The evidence is what matters. The location that Jesus and the apostles lived would determine the language they spoke. Galilee was a Gentile province and the apostles would have spoken Greek and Aramaic. Jesus and the apostles were uneducated people. Use of Hebrew It seems the strong weight...

A very simple test for the validity of the Greek translation would be to test the Septuagint against the Dead Sea scrolls. The Dead Sea scrolls were written in Hebrew and would be the Hebrew text at the time. They were written within a century or two apart from each other. Do you have another...

If you read the New Testament then when you read an apostles quotation from the Old Testament. Your more than likely reading the Septuagint. You have been reading the same Septuagint as the Gospel authors. I doubt whether any of the apostles could read Hebrew except for Paul.

Here are some verses taken from the Septuagint the Hebrew Version follows. Matthew 3:3; Mark 1:3; John 1:23 / Isaiah 40:3 — make “His paths straight.” Hebrew — make “level in the desert a highway.” Matthew 9:13; 12:7 / Hosea 6:6 — I desire “mercy” and not sacrifice. Hebrew — I desire...

That occurs at the end of the Great Tribulation, that is not Pre-Tribulation nor Mid-Tribulation.

I have contemplated that variation in interpretation also.

I have some questions for you. Where do you place the antichrist and the false prophet in the order of events?

The Significance of the Septuagint The significance of the Septuagint translation can hardly be overestimated. Following the conquests of Alexander the Great (336-323 BC), Greek became the official language of Egypt, Syria and the eastern end of the Mediterranean Sea. The Septuagint translation...

Christian usage of the Septuagint. The Early Christian church used the Greek texts,[15] since Greek was a lingua franca of the eastern parts of the Roman Empire at the time and the language of the Greco-Roman Church, while Aramaic was the language of Syriac Christianity. The relationship...

What is the first resurrection? Revelation 20:5-6 The rest of the dead did not come to life until the thousand years were completed. This is the first resurrection.

Japan does not have a problem with illegal immigrants or immigration in general. They don't have an immigration scheme. Crime is extremely low and Japan is a very safe country to live. I think I'm turning Japanese I really think so.

Revelation 20:5 The rest of the dead did not come to life until the thousand years were completed. The rest of the dead are resurrected and their names are checked against the book of life. If their name is not listed in the book of life then down they go. Revelation 20:15 And if anyone’s...

I have yet to see anyone who understands the New Testament, no matter how old they are.

Revelation 20:13 And the sea gave up the dead who were in it, and Death and Hades gave up the dead who were in them; and they were judged, each one of them according to their deeds. The text of Revelation 20 has a first and second resurrection. The text clearly states those who are in the...

Eschatology for some reason is littered not with only interpretations of the scripture. There are many additions to the text of revelation also. For example, a seven year tribulation is not even mentioned in the text. There is a forty two month reign of the beast stated in the scripture.

I don't think that the book of Revelation could be read and understood by a child.

Hello DRobinson. There are requirements required to be a member of the first resurrection. Revelation 20:4-5 Then I saw thrones, and they sat on them, and judgment was given to them. And I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded because of their testimony of Jesus and because of the...

The missing week is not commonly referred to as the Great Tribulation. There is endless debate about the book of Daniel. I would not take a missing week from Daniel and apply it to a period after the destruction of the Temple and Jerusalem in AD 70. John said the antichrist rules for 42...

I quoted the scripture and you accuse me of error. You are following an interpretation that is contradicting the scripture, regarding the return of Jesus Christ.

Your drawing a long bow with Revelation 15:2
