biblical dating guidelines

What are biblical guidelines for dating, courting, adultry and love children?

Ezekiel 23
1 The word of the LORD came again unto me, saying,
2 Son of man, there were two women, the daughters of one mother:
3 and they committed whoredoms in Egypt; they committed whoredoms in their youth: there were their breasts pressed, and there they bruised the teats of their virginity.
4 And the names of them were Aho’lah the elder, and Ahol’ibah her sister: and they were mine, and they bare sons and daughters. Thus were their names; Samaria is Aho’lah, and Jerusalem Ahol’ibah.
5 And Aho’lah played the harlot when she was mine; and she doted on her lovers, on the Assyrians her neighbors,
6 which were clothed with blue, captains and rulers, all of them desirable young men, horsemen riding upon horses.
7 Thus she committed her whoredoms with them, with all them that were the chosen men of Assyria, and with all on whom she doted: with all their idols she defiled herself.
8 Neither left she her whoredoms brought from Egypt: for in her youth they lay with her, and

I don’t think there are really many guidelines .

Women are to stay a virgin till marriage & men can sleep with whom ever they wish, so long as it’s not another mans property (including the father of the woman/girl, which in some cases he can just pay him off).

dating the exodus

What exactly are the dates of Christmas Exodus in the Army?

What day does it start (you can leave for home) and what day does it end (need to report back on)?
It will be during basic training.

While in BCT or AIT there is no certain date, it differs. I know someone who has it from the 1st - 17th of Dec. and someone else has it 19th - 2nd of Jan. So it will be whenever they tell you.

Early & Late Dating of Exodus

radiometric dating examples

what is an example of when a geologist would use radiometric dating?

Radiometric dating (often called radioactive dating) is a technique used to date materials, based on a comparison between the observed abundance of particular naturally occurring radioactive isotopes and their known decay rates.[1] It is the principal source of information about the absolute age of rocks and other geological features, including the age of the Earth itself. Among the best-known techniques are potassium-argon dating and uranium-lead dating. By allowing the establishment of geological timescales, it provides a significant source of information about the dates of fossils and the deduced rates of evolutionary change. Radiometric dating is also used to date archaeological remains and ancient artifacts, the best known technique in this field being radiocarbon dating.

dating the gospels

How do we know that the gospels weren’t corrupted by paul since he pre-dated the gospels?

Since the gospels were after paul, couldn’t they easily have borrowed from his writings?

Wow. Not up on the Book of Acts? Not good with geography, maybe?

Paul was only in Jerusalem twice after his conversion to Christianity, both times for just days. The rest of his life he was preaching on the road far from Jerusalem up until the point of his arrest.

Matthew (aka Levi) was in Jerusalem, presumably his Gospel was written there.

Mark (aka John Mark, so it is believed) was with Barnabas traveling far in the opposite direction from Paul. Now, given the primitive nature of his Gospel, it may have been written while on the road, but, he was on the road with Barnabas because Paul wouldn’t have him, not trusting that Mark was steady enough to do the work, but with his uncle Barnabas, John Mark seems to have done just fine. Maybe he found Paul a bit intense, and intimidating– but we don’t know for sure, except that Paul was antagonistic towards John Mark.
Doubtful that Paul would have been much impressed with Mark’s simple Gospel, with his education and in depth writing style. Doubt he could have left it in that “sad” condition, if he had the opportunity to change it. It seems likely that Paul never had the opportunity.

The Apostle John (the Beloved), writer of the fourth of the New Testament Gospels , was in Jerusalem as well, and his interaction with Paul was as limited as the first two Gospel writers, since as mentioned, Paul only had the 2 brief visits to Jerusalem, and was promptly spirited out of it after his arrest within just days to Caesarea, where he was kept prisoner for more than 2 years, and was transported from there to Rome, and held in custody 2 more years in Rome until he was executed there.

John the Beloved outlived just about everybody else, so it appears; was arrested at some point most when he was likely already aged, probably after the destruction of Jerusalem in 70 A.D., and died while in exile on the Isle of Patmos— where he did write the Revelation, but was his Gospel also written there? We don’t know. If it was, though, Paul was long dead by that time.

That just leaves Luke, author of the third of the New Testament Gospels. Now, we know Luke traveled with Paul, that’s for certain, and scribed for Paul, very likely, especially in Paul’s later years. It is clear from the book of Acts and from Paul’s epistles, that Paul’s eyesight was going dim pretty steadily.

Luke was an adept writer, and while it’s possible Luke MAY have written his own gospel at some point while he was traveling with Paul, it’s much more likely, at least IMHO, that he wrote it even BEFORE Paul’s first visit to Jerusalem.

The reason I believe this is so, is that Luke obviously had significant access to the 12 Apostles in Jerusalem, and many of the other disciples, including Mary, Jesus’ mother and James, the Lord’s brother, and many other of the eyewitnesses to Christ’s life and deeds, while they were still living. He gives far more detail than the other Gospels of Christ’s ENTIRE life.

Luke took up with Paul and Silas on their journeys, and it seems he may also have been transported to Rome with Paul (possibly even voluntarily accompanied him to Rome), and more than likely he even died with Paul in Rome as well.

What all this means is that of the Gospel writers, Matthew and John the Beloved probably only met Paul twice, and very briefly, after his conversion— IF they met him then.

Before his conversion, I’m sure they all stayed as far out of rampaging “Saul’s” way— as was far as possible, anyway, and “Saul” certainly wasn’t interested in “playing editor” for the apostle’s stories of Christ during that time prior to his own conversion, just eliminating them—-and it doesn’t appear that he had much opporturnity to edit them later either.

You need another scapegoat.

dating and the bible

Is interracial dating really against the bible?

I have been dating a black guy for a few months. He’s one of the nicest and polite men I have ever dated. I recently told my mom about him. She flipped out and told me its against the bible to date other races. She said its frowned upon by the world and she wont talk to me until i date someone of my color. Is it really against the bible?? And what is your opinion of interracial dating?

I doubt it, but then I haven’t been looking for any verses either.

The only thing the Bible says is to marry someone of your own faith (and I could quote the verse to you, but I’m too lazy to find it)

Ask your mom to show you specifically in the Bible where it either implies or specifically says interracial marriage (since that’s what dating is supposed to lead to) is forbiidden.

dating of the gospels

Question about dating the gospels? (repost)?

This question is for christians who claim the gospels were all written before the destruction of the temple.

I am not wanting to debate when they were written as I have done a substantial amount of reading on the subject and have formed my own opinions.

I have seen many chrstian sites that give arguments for a later dating but have never seen a secular site which claims an early dating. If they were written early should I not be able to find at least one secular site?

My question is can anyone provide me with a secular web site or article that claims an early writing?

Cheers
JMS
Cricket -there are many many secular bible scholars, most are christian but there are lots who are not.

This is a very interesting question. I can assure you, I AM searching for one.

The problem is that the majority of biblical scholars are religious, so one generally won’t find too many secular biblical scholars to begin with.

But I’ll look anyway. This might take awhile.

The fact is though, that most scholars do give an earlier date for the composition of the books of the New Testament, whether they’re secular or not. I’ll see if I can’t find some articles. I’ll be back.

Edit: I just finished reading this article (it’s a PDF file, just to warn you) (yes, I know it says it’s a PDF file in the link, but I still miss those sometimes); it cites several different books on the subject (which is the only reason I’m referring it to you):

Another interesting article on how the New Testament was dated:
http://www.british-israel.ca/Newtes2.htm

Here’s another:
http://www.anointed.net/Libraryroom/Revival/RichardRiss/evidences/part1/12date.htm

For the record, I realize these probably aren’t what you’re looking for. The problem is, there’s no such thing as a nonbiased source. Take each of the ones I posted with a grain of salt, and research them. Test them. See if they’re true. Whether they’re “biased” or not doesn’t matter. What matters is whether or not they’re the truth.

Whatever you find with the sites I posted, feel free to email me with what you think, either through here or at farkas419@yahoo.com. I’d love to discuss this further, and I promise I won’t try to convert you. I already got my free toaster for converting fifty people. Still waiting on my new car…

I can find more sites if you’d like.
