And thus we keep seeking the connections between what is recorded in books and the resurrection. The books (plural) that record actions and the book of life which records those that are faithful to YHWH only. I suspect all the book recordings are a way to express that nothing is hid from GOD...

The Lord Jesus Christ said a house divided cannot stand.

1 Timothy 1 ESV (16) But I received mercy for this reason, that in me, as the foremost, Jesus Christ might display his perfect patience as an example to those who were to believe in him for eternal life. (17) To the King of the ages, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory...

The book of Revelation is all about the revelation of the Lord Jesus Christ. It is Christ centered, not Israel centered. Revelation 1 (1) The revelation of Jesus Christ ....

The Son of Man didn't come to be served, but to serve. And He practiced that principle by washing the feet of others just as others had washed His feet. It would do us all good to participate in the same practice. Matthew 20:25-28 ESV (25) But Jesus called them to him and said, “You know that...

The only other two verses where a tamrisk tree is specifically mentioned: 1 Samuel 22:6 ESV (6) Now Saul heard that David was discovered, and the men who were with him. Saul was sitting at Gibeah under the tamarisk tree on the height with his spear in his hand, and all his servants were...

Gotta admire a man who spent years and years going over every verse and every word of scripture, and also correlate those words and verses with other words and verses and also different manuscripts. And did it all by hand without a computer. Imagine how much more he would have done if the Dead...

That's fine. I'll stick with the resurrection talk. Revelation 20 ESV (5) The rest of the dead did not come to life until the thousand years were ended. This is the first resurrection. (6) Blessed and holy is the one who shares in the first resurrection! Over such the second death has no...

I'm always up for a good foot washing.

Scholars tend to agree that Revelation has more illusions to the OT than all the other NT books combined, but it doesn't specifically quote any of them. Instead, John will use several OT passages with the imagery used in those stories that will remind people of those OT images, sometimes...

Thanks for the info.

The Exorcist: Believer Don't waste any money thinking this movie will be chip off the old block of the original. This one is a pile of junk! THE worst movie about exorcism ever! The whole plot theme of the movie is to get everyone to accept that you don't have to search for a man of God for...

Thank you. That will clear up that it is not the tree itself that drops the manna but is from insects that are attracted to the foliage of the tree. Since Abraham was a wanderer, why do you suppose he bothered to plant a tree (or trees) that would take several years to mature? I be way off as...

I liken the moral of the story to the tree of knowledge of good and evil. Or as the character in Jurasic Park said, "Just because you can do something doesn't mean it should be done." Or to quote another saying ...... "The road to hell is paved with good intentions." King Saul had the dead...

To the end! It's hard to miss that we see times that former believers stop believing when troublesome times come, and those tribulations causes them to come to the conclusion that God does not exist at all, so they completely abandon their belief in Him. So it's not just the moment one believes...

It has also been suggested that Mary Shelly's story of Frankenstein was a spin on the golem legend.

A few theories have circulated about the deeper meaning of Gollum's name, but one of the most common ones is that the moniker is a nod to the word "golem." Tolkien was known for his love of language, and Hebrew was one of the many languages he had studied. The phrase can be found in Jewish and...

Golem connection to A.I. (artificial intelligence) and the image of the beast in Revelation 13 This is going to be one of those "off the beaten path" type threads, so take it with a grain of salt. The Hebrew word "golem" shows up in Ps 139:16 as an unformed substance being formed from the...

Genesis 21:33 ESV (33) Abraham planted a tamarisk tree in Beersheba and called there on the name of the LORD, the Everlasting God. Seems a tad bit odd that this specific thing would even be mentioned, and scripture gives no further information as to why Abraham did this. Beersheba was in...

I responded to the post CM made. That is not "butting in". Oh for pete sake, stop being so illogical. I acknowledged that your questions existed and said it it was not the direction I was interested in. Good grief, out of one side of your mouth you say you have the right to act insulting...
