    Was Noah's flood global?

    The word can be taken that way (like in the land of Goshen) but it can also/alternatively be taken to mean the Earth as in Genesis 1:1. I looked up the Septuagint and it has Ge/Gen/Ges (Gaea/Gaia) which is also the Earth. I was going to look up Josephus too but then I realized they didn't know...

    Was Noah's flood global?

    From my reading of Genesis 6-8 it is clear tht the Flood was global not just local/regional part/section of the earth. The word used for earth eretz is the same word in Genesis 1:1. 6:1 It happened, when men began to multiply on the surface of the ground (adamah), and daughters were born to...

    Was Noah's flood global?

    If the Flood was only one section of the earth then how come God didn't just command Noah to move to another section instead of building a boat. And what point would be the rainbow promise never to flood the whole earth again if it was only one section (since it would mean God lied since there...

    Peter the Rock?

    I asked a Messianic and below is what he said (underlinings mine) : "First off, we need to clear up this idea of the”church” just supernaturally springing up after Yeshua’s ascension. The “church,” meaning the Catholic Church did not even begin to form until the mid 4th century. There was an...

    Peter the Rock?

    I'm afraid I have to disagree that Peter is the rock and not Jesus/Christ. The following NT verses surely support the view that Jesus is the rock that the church is built on. Matthew 7:24 "Everyone therefore who hears these words of mine, and does them, I will liken him to a wise man, who built...

    Peter the Rock?

    When we read the Matthew 16 verses in the original Greek here Matthew 16 Interlinear Bible we see that Peter is Petros but the rock the church is built on is Petra, so I can't see that Peter is the rock the church is built on. There is no evidence in the Bible that Peter was bishop of the...

    How the Geological Column Affirms The Genesis Account

    Good point about missing layers in places (since they supposedly took so long to deposit). But I think creationists err in lumping everything into one great Flood. I think there were some other catastrophes during world history. I agree that the Cretaceous seems to match the Flood. "No seasons"...

    Hi from New Zealand

    Greetings from Wellington. I agree its been freezing here in NZ this winter. (Its worse here further south, and where I am is a valley which is even colder as the clouds keep sitting over here day after day. I envy UK having a "heat wave" lately.) I've seen one or two of your papers on academia.

    Elijah and JTB

    There are 2 possibile explanations: 1. It could be that the "Elijah" verse has two different layers of meaning and that there will also be an Elijah before the second coming. (Elijah vs Jezebel in OT could also match that "Babylon"/"Jezebel" is still around at time of 2 Witnesses?) This would...

    The Two Witnesses Are Not Two Men

    Marty I don't think the two witnesses can be the law and the prophets because they seem to be said to be two persons are are killed and later resurrected. But Moses and Elijah can represent the Law and the Prophets respectively. Not that I am saying they definitely will be those two, you might...

    The Two Witnesses Are Not Two Men

    Some interesting stuff in the OP's website, but like the others here I don't agree about the 2 witnesses. "the two witnesses are her youtube channel and her website". This does not agree with my impression of what i read in Revelation and Zechariah where they clearly appear to be two persons...

    Garden of Gethsemane & King's Garden

    Is Gethsemane of Jesus' passion the King's Gardens? Compare these two descriptions: kepos/kipos "garden" of Gethsemane/Gat-shmanim/Gat-shenim/Gat-semena/Gad-smane "oil/fat press", chorion/xorion "place/estate" (across brook/valley of Kidron, in vicinity of Mt of Olives/Olivet)...

    Evidence Part 1--History

    LFG: I don't have alot of time but I have already posted alot of articles and catalogue of them online. Some of my articles are here: Sean Bambrough - Academia.edu Faith is primary but it is not without evidence or reason. Historical evidence is one evidence reason but there are also other...

    Revelations?

    Although the situation here is still hell bad and no signs yet of God answering to help make it not so bad (and me still being trapped not able to fix it myself as every option is blocked by regime/system/elite & others like neighbours & services/tradespeople), I have made some possible biblical...

    Why Papias cannot be trusted

    There was certainly a gospel of Jesus according to Matthew in Hebrew because there is a Talmud tract titled exact same words and Matthew 1:1. Matthew: Sepher toledot Yeshua HaMessiah ... Talmud: Sefer toldot Yeshu HaNotsri ...

    Why Papias cannot be trusted

    I've never seen any other attributions for the authorship of the 4 gospels? John is certainly in agreement with the 3 letters and Revelation to assume/presume same authorship. And we have fragments dating back to almost John's old age death date. I assume the Athanasian creed, Nicaea council...

    Questions; Jesus, Peter, and the keys

    It doesn't matter because the problem is not whether Peter is the rock or leader of apostles or has the keys/authority. No one disputes Peter was leader of the apostles (though James was leader of the community). No is there dispute that Babylon in Peter's letter was probably Rome. But there is...

    4 Horsemen of Revelation Part 4

    Having looked at the first 3 horsemen of Revelation 6 we now look at the last, 4th, "Pale" Horseman. Revelation 6: "And when he opened the seal (the) 4th I heard (the) voice of the 4th living creature saying Come And I looked and behold a horse chloros ("pale") and the (one) sitting on it (the)...

    4 Horsemen of Revelation Part 3

    The 1st, White Horse(man) of Revelation 6 is often supposed to be "conquest", and/or to be the "Antichrist", and the bow he has is often supposed to be "a covenant with Israel confirming its rights to the land of Israel/Palestine". However we are not so certain of this for various reasons...

    Amazing parallel between Daniel and Jesus

    This might have already been seen but a day ago I saw an amazing parallel between Daniel in the Lion's Den story and the death, burial & resurrection of Yeshua/Jesus. To try to show the similarities we have presented this by quoting each verse and putting the comments on similarities in brackets...
