    Septuagint

    I understand how the Septuagint compares with the DSS. There has been two men who have translated a singular Greek manuscript into English. This seems to be the source of the Septuagint for the last two hundred years. One of the men was Charles Thompson, the first Secretary of the Continental...

    Septuagint

    I would ask, when, and where your Septuagint has originated from. Does it have a chain of evidence? If it is a conglomerate, what are those manuscripts?

    The book of Job, my favorite book.

    Ian took my home of 20 years, but Helene and Milton were not so bad. Yes I have power back as of Saturday. The main take away from Deuteronomy 32 is that Moses gave credit to God. Deu 32:1-3 Give ear, O ye...

    Septuagint

    awelight greetings, sorry I never replied to your post. The Septuagint, as originally written, does not exist today. The Greek Orthodox Church never had its own bible. They used only their liturgy as the source of the Word of God. They claim their liturgy is based on the Septuagint, but that...

    Septuagint text---Isaiah 9:6 For a child is born to us, and a son is given to us, whose government is upon his shoulder: and his name is called the Messenger of great counsel: for I will bring peace upon the princes, and health to him.

    The book of Job, my favorite book.

    A person ought to choose his friends wisely. I don't know that I have any friend that would sit in silence for seven days, and seven nights, upon the ground. Job had one thing right. Job said, God had sent them to testify against Job.

    The book of Job, my favorite book.

    So Job had thoughts that he didn't know God could hear? You are referring to the last chapter, when Job repented and received salvation. Prior to that he was without knowledge. I knew an Orthodox Jew from Brooklyn who could quote scripture better than most, but he didn't understand scripture...

    The book of Job, my favorite book.

    Not according to Job. Job 7:20 I have sinned; what shall I do unto thee, O thou preserver of men? why hast thou set me as a mark against thee, so that I am a burden to myself? Job 9:13 If God will not withdraw his anger, the proud helpers do stoop under him. Job 9:17 For he breaketh me with...

    The book of Job, my favorite book.

    Bruce, it sounds like you are saying great sin does not cause great suffering, but isn't that perception false according to the Bible? Gen 18:20 And the LORD said, Because the cry of Sodom and Gomorrah is great, and because their sin is very grievous; Exo 32:33 And the LORD said unto Moses...

    The book of Job, my favorite book.

    Job said, Job 3:1 After this opened Job his mouth, and cursed his day. Job 3:19 The small and great are there; and the servant is free from his master. (Job wanted to be free from God.) Job 9:17 For he breaketh me with a tempest, and multiplieth my wounds without cause. Job 9:2I know it is...

    The book of Job, my favorite book.

    How many times have you heard sermons preached on Job, when a family is suffering some loss? The story is always, look at poor Job, he suffered without cause. The purpose is to try and ease the suffering. You have been indoctrinated; you have become blind to what the word is saying. For Job to...
