  • 1 Enoch 76:1 / Revelation 7:1

    Melissa

    How is it that we are going back to when The Book of Enoch was created when Enoch was the only human to enter the heavens?

  • Menander, Thais 218 / 1 Corinthians 15:33

    Rex

    It's one line Paul used, so his audience would have a frame of reference to apply something in their new Greek Christian life. So he paraphrased a known Greek playwright. Pretty smart. But not inspired. In fact, it's PAGAN. But still OK advice. As long as you don't beat your fellow brother with it. ...

    So sirens and giants are real they aren’t just mythical creatures but where once alive this doesn’t explain why we are told that giants and sirens didn’t exist once

  • Luke 4:23 / Genesis Rabbah 23:4

    Kynszch Didales

    Since almost all the memes and stories in the New Testament are rewrites of those in the Old Testament (the Jewish Torah) we should not be surprised to find that this one, commonly attributed to Jesus, actually comes from Genesis, written 500 years before Jesus was said to have been born. However i ...

    I'd love to have an Ethiopian Bible

  • Zechariah 1:8 / Revelation 19:11

    Matt Hunter

    The placement of this commentary by Beale is misleading. In the context of Beale’s article, it is clear that this quote refers to the rider in Revelation 6, not this rider in Revelation 19.

  • 1 Enoch 19:1 / 1 Corinthians 10:20

    Clint

    In response to Gabrielle and Ivy's question I would answer that if we take the book of First Enoch as being real and inspired by God (which I most definitely do) then yes sirens are absolutely real, and they are also the source of the mythology behind sirens and mermaids.

  • Matthew 7:3 / Kiddushin 70a

    David Green

    He seeks out the wisdom of all the ancients, and is concerned with prophecies; 2 he preserves the sayings of the famous and penetrates the subtleties of parables; 3 he seeks out the hidden meanings of proverbs and is at home with the obscurities of parables. - Yeshua ben Eleazar Ben Sirach of Jerus ...

  • 1 Enoch 19:1 / 1 Corinthians 10:20

    Shane

    Why is it so hard to find out what to eat as righteous? It’s a sin to eat demon food which is almost everything, so what do we eat to be on Gods menu?

  • 1 Samuel 25:37 / LXX 1 Samuel 25:37

    David Green

    What is meant by the statement "like a stone", is synonymous with what we see elsewhere in OT scripture described as having a hard heart, or the hardening of ones heart. The LXX paints a better context for this by describing the preceding condition of his heart in the statement "and the heart of Nab ...

  • Matthew 6:13 / Siddur Ashkenaz

    David Green

    Come to think of it, Sirach 23 does bear a faint resemblance to parts of the Lord's prayer as well. 4 O Lord, Father and God of my life, do not give me haughty eyes, 5 and remove evil desire from me.

  • Genesis 15:6 / Samaritan Genesis 15:6

    David Green

    The Samaritan version is consistent with the dialogue in Genesis 18:23-25, where we see Abraham interviewing (a potential candidate for the position of) God, speaking to him not as an equal, but as a "greater than", with language like "Far be it from you!".

  • Matthew 7:5 / Bava Metzia 107b

    Aryeh Cohen

    Arachin 16b "If one says to him 'remove the wood chip from your eye,' he will reply 'remove the beam from your eye."

  • Genesis 1:1 / Neofiti Genesis 1:1

    Prince D

    The Memra of the Lord is in the Targum Neofiti. I was say that that Targum is analogous to a Bible paraphrase. Meaning, the translator(s) didn’t merely translate the underlying Hebrew but also added their understanding or interpretation. One can say that they attempted to make the text even clearly ...

  • 1 Enoch 99:8 / 2 Thessalonians 2:11

    Darnell

    Who taught to smite the embryo in the womb?

  • Isaiah 64:4 / 1 Corinthians 2:9

    David Green

    1 Corinthians 2 7 But we speak God's wisdom, secret and HIDDEN, which God decreed before the ages for our glory. 8 None of the rulers of this age understood this; for if they had, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory. 9 But, as it is written, "What no eye has seen, nor ear heard, nor the ...

  • 1 Enoch 8:1 / Legends of the Jews 3

    Anonymous

    So it’s sin to use colorful clothes ?

  • 1 Enoch 21:6 / Revelation 20:3

    Lucas Oliver

    In 1 Enoch 21:6 does it literally mean ten thousand of what we measure years present time?

  • Genesis 1:3 / The Memphite Theology

    David Green

    Hopefully you will find some of this knowledge helpful: Elohim pr El-WhoIAm (Ex 3.14), not YHWH, was the Gen 1 creator. In Gen 2 "YHWH-Elohim" completes the pair, which together go by the name Adonai (Add an I). This is reflected in Ps 136 and Ps 22, which starts with Elohim, then YHWH is introduce ...
