what are we calling "the arab world" this year and 2000 years ago? Egypt---where everyoneI wouldn't be surprises as every literate nation wanted contact with Jews.I am fully aware of what your Arab sites claim about Judaism.Who cares?You might as well read The National Enquirer for your news.You're hilarious.I know some "scholars"...they're on a payroll.When you can figure out all of the imagery of Daniel, write a book.So he is not a prophet despite his prediction down to the very day when "Messiah would be cut off and have nothing for himself?" I'd say Daniel was one of the greatest prophets at all. The 490 years determined upon Israel or 70 week years is one of the most interesting prophecies in The Bible. At week 69 or 483 years, Messiah was cut off, pausing the prophetic clock.Daniel was recognized by his peers, not as a prophet, but as having what is called a Separate Spirit, which is why his book is vague.I bet you laugh at the book of Daniel too.Revelation is a bunch of horseshit.Tanach was here way before the NT and the NT has a few thousand misquotes.In all fairness, that works both ways.You cannot have a valid discussion with someone who believe in the NT.getting back to the subject. Has SB 327 been removed from the Georgia State
legal code? Gdjjrr ??? has Abby Martin been RE-INVITED to speak at Georgia State?
SOMEBODY must know-------how about SURADA?
I am INTRIGUED Do you have a citation referring to Emperor'So the NEXT PM is ultra religious Orthodox Jew and was elected with just 5% of the vote.Abby Martin Beats the Israel Lobby
Attack on Free Speech and Association Fails Court Test
Many Americans who follow developments overseas would concede that Israel and its supporters in the United States exercise a fairly high level of control over U.S. foreign policy in the Middle East. Some are also aware of Congressional attempts to introduce legislation that would define criticism of the Jewish state as a federal hate crime. That would narrow the options for discussion, infringing on First Amendment free speech rights, and further tighten the grip on policy. It would also make violators of the new law subject to fines and even imprisonment at the hands of the Department of Justice, which has traditionally responded favorably on issues of concern to Israel and its supporters.

In 2016 in Georgia Governor Nathan Deal signed off on a law designated SB 327, which is similar to legislation currently active in at least thirty states. The bill is entitled “State Purchasing; prohibit the state from entering into certain contracts unless such contracts contain a certification; does not presently conduct a boycott of Israel” and reads “A BILL to be entitled an Act to amend Part 1 of Article 3 of Chapter 5 of Title 50 of the Official Code of Georgia Annotated, relating to general authority, duties, and procedure relative to state purchasing, so as to prohibit the state, including all of its subdivisions and instrumentalities, from entering into certain contracts with an individual or company unless such contracts contain a certification that such individual or company does not presently conduct a boycott of Israel and will not conduct such a boycott for the duration of such contract; to exclude certain contracts from these requirements; to provide for definitions; to repeal conflicting laws; and for other purposes.”
In simple language, the law requires any person or company that enters into a contract with the State of Georgia worth $1,000 or more to sign a loyalty oath pledging not engage in political boycotts of the Israeli government based on its treatment of Palestinians.
Before commenting, read the article- let we the ignorant know your opinion on the whole thing.
Kinda like Joe Biden and Assad.
He if for building a Jewish Temple on the Temple Mount at all costs.
So once this guy is PM, you should start reading The Book of Revelation to figure out what is coming next.
Revelation says there is no Temple.
They tried to rebuild it about 300 AD under Emperor Justinian.
Justinian's efforts to rebuild the temple in Jerusalem?
There are many ..
Rebuilding the Jewish Temple, in 363 A.D.
Every stone of the Jewish 2nd Temple was over turned. Just as Jesus said they would be.bibleprobe.com
do you have a CREDIBLE citation? The thing you posted is historic revisionism.
I asked for something to support your assertion that JUSTINIAN wanted to
rebuild the Temple (?) or somebody else circa 300 AD (?) ---and somehow a bunch
of jews took it down STONE BY STONE (?)
Revelation isn't in the Tanach at all.
Revelation 21:22 Commentaries: I saw no temple in it, for the Lord God the Almighty and the Lamb are its temple. But I saw no temple in the city, because the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are its temple. (22) And I saw no temple therein . . . —Rather, And temple I saw not in it, for the Lord God the Almighty is her temple, and the Lamb.
I read it in 1999 and almost laughed my guts out at what you guys take seriously.
I imagine you pee yourself reading Ezekiel 38, Isaiah 17, and other prophetic books.
Revelation is just repeating in one book many of the old testament prophecies.
You can look at it as a summary of all the unfulfilled prophecies in the old testament with a little extra detail thrown in.
There are 7 years left, and these are called The Time of Jacob's Trouble or in the New Testament, The Tribulation.
But he's not a prophet, right? Pay no attention to Daniel, right? Even though he predicted the first appearance and crucifixions of Yeshuah, The Messiah who came as Messiah son of Joseph and is returning at the end of Jacob's Trouble as Messiah son of David?
Either everything Daniel said was true, or Daniel is a liar and everything he said is a lie.
Which is it?
No need.. fine scholars have studied it and written about it. Daniel was written 168-164 BC and loosely based on a 1500 year old Syrian poem from the Ugarit.
Some are, but not the best ones.
I have quite a few relatives who have PhDs and run some of the finest Universities in the US.
Sit down with them for dinner and discover that without their cue cards they are dumb as dogshit.
I was thinking of the tablets at Ras Shamra ..
One of the most, if perhaps not the most, important aspect of Ugaritic studies is the assistance it gives in correctly translating difficult Hebrew words and passages in the Old Testament. As a language develops the meaning of words changes or their meaning is lost altogether. This is also true of the Biblical text.

You're living in a world where every media outlet reports different facts on the same story and you believe that 1,000 years ago everyone was honest.
Are you that naïve?
The work at Ras Shamra confirms the tablets in Sumer and Dilmun.
That's like CNN confirming MSNBC.
Hebrew is Hebrew because the JOOOOS, unlike every other nation, has writings going all the back in history.
I will state that the worst purposeful mangler of Hebrew has been Artscroll.
By the way, you can't translate Hebrew in to a language like English because mindset of English is totally different than Hebrew.
Hebrew has only about 500 words and each word takes volumes to explain.
I have a library of several hundred books just on Torah.
500 words. I had read it was more like 300 words. The Jews had no foundation myths or national narrative until they returned from Babylon. The Habiru were not exactly cosmopolitan.. They were lawless fringe people.
Has nothing to do with what Arabs say. Why would the Arabs even care?
Habiru - Wikipedia
Habiru and the biblical Hebrews. The biblical word "Hebrew", like Habiru, began as a social category, and evolved into an ethnic one. Since the discovery of the 2nd millennium BCE inscriptions mentioning the Habiru, there have been many theories linking these to the Hebrews of the Bible.ʿApiru - Wikipedia

Jews lived all over the Arab world for more than 2000 years.... long before Islam. For the most part they prospered and got along OK. The problem has only developed with European Zionists who hated Arabs and the culture.. and they didn't speak Arabic. The problem with a million of them moving to Palestine was not because they were Jews.. It was because they were European foreigners.
spoke arabic? Syria---where everyone spoke arabic?
