Shalom, veteran. I didn't miss it, brother. It's just not part of Daniel 8! Daniel 8 doesn't go that far into the future! Now, Daniel 11 and 12 DO go into the Roman Empire some, but only for Caesar Augustus and Herod the Great under the Roman power. Daniel 8 only goes through the Hasmonean Rule...

Shalom, Raeneske. This is totally scrambled like eggs on the frying pan! The "1 day = 1 year" interpretation ONLY applies to those prophecies that SPECIFICALLY specify such an interpretation. As you have noted, it was specifically for Numbers 14:34 and for Ezekiel 4:4-6, but it was NOT to be...

Shalom, ajdiamond. That's only because you fail to recognize it as a FUTURE, literal, physical, concrete Kingdom! These parables are not about the "now"; they are about the KINGDOM which won't exist until Yeshua` HaMashiach returns to be its KING! The ONLY parable in Matthew 13, Mark 4, and...

Shalom, ajdiamond. Sorry, but the REAL woe is to those who think that Yeshua` was saying that the Kingdom of God is WITHIN MEN! It most certainly IS NOT! The ONLY place in Scripture that says something that SOUNDS like that is Luke 17:21: Luke 17:21 21 Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo...

Shalom, veteran. Aw, sure it is, bro'! Just quit using the term as though it was a LABEL! All three instances in Dani'el are NOT talking about the same thing, even though the wording is somewhat similar. While Dani'el 8:9-13 and 11:31 are talking about Antiochus IV "Epiphanes," Dani'el 9:24-27...

Shalom, ajdiamond. Here's the Greek of this verse: Lukas 12:40 40 Kai humeis ginesthe hetoimoi, hoti hee hoora ou dokeite ho Huios tou Anthroopou erchetai. The Greek New Testament (UBS) 40 Kai = 40 And/Also humeis = you ginesthe = be hetoimoi, = ready, hoti = because hee = the hoora = hour ou...

Shalom, daq! FINALLY! Now we're getting to the heart of the matter! Allow me to answer your questions: First, the terminology of the question is slightly off. One is NOT truly cleansed from all evil within, but one CAN be truly cleansed from all sin and its consequences! 1 John 1:5-2:14 5...

Shalom, ajdiamond. Sure, it's simple enough. The Son of man (Yeshua` haMashiach) will come when one is not expecting Him to come. He will take people by surprise. Even if they say they are "expecting Him to come at any moment," the reality is that He will still spring on us without warning...

Shalom, veteran. The problem with Matthew 24:15 is merely in the wording between Greek and Hebrew. It looks and sounds like it would be closer to Daniel 11 when both are translated into English, but Yeshua`s words in Matthew 24:15 are actually referring to Daniel 9:27, not Daniel 11:31. Leave...

Shalom, daq. Talking to yourself is not a good sign, bro'. Okay, I'll ask: Do you see these beautiful amethyst stones? Did you notice that they are found in geodes? Did you take note of how MANY of them are found in each sphere? Have you taken the time to notice that their crystal structure is...

Shalom, veteran. Yes, you are right about the word "niVzeh" applying to a person. As you noted the pronoun-translations of the verbs in the verse point to a "he" (masculine-singular) and this word is an adjective that simply doesn't have the noun that it modifies with it in the verse. Context...

Shalom, veteran. Take heart, brother, the answer is simpler than that. Daq is suggesting that "Blepoo" means "I take heed" or "I pay attention to." It actually just means "I see" or "I look at." Matthew 24:2 simply is saying "Do you not see all these things?" or "Are you not looking at all...

Shalom, veteran. Well, sir, you would HAVE to say that in order to use the prophecy that was FULFILLED by Antiochus Epiphanes for the Antichrist, too! Let me help you here. The prophecy in Dani'el 11 was fulfilled by SEVERAL figures in history, not just Antiochus. It started with the last four...

Shabbat shalom, everyone. I was reading through these last few posts, and I've gotta chime in. Any time that one of you is having a problem with what is said or concluded, it appears to me that what is happening is that one or both of you have some term or terms that you are treating as...

Shabbat shalom, Brothertom. No. That doesn't work. NO prophecy has a "dual fulfillment." That's confusion pure and simple. If there were such a thing, how would you know when the prophecy had been fulfilled?! A prophecy ONLY has force if it has a definite, one-time-only fulfillment. Otherwise...

Shalom, Asyncritus. EXACTLY! The New Jerusalem, once it lands AFTER the Great White Throne Judgment, will TOWER above the atmosphere! The atmosphere is considered to be about 200 miles thick and at the most 300 miles as it rarifies with every mile. The New Jerusalem will tower 1,500 miles above...

Shalom, Pilgrimer. Well, I find this entirely illuminating. You say, "A true allegory is a literal/historical event that conveys a symbolic meaning, such as Jesus' use of the historical account of Jonah as an allegory for his own sufferings. A story that is not an actual historical event but is...

Shalom, Jacob_Rising. Amen, bro! All Pharisee (Parush) means is a "Separatist," and sometimes I think they get a bum rap! The problem was not that the P'rushiym of Yeshua`s day were P'rushiym (plural of Parush) but was because they were HYPOCRITES!

Shalom, Pilgrimer. You've misunderstood. I didn't say that allegory arose in the 2nd and 3rd centuries; I said that allegorISM arose in the 2nd and 3rd centuries. I'm talking about the allegorical method of interpreting the Scriptures as opposed to the natural, grammatical, historical method of...

Shalom, Pilgrimer. Nonsense. If you can't recognize what Yeshua` was doing for 3.5 years, then what makes you think that you have any of the rest of the NT correct? Yeshua` (Jesus) certainly DID “offer the kingdom” to Israel during His ministry, and it had to be a valid offer or NONE of the...
