| Jul 19, 2021 at 21:09 | comment | added | Lesley | @MigueldeServet - I rest my case. You do realise I am asking Ron jackson to provide hermeneutical support to back up his opinion, and that I do not agree with him? | |
| Jul 19, 2021 at 17:45 | comment | added | Miguel de Servet | @Lesley I want biblical support for the assertion that Job and his children will live forever on the earth, and that somewhere (presumably in Genesis) <s>that</s> God said to Adam before he ate of the fruit that he would live forever on the earth. The only “support” you will find is Gen 2:16-17, and it is formulated negatively. | |
| Jul 18, 2021 at 21:10 | comment | added | Lesley | @MigueldeServet - You misunderstand. I want biblical support for the assertion that Job and his children will live forever on the earth, and that somewhere (presumably in Genesis) that God said to Adam before he ate ofthe fruit that he would live forever on the earth. Claims have to backed up by evidence. It is not the hope of a resurrection of the dead that is in question here. | |
| Jul 18, 2021 at 16:59 | comment | added | Miguel de Servet | @Lesley - You are insisting for some “biblical support” of the faith in the resurrection. The point of the NET footnote is that, for Job, that faith is a certainty. For himself AND for his dead children. | |
| Jul 15, 2021 at 16:51 | comment | added | Lesley | @Ron jackson - I don't mean to be unkind, because you are a new contributor, but can you please provide supporting evidence (from the Bible) to back up your statement about Job and his children "living forever on the earth, just as God had said to Adam before he ate of the fruit." And was Job short-changed, or not? | |
| Jul 15, 2021 at 16:49 | comment | added | Lesley | @MigueldeServet - The issue with this answer is not that "if there was life after death, Job would long for his release – his death." (from the link you gave). The issue with this answer is the unsubstantiated interpretation about ALL OF THEM (Job's children) AND JOB LIVING FOREVER ON THE EARTH. However, given some people believe Job is a fictional story, then the idea of a future resurrection from the dead to life on earth would need to have biblical support to back it up, don't you think? Otherwise it's just somebody's idea. And I'm not sure it answers the question. | |
| Jul 15, 2021 at 8:57 | comment | added | Miguel de Servet | The footnotes appended by NET Bible to Job 14:14 are perfectly adequate. | |
| Jul 15, 2021 at 7:05 | comment | added | Lesley | Job asks (14:14) "If a man dies, will he live again?" To support the view that "Job was sure that the first 10 would come back the same way (to add to the other 10) ALL OF THEM AND JOB LIVING FOREVER ON THE EARTH" then biblical evidence is required to back up that view. Personal opinions are fine, but that's not what hermeneutics is about. | |
