They went to Bethlehem from the city of Nazareth to register [Read Luke 2:3-5] and “While they were there, the days were completed for her to give birth. And she gave birth to her firstborn son; and she wrapped Him in cloths, and laid Him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the...
This is what I wrote to Shad: “We are here to debate and not insult each other. If I’m wrong correct me, but that doesn’t mean you are right when you’re correcting me. We could trade insults all day long, but at the end of the day we can ask ourselves, did I learn something today?”
This guy and...
and this was my response to that: Oh yeah! That’s right; I forgot you’re just making a rhetorical speech, i.e., saying something the opposite of what your ego really wanted to say just like this one here,
You and David perhaps just want to elevate yourselves into something you guys are not.
Did...
Or should I tell you the whole story, GENIUS. You see what your pride doing to you, instead of learning something from it and stop justifying your IGNORANCE with more nonsense rhetoric, instead of looking for something that is not there and stop blaming me on something that you don’t understand...
If you are looking for a parameter that is not there then you should look deeper into why I asked, if you can explain those verses, right? People WERE arguing these two verses since the start of the 1st century.
Irenaeus [202 AD] concerning Isaiah 7:14: The Septuagint clearly wrote a virgin...
Right from the start the comparison is the length of the tail and none of the animals we know has a tail like a cedar in length. We start comparing the size of the tail of the Behemoth to a hippo or to an elephant. Our conclusion is neither elephants’ nor hippos’ matched the tail of the...
The place of birth has nothing to do with the tribal origin. Joseph and Mary were from the tribe of Judah but were residing in Galilee. This does not mean they do not belong to the tribe of Judah anymore.
You could be from Sicily or born in Sicily but if your parents came from another country...
Not as bad as you messed up your genealogy, I guess. Pretending you belong to a royal blood, [master race], when you are just like the others celebrating ignorance.
Very true and if they could only understand this verses
REV 21:1 Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth; for the first heaven and the first earth passed away, and there is no longer any sea.
REV 21:2 And I saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, made ready as a...
Is that your opinion or are you basing this argument from facts? They are not returning “to their places of birth for census”. Most Judeans were from the tribe of Judah. IOW, they don’t have to leave Judea if they belong to the tribe of Judah, right?
Only those who live in another city or were...
Here is the context of what we are discussing, GENIUS.
LK 2:2 This was the first census taken while Quirinius was governor of Syria.
LK 2:3 And everyone was on his way to register for the census, each to his own city.
LK 2:4 Joseph also went up from Galilee, from the city of Nazareth, to Judea...
So why people from Galilee traveled to Judah to register, even though they were born and raised in Galilee? “People do not travel to their places of birth for a census” but to the place of their tribal origin based on the context LK 2:3 And everyone was on his way to register for the census...
Maybe you don’t know, [how can that be possible for a GENIUS LIKE YOU], but when you discuss these specific verses the word “virgin” is the main point of the argument.
You could say, I don’t know, but since you are a GENIUS your pride prevents you from doing it. I can’t blame you GENIUS.
You are disappointing me GENIUS. I thought you knew everything. I thought you would translate the word “virgin” into another words in Greek and in Hebrews. Well, I think GNOSTIC has more on this than you. Really disappointed on you GENIUS. I may have to change your name SOON IF YOU DON’T COME UP...
Let me ask you since we are talking about NT and the Gospel of Matthew and since you are a self-proclaimed GENIIUS and GNOSTIC [who thinks he knows everything] maybe you guys can explain this.
MT 1:23 “BEHOLD, THE VIRGIN SHALL BE WITH CHILD AND SHALL BEAR A SON, AND THEY SHALL CALL HIS NAME...
