Subject: Ammonites and Moabites today? |
Bible Note: Amen Brother, I had to think about that myself and went back to the books. :-) After returning to my studies, I soon realized that that probably was indeed the case, and when returning was glad too, to find your post. The argument for this assertion, [i.e. God was rejecting them becaus of incest], is indeed quite thin, against it, is one fact that God had not given the law yet when Lot's daughters manipulated the situation to repopulate a world they thought was, void of other men. Although that could be, but not easily supported ether, I don't think. However, in favor, it is thought that God's rejection was after the law had been given. That's a pretty thin argument as well I think, and also, not supported by scripture, like you said, and I agree; even if it was, [i.e. suported by scripture] and, 'one' of the reasons, [which is speculative] it was one of many reasons, as you pointed out. Probably should have qualified my post with an, [of corse this is a theory], or something, but then I wouldn't have had the benefit of your post, with more incite on the subject. Thanks for your time Brother Doc! Me like kosher salt! :-) God bless John |
