    Jesus is the Son of his God

    https://jewsforjesus.org/answers/what-is-the-source-of-jewish-monotheism People who say there is no such thing as Jewish monotheism are doing nothing more than flouting their ignorance on the subject. There are a plethora of books and articles written by scholars on the topic of Jewish...

    Jesus is the Son of his God

    Returning now to the OP, Jesus is the Son of his Father. Jesus is the Son of his God. ”Blessed be the God and Father of our lord Jesus Messiah.” (Ephesians 1:3, 2 Corinthians 1:3; 1 Peter 1:3) Easy verses to remember 1:3, 1:3, 1:3. Repeated for emphasis. Rejected early in the thread by...

    Jesus is the Son of his God

    The difference between the two translations I was comparing is a bright one. John is a Jewish monotheist. In his prologue he is taking his readers back to the Genesis creation account. It was the Father who spoke the creation into existence. John isn’t speaking about two persons (and certainly...

    Jesus is the Son of his God

    There is nothing wrong with the link I provided. I’ve used it for over a decade without experiencing any problem with it. I’ve never heard anyone (before now) who clicked on the link say that they had a problem with it. I don’t know what the nature of the problem you had clicking on it so...

    Jesus is the Son of his God

    I gave you the link to the Geneva Bible but it doesn’t appear to me that you looked at it. I’ll quote the prologue from John’s Gospel for you in this post. Please compare it carefully to the translation which you posted. ” 1 In the beginning was that Word, and that Word was with God, and that...

    All of them do.

    Jesus is the Son of his God

    I don’t reject any verses. I understand all passages of scripture - Old Testament and New Testament - from the perspective of the Messiah’s own Jewish monotheism.

    Jesus is the Son of his God

    No. That isn’t correct. As I said, God is creating the coming age by Messiah.

    Jesus is the Son of his God

    I’m doing that, and I’m doing it slowly for a purpose.

    Jesus is the Son of his God

    No. That is not correct. As the trinitarian scholar Colin Brown said, that is a patent misreading of scripture. You’re reading Jesus into the text, not out of the text.

    I understood what you’re asking, and thank you for asking. I’m slowly walking you through it.

    Jesus is the Son of his God

    Will you look at the verses as they are rendered in the Geneva Bible? http://www.genevabible.org/geneva.html You’re going to see Jewish monotheism if you do.

    Jesus is the Son of his God

    In the beginning God - not the Son of God - created the heavens and the earth @Truly. “God said … “ - that’s not Jesus. That’s not the Messiah. God didn’t speak by his Son, the Messiah, until “these last days”.

    Jesus is the Son of his God

    God is the Father, Yahweh. He did not speak by his Son (Jesus) in the Hebrew Bible. ”These last days” began in the New Testament. Some people might say “these last days” began with the conception of Jesus in the womb of the virgin. Some might say that “these last days” began when Jesus embarked...

    Jesus is the Son of his God

    I understand all of them through the lens of Jewish monotheism. Let’s look at the last verse which you quoted, Hebrews 1:1. Did God speak by his Son in the Hebrew Bible / Old Testament? We can answer that question by identifying when “these last days” began.

    Jesus is the Son of his God

    Obtained from a search of my posts for “dual number” - Post in thread '˒ĕlōhı̂m: Plural Persons, or Majesty?' ˒ĕlōhı̂m: Plural Persons, or Majesty? This is elementary Hebrew language textbook information. True, not false.
