    Doesn’t the book of Hebrews reference Maccabees?

    It doesn’t have to be mentioned by name in order for it to be referenced. When Hebrews 11:34 says that there were those who by faith quenched the flames of fire, that’s clearly referencing Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego. It doesn’t mention the book of Daniel, nor does it mention their names...

    Doesn’t the book of Hebrews reference Maccabees?

    The context of Hebrews 11 is that it is talking about Biblical history. Didn’t you ever learn what context is? I learned it in grade school.

    What silence? I don’t even understand your question. What’s Solomon got to do with anything? I don’t typically respond to weird questions.

    Doesn’t the book of Hebrews reference Maccabees?

    You didn’t answer the question. Who specifically was tortured? Mention it. Reference the specific verse. 2 Maccabees 7 specifically mentions men being tortured. There’s nothing like this in the Old Testament. No story of men being tortured anywhere in the Old Testament. You have nothing.

    Doesn’t the book of Hebrews reference Maccabees?

    I’m not Catholic. No. But because of the fact that Catholics accept these books and Protestants don’t, then some Protestants will deny the obvious truth that Hebrews 11:35 is referencing Maccabees simply because they want to deny anything even remotely related to Catholicism. I have no interest...

    Doesn’t the book of Hebrews reference Maccabees?

    What I don’t understand is why Josiah thinks that a book has to be mentioned by name in order for it to be referenced. For example, when Hebrews 11:33 says that there were those who by faith shut the mouths of lions, we know that this is a reference to Daniel, with the story of the lions den...

    Again, you still haven’t answered who the tortured men are. 2 Maccabees still remains the best explanation.

    You wouldn’t have the ability to love if God did not first love you.

    You failed to answer the question. You have not provided the information as to who the tortured men are. 2 Maccabees 7 is the best match by far. You haven’t provided a better explanation. You fail. You get an F-

    In Hebrews 11:35, it says: “Women received their dead raised to life again. Others were tortured, not accepting deliverance, that they might obtain a better resurrection.” -Hebrews 11:35 (NKJV) Now, when it says women received their dead raised to life, that’s talking about Elijah and Elisha...

    Did God create everything that exists?

    God created the serpent. But the serpent is not the definition of evil. In fact, when God created the animals that creep on the ground, he said that it was good. “And God made the beast of the earth according to its kind, cattle according to its kind, and everything that creeps on the earth...

    Did God create everything that exists?

    Exactly. God created the serpent. God created the angel named Satan. But the serpent is not the definition of evil. Satan is not the definition of evil. Moral evil is the absence of moral good: Moral good has always existed, since God has always existed, since God is morally good. Thus moral...

    Pretty sure you know what’s real and what’s not. Jesus is real. Zeus is not. Horses are real. Centaurs are not.

    Did God create everything that exists?

    The point is to answer the question as to why evil is not God’s creation, yet God is still the Creator of all things.
