Sep 13, 2022 at 21:17 comment added Ray Butterworth @NigelJ, I would like to thank the Honourable Member for proving my point.
Sep 13, 2022 at 20:43 comment added Nigel J @RayButterworth As they say in the House of Commons - I refer the Honourable Member to the comment I made earlier. Any sensible evaluation of the Old Testament scriptures leads, inevitably, to the New Testament scriptures. Such has God, the Holy Spirit, spoken.
Sep 13, 2022 at 18:31 comment added Ray Butterworth @NigelJ, I can't find it but I remember a great post by Monica Cellio about why Hermeneutics.SE had failed and why she had to leave (long before the other controversy). Basically the site was intended for Christians, Jews, Muslims, Atheists, or anyone else to ask hermeneutics questions. Unless a question indicates otherwise, questions about Leviticus should be answered in a way that should be acceptable to all. Responding with an answer that doesn't directly relate to the question and context should be unacceptable. Jews and Hebrew scholars don't want to be told that everything is about Jesus.
Sep 13, 2022 at 17:06 comment added Nigel J @RayButterworth Hermeneutics is about examining the entire text of scripture with consistency and with balanced consideration of all its parts. I disagree with your view of hermeneutics generally and I disagree with your comment about this website.

Sep 13, 2022 at 14:30 comment added Ray Butterworth @NigelJ, The question is about specific verses in Leviticus, not about Christian doctrine. (That comment is an example of why this site failed so badly at its original mandate. Steve Taylor's answer is an example of how such things should be handled.)

Aug 29, 2022 at 22:33 comment added Dottard Why do you believe that a sign of success was even necessary? It was accepted by faith.
Aug 29, 2022 at 14:56 comment added Dan Fefferman the question seems limited to Lev. 16, for which the answer is "no." However in other cases it was clearly yes.
Aug 29, 2022 at 12:11 comment added Nigel J The figure is not 'successful' or 'unsuccessful'. It is merely a figure. It is a ritual to be performed in lieu of the only effective sacrifice - Jesus Christ. It is not possible that the blood of bulls and goats could take away sins Hebrews 10:4.
