Goals The goal of apologetics is to strengthen the faith of Christians and attract others to the gospel. IF IT'S THE TRUTH' WHY apologist /əˈpɒlədʒɪst/ noun a person who offers an argument in defence of something controversial. I HOPE GIVE IT TO ME.
Why couldn't you study for yourself? Who wrote the gospels? Who said who wrote the gospels? When? Influences? Why would a perfect God change his covenant? Who, in the 1st and 2nd century, would have a motive to demoralize the Jewish people? How did mailing letter work in the 1st and 2nd centuries? Who compiled the letters of Paul across all those countries/cities/churches? Who, outside the New Testament, attests to the information? Who, outside the New Testament, quotes Matthew? When? Mark? When? Luke? When? John? When? Paul? When? Who are the early Church Fathers? What was their socioeconomic status? Motives? Much more...
That was an awesome episode! Thank you so much for having Wes Huff on your show. I love how he explains things with such eloquence and yet, so simply. For someone as knowledgeable and well-versed, it's refreshing to see such humility. Praise King Jesus for the spread of true Christianity, extending His love to people from every nationality, people, tribe and tongue. Praying for you and wishing you all the best.
The real issue in the historical context is cultural Christians compared to those that have had a real relationship with The Christ. On the surface they look alike but the fruit (Actions) reflect a different story.
King Gezo of formerly Dahomey,now Benin, said in the 1840's he would do anything the British wanted him to do apart from giving up slave trade: "The slave trade is the ruling principle of my people. It is the source and the glory of their wealth…the mother lulls the child to sleep with notes of triumph over an enemy reduced to slavery…"
Jesus Christ was a perfect example of how we're supposed to live, the best role model and leader we could hope for. Sadly, we are only human and still make mistakes.

Wes exposing Billy Carson, who has led Christians astray- and seemingly, knowingly- is what brought me to him. I don't think it's by accident. Huff helps to educate and validate the truth, love and wisdom of Jesus. Billy is a great example of what happens when MAN corrupts the truth and makes God in his own image and damages souls in the process. Furthermore, by through his blasphemous actions. Billy has committed the one sin that he should fear may be irredeemable in that he has denied the essence of the Holy Spirit with deception and committed blasphemy along the way. Thats not for me to decide, but it's my understanding of the scriptures.
No other major religion brought about the abolition of slavery. So if the accusations of slavery is number 1 to you?............... No to Islam. No to Hinduism. No to Buddhism. Yes, to Jesus❤❤❤❤❤❤
Valuable sentiments overall, although as a person of the Jewish faith, I would say he perhaps needs some clarification about Judaism itself. He mentions around the 3 minute mark about Yeshua's critique of the Pharisees and their tithing and neglect of weightier Torah matters. Yeshua never said that tithing mint leaves was stupid. I understand Mr. Huff is summarizing, but he's come to a conclusion not arrived at in the text. Yeshua rather says in the text: "These you should have done, without neglecting these others." He is emphasizing that both the large and small matters of Torah are significant. He doesn't call tithing according to Hashem's Word "stupid." The concept of the "greatest" and "least" / "weighty" and "light" commandments are strictly rabbinic / Pharisaic in nature and are discussed across Talmudic literature, and Yeshua, as a legit rabbi, upheld that categorization, but he never have dared call observance of Torah "stupid." One other minor point on Mr. Huff's perspective of what was happening in the Sermon on the Mount: in Judaism, we do not view the Torah as able to be altered, but there is a concept of Torato shel Moshiach--"the Torah of the Messiah." It is the exact same Torah of Moses, but it is elevated in application and meaning, and that is the teaching that Messiah brings. Yeshua, operating as the Messianic candidate, was engaged in just that very thing: disseminating the Torato shel Moshiach that would have been expected of one claiming to be the Messiah. He was by no means setting aside the commandments nor adding to them, but clarifying that true observance of any particular commandment is far deeper than we have ever imagined, that there is so much more to living for Hashem than man understands. There is always room to draw closer to the Holy One, to refine that divine image we exist in to ever more sublime degrees. Also, I just have to comment as "a big Aramaic [language] guy" that I love the mug! ;)
You must learn Judahizem, the true word of slave in hebrew is "eved" from the word "avoda" which means work, the so called slaves in biblical times in the jewish country of Israel, they were called "avadim" and got paid by money or food and a roof, or a wife, like Izhak, the son of Jacob
Would love to see a Jewish scholar, maybe a rabbi, on one of these pods. It’s highly needed, there is so much to glean from it. It’s such a wonderful religion and I wish it was more understood in mainstream, especially from Christians
I was expecting ancient languages but he shot his foot with a sophomorish slight of biblical patriarchy and tying slavery to Adam just out of the gate. 😶
07:20 I highly doubt the word "slave" is really connected to the word "slavic". At least according to my understanding. The old arabic word for slavic people was "saqaliba" and for slave it is "abeed". In turkish it is probably "slavlar" and "köleler" respectively. In fact the ethymology of the word "slavs" is quite opposite, it comes from "slava", which means something like "praise / honor / pride".
Then you’d be incorrect. It is absolutely derived from the term “Slavic”, as they were widely considered to have been amongst the first slaves (Jews not withstanding).
@@zachariah85 Last time I looked up, it said that the word slave comes from Latin word sclavus (which means "slave"). Won't you admit it sounds much closer, than arabic or turkic words mentioned above?
@@alexrisk7129 From what I've found it is derived from the Latin word sclavus, as they were slaves in that time to the Romans as well as later on in the Muslim world and Ottoman empire. It sounding like the Latin word for slave doesn't mean that Arabs and Muslims didn't take them as slaves as well. The Turkish "slavlar" which you mentioned does sound a lot like slav and Turkey was the center of the Ottoman empire
@@ezmackgaming Of course, they were slaves (among many other), this is not my point. My point is that neither arabs nor ottomans use this word - so your theory makes no sense. And if you are familiar with turkic languages, you know that suffix 'lar' is used for plural. Slavlar is basically plural of slaves. How else shall turks call them? It has nothing to do with the word slaves = koöleler.
Judaism is the last ethno religion innthe world. Like Hellenism was to the greeks and Shinto tonJappanes. It just happens that we callled our belief by the same name as our ethnicity
There are quite a few other ethno religions left in the world like the Druze, Kurds, to some extent you can even argue that Hinduism is an ethno religion
It is an ethno religion for the purpose of establishing the value of family, tribe, culture and ethnicity as unified in Judaism. Today as Israel is under attack as a Jewish state it is the canary in the coal mine as a defender of the ethno state. Rather than the multicultural failures we see in Europe, which are in danger of succumbing to Islam, Israel must continue to exist as a Jewish state to be a light unto the nations. Hopefully Kurdish, Druze, and maybe even Sikh nations will be reestablished. It is a positive way to organize a nation. Modern nations like the United States and Canada are organized around values of liberty which are also important. I don't believe it is a "last ethno religion" but simply a useful way to organize society. It has never sought converts, yet doesn't turn them away if they show the proper sincerity and devotion. Certainly group conversion which the Shechemites sought is frowned upon. Arguably the Sermon on the Mount was perhaps one reason the Pharisees did not approve of Jesus's mission. He was political.
New Covenant Whole Gospel: How many modern Christians cannot honestly answer the questions below? Who is the King of Israel in John 1:49? Is the King of Israel now the Head of the Church, and are we His Body? Who is the “son” that is the “heir” to the land in Matthew 21:37-43? Why did God allow the Romans to destroy the Old Covenant temple and the Old Covenant city, about 40 years after His Son fulfilled the New Covenant promised in Jeremiah 31:31-34 in blood at Calvary? What the modern Church needs is a New Covenant Revival (Heb. 9:10) in which members of various denominations are willing to re-examine everything they believe and see if it agrees with the Bible, instead of the traditions of men. We need to be like the Bereans. It will be a battle between our flesh and the Holy Spirit. It will not be easy. If you get mad and upset when someone challenges your man-made Bible doctrines, that is your flesh resisting the truth found in God's Word. Nobody can completely understand the Bible unless they understand the relationship between the Old Covenant given to Moses at Mount Sinai and the New Covenant fulfilled in blood at Calvary. God is not now a “racist”. He has extended His love to all races of people through the New Covenant fulfilled by His Son’s blood at Calvary. The Apostle Paul warned against using “genealogies” in our faith in 1 Tim. 1:4, and Titus 3:9. If the New Covenant is "everlasting" in Hebrews 13:20 and the Old Covenant is "obsolete" in Hebrews 8:13, why would any Christian believe God is going back to the Old Covenant system during a future time period?
@@antrodaze910 In Galatians 4:24-31 the Apostle Paul speaks of the "two covenants" and then instructs the Galatian believers to "cast out" the Sinai Covenant of "bondage". We are not come to Mount Sinai in Hebrews 12:18. We are come instead to the new covenant church of Mount Sion and the blood of Jesus in Hebrews 12:22-24.
@ So what do you think is the difference between the covenants? Seeing how when Jesus said “this is my blood of the (new) covenant, which is poured out for many…” Obviously the old covenant didn’t involve the blood of Jesus, the New Covenant did. Other than that, what do you think the changes are? Jesus laid out what is expected for us in his ministry on the Earth, this is found in the gospels. Are you telling me his commandments and teachings aren’t the New Covenant which was prophesied? If not, why? If yes, then how are they any different from the same instructions he gave in the first covenant?
@@antrodaze910 What did the Apostle John say below? 1Jn 3:22 And whatsoever we ask, we receive of him, because we keep his commandments, and do those things that are pleasing in his sight. 1Jn 3:23 And this is his commandment, That we should believe on the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, as he gave us commandment. 1Jn 3:24 And he that keepeth his commandments dwelleth in him, and he in him. And hereby we know that he abideth in us, by the Spirit which he hath given us.
"But when the set time had fully come, God sent his Son, born of a woman, born under the law, to redeem those under the law, that we might receive adoption to sonship." (Galatians 4:4-5) All the other religions tell you what to do to get to the divine. Christianity is the only religion that tells you you will never be good enough to get to the divine so the divine came to you and did what you couldn't do, and then gives you the reward for free. It's so counterintuitive, it spits in the face of human pride. What kind of a person would have come up with it? On top of that, think about the quote "When the time had fully come." The Romans were in charge. Yes they were brutal, but they built a stable society. They eradicated the pirates in the Mediterranean Sea, they built roads everywhere, and everyone spoke either Greek or Latin by then. It had literally never been easier for human beings to travel, communicate, and share ideas. Is it any surprise that God would choose that specific time to send his Son to the crossroads of three continents? That might be a more unlikely coincidence than existence without a creator...
@@David-lq4tq The problem is that Talmudic Judaism is contradictory to Temple Judaism and to the Church that Jesus established, the Catholic Church. Most people conflate modern Judaism with Temple Judaism and they're not close to the same. Modern Judaism is a successor to the Pharisees and we know what Jesus thought of them.
@@jacobwoods6153 dipshit, Judaism is not completely talmudic. You are following a sub-branch of Judaism. You follow a Jewish Messiah, read from a Hebrew based Bible, say Hebrew words like Amen and Hallelujah on the daily. Christianity was/is Judaism. You are foolish if you think otherwise.
Jesus didn't say to stop tithing the mint leaves. Wes is wrong by implying that. Jesus was pointing out the importance of taking care of your neighbor.
@@danieljames8107 Wes literally claims Jesus said, "You're tithing your mint leaves, that's stupid." This is NOT what Jesus said. The actual quote is: “Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You give a tenth of your spices-mint, dill and cumin. But you have neglected the more important matters of the law-justice, mercy and faithfulness. You should have practiced the latter, without neglecting the former." Without neglecting the former means to keep doing that, but also do the other.
He did not misrepresent what he said, Wes said Jesus said that was stupid but read Matthew 23:23 and see Jesus did not imply such a thing, in fact quite the opposite. There is more that he misrepresented from Jesus’s words
@ nonsense. When someone is heal they never pay or was turn away for lack of money. Nor was anyone turned away from education because they did not have money. The god of the Bible is not about money.
@@theworldreportbydr.rothschild Go read your initial comment, dude. You said no one was ever charged for education. That is a statement of certainty and has little room for error. I provided you with one example where people had to pay for education in the Bible. Your brain could not compute, due to the illogical decision to double-down instead of admit error. The labourer is worthy of his hire, no?
@@theworldreportbydr.rothschild The G-D of the Bible owns everything you see. He likes gold, fine gold. Did you skip that section in the Torah where the Temple was built? You remember all that cheaply fabricated chinese plastic commanded to be used?
One thing i feel judaism has failed in is exploring the soul over the law. The law could and should be kept but to what extent. However i will say the NT god and OT god are very diffrent. Ot god was a strict lawgiver, nt god plays with the rules.
They are the same God. *Genesis 1:26* "Then God said, 'Let us make mankind in our image, in our likeness, so that they may rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky, over the livestock and all the wild animals, and over all the creatures that move along the ground.'" Thw first book and chapter of the OT. Is lsaying "our", "us" and "mankind in our image". This is just one example.
there is always going to be people criticizing the jews, but until they can prove that their traditions aren’t just stolen from us, that love is more powerful than keeping the law… jesus sounds like a British MP with this love stuff… that wont hold a people together for thousands of years . How is love working out for england?
@ No a madrasa is where they only study Islam. They studied science and math there as well. Also The University of Al-Karaouine in Morocco which is in Africa as well. So I still don’t get what he means by Christian institute.
Monasteries are the precursor to the current university system. It literally sprung from them. Doesn't mean there weren't schools popping up throughout history, but they didn't spread or network. The universities ya'll like to use as evidence were a joke compared to the current system, and they were one-offs for the given culture where they resided.
I'm not Muslim but Julian is way way off thinking Islam is not racially diverse. Huge swaths of Africa, huge swaths of Asia, of course there.is Pakistan, huge swath of Eastern Europe. Islam is incredibly diverse racially. It's just a fact.
The claim was not that Islam isn't racially diverse, it is that the religion is Arabian centric both in that the Arabic language is a baked in requirement for the religion, and that a racial hierarchy is present and justifiable.in the religion itself due to Muhammad purchasing an Arab slave using multiple black slaves.
But Islam is an Arabic colonial project. Surely once more folks figure out that it isn't a real religion, but a political ideology, there will be far less sympathy for Islam and it's "peaceful" ways.
Wes, with respect, you should research Pharisees more. They were not monolithic. You should really study Judaism. Yeshua was a Jewish Rabbi, He operated within Judaism and Jewish thought and debate. Please consider that there were inter-Jewish debate and Yeshua brings forth various opinions, many novel, but also many in line with certain Pharisaical traditions of that day. One must understand the schools of Shammai and Hillel. I’m a non-Jew who attends a Messianic Jewish synagogue. At the end of the day, Christianity gets their morality from Yeshua, who got it from God, via Judaism, ie, the Torah. If you study Judaism you will see it is not patriarchal at all, and women are esteemed and held in the highest regard.
Yes I totally agree and thank you for saying this. I am Jewish though, but all the same I want to see Jewish scholars go on these pods. It’s incredibly infuriating because they are barely getting half of the picture by just talking to Christians. No offense to Christians but it’s not the whole story, and there is so much to learn from Judaism and its perspective on the Old Testament
Very well said! 7 branches of Pharasaical Judaism during the second temple. Varying opinions. Simply playing the "Judaism is evil" card doesn't work anymore.
He lied about slavery here. The British were the first major power to end the slave trade. The bishops in the House of Lords voted against ending it. Unsubscribe time.

I pastor a church and I use to explain Jesus’ teachings this way too. Until I studied Judaism and realized Jesus always quoted the law. He never refuted. He said he didn’t come to destroy the law and yet every thing Christian’s teach that Jesus said and did is contrary to the law. But I say don’t be angry with your brother, that Leviticus 19:17. Jews had 5 forms of speech that was forbidden. Jesus touched on it in Matthew 5:22.
Why all this old mumbo jumbo nonsense because if u simply said this in today’s dialect it’s just common sense because reality is these stories were fantastic tall tales taught to try instill some sort of morals and structure in barbaric time
lmao pastor ? Have you studied the” Yewish Talmud “? Judaism teaches Jesus is burning in hot feces , why would I believe anything they say about the Bible
Biggest cap 🧢 I’ve ever heard. Islam is not race centric religion. He mentions Nigeria when it’s a country with Muslims & Christians living among eachother. Indonesia is the largest Muslim majority in the world so it isn’t an only Arab religion. The slavery topic is interesting, Christianity did not stop slavery it was actually a modernised theme when war was getting less and less throughout the ages. The Islamic world was always in conflict therefore abolishing slavery was never an option unless you wanted them to kill their opponents. Tbh we switched slavery to prisons in the 21st century so essentially if you commit a crime you’ll work for free in the prisons, sleep & eat when they tell you. Christianity actually pushed for no more whites to be enslaved & probably the reasons why there’s an amnesia in human history when it comes to white slaves. Christians did have a more humane nature & understanding in the 18th & 19th century so I understand they played a huge role in abolishing slavery throughout the world.
IT will always be an Arab sex cult. Also the entire slave trade around the world after the middle ages was Arabs selling Africans to Jewish and European sailors. Some Islamic African countries are the only ones in the world still today have slaves.
In Nigeria, the Muslims kill Christians and burn their churches. That is why they can only live in the South of Nigeria. Islam is an arab centric religion. Non-arab people have to pretend to be a 7th century arab and only get the most of Islam if they speak Arabic. Christianity did end slavery, and Islam was the force trying to uphold it in Africa and the middle east. "Islamic world was always at war, so ending slavery wasn't an option." What kind of sense does this make. Ask yourself why were they at war in the first place? They could have just stayed in Arabia and practiced their religion in peace.
Funny to me....biblical scholar can't quote from the text in which he's an expert. Go back and read what Jesus actually told them about tithing.... you missed the point, just like the pharisees missed the point. It's just the world we live in..."experts" exist everywhere...😅
Quite simply. God started with Abram and Sarai and the descendants mostly only intermarried for millennia. They have their own traits so you can recognize them anywhere.
I believe he means that society has made it that way. Like most Jewish peoples have certain characteristics in their appearance. Like, facial structures and hair types. So it kinda seems like it's became a race rather than a religion of regions of different countries.
Maybe invite an Orthodox Jew to talk about Judaism rather than ask a Christian about Judaism. As an Orthodox Jew, I can tell you he is dead wrong about Judaism. I haven't even listened to the entire clip but women in Judaism have more individuality than in any other religion. And Judaism has had schooling far before Christianity was invented
Orthodox J? Are you meaning of the Pharisee variety? Because the qualified ones to speak out must agree that Jesus is not the Christ. They are of the same stock as those who crucified Jesus, stoned Stephen and persecuted Christians in the past. Should we invite a Zionist Orthodox one? Theirs is aligned to a political ideology that is not supported by the Torah. They follow the Talmud which is not what Christians subscribe to. And the 7NL are not Biblical so I don’t know if they can represent Judaism when they practice other extra biblical beliefs.
As a Christian, he's wrong about a lot of Christianity too. He's just repeating things that modern protestant pastors preach, not what's been discovered in classics or archeology.
@ actually Billy seems to also be quoting from sci-fi movies- I have actually seen in movies what he calls enlightenment. Just like DaVinci Code, Star Trek etc. We need to also remember that Wes is Protestant and attends Toronto Baptist? …. K not certain. But why you might think that he is not saying correct things is that we have all been brought up in MANY denominations and there might be some differences. However his archeological info, linguistic knowledge and hence hermeneutical presentation is spot on.
Ok I know everyone is loving Wes right now. But be warned that any man who is claiming to know what was going on in Jesus mind and trying to speak as though he was there. Is a very dangerous man. You cannot claim to know what Jesus meant. Wes is very smart and very well read. But please listen very carefully to how he speaks about other denominations and other Christians, he uses very harsh and judging language.
@@Legaleyespeace I have a close friend that is a Jew and she frequently laments that modern Judaism has almost no similarity to the Israelites of Torah and that the prophets would have much to say to them today. I'll leave that to her. I believe it is because they are a people without a country and capital until recently and most importantly: they have no temple. What develops when you don't have your main means of navigating your faith is modern Judaism.
'What the Law actually meant?' Naw nah, man - Jesus was JUST talking about drugs man, purple stuff you stick in your eyes. And kids, also kids. That's ALL He was ever on about EVER. Ammon says. (Giggle).
While "public" school may have been a Christian institution, let's be completely honest about what it was. The first public schools in the new world/colonial America were mandatory along with church and could be punishable by death if you didn't go. Generally, you'd just be humiliated for first offenses but if death is the possible punishment for not attending, we can't possibly pretend it was wholly "good". If we're going to take the log out of our eye, then let's take the log out.

@@AbuJordyn most modern western ideologies do have their roots in Christianity. Christians have done a lot of evil over the centuries - some real gut wrenching stuff. Having said that, if you look at what they did at each point in time, and look at what non-Christian ruling societies who maintained good records were doing in the same time periods, it is at least comparable. Also, it’s a little strange to hear so much criticism of Christian ego when one of the most basic premises a Christian must adopt is “I am not enough on my own.” I just don’t get the egotism in that.
Everyone has access to the Hebrew text, it has nothing to do with the language... We also have the Spetuagint (Greek translation done by Jews in the second century BC) and a plethora of Targums (translations and paraphrases of the Hebrew OT into aramaic), so we know what the Hebrew says and what it meant since the Jews themselves also translated it into other languages. And yes, it's bad interpretation and outright mental gymnastics to deny the plain meaning of passages.
@@ManuelPalaiologos-sf3efI compare it to this. Isreal was given the written law. But most do not read it. Instead the sages wrote their own interpretation of what they wanted it to mean or it seems how to get around it. All the volumes of the talmud put together stack up to like two or three feet thick. And they are still modifying it. And it is put above God's written law or at least as an equal to it.
@ManuelPalaiologos-sf3ef I'm only talking about the Torah and tanach. Nothing else is jewish. Saying that an interpretation in an original language is crazy. I still read the texts in hebrew. All practicing jews do.

This guy talks more about the books he read than about the bible! 🤣 No, Jesus is not the Messiah! Why? People knew King Arthur was the King because it was known that whoever pulled Excalibur off the rock would be the King of Britain. Well, it's the same thing with Messiah. Whoever claims that title needs to prove it by doing some things that only THE REAL Messiah can do: - Ingathering of the exiles, [Ezekiel 37] - Knowledge of G-d will fill the world, [Habakkuk 2:14] - Resurrection of the dead, [Daniel 12:2] - Rebuilding of the Temple, [Ezekiel 47] - World peace, [Isaiah 2:4] Jesus did NONE of them! How can he be the Messiah without passing the test? 🤔 The only reason the SECOND COMMING was made up is because Jesus failed to do any of these things. The Jews are still all over the world, the world does not know G-d (that's why we have many religions), no resurrection of the dead, no Temple, and no world peace but the contrary, only plages, famines, and war! As Maimonides said: Mishneh Torah, Kings and Wars 11:6 Jesus of Nazareth who aspired to be the Mashiach and was executed by the court was also alluded to in Daniel's prophecies, as ibid. 11:14 states: “The vulgar among your people shall exalt themselves in an attempt to fulfill the vision, but they shall stumble.” Can there be a greater stumbling block than Christianity? All the prophets spoke of Mashiach as the redeemer of Israel and their savior who would gather their dispersed and strengthen their observance of the mitzvot. In contrast, Christianity caused the Jews to be slain by the sword, their remnants to be scattered and humbled, the Torah to be altered, and the majority of the world to err and serve a god other than HaShem.
Understand the genealogy of the Bible. There are multiple change points that affect today's versions. Hebrew->Greek->English This is the Traditional view, but this is simplistic. The Hebrew text went through several destruction events. The first destruction was Babylon. Babylon, in conquering took the wealth generating occupants back to Babylon. The culture in the conquered area was destroyed, like Hebrew writings, leaving nothing available for those who survive. The First Temple Torah Scroll was destroyed or lost during the conflict. The ones who survived and remained had to live from memories and garbage/error texts that were entombed. When the Children of Israel returned from Persia to rebuild the Temple, they also had to restore their Bible. When the Macedonian's (Greeks) conquered Israel, they required Hebrew speakers to write using Greek letters. A copy of the Second Temple Torah Scroll, written with Greek letters using the sounds of Hebrew words, a phonetic transliteration, was commissioned. This was a 70 Elders Project to conform to the Greek legalism. Then, when the Roman's destroyed the Second Temple, they destroyed the Temple Scroll written with Hebrew script. Rome's army was a mercenary army, from many different countries, speaking different languages. The Roman soldiers were united through Latin. The soldiers may not have spoke Greek, but could recognize the Greek script as being part of the Empire. Any texts written with Greek letters would survive. Any text with Hebrew script would be destroyed. After the Roman destruction, the Greek version of the Second Temple Scroll was circulating among 'synagogues' to ensure their copies were matching the information contained in this document. From this document, Greek speakers obtained a copy. Thinking it was Greek, they tried to make sense of it with a Greek mind, they failed. The document was a Phonetic Transliteration of Hebrew using Greek Phonemes. A sound alike translation. Out of this effort, after Jerome, the Septuagint emerged after 400ce, most likely assembled by Augustine. Augustine, as the author/editor of the Septuagint sculpted his text to conform to his Greek perspective. Jerome was the first Canonizer of the Bible and, disagreeing with Augustine refused to include the works of Paul, saying it makes two of the Gospels liars, in letters to Augustine. After Jerome died, Augustine survived him by 15 years, Jerome's Latin Vulgate became identical to Augustine's Latin Vulgate. Out of the Septuagint and the Latin Vulgate's we have ALL of the other translations, English and the rest.
You're assuming that all writings, including the entire Torah, were destroyed. But there were copies of it and all of the jewish traditions stayed in tact. Besides, it wasn't even fully written at the time Babylon was destroyed. It was most likely complied around the time of Ezra after he returned to Judea around 458 BC
@@lauramann8275 "But there were copies of it and all of the jewish traditions stayed in tact." Traditions are memories not written material. *We stand on our heads and gargle peanut butter because our fathers did so... Written material which remained in Jerusalem was destroyed by the conquerors. The wealthy conquered people who were taken to Babylon, like Daniel, brought their wealth with them. Daniel collected Temple writings in his private library. Every Prophet writing and every scroll at the Temple of Shlomo, Daniel preserved. What happened to Daniel's Library? Will Daniel's library contain books mentioned but not available today? Who set up the Magi (Priests) in Persia that visited Jerusalem 400 years later? Did these Magi bring Daniel's Library with them? The writings which remained, were destroyed or hidden. (Jeremiah hid the Scroll with The Ark of the Agreement during the seige. It is still beneath the Garden Tomb today.) "it wasn't even fully written at the time Babylon...destroyed (Jerusalem)." There is a need to define which time period constitutes the Bible. I define it this way: From Moses to Jeremiah is the construction period of the Bible. The Jezebel period was another destruction event. A fight between false prophets and Prophets, which the Prophets were losing. While Jezebel was winning, she was most likely destroying the Prophets writings of those she killed. Yes, the Bible was written over time, the scroll which Moses penned (or Joshua). Vayikra (Leviticus) is most likely the first or second book to be written. Genesis, a past history penned after Exodus and Leviticus; And Exodus, a recent History, probably written during or after the composition of Leviticus. Prophets and Judges add material to the core. Up until Jezebel, a dark period, then adding material again until Jeremiah. So From Moses to Jeremiah is the construction of the Bible.
@iExistOne Ok, but I'm talking about traditions like Passover, circumcision, the 10 commandments and laws. You mean the construction of the old testament, right? I read some where a long time ago that Job was the first book written.
Read Rabbi Tovai Singer's "Let's Get Biblical". Huff drank the Jim Jones flavored Kool-Aid in full. You may want to consider getting the Rabbi Singer on your podcast to set the record straight.
Singer is a fraud and contradicts himself all the time. He has lost every debate against a Christian, and Masonic Christians destroy him even worse. No matter how hard you try, your religion died when Jesus sent the nations to destroy your temple and your society.
The problem with Wess is everything. He is claiming to be 💯 right and everyone else is wrong. If you understand theology at all. Hes completely lost. They eay he talks he would fit in perfectly with big pastor churches.
Islam is not centered on the Arab world. East and Southeast Asia has the largest population of Muslims. Islam does not have a race. The prophet Muhammad did not support slavery and in his last sermon spoke about how no man was better than another based on race or color. The guest states that Christians were the force behind abolition movements in the West. It could also be said that Christians were the force behind the establishment and expansion of slavery in the west. Mostly slave traders and slave holders were Christians. The slave holders converted the slaves to Christians and taught them that God wanted them to be obedient to their masters. The guest has a very narrow, Westernized Christian view.
What Koran are you reading where Mohammed DIDN’T support slavery? WHAT?! Lmaoooo The word “slave” itself comes from the word “slav”, as in *the* Slavs, because of how many people the Muslim armies conquered and then subjugated. Blonde-haired, blue-eyed women were especially desirable because of the scarcity of whites in the Arab lands. Mohammed also commanded to subjugate the “People of the Book” (Christians and Jews) by making them pay a Jizya tax of up to 50%. Muslims of today have to contend with their schizophrenic “prophet” being a child-ra***ng, slave-owning, bloodthirsty warlord; Christians do not.
Prophet Muhammed upheld slavery. He was a slave trader himself. He even trades 1 white arab for 2 black slaves. Islam upholded slavery even to this day. Only 1% of whites owned slaves which was what the economy was built on. The Africans who sold their people to the Europeans to be shipped to the Americas were Muslim. Christians were the ones who abolished slavery. Islam is an arab centric religion, you have to pretend to be a 7th-century arab and only get the most out of the religion if you learn Arabic (the language of Allah).
Jesus was a Hebrew. The 12 apostles were Hebrews. These Hebrews, plus countless others throughout the ages, taught non-Hebrewes (Gentiles), and continue to this day teaching, and affirming the foundational teachings of Christian's. How are we Gentiles teaching Hebrews? You do understand that Judaism is not the religion of the Hebrews? That is what Hebrews like Jesus, his apostles, and all the other countless Hebrews have taught us.
Have you read the Talmud, the horrible thing they have written about non Jews, and many other awful acts. They don't read holy books anymore, only the book of Rabbis.
He chose them to be His servants. That was the point of the Temple and the original Kingdom of Israel. They are meant to serve Hashem by serving the world. Imagine when people actually learn this, they will be encouraging the Jews to rebuild the Temple and restore the Kingdom of Israel.
This guy...Paul turnt the early church to talmudic judaism along with the pharicese and em..Pharisiasm, was a relatively predominent religion in the time of Jesus(Yashua), they studied and practiced the talmud not the torah. Judaism originated with the biblical patriarch Abraham (approx 1800 BCE). Abraham established a covenant with God that was confirmed with the reception of the Torah (the Law including the Ten Commandments) from God through Moses to the Jewish people at Mount Sinai...Judaism, as the Jewish religion came to be known in the 1st century ce, and was based on ancient Israelite religion, ridden of many of its Canaanite (isealites/jews picked up canaanite customs after they fled egypt taking up refuge in canaan) features but with the addition of key elements from Babylonia and Persia.Yashua was literally against the pagan/jewish (baal worshipping papacy) led church..The administration of the holy roman church was purposed for indoctrination of the people and stealing off of their lands, wealth and livelyhoods on behalf of their god baal. yashua the Christ wants us to unlock our inner gods not to be slaves bowing down to worship him, you invoke christ by learning his ways/customs and being like him, he was literally against the idolization of man, you can respect/recognize the essense of the kosmos without being idolutreous.

In spain Muslims were running universities where Muslims Jews and christmas study. . Muslims were having public hospitals long before, when Europe was in dark ages. . . alas . . history is not told rightly.
What do you mean? Andalusian Spain is praised as a Golden Age by historians; those who question such a depiction are in the minority, whether they're right or wrong. That said, what is often overlooked is how much Muslims gained from the Byzantine Christian tradition after they conquered them. Its through Byzantium that they gained access to Greek philosophy, for example.
@@asattar973 Seriously, Islam came to Greek philosophy from the Byzantine Christians that they conquered. That's the truth my friend. And Greek philosophy wasn't banned in Western Christendom; Greek philosophy was foundational to Christian thought, but certain thinkers, such as Aristotle were essentially lost prior to their rediscovery. Platonic philosophy informed St. Augustine's thought, but it wasn't really until the time of St. Thomas Aquinas that Aristotle took his place of prominence in Catholic and Christian thought. But either way, the fact is that the Byzantines were conquered by the Muslims, the Muslims gained access to Greek philosophy from them and later on, Western Christendom gained access to forgotten elements of Greek literature and thought from the Muslims.
Yave is not god, he was an Elohim, in the original Hebrew text there were a lot of Elohim, each one in charge of a group of people, Yave was only in charge o Jacob’s family. Theology invented a lie or got all wrong. YAVE is not god!!!! The word god was invented by the Greeks, the original word in Hebrew text is Elohim, and is plural, and no one knows what it means.
You should talk about the rapture that the whole idea wasn’t added until 1908 Before that Christians didn’t believe that you would suddenly be taken by God naked, and your clothes would be on the ground
The apostle Paul describing the Rapture 1 Thessalonians 4:14-17 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him. For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep. For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
@@Arvak777 Exactly, that's when the rapture will occur Mark 13:24-27 But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun shall be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, And the stars of heaven shall fall, and the powers that are in heaven shall be shaken. And then shall they see the Son of man coming in the clouds with great power and glory. And then shall he send his angels, and shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from the uttermost part of the earth to the uttermost part of heaven.

That was an awesome episode! Thank you so much for having Wes Huff on your show. I love how he explains things with such eloquence and yet, so simply. For someone as knowledgeable and well-versed, it's refreshing to see such humility. Praise King Jesus for the spread of true Christianity, extending His love to people from every nationality, people, tribe and tongue. Praying for you and wishing you all the best.
The real issue in the historical context is cultural Christians compared to those that have had a real relationship with The Christ. On the surface they look alike but the fruit (Actions) reflect a different story.
King Gezo of formerly Dahomey,now Benin, said in the 1840's he would do anything the British wanted him to do apart from giving up slave trade: "The slave trade is the ruling principle of my people. It is the source and the glory of their wealth…the mother lulls the child to sleep with notes of triumph over an enemy reduced to slavery…"
Well said Wesley, it’s always a pleasure to hear you talk 👍
Jesus Christ was a perfect example of how we're supposed to live, the best role model and leader we could hope for.
Sadly, we are only human and still make mistakes.

Wes exposing Billy Carson, who has led Christians astray- and seemingly, knowingly- is what brought me to him. I don't think it's by accident. Huff helps to educate and validate the truth, love and wisdom of Jesus. Billy is a great example of what happens when MAN corrupts the truth and makes God in his own image and damages souls in the process.
Furthermore, by through his blasphemous actions. Billy has committed the one sin that he should fear may be irredeemable in that he has denied the essence of the Holy Spirit with deception and committed blasphemy along the way. Thats not for me to decide, but it's my understanding of the scriptures.
Wow, are you deceived. Just like Wes.

Enslavement is actually a basic tenet of the Islamic ideology.
Valuable sentiments overall, although as a person of the Jewish faith, I would say he perhaps needs some clarification about Judaism itself. He mentions around the 3 minute mark about Yeshua's critique of the Pharisees and their tithing and neglect of weightier Torah matters. Yeshua never said that tithing mint leaves was stupid. I understand Mr. Huff is summarizing, but he's come to a conclusion not arrived at in the text. Yeshua rather says in the text: "These you should have done, without neglecting these others." He is emphasizing that both the large and small matters of Torah are significant. He doesn't call tithing according to Hashem's Word "stupid." The concept of the "greatest" and "least" / "weighty" and "light" commandments are strictly rabbinic / Pharisaic in nature and are discussed across Talmudic literature, and Yeshua, as a legit rabbi, upheld that categorization, but he never have dared call observance of Torah "stupid."
One other minor point on Mr. Huff's perspective of what was happening in the Sermon on the Mount: in Judaism, we do not view the Torah as able to be altered, but there is a concept of Torato shel Moshiach--"the Torah of the Messiah." It is the exact same Torah of Moses, but it is elevated in application and meaning, and that is the teaching that Messiah brings. Yeshua, operating as the Messianic candidate, was engaged in just that very thing: disseminating the Torato shel Moshiach that would have been expected of one claiming to be the Messiah. He was by no means setting aside the commandments nor adding to them, but clarifying that true observance of any particular commandment is far deeper than we have ever imagined, that there is so much more to living for Hashem than man understands. There is always room to draw closer to the Holy One, to refine that divine image we exist in to ever more sublime degrees.
Also, I just have to comment as "a big Aramaic [language] guy" that I love the mug! ;)
You must learn Judahizem, the true word of slave in hebrew is "eved" from the word "avoda" which means work, the so called slaves in biblical times in the jewish country of Israel, they were called "avadim" and got paid by money or food and a roof, or a wife, like Izhak, the son of Jacob
Gregory of Nyssa wrote against slavery.
Christianity is a middle Eastern religion. Its birthplace and heartland was there, before the islamic conquest genocided it into minority status.
This video title is incredibly misleading. It barely goes into Jewish interpretation at all. Disappointing
Would love to see a Jewish scholar, maybe a rabbi, on one of these pods. It’s highly needed, there is so much to glean from it. It’s such a wonderful religion and I wish it was more understood in mainstream, especially from Christians
I agree, also would love to see a Jewish scholar on one of these pods
I was expecting ancient languages but he shot his foot with a sophomorish slight of biblical patriarchy and tying slavery to Adam just out of the gate. 😶
07:20 I highly doubt the word "slave" is really connected to the word "slavic". At least according to my understanding.
The old arabic word for slavic people was "saqaliba" and for slave it is "abeed". In turkish it is probably "slavlar" and "köleler" respectively.
In fact the ethymology of the word "slavs" is quite opposite, it comes from "slava", which means something like "praise / honor / pride".
Then you’d be incorrect. It is absolutely derived from the term “Slavic”, as they were widely considered to have been amongst the first slaves (Jews not withstanding).
@@zachariah85 Last time I looked up, it said that the word slave comes from Latin word sclavus (which means "slave"). Won't you admit it sounds much closer, than arabic or turkic words mentioned above?
@@zachariah85 After women.
@@alexrisk7129 From what I've found it is derived from the Latin word sclavus, as they were slaves in that time to the Romans as well as later on in the Muslim world and Ottoman empire. It sounding like the Latin word for slave doesn't mean that Arabs and Muslims didn't take them as slaves as well. The Turkish "slavlar" which you mentioned does sound a lot like slav and Turkey was the center of the Ottoman empire
@@ezmackgaming Of course, they were slaves (among many other), this is not my point. My point is that neither arabs nor ottomans use this word - so your theory makes no sense. And if you are familiar with turkic languages, you know that suffix 'lar' is used for plural. Slavlar is basically plural of slaves. How else shall turks call them? It has nothing to do with the word slaves = koöleler.
Judaism is the last ethno religion innthe world. Like Hellenism was to the greeks and Shinto tonJappanes. It just happens that we callled our belief by the same name as our ethnicity
There are quite a few other ethno religions left in the world like the Druze, Kurds, to some extent you can even argue that Hinduism is an ethno religion
Islam is the most ethno-religious sect in the planet.
It is an ethno religion for the purpose of establishing the value of family, tribe, culture and ethnicity as unified in Judaism. Today as Israel is under attack as a Jewish state it is the canary in the coal mine as a defender of the ethno state. Rather than the multicultural failures we see in Europe, which are in danger of succumbing to Islam, Israel must continue to exist as a Jewish state to be a light unto the nations. Hopefully Kurdish, Druze, and maybe even Sikh nations will be reestablished. It is a positive way to organize a nation. Modern nations like the United States and Canada are organized around values of liberty which are also important. I don't believe it is a "last ethno religion" but simply a useful way to organize society. It has never sought converts, yet doesn't turn them away if they show the proper sincerity and devotion. Certainly group conversion which the Shechemites sought is frowned upon. Arguably the Sermon on the Mount was perhaps one reason the Pharisees did not approve of Jesus's mission. He was political.
New Covenant Whole Gospel: How many modern Christians cannot honestly answer the questions below?
Who is the King of Israel in John 1:49? Is the King of Israel now the Head of the Church, and are we His Body? Who is the “son” that is the “heir” to the land in Matthew 21:37-43? Why did God allow the Romans to destroy the Old Covenant temple and the Old Covenant city, about 40 years after His Son fulfilled the New Covenant promised in Jeremiah 31:31-34 in blood at Calvary?
What the modern Church needs is a New Covenant Revival (Heb. 9:10) in which members of various denominations are willing to re-examine everything they believe and see if it agrees with the Bible, instead of the traditions of men. We need to be like the Bereans. It will be a battle between our flesh and the Holy Spirit. It will not be easy. If you get mad and upset when someone challenges your man-made Bible doctrines, that is your flesh resisting the truth found in God's Word. Nobody can completely understand the Bible unless they understand the relationship between the Old Covenant given to Moses at Mount Sinai and the New Covenant fulfilled in blood at Calvary.
God is not now a “racist”. He has extended His love to all races of people through the New Covenant fulfilled by His Son’s blood at Calvary. The Apostle Paul warned against using “genealogies” in our faith in 1 Tim. 1:4, and Titus 3:9.
If the New Covenant is "everlasting" in Hebrews 13:20 and the Old Covenant is "obsolete" in Hebrews 8:13, why would any Christian believe God is going back to the Old Covenant system during a future time period?
The New Covenant isn’t a complete rejection of the Old Covenant.
@@antrodaze910
In Galatians 4:24-31 the Apostle Paul speaks of the "two covenants" and then instructs the Galatian believers to "cast out" the Sinai Covenant of "bondage".
We are not come to Mount Sinai in Hebrews 12:18. We are come instead to the new covenant church of Mount Sion and the blood of Jesus in Hebrews 12:22-24.
@ So what do you think is the difference between the covenants? Seeing how when Jesus said “this is my blood of the (new) covenant, which is poured out for many…”
Obviously the old covenant didn’t involve the blood of Jesus, the New Covenant did.
Other than that, what do you think the changes are?
Jesus laid out what is expected for us in his ministry on the Earth, this is found in the gospels.
Are you telling me his commandments and teachings aren’t the New Covenant which was prophesied?
If not, why? If yes, then how are they any different from the same instructions he gave in the first covenant?
@@antrodaze910 What did the Apostle John say below?
1Jn 3:22 And whatsoever we ask, we receive of him, because we keep his commandments, and do those things that are pleasing in his sight.

"But when the set time had fully come, God sent his Son, born of a woman, born under the law, to redeem those under the law, that we might receive adoption to sonship." (Galatians 4:4-5)
All the other religions tell you what to do to get to the divine. Christianity is the only religion that tells you you will never be good enough to get to the divine so the divine came to you and did what you couldn't do, and then gives you the reward for free. It's so counterintuitive, it spits in the face of human pride. What kind of a person would have come up with it?
On top of that, think about the quote "When the time had fully come." The Romans were in charge. Yes they were brutal, but they built a stable society. They eradicated the pirates in the Mediterranean Sea, they built roads everywhere, and everyone spoke either Greek or Latin by then. It had literally never been easier for human beings to travel, communicate, and share ideas. Is it any surprise that God would choose that specific time to send his Son to the crossroads of three continents? That might be a more unlikely coincidence than existence without a creator...

“Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You give a tenth of your spices-mint, dill and cumin. But you have neglected the more important matters of the law-justice, mercy and faithfulness. You should have practiced the latter, without neglecting the former."
Without neglecting the former means to keep doing that, but also do the other.

I'm not Muslim but Julian is way way off thinking Islam is not racially diverse. Huge swaths of Africa, huge swaths of Asia, of course there.is Pakistan, huge swath of Eastern Europe. Islam is incredibly diverse racially. It's just a fact.
The claim was not that Islam isn't racially diverse, it is that the religion is Arabian centric both in that the Arabic language is a baked in requirement for the religion, and that a racial hierarchy is present and justifiable.in the religion itself due to Muhammad purchasing an Arab slave using multiple black slaves.
But Islam is an Arabic colonial project. Surely once more folks figure out that it isn't a real religion, but a political ideology, there will be far less sympathy for Islam and it's "peaceful" ways.
Wes, with respect, you should research Pharisees more. They were not monolithic. You should really study Judaism. Yeshua was a Jewish Rabbi, He operated within Judaism and Jewish thought and debate. Please consider that there were inter-Jewish debate and Yeshua brings forth various opinions, many novel, but also many in line with certain Pharisaical traditions of that day. One must understand the schools of Shammai and Hillel. I’m a non-Jew who attends a Messianic Jewish synagogue. At the end of the day, Christianity gets their morality from Yeshua, who got it from God, via Judaism, ie, the Torah. If you study Judaism you will see it is not patriarchal at all, and women are esteemed and held in the highest regard.
Yes I totally agree and thank you for saying this. I am Jewish though, but all the same I want to see Jewish scholars go on these pods. It’s incredibly infuriating because they are barely getting half of the picture by just talking to Christians. No offense to Christians but it’s not the whole story, and there is so much to learn from Judaism and its perspective on the Old Testament
Very well said! 7 branches of Pharasaical Judaism during the second temple. Varying opinions. Simply playing the "Judaism is evil" card doesn't work anymore.

I pastor a church and I use to explain Jesus’ teachings this way too. Until I studied Judaism and realized Jesus always quoted the law. He never refuted. He said he didn’t come to destroy the law and yet every thing Christian’s teach that Jesus said and did is contrary to the law. But I say don’t be angry with your brother, that Leviticus 19:17. Jews had 5 forms of speech that was forbidden. Jesus touched on it in Matthew 5:22.
The old Covenant law was never meant for Gentiles. It had a purpose, and it's purpose was Christ.
Why all this old mumbo jumbo nonsense because if u simply said this in today’s dialect it’s just common sense because reality is these stories were fantastic tall tales taught to try instill some sort of morals and structure in barbaric time

Biggest cap 🧢 I’ve ever heard. Islam is not race centric religion. He mentions Nigeria when it’s a country with Muslims & Christians living among eachother. Indonesia is the largest Muslim majority in the world so it isn’t an only Arab religion. The slavery topic is interesting, Christianity did not stop slavery it was actually a modernised theme when war was getting less and less throughout the ages. The Islamic world was always in conflict therefore abolishing slavery was never an option unless you wanted them to kill their opponents. Tbh we switched slavery to prisons in the 21st century so essentially if you commit a crime you’ll work for free in the prisons, sleep & eat when they tell you. Christianity actually pushed for no more whites to be enslaved & probably the reasons why there’s an amnesia in human history when it comes to white slaves. Christians did have a more humane nature & understanding in the 18th & 19th century so I understand they played a huge role in abolishing slavery throughout the world.
IT will always be an Arab sex cult. Also the entire slave trade around the world after the middle ages was Arabs selling Africans to Jewish and European sailors. Some Islamic African countries are the only ones in the world still today have slaves.
In Nigeria, the Muslims kill Christians and burn their churches. That is why they can only live in the South of Nigeria. Islam is an arab centric religion. Non-arab people have to pretend to be a 7th century arab and only get the most of Islam if they speak Arabic. Christianity did end slavery, and Islam was the force trying to uphold it in Africa and the middle east. "Islamic world was always at war, so ending slavery wasn't an option." What kind of sense does this make. Ask yourself why were they at war in the first place? They could have just stayed in Arabia and practiced their religion in peace.
Funny to me....biblical scholar can't quote from the text in which he's an expert. Go back and read what Jesus actually told them about tithing.... you missed the point, just like the pharisees missed the point. It's just the world we live in..."experts" exist everywhere...😅

Judaism is not a race omg what are we saying..
I believe he means that society has made it that way. Like most Jewish peoples have certain characteristics in their appearance. Like, facial structures and hair types. So it kinda seems like it's became a race rather than a religion of regions of different countries.

Maybe invite an Orthodox Jew to talk about Judaism rather than ask a Christian about Judaism. As an Orthodox Jew, I can tell you he is dead wrong about Judaism. I haven't even listened to the entire clip but women in Judaism have more individuality than in any other religion. And Judaism has had schooling far before Christianity was invented
Orthodox J? Are you meaning of the Pharisee variety? Because the qualified ones to speak out must agree that Jesus is not the Christ.
They are of the same stock as those who crucified Jesus, stoned Stephen and persecuted Christians in the past.
Should we invite a Zionist Orthodox one? Theirs is aligned to a political ideology that is not supported by the Torah.
They follow the Talmud which is not what Christians subscribe to. And the 7NL are not Biblical so I don’t know if they can represent Judaism when they practice other extra biblical beliefs.
As a Christian, he's wrong about a lot of Christianity too. He's just repeating things that modern protestant pastors preach, not what's been discovered in classics or archeology.
@ actually Billy seems to also be quoting from sci-fi movies- I have actually seen in movies what he calls enlightenment. Just like DaVinci Code, Star Trek etc.
We need to also remember that Wes is Protestant and attends Toronto Baptist? …. K not certain.
But why you might think that he is not saying correct things is that we have all been brought up in MANY denominations and there might be some differences.
However his archeological info, linguistic knowledge and hence hermeneutical presentation is spot on.
@kategem4603 He is not spot on with anything in the Torah or as you may refer to as the "Old Testament "
@ praying that you come to know Jesus as Messiah and Lord - He came to fulfill the OT.
He is writing His Laws on the tablet of our hearts.

While "public" school may have been a Christian institution, let's be completely honest about what it was. The first public schools in the new world/colonial America were mandatory along with church and could be punishable by death if you didn't go. Generally, you'd just be humiliated for first offenses but if death is the possible punishment for not attending, we can't possibly pretend it was wholly "good". If we're going to take the log out of our eye, then let's take the log out.

@@AbuJordyn most modern western ideologies do have their roots in Christianity. Christians have done a lot of evil over the centuries - some real gut wrenching stuff. Having said that, if you look at what they did at each point in time, and look at what non-Christian ruling societies who maintained good records were doing in the same time periods, it is at least comparable. Also, it’s a little strange to hear so much criticism of Christian ego when one of the most basic premises a Christian must adopt is “I am not enough on my own.” I just don’t get the egotism in that.
@@AbuJordyn It's your ego and pride...
Imagine saying the original language it was written in is a bad interpretation. lmao.
Everyone has access to the Hebrew text, it has nothing to do with the language... We also have the Spetuagint (Greek translation done by Jews in the second century BC) and a plethora of Targums (translations and paraphrases of the Hebrew OT into aramaic), so we know what the Hebrew says and what it meant since the Jews themselves also translated it into other languages. And yes, it's bad interpretation and outright mental gymnastics to deny the plain meaning of passages.
@@ManuelPalaiologos-sf3efI compare it to this. Isreal was given the written law. But most do not read it. Instead the sages wrote their own interpretation of what they wanted it to mean or it seems how to get around it. All the volumes of the talmud put together stack up to like two or three feet thick. And they are still modifying it. And it is put above God's written law or at least as an equal to it.
It's a bad idea in general to believe anything a Hebrew says.
@ManuelPalaiologos-sf3ef I'm only talking about the Torah and tanach. Nothing else is jewish. Saying that an interpretation in an original language is crazy. I still read the texts in hebrew. All practicing jews do.
@gradyjohnson7853 no in original hebrew hashem says he will never change nor ammend his laws. We still read these original t3xts in the original language.

@@GodsSon-g1m But there would be no values if it wasn't for the Jews.

No, Jesus is not the Messiah! Why? People knew King Arthur was the King because it was known that whoever pulled Excalibur off the rock would be the King of Britain. Well, it's the same thing with Messiah. Whoever claims that title needs to prove it by doing some things that only THE REAL Messiah can do:
- Ingathering of the exiles, [Ezekiel 37]
- Knowledge of G-d will fill the world, [Habakkuk 2:14]
- Resurrection of the dead, [Daniel 12:2]
- Rebuilding of the Temple, [Ezekiel 47]
- World peace, [Isaiah 2:4]
Jesus did NONE of them! How can he be the Messiah without passing the test? 🤔 The only reason the SECOND COMMING was made up is because Jesus failed to do any of these things. The Jews are still all over the world, the world does not know G-d (that's why we have many religions), no resurrection of the dead, no Temple, and no world peace but the contrary, only plages, famines, and war!
As Maimonides said:
Mishneh Torah, Kings and Wars 11:6
Jesus of Nazareth who aspired to be the Mashiach and was executed by the court was also alluded to in Daniel's prophecies, as ibid. 11:14 states: “The vulgar among your people shall exalt themselves in an attempt to fulfill the vision, but they shall stumble.” Can there be a greater stumbling block than Christianity? All the prophets spoke of Mashiach as the redeemer of Israel and their savior who would gather their dispersed and strengthen their observance of the mitzvot. In contrast, Christianity caused the Jews to be slain by the sword, their remnants to be scattered and humbled, the Torah to be altered, and the majority of the world to err and serve a god other than HaShem.
Mashiach isn't coming, the one who claims he is him from the new temple will be the Antichrist. Son of Satan.
Study harder rabbi
We don't have mistakes. Jesus was a very gay man..
Understand the genealogy of the Bible. There are multiple change points that affect today's versions.
Hebrew->Greek->English This is the Traditional view, but this is simplistic.
The Hebrew text went through several destruction events.
The first destruction was Babylon.
Babylon, in conquering took the wealth generating occupants back to Babylon.
The culture in the conquered area was destroyed, like Hebrew writings, leaving nothing available for those who survive.
The First Temple Torah Scroll was destroyed or lost during the conflict.
The ones who survived and remained had to live from memories and garbage/error texts that were entombed.
When the Children of Israel returned from Persia to rebuild the Temple, they also had to restore their Bible.
When the Macedonian's (Greeks) conquered Israel, they required Hebrew speakers to write using Greek letters.
A copy of the Second Temple Torah Scroll, written with Greek letters using the sounds of Hebrew words, a phonetic transliteration, was commissioned. This was a 70 Elders Project to conform to the Greek legalism.
Then, when the Roman's destroyed the Second Temple, they destroyed the Temple Scroll written with Hebrew script.
Rome's army was a mercenary army, from many different countries, speaking different languages. The Roman soldiers were united through Latin. The soldiers may not have spoke Greek, but could recognize the Greek script as being part of the Empire. Any texts written with Greek letters would survive. Any text with Hebrew script would be destroyed.
After the Roman destruction, the Greek version of the Second Temple Scroll was circulating among 'synagogues' to ensure their copies were matching the information contained in this document. From this document, Greek speakers obtained a copy. Thinking it was Greek, they tried to make sense of it with a Greek mind, they failed. The document was a Phonetic Transliteration of Hebrew using Greek Phonemes. A sound alike translation.
Out of this effort, after Jerome, the Septuagint emerged after 400ce, most likely assembled by Augustine.
Augustine, as the author/editor of the Septuagint sculpted his text to conform to his Greek perspective.
Jerome was the first Canonizer of the Bible and, disagreeing with Augustine refused to include the works of Paul, saying it makes two of the Gospels liars, in letters to Augustine. After Jerome died, Augustine survived him by 15 years, Jerome's Latin Vulgate became identical to Augustine's Latin Vulgate.
Out of the Septuagint and the Latin Vulgate's we have ALL of the other translations, English and the rest.
You're assuming that all writings, including the entire Torah, were destroyed. But there were copies of it and all of the jewish traditions stayed in tact. Besides, it wasn't even fully written at the time Babylon was destroyed. It was most likely complied around the time of Ezra after he returned to Judea around 458 BC
@@lauramann8275 "But there were copies of it and all of the jewish traditions stayed in tact."
Traditions are memories not written material.
*We stand on our heads and gargle peanut butter because our fathers did so...
Written material which remained in Jerusalem was destroyed by the conquerors.
The wealthy conquered people who were taken to Babylon, like Daniel, brought their wealth with them. Daniel collected Temple writings in his private library. Every Prophet writing and every scroll at the Temple of Shlomo, Daniel preserved.
What happened to Daniel's Library?
Will Daniel's library contain books mentioned but not available today?
Who set up the Magi (Priests) in Persia that visited Jerusalem 400 years later?
Did these Magi bring Daniel's Library with them?
The writings which remained, were destroyed or hidden. (Jeremiah hid the Scroll with The Ark of the Agreement during the seige. It is still beneath the Garden Tomb today.)
"it wasn't even fully written at the time Babylon...destroyed (Jerusalem)."
There is a need to define which time period constitutes the Bible. I define it this way:
From Moses to Jeremiah is the construction period of the Bible.
The Jezebel period was another destruction event. A fight between false prophets and Prophets, which the Prophets were losing.
While Jezebel was winning, she was most likely destroying the Prophets writings of those she killed.
Yes, the Bible was written over time, the scroll which Moses penned (or Joshua). Vayikra (Leviticus) is most likely the first or second book to be written.
Genesis, a past history penned after Exodus and Leviticus; And Exodus, a recent History, probably written during or after the composition of Leviticus.
Prophets and Judges add material to the core. Up until Jezebel, a dark period, then adding material again until Jeremiah.
So From Moses to Jeremiah is the construction of the Bible.
@iExistOne Ok, but I'm talking about traditions like Passover, circumcision, the 10 commandments and laws.
You mean the construction of the old testament, right? I read some where a long time ago that Job was the first book written.
Read Rabbi Tovai Singer's "Let's Get Biblical". Huff drank the Jim Jones flavored Kool-Aid in full. You may want to consider getting the Rabbi Singer on your podcast to set the record straight.
Singer is a fraud and contradicts himself all the time. He has lost every debate against a Christian, and Masonic Christians destroy him even worse. No matter how hard you try, your religion died when Jesus sent the nations to destroy your temple and your society.

Islam is not centered on the Arab world. East and Southeast Asia has the largest population of Muslims. Islam does not have a race. The prophet Muhammad did not support slavery and in his last sermon spoke about how no man was better than another based on race or color.
The guest states that Christians were the force behind abolition movements in the West. It could also be said that Christians were the force behind the establishment and expansion of slavery in the west. Mostly slave traders and slave holders were Christians. The slave holders converted the slaves to Christians and taught them that God wanted them to be obedient to their masters. The guest has a very narrow, Westernized Christian view.
What Koran are you reading where Mohammed DIDN’T support slavery? WHAT?! Lmaoooo
The word “slave” itself comes from the word “slav”, as in *the* Slavs, because of how many people the Muslim armies conquered and then subjugated. Blonde-haired, blue-eyed women were especially desirable because of the scarcity of whites in the Arab lands. Mohammed also commanded to subjugate the “People of the Book” (Christians and Jews) by making them pay a Jizya tax of up to 50%.
Muslims of today have to contend with their schizophrenic “prophet” being a child-ra***ng, slave-owning, bloodthirsty warlord; Christians do not.
Prophet Muhammed upheld slavery. He was a slave trader himself. He even trades 1 white arab for 2 black slaves. Islam upholded slavery even to this day. Only 1% of whites owned slaves which was what the economy was built on. The Africans who sold their people to the Europeans to be shipped to the Americas were Muslim. Christians were the ones who abolished slavery. Islam is an arab centric religion, you have to pretend to be a 7th-century arab and only get the most out of the religion if you learn Arabic (the language of Allah).
I love how Christians took the Jews religion and then told them they were wrong about what they believe.
Jesus was a Hebrew. The 12 apostles were Hebrews. These Hebrews, plus countless others throughout the ages, taught non-Hebrewes (Gentiles), and continue to this day teaching, and affirming the foundational teachings of Christian's.
How are we Gentiles teaching Hebrews?
You do understand that Judaism is not the religion of the Hebrews? That is what Hebrews like Jesus, his apostles, and all the other countless Hebrews have taught us.

This guy...Paul turnt the early church to talmudic judaism along with the pharicese and em..Pharisiasm, was a relatively predominent religion in the time of Jesus(Yashua), they studied and practiced the talmud not the torah. Judaism originated with the biblical patriarch Abraham (approx 1800 BCE). Abraham established a covenant with God that was confirmed with the reception of the Torah (the Law including the Ten Commandments) from God through Moses to the Jewish people at Mount Sinai...Judaism, as the Jewish religion came to be known in the 1st century ce, and was based on ancient Israelite religion, ridden of many of its Canaanite (isealites/jews picked up canaanite customs after they fled egypt taking up refuge in canaan) features but with the addition of key elements from Babylonia and Persia.Yashua was literally against the pagan/jewish (baal worshipping papacy) led church..The administration of the holy roman church was purposed for indoctrination of the people and stealing off of their lands, wealth and livelyhoods on behalf of their god baal. yashua the Christ wants us to unlock our inner gods not to be slaves bowing down to worship him, you invoke christ by learning his ways/customs and being like him, he was literally against the idolization of man, you can respect/recognize the essense of the kosmos without being idolutreous.

What do you mean? Andalusian Spain is praised as a Golden Age by historians; those who question such a depiction are in the minority, whether they're right or wrong. That said, what is often overlooked is how much Muslims gained from the Byzantine Christian tradition after they conquered them. Its through Byzantium that they gained access to Greek philosophy, for example.
@@kforcer Seriously . . greek philosophy was banned in christiandom. . through Muslims its alive today. . .
@@asattar973 Seriously, Islam came to Greek philosophy from the Byzantine Christians that they conquered. That's the truth my friend. And Greek philosophy wasn't banned in Western Christendom; Greek philosophy was foundational to Christian thought, but certain thinkers, such as Aristotle were essentially lost prior to their rediscovery. Platonic philosophy informed St. Augustine's thought, but it wasn't really until the time of St. Thomas Aquinas that Aristotle took his place of prominence in Catholic and Christian thought.
But either way, the fact is that the Byzantines were conquered by the Muslims, the Muslims gained access to Greek philosophy from them and later on, Western Christendom gained access to forgotten elements of Greek literature and thought from the Muslims.
St. Basil was caring for the sick and setting up places like hospitals long before Islam.
