"I discussed these texts and many many others in my book The Jewish Targums and John's Logos Theology. Targum Neofiti is also of relevance as it also calls Adam "the son of man." If such usage dates to the first century, it would have given hearers a clue that Jesus calling himself "the Son of man" w..."

"We can compare Nabal with the rich man in the parable which Jesus told in Luke 12:15-21."

"There's a big difference here. The Septuagint definitely thinks it's fixing the original."

"It's interesting to see all the places where this heavenly book shows up."

"Can these be referenced to the sign of Jonah three days in the belly of the whale and Jesus' three days in the heart of the earth?"

"Maybe they were referring to people that didn’t follow their particular religion? Everyone is a son/daughter of god, neither holy or evil, but live a life without one overcoming the other & find an inner peace of harmonious duality … is that not the reason they both exist in us ... that is what inne..."

"You cite Targum Jer 51:38, but the English text given is not that (I think?), and the link is for a Hebrew-only page for Targum Jer 51:4."

"The elders and the 4 beasts are around the throne of God not in it. The same can be said of the great multitude in chapter 7 of Revelation. Looking at it this way we can get a better idea of who these people are"

"Zephaniah 3:17 states: 'The word of the LORD came unto Zephaniah: "The Lord your God is in your midst, a mighty one who will save; he will rejoice over you with gladness; he will quiet you by his love; he will exult over you with loud singing.' The verse is propounded nicely in this article.

"How are you dating the Masoretic text older than the Septuagint we don’t have the paleo Hebrew the original scriptures were written in. Why do you keep referring to modern Hebrew as the original text when the Septuagint is closer to the original Hebrew text you are lying"

"Today in my daily reading Psalm 68 came up again, and it stirred up the same frustration I’ve always had. I’ve always wondered, what in the world is Paul getting at in Eph 4:8, and how is he using Psalm 68:18? When you look at the Hebrew and the LXX it reads “received gifts,” not “gave.” That always..."

"The Masoretic text is much newer than 5th century B.C we don’t have original paleo Hebrew manuscripts the Jews rewrote their books in a new alphabet the Septuagint is the oldest version of the Old Testament books we have that’s why it’s quoted more in the New Testament it’s what they were reading no..."

"I think we need to keep in mind the author of the Bible. Then we move from the author to the writer (Moses) and then from the writer to the purpose or context.
The Author cannot change neither does His purposes nor context no matter who He chooses to write it through.
Their purpose is to alwa..."

"Why did the New English translation of the Septuagint change it back to “sons of god” instead of “angels of god”?"

"Something happened in 2013. Which led me to the book of Enoch. I believe many truth seekers would be interested to know the events which are leading all of us to today, which soon would become the end of this epoch. Jesus is Enoch. He is the only begotten son, who went up into heaven and absorbed in..."
