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

    I can understand that sticking with the scriptures does not work for you.....because you come up with your own story. Again hair wiping is not a patented method or a limitation of how many times they can do it or how many women can do it. Sticking with the scriptures means you do not add to them...

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

    Yes, seven demons. Not all demon possessions are the same, not even if they are the same number. We have no details of how those details on how those seven demons affected her. And I am not sure if the demons were spiritual, physical, or mental. And no description is given, means just that...

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

    Ya I do not like repeating myself. I keep repeating because you keep going over the same thing. I have addressed all of your points. You might not like my answers, but I have addressed them. So unless you have something new, it is time for you to give it a rest. As a Theologian I do not defend...

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

    I understand the scriptures. Cast out seven demons.....but no description of the effects of the demons. Category? No description.

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

    No matter how you cut it, from end to end the Bible is an abbreviated account of the characters and events. So how many times was Yeshua anointed by women? Does the Bible say it gives a total number. Biblical Accounts of Mary’s Anointing The most widely recognized account of Mary anointing...

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

    I have already addressed this. The only thing that John identified is that Mary anointed Yeshua more that once. No specific event given.

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

    What if there were eight demons? I can call it hypothetical or an explanation of what can happen. But Yeshua is not describing an actual event so....hypothetical vs. actual. And Luke is not using Yeshua's explanation, we do not know the details of event concerning Mary and her demons. I can't...

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

    Do you see the phrase "total collapse" in this verse? The scriptures according Moonwood? Then it goes and takes along seven other spirits more evil than itself, and they go in and live there; and the last state of that man becomes worse than the first.

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

    Physiatrist visits are just an example, but I am sure they had PMS and menstrual cramps back then.. Find the phrase "complete spiritual ruin" in the scriptures. We do not know that Mary Magdaline was in "compete spiritual ruin" it could have been physical. If you wrote your own Bible, you would...

    Yes He is, but not an event. Are all demon possessions the same?

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

    Sure he knew how to identify some one.....he could do it by indentifing her name. It is like prosecuting someone in court without a description or a name. Some one did it! Prosecute "someone"

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

    Sure and how many times did she anoint Yeshua and he does not refference the event in Luke 7.

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

    Again you are mixing a hypothetical explanation with an actual event that did not have those descriptions associated with it. I am not saying that demon possession is not bad. I am not saying that Yeshua did not cast out 7 demons from Mary Magdaline. I am saying we do not know the details of...

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

    It like saying it all happened to one person and giving it a name.

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

    Not hypothetical? Show the event where it happened like that. Details details details

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

    Again, forming religious beliefs on what is not said. Anointing with hair is not a patented process to one woman.

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

    Oh my gosh. Why not just right your own Bible about what the scriptures do not say? Just think of it, the sky is the limit.
  18. Grailhunter

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

    True in a hypothetical case, not specific. The examples I gave were actual events.

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

    What it does not say is that----It was Mary who anointed the Lord with ointment and wiped his feet with her hair at the Pharisee' house. Forming beliefs on what is not said is a bad way to understand the scriptures. You can come up with your own beliefs but it is not accurate or scriptural.
