arguments regarding christ and jewish ways and what is a covenant at all is it a will? note note > see the bible handbook by the late joseph angus revised and in part rewritten by samuel g green 1:7 small font the hebrew form for covenant bĕrīth is rendered in the greek old testament by διαθήκη and this is the word rendered in the new testament writings and afterwards in reference to the collection of the new testament books η καινη διαθήκη the new covenant the latin vulgate renders this novum testamentum whence our title the new testament if the latin testamentum were the equivalent of διαθήκη covenant no more would need to be said but properly it is not nor can with certainty it be said that centuries of usage have quite succeeded in fixing this alien usage upon the title the greek bĕrīth has a double meaning one disposition will testament two covenant see hebrews 9:15-17 we have a little bit of a rerun of the arguments he starts wondering things and regarding hebrews having a profound affect fœdus or pactum are ditched and thusly we have a title for the completed book its a brave idea and a very holy book also η καινη ought in a proper rendering to have diacritical marks such as a tiny sea on the η and an accent descending on the καινη 2622,2623c2623,2624 < 35:22 he donned square brackets his armour note with targ full stop < 35:22 necho's words from the mouth of g-d --- > 35:22 he donned square brackets his armour note with targ full stop note note angus 2:13 the targums call the hebrew the sacred tongue 2:15 about four thirty before christ hebrew had been entirely superceded by aramaic 2:16 the jewish targums or paraphrases of the old testament books 2:25 the scribe had his em ess full stop to copy manuscript? but apart from the interpretation was practically in a foreign language 2:25:1 as originally written the hebrew consisted of consonants only so for example em tee haitch in hebrews 11:21 is rendered mittah bed and in genesis 47:21 matteh staff 2:25:2 where do we place commas or full stops? 2:25:3 about anno domini eight hundred the hebrew bible had an elaborate system of accents fixing the meaning of each word known as massoretic 2:26 some words have odd marks over them faithfully repeated in every copy sometimes we find a letter almost double the usual size sometimes one half the usual size if a word in the text was judge superfluous it was left only with consonants if a word was to be inserted it was written with only vowels if a word was to be changed the consonants were left with the vowels of the word to be substituted 28 the paraphrased translations were written down in a series of targums or interpretations folowing the return from babylon 1:8 the septuagint sometimes written in roman numerals derives its name from the seventy translators 2:29 the pentateuch is translated much more accurately than the other books is rather free than literal even allowing for these sources of error the el ecks ecks often indicates a source text different from the massoretic 2:30 the latin version from the seventy began to be appealed to by christians hence falling out of favour with the jews so jerome started again from the hebrew completing in four o five anno domini this version came to be partially included in the vulgate or current version versio vulgata 2:31 the peshitta as in correct or simple version also known as the syriac or western aramaic text agrees closely with the massoretic and includes some books of the new testament 3:36-37 the epistles of paul one peter and one john were recognized as apostolic by the close of the second century the remaining books were called antilegomena or from their forming part of the canon only after a second revision deutero canonical 3:40 η καινή with the small sea above the denuded new as the common dialect the greek is more correctly hebrew greek with many words and phrases of forign sources such as aramaic abba 3:41 from papyrus to vellum to paper with codex from caudex a tablet of wood covered in wax to be inscribed with an iron needle called a stylus two styles existed uncial all capitals and cursive miniscule rather than majiscule 3:42 the gospels τὸ εὐαγγέλιον the epistles and acts τὸ the revelation ἡ small greek letter eta with dacia one eff twenty one in unicode the dacia has a different name in the big list making me feel sad 3:50 the hebrew scriptures were printed by the jews about forty years after the invention of printing the latin vulgate two years later the greek testament about seventy years later 4:57 homœoteleuton intervening words are dropped as the eye slips to a later occurence of the same word 4:57:1 the same sound lô not or to him not is written but to him are as directed by the massoretes to be read thus isaiah 49:5 though israel be not gathered becomes though israel be gathered to him also are given examples where a change of a letter in a string of characters changes the meaning for example acts 13:18 suffered he their manners becomes bare them as a nursing father 4:57:3 synonymous expressions this very world for this present world 4:57:5 ancient manuscripts are often without the division of the words or stops 4:57:6 abbreviations may be wrongly interpreted 4:57:7 words were never divided by hyphen nor was any vacant space left it being filled with a favoured letter or the initial of the next word note mine some church informative wall hangings use a pattern imitating letters in a colour different from the text to be read 4:47:8 notes from the margin have gotten in plus the tendency to amplify scripture for example whatsoever thy hand findeth to do do it with all thy might all being in italics 4:58:10 intentional alterations to make the text more clear and easy so in the pentateuch the the word for g-d is plural elohim whereas the readings favour the singular noun whilst retaining the plural verb 5:65:2-4 all the apostles are divine the writings of the apostles produced similar effects as their preaching acts 15:19-31 5:66:5 christ and the writers of the new testament acknowledge the divine origin of the revelation given to abraham and moses and represent the jewish scripture as divine 5:69 miracles did they really happen and what do they prove? the mythical theory of strauss that allegory is turned into fact the illumination by christ of the darkened understanding gave rise to the opening of the eyes of the blind 5:70 note mine we're concentrating on jesus christ's end note miracles such as giving similar powers to his disciples the twelve and then to the seventy his apostles having the power to bestow this gift upon those whom they laid their hands they went around persuading the occupiers of cities to renounce the religion of their fathers note mine the old testament has quite a lot of changing of religion 5:71 that the miracles of christ are attributed to a divine being rather than a demon can be seen in modern times by a man appearing to hover above the ground as he prophesises having no place within the pantheon of miracles we either have christ or nothing to replace 5:72:2 the prophets follow a pattern of setting forth the laws of righteousness denouncing sins of the age declaring the judgements of g-d and calling the people to repentance 5:74 the endurance of suffering the forgiveness of injury the exercise of a submissive spirit were neither practised nor admired the romans were proud of their military glory for example although being in the army involves endurance forgiveness of injury is roman politics you plotted against me and lost good idea you can be in charge of spain 5:78 our lord went down from nazareth to capernaum a minor point in geographical consistency similarly medical authorities affirm that when the heart is pearced blood and water flow from the wound 6:83 the heathen held that under the divine impulse all voluntary action is suspended a state of ecstacy is never the view given in scripture the spirits of the prophets are subject to the prophets 1 corinthians 14:32 bishop wescott introduction to the spirit of the gospels the divine message is generally combined with the moral progress and purification of the teacher dean burgon sermons on inspiration and interpretation 1 when various persons are giving true accounts of the same incident the differences may be difficult to reconcile 2 the discovery of one minute circumstance will often suffice to remove the difficulty 6:87 natural religion man finds g-d revealed religion g-d finds man the possibility of natural religion psalms 19:1 its failures job 11:7 6:88 to pascal that wouldst not seek me hadst thou not already found me 6:89 revelation drawing back the veil is the latin equivalent of the greek ἀποκάλνψις apocalypse an uncovering as a manner of knowing revelation is separate from ordinary mental processes 6:90 the bible is written revelation because it contains the history of our redeemer and of our redemption 6:91:2 moral teaching and prophesy might have been separate note mine a prophet never gets to hear that aspect of prophecy end note what might have ministered to the gratification of natural curiosity only is enlisted on the side of practical holiness 6:93 if the reader will mark the increasing spirituality as the dawn of the gospel drew on he will understand the importance of reading the history the psalms the prophets in the order in which they were written 7:112 in sixteen o three king james appointed fifty four men to revise the translation it took four years and is known as the authorised version 7:114 the revised english bible published in eighteen eighty five two thirds of the companies had to agree on a change for it to be included of which there were a different number for the old and the new testament 7:115:1 for example genesis 36:34 mules became hot springs exodus 12:35 asked for became borrowed things that they never intended to return 7:115:2 hendiadys that is one thought in double expression romans 8:21 the liberty of the glory of the children of g-d 7:115:3 in some parts the numbers seem enormous bethshemesh a small town the LORD smote fifty thousand and seventy men by mode of notation still common among the arabians we have the LORD smote seventy men fifties and a thousand that is one thousand one hundred and seventy note mine hebrew numerals are easy to mix up they use letters with an apostrophe called garesh when their are letters and numbers mixed or for thousands the text uses two dots diacritical marks are somehow constrained to an associated letter form such as latin end note 7:116 archaic words and words that have changed their meaning for example ear eared earing becomes plow coast becomes border 7:119 the vulgate first introduced the chapters a work undertaken some say in the thirteenth century by cadinal hugo the hebrew scriptures were similary divided by mordecai nathan in fourteen fortyfive and in sixteen sixtyone athias added the division into verses these divisions tend to break the sense and obscure the meaning ans as a rule no importance is to be attached to the divisions 8:123:1 a jewishness is to add a second noun rather than an adjective as in labour of love 8:123:2 a person with a quality is the child or son of that quality is a hebrew idiom see 7:115:4-5 for the same word repeated in a sentence being translated differently and a different word being translated as the same word 8:123:3 comparison is peculiarly expressed in hebrew to love and to hate is to prefer one thing over another 8:123:4 plural nouns can indicate there are more than one of them 8:123:5 names of parents are used for their posterity 8:123:6 son of sometimes indicates descendant of 8:123:6:1 ten can mean several forty means many seven and seventy often express a large number that is complete but beyond our ken 8:123:6:3 the priest says he makes clean is to declare him clean 8:124
