    Isaiah 60:16.

    If you sent these academicians in and had them listen to the oracle at Delphi for a few months, after which they wrote about her pronouncements, it would probably be about as valueless as what they write about Isaiah. And this is notwithstanding the fact that what the oracle at Delphi gives to...

    Isaiah 60:16.

    Isaiah 60:16 Book of Isaiah " Bernhard Duhm originated the view, held as a consensus through most of the 20th century, that the book comprises three separate collections of oracles:[4][5] Proto-Isaiah (chapters 1–39), containing the words of the 8th-century BCE prophet Isaiah; Deutero-Isaiah...

    Isaiah 60:16.

    The immense strangeness that an actual branch נצר is worn in the bosom of those who reckon Jesus to be this messianic sprout is amplified by the fact that Judaism calls him and his followers the "Nazarene" (nazarim נצרים in Hebrew). In the Talmud, those who wear this bosom-borne ornament as the...

    Isaiah 60:16.

    Thou hast given a banner נס to them that fear thee that their fear might be on display by means of the ornament קשט. Psalms 60:4 (60:6 in the Tanakh). The interpretation/translation above, justified by Rabbi Hirsch, is a far cry from the interpretation/translation found in the Masoretic Text...

    The Curse of the Law.

    I've been thinking about what I posted earlier about reading that the city gate order being in an order of the mothers. Maybe there is a connection to what you said in the other thread about drinking from the breasts. It might be relevant that the city structure is based on the mothers. And...

    Isaiah 60:16.

    Isaiah says, "they shall bow down to thee with their faces toward the earth and lick the dust of thy feet." He implies they do so because they know that he's the Lord; that is, Zion-personified is the Lord? Which is a serious problem for Judaism and Jewish exegesis? How can the Lord be manifest...

    The Curse of the Law.

    Regarding the hill: Consider the Bread (corn) and Oil and Wine as being three different things: And the earth shall hear the corn, and the wine, and the oil; and they shall hear Jezreel. Hosea 2:22 And wine that maketh glad the heart of man, and oil to make his face to shine, and bread which...

    The Curse of the Law.

    Is there anything from Moses and or Jesus/Yeshua- the truthful Israelite Messiah, in one's post, please, right? Regards

    The Curse of the Law.

    Fortuitously, this segues with another thread taking place conterminous with this one: Isaiah 60:16. The parallels are important since many commentaries relate Ezekiel 48:35 with Isaiah 60:14. The parallel between Isaiah 60:14 and Ezekiel 48:35 shows why the first step a serious exegete must...

    Isaiah 60:16.

    Isaiah implies that those who wear this bosom-borne shrine ---Zion-personified ---- will know that he's their Lord and Savior? The prophet implies, by the language he uses, that the statement that they'll know he's their Lord and Savior is part and parcel of the imagery he's employing? In verse...

    Isaiah 60:16.

    Thou shalt also suck the milk of the Gentiles, and suck the breast of kings: and they shall know that I the Lord am their Savior [moshiah]. Isaiah 60:16. Throughout Isaiah the prophet speaks of a particular shrine that becomes an ornament and sign of Zion-personified. In chapter 11 (verse 10)...

    Isaiah 60:16.

    Isaiah 49:15 implies that the mother of Zion-personified will forget Zion even though Zion-personified should be suckling at her breast. The "cries" (הומה or המה instead of "walls" חומה) ---v. 16---- are continually before the nursing Father who's forced to care for, or provide care for, the...

    Isaiah 60:16.

    Most, if not all the verses and chapters in Isaiah have multiple parallels within the prophesy itself, and with passages throughout the Law and the Tanakh, with special emphasis on the Psalms, which, the Psalms, appear to be foremost in Isaiah's mind as he writes. Isaiah is likely to have seen...

    Isaiah 60:16.

    I have long thought that it is the Second Isaiah who holds the key to our understanding of the Old Testament. So much is crammed into these chapters, so many layers are apparent, so many images fused and re-fused that the mind behind them must have been a religious genius. Margaret Barker, The...

    Isaiah 11:1.

    Another secret of the yod is that the tree of knowledge and the tree of life grow from the same root. One is the the quasi-original, visually first, sexualized, trunk, we should like to make, at least ritually (brit milah), a stump. We want to make the first trunk of the tree a stump only if we...

    Ontology, Meontology, Tautology.

    As a footnote to the last paragraph, the same Ibn Ezra, whose faithful exegesis brings out the truth lost in the traditional rendering of the MT and KJV, corrects another woeful epispasm pulled over the holy text of these messianic renderings. In the text noted above (Isaiah 25:6-11) we're...

    Ontology, Meontology, Tautology.

    The statement made by Ibn Ezra above segues into exegesis done here on Isaiah 49:18. Isaiah 49:18 could quite genuinely be considered the greatest epispasmic exegesis found throughout the entire Tanakh in that this one slip of the interpreter's wrist has covered up the Jewish understanding of...

    Salvation Was Already Established In the Old Testament

    I was a Christian for 14 years until I started running into theses kinds of BIG contradictions and problems within the bible itself. Be prepared to be mind blown. There are plenty of bible verses in the OT about how God is acknowledged by the Jewish people as the one who is their "salvation"...
