Old Testament

In the Bible Moses who was called by God to lead the people, was a good man and he followed the word of God. But he did make a major mistake . And it was God told Moses to speak to the rock in the desert, as the people were crying out for water in the heat. But Moses stroked the rock and water gushed out. So as a punishment Moses was not allowed to put his foot in the promised land.

I'm not sure specifically how many there are. There are 31 chapters, but most of these chapters contain many proverbs (plus, the chapter and verse distinctions were not in the original text).

I've been looking for this too, but I can't find it.

Guess I'll have to count.

• 1) King Solomon built the First Temple in Jerusalem.
• 2) Through his vast God-given wisdom (1 Kings ch.3), he spoke and taught about God's creations, influencing many nations (at least temporarily) to recognize the wisdom of God. This was similar to the practice of Abraham (Genesis 21:33) and is what is meant by "And he [Solomon] spoke of the trees, from the cedars of Lebanon to the hyssop that grows on the wall; and he spoke of the animals, the birds, the insects, and the fishes. And people came from all nations to hear the wisdom of Solomon, from all kings of the earth, who had heard of his wisdom" (1 Kings 5:13-14).
• During Solomon's time, the Israelites enjoyed unequaled prosperity (1 Kings 4:20).
• 3) King Solomon wrote Ecclesiastes (Kohellet), Proverbs, and Song of Songs.

The cloth draped over the Ark of the Covenant was a specific shade of blue called "tekhelet." This blue color was significant in ancient Israelite religious practices and symbolized the divine presence. The use of tekhelet in the tabernacle and later the temple was a reminder of God's covenant with the Israelites.

Well, isn't that a lovely question! 144 cubits is equal to about 216 feet. Isn't it amazing how different units of measurement can help us see things in a new light? Just imagine all the beautiful landscapes you could measure with that knowledge!

The Bible has 66 books. 39 of which are in the Old Testament. That's roughly 59% of the Bible.

The math above, while quick, is not entirely accurate. A number of books in the Old Testament such as Psalms and Jeremiah, are incredibly long. In fact, the nine longest books in the Bible are all in the Old Testament. Of the seven shortest books in the Bible, six are from the New Testament. Therefore, it is probably more accurate to say that 75% of the Bible's pages are Old Testament.

Just judging by the Jewish culture and values, it's almost certain that the prophet Jonah

had a wife and children, although they're not mentioned in the book named for him. The

Hebrew scriptures are thoroughly frugal in their verbosity. An individual is named if s/he

is an important component of the message, and not named if s/he isn't.

My name is Michal. It is a very common name in Israel. The correct way to pronounce it involves some phlegm, like in "Chanukah" or "Challah (bread).

Mi sounds like the word "me", and "chal" starts with the phlegmy "ch" and rhymes with (closest word) haul. It's somewhere between an "au" like "haul" and uh like "up".

In Hebrew, it is spelled מיכל

MIJAL! PEPSI ;));)

There are no books in the Book of Psalms that are directly attributed to Moses. However, some Psalms are traditionally associated with him, such as Psalm 90, which is known as a prayer of Moses. Moses is also traditionally considered the author of the first five books of the Bible, known as the Pentateuch or the Torah, rather than the Psalms.

II Timothy 2:15 "Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth."

Understanding figures of speech used in the Bible is a vital skill we can develop as workmen of God's Word. The scriptures are to be taken literally whenever possible. But when a word or phrase is inconsistent with reality, it is a figure of speech. Consider the direct wording of the following verses.

James 1:13 "Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man:"

Romans 8:32 "He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?"

John 10:10 "...I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly."

In very literal terms, these passages emphasize that God is never a source of difficulty but of abundance in life. Yet, because of the deceptiveness of the world, our minds are hesitant to accept this as reality, although God's Word says it is true. Utilizing figurative language, Psalms further emphasizes God's goodness.

Psalms 84:11 "For the LORD God is a sun and shield: the LORD will give grace and glory: no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly."

Many scriptures confirm that God is a spirit and is not literally a sun and shield. The phrase is readily understood as a metaphor, a figure of speech. God has used a departure from the literal as a means of divine emphasis, allowing us to picture Him as a sun and shield.

In this example, we have seen that by acclimatizing to the reality presented by clear and direct passages in God's Word, we gain skill in understanding verses with figurative wording. We have also grown in our appreciation that despite all deceptive evidence to the contrary, God's nature is to enhance life.

Acts 17:25 "...seeing he giveth to all life, and breath, and all things;"

Jealously has no set schedule and can arise at any moment.

The Bible only mentions the three sons that Noah had pre-flood. Shem, Ham, and Japheth.

After listing 70 offspring of the sons of Noah, the Genesis account says: “From these the nations were spread about in the earth.”​—Ge 10:32

This Scripture indicates that Noah didn't have other sons post-flood.

GOD's plan for men in creation, first God is an architect who decided to create us after his likeness at the same time he wanted us to dominate the earth while reproducing after ourselves. The essence of our creation is also to worship him by loving him and loving one another (agape love). kindly follow my page on YouTube with this link. UCSkT4bzBlR9cE8gSIQvN-Nw

It was originally written in Hebrew.

I'd love to dive into this topic with you.

The short answer is: no, there isn't a specific verse in the Bible that explicitly states one will go to hell if not baptized. But the Bible does emphasize the importance of baptism as a symbol of our faith and a public declaration of our commitment to follow Jesus.

In Mark 16:16, Jesus says, "Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned." Here, Jesus highlights the significance of faith and baptism, but notice that the emphasis is on belief, not solely on baptism.

In fact, the Bible teaches that salvation comes through faith in Jesus Christ alone (Ephesians 2:8-9, Romans 3:24-25). Baptism is an outward expression of that inward faith, but it's not the sole determining factor for our eternal destiny.

That being said, as Christians, we're called to follow Jesus' example and teachings, which include being baptized as a symbol of our new life in Him (Matthew 28:19, Romans 6:3-4). So, while baptism isn't a direct ticket to heaven or hell, it's an important step in our spiritual journey and a public declaration of our faith.

Hope this helps clarify things!

Yassa (يَسَّى)

The Islamic Sources do not name Hazrat Dawood's father, so as is traditional in cases where the Qur'an repeats or interprets a Biblical narrative and information in the Biblical narrative is not overturned, information in the Biblical Account is considered sound in Islam. In this case, the Biblical account names King David's (Hazrat Dawood) father as Jesse (Yishai in Hebrew). Arabic-language Bibles record the name as Yassa (يَسَّى).

Daniel was able to interpret the meaning of the handwriting on the wall, which foretold Belshazzar's downfall and the end of his kingdom. He warned Belshazzar of the impending judgment for his arrogance and disregard for God.

There is no reference to the Apostles in the OLD Testament.

The Old Testmant is full of prophets, priests, and kings.

The New Testament had the twelve apostles, the followers of Jesus Christ.

Abraham's wife was Sarah. She is often considered as one of the matriarchs of Judaism and Christianity, famously known for giving birth to Isaac in her old age.

They are NOT Chapters, but BOOKS.

There are 39 books in the Old Testament.

Each Book is divided intoi chapterts, and each chapter is divided into vereses.

The word 'Bible' is from Classical Greekm and means 'The BOOK'.
