| Dec 24, 2020 at 21:10 | comment | added | Nigel J | @Dottard The bible does not say 'the handwriting of the debt . . . then in ordinances. That is not what the Greek says. The 'it' refers to the handwriting. The ordinances were written down. And it was nailed to the cross. | |
| Dec 24, 2020 at 21:08 | comment | added | Dottard | @NigelJ - I did not say it did mean that sin. I did say that "handwriting" means the certificate of debt. The handwriting of the debt IN the ordinances. Col 2:14 says: having canceled the debt ascribed to us in the decrees that stood against us. He took it away, nailing it to the cross! "it is singular" "ordinances" is plural. The "it" cannot refer to the ordinances. | |
| Dec 24, 2020 at 21:04 | comment | added | Nigel J | @Dottard Nowhere - absolutely nowhere in scripture - does δογμασιν mean sin or debt. The word does not mean that. The fact that, traditionally, many wish to be 'teachers of the law' who 'know not what they say or affirm' does not change that fact. | |
| Dec 24, 2020 at 21:01 | comment | added | Dottard | @NigelJ - that is exactly what it means - look at Thayer and BDB and anything else. It is the debt of sin that is described in those ordinances | |
| Dec 24, 2020 at 20:59 | comment | added | Nigel J | @Dottard χειρογραφον τοις δογμασιν 'handwriting in the dogmata . . . decrees/ordinances. It cannot possibly mean 'sins' or 'debts'. | |
| Dec 24, 2020 at 20:56 | comment | added | Nigel J | Yes indeed. Agreed. Up-voted +1. | |
| Dec 24, 2020 at 19:59 | comment | added | Dottard | "it" that was nailed to the cross is the handwriting of debt - our sin! | |
