| 2: | The true Bible story of Noah's Ark The Bible is God's key that unlocks world history. Introduction 1. The Septuagint chronology is original and the Masoretic chronology was corrupted by the Jews at Zippori in 160 AD a. The correct Septuagint chronology says that Noah died in 2948 BC, hundreds of years before Abraham was born in 2166 BC b. The corrupt Masoretic chronology says Noah died in 2168 BC, 58 years after Abraham was born in 2166 BC. In other words. Abraham was 58 years old when Noah died but this is certifiably wrong. Jewish tradition, based upon the corrupt Masoretic chronology, has long viewed Shem as Melchizedek, who died when Jacob was 50. The correct Septuagint chronology says that Shem died in 2796 BC, hundreds of years before Jacob was born in 2006 BC. Again, this Jewish tradition is impossible to reconcile with the flood, Tower of Babel, population dynamics and the archeology of Dynasty 0 of Egypt and the first pyramids in 2650 BC. 2.

(Steven Rudd, 2017) Author's Preface and Introduction: The very first Synagogue on earth was the "Great Basilica Synagogue of Alexandria (Egypt: 280 BC - 117 AD) referenced by Philo in 38 AD, which the Jerusalem Talmud in 400 AD says Hadrian destroyed in 117 AD. Synagogues originated in 280 BC at Alexandria, Egypt as a direct result of Ptolemy II translating the Hebrew Torah in the Greek Septuagint. In fact, by Philo 38 AD, Explicitly dated the origin of Synagogues to 262 BC in Egypt. By the time of Jesus, there were thousands of synagogues in the world and more than 400 in Jerusalem alone. The Greek Tanakh (LXX) was the "standard issue, Jerusalem certified" translation used in every synagogue because Hebrew was functionally extinct in the world by 100 BC.

| 6: | Acapella Responsive Singing, No Instruments in first century ... Synagogue worship was the prototype for Christian Church. Introduction: 1. Synagogue worship at the time of Jesus' birth was acapella, antiphonal, responsive with no instruments. 2. Instrumental music was banned in all synagogues in the first century before 70 AD and the early church continued this ban to the present time. 3. Congregational singing is explicitly authorized while instruments are not: a. Col 3:16 and Eph 5:19 were letters to be read while in the assembly: "When this letter is read among you, have it also read ***in the church*** [while assembled] of the Laodiceans; and you, for your part read my letter that is coming from Laodicea." (Colossians 4:16). Also both are "one another" passages where you "speaking to one another in song" and "teaching and admonishing one another in song". This can only be collective worship on the first day of the week when Christians are assembled for the Lord's supper and the weekly collection. b.

The Jews in 160-200 AD corrupted the Genesis chronology for anti-Christian purposes unknowingly following in the footsteps of Ezra in 458 BC who, for anti-Samaritan purposes, changed the location of Joshua's alter from Mt. Gerizim to Mt Ebal as he converted the Paleo-Hebrew Tanakh into Aramaic Hebrew. Noah got drunk, David committed adultery. Perhaps this one textual corruption was Ezra's great sin.

F R. Judah says, "It is seventy." G And how do we know that a small one is twenty-three? H Since it is said, The congregation shall judge, and The congregation shall deliver (Num. 35:24, (25)- I one congregation judges, and one congregation saves-thus there are twenty. J And how do we know that a congregation is ten? Since it is said, How long shall I bear with this evil congregation [of the ten spies] (Num. 14:27)-xcluding Joshua and Caleb. K And how do we know that we should add three more? L From the implication of that which is said, You shall not follow after the many to do evil (Ex. 23:20), I derive the inference that I should be with them to o good. M If so, why is it said, After the many to do evil? N Your verdict of acquittal is not equivalent to your verdict of guilt.

They reused the original unlevel, unsquare foundation from the original synagogue because of its historic importance. d. The basalt foundation, therefore was saved as a memorial to the ancient first century synagogue. e. "Two structures from Capernaum are of particular interest to students of biblical archaeology.

| 46: | First Century Synagogue Top Plans: Cana 40 BC Antigonus II, 40-37 and likely much earlier. Hasmoneans where a spiritual group of Jewish zealots who would certainly built a synagogue in their home town if one did not exist when they first arrived. The fact that Antigonus and Josephus (also a zealot) both resided at Cana is powerful literary evidence that pushes the SOD date into the first century BC. Equally important is the fact that Nathanael, the most spiritual of all of Jesus' twelve apostles, lived in Cana in 30 AD. Certainly he would live in a town with a synagogue. The Hasmonean coins, pottery, first century stoneware and plaster from the synagogue excavation all prove there was a synagogue here when Jesus performed the miracle at the wedding feast. Most noteworthy is the 6 unused stoneware pots used for the miracle of the water into wine. It is most likely that the wedding took place in one of the adjoining buildings as part of the Synagogue complex. Why would six huge and very expensive stoneware pots be there in the first ... ... ...https://www.bible.ca/synagogues/Cana-bible-ancient-synagogues-first-century-oldest-pre70AD-Jesus-archeology-top-plan-khirbet-qana-John2-miracle-water-wine-stoneware-pot-pillar-mikveh-30bc.htm | Size: 68K Depth: 2 Find Similar Match Info Show Parents |
