quote: Actually, I provided evidence for 'everything' you asked for, with no omissions any place.
quote: There was no conquest! Jerusalem is a Hebrew name, situated in the original Israelite land where they were incepted. My history book says the Jews have never occupied another peoples' land in all their 4000 year history; this is true even when one becomes desperate to go back to 3000 years. My history book says the reverse of those who make such charges. Your omissions keep piling up. Are you even aware that land cannot be given to Jews even for free: there is a command NOT TO TAKE EVEN A CUBIT OF ANOTHER PEOPLE'S LAND. This is why the Jews did not accept massive chunks of land in Africa and Australia, returning only to their tiny, barren land they came from. They never robbed Pakistan, Kashmir, Bangladesh, Saudi Arabia, Iraq, all those Gulf states, Krakow or Moscow. Egypt is land stolen from the Copts; Lebanon is land stolen from the Christians; yet no one bothers. Maybe we should get some Jews there - that will impact! All 22 Regime states are fictions, created by Britain for 30 barrels of oil, constituting a real, non-virtual Judas. And who is going to take Britain to task - the Pope!? The greatest Post-W.W.II crime is the corruption of the Balfour and the transfering of the name Palestinian onto Muslims - a name held exclusively by Jews for 2000 years. These are covert, new forms of genocide via Heil Hitler salutes at the UN. It is also why Eurabia is happening!
quote: David established Jerusalem on Israeli land: not in Pakistan or Saudi Arabia - new states which never existed 100 years ago; stolen from surrounding peoples. A small portion used for Jerusalem, a hill top, was purchased from the Jebusites, who were allies. In return they were given protection from outside invaders. The Hebrew bible is the world's most reliable scripture. The dates can be established via relics discovered and align with the writings.
quote: There was evidence. Jerusalem; a temple once existing; numerous wars with other nations; the conquest of the Philistines; the Psalms; the references to David from some 30 prophetic books; a geneology listing. The scholars were stupid, agenda based and proven so.
quote: There was no proof, as opposed evidence. It must be remembered the land of the Jews were occupied by invading peoples, including Christians and Muslims, and these have a notorious history of destroying evidence, and spreading horrific falsehoods around the world - all based on 'belief'. A billion Muslims today hold that Abraham, Moses and David were Muslims, with no mention of his race and religion whatsoever. This when both Islam and the Arab race never existed in David's time. Muslims have no cionnection with Ishmael - check it out! Muslims also have no connection with the term Palestinian - check that out too. These false histories were promoted by European Popes as a covert genocide of the Jews!
quote: There was no merit; this has now been proven. There is no merit that Jesus or any of the apostles ever existed. Your omissions are becoming taller than you.
quote: There is no proof or evidence of the Gospel figures. Zilch. Yet 2B super advanced and progressive people fully believe this. It seems this belief does not require proof - one of the most mysterious factors within humanity's history.
quote: I admire many Indian cultures and their generous attitudes to others. However, miracles which are based on frivolous actions do not impress me, and these always smack of slight of hand. When a miracle has impacts on humanity and for all generations, such as to establish premises of Liberty and inalienable human rights - those have credibility. The reports I've heard of your mystic have been most negative, even exposing fraud, however I have not checked up on this matter.
quote: These are already listed as older in the Hebrew bible. I say very few can evidence a 3,200 year figure as historical; the Hebrew bible does. This gives credibility to a host of gfigures listed in the Hebrew, and which have cross-references by other nations. Your the one not acknowledging the merit of the Hebrew; many also calling it fables - the same who accept numerous figures from the Gospels with zero credibility. This tells me humanity is on a depraved path, upholing a totally unproven and falsified history, then causing mass murders on that premise.
quote: That is still few, and most of them are in dispute. Hamurabi is in dispute of his datings, as are a host of Greek figures.
quote: Santa has no proof of existence. Moses gave us hard copy laws which turn the world today. What did Santa give us? We should not look for hard proof of Moses - the text denies this possibility.
quote: 3 Million Israelites and a mixed multitude of other peoples. This is described in the first scientific cencus, with sub-total of tribes, gender and age groups. Now if one wants to present a lie - they surely would not say millions were witness - would you?

IamJoseph,
You are unwilling or unable to provide any sourced evidence other than the Old Testament. Your views often contradict all known historical information and regularly defy logic and common sense. Your interpretation of the Old Testament is most often contradictory to the interpretation of scholars including Jewish religious scholars. Your views of Jewish history are most often contradictory to the views of scholars, historians, archaeologists etc including opposition to official historical information supplied by the government of Israel. You dont seem to be able to tell the difference between conjecture, unverifiable assertions, random guessing and facts. You believe that if you say it, it becomes a fact. You believe that if you say it many times, not only is it a fact but you have also provided evidence. Your problems with English comprehension lead you to answer questions with replies that seem to have little connection to what is asked. You regularly 'shift the goalposts', refuse to answer or simply ignore direct questions, you refuse to address or simply ignore information that refutes your position, you claim no information exists that could refute your position in replies to posts that contain that exact information. Your religious fundamentalism make it nearly impossible for you to engage in intellectually honest debate. For these reasons I will no longer engage in debates with you unless you reply to one of my posts or directly refer to one of my posts. I hope that ignoring you is more effective at highlighting the problems that exist in your posts than discussing the issues with you. It seems that debating with you gives the impression that what you are saying should be taken seriously. I have leant a lot about Judaism and the Old Testament in my research so this has not been a total waste of my time. Cheers, BT

I'm not religious, never mind fundamentalist! It seems I was correct not to accept your scholars' view of David being fable and myth: I saw loads of evidence, where your scholars saw none. Nothing whatsoever to do with religion or belief, only factual, logical pursuit of truth applies: You have also lost the debate of the Hebrew bible being the first alphabetical book; that the universe being finite was introduced in Genesis, and that Evolution is a bad rip off from the creation chapter in Genesis.

Hi Joseph,
IamJoseph writes: What ails thee o knight of arms, alone and palely loitering? Nothing ails me. You just can't understand English so I don't know if you can read it or not. You said this in Message 259 was what Deut. 13:1 said:
quote: Deuteronomy 13:1 says:
quote: In light of your quote and what the text actually says I can begin to understand your problem with what the text in Genesis chapter 6 and 7 is saying. You don't have a clue as to what the text says. That is the reason you tell me that וכל־ביתד means domestic animals. You also define "EVERY" as some.You also define "ALL" as some. You also define "WHOLE HEAVENS" as part of the heavens. You also define "ALL THE HIGH HILLS" as some of the high hills was covered with water. I am beginning to get the picture that if the text does not say what you want it to say that you just change it to suit your worldview. Now if you disagree give me your definitions of: "EVERY""ALL" "WHOLE HEAVENS" "ALL THE HIGH HILLS" Since the text concerning the life forms on Earth to be destroyed says:
quote: That verse says man, beast, the creeping thing and fowls of the air. It leaves no one or no air breathing creature who would not be destroyed.
quote: Verse 17 says God will bring a flood to destroy "ALL FLESH" that breathed the breath of life. Verse 18 begins the exceptions to being destroyed listing first Noah and his sons and their wives. Verse 19 includes two of every living thing of all flesh, male and female was to be kept alive in the ark. Verse 20 includes two of every kind fowl, of every kind of cattle, and of every kind of creeping thing that would come to the ark, to be kept alive. Now show me I am wrong about what you can understand and what you can't understand by detailing how your assertions of a local flood took place and Noah only had his domestic animals on the ark in light of what these verses say. Noah was told to build an ark to save himself and family from the flood as well as two of every living creature on planet Earth, as God was going to destroy all flesh, air breathing creatures. He was told how to build it.
quote: So Noah was to build an ark 300 x 50 x 30 cubits. The shortest cubit is given as 17.5 inches and the longest cubit as 25.6 inches with Noah's cubit given as 20.3 inches. I can't find where or why Noah's cubi is given as 20.3 instead of the Holy cubit which is 25.3 inches. You can find a cubit caculator Here that you can select any size cubit you want too, but you can't find one smaller than 17.5. Im Message 260 you said:
IamJoseph writes: These measurements are not subject to confusion, as you have done in a number of posts thus far. The measurements of the house which contained the Arc, for example, are verifiable in the historical, specifc writings of Josephus and the temple scroll found in the dead sea scroll package. Example measurements of walls, pillars and porches of the Jerusalem temple given in cubits [roughly a foot; elbow to fingers]: I ask before and I ask again, where do you get your definition of a cubit from? In Message 264 I presented a partial list of creatures, although it was all I could come up with that was domestic animals you claim was in the ark. I asked you to expand the list if I had left out any. So I ask again, what is incomplete with this list?
quote: Please present any creature I left out. I will then tell you what size ark was need to house the critters for your flood journey of Noah's so called household. Now if you care to debate the issues please present your argumentation and any supporting evidence you can come up with that supports your position. Any blather that is not related to the subject at hand will not be answered. If you care to continue in your blather start a thread in the free for all and carry on. But in this thread please stick to the subject of Noah's flood as we are getting to the end and I have not learned anything from your blather so far. If you have any argumentation and evidence present it now or conceed you have no idea what you have been talking about.

You are covering the same ground obsessively, without factoring any responsa. I gave you 100% proof the Hebrew bible laws forbids adding and subtracting from those laws, with verse numbers, yet you say you don't know what I'm talking about! Acknowledge your error, then move on. I also explained this is the reason Christianity and Judaism became two seperate belief systems - IMHO the Jews were correct: it is proven when Christianity rejected Islam - for similar reasons. Bite the bullet if your pursuit is for the truth as opposed any belief.
Further, I also stated the clean and unclean animals are limited to Noah's household [the text], the reason no wild animals are listed: because they cannot be domestic animals! In all your posts you disregarded the verse which stipulates that only Noah and his family and only his household possessions, are applicable!

Hi Joseph,
IamJoseph writes: You are covering the same ground obsessively, without factoring any responsa. I gave you 100% proof the Hebrew bible laws forbids adding and subtracting from those laws, I keep covering the same ground because you have not answered the questions, nor have you presented 100% proof of anything. You quoted a verse of scripture that does not exist in the Bible. When presented a direct quote of the verse you ignore it and repeat you have presented 100% evidence that the verse says what you say. This turkey is done. If you want to discuss it start a thread.
IamJoseph writes: Further, I also stated the clean and unclean animals are limited to Noah's household [the text], But the law of Moses did not exist for 857 years after the flood. The Law was given to the descendants of Isaac the son of Abraham and Sarah. So why are we actually discussing clean and unclean animals? If you check the verses in chapter 6 & 7 of Genesis you will find the only use of clean and not clean prior to the Law being given to Moses, who delivered it to the people.
quote: There is no mention of clean or not clean critters in these verses in the chapter where instructions were given for the construction of the ark and the critters who were to be the passengers including the descriptions of the humans.
quote: Those are the only verses that say anything about clean critters and unclean or not clean critters in the Bible until you get to the book of Leviticus.
quote: Verse 46 makes a statement concerning when the Law of the beasts, fowl and every living creature that moveth in the waters, and every creature that creepeth upon the earth became effective. In other words this is when the law of clean and unclean beasts was instituted not before. The flood took place around 2304 BC.The exodus took place around 1447 BC. That is 857 years after the flood took place. Why would Moses mention clean and not clean animals in Genesis chapter 7 & 8 when he knew there was no Law concerning the animals that were to be on the ark? It is ludicrous to think Moses wrote the texts that defines clean and not clean when it did not exist. The only way those things were mentioned was by some misguided copyist that knew they had to be clean or unclean animals being talked about. I just wonder how much more was added to the text in chapter 7, to make it a Israelite story instead of a Gentile story which it was as the nation of Israel did not exist at the time of Noah. Yea I know you don't believe something like that could happen. But they were just as zealous as you are and just as misguided. According to the text in Genesis chapter 6 there was male and female of every critter that had the breath of life in them, on the ark.Along with 8 humans, 4 male and 4 female. I see you still can't understand English or answer questions. You don't have a clue as to what the text says. That is the reason you tell me that וכל־ביתד means domestic animals. You also define "EVERY" as some.You also define "ALL" as some. You also define "WHOLE HEAVENS" as part of the heavens. You also define "ALL THE HIGH HILLS" as some of the high hills was covered with water. I am beginning to get the picture that if the text does not say what you want it to say that you just change it to suit your worldview. Now if you disagree give me your definitions of: "EVERY""ALL" "WHOLE HEAVENS" "ALL THE HIGH HILLS" If you don't give me your definitions I am going to assume that I got them right. Since you did not take the time to address the following am I to assume that you agree with the following list? 7 oxen allowed7 cows allowed. 7 bison allowed. 7 wild deer allowed. But you say no wild animals. Not allowed. 7 sheep allowed. 7 goats allowed. 7 Gazelle allowed. 7 Giraffe allowed. 7 chickens allowed. 7 doves allowed. If the following was not wild they would be allowed. 7 ducks allowed. 7 geese allowed. 7 turkeys allowed. 2 Rahvins not allowed according to you as they would have been wild. 2 horses allowed. 2 asses allowed. 2 tame cats allowed. 2 tame dogs allowed. If you disagree with the above list please add any animals you think would have been in Noah's household. I would really like to know how big your ark would have to be to be able to house Noah, his sons, and all their wives plus the critters. I can't do that without a complete list. Can you address the topic? OR Have you decided to abandon the topic all together? You have about half of 21 posts left to support all your assertions you have made in this thread about the flood story. God Bless,"John 5:39 (KJS) Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me."

quote: Which one is that?
quote: This referred to the law not to add or subtract. I stand by that.
quote: Irrelevent. You still did not factor in a pivotal verse in the Noah story, relating only to Noah's household! Everything you say MUST align with it.
quote: True the laws were given later, but this does not effect the standing of the law; only the people were yet not onuserable for it. Clean and unclean are words in the Noah story, relating to Noah's household; they are directed at consumerable and non-consumerable animals in Noah's household. You are using this as referring to all the animals of the earth, in contradiction of Noah's household animals and the size of the arc given to Noah.
quote: Totally short sighted. The law was the law, even in Noah's time. But it was not yet given. Jacob married two sisters, which is forbidden by the law. It means the law was the law, but Jacob was not guilty of it at that time. Moses, writing retrospectively, knew of this law, using its terminology to describe clean and unclean animals - in Noah's household only. It means also, if Christians eat pig, it is against a law, but that Christians are not onuserable for it - they were not given this law directly; this law is for the protection of the pig, as opposed protection of humans, as with the law not to mix meat and milk being for the protection of the bird - it can identify its mother's milk but humans cannot perform this feat.
quote: Yes, I attach it to Noah's household, the arc size - and good grammar [the text] quote: Every is aligned with Noah's household, not all the earth, not all the heavens and the universe. [the text] quote: All in Noah's household.
quote: The whole heavens "of Noah's region". As in ALL THE EARTH STOOD STILL.
quote: My reading is consistant, I do not ignor pivotal verses, instead I align it with everything else in the text. You do the reverse, never even mentioning it anywhere.
quote: I have responded to those items numerously with no possibility of confusion.
quote: There is no reason to disagree Noah would have possessed all or those kinds of animals. Your list includes both clean and unclean animals. Notably, they contain no wild animals like snakes and bears, aligning only with my reading of the text.
quote: The arc size is well catered to Noah's household possessions only, and agrees only with my reading of the text.

There is a Creation museum which shows dinosaurs living side by side with humans. This understanding is unrelated to the text in Genesis and a totally wrong, embarrassing understanding of the Hebrew bible.
As well, Christians read Genesis as the earth's age being 6000 years old, when this only applies to a life form different from and possessing a unique trait: namely a speech endowed attribute; this is vindicated today - we have no NAME older than 6000; not even any history per se. In fact, Genesis is the first document which said the earth is billions of years old, 1000's of years before science affirmed it. One only has to include the pre-life actions listed in Genesis, namely the seperation actions of light and darkness, day and night, water and land; these account for billions and millions of years, and is listed well before any life emerged. The Christian view is held in sincerity, but are in error. The text is not in error, but it requires intelligent deliberation.

Hi Joseph,
It's refreshing to see that you can actually respond to a post with a little substance.
IamJoseph writes: Which one is that? The one you quoted giving the book, chapter, and verse as saying:
quote: The actual text says:
quote: Now either you can't read and understand English if you can't tell the difference in what the text says from what you assert it says or you are being deliberately dishonest with your assertions.
IamJoseph writes: This referred to the law not to add or subtract. I stand by that. But what you said Deut. 13:1 says does not exist in Deut. 13:1.
IamJoseph writes: Irrelevent. You still did not factor in a pivotal verse in the Noah story, relating only to Noah's household! Everything you say MUST align with it. Why must everything align with your misinterpertation of Genesis 7:1? Genesis 7:1 has to align with what is found in Genesis chapter 6. In Message 248 I gave you the following which you did not coment on. I don't know if I was talking over your head and you did not understand what was said or you were being deliberately deceptive.
quote: This verse tells Noah what animals are to be on the ark. ומכל־החי translation, and from all the lifeמכל־בשר from all flesh שנים two מכל from all תביא will come אל־התבה־־להחית to the vessel to exist אתד at you זכר male ונקבה and female יהיו they exist Reading:And from all the life from all flesh two from all will come to the vessel to exist at you male and female they exist. Please explain from that verse what creature on planet Earth would not come to the vessel to be able to exist? That is the reason I asked you for your definition's of 'all', and 'every'. I find no life form left out in either word. Now somehow you have convinced yourself that וכל־ביתד means domestic animals. וכל The first letter is and the second two letters is all.־ puts the second noun in construct making it, of ביתד your house or your family. It has nothing to do with any animals that Noah might own.It has nothing to do with the region in which Noah might live. IamJoseph writes: True the laws were given later, but this does not effect the standing of the law; only the people were yet not onuserable for it. If the laws were given 857 years later they were not in effect and there was no such thing as a clean or not clean critter. They were just critters. And yes no one is answerable to a law that does not exist. So why were the critters answerable for a law that did not exist?
IamJoseph writes: Clean and unclean are words in the Noah story, Yes I can read I know they are there. My question is why are they there? The law was not in effect so there would be no clean or unclean critters. All would have been considered the same. The only reason they could be there is because someone later decided they should be there. Moses did not put them there or he would have also used them in chapter 6 when he said:
quote: These are the critters that were supposed to come to the ark to be preserved to repopulate the Earth after the flood. There is no mention of critters of Noah's household or clean or unclean critters, just critters male and female of "ALL" life forms.
IamJoseph writes: they are directed at consumerable and non-consumerable animals in Noah's household. But for these Gentiles who were never under the law which did not exist at that time there was no clean or unclean critters.
IamJoseph writes: You are using this as referring to all the animals of the earth, in contradiction of Noah's household animals and the size of the arc given to Noah. I am not the only one refering to all the animals of the earth. The text plainly says:
quote: EVERY LIVING THING OFALL FLESH OF EVERY SORT OF FOWLS AFTER THEIR KIND OF CATTLE AFTER THEIR KIND OF EVERY CREEPING THING OF THE EARTH AFTER HIS KIND TWO OF EVERY SORT SHALL COME UNTO THEE. So the text says ALL and EVERY. So name one critter that was left out of those two verses.
IamJoseph writes: Totally short sighted. The law was the law, even in Noah's time. The law did not exist in Noah's time. The law came 857 years after the flood.
IamJoseph writes: Yes, I attach it to Noah's household, YesI know you attach it to Noah's household and ignore anything that goes against what you believe.
IamJoseph writes: Every is aligned with Noah's household, not all the earth, not all the heavens and the universe. [the text] So your definition of 'EVERY' is 'SOME'. So why didn't Moses use אחד which is one or some rather than כל which means all, whole, every, and totally everything. There is no room in the word Moses used to mean anything less that totality every living breathing critter on the entire dry land perishing as the total dry land was covered with the highest hill being covered with 15 cubits of water. Now you are welcome to your belief just remember the word is what is correct whether you are correct or not.
IamJoseph writes: My reading is consistant, I do not ignor pivotal verses, You only ignore those that disagree with your worldview.
IamJoseph writes: There is no reason to disagree Noah would have possessed all or those kinds of animals. Your list includes both clean and unclean animals. Notably, they contain no wild animals like snakes and bears, aligning only with my reading of the text. I only named animals that would be in what you call Noah's household as they would all have to be domestic animals. I also used the number of clean animals that the law that did not exist for 857 years required. I was simply asking you for any additional animals you thought might be in the ark.
IamJoseph writes: The arc size is well catered to Noah's household possessions only, and agrees only with my reading of the text. I don't know how you can make such a statement or assertion. I have ask you several time for the length of a cubit and the source you got that information from and you present nothing. So the cubit is whatever you want it to be therefore the ark is as large or as small as you want it to be. The smallest known cubit is 17.5 inches not the foot you assert. Using the animals listed above and the 8 humans your ark would have to be 100 cubit's x 16.6 cubits by 14.5 cubits using the 17.5 cubit as the unit of measure. Your ark would consist of 1 floor and would contain 1 1/2 times the volume required for the animals and humans listed above. So why was Noah told to build an ark that was 300 cubits x 50 cubits x 30 cubits with 3 floors below the main deck? If I use feet for cubits I still get 13 times the cubit feet required to house the 8 humans and the animals listed above. Why would Noah be told to build such a huge ark for so few animals and humans? God Bless,"John 5:39 (KJS) Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me."

quote: Are you seriously confused of such a pivotal law and discussing this bible? FYI, I claimed [or should have] Duet 13/1:
quote: Now you see why Christianity and Judaism could not/did not blend in their core doctrines, and that the Jews were right of it. Only that which cannot be added to or subtracted from is the real mcoy. Thus did Christianity foster Islam to emulate by the same premise. Result: Kaos - for all cannot right, obviously, and this does not change by the 'belief' factor. And these are the souls which were called into the arc; note it says 'thou shall take' - which can only apply to Noah taking his animals; and 'all thy house' - namely all Noah's possessions of clean & unclean animals:
quote: These are the people and animals which emerged from the arc when the flood ceased. Note it says 'Bring forth with thee' [Noah's animals with Noah]; 'every living thing that is with thee' [animals which are with thee - Noah's animals]; 'of all flesh' - here you see clearly what 'all flesh' means: 'all flesh that is with thee [in the arc with Noah]; not all the flesh of the earth. Note also it says: '18 And Noah went forth, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons' wives with him; [refers to the people who went in]; 19 'every beast, every creeping thing, and every fowl, whatsoever moveth upon the earth' - namely all the creeping things, whatsoever moved - not all the life that moved on the earth!

Hi IamJoseph,
If you're going to use the Masoretic text, where the last verse of chapter 12 is the first of chapter 13, you might want to mention it.
