    You still haven’t engaged the actual evidence.
    You’re reacting to translations and modern opinions, not to the manuscripts, not to the pre‑Christian Jewish sources, and not to the logic of Hebrews itself.

    Let’s go point by point.

    No, I’m reading the words written and the words written, don’t match…can’t have the 60+ different interpretations in front of me at all times. I’m comparing your translation of choice (NASB) to the Jewish Study Bible. If you need to justify your belief by using a translation that has fallen into obscuri…[Read more]

    @Keith,

    Desire truth. Psalm 45:7 did not call Jesus Elohim, It stated that he has an Elohim( God)

    “You love justice and hate evil. For this reason God, your God has anointed you with the oil of joy, elevating you above your companions.”

    Who is the “you” that is being anointed? The Jesus??? If so, you’re going have to tell me when the Jesus is…[Read more]

    @Lightenup,

    In response to post 948115, would you like some cheese with your whine?

    When you answer every question I ask, then you’ll have grounds to stand on to lecture me! Besides, does reading and comprehension fail you? I originally stated “I initially started a long response to what you said, but abandoned it.” What part of that do you N…[Read more]

    You said this

    “So The true God=Jehovah gave Jesus(Word) authority. If Jesus were God he would already have had the authority.”

    If within the unity of Jehovah there is one God and one Lord who are a father and son, then one can expect that the son would be perfectly under the authority of the father if it were a perfect father/son rel…[Read more]

    Jesus isn’t any kind of God. Small g god carries the meaning-has godlike qualities, it is not calling that one God as 2 Cor 4:4 plainly shows when satan is called god.

    “You missed that theos in 2 Corinthians 4:4 does have the article — but the presence or absence of the article never determines whether theos refers to the true God or a false god. Greek doesn’t work that way. The article marks specificity, not deity.”

    You didn’t address anything I wrote.
    You simply repeated your conclusion: “Hebrews isn’t about Jesus.”
    But you didn’t engage a single textual point.

    Let’s be clear about what actually happened in your reply:

    1. You did not answer the Septuagint issue.
    Every “corruption” you claimed was shown to be the LXX wording — the Jewish Sc…[Read more]

    @Lightenup,

    I initially started a long response to what you said, but abandoned it. I will say this in response to what you wrote, in none of your response did you address the core issue; nothing written in Hebrews chapter one is about the Jesus! It’s a twisting of the Hebrew scripture to fit the Jesus.

    When have you looked into the Jewish…[Read more]

    There are 2 spots in NT where more than 1 is called God or god-John 1:1-2Cor 4:4– At both spots the true God is called Ho Theos=The God–Both the Word and satan are called Theos=god in this scenario. Trinity error has God to the Word and god to satan, it cannot be translated both ways. It is 100% undeniable fact god is correct for both the Word…[Read more]

    @DesireTruth

    Your entire critique rests on a single assumption that is historically false:

    You are comparing Hebrews to the medieval Masoretic Text (MT), finalized around 900–1000 AD.
    Hebrews is quoting the Septuagint (LXX), the Jewish Scriptures used in the first century.
    Every “corruption” you think you see is simply the LXX wording, not a Chr…[Read more]

    @ lightenup,

    You understand Psalm 102 perfectly; why are you corrupting the meaning of it by applying it to the Jesus? It seems you are using the Hebrews 1:10-12 passage to claim G-d of the Tanakh and the Jesus of the NT are the same. To unpack what is being said in this chapter one needs to begin in verse 5, where this dialog begins? G-d is…[Read more]

    @Berean,

    Wow what an intellectual response; you have made me more aware of who the jesus is…loads of sarcasm!

    I explained the passage, how come you can’t give your thoughts on it? Repeating the words of the passages DOES NOT EXPLAIN HOW THE PASSAGE IS A REFERENCE TO THE jESUS!!!! How do you NOT understand that?!? Why does the “christian” h…[Read more]

    This is a simple proverb; why make everything complicated? Now it’s your turn to explain how this passage relates to the Jesus.

    @DesireTruth

    In Psalm 102, the thing that “will be rolled up like a garment” is the created order itself—the heavens and the earth. Psalm 102:25–26 says that the heavens are the work of God’s hands, and that they “will perish,” and “will all wear out like a garment.”

    Not Proverbs 30…AGAIN!!!

    Have you not read the passage with comprehension? Are we really using “pointy fingers” without explaining what you’re talking about?!!!?

    @Lightenup,

    I guess you kind of answered the question of who or what will be rolled up; but who or what is the “they”? If it’s simply heaven and earth as the Psalm says, what is the writer of Hebrews getting at? The Psalm is speaking of G-d lasting longer than HIS creation as HE is eternal AND what does this have to do with the Jesus?
