Noah's Ark with two of EVERY animal

[Faun]

You are correct; I just got out of bed.
But please call him Yitzchak from now on.

Why? This is America in the year 2022. I speak English. His name is Isaac.

More precisely, Christians see the portrayal of God in the Old Testament as being mean. Jesus presents a vastly different picture of God. The reason I began delving into the Old Testament was to discover why Jews thought God was so mean. Surprise! I learned Jews did not view God as mean--and nor do the Old Testament stories portray God as such when they are viewed properly from the perspective of the Hebrew language.

The problem is that Jesus was a very nasty person.

Isaac is a name.
Yitzchak has a meaning…I will laugh.
Sarah was being scoffed at by Hagar and Sarah was depressed until she finally got pregnant after many years.
The name Yitzchak sends a message.

 

[Faun]

Tell us about each one.

The Torah doesn't go that far into detail.

Sputters the idiot who mixed him up with Ishmael.

The Torah doesn't go that far into detail.

The Torah doesn’t state in any verse that God had children.
You are referring to the NT.

Ad hominem.
The people I know who are proud of their name should never be called by another name.

He wasn't. He saw things differently than did wealthy Scribes and Sadducees. He disagreed with some Pharisees and agreed with others. Take Annas and Caiaphas for example. Even in their own time, they weren't well like by the average person. In that respect, Jesus was the average Jew of his time.

Sputters the idiot who says the Torah states that God had children and can’t quote even one verse.

Touché!

I can, and have, read the NT 6 times in chronological order; Jesus was a nasty person which of why The RCC used Jesus to murder Jews.

Christians believe we are all sons and daughters of God. We believe Jesus had that relationship with God--and that it also extends far beyond Son. That is his human nature. Christians believe his Divine nature is One with God--which is why we learn detail.

Let's take one at a time. Can you tell me about a single event or words that has you viewing Jesus as nasty?

The issue is that the infallible Faun once heard the word Eh-Low-Him and thinks it means “God”.
It means “Judge”.

I hate to say this but all you have to do is read the NT because he is nasty 99% of the time when referring to Jews.

 

[Meriweather]

That's good to know. Thank you.

[DudleySmith]

According to the Bible, the story of Noah & the flood dates back 4124 years. Not at the end of the ice age.

Where is the verse that claims that?

 

[Indeependent]

That's good to know. Thank you.

The word is plural so the Rabbis taught that a case requires at least 3 judges because you can’t have a court case where there is no conclusion.

He's long dead, you don't know him.

Thank God you picked the verse I was expecting you to pick!
Why is there a Hay before the work Eh-Low-Him?
