Ecclesiasticus Chapter 10 Discussion

Everyone is welcome to read, ask questions or make comments.

This website has a great search engine for finding scriptures or ask it to find all the scriptures about a particular issue or person in the Bible.

The red page you came in here with has many links you can explore, read or study with.

You have to put a scripture in the SEARCH BOX to access the Commentary Box; just scroll downward a little.

You'll enjoy the Testimonies link; others have shared how they came to choose Jesus as Savior and Lord.

There is a link 'Become A Believer' that helps us with those first days after believing Jesus for our Salvation.

People from other countries visit this room too. It's a nice place to hang out, ask questions, offer answers and just share. Someone is always in these 2 rooms: Questions or Discussion. There are 300 days of past history you can view near the bottom of each room (1-100+) every day is different. We can agree, differ and see everyone's comments.

I tell all my elderly neighbors about it because sometimes they shelter and stay at home alone lots.

It's a good place to make new friends.

Mishael

How are you?

This is a great reading source of material and ought to be published widely so people can get the truth and read it thoroughly as in Holy Bible canonized scripture.

Look up the genealogy of Noah's sons in Genesis. There you will find which son's settled certain areas of the world. There you will find who settled in the north etc etc. Hope this would help you. God bless

If he's saved you will find him

Galatians 3:26-28 (KJV) For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus.

For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ.

There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.

Where is black people in the bible

Hi Dennis.

Ephesians 5:9-13. (For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth;)

Proving what is acceptable unto the Lord.

And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them.

For it is a shame even to speak of those things which are done of them in secret.

But all things that are reproved are made manifest by the light: for whatsoever doth make manifest is light.

2 Corinthians 6:14-18. Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?

And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel?

And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.

Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you,

And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.

However we are to minister the word to them.

I hope that helps,

God bless.

Also please show me where it is stated that common law is to use small case i, to represent a man as opposed to using a capital I, representing a legal person fiction

Please show me where the accepting of a person is condemed

The Holy Ghost, being God's Spirit, is given by God to all who are His children. And here I'm talking about those who truly belong to Him - not just Church-goers, doing all the right things to please God, or even coming God's Way but actually still in love with the World.

Just to state who this true Christian is: he/she is one who has become convicted of his sins & realizes that his efforts can't save him - only God can through the death & resurrection of His Son. When the sinner repents (which is done under the influence & presence of the Holy Spirit), that sinner is forgiven based on what Jesus has done on his behalf. That is, Christ's taking your sin's & crucifying them on the Cross meant that He took your place in death, so that you won't remain spiritually dead in sins, but made spiritually alive in Christ & also acceptable to God. So we say that the sinner, once condemned for his sins, is now forgiven, redeemed & made a new person through this Work of God, i.e. he is born again in his spirit.

So, if one is born again by God, he is in the family of God, with the many others who have come the same way: through the Cross. If then in God's family, God sets His Seal in him, marking Him as one of His children. And that seal is that of the Holy Spirit who lives within the child of God, marking him as one & also receiving the full ministry of God to him: of teaching, comfort, strengthening, conviction of any sin, wisdom & power to live correctly, & many more. The Spirit never leaves, even as Jesus has promised, which means that even though we might fail God at times, we will always repent & be restored - that's God's Promise. The 'Christian' who turns back & rejects God, is one that has not come to salvation God's Way, but his own way.

If someone seeks this mighty presence of God in his life by coming any other way, then he will be disappointed: his sins remain, his life will be the unchanged & he will appear as a religious person but without God.

How do i get the Holy Ghost?

May God bless everyone here in 2021! May the Lord bless you this year and may you grow in Him and store your treasures in heaven and not on earth.

Luke ch 16 . 19-31

You may have believed, but many did not , such as the Pharisees, they actually hated him for it because it challenged their position as Gods ruling class .

2nd I recall the story of the rich man in hell , said let someone go and tell my relatives about this place , the response was if they will not believe the word of God neither will

Believe someone raised from the dead . The story is in the gospel of the NT can't recall where it is now .

How do Angels and demons battle?

Please answer me on here if you can my mail is shot. I have a question that I have thought about for a long time and have not ever got a answer but my question is when all the people saw Jesus walk on water, heal all kinds of people that had been sick there whole lives and just did so many things and preformed so many miracles on people and they saw it with there own eyes how could they still not believe in him after they saw this first hand and knew it was miracles and that he did it so why did they still not believe in him? Thanks and may God Bless You! If I saw it that is all it would take for me and I would believe in him without any doubts which I do anyway but what do you all think?

Still looking for comment I read years ago, Can anyone help ? Ezekiel lay on a bed of nails ? Andy

Mishael Thank you for trying. I know I have read it before about 40 years ago it was Ezekiel I will find it again. Have a party when I find it. Many lessons can be learnt from Ezekiel. Paul

I've written to you before.

When the Romans were fitting Jesus on the Cross, it was lying on the ground.

They NAILED Jesus hands and feet. He was at that moment, lying upon "bed of nails".

WAiting for the Romans to drop the cross into the hole that was dug. It was not a bed like as we lay upon.

In Indian culture they do it for all kinds of reasons. You can Google that.

There's nothing more I can add to this.

Why are you pursuing this?

Pursue Jesus Christ. Follow Him.

I know I have read it about 40 years ago Ezekiel lays on a bed of nails. Can someone help me find it ?

Thank you Paul

I am asking for help I read more that 40 years Ezekiel lay on a bed of nails I think old version can anyone help me to find it ?

This is a portion of Bensons Commentary. Google that scripture and then type Commentary after it. The phrase bed of nails is not in the KJB. I could only find a mention in Ezekiel of "nails".

Read this snippet of the whole commentary:

Luke 23:34, he calmly, though fervently prayed for them, and for all who had any hand in his death, beseeching God to forgive them, and excusing them by the only circumstance that could alleviate their guilt - their ignorance. Saying, Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do. This was infinite meekness and goodness, truly worthy of God's only-begotten Son; an example of forgiveness which, though it never can be equalled by any, is fit to be imitated by all. Dr. Heylin (Theolog. Lect, p. 103) has well described our Lord's passion, as follows: "The appointed soldiers dig the hole in which the cross was to be erected. The nails and the hammer are ready. The cross is placed on the ground, and Jesus lies down UPON THE GROUND ON A BED of sorrows. They NAIL him to it. They erect it. His nerves crack. His blood distils. He hangs upon his wounds," naked, "a spectacle to heaven and earth." Thus was the only-begotten Son of God, who came down to save the world, crucified by his own creatures!

I know I have read it I think Ezekiel 4 It said he lay on a bed of nails I have to find it ?

Hosea was good man he listen to God and bear children with whore that much have been hurt doing his time. But his God came first.

Commentary for: Read Genesis 44:1-17)

Joseph tried how his brethren felt towards Benjamin. Had they envied and hated the other son of Rachel as they had hated him, and if they had the same want of feeling towards their father Jacob as heretofore, they would now have shown it. When the cup was found upon Benjamin, they would have a pretext for leaving him to be a slave. But we cannot judge what men are now, by what they have been formerly; nor what they will do, by what they have done. The steward charged them with being ungrateful, rewarding evil for good; with folly, in taking away the cup of daily use, which would soon be missed, and diligent search made for it; for so it may be read, Is not this it in which my lord drinketh, as having a particular fondness for it, and for which he would search thoroughly? Or, By which, leaving it carelessly at your table, he would make trial whether you were honest men or not? They throw themselves upon Joseph's mercy, and acknowledge the righteousness of God, perhaps thinking of the injury they had formerly done to Joseph, for which they thought God was now reckoning with them. Even in afflictions wherein we believe ourselves wronged by men, we must own that God is righteous, and finds out our sin.

Google your verse, and type 'commentary' after it to read other commentaries.

I love the hymn based on Genesis 28:11

"Though like the wanderer, the sun gone down,

Darkness be over me, my rest a stone.

Yet in my dreams I'd be nearer, my God to Thee."

This reference from Genesis 17:1 tells us that God required Abram, even in old age, to always maintain the Living God in the centre of his life & to be 'perfect' (or, blameless, upright, sincere). It isn't that Abram should be sinless, as none of us can ever be, but that 'perfection' is Abram's (& our) standing before God. And in that standing, we are to be upright & sincere in our lives.

Today, through Jesus' Sacrifice & our faith in Him, are counted as blameless in God's Eyes. Not that we have done anything to secure that position, but that when God looks at us, He sees us through the death & resurrection of His Son & counts us as blameless (justified): freed from guilt & punishment. If God looked only at man's sin, we all stand guilty before Him. But God gave us His Sacrifice so that we wouldn't bear His punishment for our sins.

What does it mean that bram should walk before God and be blameless?

I read it years ago Ezekiel When it said Ezekiel lay on a bed of nails, May be a old version can someone help me find it ?

I can't be sure, but it sounds as if you may have read some commentary or an individual's transliteration or depiction of Ezekiel 4:4-6.

"Lie thou also upon thy left side, and lay the iniquity of the house of Israel upon it: according to the number of the days that thou shalt lie upon it thou shalt bear their iniquity.

For I have laid upon thee the years of their iniquity, according to the number of the days, three hundred and ninety days: so shalt thou bear the iniquity of the house of Israel.

And when thou hast accomplished them, lie again on thy right side, and thou shalt bear the iniquity of the house of Judah forty days: I have appointed thee each day for a year."

What you read might have been the person's view of Israel's & Judah's sins (the nails representing the sins that Ezekiel had to bear (under him), both on the right & left side of his body as he lay). This type of translation, I believe, requires a great stretch of the imagination: though sin can be painful & requires one's quick release from its effects & God's judgement, to think that Ezekiel had to suffer by laying on nails for over a year, is not a thought that one should entertain.

I remember years ago reading Ezekiel may be an old version Ezekiel had to lay on a bed of nails.

Can someone help me find it ?
