Agile is the substance of features planned for, the avoidance of milestones unseen.

Nov 1	comment	Is the man in Daniel's vision in Daniel 10 Jesus? Due to my religious background, I say "no".
Nov 1	comment	Psalm 23 - long long pursuit of the house of the LORD ישב does not translate directly to "live". It denotes staying, resting, sitting, reprieve, residing. - I shall dwell in the house of the LORD for prolonging of days - should be an equally legitimate translation. Why should translators spoil my days (pun intended) by interpreting it.
Nov 1	comment	Psalm 23 - long long pursuit of the house of the LORD I believe that translations of the Bible should exclude interpretation as much as possible. They should translate it as "prolonged days" and leave it to the reader to interpret whatever that means.
Nov 1	comment	Psalm 23 - long long pursuit of the house of the LORD The modern meaning - morfix.co.il/en/%D7%9E%D7%A2%D7%92%D7%9C
Nov 1	comment	Psalm 23 - long long pursuit of the house of the LORD I'm kind of obstinately clinging on to the idea that מעגל denotes a constraint whether a path, track, trench, encampment, plan, strategy. Like the sanskrit word karma (not the religious meaning) - an available course or existence guided/constrained by stuffs around us. In fact, I am so tempted to translate it as "He marshals me in karma of righteousness".
Oct 28	comment	Isaiah 1:18 white washing the scarlet? Could you answer Q4, too? Thank you.
Oct 28	comment	Isaiah 1:18 white washing the scarlet? So the sin as described in itself inherently contains a purification agent? So that sin is necessary to make a person whole?
Oct 19	comment	A woman is not to put on a man's dress? So, a woman should not try to be dominant/valiant but demure?
Oct 19	comment	What does 1 Corinthians 9:27 literally say? Paul sounds very paganistic - penance himself by punishing himself violently.
Oct 19	comment	Why did the Law of Moses tolerate polygyny (polygamy) but not polyandry? This is a really condescending long winded opinion - condescending on Jews who share the same portion of scriptures. No, Jesus has never been and will never be our "husband".
Oct 19	comment	A woman is not to put on a man's dress? Off topic - why are fundamentalists often are at each other's throats accusing each other of "false teachings"? Just curious.
Oct 7	comment	What does it mean that the least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than John the Baptist? I would like to add that Jethro(father-in-law of Moses) and Jesus advocated that representative Democracy in its purest form is the kingdom of heaven.
Oct 7	comment	Satan: Stumbling Block or Accuser? Your answer is so much more reasonable and precise.
Oct 3	comment	Does “foundations of the earth” in Job 38:4 refer to just the earth, or is it a metaphor for more? I think the Hebrew compound word refers to "founding of the earth" rather than the "foundation of the earth".
Oct 3	comment	Satan: Stumbling Block or Accuser? I don't find your Hebrew etymology of the word accepted anywhere. I don't trust Christian derived evolution/derivation of the word. I must need more education on this word - and I cannot trust Christian sources.
Sep 30	comment	Satan: Stumbling Block or Accuser? “enemy” is very different from “adversary”. As much as an unflinching tyrant is very different from a merciless prosecutor. So is a "devil" different from the "satan".
Sep 30	comment	Does Romans 13:8 include a prohibition of taking loans? So too, this generation is (and many generations have been) living in heightened messianic expectation. So much so, that many messianic expectators/spectators have indulged in despoiling the environment believing that there is no point in conserving the planet - nonchalantly consequently killing millions thro climate change because a messiah is coming to repair the planet and because their messiah says that they will always have the poor.
Sep 28	comment	Psalms 46 - Be still or relax? "Could you pair down the question" - Pare down.
Sep 5	comment	Why the human brain is never mentioned in the Bible? It was reverse-sarcasm.
Sep 5	comment	Why the human brain is never mentioned in the Bible? If the Bible is true, it should have given us Relativity, super-luminal travel, the map of the galaxy, reason why my toe itches for 15 seconds b4 I sleep, etc.
