    Спасибо вам огромное. Вы точно перевернули мой взгляд на Библию. 7 лет я управляла ходом богослужения в Православном монастыре. Библию знаю почти наизусть. Песни царя Давида читаю каждый день в течении 20 лет. Наверно именно древние пророки привели меня к вашим лекциям 6 дней назад. Совершенно другой взгляд на вещи. Моя свекровь Мальтийка, принадлежала к Испанскому Еврейскому роду Formoza - Ta Staferata. Который до сих пор управляет Мальтой. Только благодаря её поведению и отношением ко мне, я стала интересоваться древними писаниями. Хотя в нашей семье соблюдались все правила. Спасибо вам за вашу удивительную работу.

    I have several questions about how the Tanakh was composed. First off, I assume that the additions to the Septuagint (LXX) were discarded. When was that approximately? Likewise, in another talk you mentioned how the Ethiopian Jewish community makes use of the book of Enoch, was this at all influenced by the Coptic Church's use of Enoch; especially since no other body Jewish or Christian considers the text as canon. Lastly, does the bible "end" with Ketuvim or can one consider everything that came after (Mishnah, Midrash, and Talmud) part of the full of the biblical narrative.

    I believe the megillat Esther was up for debate for multiple reasons which a few you addressed.
    But there are others:
    - the story parallels a similar story of Ishtar and Marduk (Babylonian gods) and was replaced by Esther and Mordacai suggesting Jews in the Babylon took a babylonian holiday and made it their own (which goes against Moshe’s words in parshat Reeh (Devarim 12:30-32) which says not to inquire how the nations worship their gods and do that to HaShem.
    - it adds a holy day Purim which is not listed in Parshat Emor. On which its commanded to get drunk to the point you confuse Mordacai with Haman. Drunkenness always appears in a negative light throughout the Torah.
    - there is no other collaborating text to support King Ahasuerus ever existed questioning the historical integrity of the megillat.
    - the pole on which Mordacai was to be hanged is extremely exaggerated and very unlikely would have been used
    - the megillat really does not glory HaShem at the p’shat level

    Before the flood 360 days made a year. After the flood, things went askew: the Earth was in precession (tilted and spinning erratically). Four days had been added to a year. How? Well. Think about a figure skater. She's elegant, balletic, and she's making a spin. At first it's a graceful rotation, but she's going to put some speed. She draws her stabilizing outstretched arms inward, and spins faster. The same thing happened to the Earth. During the flood (after the fountains of the great deep burst open) she lost mass; material escaped the atmosphere. This lightened the load and so the Earth span faster, meaning more days in a year. At first this was 364, but because of imbalances in the mantle, fractures, which marked where raqiya material disappeared, prompted adjacent internal shearing. This melted rock. Molten rock is a compressible material, meaning it can be more or less dense than its surroundings. In the case of the former it expands, causing shallow earthquakes and volcanoes. When it's lower down and under more pressure it compresses, creating deep earthquakes. Compression of magma leaves a void in surrounding rock which snaps shut, and causes shearing elsewhere. Over time the accumulation of these deep quakes causes the Earth to contract, and, consequently, speed up. When men in our epoch learned how to calculate things, they realized the number of days increased over time, hence the need for new calendars every few centuries. Today you can do these calculations with atomic clocks and observe this speeding up every time there's a major earthquake.

    Why would Jewish people not teach the gentiles about God? Why does it seem to us gentiles that the Jewish people want to keep God to themselves?
    And why would Jewish people have gentiles convert and make them follow another set of laws, while The Torah teaches that the same law will be for the sojourners?

    • @EfraimPalvanov
      @EfraimPalvanov  7 месяцев назад

      The Torah does not require gentiles to follow all of its laws. It clearly states that the law is part of God's covenant with Israel specifically, and God only expects Israel to observe all of the Torah's laws. However, the Torah does advocate for gentiles to follow the seven Noahide Laws. Those who wish to convert to Judaism and formally join the Israelite nation and observe all Torah law are certainly welcome to do so.

      Not engaging in commerce on Shabbat is a Rabbinic prohibition, but there is a clear proof ("asmachta") for instituting it based on verses in 'Nakh. In other words, the law is not taken from the 'Nakh directly, but it is a Rabbinic fence that is strongly supported by descriptions in 'Nakh.

    In Jesus' parable of The Prodigsl Son He describes two sons. The younger demands that his father give him his portion of the inheritance. He doesnt have the patience to wait for his father to die. His parable goes on to say what happened to that son. Arthur E. Bailey, in his research of Middle Eastern life & practices quotes Ben Sirach's forceful argument against giving one's property to (anyone) during one's lifetime. Jesus would have known of Ben Sirach's work, which made his parable even more shocking in light of the father's response (Luke 15:12 - 32).

    Christians should remember that well Jesus never broke a law of Torah and while he respected and quoted the prophets he intentionally broke the rabbi man-made laws because the rabbis were skewing the word of God. Think of the Torah as the book and Jesus was the movie acting out how God wanted us to live. He said all the law and all the prophets come down to love the Lord your God with all your heart and love you fellow man as yourself. But he broke every man-made rule intentionally teaching us that the talmud the black hats none of that is part of the word of God. Fortunately those of us who have accepted Messiah are under the New Covenant paid for with his blood whereas the law is written on our hearts. Many who call themselves Christians have no connection to the Holy Spirit but Jesus is still alive and those of us who know him recognize that he smiles that his Jewish children studying the word knowing it will Point them to him
