Spiritual blindness is not found in the Tanach. You are re-interpreting the blindness mentioned in this verse to be such. Contextually, it's talking about a lack of awareness towards one's social or economical predicament.They didn't make it up, Moses prophesied it:
Deuteronomy 28:28-29 Yahweh will strike you with madness, with blindness, and with astonishment of heart. (29) You will grope at noonday, as the blind gropes in darkness, and you shall not prosper in your ways. You will only be oppressed and robbed always, and there will be no one to save you.
Zechariah 12:4 In that day,” says Yahweh, “I will strike every horse with terror, and his rider with madness; and I will open my eyes on the house of Judah, and will strike every horse of the peoples with blindness.
Zech. is talking about hysteria.
People would have to be blind to take you seriously.Plus wasn't referring to only Judaism being blinded, personally can show the whole world is, as seriously people have to be blinded to not see the Gospel of John is blatantly made up.
No, He didn't miss anything. There was no chance that happened to Israel. The whole thing is a fabrication.So God creates everything, and yet missed that bit, that just happened by chance to Israel, and the Lord was on holiday that day... Seriously find that atheistic.
Your Christian text, not my Jewish one.Got plenty of reasons that people are confused to understand what is in the Tanakh, and calling them blind is what the text stated not me.
I am happy to declare that I there are certain possibilities that are impossible to be true and anyone who believes they could be is crazy.The idea you can not understand that was showing I'm willing to question everything; shows your own lack of comprehension at infinite perspectives.
Please stop using we. I do not recognize any relationship with you.We didn't need a prophet to speak for God in the past, God spoke to our people, until we murdered his messengers.
The Jewish people did need a prophet to speak to G-d in the past. There was one occasion where G-d spoke to the entire nation, and that was at Mt. Sinai. Before and after that, G-d only spoke to us through prophets.
We didn't "murder his messengers". There were two prophets that were killed on order of the king, if I recall correctly. There were a lot more than two prophets. And prophecy continued after these prophets were killed.
Of course I'm going to need you to explain each reference. How can you expect me to figure out your crazy interpretations on my own?I don't deal with only one verse, and was quoting from multiple passages in the chapter; sorry if you needed me to explain each reference stated:
They were standing in the Temple (verse 5). They simply bowed towards the Holy of Holies in the Sancturay where the Divine Presence rested. If G-d was physically there, there'd be no reason for Jahaziel to prophecy, G-d could have said it directly.'The people bowed before the Lord (2 Chronicles 20:18), in that they actually saw a physical presence, and then nations feared because the Lord fought with them (2 Chronicles 20:29)...'
This is the second time you are calling me an atheist. I do not think you understand what this word means, or like many other things we've seen, you've assigned it your own meaning.Again these are atheistic statements;
This remains your unproven claim. G-d doesn't need to be present to split the sea. G-d was not seen physically splitting the sea (nor can we understand how that would even look: do you think He put two humongous hands together, dipped them in the sea and pushed the waters to both sides? How tall would He need to be to be able to do that?).the Lord removed the Red Sea was physically seen doing so, and caused a physical event, not some wishful thinking or a Lord who isn't seen.
