[sleepingdog]

The Assyrian Captivity,what does it mean to Christians?
Where are the captives?
Is it important?
Is it an issue Christians should discuss or something that is forgotten?

Better yet, what does it mean to non Christians?

Question?

I posted these before

These two accounts (you can go back and read them)


Mic 5:2 But thou, Bethlehem Ephratah, though thou be little among the thousands of Judah, yet out of thee shall he come forth unto me (Christ) that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth have been from of old, from everlasting. (quoted in Mat 2:6 also )

Its the next verse...

Mic 5:5 And this man (Christ) shall be the peace, (((((when)))) the Assyrian shall come into our land: and when he shall tread in our palaces, then shall we raise against him seven shepherds, and eight principal men.

Right after the quote In Isaiah 7:14 of the virgin with child a sign given To the house of David (of Christ) And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judaea, unto the city of David, which is called Bethlehem; (because he was of the house and lineage of David) Mary gave birth to Christ (which draws in the above Mic 5:2 quoted in Mat 2:6)

But what I was looking at this specifically...


Isaiah 7:16-17 For before the child shall know to refuse the evil, and choose the good, the land that thou abhorrest shall be forsaken of both her kings. The LORD shall bring upon thee, and upon thy people, and upon thy father's house, days that have not come, from the day that Ephraim departed from Judah; even the king of Assyria.

So these, separate yet meet together both mentioning either Assyria or the King of Assyria at the same place it makes mention of Christ both of which meets in the gospels.

Thats what I want to know

I don't know, maybe you ought to check his geographical genealogies?

I get it, you answer a question with another question, and you go round,and round,and round, and round. Let me off this crazy ride.
