    TOBIT -by NathanH83

    Your link is inaccurate. Tobit wasn't a Jew. He was an Israelite from the tribe of Naphtali. He was of the northern kingdom of Israel, not the southern kingdom of Judah. And yes, it's true that modern-day Jews don't accept it. But Jews before Christ did because they added it to the Greek...

    TOBIT -by NathanH83

    Tobit was translated into Greek in the 2nd century. That's not when it was authored in Hebrew.

    The Flood: Historical event or Fable?

    "They rose greatly on the earth, and all the high mountains under the entire heavens were covered. The waters rose and covered the mountains to a depth of more than twenty feet." -Genesis 7:19-20 Do local floods cover the highest mountains under the entire heavens?

    Did Jesus quote the Apocrypha?

    Ok, well, Jesus clearly says that he's talking about the son of Berechiah, but you're talking about the son of Jehoiada. Do you have an explanation why you're mixing them up? Zechariah 1:1 clearly says that this Zechariah is the son of Berechiah. Wouldn't the natural assumption be that Jesus is...

    Did Jesus quote the Apocrypha?

    You need to read Zechariah 1:1. It states that Zechariah son of Berechiah lived during the reign of Darius. That's about 500 BC, about a century after the Babylonian captivity. That's about a whole 3 centuries after the Zechariah son of Jehoiada from 2 Chronocles. This Zechariah lived during...

    Did Jesus quote the Apocrypha?

    Why did you lie about Jesus talking about the Zechariah in 2 Chronicles, when Jesus is clearly talking about a completely different Zechariah a whole 300 years later? The Zechariah in 2 Chronicles 24:20 is the son of Jehoiada, and he lived during the reign of Joash King of Judah, around the year...

    OT post flood genealogy off a tad according to original hebrew text

    At least watch the first 5 seconds. You might find it enjoyable. I tried to make it as entertaining as I could, for people with a short attention span and need a good laugh every now and then.

    Did Jesus quote the Apocrypha?

    Oh, I agree. The KJV has errors because its Old Testament was derived from the corrupt Hebrew Masoretic text. There are many instances where the KJV is more accurate than modern versions (like with unicorns), but it's not the original and should not be treated as such.

    Did Jesus quote the Apocrypha?

    The King James Translators were convinced that the Apostles sided with the Septuagint. They said so in their note "From the Translators to the Reader." And somehow their disciples, and their disciples, and their disciples became convinced that the "Apocryphal" books (as you call them) were a...

    Did Jesus quote the Apocrypha?

    Wouldn't the Apocryphal books have been added after the 72 translators had died? Ptolemy II was around 250 BC. But the Maccabees lived around 160 BC. Surely you don't think these 72 scholars added Maccabees 100 years later. Wouldn't someone later have done the work?

    Did Jesus quote the Apocrypha?

    Ah! Ok. And where does it say that only Levites can translate the Bible? I'm pretty sure most of our Bibles today were not translated by Levites.

    Did Jesus quote the Apocrypha?

    Where does it say that only Levites can translate the scriptures into a foreign language? I'm not seeing that. This really concerns me because I'm pretty sure that the 50 translators of my King James Bible were not Levites. Can you show me the exact verse and explain it?
