Two Questions

[Poisonshady313]

I have a completely different couple of questions, if you don't mind?

Why would a new Temple need to be built on the site of the old one?

Why build a Temple without the Ark to place within it?

Ezekiel 40 told us all about the third temple... I couldn't imagine it being anywhere else...

And with all the other impressive stuff that's supposed to happen when the temple is built, the ark will be restored.

I read about the temples... maybe I can find that piece of info again... however
I am very much interested in the Hebrew names of G-d ...

G-d is the translation for Elohim but to prevent the diluted use in english it would be better translating it as "The Mighty One".
And then Lord is actually a title for Elohim, and it should be Yahweh.

The Bible loosing its powerful message due to translation...

I have two questions and i will be thankful if you can answer them for me

1. Does the Old Testament used by the Christian is the holy Torah? Well the thing is it is becoming too confusing. While my Christian friends say that, i have noticed in another thread that Lucifer story according to the Christians is different than the Jewish one. Therefore in this case, i deduced that 'Old Testament' used by the Christians are not the same as the Torah.
2. Do you believe God appeared to Moses (PBUH) as a burning bush? I mean according to the Torah, was that burning bush God Himself. Again i am asking this because i remember someone telling me that in Judaism God did not appear to any human, so i wanted to confirm.

Thank you in advance

1. The christian old testament contains the five books of the Torah but the entire OT is what would be called the Pentateuch. There are translational differences between the Jewish and the christian text. Some which do change the meaning of the text and some that do not.

2. If I'm not mistaken it was a manifestation of Hashem and not actually Hashem's form, which Judaism holds Hashem has no form. An example could be; is this post actually me?, or simply a manifestation of me?

The entire Old Testament is made up of "three" separate Hebrew writings. The Pentateuch, the first five books, the Ketuvim of songs and poetry, and the Nevi'im, the prophets.

The entire old testament thus would not be called the "Pentateuch." The "tanakh" is an acronym for the teachings (Torah), prophets (Nevi'im), and the writings (Ketuvim).

I did misspeak concerning the Pentateuch. I don't know why but I have always gotten the words Tanach and Pentateuch mixed up. Thanks for the correction.
