Nov 26	comment	What hermeneutical approach does Hebrews use on the Old Testament I think in some places certainly the NT authors may have used OT language the way we might use Shakespeare or another author today--not necessarily as proof of our assertions, but as familiar language to couch them in. (Probably not in this case, though.)
Nov 26	comment	What hermeneutical approach does Hebrews use on the Old Testament I'm not sure I understand the discrepancy you're seeing here; to me it looks like the statements are not inconsistent. If Psalm 2 is about the king God appointed, and calls that king his son, what is wrong with saying in one place that he was appointed by God, and in another place that that he is God's son? Can you clarify?

Nov 26	comment	Synthesizing Differing Translations of Proverbs 18:24 I suppose the KJV only looks like 'in order to have friends, one must be friendly' -- in the plain language of it though, if a man who has friends must show himself friendly, presumably there's a reason why he must and a consequence of what happens if he doesn't. (Presumably, offending any could cause them all to turn against you--except perhaps those 'sticking closer than a brother'.)

Nov 23	comment	What happened to the 500 witnesses in 1 Corinthians 15? As to 'arbitrarily large', he does say "more than five hundred", so he's just rounding.
Nov 18	comment	Does 1st Kings say that pi = 3? @Dancek The same argument could be used for a protruding brim; I just had in mind the thickness of the sea itself. The argument is probably the same for any shape that takes into account the thickness as well as the circumference and diameter given.

Nov 17	comment	What is the meaning of “calculate” in Revelation 13:18? "δεκαέξι" is Modern Greek. The Ancient Greek would be ἑξκαίδεκα ('hexkaideka', literally 'six and ten').
