Not exactly. There's only one time recorded as someone being given talents that were not worked to obtain and even then it's kinda "iffy" at best. You can claim that the desire to obtain those talents were a gift from God....but otherwise it's always the old fashioned way by working. And...

Ummmmm I don't think you even know what you are talking about. Do you know who the Masoretes are? Their role in history? Who they are today to Jews? And how they have been proven by the Dead Sea Scrolls? Stop with the false accusations Because you don't know what they did. Do you know...

Sometimes, The scriptures ARE a secret code that needs to be deciphered. When Jesus said "My flesh is real meat and my blood real drink" he did not and was not suggesting cannibalism. Although the Jews believed that this was precisely what he meant. And today this is the Catholic tradition...

Sinaiticus is full of errors as it is Pre Jerome. Mostly because it was not transcribed by Jews. The Jews had much more rigid procedures for transcribing scriptures. And for the Jews the goyim translations were heretical. A 4th century Septuagint is going to be Jerome's original...

Okay....well that would be the Latin Vulgate translations group....and there were 4 main variations of that one. If you are trying to understand the Oxford/Cambridge Translation into English that's going to again revolve as the Latin Vulgate. But that's a century earlier. The RSV is coming...

When the Hellenistic but devout Jews were expelled from Italy sure they appeared in Jerusalem and surrounding areas....but the Aramaic Tenakh was primarily used and the Greek was considered to be Goyim and impure. The Aramaic also had Targums. The Septuagint did not. Also Bethgashepher...

There are many out there for download. Which one do you wish for? Pre Jerome or post Jerome?

Oil as a base for the sauce in pasta is not really something most people enjoy. The closest that olive oil is used as a base is with pesto where the olive oil is used to help make the chopped herbs more liquid and lea the herb flavors onto the pasta. It requires a LOT of herbs. Chiefly basil...

Ok.... Here we go. With a hot pan and cold oil Sautee the seafood. Once the seafood is sautéed I would place some finely diced shallots in the remaining oil until done (couple seconds up to a minute and half) Then degaze the fond (remaining dried juices) with some chablis. (Dry white wine of...

Uhhhh Not much oil gets used in this dish. Certainly not something that nice. High end olive oil is a finishing oil. Used for flavor after the dish is finished. And this dish requires finess and timing. You have to be used to using and cooking these expensive ingredients.... The...

Anybody ever been a "Beta Reader" for an aspiring author before?

Probably got some Harvy's cream sherry in it. (Great in seafood) or possibly some Annisette. (Licorice liquor) The Calabrian Chilies give it the heat. The butter sauce likely has a touch of heavy cream and the seasoned bread crumbs (parmesean or other dry, hard cheese) will toast up brown to...

I get it... But if I may introduce some more complete details that are left out of this discussion. First, Nicodemus was not scared for people to know that he was a fan of Jesus. Early Night time is social hour in Israel. Calling on people to be friendly is extremely common. Daytime is...
