The Foremost Precept

[HARK!]

(CLV) Mk 12:28
And, approaching, one of the scribes, hearing them discussing, having perceived that He answered them ideally, inquires of Him, "What is the foremost precept of all?"

(CLV) Mk 12:29
Jesus answered him that "The foremost precept of all is: Hear, Israel! the Lord our God is one Lord.

(CLV) Mk 12:30
And, You shall be loving the Lord your God out of your whole heart, and out of your whole soul, and out of your whole comprehension, and out of your whole strength. This is the foremost precept.

So who is Yahshua's (Jesus') God? Does he have a name?

Yahshua was quoting the Shema.

(CLV) Dt 6:4
Hear, Israel! Yahweh is our Elohim; Yahweh the only One.

(CLV) Dt 6:5
So you will love Yahweh your Elohim with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your intensity.

(CLV) Dt 6:6
These words which I am instructing you today will come to be in your heart.

Yahweh is Yahshua's Elohim.

Glory to Yahweh!

It wasn't my idea. This is where one of the Moderators told me to post it.

No, it's actually about the Shema; but I'm always up for glorifying my Father's name.

Exodus 3

15 God, furthermore, said to Moses, "Thus you shall say to the sons of Israel, ' YHWH, the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, has sent me to you.' This is My name FOREVER, and this is My memorial-name to all generations.-

Thanks for linking. I at least know the context now. Plus, the moderation directing them here makes sense under the current rule configuration.

Ephesians 6:
5 Slaves, obey your earthly masters with deep respect and fear. Serve them sincerely as you would serve Christ.

Exodus 21:
7 When a man sells his daughter as a slave, she will not be freed at the end of six years as the men are. If she does not please the man who bought her, he may allow her to to be bought back again.

1 Samuel 15:
3 Do not spare him, but kill men and women, children and infants, oxen and sheep, camels and asses.


Did I do it right?

 

[Neal of Zebulun]

Exodus 21:

2 If thou buy an Hebrew servant, six years he shall serve: and in the seventh he shall go out free for nothing.​

3 If he came in by himself, he shall go out by himself: if he were married, then his wife shall go out with him.​

4 If his master have given him a wife, and she have born him sons or daughters; the wife and her children shall be her master's, and he shall go out by himself.​

5 And if the servant shall plainly say, I love my master, my wife, and my children; I will not go out free:​

6 Then his master shall bring him unto the judges; he shall also bring him to the door, or unto the door post; and his master shall bore his ear through with an aul; and he shall serve him for ever.​

7 And if a man sell his daughter to be a maidservant, she shall not go out as the menservants do.​

8 If she please not her master, who hath betrothed her to himself, then shall he let her be redeemed: to sell her unto a strange nation he shall have no power, seeing he hath dealt deceitfully with her.​

9 And if he have betrothed her unto his son, he shall deal with her after the manner of daughters.​

10 If he take him another wife; her food, her raiment, and her duty of marriage, shall he not diminish.​

11 And if he do not these three unto her, then shall she go out free without money.​

Wait.

These slaves had rights?

 

[awitch]

Wait.

Wait.

God endorsed the buying and selling of slaves as if these rights made slavery acceptable?

 

[Neal of Zebulun]

Wait.

Wait.

You mean having rights is slavery?

Well. I guess even a slave to sin like yourself has the right to die.

Romans 6:

23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Yahushua Christ our Lord.​

It would be well for you if you stopped trying to blame Yahweh and looked in the mirror.

I can't blame something that I don't believe in.
I thought we were just randomly posting out of context passages of scripture.

 

[Neal of Zebulun]

You wouldn't try to fault Him concerning the subject of slavery either.

But as it is, you're either a slave to sin or a servant of righteousness.

It's just the way it is.

 

[awitch]

If I was convinced that scripture was an accurate depiction of reality, then yes, I would fault god for condoning slavery.

But as it is, you're either a slave to sin or a servant of righteousness.

It's just the way it is.

I disagree and that's OK.

 

[Zoness]

As far as I am concerned slavery isn't okay and no religious text can convince me otherwise. I'm glad modern society has moved beyond it though it still exists in parts of the world.
