| Dec 17, 2024 at 22:09 | comment | added | user90486 | ארקדיוס – The Angel of the LORD is not God, but the firstborn Son of God. As such, he is the exact image of God, the representative of the Most High and the sole mediator between God and men. | |
| Dec 17, 2024 at 22:06 | comment | added | ארקדיוס | Have you listened to the interview yet? Why do I think you haven't? The angel of the LORD is God. | |
| Dec 17, 2024 at 21:28 | comment | added | user90486 | ארקדיוס – Calling the Messiah "Everlasting Father" and "Mighty God" is much more severe than "Angel of Great Counsel". The former attaches epithets of God to the Messiah, but tye latter ascribes to him the position of the Firstborn Angel of God. | |
| Dec 17, 2024 at 20:15 | comment | added | ארקדיוס | "The text of the Great Isaiah Scroll contains scribal errors, corrections & more than 2600 textual variants when compared with the Masoretic codex. This level of variation in 1QIsaa is much greater than other Isaiah scrolls found at Qumran, with most, such as 1QIsab, being closer to the Masoretic Text. Some variants are significant & include differences in one or more verses or in several words. Most variants are more minor & include differences of a single word, alternative spellings, plural versus single usage, and changes in the order of words." en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isaiah_Scroll | |
| Dec 17, 2024 at 20:12 | comment | added | ארקדיוס | Probably not. We will never know what the original rendering was. But it was definitely closer to MT rendering. Which was standardized at the end of the end of the first century AD. Before that, they had different renderings of that text, and did not see any problem with it. | |
| Dec 17, 2024 at 8:49 | comment | added | user90486 | So do you think that the LXX could be the original rendering? | |
| Dec 17, 2024 at 7:07 | comment | added | ארקדיוס | As I stated at the beginning of my post, I was mainly trying to answer your second question, which is: What was the reason for crafting the different rendering? | |
| Dec 17, 2024 at 6:58 | comment | added | ארקדיוס | Have you listened to the interview? | |
| Dec 17, 2024 at 4:21 | comment | added | user90486 | Are you proposing that the Jonathan Targum has the original rendering? If not, what do you believe is the original rendering, and what does it mean? | |
