Bible Note: What "en"? Do you mean "eta" (or)? The mss used as the base for the KJV (not a strict translation but more of an updating of previous English translations) were few in number and not representative of all that is out there today. We now know with a fair degree of certainty that Paul used the word "kai" which means "and". BTW, Col. 2:16-17 was written in Greek not Hebrew. I use a wide variety of translations and I do not rely on any specific one. I use BibleWorks 4.0 (5.0 just came out; check it out, it is very powerful and has the Greek and the Hebrew so you can call up a verse and scroll over either the Greek or Hebrew word and see what each word means.) Daniel wrote in Hebrew; Paul wrote in Greek. Two totally different languages, letters, words and grammatical rules. You are correct in your quess that some of the festivals have not yet been fulfilled. It has been noted that the spring festivals were predictive of Christ's first coming and that the fall are about His second coming. As I noted in my study there are a number of people who have written about the festivals. My study was not on that aspect per se. It was a grammatical and linguistic analysis of the text. |
