I’m sorry I wasn’t clear. When I see translations that include both the Pentateuch and New Testament, the translations of the Pentateuch are often wildly off the mark. That makes the entire source dubious from my perspective. YMMV.
I see. Well the Interlinear Bible like I mentioned has the original Hebrew for the Old Testament and Greek for the New. IE it's completely untranslated except for a word-for-word translation to English. Pic related
Jesus would have known some vulgar Latin as it was the language to learn if you dealt with the Romans. Not much mind you but enough to know a few words and phrases. But yeah his language would have been ancient Hebrew and Aramaic.
Of even better still, tell him that the God of the Muslims is the same God he himself worships. Judaism, Christianity and Islam are three religions that grew from the same source. If you've actually read the Quran it starts exactly like the OT does. And the OT? The first five books are literally the same as the first five books of the Hebrew bible or Tanakh.
But often times these conspiracies go off the rails and go beyond what actually happened. It's why I always say the best lies have a kernel of truth in them. But it doesn't mean that everything in them is real.
It's funny because I always thought walnut halves had a very "brain" like appearance.
Fixed:
Jack's Sunday school homework growing up:
If he were his entire neighborhood would join the Jehova's Witness protection program.
You got it a bit mixed up. The Tanakh is the complete Hebrew Bible (the same books as the OT), the first five are the Torah
But that is translation. I’m sure, for example, it erroneously translates almah to virgin. Unfortunately, starting with Genesis 3:15 I could list literally hundreds of inaccurate translations like this that are presented as reliable but make the entire interpretation exegetically untenable.
Jesus was also American and looked like Ted Nugent.
I've always been a bit fond of the likely unfounded belief that certain foods we eat resemble human organs that are specifically benefited by those foods. Walnuts, the brain. Tomatoes, the left and right ventricle of the heart. There are some stupid ones though like a quick google search asserts that avocados resemble the uterus and citrus fruits, the female breast. What?!
Lol I meant almah. My bad.
But the Torah makes up the first five books of the Tanakh. And the Tanakh is the whole thing. So I'm not wrong. You just misread what I wrote.
The word for avocado in Aztec is "testicle". It's also down to the shape and the fact they hang in pairs from the tree:
As opposed to betula. This is what I meant when I said a young woman became a virgin.
All of the OT books are in the Tanakh, just in a different order
So the reason I keep using the term Pentateuch is that Torah is used as a much more broad descriptor that encompasses the Written Torah, the Mishna, Gemara, Midrashim, and commentaries throughout history. The book we read the weekly Torah portion from (in Hebrew and English) is called a Chumash and the extensive footnotes are extremely illuminating (and often challenging!). Maybe that’s why I was so gobsmacked by Jack insisting there is no room for discussion of Scripture. It’s just antithetical to my lifetime of experience of learning in general, and the daily and weekly experience of learning the week’s parsha. Below is a page from the Or HaChaim’s lengthy commentary on Vayikra (Leviticus) 16:1-18:30. All those footnotes and debates for millennia were unnecessary or hazardous, depending on how you read Jack’s dismissal of Scripture discussion. It just boggles the mind. I genuinely can’t imagine living like that.
That's because it's a protestant doctrine that he's blindly swallowed. Sola Scriptura, "by scripture alone", a doctrine invented largely by John Wycliffe and expanded on by Martin Luther that boils down to no magisterium has the authority to expand on scripture even by commentaries. A lot of modern American protestants expand this to only being personal interpretation, though they'll also supplement this with bible study or (way more often) listening to their grifter pastor ramble about prosperity and/or dispensationalism for an hour on Sunday.
So why does Jack bother going to murder churches and megachurches to hear some asshole blaspheme by daring to comment on scripture? Shouldn't the Bible be all he needs?
Sadly, he stuffed all his bibles into the walls/foundation of his McHouse.
Holy fuck, I didn’t realize this wasn’t just a Jack Scalfani thing. I’ll stop talking about it because I don’t want to offend anyone here who holds by that. Jack is the only person I wish to offend.
I'm gonna have to do a rare agreement with Jacko here, there's nothing I loathe more than seeing people jump through hoops to self-censor just to please algorithms. Youtube is just the worst. Either say retard/faggot/cunt, or don't. Enough with the halfway measures. Saying nigger is an art form in and of itself.
