"Why is the fact, that 1 Maccabees 2 and James' use of it (plagiarizing of it as he does not reference 1 MAC 2? It matters Not when this interpretation was accepted, IT IS FACTUALLY INCORRECT, as the truth is told ONCE in Genesis 15, where God Declares Abram justified in a contract that did not imply..."

"The piece from the Jerusalem Berakhot 2.8 is dated 375-425 C.E.

"Love these powerful quotes from the New and Old Testament of Orthodox Christians. D.A. Carson's statement doesn't make sense, since faithful believers before Jesus obviously embraced Enoch as Old Testament book that was miraculously translated by 6 trusted Jewish scholars of each of the 12 tribes wh..."
