Bible Note: Shalom sister Azure, I haven't read the complete thread so I may be just repeating someone else, or I may not have your question understood completely. But I think one of your questions was about the word "compass"ing a woman from Jer. 31:22. I don't know if this will help or not but I use the Complete Jewish Bible which uses the Jewish English translation of the Old Testament, so here is how it reads from that version: Jer. 31:21 Set up road signs, erect guideposts, pay attention the to highway, the path on which you traveled. Come back, virgin Isra'el, come back to these cities of yours! Jer. 31:22 How long will you hesitate you unruly daughter? For Adonai has created something new on earth: a woman with the strengths of a man. Jer. 31:23 Here is what Adonai Tzva'ot, the God of Isra'el, says: "This expression will be used again in the land of Y'hudah and its cities after I have returned their exiles: 'May Adonai bless you, home of justice, holy mountain!' Sounds like Zion is being spoken about. If I got lost in the thought of the thread, just ignore me :-) Cheri |
