CORINTHIANS:

[jeremiah1five]

The Corinthian letters by Saul, a rabbi and Pharisee who after meeting the Lord Jesus Christ on the road to Damascus remained committed to the Law and to his Hebrew heritage wrote (at least) three letters to his Hebrew brethren in this Roman province which was one of the centers of Greek philosophy and culture. Two of his letters were preserved, which we now have as part of the writings of the New Covenant era. Take note of the Hebrew references in bold in the greeting which identifies a Hebrew and mixed Hebrew heritage (Hellenized).

1 PAUL, called to be an apostle of Jesus Christ through the will of God, and Sosthenes our brother,
2 Unto the church of God which is at Corinth, to them that are sanctified in Christ Jesus, called to be saints, with all that in every place call upon the name of Jesus Christ our Lord, both theirs and ours:
3 Grace be unto you, and peace, from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ. 1 Corinthians 1:1–3.

These terms in bold all reference this letter was written to Hebrews at Corinth, Jews, Jewish Christians, and mixed heritage Hebrews who for 15-20 generations grew up in Gentile land heavily influenced by Greek culture (Hellenized Jews.)

The Corinthian epistles were written to a specific church in Corinth, Greece, and were addressed to a diverse group of believers, including both Jews, Jewish Christians, and Jews of mixed heritage heavily influenced by Greek culture. There are several points that point a Hebrew perspective within these letters:

• Author's Jewish Heritage: The traditional author of the Corinthian epistles, Paul the Apostle, was a Pharisee, a sect of Judaism known for its strict adherence to the Law. His deep understanding of Jewish law, tradition, and scripture is evident throughout his writings.
• Frequent References to the Old Testament: Paul often quotes or alludes to the Hebrew Scriptures to support his arguments and teachings. He draws on the stories, prophecies, and laws of the Old Testament to explain the significance of Jesus Christ and the Christian faith.
• Emphasis on Righteousness and Law: While Paul emphasizes salvation by grace through faith in Christ, he also addresses the importance of righteous living and obedience to God's law. This theme is deeply rooted in Jewish thought and practice.
• Use of Rabbinic Disputation: Paul's writing style often employs rabbinic techniques of argumentation, such as citing scripture, using analogies, and engaging in dialectical reasoning. This suggests a familiarity with Jewish methods of debate and persuasion.
• Concern for the Jewish People: Despite the challenges and divisions within the Corinthian church, Paul expresses his love and concern for his fellow Jews. He acknowledges the role of Israel in God's plan of salvation and prays for their ultimate redemption.

While the Corinthian epistles were written to a specific audience in a particular cultural context, their content reveals a strong connection to Hebrew thought and tradition. Paul's Jewish heritage and his deep understanding of the Hebrew Scriptures shape his theological perspectives and his approach to Christian discipleship. The Corinthian letters of Saul make reference to Hebrew history, its prophets, its culture, the Law, and its people in general.

First, three ERRORS. #1. Paul, was Saul. #2. the apostle wrote that the Law was fulfilled in Christ Jesus and a righteous was not made for the Law which bring WRATH from God. #3. are you sure that the apostle Paul wrote Hebrews? if so, book chapter and verse to that effect.

101G.

P.S. as for Hebrews 101G leans toward Perscilla and her Husband Aquilla as the writers of the book of Hebrews.

 

[jeremiah1five]

First, three ERRORS. #1. Paul, was Saul.

Saul is Saul. That is his Hebrew name and the name Jesus, also a Hebrew, addressed him as. Let's not Getilize what is Hebrew. That's called twisting and warping the bible.
Everything about salvation is Hebrew. There is nothing "non-Hebrew" about it.
It begins with Abram the Hebrew and culminates in Jesus another Hebrew. That is why Jesus said, "Salvation is of the Jews."
There is nothing in Scripture that says salvation is of the Gentiles.
And for good reason. Gentiles got nothing coming of the God of Abraham.

#2. the apostle wrote that the Law was fulfilled in Christ Jesus and a righteous was not made for the Law which bring WRATH from God.

Is that why Jesus directed the rich young ruler who asked about inheriting eternal life to the Law? And then Jesus instructs Him to obey the Law.
The Law is not abolished. God commands the Law for instruction in righteousness, so how can it bring wrath? Not to a born-again biblical Christian. When God declares us justified at the moment of a Jews' conversion there is no longer any wrath to speak of.
Your theology is out of whack.

#3. are you sure that the apostle Paul wrote Hebrews? if so, book chapter and verse to that effect.

That's a good question. But like the rest of Scripture it was written to the Hebrews. The Word of God from Genesis to Revelation is written to the Hebrews.

Yeah, I've heard that. But one thing is important to consider and that is gematria. Saul would have had to write Hebrews in order to make a double of sevens equaling fourteen. Seven means spiritual perfection. Doubled, especially where Scripture is concerned means the Word is doubly perfected. Saul wrote fourteen epistles. Including Hebrews.

GINOLJC, to all.
101G do not care what you say, the bible said, he called himself "PAUL".... why..... (smile). but first, he addressed all the churches he wrote to as, "PAUL". Romans 1:1 "Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, separated unto the gospel of God," ect.... and all the Letters he wrote to the other churches, he addressed them as "PAUL". as Saul, he was a sinner, and yes he held dual citizenship, thank God he changed his name.... now to the WHY. 1 Timothy 1:12 "And I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who hath enabled me, for that he counted me faithful, putting me into the ministry;" 1 Timothy 1:13 "Who was before a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and injurious: but I obtained mercy, because I did it ignorantly in unbelief." (JUST AS MANY HEBREWS and JEWS WERE), 1 Timothy 1:14 "And the grace of our Lord was exceeding abundant with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus." 1 Timothy 1:15 "This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief." 1 Timothy 1:16 "Howbeit for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me first Jesus Christ might shew forth all longsuffering, for a pattern to them which should hereafter believe on him to life everlasting."

see you all were IGNORANT, yes both Hebrews, and Jews. swift to kill, slow to hear. this is why the Lord Jesus chose Paul..... LISTEN, Acts 9:20 "And straightway he preached Christ in the synagogues, that he is the Son of God." Acts 9:21 "But all that heard him were amazed, and said; Is not this he that destroyed them which called on this name in Jerusalem, and came hither for that intent, that he might bring them bound unto the chief priests?" as Saul that name associated him with IGNORANCE and disbelief. as was all the HEBREWS and JEWS..... IGNORANT, and in DISBELIF of GOD, the Lord Jesus, and we have still a many of "SAUL(S)" in the world today.

Is that why Jesus directed the rich young ruler who asked about inheriting eternal life to the Law? And then Jesus instructs Him to obey the Law.
The Law is not abolished. God commands the Law for instruction in righteousness, so how can it bring wrath? Not to a born-again biblical Christian. When God declares us justified at the moment of a Jews' conversion there is no longer any wrath to speak of.
Your theology is out of whack.

another ERROR of the day. at the time the Lord Jesus spoke to the young man all were still under the Old Covenant. think, he, the Lord Jesus haven't died yet..... (SEE THIS WHY PAUL CHANGED HIS NAME.... THE IGNORANCE, AND UNBELIEF). the NEW COVENANT had not yet been declared and in force. Listen and Learn, a testament/Covenant is not in force until the testator dies. scriptures, Hebrews 9:16 "For where a testament is, there must also of necessity be the death of the testator." Hebrews 9:17 "For a testament is of force after men are dead: otherwise it is of no strength at all while the testator liveth."

now, had the Lord Jesus died when he was speaking to the young man? Duh...... THINK.... No wonder why the apostle Paul changed his name. 101G would have to. My God what's wrong with people today? where is the thinking process? Unbelievable.

That's a good question. But like the rest of Scripture it was written to the Hebrews. The Word of God from Genesis to Revelation is written to the Hebrews.

another ERROR on your Part. it was only entitled "Hebrews" .... now 101G remind you, if it was entitle "Jews", who is a Jesus? let the bible answer,
Romans 2:28 "For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh:" Romans 2:29 "But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of men, but of God."

now 101G ask you, "Who is a Hebrew?" one OUTWARDLY or one INWARDLEY? just as who is an Israelite, or who is a Judean? see all that nonsense is just that..... nonsense...... this just shows you walk by the flesh and not by the Spirit. meaning you're dead.

Romans 8:1 "There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit." Romans 8:2 "For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death." Romans 8:3 "For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh:" Romans 8:4 "That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit." Romans 8:5 "For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit." Romans 8:6 "For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace." Romans 8:7 "Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be." Romans 8:8 "So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God." Romans 8:9 "But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his."

again, 101G don't blame Paul for changing his name. 101G wouldn't want to be associated with fleshly things in IGNORANCE either.

Yeah, I've heard that. But one thing is important to consider and that is gematria. Saul would have had to write Hebrews in order to make a double of sevens equaling fourteen.

IGNORANT, and in DISBELIF of GOD, the Lord Jesus, and we have still a many of "SAUL(S)" in the world today.

Jesus called him "Saul" in the narrative despite the Gentiles who put the New Testament together with a bias of course, of Gentiles. And you fall for it.

another ERROR of the day. at the time the Lord Jesus spoke to the young man all were still under the Old Covenant. think, he, the Lord Jesus haven't died yet..... (SEE THIS WHY PAUL CHANGED HIS NAME.... THE IGNORANCE, AND UNBELIEF). the NEW COVENANT had not yet been declared and in force.

Hebrews 9:17 "For a testament is of force after men are dead: otherwise it is of no strength at all while the testator liveth."

The New Covenant was in full swing on Pentecost. It wasn't necessary to "declare" a New Covenant. The twelve disciples were made aware of a New Covenant prophesied by Jeremiah at the Last Passover. And the forty days Jesus after resurrection was on the planet was ample time to fill the disciples in on the other points of the New Covenant era they were on the cusp of witnessing with the advent of the Holy Spirit just days later. The New Covenant era began with the advent of the Holy Spirit. Not before, and not 30 years later when Hebrews is believed written. AND it was written to Jewish Christians who thought to defect back into Judaism (chap. 6.)

now, had the Lord Jesus died when he was speaking to the young man? Duh...... THINK.... No wonder why the apostle Paul changed his name. 101G would have to. My God what's wrong with people today? where is the thinking process? Unbelievable.

another ERROR on your Part. it was only entitled "Hebrews" .... now 101G remind you, if it was entitle "Jews", who is a Jesus? let the bible answer,

now 101G ask you, "Who is a Hebrew?" one OUTWARDLY or one INWARDLEY? just as who is an Israelite, or who is a Judean? see all that nonsense is just that..... nonsense...... this just shows you walk by the flesh and not by the Spirit. meaning you're dead.

It reads like that in translation "who is a Jew" but the Greek doesn't ask a question. And a Jew is one both outwardly and inwardly. You can't bifurcate a person like that, and rabbi Saul doesn't do it. And the word "heart" does not refer to the proverbial heart that pumps blood. Its understanding carries over from the Old Testament and it refers to the 'whole being' of a person.

Romans 8:1 "There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit." Romans 8:2 "For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death." Romans 8:3 "For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh:" Romans 8:4 "That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit." Romans 8:5 "For they that are after the flesh do mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit." Romans 8:6 "For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace." Romans 8:7 "Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be." Romans 8:8 "So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God." Romans 8:9 "But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his."

again, 101G don't blame Paul for changing his name. 101G wouldn't want to be associated with fleshly things in IGNORANCE either.

personal Opinion too?

101G.

The disciples were all in the flesh. According to your understanding they didn't please God.
Sad.

 

[101G]

Jesus called him "Saul" in the narrative despite the Gentiles who put the New Testament together with a bias of course, of Gentiles. And you fall for it.

well the Lord Jesus calls us his sons, are we all his sons? ... no. ... (smile)..... lol,

The New Covenant was in full swing on Pentecost. It wasn't necessary to "declare" a New Covenant.

ERROR, it was, hence the outpouring of the Holy Spirit. why "DECLARE?", listen, 2 Corinthians 1:22 "Who hath also sealed us, and given the earnest of the Spirit in our hearts." and the term "earnest" means,
G728 ἀρῥαβών arrhabon (ar-rha-ɓōn') n.
a pledge, i.e. part of the purchase-money or property given in advance as security for the rest.
[of Hebrew origin (H6162)]
KJV: earnest
Root(s): H6162

a "pledge" yes, for another word that is synonyms with pledge is "DECLARE". so you're reproved again. please try to learn the bible... ok. .... READ. it.
