You make baseless claims then try to put the burden of proof on your opponent. That may work with others but not here, my friend. I refuted your interpretation of Abraham's encounter being a dream or vision and your interpretation of Num 12:6. I don't expect you to accept it, but perhaps some of...
1 It's not my problem you got in over your head with discussions. You are the one claiming Abraham's encounter with the three men was a vision or dream, when Gen 18 reflects no such thing. The burden of proof is on you, my brother.
2 ?????
3 Another baseless claim? Bad habits die hard :)
1 I quoted the whole chapter (Gen 18). Read the chapter. Nowhere does it state he was dreaming or experiencing a vision. You are assuming he did, therefore adding that important detail to the text. Preparing a calf itself is reason enough to eliminate any dream or vision.
2 Have you not read...
So you are Ben Masada. Why not just keep your old identity? The Talmud is nothing more than a great commentary absent of canonical value to followers of Christ. The Tanach is my authority. YHVH did appear to Abraham in visions (Gen 15:1), But he also interacted with His representatives outside...
1 I'm afraid you are. Numbers 12:6 states, "If there be there a prophet among you (Israel)". Abraham was not an Israelite. If God meant "all" prophets, past, present, and future, Israelite or non-Israelite, He would have said, "If there be 'any' prophet...", like He inspired the Psalmist to...
1 Gen 18:1 states Abraham sat (yashab) under the tent door . You are "assuming" he was in a some sort of sleep state. Nothing in Gen 18 states Abraham was dreaming (khalome) or that this was a vision (machazeh/mareh). Three messengers, representing YHVH, literally appeared to Abraham. We...
Not only do you read out of context, but youve added contradiction to your interpretive repertoire . How can one not literally see anything in a vision??
Repeating passages that I've demonstrated you have taken out of context or misinterpreted does not help your doctrine. But hey, if you are reading only half the book, chapter, or thought, I can see how that can happen.
Jerusalem doesn't always mean Judah. Jerusalem is a city, Judah is not. Neither is Jerusalem a nation (goy), as is Israel. Once again, you are performing logical somersaults in order to justify your no resurrection belief.
Your conclusion further proves my point on your questionable interpretive and observation skills. I said the word of God never originates (has its beginning) from a human. It always originates from God.
Easier? You just made your interpretation even more difficult to accept. The word of the Lord "originates" from God Himself. It never originates from a human(s), which is what you are suggesting.
Most definitely not. Your interpretation requires leaps of logic not supported by the text. Zion...
Once again reading Psalms 78:67-70 out of context. Look at vs 71. It clearly refers to 1 Samuel 16:11-13, when David was chosen as king over Judah and later over all of Israel (2 Samuel 5:4-5). This is confirmed when Psalms 78 is read in its contextual enumeration.
When Ezekiel 37 was...
