What is you contribution here? There are two dates that are considered for the Exodus: the early date around 1445 BC, and the late date around 1270 BC For those that favor the early date this appears to be the accepted timeline (see web link)...

I go to a growing bible-based evangelical church. It's a great church and its where I found my salvation. I am taking an old testament survey class at my church. The assistant pastor is teaching from a Paul Benware Survey of the Old Testament Book. The pastor agrees with most things in the...

My Hypothesis: 2836 BC----------------2706 BC---------------2634 BC---------2276 BC----------------1846 BC------------1446 BC Birth of Jacob----Jacob enters Egypt---------Joseph dies----Iniquities Begin-----------Enslavement Begins---------Exodus...

Please share with me your timeline. This is the timeline that I have been shown (credit goes to Paul Benware). 2006 BC-----------------1876 BC---------------1804 BC----------------------1446 BC Birth of Jacob-----Jacob enters Egypt-----Joseph dies-------------------Exodus...

If I am wrong then I want to correct it. So please give me a time line of the events you are talking about and where the 400 and 430 fit in.

To be clear, I am NOT questioning the Word. I am trying to understand it. God's Word is bringing me to question how people are interpreting the Word. By your math this would mean that Joseph's family and brothers had to be enslaved before he died. But there is no indication at the end of...

Now I have been taught at my evangelical church, and I have thus far seen that the general consensus among evangelical churches is that the Israelites were enslaved for 360 yrs or less. http://www.conazarene.org/hp_wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/Bible-Timeline.pdf This church states...

So essentially you are saying that the 400 yrs and 430 yrs are the same thing as po-tay-to, po-tah-to. But didn't Moses write both books? The reason there is a 400 yr and 430 yr problem is because many people do not see this as simply po-tay-to, po-tah-to. Do you have anything else? Can...

I'm not sure I understand your conclusion. Are you saying that the 400 years are not meant to be taken literally (meaning that 400 years might really mean only 40 years), but that the 430 years are meant to be taken literally (meaning that 430 years means only 430 years)?

First: Let Us Overview The Problem: How do you solve the problem where Genesis 15 says 400 years and Exo. 12 says 430 years? Many have advanced various theories or solutions to the twin periods of 'four hundred years' and 'four hundred and thirty years', but when one considers these theories...

The Old Testament is a chronicle of Israel's repeated failure to obey God, of its refusal to keep His commandments and statutes. It is a repeated pattern where Israel is rewarded for obedience and punished for disobedience. This pattern appears to have existed since the beginning of Israel's...

But according to Paul Benware Abraham died in 1990 BC And the law was given a year after the exodus so that is 1445BC 1990 BC - 1445 BC = 545 years. 545 years does not match up with 430 years which you are citing from Galatians 3:17. What paul is suggesting that this 430 year period of time...

Well let me answer your question with a question. How do we know that the 400 years is part of the 430 years?

The bible does not say, "30 years not afflicted". It says they lived in Egypt 430 years. And it says they were enslaved and afflicted in Egypt for 400 years. However, according to Bible Professor Paul Benware: Jacob brought his family to Egypt in 1876 BC joseph died in 1805 BC Exodus...

Reincarnation is a concept rooted in self-glory and self-seeking. If you don't obtain glory in this current life, you get another try at it in the next life.... You keep re-living over and over until you get it right. The problem is that you will NEVER get it right. Reincarnation is the...

My understanding is that we were created to show God's Glory. We are to reflect His glory. That is our ultimate purpose for existing - To reflect God's glory. Where mankind has went off the rails is because all have choosen to seek their own glory.

Luke 21: 5-9 "Jesus Foretell Destruction of the Temple" Do most here believe these verses talk of destruction of the Second Temple or of a still future temple? Luke 21: 20-24 "Jesus Foretell Destruction of Jerusalem" Do most here believe these verses talk of the First Roman-Jewish Warr...

Interesting. Hebrews 4:3 "Now we who have believed enter that rest, just as God has said, "So I declared on oath in my anger, 'They shall never enter my rest.'" And yet his works have been finished since the creation of the world." How can one enter God's rest if it happened for just one day...

2 Timothy 2:24 And the Lord’s servant must not be quarrelsome but must be kind to everyone, able to teach, not resentful.

Thanks. What did God do on the eighth day?
