[QUOTE="Erik Nelson, post: 73152305, member: 400870"] same deal with the NT's and St. Paul's long lost letter to the Laodiceans due to persecutions, much has not survived, hopefully "just enough" has Scripture speaks for itself. Moses established a Priestly elite. His hand-picked apostles & followers continued his traditions, completing his writings with their own "finishing touches". Isaiah wrote much of the book named after him. Some of his pupils may have continued his work, ministry, and writing. No one denies the beauty of a Cathedral, just because it took 100 years and many generations to complete, nor do any belittle the steeples as emplaced by different hands from the foundation. One inspired work from start to finish... had it been otherwise, it wouldn't have been bothered to be finished. According to some, the authority of (granted to) Moses has continued, unbrokenly, down through history, through the Priests, Prophets & Messiah & Apostles to the Church through to present epoch. [B][/B] God knows all human languages, and can communicate fluently in them all, as God demonstrated at Pentecost (Acts 2:1-4) Presumably, God "thinks" in some Divine Super-Language... even Hebrew is a "down translation into mortal human earthling terms" [B][/B] Are you sure? It shows up on Bible-Gateway. Nevertheless, why not start with the "Greatest Common Factor", those books all agree are canonical... you could spend a lifetime just studying those yes, this & that person, cast aspersions of doubt, on that & this book... so begin with what is as yet untarnished with words of accusation... again, 'twould be possible to spend a human lifetime just studying those first [/QUOTE]
