Bible Question (short): "Your bread"?Or "loaves of Bread"? |
Question (full): Hi Kalos, Your post said that "The Hebrew in Deuteronomy 8:3 has "mouth of the Lord"; the Septuagint has "mouth of God". It is this latter that Jesus quotes." Jesus quoted that in Matthew 4:4. It is interesting to note that the NU text for the companion reference in Luke 4:4 omits that phrase "but on every word of God". These things have been thought about and discussed before don't you think? I wonder if you think that since Lord and God are both the same, we could look instead at the verse concerning the stones. The important thing to my mind is whether this Man is capable of changing the stones into Bread. Question: Does the Greek allow or suggest that there is "possession" involved. In other words could we interpret this verse concerning the stones in both Matthew 4:3 and Luke 4:3 as being "Your bread" or "loaves of Bread"? From the heart, Ray |
