    The Repentant Woman, Mary of Bethany, and Mary Magdalene: One Figure?

    We already went over this....all this proves is that Mary Magdalene anointed Yeshua twice. Not because she was the repentant whore at the Pharisee' house.

    The Repentant Woman, Mary of Bethany, and Mary Magdalene: One Figure?

    All the examples of 7's I gave are positives. You gave one two 7's that were negative. It like proclaiming Yeshua was a sinner when He broke the Mosaic Law for picking food out of a field on the Sabbath.

    By the time John wrote this, it was all past tense.

    The Repentant Woman, Mary of Bethany, and Mary Magdalene: One Figure?

    Nothing in the scriptures rules out Mary Magdalene as President of the United States. But more importantly it is what the scriptures say. She is more likely she identified as the Queen of the South than a repentant whore.

    The Repentant Woman, Mary of Bethany, and Mary Magdalene: One Figure?

    This actually brings up some debates, not to say the least, the muddle of the Marys. Some believe that all the women that anointed Yeshua are the same person. I have even read that some scholars think that Mary Magdaline and Mary of Bethony and the repentant sinful woman are all the same...

    The Repentant Woman, Mary of Bethany, and Mary Magdalene: One Figure?

    Nope In the Bible, the number 7 symbolizes completion, perfection, and divine order, appearing repeatedly to convey spiritual fullness and God’s plan. Symbolism of Completion and Perfection The number 7 is closely associated with completion and perfection in biblical texts. This originates from...

    The Repentant Woman, Mary of Bethany, and Mary Magdalene: One Figure?

    If the scripture said--->It was the Mary who anointed the Lord with ointment, and wiped His feet with her hair at the Pharisees' house.... But it does not say "at the Pharisees' house. All we have done here is establish that Mary of Bethany anointed Yeshua more than once. Details, details. Was...

    If he used the number 7 to describe a person's spiritual condition, he is saying their condition is Divine.

    I don't refer to any other hair whipping event because there are none.

    You are repeating yourself. In no way identifies a previous hair-wiping event by the same person. Just two separate stories that involves hair wiping.

    Spirits...demons 7....Do they only travel in 7's. Only possesses in 7's. It is just an example.

    The Repentant Woman, Mary of Bethany, and Mary Magdalene: One Figure?

    Just because tens of thousands of Jews were crucified does not mean they all deserved it and their crucifixions do not mean the same thing as Yeshua's crucifixion. Nothing erases anything, each are separate and each has a meaning within the details given. You asked me to “find it in Luke,”...

    No we do not know the details, just that Yeshua cast them out.

    The Repentant Woman, Mary of Bethany, and Mary Magdalene: One Figure?

    Absolutely not. Two indications of a women wiping Yeshua's feet. That is all it is. Women anointing men is not a common practice. So no reason to expect several examples. Still the Apostles did not point out that Mary of Bethany had no authority to anoint Yeshua. So maybe they knew she had the...

    The Repentant Woman, Mary of Bethany, and Mary Magdalene: One Figure?

    I agree that it can happen. And see the detail. But this detail is not described for Mary Magdalene. No specific sins or general sinful life shown for Mary Magdalene. What she did to get 7 demons, how she got 7 demons, and what were the effects of the 7 demons. All blanks.....Theologians do not...

    The Repentant Woman, Mary of Bethany, and Mary Magdalene: One Figure?

    I all ready responded to what demon possession can mean in the time period. Hair wiping occurred in both stories, one with tears and one with oil. Not the same people, not the same place, not the same purpose. No biblical connection between the two stories.

    The Repentant Woman, Mary of Bethany, and Mary Magdalene: One Figure?

    Well find in Luke where her demons meant total spiritual ruin. And this is what I run into a lot with people that have false beliefs.....They want to put words in the mouth of the writers. Write your own Bible, the Jehovah's Witnesses did.....then the sky is the limit. Christianity is not...

    The Repentant Woman, Mary of Bethany, and Mary Magdalene: One Figure?

    Unless you talked to Luke you do not know what he was thinking. You have to go with what he wrote and did not write. Look at the other examples of demon possession in the scriptures, are they more detailed? The understanding that demon possession is sometimes actually a disease is a time period...
