Zone1 What does The Chosen People actually mean?

[Donald H]

You must include in your speculations that when most of the Bible was written it was written during times of oppression exile or war and there was no such thing as freedom of speech and people were imprisoned, tortured, enslaved, maimed and slaughtered on a daily basis without any justice for trivial reasons. That being said any "demonized" group of people who wrote scripture, whether Jewish or Christian, wrote in code just like any "criminalized" or "outlawed" group of people like the cosa nostra still speak in code to this day. Capisce?

One must learn "the figurative language of the prophets" to know what they were saying.

Its all literally true.

"The kingdom of heaven is like hidden treasure buried in a field. (the Bible) The man who found it (Jesus) BURIED IT AGAIN". If you look and look and keep on looking you will find it.

Can you dig it?

I don't need to dig up a book to understand what they were saying for profit.

The lies were supposed to be literally true but a century of science made the lies impossible to believe. That's the reason why Ding's Catholic church gave their flock permission to believe in Darwin's evolution.

For example: Some Christians on this board are still clinging to life in a fish's belly for 3 days is actually possible! Ask Backagain.

So epic conspiracy?

You act like this is a new belief. It's been around for thousands of years.

 

[Donald H]

I never needed permission, dummy. Besides Genesis already told us 6,000 years before science that the universe was created from nothing and then evolved sequentially in a logical fashion over time.

I've contacted the CC and they have confirmed that I can believe Darwin and deal accordingly with Genesis.

I'm not denying that Lucy and Eve could have been the same woman. Lucy in Hebrew means Eve. ( don't mess with a gift horse) That's as good as you're getting from any atheist today!

 

[ding]

All that's important to the church is that their money is as good as the literal believers!

It's a good thing that you aren't seeking God. Imagine all the changes you'd have to make in your life. Talk about sacrifices. Oh boy!

Call me when you get a semi-intelligent argument.

no, that's the cover story and it's a big lie too.
Your granny started that one.

You want me to believe that the lies were invented thousands of years before the lies were invented??

You'll be calling me first. It is written my friend.

2 Maccabees 7:28
"I implore you, my child, observe heaven and earth, consider all that is in them, and acknowledge that God made them out of what did not exist, and that mankind comes into being the same way"

It was a special fish prepared for this event.

Your suffering says otherwise.

I knew you were lying when you contacted me first! It's a Christian thing.

Mac bee confirms too that the god was making shit up.

Nope. Maybe try using google instead of blurting out stupid statements.

do jews believe God created the universe from nothing?

The stories, from the beginning, were never intended to be taken literally by the intelligent. They were written to educated Jewish people especially children about the dangers of living in a wilderness teeming with strange insane irrational and violent creatures, knuckle dragging barbarians hell bent on destroying the Jewish nation or getting the people to eat pork. WTF. Not until superstitious pagan Rome assimilated and perverted Christianity and claimed authority over all scripture in 325CE, claiming it was history instead of literature, did it become a sinister con, a well oiled money making machine, a scarlet beast drunk on the blood of Gods people, feasting on blasphemous obscenities, fleecing the gullible for life using "the power of death" consequent to defying Divine Law to subjugate the nations, under the sign of the Mithran cross, the secret Babylonian "mystery religion" of the Roman government and military.


You might not realize this but to Jesus, his disciples, his followers, and authors of the gospels who witnessed the destruction of Judea, their way of life and the enslavement exile and slaughter of hundreds of thousands of Jewish men women and children "the nations" were the enemy.

The gospels amount to a 1st century equivalent of the nuclear option that has rendered the entire planet a desolation for thousands of years. Preserving the treasures of the nation by hiding them in plain sight, above their enemies head.

"I have not come to bring peace but a sword" "From his mouth there went a sharp sword with which to smite the nations"

"Take this cup of wine and drink it, all of you. This is a cup of my blood, the blood of the covenant"

"Take from my hand this cup of fiery wine and make all the nations to whom I send you drink it. When they have drunk it they will vomit and go mad; such is the sword that I am sending among them" (the sword is clearly identified as a curse under the appearance of a cup of wine)

“Then tell them, ‘This is what the Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, says: Drink, get drunk and vomit, and fall to rise no more because of the sword I will send among you.’ But if they refuse to take the cup from your hand and drink, tell them, ‘This is what the Lord Almighty says: You must drink it! See, I am beginning to bring disaster on the city that bears my Name, and will you indeed go unpunished? You will not go unpunished, for I am calling down a sword on all who live on the earth, declares the Lord Almighty.’

"Just art thou, in these thy judgments, thou Holy One who art and wast; for they shed the blood of thy people and of thy prophets and thou hast given them blood to drink.

Make your point in one short paragraph at a time. I don't have the time or the interest to read through all the bogus 'symbolic' bullsh-t.
I do have an interest on debating and separating the wheat from the gawd chaff.

Fwiw, what's the 'ish' for with the Jews? We don't say japaneseish or Chineseish. What's wrong with just saying 'Jews'?

Ish means man in Hebrew.

It is important for someone trying to sound intelligent to not ask ignorant questions.

Note this!

All right, let me make it simple for you from now on.. I wouldn't want to hurt your head.

The gospels were the first century equivalent of the nuclear option that has rendered the entire planet a desolation for thousands of years, preserving the treasures of the Jewish nation by hiding them in plain sight, above their enemies head, in fantastical stories that acted like malware deliberately uploaded right into the belly of the scarlet beast. Rome.

It is parallel to -ian for Christian. The real question would be by is there no separate short form for Christian as the equivalent to Jew. Jewish just means "of the religion or culture or heritage of Judaism"

 

[rosends]

Ish means man in Hebrew.

Note this!

The independent word ish in Hebrew is unrelated to the English suffix. Swedish has nothing to do with "man" in Hebrew.
