    Jesus claimed He came to fulfill the Law, Did He?

    So the greater point is that I should not have posted what I did, and instead, I should have broken out into a discourse on my own understanding of the Torah? That would not have had anything to do with the post I quoted and was responding to. As for my understanding of the Torah it comes from...

    Jesus claimed He came to fulfill the Law, Did He?

    That's a serious misunderstanding of this word, (πληρόω), and its usage in the scripture. In fact Mat 5:17 is even mentioned at the bottom of the Thayer's entry for πληρόω below, and it does not mean what you say it does even in that context, but you would need to read the whole entry and see...

    Jesus claimed He came to fulfill the Law, Did He?

    Here is just one of the many things fulfilled in the Master which was prophesied of him in the Torah. Deuteronomy 18:15-19 KJV 15 The LORD thy God will raise up unto thee a Prophet from the midst of thee, of thy brethren, like unto me; unto him ye shall hearken; 16 According to all that thou...

    The relationship between the Ten Commandments, the Sabbath, and the New Covenant

    No, the Apostles do not clearly state that in the decree, and that is because the passage is disputed. Acts 15:24 KJV (Textus Receptus) 24 Forasmuch as we have heard, that certain which went out from us have troubled you with words, subverting your souls, saying, Ye must be circumcised, and...

    The relationship between the Ten Commandments, the Sabbath, and the New Covenant

    According to the scripture even stealing is taking the name of YHWH Elohim in vain, (for as you surely already know, a name is much more than a simple spelling in the scripture/Hebrew mindset). Proverbs 30:8-9 KJV 8 Remove far from me vanity and lies: give me neither poverty nor riches; feed me...

    The relationship between the Ten Commandments, the Sabbath, and the New Covenant

    Hi JFF, I am curious as to whether or not you have ever tried to reconcile the Ten as presented in Exodus 34 with the Ten which are found in Exodus 20 and Deuteronomy 5? There are some slight differences between Exo 20 and Deut 5 but the differences in Exo 34 compared to the other two passages...

    The relationship between the Ten Commandments, the Sabbath, and the New Covenant

    Way off topic now: you would need to actually prove your stated opinions about the writings of Paul, which I am not going to ask you to do because it would just cause more derailment. We've hashed out enough, especially since the OP has made it clear that this is not the topic, so I'll simply...

    The relationship between the Ten Commandments, the Sabbath, and the New Covenant

    All the Prophets and the Torah prophesied until Yohanne, (Mat 11:13). Therefore the true meanings and understandings of the Torah are expounded and filled up to the full, (Mat 5:17), in the testimonies of the Immerser and of the Master himself in the Gospel accounts. The Torah was not even...

    The relationship between the Ten Commandments, the Sabbath, and the New Covenant

    Still missing the point? A physical interpretation of circumcision in Gen 17 is proven to be incorrect by the scripture and the logos-logic therein. Those were not my words but the words of Mosheh and Paul speaking by the Spirit of the Most High. They are neither a "starman (or strawman)...

    The relationship between the Ten Commandments, the Sabbath, and the New Covenant

    No, your view of Gen 17 is only clear to the natural mind, which is why the Pharisees, Saddusees, and Scribes interpreted it the same way you do. The so called "flesh requirement", (to quote your words), may apply equally to both the male private member and the heart: both are flesh, and...

    The relationship between the Ten Commandments, the Sabbath, and the New Covenant

    Deuteronomy 10:12-16 KJV 12 And now, Israel, what doth the LORD thy God require of thee, but to fear the LORD thy God, to walk in all his ways, and to love him, and to serve the LORD thy God with all thy heart and with all thy soul, 13 To keep the commandments of the LORD, and his statutes...

    The Strong's Deception

    Yeah, it does not appear that hannuka with the ayil-alef was originally only an Aramaic spelling as they claim. There are also a couple instances in the older Aramaic Henok texts that did not have the waw in his name, and that's likely because the nun originally carried the "U" vowel with it...

    The seventh day Sabbath was "made for mankind"

    I fully believe that what I spoke about is actually taught in the Torah. The first set of tablets were a copy of the spoken Rhema which Elohim spoke in the ears of all the people, (Rhema can be both spoken and written). The second set of tablets in Exo 34 are Logos, which is reason and...

    The seventh day Sabbath was "made for mankind"

    What if the fifth commandment means both? (as I have argued before around these parts). In other words what if it means both to honor your physical parents, your father and mother, but also includes honoring your spiritual parent(s), your heavenly Father and your heavenly Mother, (Yerushalem of...

    "Unless Your Righteousness Surpasses...."

    The problem was then as it always is: natural minded interpretations of spiritual things from the spiritual and holy Word of the Most High. We know that His Torah-Instruction is spiritual, and that the natural-physical minded interpretations of it are to choose death, and that Mosheh lays out...

    How do you interpret the 400 years for the revealing of the Messiah in 2 Esdras?

    The author of the text was a Kohen, (Priest), and fully understood both the civil and the sacred calendar days, and understood the meaning of the statement, That your days may be multiplied....as the days of the heavens upon the earth, (Deut 11:21). Moreover he is referring the observant reader...

    How New is the New Covenant?

    Incorrect, yet another bad guess, and in fact I have not actually been all that relevant since returning here in the last two or three years. I know what you are speaking about but the opposite side of the coin is that you apparently think the following is better...

    How New is the New Covenant?

    It's right there in the Torah: a man's wife is his nakedness, and I quoted the passage. Moreover you never even offered your own explanation for the passage and rather entirely avoided it because you apparently have no answer for what those passages say and teach. If your paradigm forbids you...

    How New is the New Covenant?

    (staff edit) Just how Jewish Jesus was? And then to prove it you quote a Jewish historian whose first words in the quote state that "He was born of a Jewish mother of Galilee"? You yourself sound a little unsure of your own "Jewishness" seeing that you have already said that your mother is a...

    How New is the New Covenant?

    (staff edit) I am not a Gentile and I do not know anyone by the name Robert Morris, pastor or not, but I do fully understand your need to use character assassination against people who do not agree with your traditions of men. Moreover the text from which you quoted, the so-called Damascus...
