    Jesus spat on dirt and mad mud and put it on the eyes of the blind man? That mans parents btw were sore afraid of being thrown out of the synagogues for being believers that they darted around the question when asked how their son was healed.

    Early Christian writings along with the NT...

    It's implied. Paul was born in Turkey in the very heart of Greek thought and philosophy, Turkey at the time was at THE center of Hellenist culture and influence (Hella - Greek/Greece), he speaks in a heavy political/commercial greek manner and uses greek terminology when addressing his audience...

    That's another hybrid translation based on the modern Masoretic and the JPS 1917 translation of the Tanakh and re-translated by a guy named Larry This is from the Tanakh translated from the Hebrew to English by a Rabbi Rashi "The spirit of the Lord God was upon me, since the Lord anointed me...

    I agree, "verbatim" was an over statement, I find it more so-to-speak "verbatim" than that of the Masoretic Also true, both instill the same basic phrase just worded differently, However "recovery of site to the blind" even if you choose to allude it with "opening of prisons to those who are...

    Early Christian writings along with the NT...

    I don't get it, I provided the quote in Luke and compared it to Isaiah from the LXX, its verbatim albeit rendered English as was the Masoretic quote I provided where "recovery of sight to the blind" is replaced with "opening of the prisons of them who are bound" Keep in mind that Jesus was...

    He is reading a scroll in a synagogue? He was likely reading from an original Hebrew that the Greek was translated from, the Masoretic comes from a later Hebrew Text, the originals no longer exist

    If the opposite is true then the NT is full of flaws from Jesus' misquotation of Isaiah and Stephen the Martyr "75 souls from Jacobs household" (instead of 70 according to the Masoretic)

    No the 70 sent out I believe in one of Pauls letters if I'm not mistaken

    Right? What about the 70 mentioned in the NT that were sent out to spread the word?

    Early Christian writings along with the NT...

    The English of the Greek Septuagint and English of the Hebrew Masoretic have significant differences, missing verses, quotations, the number of souls of Joseph's household that came to Egypt, different ages in the timeline, obscured prophecy passages etc.. If I am anti-semitic than so were the...

    Early Christian writings along with the NT...

    Yep, wasn't much Hebrew going around except at the Temple or maybe a good handful of Jews in Jerusalem, Paul was even sent to Jerusalem to learn Hebrew. Considering that the NT aligns more with the Greek as far as quotations go, why would you bypass the greek translation and settle for a Hebrew...

    A country divided?

    That's politics I guess! Indeed he is our President elect and may God bless him on his path to lead our nation under God, indivisible with justice for all. I voted, there is nothing left for me to do but pray, Trump did a fantastic job at reviving the economy but it's just so sad how folk like...

    How pagan festival of Easter was used against the Sabbath

    Correct, Jesus showed us how man had changed the Sabbath into something grossly inhumane when he healed on the Sabbath. The priest were enraged at Him for doing his fathers will on the Sabbath, saving the lost sheep, the Sabbath had become a day of darkness for the vulnerable, Christ even...

    Its odd isn't it? that we accept the greek NT in full but it's so difficult for so many to accept the greek that the NT quotes from because "all Jews spoke and wrote Hebrew and not greek" thus only the Hebrew text regardless of when and from who is acceptable. When? Some thousand years after...

    A country divided?

    Very true and that is extremely important but so far all I hear from the left is the opposite, I just swear it seems like all conservatives are being thrown into one bucket under the label "potential threat", has anyone seen AOC's aggressive threat to Senator Cruz that he is not wanted and needs...

    A country divided?

    Well we hardly know anything don't we? I knew Texas was a big red state before I voted so I am far ignorant of the other states.. Hilary got to scream out a stolen election for 4 years and Trump did the same but for only 3 months.. Hillary is still on Twitter even though her theory is debunked...

    A country divided?

    We had four years of the "Russian Collision" conspiracy theory from the left that was investigated and proven false. However when Trump ask for an investigation of voter fraud (for good reason) he is censored by the media and from the social media platforms "Just accept the outcome" If there is...
