And again.......
We're all in the DSM 5 book somewhere. OCD was my kryptonite.ATM I'm being treated for adult ADHD
Maybe check out the Torah as well.Very interesting, really. I've never read the Quran. I am going on Amazon today and ordering one.
I've also though about reading the Book of Mormon.
I have only seen exerts of the Torah. That's another interesting one. At this point I'm more interested in the Hebrew bible than the KJV or any of the others. If I understand right the Torah is the Hebrew bible.Torah
Moses wrote the five books.I have only seen exerts of the Torah. That's another interesting one. At this point I'm more interested in the Hebrew bible than the KJV or any of the others. If I understand right the Torah is the Hebrew bible.
I've always been interested but now especially after reading "Gods of the Bible" by Mauro Biglino. According to a direct translation there is more than one god. Hebrew in very difficult to read but I can recognize maybe a half dozen.
You would have to be more stone than flesh to not choke on that one. My experience wasn't that bad, but try explaining circumcision to a 9 yo boy's class. Time to call the preacher in.Awkward!
Can you imagine asking your Sunday school teacher the meaning of this verse!
Ezekiel 23:20
There she lusted after her lovers, whose genitals were like those of donkeys and whose emission was like that of horses.

Is that the complete book?Moses wrote the five books.
It's the five books of the Hebrew bible.Is that the complete book?
I was many years ago and now I'm not sure what it was. As I remember it was book of the Jewish religion. But now I don't remember what it was.Maybe check out the Torah as well.
I'm curious about the (don't know quite how is ask this) about the English version. Is the verbage used. I guess I'm trying to ask is if a Christian and a Jew are discussing the first five COULD a Christian and a Jew find agreement using text they are used to?Ma
Maybe check out the Torah as well.
bro ezekiel 23 starts by saying there were two daughters of one mother, its an allegory. Its about Oholah (Sumaria) and Oholibah (Israel) with the emphasis on the relationship that Israel had to its neighboring nations (see verse 4) goes onto say about Samaria in verse 10 They uncovered her nakedness. Took away her sons and daughters, means that Samaria was captured by the Assirians in 722 B.C.nations

In the bible, god himself acknowledges that there are other gods when he says have no other gods before me. It's early but I can remember the names baal, asherah and molech as being deities. There is mention of others but I'd have to look them up.I have only seen exerts of the Torah. That's another interesting one.

Maybe he used the NIV bible (https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=ezekiel 23&version=NIV)bro ezekiel 23 starts by saying there were two daughters of one mother, its an allegory. Its about Oholah (Sumaria) and Oholibah (Israel) with the emphasis on the relationship that Israel had to its neighboring nations (see verse 4) goes onto say about Samaria in verse 10 They uncovered her nakedness. Took away her sons and daughters, means that Samaria was captured by the Assirians in 722 B.C.
Then in chapter 11, it talks about Israel how she lusted after the neighboring Assyrians, which means she entered into a political alliance with them.
not saying that some translations dont say that just that there is no mention of genitals in my bible NKJV at 23. 20 just says...
23.20 For she (Israel) lusted for her paramours. (Means someone you having an improper relationship with)
And whos issue is like the issue of horses
explanation...
Ezekiel 23:20
For she doted upon their paramours
Or "concubines" F26; the neighbouring nations and allies of the Egyptians, whose friendship the Jews courted, and whose idols they served: the Septuagint and Arabic versions wrongly read the Chaldeans: whose flesh is as the flesh of asses, and whose issue is like the issue
of horses;
by "flesh" is meant the "membrum virile", which in asses is very large, and therefore dedicated to Priapus by the Heathens; and vast is the profusion of seed in coitus by horses, to which the flesh and issue of the Egyptian paramours are compared; who were very libidinous, and therefore desirable to insatiable women; all which serves to express the eagerness of the people of the Jews after idolatry.
Yeah,Maybe he used the NIV bible (https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=ezekiel 23&version=NIV)
"19 Yet she became more and more promiscuous as she recalled the days of her youth, when she was a prostitute in Egypt. 20 There she lusted after her lovers, whose genitals were like those of donkeys and whose emission was like that of horses. 21 So you longed for the lewdness of your youth, when in Egypt your bosom was caressed and your young breasts fondled.[c]"
Problem being....no proofIt's the five books of the Hebrew bible.
Is there another book, or writing the centers around the prophets? That might have been the one.It's the five books of the Hebrew bible.
This is EXACTLY how people should talk about the Bible. Not just quote verses. Explanations like this are really worth reading and that's the way things should be presented, with substance. Good work.bro ezekiel 23 starts by saying there were two daughters of one mother, its an allegory.

in 1958 I questioned Dean O. T.Brown, of California Baptist College (now University) about this exact same thing, including some of names. His answer was, "Just believe it".In the bible, god himself acknowledges that there are other gods when he says have no other gods before me. It's early but I can remember the names baal, asherah and molech as being deities. There is mention of others but I'd have to look them up.
This is one of things I was talking about before. If it's in the earliest writings it should be in the Bible now. You don't take things out or, change them, just they because are hard to say or whatever, even if it sounds a little "gross".not saying that some translations dont say that just that there is no mention of genitals in my bible NKJV at 23. 20 just says...
