    How did Jesus know that Zechariah had been murdered when the Old Testament never records it?

    Yea, that could have been worded a little better

    How did Jesus know that Zechariah had been murdered when the Old Testament never records it?

    Yea, no duh. But the Pharisees to whom Jesus was speaking had to go by more than just Jesus’ word. Remember, they didn’t believe he is God. Obviously there had to be a record that Zechariah was murdered, or else the Pharisees wouldn’t accept Jesus’ claim that he was murdered. Your comment has ME...

    How long were the Israelites slaves in Egypt?

    It says 430 years in Egypt. But I don’t understand how to get 400 years of slavery out of that.

    How did Jesus know that Zechariah had been murdered when the Old Testament never records it?

    “that on you may come all the righteous blood shed on the earth, from the blood of righteous Abel to the blood of Zechariah, son of Berechiah, whom you murdered between the temple and the altar.” -Matthew 23:35 https://www.biblegateway.com/passage?search=Matthew%2023:35&version=NKJV “In the...

    What book of the Bible did Peter get this from?

    “For if God did not spare the angels who sinned, but cast them down to hell and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved for judgment;” -2 Peter 2:4 https://www.biblegateway.com/passage?search=2%20Peter%202:4&version=NKJV I don’t remember reading about this in my Old Testament...

    I think it’s both in many cases. It has to be understood as to who is speaking to who. But it can also be understood prophetically, in the sense that God is speaking to us today. But every example is a different example. I’ve heard a lot of Hebrew Roots people say that the 400 years of slavery...

    Who was sawn in two?

    He was a Christian the 2nd century. He seems to be insinuating that the Martyrdom of Isaiah was in his Bible, as well as the Bible of other Christians, and that he believes that the Jews deleted it out of their copies. I think that should at least be taken seriously.

    Who was sawn in two?

    The Bible tells us the story of the people who crossed the Red Sea. We know at least some of their names. Where’s they story in the Old Testament where at least 1 person was sawn in two?

    Who was sawn in two?

    That’s an assumption on your part. Couldn’t someone also make the assumption that if it’s going to tell us that someone was sawn in two, then the Spirit is expecting us to know who it was that was sawn in two? After all, look at the context. It says that some shut the mouths of lions. Don’t you...

    Why shouldn’t it be considered?

    Who was sawn in two?

    Does the Old Testament list all those who shut the mouths of lions? I don’t see your point.

    Who was sawn in two?

    Or the author of Hebrews is bearing witness that the Apocryphal work of the Martyrdom of Isaiah was a part of their Bible at that time. Justin Martyr bears witness that the Jews deleted it. Why should that option not be considered?

    Who was sawn in two?

    The author of Hebrews clearly expected his audience to know who shut the mouths of lions, who quenched the flames of fire, and who the women were that received their dead raised to life. We know who they are, because they’re in our Old Testament. The author of Hebrews mentions them expecting his...

    Who was sawn in two?

    I think the author was expecting his audience to know who he was taking about. Just like you would expect to know who shut the mouths of lions.

    Who was sawn in two?

    Thanks for your judgmental criticism. But I’m still interested to know who it was that was sawn in two.

    What did Justin Martyr mean by “transmutation”?

    In this quote, Justin Martyr mentions transmutation. What did he mean by this? What’s the original Greek word (or if he spoke it in Latin, what’s the original Latin word?). How was that original word used in daily use in that generation? How was it used in conversation? What context is it...

    Mary’s Perpetual Virginity

    I was also thinking that it originated from the false “gospel of James” The question is, what motivated someone to make up this fiction about Mary? I wonder if it had anything to do with Diana or Artemis. I believe Diana (or Artemis) was supposedly a perpetual virgin (according to myth). They...

    Mary’s Perpetual Virginity

    I don’t see anything in the Bible that says, or even implies, that Mary remained a virgin the rest of her life. It seems to suggest that Mary and Joseph slept together AFTER Jesus was born, as you would expect anyway in any normal marriage (after all, Gabriel DID tell Joseph to go ahead and...
