Bible Note: Hello coper44, Am I reading you right when you suggest the following? “It's interesting to note how many times Jesus used the word "you" when answering his disciples questions. This indicates that Jesus was referring to the generation to which he was speaking (see also Matt. 23:36).” Are you making a statement that the word “you”, as used in the Olivet Discourse, is only referring to those that were within hearing range of Christ’s voice? If that’s the case, then everything that he spoke to them, doesn’t pertain to us, right? I guess then, if that’s the case, you don’t believe the word “you” was rhetorical in nature and includes the scope of all believers? Please clear this up for me or am I not understanding what you are saying, CDBJ |
