Anyhow here are a couple other possible "As it is written" scriptures added in bracketed parenthesis between the end of vs 38 and beginning of verse 39 in the ONMB (a Jewish Messianic heart translation). Perhaps, [staff edit] it is aptly relevant to verses 38 and 39 (Capitalization vs non-capitalizaton does make a difference). There isn't a translation that capitalizes *his in verse 38.
38. The one who believes in Me, just as the scriptures said, "rivers of living water
will flow out from *his inner being" (Proverbs 18:4, Isaiah 58:11).
39. And He said this about the Spirit, which those who believed in Him were about
to take: for the Spirit was not yet given, because Y'shua was not yet glorified.
A question for you (40 years of theological expertise). Is there any reference in the Gospel of John or the other Gospels that reference Yeshua attended Shavuot? Have wondered why verse 37-39 wasn't during Shavuot instead of the Feast of Tabernacles. Is it also your understanding that Shavuot is one of the 3 appointed times (Moeds) when all Hebrew/Jewish males are to travel to Jerusalem to celebrate the Feasts of Passover, Shavuot and Tabernacles? Do you know if that was the command/law for all males to be in Jerusalem for these 3 Feasts (Moedim) since the time of Solomon and the First Temple?
[Staff edit].
I have already indicated that I am not running round and round in circles with the debate re vs 39. Neither did I write the Christian Testament - the text under debate is where it is in the book attributed to John. I am not interested in branching out into other areas of debate on this thread. Maybe you should start other threads in relation to those questions.
