    God settled the OT canon for the gentiles, if not then what a convenient coincidence isn't it? I wonder what a scriptureless church would be like.

    There was no such thing as "Apocrypha" or "deuterocanonical" books in the Septuagint until Jerome's translation and the church councils that followed coined those words. No 1rst Century Christian ever used those words, the brenton Septuagint does not use those words, neither does the Eastern...

    When we die do we go straight to Heaven?

    “For I know that my Redeemer liveth, and that He shall stand at the latter day upon the earth: And though after my skin worms destroy this body, yet in my flesh shall I see God” -Job Job is waiting for the first resurrection of the dead which is yet to happen, so if he is currently in Heaven in...

    The Catholic church did not add these books, the unbelieving Jews deleted them. Again, THE SEPTUAGINT was what the 1rst, 2nd and 3rd Christians READ, Church leaders wrote letters to the churches and were WELL acquainted with OT scriptures! HOW did they know the OT stories in detail? Sunday...

    Not a canon set by men but rather by the divine orchestrator Himself God Almighty. Man can scribble down whatever he wishes, he can fasten an entire plethora of tall tale exhortations into one book and call it "The Holiest Canon of Holy Books Ever" if he chooses.. The Word comes from GOD alone...

    O.T. quotes in the N.T.

    I'm no expert in Textual Criticism especially at the level of identifying Hebrew and Greek synonyms and even the Rabbis know that any given Hebrew word can be identified with a number of other words. Adam for example means Man, Dirt, Red, etc Supposedly there is a secret message in genesis when...

    Nothing to do with marriage, a Jewish couple living during that era and location would very likely be speaking Greek, how many Jews in America speak fluent Hebrew? In Jerusalem they indeed spoke Hebrew as the dominant language, surrounding Jerusalem the common language was Aramaic, outside the...

    Hellenized Jews are still Hebrew, the tongue does not define them, if they were born of a Jewish mother then they are Hebrew

    Read Daniel 11 and then read 1rst Maccabees, do you not understand the impact Ptolemy had on the nations? Jesus celebrated the "Feast of Dedication", please explain the origins of this Holy day, hint: it has to do withe the 2nd Temple and the Maccabean revolt

    Paul was born a hellenistic Jew, why do you think he was called "Egyptian"? Why would an orthodox Hebrew devote a moment of his time to learn a secular language and culture? He was born in Tarsus and Greek was the main language of both the Greeks and the Jews in Turkey, it does not mean he...

    The Septuagint WAS the canon of the first Christians THERE WAS NO MASORETIC. Why are you so against what they held as scripture? These are the ones who were martyred and yet you attack them by attacking my defense of the Septuagint, and you actually want this moved out of the Christian theology...

    I am a moderator and we are discussing the Greek writings of early Christianity and what set of books they often quoted from including books from the Septuagint that 3 Christian denominations consider canon, Septuagint apologetics is nothing new, a good hand full of early Christian leaders...
