These 7 Phrases Will CHANGE the Way You Read the Bible | Misreading Scripture

[@photina78]

Leviticus 20:11 (KJV) “And the man that lieth with his father's wife hath uncovered his father's nakedness: both of them shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.”

[@richardwooley1711]

One day, I was sitting and the Most High led me to look up the word “name”. This led me to the truth of the Hebrew word shaym. I then realized that when the Messiah says, “if you ask anything in My Name, it will be given to you”, He was actually saying that whatever we ask in His authority, it will be given. This truth changed everything for me. The Most High says that he leads us in the paths of righteousness for His name sake, He’s actually saying, for His authority’s sake. It’s a beautiful thing! We have authority as sons and daughters and ambassadors of the Most High Yah! It’s also a beautiful thing when He leads you to His actual name. God and Lord are titles, they aren’t names, just food for thought.

[@whitestone4805]

Absolutely, so many see it or have assumed it’s some kind of “magic” word or ending to prayer. When actually it’s (as you say) about trusting in the authority the name denotes and more….the character/characteristics behind it.

[@Pnwelkhunter]

@@whitestone4805 Exactly, in His name means according to His character. Who He is. Yet, though His name is great, He esteems His word over His name. Amazing.

[@tychocollapse]

That makes no sense. You just said that x actually means x, the same meaning, slightly rephrased.

[@richardwooley1711]

@@tychocollapse what do you mean? The word was falsely translated to say name, but in Hebrew, it says Shaym, which means authority. They’re not the same.

[@tychocollapse]

@@richardwooley1711 it's the same meaning which is why it's common also in English to associate "in the name of" as "authority of". Either translation means the same concept and Hebrews weren't the 1st to colloquially associate in that manner. Also "name" may have came from Greek nome, a state or law of that state, as in the authority thereof.

I once had a pastor explain “in the name of Jesus” like in ancient times when the king would send an envoy out with his mark and that person was acting in the name of the king. He was on a mission from the king and spoke with his authority but that only applied to the specific tasks the king sent him on

In the Name of Justus [Psalm 110:4 The Lord hath sworn, and will not repent, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek . (Hebrew: ‘melech’ king + ‘tzedek’ righteous/just = the Just King) "For where two or three are gathered in my name, [In the name of Justus], there I am in the midst of them." - When it is said "In Jesus’ name..." the name being specified is Jesus family name which happens to be the name of the Royal line of King David the RIGHTEOUS (Tzadik in Hebrew). The Latin word for righteous is, you understand, 'Justus' [Justice]. Jesus last name or 'surname', same as his father's and father's before that... all the way back to King David, was Justice.

About the rooster: The time given in scripture is about equivalent to 3am which is less than 2 hr before sun rise in Jerusalem for that time of year. This is a time that a rooster crow is not at all unusual. Also, roosters crow anytime they feel like it, even in the middle of the night. It's just less usual at, say midnight for example, but it does happen. So while you may have a point with this, it is by no means proven or certain either way. The point is that whatever he heard, Peter immediately recognised it as the fulfilment of Jesus prophetic words.

[@idnb70]

I believe the host said a rooster didn't "necessarily" crow. I appreciate his teaching on Hebrew idioms - pointing the reader to study and evaluate the text through the context of the original audience/language - and I believe his point is to bring attention to a dept of the text that goes beyond a mere reading of the words and, hence, a shallow filtering of the text through a 21st century lens. I didn't understand him to teach a conclusion that was different from the intent of the text, or, your statement that "Peter immediately recognized it as the fulfillment of Jesus prophetic words." Unfortunately, a lot of Christians haven't learned to study the Bible in ways that lead them to first understand and evaluate the text from the perspective of the original author/audience, before they apply it to themselves and their personal experiences. I think this video (and others like it) will show readers that the Bible is a fountain of living water that will not run dry and it is very much worth learning how to drink deeply from that fountain.

[@kenwebster5053]

@@idnb70 I watched the video & understood the argument. I don't need you to repeat it's points. It's fine to offer a culturally relevant view. It's not fine to support that with untrue statements. In this case about the habits of roosters. I grew up a few houses away from a guy who kept chickens & provided us with eggs. Roosters do sometimes crow in the middle of the night, I have heard them & and internet search will confirm the fact that it's not all that unusual. So I'm simply calling the author out on providing incorrect information in an attempt to invalidate the usual view of this passage. Not that it matters either way to the passage, but because it's simply not true.

@@kenwebster5053 My neighbor keeps chickens and peacocks. The rooster, when he has one, crows at all times of the night. His house is close to a busy state highway with traffic and street lights. Mr Rooster gave the wake up call frequently at night so that I decided to keep the windows at night because I didn't like to be awakened multiple times a night before it was actually time wake up.😴 The peacocks make an even louder call whenever they are startled.

I attended a Christian school as a child and we had to routinely read scripture, what I find interesting is that scripture works on both levels. Take the example of the eyes letting light in the body, what we see does affects us and we do need to watch what see, maybe more so in the world today, the lighter surface level is easier for a child to understand and be guided by while deeper meaner is there for adults to study and discover providing a lifetime of interest, discovery and enjoyment.

Wow that’s true. Yet another fact that makes the Bible the greatest book ever written

[@wendellhoward884]

I grew up in a religious tradition that we believed every word in our KJV (only acceptable Bible version to God) was directly from God’s mouth. And we would divide from other believers who didn’t agree with our “accurate “ interpretation. Sometimes fellowship hanging on a verb tense. My first awakening is how did the first century church worship correctly without a New Testament Bible. Acts 8, Phillip and the eunuch. If they were lucky they may have an apostle’s letter. And then when the Bible was collected (300 AD) and eventually mass produced over a thousand years later. Not to mention the idioms and reading the New Testament not within the context of the Old Testament. And more recent discovery of older manuscripts reveal translation errors. With the help of you and others, I now realize God’s message is about Jesus and love. Not striving for doctrinal purity and perfect worship service as we interpreted Paul. Thank you Brandon.

[@samueldanner1787]

[@diosdadoapias]

"to abolish the law" is to make the law ineffective or to abandon it as it is not anymore useful for its purpose. To fulfill the law is to implement the law to make it accomplish its purpose.

[@BibleBreakout]

Actually those phrases are related to the idea of yokes aka the “practical application of the law” in day to day life based on interpreted biblical principles. For instance, to take the phrase “avoid the appearance of evil” as the basis for an interpretive lens for all practical applications of scripture leads to a system that falls apart in practice - because the “appearance of evil” is too flippant and creates a yoke too heavy thereby abolishing the law. Think about it, any piece of clothing you wear is tied to someone who sinned so that could be interpreted as the “appearance of evil”. That legalism obviously isn’t the intent of that passage - leading to a heavy yoke. Jesus addresses this idea saying “his yoke is light” meaning his practical application starts and ends with love for God and man.

[@danieljones8575]

Another one that wasn't mentioned here is Daniel 11:37 "Neither shall he regard the God of his fathers, nor the desire of women, nor regard any god: for he shall magnify himself above all." For years I've heard people say that this verse means that the antichrist would not be married, or perhaps be homosexual, or something of that nature, but then I discovered that "the desire of women," was a Hebrew idiom for the messiah, due to the idea that the women at the time all wanted their child to be the promised seed. So this verse is saying that he will have no regard for the God of his fathers, nor for the messiah... I found this to be very interesting. Excellent video. I really enjoy your work!

There’s always great understand that comes when we go back to the ancient understanding off scripture, “Get the ancient Israelite in your head” as Mike Heiser always says, i’ve been studying the context and culture in its ancient format for years now and it has clarified so much.

[@emilyjoyce8082]

Do you have any resources that you use to study ancient Israelites? I have felt the same way about it. I believe studying that subject helps to understand the Bible.

[@jimmybones8452]

I would read the book of 1 Enoch, testament of the 12 patriarchs, Book of Jubilees, Sibylline Oracles,the book of Jasher etc.If you haven’t studied the Tanakh (Hebrew Bible often referred to as the Old Testament) then a good study to start is Tom Bradford’s Torah (God’s instruction) class, this is in no way pointing to works over grace or anything like that, I say this because some people think that way as soon as they here that, but Satan has divided the body of Christ (Messiah) ,not only in separate denominations, but disconnecting us from the root, which is Messianic (Christ) Judaism, the ideals of the Christ/Messiah and the expectations of him were high at that time and many traditions were taught from ancient times, this is seen in the ancient Hebrew manuscripts, Dead Sea manuscripts , Greek manuscripts and later Aramac translations called Targums, they all show different traditions through there translations and usage, some of those traditions are preserved in the Talmud, Mishnah, though the Talmud and Mishnah were a response of the Pharisees to the New Testament,the pharisees being the group that survived the destruction of the second temple etc. I don’t want to confuse you, just remember the scripture we have is solid, always remember the Bible is the foundation, the unwavering foundation stone (well Jesus is the foundation stone, but you get the point). There’s very good scholar by the name of David C Mitchell and I absolutely love his books and he bring a lot of these Messiah traditions and ancient interpretations together, The Message of the Psalter, Messiah Ben Joseph, Incarnation of the Word. As a matter of fact these books I mentioned might help before venturing into the Inter-testament literature. Hope this helps, I pray the LORD Jesus guide you as you grow in the grace and knowledge of HIM. 2 Peter 3:18

[@jimmybones8452]

I believe you will be blessed by these resources, I would suggest learning the ancient interpretations of the scripture, especially as concerns the Messianic interpretations,this will actually help you to prove Jesus is the Messiah (though Jesus Himself did that obviously)apart from the New Testament like The early disciples who had no New Testament, remember the reliability of the New Testament claims rest in the Old Testament, many Bible scholars say the Old Testament is the New Testament concealed and the New Testament is the Old Testament revealed, plus the LORD Himself says “He declares the end from the beginning”. Then the New Testament will be icing on the cake.

Thank you, Brandon, for continuing to give such great insights. I was also concerned about the severity of God's response to Ham in Genesis 9.

John was going to return to Jerusalem to call out Herod for marrying his niece. He said Herod had uncovered his brother's nakedness.

Good video. As for the curse of Canaan, it implies Ham committed maternal incest and Canaan (and his descendants) was the product of such unholy union. This was the reason Canaan was the cursed one.

I was directed to this address by a friend, this weekend we looked at the 3 examples in the introduction. It was easily shown from the context of each and word searches that the speaker was in error.

I'll not give a full study here , simply noting that our whole group clearly saw the error in his presentation. Friends, you can trust a genuine bible translation more than this guy.

To further elaborate on Ham seeing his father's nakedness, we find more information about what this means in Leviticus 18:8 and Leviticus 20:11. 20:11 points to a deeper meaning of why Canaan was cursed. This sheds light on why in Genesis 9:18 Noah's three sons are named but the text points out that Canaan is Ham's son. Canaan was the son of Ham and Noah's wife. This also brings a correct understanding of Genesis 9:18-26, which is summation of events that occurred over a longer period of time.

So Peter was given the Authority by Jesus to declare what is sinful and what isn’t.

That is where one would make promises or blessing with the authority of God. When you pray "in Jesus name" then you are appealing to God and claiming Jesus Christ as your mediator and intercessor with God. It is an acknowledgement that you NEED a Savior who is clean and pure, therefore NOT estranged from God, to stand between you. Because as a Human being with a fallen nature, who is subject to sin, you are technically, and legally not worthy to interact with God. "No unclean thing can enter into the Kingdom of God" Jesus is Clean so he can be with God. and he Took upon him Your sins and My sin so that he can lift us up.

Interesting perspectives. Thank you for your replies.

[@yeshuaislord6880]

@@Paul-hl8yg But not Christianity. Hence why many Christians are not religious but followers of Christ. Living in fear is as God said in Psalms the beginning of Wisdom. But to become wise one must understand God's will. One cannot understand God's will if they are in fear. One can only be wise once he loves God. It's through love that Wisdom is made complete. Continuous fear simply becomes foolishness according to God. It means not growing up as a baby Christian. Just as you fear punishment from your parent initially but you can only understand your parent once you love them by growing up. God doesn't punish people on Earth but He disciplines us.

This is why I like original intent. In newish translations, you have, faith is the assurance of things hoped for. Sorry, but faith isn't a feeling. It is, as the original intent tells us, faith is the SUBSTANCE of things hoped for. Are there good emotions that come from knowing? Yeah. But faith is substance and not a feeling. This is why I stay rooted in the authorized version and I occasionally read other translations. In the book of James we are given command that we are to ask of God and we don't have to wonder if God will say yes. Those who know that yeah is always God's answer to asking in faith from Him, are praying in Jesus Name. But people who don't know if God will say yes, are not praying in Jesus Name.

Thanks, Brandon. I had always understood the sin of Ham to be severe disrespect of his father. I had pictured him with a mocking attitude saying to his brothers, "Hey guys, check it out! The old man is drunk as a skunk and naked as a jaybird!" But the brothers did the opposite by discretely covering their father. The ten commandments had not been given yet, but Ham was obviously not honoring his father and was violating the heart of God's character. This has been enough for me to understand the curse of Canaan, but if what you say is true, that paints even a more horrifying picture.

[@trevorjameson3213]

Considering the severity of the curse on Canaan, I had always thought that since Noah was lying there drunk, possibly passed out, and naked, that Ham had homosexual lust after his father, and maybe even attempted sex with him while he was passed out drunk. After hearing the explanation of the idiom, that seems about right to me. But then Canaan went and told his brothers, that's interesting. Maybe he thought they might be interested in taking advantage of their father also? I don't know, but it's interesting.

[@stevebates9460]

So for Gen 9 21-23 the word translated uncovered, the description of Noah in his tent, means “to be disgracefully exposed.” Ham gloats over his fathers shame and does nothing to preserve his fathers dignity. In contrast to Ham, Shem and Japheth walk in backward and cover Noah. They honor their father and win the approval and blessing of God. So no assault was done 😂 but rather using context (9:26-27) They received blessing for honoring their father.👍👍

You are right that the proper vision is how we are to live. The world we see holds no truth. "Judge not by the flesh or appearance but judge by righteous judgment."

[@JennyG.COW5]

Like the account of Peter denying Jesus Christ, I too thought an animal rooster had crowed. It could be possible that a bird would make a sound, especially when a horn blasted, but then the animal could crow Before Peter denied Christ 3 times. However, having a specific time when the changing of the guards took place, this would be a more reliable source and would be when the trial is taking place. The Law of Moses was written in such a way as to make it illegal for overnight trials so they could avoid this situation in the first place! But no matter what mankind tries to do to thwart God's Plans, it happens as God has already forth told. As for Ham, this makes so much more sense and it shows that God is merciful for our mistakes, yet actions that seem to lead people astray and tries to undo what the Lord has worked so hard to accomplish is what the Lord condemns. It reminds me of the Books of Kings when the wicked kings turned back to idolatry and pagen practices. That's why righteous kings, especially Jehoash (Joash), who stands out from most of the Kings in Israel. Jehoash (Joash) not only saw his people's sin and the sins of his fathers, but sought to get rid of the evil influence and repair the Temple to the way God desired.

The Aramaic word 'gaver' means rooster, but it also means the 'temple crier' who alerted the early risers to come into the temple for the morning devotionals, and this was the 4th watch (3a.m. - 6a.m.). Canaan was Noah's grandson by his wife. So, since he was a child of incest, he and all of his descendants were cursed. Another idiom of note is the "hearing in the ear" one. It's always translated as just "hearing," such as, "Faith comes by hearing, and hearing by The Word of ELohim." But translators left off "...in the ear" because they figured, 'well, how else do you hear?' But it's an idiom that means "to obey what you hear." This is also the definition of 'faith' because it's a verb: a state of being (belief), and an action (adherence to your belief); and faith without works is dead.

[@AuthorJaymiMozeak]

So maybe you know. With the Noah and Ham incident, if Ham uncovering his father's nakedness was sleeping with Noah's wife then what were Shem and Japheth really doing when it says, "But Shem and Japheth took a garment and laid it across their shoulders; then they walked in backward and covered their father’s nakedness. Their faces were turned the other way so that they would not see their father’s nakedness."?

[@auh2o148]

@AuthorJaymiMozeak good question, but although the 'uncovering his father's nakedness' phrase is an idiom, the 'covering their father's nakedness' phrase is more literal. The point was Shem and Japheth not seeing Noah's wife naked and humbled - because only a husband is allowed to see a wife naked. Ham dishonored his father. This is how Reuben lost his firstborn birthright, by sleeping with Bilhah, whom Jacob didn't sleep with after that. I *think* David's son Absalom slept with one of his wives also.

This is so helpful! I think when we finish our prayer with, "In Jesus' name," we're acknowledging that authority that he has. It's like saying, "In the name of the law," as you said. They're going to get arrested no matter what; you don't _need_ to say it for them to go to jail. But it acknowledges the law as the reason you're arresting them. I think it's exactly the same with Jesus' name. It acknowledges Jesus Christ and the power of God the Father to answer that prayer. Sure, you don't _need_ to, but it's kind of like calling someone as "sir" or "ma'am." You respect them, and that's how you show it. Shouldn't it be the same for our perfect, worthy, feared God?

The explanation of Ham's actions needs to take into account the whole of the story. Here it is: "Ham, the father of Canaan, saw his father’s nakedness and told his two brothers outside. But Shem and Japheth took a garment and laid it across their shoulders; then they walked in backward and covered their father’s nakedness. Their faces were turned the other way so that they would not see their father’s nakedness". If Ham sexually abused HIS MOTHER, what is this pantomime with Shem and Japheth walking backwards with a garment and covering Noah all about? If Ham sexually abused Noah himself, were Ham's brothers' actions done so that THEY would not do the same - that "they would not see their father’s nakedness"? When sexual activity is involved, the Hebrew is translated "uncover (גֶּלֶה‎) the nakedness", not "see (רָאָה‎) the nakedness".

[@AuthorJaymiMozeak]

I was wondering that too. If Ham actually had sex with Noah or Noah's wife what were Shem and Japheth actually doing? Although I think I spelled Japheth wrong in my comment.

Fascinating! Although I had heard that interpretation of Noah's nakedness before. It also occurs in Leviticus 20:17. But that interpretation sits oddly with the next passage *Then Shem and Japheth took a garment, laid it on both their shoulders, and walked backward and covered the nakedness of their father. Their faces were turned backward, and they did not see their father’s nakedness.* How do you explain that passage? One explanation is that it was a later addition by someone who didn't know the idiom, but I wondered if there are other explanations?
