Succoth appears to be given to the tribe of Gad.
"And Moses gave inheritance unto the tribe of GAD, even unto the children of GAD according to their families. And their coast was Jazer, and all the cities of Gilead, and half the land of the children of Ammon, unto Aroer that is before Rabbah; And from Heshbon unto Ramathmizpeh, and Betonim; and from Mahanaim unto the border of Debir; And in the valley, Betharam, and Bethnimrah, and SUCCOTH, and Zaphon, the rest of the kingdom of Sihon king of Heshbon, Jordan and his border, even unto the edge of the sea of Chinnereth on the other side Jordan eastward. This is the inheritance of the children of GAD after their families, the cities, and their villages." Jos 13:24-28
I'm sure what Mishael was stating is only that Jesus was not "conceived" by a human father or man. The Holy Ghost conceived Mary and He was born of a virgin. God in Heaven was His only real Father. Joseph the Carpenter was His earthy "dad" as I'm sure Mishael knows.
God Bless.
Blessings and thanks.
how to understand: I, me, Thou, my, Son, I, three?
it's easy to consider the I as anointed. but reading verse 6 and 8. it is the Lord who was talking.
Son is the same as verse 12? in many chinese translated version it is interpreted as anointed.
Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the RIGHT HAND OF GOD, who also maketh intercession for us.
Romans 8:27
And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God.
Folks, this is the Godhead. Jesus did not let Mary Magdalene touch him, because he had not yet ascended to heaven to assume the position of High Priest.
He is in heaven where the 2 scriptures say what He is doing. When this age closes, the Father will tell the Bridegroom to go get His Bride.
The Holy Spirit is on earth now performing His ministry. Jesus went to the Cross to give believers the Holy Spirit who indwells each believer with the spirit of Christ.
He comforts, teaches, baptizes, SPEAKS, strives with sinners, creates, renews, convicts, anoints, guides, empowers, sanctifies, gives gifts, illuminates, reveals, truth of God, and much more.
After the catching up of the Church, His ministry will be diminished.
I would say I have a close relationship with Him. I pray, talk with, worship Jesus, read huge chunks of the Bible daily, sit still until He teaches me what I just read, He sharpens my spiritual discernment, corrects me often. I cannot express the inner JOY it is to covet being in His presence! He speaks to me at home, in the car, taking a walk. He gives words of knowledge and words of wisdom.
why?? Because He knows I am smitten with Jesus, and the Father that Jesus wants us to know. I'm going to do or say whatever he tells me.
My most favorite time is in silence, listening intently for Him. I sing-He sings. One time he sang, "I walk the Line" by Johnny Cash!
Get to know Him! He's a real Person who happens to be invisible to our eyes; but visible in the spirit; to hearts and to our spirit inside, ears. Be as close as you desire. Read 10 virgins story. The OIL is the Holy Spirits JOY.

When you besiege a city for a long time, while making war against it to take it, you shall not destroy its trees by wielding an ax against them; if you can eat of them, do not cut them down to use in the siege, for the tree of the field is man's food. Only the trees which you know are not trees for food you may destroy and cut down, to build siegeworks against the city that makes war with you, until it is subdued.
a. When you besiege a city for a long time: When an army surrounded a city during a siege, the army would forage around the countryside for supplies. Needing wood for building and fuel, it would be common for the besieging army to cut down trees in the area around the city.
b. Only the trees which you know are not trees for food you may destroy and cut down: However, God commanded Israel against cutting down trees for food when they besieged a city. They had to take a long-term view (one good for the ecology) and see that their immediate need for wood was less important than the long-term good of the area.
You can Google this again if you want. There's one with a longer Jewish view on this verse if that's what you seek.
Twelve disciples witnessed the same events, but some differ because of age, occupations they had been in, experiences. The Books were written at different times. Yet, they harmonize with each other. Amazing!
Jesus knew Judas would betray Him. There is a prophesy in Psalms that was fulfilled when Judas did it.
You can Google up charts of all the prophesies in the Old Testament, and on the New Testament; that Jesus would fulfill in his life. The odds of that happening is more than all the stars in our universe! One life achieved all of that. How anyone can deny that, is without an excuse on the day of Judgment.
The charts show the prophesy scriptures, and on the same line, the scripture where Jesus fulfilled it.
You'll want to save those in your bookmarks or read list on your Google page.

Genesis 24 is a great book for those in search for a mate.
I Corinthians chapters 5 through 7: sometimes called the marriage chapters by some. It covers sexual impurity also.
I asked my son in his teens, do you want to marry a virgin, or a girl who was "experienced"?
He didn't ponder long, he said a virgin!
I'll tell the story a female teacher said once at church. It was about why God covered the woman inside with a hymen. It was a proof of virginity, but it also serves a purpose: It protects against diseases. You're not going to get STD's if you're saving yourself for marriage.
Our culture teaches the exact opposite. They try to force kids to choose gay, straight or in between in grade school. You can choose Jesus. That takes a lot of courage and inner strength.
A good marriage candidate (a man) is going to honor her choice to wait, and will protect his virgin.
That was my take on the story in Genesis 24. If only the Church would teach that. You read it and tell me what you think about it. I'm kinda old lol
