Download e-book for kindle: We see this same kind of universal language in Revelation where a third of the earth is burned up, a third of mankind killed, etc.
I maintain that the same covenant context applies in both the flood account and in Revelation. So there is no reason to assume that passage in Genesis is speaking in absolute universal terms as if it references all animals on planet earth. That is the interpretive mistake the YEC's make in their reading of the flood account, and it's also the interpretive mistake that Futurists make in reading Revelation; it's why they demand a global and therefore future reference to the physical events described in the book.
My only point is these are covenant stories that apply within covenant contexts. I just think we should apply the same principles to both events. After all the flood and fire are explicitly compared over and over in both the old and new Testaments. Let me provide a quote from John H.
Since the word for rainbow is the same Hebrew word as that used for the bow weapon, this offers an interesting image. The bow was often in the armory of the divine warrior in the ancient Near East. Or your anger against the rivers, or your rage against the sea, when you drove your horses, your chariots to victory? Selah You split the earth with rivers. The sun raised high its hands; 11 the moon stood still in its exalted place, at the light of your arrows speeding by, at the gleam of your flashing spear.
You crushed the head of the wicked house, laying it bare from foundation to roof. Here is an excerpt from Bruce K. In ancient Near Eastern mythologies, stars in the shape of a bow were associated with the hostility of the gods. It appears that it simply is appropriated at this time for a covenantal imagery purpose indicative of the peace that the Holy Seed Line would expect from God in this particular manner of destruction. As far as all living creatures are concerned Walton believes from the ancient language examination that it was specialized animals that were important as food sources and is not indicative of animals that were not important to these people.
You cut me to the heart! How many times have I recommended John Walton's commentary on Genesis? I was under the mistaken impression that the word was not "bow" in Hebrew - I suspected that it was a case of imputing an English meaning to the Hebrew word, especially since coincidentally the native Germanic word for rainbow means "bow" as well.
Regardless, I remain entirely unconvinced that this is not claimed to be the first instance of a rainbow. This is the very sort of thing you expect to find in this sort of literature. It doesn't say rainbow. Several places in Scripture God took down his bow and made war. Several of those, God claimed he would destroy a people by flood. There is a consistent pattern of flood and fire in God's speaking of judgement.
Where did God actually wipe out the covenant people with a literal flood? All the rest of the floods were by literal fire. Can you suggest a good reference on ancient middle-eastern linguistics that doesn't require being able to read the languages? Wooley placed Summer in the south where the Flood was and pre-Akkadian Akkad in the north.
Other's since have placed Summer in the north and pre-Akkadian Akkad in the south. Do you have anything definitive on this issue? Gilgamesh was Sumerian and his Noah was not. Therefore, it seems reasonable to me to assume Noah was pre-Akkadian Akkadian.
This implies that pre-Akkadian Akkad was in the south. I understand Radday's statistics. I'm inclined to think you have misinterpreted his results. Radday certainly doesn't help with his poor explanation and the interpretation of complicated statistics is difficult.
I have never seen it seriously entertained that Akkad was in the south of the Fertile Crescent. All indications is that it was to the west of the Euphrates, near Babylon, Sippar, and by most accounts situated near or beneath present-day Baghdad. The archaeological record makes it impossible to believe that one Semitic man and three sons repopulated a region that was for half a millennium before and after populated and controlled by non-Semitic Sumerians; Semitic peoples did not make big marks in Sumer until after the mid-point of the third millennium.
Proto-Semitic would be the name of the language before East and West Semitic had split up. It was being spoken at the onset of the Bronze Age 4th millennium BC. I know of no single study of the various languages of the ANE, but the Routledge Semitic Languages is a good place to start for the Semitic interrelationships. I am intrigued by your confident assertion that Ziusudra was not Sumerian, given that his name is Sumerian and his name is listed among the Sumerian king lists.
I'd be interested in seeing if you considered that post BC is too late by far to have produced all the peoples the Table of Nations list. It also lists some Indo-European peoples whose proto language was being spoken approximately the same time Proto-Semitic was, a full millennium before the Shuruppak flood by conservative estimates, and in the seventh millennium BC according to glottochronological studies linguistic statistical analysis, which is also tenous. One of Radday's team was responsible for discovering and reporting the silly conclusions that Goethe and Kant were not most likely the sole authors of the works using the same set-up that Radday used on Genesis.
We both know that numbers can be crunched to say about anything. Regardless, what you're apparently relying on the most is the dating used by statistical analysis. Could you give me a summary of how this is any more credible than his evidence that Genesis had a single author? Other events can be dated relative to that. Given that spread, all other dates are suspect unless they specifically state their relation to Shurruppak's date. So take my dates in that light. I have a book that claims to be a translation of the Sumerian Gilgamesh. It names the Noah as Utnapishtim and Atrahasis, not Ziusudra.
So whats's an amateur like me to do when the experts can't agree? Or if they agree, they are still selling old uncorrected stuff from a time when they didn't. Radday tested for single author Moses versus Documentary Hypothesis. His results are not consistent with either hypothesis.
They are more consistent with one or more authors for Genesis One or two main authors for Genesis , plus possible minor authors. One author for 37 on. Because Radday divided things up on the basis of the Documentary Hypothesis, his resolution isn't any finer than that for straight text. It does not mean one author 18 out of every times as Radday's words seem to say. So Goethe wrote it all. Radday's test showed multiple narrators, one God person all the way through, one Abraham person, and one Joseph person.
This is not consistent with Mosaic authorship. This is even less consistent with the Documentary Hypothesis. To get God's, Abraham's, and Joseph's words right that is consistent with a single person , the various narrators had to be eyewitnesses to the events or heard God, Abraham, or Joseph, respectively retell the events. Nowhere does Scripture say Noah's descendants repopulated the area. Noah appears to have had at most about descendants at the tower of Babel.
According to Scripture, they were rulers. It is very difficult to get history from that era right, and it is very difficult Scripture from that era right. I think there's a pretty good consensus about the date being just after the turn of the 3rd millennium. Regardless, even a BC flood is problematic for Indo-European since the last time before the Hittite divergence was earlier than that. As for Ziusudra, he is the name in the earliest form of the Mesopotamian flood myth, sometimes called the Epic of Ziusudra.
The flood narrative in Gilgamesh somewhat slavishly followed the Akkadian Epic of Atrahasis, which contains much material common to the earlier Ziusudra story. It's can be confusing, I know.
A lot of believers will not be having fun with His ministry to them simply because they don't know Him neither do they totally comprehend his ministry to them. Bryan Allen Coming from a place of critical actual deformity, H. Dispensationalism has nothing to do with my reading the text, as I hope you understand by now. Moore makes use of key scriptures that distinctively form us as United Methodists. I'd be interested in seeing if you considered that post BC is too late by far to have produced all the peoples the Table of Nations list.
The fact remains that all indications are of a non-Semitic Noah, and even conceding a Semitic Noah insists that any flood associated with him need be much older than the commonly-accepted date for the Shuruppak flood. This is because they have evidence of a Semitic culture in Palestine from the Chalcolithic period clear through the Bronze Age. If one's experience was to concentrate on AD 70 and miss the application of Scripture today, that's not the problem of Full Preterism.
That's the problem of the individual. As for the one comment that I am going after Todd, again, false. Todd and I are good friends and continue to remain good friends. He was most appreciative of my article and we look forward to further dialogue. Someone, then, missed the point of the article. As for my not explaining my view, that was not the point of my paper. My point was to show that Todd contradicts himself in major ways, to which, it appears, he admits in a post on his site following this article there.
And, yes, Todd and I agree on a great deal of things, which is why I see a major problem with insisting that I need satan around in order to walk closely with the Lord. No one has addressed these points, yet. As far as Universalism goes, a very few historical preterists have been universalists. No big discovery there.
But, if one were to argue that FP leads to universalism, that would be a logical fallacy. Why not, on those grounds, argue that Christianity leads to universalism? After, all these universalists are Christians! Obviously, both arguments are inductive, therefore, unprovable. Universalists become universalists because of several, several factors, not just a single monolithic FP. It is a very poor argument. Todd's basic argument, so it appears to me, is that since we have the destruction of "the Death" in A. But, as I stated, and no one has dealt with this, either, every eschatology has the destruction of the Death at some point in time, be it 70 A.
Does that mean that every man will be saved at that point since the Death is destroyed? No one has shown how it does. If that were the case, then the post A. Universalism fails on many, many accounts, but the attempt by Todd to paint biblical FP as "leading" to universalism is, in my opinion, misleading and a bit underhanded. Sam, This proves Todd's point. If the first death as you seem to think is the death that came to all men You try to make the lake of fire the second death.
Yet those thrown into the lake of fire were thrown there because they were under the penalty of sin which was the cause of the first death! The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law. The first death cannot be removed without first removing sin and the law! So then YOU must explain, now that we are post AD 70, how are men judged guilty of anything and then worthy of the lake of fire? Idealism is not a response to hyper-preterism, it is a response to preterism and its only logical conclusions that those of us former full-prets now see are the only consistant conclusions.
Revelation 20 is hyperbole, yet constantly and incosistantly taken by the full preterist as the one sole literal chapter in that book. Rather than seeing the eternal defeat of the devil, death, and the wicked, by King Jesus, full preterism seeks to literalize a real devil thrown into real torment. Real death a spiritual state of being and not a substance into a real torment, and real eternal souls into a real torment.
Eight Second: The Resurrection of Mickey L. Dennis [Mickey L Dennis] on www.farmersmarketmusic.com *FREE* shipping on qualifying offers. Eight Second (paperback). The resurrection of Jesus is the central doctrine in my belief. The apostle Paul said in 1 Corinthians that if only for this life we.
Idealism sees that "death where is your victory, death where is your sting" is an ongoing fulfillment of prophecy as each new believer is resurrected from the old covenant and into the new. How then do I, Nate, proclaim an old covenant still in existence apart from the temple? Hebrews says the old covenant was a system of types and shadows that represented the the real spiritual realities.
Paul and others taught the temple and the judaistic system was in the way. They emphasised law, and showed manking what sin and death really were. The temple and laws did not create sin, they did not create death, and their destruction would not remove either. Gods holiness and mans inability to attain it. So did removing that system all of the sudden allow men to attain it? The physical things are not the fulfillment, only the revelation of the fulfillment which does not extend past the internal change of covenants one experiences when he leaves the old man and his laws of sin and the power that death holds over him, and enters the new life given only IN CHRIST.
And this is not an instantaneous entrance, but a transition we all go through. I know the lake of fire IS the second death. Read the rest of the post before calling me out on a slip. I meant that they try to make the lake of fire a literal place of eternal destruction, rather than symbolizing the utter defeat of whatever it is that was thrown into it.
Rev 20 is taken very literal in preterism, yet what is thrown into it are not beast, dragon, etc. Nate, I would disagree with your conclusion here. I am one that is accused of being one of those ridiculous "universalists. We believe that it is a metaphor of the destroying Roman Armies, as is found in other scriptures that speak of the destruction of the enemies of the Lord. Fire is a consistent metaphor for God's judgment. So it is with the Beast and False Prophet. Religion and Politics existed in Old Covenant Israel in a perverted way.
This occurs at Christ's Parousia according to scripture. Ed, Thanks for the response. I agree with what you are saying that fire is judgment, etc. However you put a nullification as a finality done in time temporally. I would put the defeat of death as one that was eternal in Christ eternal death never held the power over a believer.
It did not hold power over Moses or Abraham or anyone of faith. However that eternal truth was made manifest in time by a series of events in history that we call the old testament history and new testament history to REVEAL it to us! When you hold the nulification as something accomplished in time, by historical events, you then place it as final, and not ongoing.
Which is how you come to your "Comprehensive" ideas. It is the finality that results in consistant full preterism that we are trying to point out. There can be nothing final about a truth that is eternal. Christ was eternal, he was always divine, therefore He always had death under Him, that just was not made MANIFEST in history until AD 70, and is still being made manifest today in the lives of those who are saved continually forever.
I think you might assume a little beyond the reasonable, i. Fulfillment does not nullify it ratifies — what the Cross-Parousia event completed, i. Your lack of seeing this in regards to pantelism IMO causes you to misjudge our "comprehensiveness" as nulifying — that is a wrong call. You only really are saved when you die as a believer. You are only truly condemned when you die as an unbeliever. Did some of apostate Israel who live through the destruction then transform before dieing and then are saved from the second death which they had died while still alive, having "come to nothing"?
If you do not have an historical end then how do you have a last Adam in history? When it says, "hold fast firm until the end" what end is that and for whom? I'm completely lost here bro. BTW, thanks bro for pointing out the obvious historical implications of full preterism. And I am not being sarcastic. Thank God someone is!!! I was battling universalism, battling Ed Stevens etc. When I came up with much the same conclusions as Sam to try to explain the "what now. Like the Holy Spirit's ministry today, gospel preaching, etc. Todd saw these things and smiled. Then one day he shared some biblical rules.
Like the external is only a show of the internal truth, and thereefore cannot be the essence themselves using Hebrews, etc. He had a few of these. I took mental note. I then looked into these basic principles of the natural vs. I wasn't trying to make all of it applicable, I was doing the opposite.
