How does that make any difference?

No more so than we are today.

Of course they weren't MORE able to see the sun doesn't orbit the Earth. We'd expect some of their scientific claims to be incorrect. Such as the Earth being that around which all the heavens revolve. We also wouldn't expect them to understand that the sun has gravity and that gravity affects Earth. Lo and behold, they did get those things wrong. But, if the Bible is 100% true, their errors of ignorance must be rationalized with convoluted apologetics (cramming square pegs into round holes) or ignored. You obviously think the former has some value.

Why do you frequently but not always substitute "-" for "o" in God?

Why do you say Jehoveh and not Yahweh?

To make the generalized distinction between the xian god and the hebrew hashem.
To keep it short.
And in the third place because i do not use Adonai or adonai so i do not see the point of going along with the socalled new-fad of replacing every mention with LORD or Lord or lord.

The Bible is hardly a trendy book.

Why don't you just talk normal like everyone else and if folks don't know the uses of the various names it won't be any worse than trying to decipher what you've got up your sleeve.

You are the only one insisting on this New Living Bible usage!
i'll bet you even use it quoting from a different version. ;)

As if they could not simply use the various name-attributes given to HaShem -the name, as and when they occur. For the simple reason that those also add to the meaning and thus understanding.
It's not as if they are jewish and have to make a correct copy (replacing YHVH with four blank spots and only in that case)...which they did not anyways...they just removed the grosest errancies.
It's misguiding replacement theology.

interesting micro-organisms found in the Dead Sea.
including craters that fill the sea with sweet water. A high magnesium content is also rather deadly normally.
An other interesting phenomena is that the halogen Bromide is driving oxidation of Mercury above the Dead Sea 45 degrees celsius at times.
Which normaly only occurs above the poles.

So all very interesting but i've nt found an update.

KAB wiki the Ramon crater in Israel.
500 Million y.a.- 8000 y.a. a huge inland sea dried up and eroded to a visible level of 200 million y.a.
Lot's of even huge Ammonites found.
Also a volcano has been active. Quick flowing lava.
(I found no data on it's last activity)
The water flowing west was by an uplift directed east.
Since those 8000 years nothing changed in the landscape that contains one sweet water source nowadays.

It's a bit like catching up with the battle of jericho that happened in jeruzalem, joshua and molochs bull and the temple destroyed in 422, though jeremiah helped by moloch worshippers still declared a major prophet even though he stole the temple-accoutrements to give to a royal bum...and the LORD declared a dissimulating liar,éh?

just running to keep up here.:)

end quote
meant is mercury oxidation...not polar maxims of 45 degree celsius.

Misgiuding replacement theology. That's what you're doing. I'm just trying to figure out why.

C'mon, you didn't just dream that G_d thing up yourself.

nah, that g-d thing has been in long use.
No idea of it's origin but usefull, thus here to stay.

Replacement theology is acting as if jesus is in anyway relevant, or for that matter any translation that is not true to the jewish philosophy*. Some won't mind, but i get pretty tired looking up the original or even having to figure the relevance of the socalled new testament and thus the way those christian creationist minds interpret literally, because f.i. john said so.

*I will however not adhere to some extreme orthodox reading that for weird reasons makes too much allowances to even extreme right viewpoints. Having iran in mind and that unholy conference set up by Ahmadineyad.
And frankly i'm not alone in the different interpretation.
Which term is a clear stab at replacement.

A Dead Sea level rise of 70 meters in the time of Herod.
Curious that such an event was not remarked upon.
It is speculated to have been the reason to safeguard the DSS qumranscrolls in higher places.

KAB
One year erosion damage, in the arid Negev that at timed intervals has winter flashfloods in the wadi's leading and near the shores of the Dead Sea.
