    Yahweh Says to Adoni

    Do you think that’s why he chose the title that he did?

    Yahweh Says to Adoni

    I’m not an expert in the Hebrew language. I’ve had some formal training but, as I said and you’re saying now, it isn’t necessary to know how to read the biblical languages in order to understand what is written in scripture. It helps, but the technical experts who translate the Bible can get us...

    Yahweh Says to Adoni

    I do. I’ve yet to come across a trinitarian commentary which says about the Trinity what you said you believe about the Trinity. If such a commentary exists I would like to see it. Since you don’t spend much time reading them, maybe someone else who does and has come across your belief discussed...

    Yahweh Says to Adoni

    Have you noticed by title of the thread? Why do you think the trinitarian who started this thread called it “Yahweh Says to Adoni”?

    Yahweh Says to Adoni

    “He is the shy one,” one trinitarian scholar jokingly said to me.

    Yahweh Says to Adoni

    That’s become clear to me. It’s not necessary to know how to read Hebrew but it helps. We wouldn’t be having the conversation that we are if you could read Hebrew. Do you have access to a standard Hebrew Lexicon? Your Concordance won’t make the distinction; a Lexicon will. Greek and Hebrew...

    Yahweh Says to Adoni

    One YHWH and one lord in Psalm 110:1. There is only one YHWH. Why not three YHWH’s? And why does David not speak of three YHWH’s in Psalm 110:1?

    Yahweh Says to Adoni

    See the vowelled Hebrew text. The Hebrew word is adoni and it is properly rendered as “lord” in all 195 occurrences. YHWH is never described with the title adoni.

    I don’t know what the acronym stand for.

    Yahweh Says to Adoni

    There are two Lords in Psalm 110:1.

    Yahweh Says to Adoni

    I read and responded to it. The vowelled Hebrew text is adoni, not adonai.
  12. Matthias

    Yahweh Says to Adoni

    It’s not in vowelled Hebrew. Are you able to read unvowelled Hebrew? Hebrew language translators are. Adon is the root word. This is seen in both adonai and adoni.

    Yahweh Says to Adoni

    The one God is one Lord. The Messiah is a second Lord. The one God, the Lord God, is the Messiah’s God. The Messiah is “the Lord’s Messiah”. Do you want me to treat you like that?

    Yahweh Says to Adoni

    Okay. Thank you. You believe the Trinity is 1 self and 3 selfs. Would you happen to have access to any trinitarian commentaries which support your belief? I would like to read them, if you do.
  15. Matthias

    Yahweh Says to Adoni

    It is. Not because I say so or wish that it did. It is what is written in the Hebrew text. Once it’s established, which I leave for you to do, then we’re faced with the fact that it is a title which is never applied to YHWH in scripture. It’s always used in reference to men or angels. I...

    Yahweh Says to Adoni

    Let me make sure I’m understanding you correctly. You’re saying that you believe the Trinity is 1 self and 3 selfs?
  17. Matthias

    Yahweh Says to Adoni

    The first thing I noticed was that you capitalized the “L” when you wrote, “YHWH said to my Lord”. That’s the error that NASB acknowledged and agreed to correct. “Lord” is the standard English rendering of the Hebrew word adonai. The Hebrew word in Psalm 110:1 isn’t adonai. Anyone who can read...

    Yahweh Says to Adoni

    No. Psalm 110:1 is a bedrock verse for me. The unnamed “lord” in the prophetic oracle is adoni, not adonai. If you’re familiar with Hebrew then you know that a vowel point makes a huge difference. Even if you’re not familiar with Hebrew, you can see the difference in English translations where...

    Yahweh Says to Adoni

    Yes. Thanks for asking.

    Yahweh Says to Adoni

    Do whatever you think best. When I see and hear Jesus, I see and hear God in the flesh. The bottom line is having the mind of Christ. I’ve stated publicly that I’m always willing to reevaluate and reconsider what I believe. “No, I’m right you’re wrong” contributes nothing toward that end...
