The Assyrian Church of the East which is at least as old as the Roman catholic Church has always used an Aramaic version of the New Testament. There is nothing new about this, it is just that for 1000 years their church has been small in number. The Church of the East calims that the Aramaic...

What was found in hebrew among the dead sea scrolls? Anything to show Hebrew was commonly used? How did the Hebrew stuff compare to the aramaic?

Thank you. :wave: Perhaps i should have said being against natural selection is like being against watermelons:mad: , or being against footpaths. :mad:

Hmm...nothing :) having something against natural selection would be like having something against gravity No I understand what natural selection is. Yes I understand the theory, I just thought if you could demonstrate that NS is necessary from scientific literature it would settle the...

Sorry I may have misunderstood your reply. When you said, I thought you were meaning that some animal hybrids do produce self -sustaining populations, and so i wondered what these might be. So it may even be that all animal hyrids do not produce a self sustaining population? Thanks...

Perhaps can you demonstrate from scientific literature that natural selection is necessary for speciation this would settle things? Thank you

Thanks for your reply. :wave: Which animal hybrids do produce a self-sustaining population?

Would they, however, be able to produce a "self sustaining" population? Thanks

What is the relationship between the Church Of The East and Eastern Orthodox Churches?

Hi kingdom come. I was taught that these verses refer to satan but I have since changed my view. It seems to be talking of an earthly king (the king of babylon?). IIRC the hebrew refers to either the planet venus or the assyrian or babylonian god of the dawn. I would have to go and check up...

Hi there :wave: I am not YE howevr I may be able to help with the traditional view. The traditional view is that Adam was neither immortal nor mortal. He could die but he need not die. This article, The Original Immortals explains it.

Hi I am not YEC but the traditional view (Augustine , Luther etc) has been that animals were always created mortal. Only man was created with the possibilty of not dying. The idea that animals did not die before the fall of man is a new idea not an old one.

Hi again Luscapa. I have only presented one theory here so am not sure how I could have modified anything. Are you confusing me with another poster? all the best.....judge

When translating the aramaic new testament into english Aramaic speakers such as Victor Alexander tell us that at times certain phrases in Aramaic are not to be taken literally, but rather are idiomatic constructions. An example would be Matthew 8:21 Another disciple said to him, "Lord...

Small nitpick, although the main section of forums is philosophy the specific subforum linked to is evolution/creation. and the point is that even scientists even biologists such as Dr Caporale whoi is mentioned in the discussion do not limit themselves to the definition of random you provided.

Thanks for the reply Luscapa. I think you have ststed the commonly accepted meaning of random WRT mutations very well here, but even amongst "evilutionists" there seems to be no full consensus. see here... http://www.iidb.org/vbb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=69103 And even so the definition you...

Both Marys husband and father were named Joseph . Thus Matthews geneology is that of Mary not Joseph. http://www.peshitta.org/bethgazza/Gabra.htm The aramaic word for father was mistranslated as husband.

Here is start on the aramaic NT. http://www.peshitta.org/initial/peshitta.html

If the story of the fall is an allegory then it makes no sense. Only if man was not mortal and free from sin could he trully fall. If man evolved it makes no sense because make has risen instead.
