Bible Typology

[Theland]

Does anybody feel interested in Bible typology?
Do you understand it as a way of unlocking the Bible?

I'm really not familiar with Jewish Midrash and other writings and modes of writings in first century Palenstine.

Please, continue.

Ah, I see Douglas. Sorry
In the words of the infamous Biblical Scholar...
Look it up yourself. Its all on you tube ;-)

[nailit]

But you already knew that... ;-)

//Put a T on the end. That's me! //
Took me a while to twig on, lol. That's quiet funny. Naomis right Theland, your're wasted on here with that sense of humour!

Nailit - Thinking of getting my shoulder length hair cut.

There! I've thought about it.

Answer - NO.

[nailit]

//Nailit - Midrash? Yes. //
And yet a few weeks ago I mentioned John Shelby Spong...and his ideas about New Testament Midrash and you rejected it and called Spong something really derogatory.
Double standards???

Crosby Stills Nash And Young - album, Deja Vu.

"Almost cut my hair,
It happened just the other day,
Getting kind of long.
Could have thought it was in my way,
But I didn't,
And I wonder why?
Think I wanna let my freak flag fly,

I feel it,
Like I owe it,
To someone.

[Theland]

Spong? Give me a break!
Need to refresh.

Hello...we have another Sampson on our hands!!!
Get out quick, the temple is falling....Thelands here!

[nailit]

//Spong? Give me a break! //
An expert on Jewish Midrash.
How long a break do you need?

[Theland]

Anyway, if you are an atheist, and actually hate the God you don't believe in, like Dawkins, why waste your precious time on this subject?

[Theland]

I have a life outside of Answerbank.
This is not a compulsion. That OK with you?

[nailit]

//if you are an atheist, and actually hate the God you don't believe in//

WHAT???
Where on earth has that nonsense come from?
I no more hate 'The God that I dont believe in'
any more than I hate the santa that I dont believe in.

[Theland]

The. Why not spend as much time and energy denigrating Santa?

[nailit]

//I have a life outside of Answerbank.
This is not a compulsion. That OK with you? //

Blimey,
Thought that *I* had a few mental health issues to deal with.
Nothing compared to you mate.
No its not a compulsion, yes its OK with me and I too have a life outside of Answerbank.
Apologies for asking you to defend your faith.
Sleep well.

[nailit]

//Why not spend as much time and energy denigrating Santa?//
Because no one spends so much time defending his existance.
FF S!

Spong - A dangerous and misled apostate, educated beyond the levels of his own intelligence.
Don't mention to me again, he is a fool, and a sad one.

How many of his books have you actually read?

[Theland]

At 22:55 you insulted me for no reason whatsoever, calling into question my mental health.
Thank you for that. J

[nailit]

How many of Spong's books have you read?
@23:04 you called Spong
A dangerous and misled apostate, educated beyond the levels of his own intelligence a fool, and a sad one.

Thanks for that....
