@JosiahForYeshua @theocraticking1 Maybe... just maybe... (...) But John tried to deter him, saying, “I need to be baptized by you, and do you come to me?” 15 Jesus replied, “Let it be so now; it is proper for us to do this to fulfill all RIGHTEOUSNESS.” Then John consented. (...) seems likely. Thoughts, folks?

@theocraticking1 Yeah, I don’t see any reason to think that John was the rightful high priest. He was definitely a kohen, though. And as far as I know, even though Caiaphas was appointed by Rome, he was still of Levitical/Aaronic lineage. It was just that Rome decided which kohen was in charge.

I don’t know if John should’ve been High Priest. It is an interesting thought.

@Joel7Richardson Oh, this world is full of gorks for sure! 🤣

True story: About 28 years ago, I was involved in a road rage incident. Both of us got out of our vehicles and were facing each other. He looked at my plates and called me "Missouri trash." Intending to call him a geek, or maybe a dork, adrenaline rushing, I opened my mouth. I called him a "gork." "A gork?" he smirked. But I was committed. "That's right, you gork!" Then I jumped back into my car and fled. In shame.

@grok @helechoenchina @aapayes @grok revisa tu respuesta. En el siglo primero en Judea sucedía el bilingüismo.

Es un meme basado en un encuentro real de 2014 entre Netanyahu y el Papa Francisco. Netanyahu dijo que Jesús hablaba hebreo; el Papa corrigió: "Arameo". Netanyahu replicó que hablaba arameo pero conocía hebreo. Históricamente, el arameo era la lengua cotidiana en Judea del siglo I, mientras el hebreo se usaba en contextos religiosos. El video es una versión editada con efectos humorísticos.

Netanyahu: “Jesús hablaba hebreo”. -Papa Francisco: “Eh, ARAMEO ”. (Verificación: En aquel entonces, la gente hablaba principalmente arameo, no hebreo moderno).

Even most casual Bible readers have heard the story of Elijah mocking the prophets of Baal: “At noon Elijah ridiculed them and said, ‘Call out with a loud voice, since he is a god; undoubtedly he is attending to business, or is on the way, or is on a journey, perhaps he is asleep and will awaken!’” (1 Kings 18:27) One of the more surprising discoveries for me when writing Gospel of the Skull Crusher was how often God Himself deliberately trolls, taunts, and mocks foreign gods and His enemies throughout the Bible. In Deuteronomy 33:26, when God calls Himself The Cloud-Rider, even declaring that no other gods can ride on the clouds, He was flat-out mocking Baal who is literally called “Rider on the Clouds” in the Baal Cycle, a series of mythological Ugaritic texts. Everyone knows that Pharaoh's royal headdress features a prominent cobra just above his brow. So the Lord (through the prophets Isaiah and Ezekiel) goes and refers to Pharaoh as the great sea serpent of the Nile that the Lord slayed and left its body on the beaches of Sinai. Everywhere I looked, I found God trolling other gods and His detractors. This mockery of idols has always made me laugh. “They decorate it with silver and gold; they fasten it with nails and hammers so that it will not totter. They are like a scarecrow in a cucumber field, and they cannot speak; they must be carried, because they cannot walk!" (Jeremiah 10:4–5) Pretty fun and fascinating stuff. And I know I reiterate this point often, but it's a point worth reiterating. The Lord's final belly laugh will be when He responds to the growing anti-Semitic madness by installing His own very Jewish Son on Mount Zion to rule the whole world. “He who sits in the heavens laughs, the Lord scoffs at them.” (Psalm 2:4)

@Joel7Richardson Marvelous!!!

@RonSCantor We need these kind of teachings so bad! Thank you, Ron!

Part 2: ISRAEL, JESUS, AND THE RESTORATION MOTIF—GAL 3:16 Read online at roncantor.com/post/israel-je… Let’s continue to clarify Galatians 3:16. Many adherents of Fulfillment Theology claim that Jesus is the one and only seed of Abraham. They argue that Paul “redefined Israel,” as N. T. Wright puts it, around Jesus, but this view creates serious theological and textual problems—especially in light of Romans 11. Paul writes: “Israel has experienced a hardening in part until the full number of the Gentiles has come in. And in this way all Israel will be saved... for God's gifts and his call (to Israel) are irrevocable." (Rom. 11:25–26, 29) If “Israel” in Galatians 3:16 is redefined as Jesus or the Church, then Paul's entire argument in Romans 11 becomes nonsensical. Who, then, is hardened (v. 25)? Who is restored (v. 26)? Is Jesus hardened? Has the Church fallen away? Paul claims to be an ethnic Israelite (v. 1), but didn’t he write in Galatians 3:16 that Jesus is the only seed exclusive to any other person or group? The early Church wrestled with Paul’s writings. Even Peter noted: “[Paul] writes the same way in all his letters... His letters contain some things that are hard to understand, which ignorant and unstable people distort, as they do the other Scriptures.” (2 Peter 3:16) Thomas Schreiner comments, “The point is not that Paul is unclear, but that some truths are deep and easily misunderstood by those who lack stability and sound doctrine.” [5] Douglas Moo adds “This verse is one of the clearest affirmations in the New Testament that Paul’s letters were already being viewed as Scripture alongside the Old Testament.” [6] Paul often used midrash and typology—a Jewish hermeneutic (interpretive method)—to reveal deeper truths that non-Jews didn't comprehend; hence, Paul is “hard to understand.” For instance, Matthew interprets Hosea 11:1 (“Out of Egypt I called my son”) as a prophecy about Yeshua’s return from Egypt, even though, in context, it clearly refers to Israel coming out of Egypt in the Exodus. This kind of interpretation adds meaning without canceling the original interpretation. Jesus tells us to hate our family members (Luke 14:26). Using hyperbole to make a point was an accepted literary device in Paul’s day and is in ours as well. Hate, in this context, is clearly understood to emphasize our love for Jesus. Craig Keener explains: “The language of ‘hate’ reflects a Semitic expression meaning to love less or put in second place.” [7] Surely Jesus did not want us to actually cut our hands off or gouge out our eyes (Matt. 5:29–30), but was emphasizing the seriousness of sexual sin. Paul is doing something similar in Galatians. He highlights that Yeshua is the ultimate seed—but not the exclusive one. He is the fulfillment of the promise to all who believe, where there is neither Jew nor Gentile (Gal 3:28), but he is not the cancellation of it to ethnic Israel. If the promise was only to Jesus, how did Abraham’s seed ever possess the land? How did David rule? How did Israel remain a people in exile for 2,000 years and return to their land? Clearly, the promise was not voided. The land promise was reaffirmed to Isaac and Jacob (Gen. 26:3; 35:12). Paul affirms these in Romans 3:1–4, 9:4, and 15:8. Paul’s point in Galatians is not about the land—it’s about the basis of covenant inclusion for Gentiles. The Galatians were being pressured to be circumcised to enter Abraham’s covenant. Paul’s response is: You’re already part of the promise—not through circumcision, but through Yeshua. • “All peoples on earth will be blessed through you.” (Gen. 12:3) • “You will be the father of many nations.” (Gen. 17:4) • “Through your offspring all nations on earth will be blessed.” (Gen. 22:18) These point to the global body of Messiah. But Paul never says the Jewish people have been replaced. Revelation confirms their continued role: “Then I heard the number of those who were sealed: 144,000 from all the tribes of Israel.” (Rev. 7:4) In the end, Paul does not redefine Israel—he reveals how Israel’s destiny finds its climax in Messiah, without negating God’s ongoing covenant with the Jewish people. The root remains holy (Rom. 11:16), the branches will be grafted back in (v. 24), and “all Israel will be saved” (v. 26). This is not replacement. It’s restoration. From as early as 49 CE, the enemy has been seeking to seduce the Church into rejecting Israel. This is why Paul wrote Romans. It is why he poured out his heart, wanting them to comprehend God’s longing for Israel to know him through Yeshua. I speak the truth in Messiah—I am not lying, my conscience confirms it through the Holy Spirit—I have great sorrow and unceasing anguish in my heart. For I could wish that I myself were cursed and cut off from Christ for the sake of my people, those of my own race, the people of Israel. (Rom 9:1-4) Dr. Ron Cantor Subscribe at RonCantor.com.

@RonSCantor 🎯🎯🎯🎯🎯

Someone asked if modern Israel is biblical Israel. My answer is below. Let's start here. There are dozens of prophecies in the Hebrew Bible that speak of the restoration of Israel as a nation (Exek 36:24ff). It says it would happen in the end-times (Amos 9:14–15, Ezek 37:21–22). It tells of a mass exodus of Jewish people from a land north of Israel (Jer 16:14-15); Over 1,00,000 Jews return to Israel from the former Soviet Union between 1991-2000. So, what you have to ask yourself is, have these prophecies been fulfilled in the modern nation of Israel? Ethnic Jews, proven by DNA, have gone back to their homeland after 2000 years. There is no example in world history of a nation being separated from its geographical homeland for more than two or three generations and maintaining its ethnic identity--except for Jews/ Israelites/Israelis. (Have you run into any Jebusites or Hitites recently?) If the prophets were not speaking about present-day Israel, then this is one of the most remarkable coincidences in history. Secondly, who are they talking about? Did the church come out of the land of the north? No. Was the church regathered from all over the world back into the land of Israel? No. But the Jewish people were. Even if one spiritualizes those verses to the church, one cannot deny that the physical descendants of Abraham returned to the land promised to him and his descendants forever, and built a nation. One would have to be intellectually dishonest not to see the connection between the prophecies and the fact that there is a nation of Israel today filled with Jewish people. It's a miracle. In Romans 11, Paul clearly states that ethnic Israel has a future. He says they have been temporarily blinded so that the gospel can prosper amongst the nations. But in the end times, the hardness of heart will be removed and "all Israel will be saved." (Rom 11:26). He explains three verses later that the gifts and callings are irrevocable. He is emphatically stating that God's calling on Israel will never be revoked, no matter what Israel does. This is because of God's faithfulness, not Israel's righteousness. Keep reading, please. You don't honor the politicians, you honor the God of Israel. Despite Israel, God has been faithful. See Jer. 31:35-37, where God says specifically that he will not reject Israel for all she has done, and as long as the stars, moon, and sun continue to operate, he will be faithful to Israel. There is faulty reasoning that goes into disqualifying Israel, based on bad behavior. If God were going to disqualify people based on bad behavior, then much of the church would be in very big trouble. But God is gracious. Jesus is still Jewish. After his resurrection, he is referred to as the seed of David (Rom 1:3), and in Revelation 5:5 as the line of the tribe of Judah and Root of David. According to Zechariah 14:3-4, he will return to the Mount of Olives. That's where he left from, and the angel said he would return in the same way. Rev. 1:7 says that when he comes, every eye will see him, even those who pierced him… Which is very similar to Zechariah 12:10, which speaks of the Jewish people realizing that the one they pierced is the Messiah. The problem many people have is that they look at someone like Netanyahu and see him as an unsavory character, and think, "How can that be biblical Israel?" biblical Israel had people far worse than Netanyahu as leaders, such as a Ahab and Jezebel and Manasseh, who "did evil in the eyes of the LORD." But according to Paul, that did not disqualify the entire nation (Rom 11:29). There are unsavory politicians all over the world. In America. In Israel. Certainly in Russia. Honoring Israel is about loving God and believing in his faithfulness and that Jesus is literally returning to Jerusalem. He was faithful to his promises to Israel. Loving Israel is about believing for her salvation, and contending for it, recognizing that Israel was blinded so that the gospel could come to Gentiles. They suffered so the nations could be saved. In Matthew 23:39 he tells the Jews of Jerusalem that he will not return until they welcome him as Messiah. How can they do that if there are no Jews in Jerusalem or if there's no Jerusalem? I am an Israeli, and I criticize my own government. I don't give them a free pass because we are a modern fulfillment of prophecy. I believe that October 7 happened because we allowed a racist element into our government. I prophesied that a month before it happened (not in detail). When Israel was chosen in the Old Testament, God would bring judgments upon her. Israel is still chosen today, but when we are bad, there are consequences. Still, if you're going to be intellectually honest, there's no other explanation for the creation of the state of Israel in 1948 other than biblical prophecy. The existence of Jewish people today is a miracle based on science. As stated above, there's no other example of people being separated from their geographical homeland and remaining a people. The fact that we are on a tiny sliver of land outnumbered more than 99 to 1 by those who would be our enemies, and we have been able to win every war, is a miracle. The Six-Day War was a miracle, where we were vastly outnumbered, but defeated three nations in six days. In conclusion, yes, modern-day Israel is what God was referring to when he spoke about the restoration of Israel in the Hebrew Bible. But this does not mean that Israel gets a free pass on anything we do. If anything, we are more accountable to God because we have the Scriptures.
