I am a new Christian (around 2 weeks) and I've recently started reading the bible. So far, I've made it to Noah's ark and it's a really interesting story. I pray to God each day and ask for forgiveness and for him to protect my friends and my family. Could you make a video about what to do if you're a new Christian and cover topics such as how to study the bible and how to pray to God? I feel like it would be beneficial for new Christians such as myself and even older Christians

[@JmonVids]

I've got some good news for you. One of the disciples asked Jesus how to pray, and he taught them how to pray with the Lord's prayer. The Lord's Prayer appears twice in the Bible. The first is in Matthew 6:9-14, and the second is in Luke 11:2-4. I won't quote the whole prayer here, but the main takeaways are that we ask God to provide for us, we ask God to forgive us for our sins while we forgive others who sin against us, and we ask that God protect us from evil.

[@ProbeScout]

I commend you from starting from the beginning, though that's probably not the best course to take for your experience. Wonderful questions, and if I can weigh in a little myself, I have found studying and reading prayers in scripture to teach me a lot.

Let's not forget that since 4th century BC, Greek culture and language creeped in through Judah by the rule of Alexander the Great and the Hellenistic period. Tobit might've been originally written in Aramaic due to the geographical lingua franca. Wisdom of Solomon & 2 Maccabees are originally Greek and reflect Hellenistic culture. BTW, this doesn't discount them at all - they're still scripture. The rest are likely originally Hebrew, especially Judith and Baruch by style. If I may rant... It's not surprising at all that 2nd century Jews rejected everything after Daniel (chronologically, or Malachi categorically) since Rabbinic Judaism is not the same thing as Judaism at the time of Christ. Furthermore, we can see through the Talmud and other Rabbinic texts that they reject Hellenistic ideals for more "traditional" principles that establish a lens for bias against the scripture in question.

Catholics use the 7 books because 1: they were included in the canon used by some groups of Jews. there was no set canon at that time, and different groups used different canons. the only agreed upon scrolls were the scrolls of moses. one scroll is one book to us. in the varying canons, however, there wasn't one that eliminated all 7 of those scrolls, but still had all of the other books as canon. 2: because in 385 they set the canon with those books. 3. luther declared them questionable, and moved them to the appendix of the old testament. he did so after lossing multiple debates with Catholic Theologians who were able to destroy his theology with these books. He also questioned the validity of James and Revelation, becuase they also got in the way of the traditions he wanted to make. printers removed them all together in the 1800s to cut cost.

As you probably know, Catholic Bibles have 73 books, 46 in the Old Testament, and 27 in the New Testament. Protestant Bibles have 66 books with only 39 in the Old Testament. The books missing from Protestant Bibles are: Tobit, Judith, Baruch, Wisdom, Sirach, 1 and 2 Maccabees, and parts of Esther and Daniel. They are called the 'Deuterocanonicals' by Catholics and 'Apocrypha' by Protestants. Martin Luther, without any authority whatsoever, removed those seven books and placed them in an appendix during the reformation. They remained in the appendix of Protestant Bibles until about 1826, and then they were removed altogether. Please be mindful of the fact that those seven books had been in Bibles used by all Christians from the very foundation of Christianity.😊😊 Hellenistic Greek was the language of the day during the time of Christ. This was due to the fact that Alexander the Great had conquered the region several hundred years before. The Hebrew language was on its way out, and there was a critical need for a translation of the Hebrew Old Testament for dispersed Greek speaking Jews. This translation, called the Septuagint, or LXX, was completed by Jewish scholars in about 148 B.C. and it had all of the books, including the seven removed by Martin Luther over 1650 years later. The New Testament has about 350 references to Old Testament verses. By careful examination, scholars have determined that 300 of these are from the Septuagint and the rest are from the Hebrew Old Testament*. They have shown that Jesus Christ Himself, quoted from the Septuagint. Early Christians used the Septuagint to support Christian teachings. For the first 300 years of Christianity, there was no Bible as we know it today. Christians had the Old Testament Septuagint, and literally hundreds of other books from which to choose. The Catholic Church realized early on that she had to decide which of these books were inspired and which ones weren't. The debates raged between theologians, Bishops, and Church Fathers, for several centuries as to which books were inspired and which ones weren't. In the meantime, several Church Councils or Synods, were convened to deal with the matter, notably, Rome in 382, Hippo in 393, and Carthage in 397 and 419. The debates sometimes became bitter on both sides. One of the most famous was between St. Jerome, who felt the seven books were not canonical, and St. Augustine who said they were. Protestants who write about this will invariably mention St. Jerome and his opposition, and conveniently omit the support of St. Augustine. I must point out here that Church Father's writings are not infallible statements, and their arguments are merely reflections of their own private opinions. When some say St. Jerome was against the inclusion of the seven books, they are merely showing his personal opinion of them. Everyone is entitled to his own opinion. However, A PERSONS PRIVATE OPINION DOES NOT CHANGE THE TRUTH AT ALL. There are always three sides to every story, this side, that side, and the side of truth. Whether Jerome's position, or Augustine's position was the correct position, had to be settled by a third party, and that third party was the Catholic Church. Now the story had a dramatic change, as the Pope stepped in to settle the matter. In concurrence with the opinion of St. Augustine, and being prompted by the Holy Spirit, Pope St. Damasus I, at the Council of Rome in 382, issued a decree appropriately called, "The Decree of Damasus", in which he listed the canonical books of both the Old and New Testaments. He then asked St. Jerome to use this canon and to write a new Bible translation which included an Old Testament of 46 books, which were all in the Septuagint, and a New Testament of 27 books. ROME HAD SPOKEN, THE ISSUE WAS SETTLED. "THE CHURCH RECOGNIZED ITS IMAGE IN THE INSPIRED BOOKS OF THE BIBLE. THAT IS HOW IT DETERMINED THE CANON OF SCRIPTURE.

[@therealong]

@bibleman8010 I would rather say the Septuagint (LXX) was written in Hellenistic Greek, the classical Attic, while Koine Greek was the one that took over as a lingua franca dialect, and with which the NT was written. The LXX dates as far back as to the 3rd century BC, and over 15 years ago I had all my files saved on another computer and knew the exact story of its translation, which unfortunately I don't have at hand right now. I kind of remember though, that for its translation the Egyptian King Ptolemy II seems to have chosen six members of each of the Twelve Tribes of Israel, which multiplied gives 72. Just for the record, the Apocrypha consist of a variety of other newer writings, incl. gospels and apocalyptic texts, while the Deuterocanonical refer only to the 7 books of the OT. St. Jerome was indeed a skilled translator and philologist, who added lots of commentary notes in his translations, and he seems to have later suggested a more accurate translation which could do justice to certain Hebrew terms used in the OT. However, the discovery of the Qumran scroll has also permitted to revise and correct certain terms and thus render even more faithfully the meaning of certain terms as the sacred authors intended them. Nowadays all the previous is already history. What is most important is to have a Bible that is as reliable as possible and doesn't contain unnecessary disambiguation.

[@InitialPC]

the church believed all of the books of the septuagint were inspired, catholics removed some like 3 and 4 maccabees luther did not remove the books, he was not the only catholic to reject the deuterocanon as canon there are other examples, jerome is another at the top of my head he also did not refer to the deuterocanon as apocrypha he referred to it as deuterocanon, in his words the books were good to read but were not the word of god, a sentiment I share (I really like tobit)

[@therealong]

To say that the apostles didn’t quote from the sepuagint is a blatant lie. There are several verses in the NT that are scholarly proven to quote from the Septuagint and not the TaNaKh

[@pierogitozycie8426]

1) Origin of Old Testament isn't that simple. Linguistic analysis shows that the oldest text isn't anything in Torah, but probably Song of Deborah in Judges (Nevi'im). And the beginning of Genesis might be created after the Exile as it looks like a polemic with Enuma Elish. Also difference between parts caused three hypotheses about composition of the Torah: Documentary, Supplementary and Fragmentary. So it's unlikely that Moses is the direct author of the Pentateuch. And it isn't written anywhere it's otherwise. It's a part of an oral tradition. And here's a question to you: Why treating oral tradition of Jews as a fact and rejecting oral tradition of early Christians? 2) First Temple was destroyed, but the Second One was build like... 50 years later. and it stood for 600 years. So in theory you had your central authority and the post-temple judaism was formed after 70 AD. Alongside the final canon of Tanach. As in times of Jesus we had whole spectrum of believes what counts and what doesn't. Sadducees believed only in Torah while Pharisees used bigger canon, but didn't have work out any consensus. Even in times of Rabbi Akiva there were several ongoing discussions. And there are Essenes. As findings from Qumran showed us, they have the biggest catalogue and even were using books we're didn't know before. 3) Theory of two canons is outdated and debunked. As stated in previous point, there was none or whole spectrum. Depends on definition. Also now we know that Tobit, Sirach, 1 Maccabees, Judith and the rest were originally written in hebrew/aramaic. We even posses fragments. From mentioned by me Qumran which also proofs that those texts were used in Judea in time of Jesus. They never were something unique to diaspora in Egypt. However to be honest, Wisdom of Solomon and 2 Maccabees were created in Greek. 4) So Rabbinic Jews doesn't include Deuterocanonical Books, because they're not a part of Hebrew Canon and Protestants do the same, because Jesus and Apostles didn't quote them while Catholics have opposite opinion, because *insert random and internal reasoning* XD This argument is so Protestant. Always wondering why are you doing this? Because if you'll go into details, viewers might conclude that Catholics could be right? First of all, there was no Hebrew Canon when paths of Christians and Rabbinic Jews split apart. Also all Churches were recognizing most Deuterocanonical Books. Only Luther changed it. And 300 out of 350 quotations of Old Testament in New Testament are compatible with Septuagint, not Masoretes. Also books of Ecclesiastes, Song of Solomon, Zephaniah, Nahum, Ezra, Nehemiah, Obadiah, and Esther are not quoted either. Yet no Protestant has a problem with including them in their canon. And where did you got that Deuterocanonical Books aren't quoted? You have a full list on Scripture Catholic.

It's a good video, but you were wrong to say that the difference between major and minor prophets is their importance. In fact, it's just the size of the books. Another point is that you missed the opportunity to substantiate that, Jesus being the Word of God itself, is the basis on which we consider the writings of the prophets and apostles to be inspired and that because he was a Palestinian Jew, he was probably referring to the Canon Hebrew when he stated that scripture is inspired by God. Finally, you could have said that the Apostles already referred to each other's writings as scripture and the Word of God (2 Peter 3:15-16, 1 Timothy 5:18 and 1 Thessalonians 2:13), before the church later defined the Canon of the Bible, which shows that its definition was not a determination, but a recognition.

Comes from German of course, and stands for Jahwist (as in Yahweh in a more anglo form, the tetragrammaton/ The LORD), Elohist, Priestly, and Deuteronomy. These refer to 4 basic sources that are viewed as being used to create what we call the books of Moses. According to the theory, Deuteronomy comes from the Deuteronomist source of course, a lot of material in places like Leviticus comes from the Priestly, and most of the stories come from the Jahwist or Elohist sources, the specific means in the theory to distinguish depends on the name used for God in a passage. Essentially, each source is viewed as coming from different places, usually the J source being viewed as the oldest at around the 10th century bc, E source at 9th centure, P source in the 5th century, and D 6th century I do believe. There is a lot of reasons why people subscribe to such ideas, and a lot of things it deals with well. Personally, I do not believe in the theory's accuracy and find it unable to successfully interpret what happens in a number of passages, such as Genesis chapter 6. Sorry for the long text wall, I just hope to explain accurately, as relatively few I know are familiar with stuff like this. TL;DR 4 different sources from different time periods are believed by some to be used to compile the pentateuch post exile

[@kmxproducoes6070]

​​​@@faboomkomapper the theory that Pentateuch has been composed, mixing four sources written in different times of Israel's History the Yahwhist "J" and Elohist "E" sources written in early time of Monarchy, the Deuteronomist "D" source written mostly during time of Kings Hezekiah and Josiah and later expanded, and the Priestly "P" source written after the babilonian exile With Genesis, Exodus and Numbers based in J, E and P, Leviticus written based only in P and Deuteronomy as the name says based on Deuteronomist source, for more look at Useful Charts Channel or search for that in other sources

Moses also learned from his father in law, Jethro, who was a descendant of both Abraham through Keturah, and Bethuel, father of Rebekah and grandfather of Leah and Rachel. He also would have had access to the historical documents of Egypt. Moses created a new written language with the Torah. Its implied that Daniel collated the Deuteronomistic history during the time of exile.

A note on "the law and gospel". While indeed some do call it such, there are others that make a much different distinction, stating that both the old and new testament contain both law (y'all do this) and gospel (God does this). For example the sermon on the mount is considered law, while prophecies about how God will save Israel (crushing the serpent's head, dry bones coming to life, purifying with sprinkling of clean water) are considered gospel.

5:46 check out Joe heshmeyer shameless popery about the deuterocanon referenced in the New testament. Not all protocannon books are mentioned or quoted in the New testament including Ruth and Chronicles, where there are some references to Tobit and Maccabees in the New testament. Off the top of my head, the seven Angels that Sir Minister to God in Revelation are mentioned more explicitly in Tobit. Also, the festival of lights, Hanukkah, is mentioned in the New testament which is from Maccabees 1. There's also a litany in Hebrews that is very similar to the litany in 2 Maccabees

[@pierogitozycie8426]

Also on Scripture Catholic we have full list of deuterocanocial quotations and 300 out of 350 references to the Old Testament are compatible with Septuagint, not Masoretes. Also theory of two canons is outdated and debunked. Deuterocanonical books weren't writtn in Greek by Egyptian diaspora. They were originally hebrew/aramaic (with exclusion of 2 Machabees and Wisdom) and used in Judea in times of Jesus. We know it from Qumran.

So, basically, the bible is divided in two parts: law and gospel As a lutheran, it's a big yes from me Also, the canon protestants use today, the "Masoretic text" was used by the Pharisees and Jesus when clashing againts them, however Matthew and Luke clearly used the Septuagint And in John, Jesus said to the Pharisees that their sceipture (their cannon) And in ‭John 5:39 : " You study the Scriptures (with the Pharisees' cannon) diligently because you think that in them you have eternal life. These are the very Scriptures (with the Pharisees' cannon)that testify about me" Jesus didn't say the Pharisees' cannon was wrong

[@ProbeScout]

What do you mean in particular? I can think of word choices made post reformation to favor a lower ecclesiology, what are you referring to?

[@t_c5266]

@@ProbeScout some things seem too good to be true (for the church). Or interpreted as such by the church to favor the church. Things along the lines of the the church being equal to the Bible is circular reasoning. The church themselves wrote that the church has ultimate authority. The church wrote (or widely interpret) that people need to give money to the church. Or that the church holds ultimate spiritual authority and the holy spirit really only works through them. Things along these lines are too fishy and don't seem to fit with Jesus's narrative at all. In fact he states very plainly that wherever 2 or 3 gather he's there, and to sell all your riches to give to the poor. The exact opposite the church teaches, which monopolize the gathering place and rake in the money

[@ProbeScout]

@@t_c5266 Okay I still don't know what you think you're referring to in particular, are you referring to a particular creed or confession? It seems you imply the Bible is a higher authority than the church, and I don't know where you would get that claim either really. So for example, starting with premise one: Jesus is the Son of God who came to Earth with authority from God. Premise two: Jesus ordained disciples of his who are called Apostles and invests them with authority. Premise three: Said Apostles write of their experiences with Christ, teach others about him, and continue to receive revelation post-mortem Christ. Premise Four: Apostles establish a church(es), ordain others, call new Apostles, and delegate authority to bishops, deacons, and others. Premise five: the church in its officers ordained by Apostles who had authority of Christ, has therefore the authority of Christ. I'm not catholic or orthodox, but I would say what the structure would more or less be. Empirically, the texts of the New Testament flow from this structure, so could those texts have authority greater than their source?

Actually, the reason that the Church Fathers used the Septuagint is because Jesus and the apostles in the NT quoted nearly always from it. Matthew 1:22-23 is the most famous example. Another example is the genealogy of Luke where Cainan appears. I could even quote from Jesus where he clearly quotes from the Greek. Don't get me wrong. They quote from the Hebrew some. But they prefer to the quote from the Greek. St Justin Martyr, St Irenaeus of Lyons, etc, used that, and the legend of the seventy, to prove that the Septuagint was inspired by God, while the Hebrew was somehow changed by scribes.
