your hearts: after that ye shall pass on: for therefore are ye come to your servant. And they said,so do, as thou hast said. 6 And Abraham hastened into the tent unto Sarah, and said, Make ready quickly three measures of fine meal,knead it, and make cakes upon the hearth. 7 And Abraham ran unto the herd, and fetcht a Calf tender and good, and gave it unto a young man: and he hasted to dress it. 8 And he took butter, and milk, and the Calf which he had dressed, and set it before them; and he stood by them under the tree, and they did eat 9 And they said unto him, Where is Sarah thy wife? And he said, Behold, in the tent. 10. And he said I will certainly return unto thee according to the time of life: and , lo Sarah thy wife will have a son. Sarah and Abraham are 99 years old.

Bible Answer: The King David Book? We commonly call the first book of the Bible "Genesis." As for who thre three men were, it is clear from the following chapter that two of them were angels. Many people consider the third to be the pre-incarnate Son of God in human form, a situation commonly called a "theophany." If indeed that is the case, that does not mean that God previously existed as a true human being before His human nature was conceived in the womb of the virgin Mary. And it certainly doesn't mean that angels can't eat or don't have feet! --Joe! |
