What do you think of Jeremiah 29:8-9?

[Jayhawker Soule]

Actually, Paul threw out some of the Talmud ... Paul stuck strictly to Tannakh when he changed from being Saul.

Actually, the Talmud is composed of the Mishnah and Gemara: the former dates to circa 200 CE and the latter to circa 500 CE - by which time Paul was long dead and unable to "throw out" anything. You might wish to learn something about the subject before deigning to inform others. It help one avoid looking thoughtlessly ignorant.

Parenthetically, Tanakh, sometimes rendered as TaNaKh, refers to the Torah, Nevi'im, and Ketuvim. It is typically spelled with a single 'n'.

Shalom.

Jeremiah 29:8-9 doesn't have anything next to numbers 2:6. What is the lucky number? 54,000. God chose buildings point east.

Oral Talmud?

This decline in the number of knowledgeable Jews seems to have been a decisive factor in Rabbi Judah the Prince's decision around the year 200 C.E. to record in writing the Oral Law.

The Oral Law -Talmud & Mishna

What do you think of Jeremiah 29:8-9?

Can't fault it.

All divination, all 'prophesy', is in the imagination of the speaker.

In all the bible there's not a single instance of a purported prophecy whose credibility stands up to inspection. And that's before we get to the obvious point that any real explanation of a prediction (falsification, retrofitting, chance &c) is many orders of magnitude more credible than any purported supernatural explanation. The examples in the Tanakh strongly point to 'prophecy' as a political tool to reinforce one's own argument by adjusting the past to fit.

Oral Talmud?

You try so hard. It's rather pathetic.

You try so hard. It's rather pathetic.

After all, Jesus quoted the Talmud that they follow when he said, "But he answered and said unto them, Why do ye also transgress the commandment of God by your tradition?".

Then, also, we have the "travel distance" for a Sabbath. "Then returned they unto Jerusalem from the mount called Olivet, which is from Jerusalem a sabbath day's journey." It's not like it is spelled out in that TaNaKh.

So, the substance of what I said is still good. (Although I thank you for the finer details)

Shalom.

After all, Jesus quoted the Talmud ...

No, he did not.

 

[Kenny]

No, he did not.

OK.

Then he quoted the Pharisees whose foundation was in the Talmud.??
