An even better story is how zoroastrianism influenced Judaism during the period when Judah was subject to Persia. This is where the idea of dualism comes into play ie this is where the idea of the devil comes from. This is also where the idea of heaven comes from. Death to jews of that day was just sleep . Reference when the necromancer. Raises the spirit of the prophet for saul (I think) regardless, the word "paradise" is a Persian.. zoroastrianism greatly influenced Judaism just as much as the hellenistic period did.. An ancient jew wouldn't even recognize modern day Jewish beliefs and Christianity comes from that.. I'd study the Greek and Persian religions just as much as you do the Bible if you truly want to understand it

We are definitely going to look at Greek culture in a future class. You should come back for that!
Judah is Montserrat hon and Africa. Read Joel 3.
Sorry, I don't understand your comment. Why read Joel 3?
