I'm not a young man, my face is pale gray-bearded & my dome is bald. I have 5 children and 9 grandchildren & my oldest grandchild graduated last year so likely a great-granddad before too long. I was a minister for a while in my small rural home county in Arkansas 25 years ago. I owned a Hebrew-to-English linear translation of the Petutach, & Topical Bibles, & still today even have several translations at all times. I am an obsessive information collector, so went into that the same way. I read tons to make sure my brain was loaded before opening my mouth. I have an off-the-charts ability to read/reading comprehension & a rather high IQ, & I truly say that humbly. I don't say things off the cuff much unless in consensual jesting. I don't say things based on a couple of TikTok videos I saw, or Facebook posts I looked at is what I am trying to express. If I say I found something I can prove it.
Believe me, I didn't like having my faith shattered either. Provable truths decimate lies.

So is the Bible really based on astrotheology, like Jordan Maxwell claimed? His belief system got shattered as well.
If the truth shall kill them, let them die. Always learning & growing so never the same. Merely a humble student & no master.
Well...the "Bible" is a modern invention. There was never in ancient times a "book" of anything scribes, scholars, priests, and the like carried about like today. In ancient times you just remembered what you studiously devoted to memory and your statement of facts was supported or denied by "witnesses" (all Bibles teach you this) around you. The term "common law" is derivative. Did you know the word covenant just is another word for a contract? What was Jesus supposed to constantly be arguing with the legal minds of his time in open public areas in front of witnesses? Law! Who has the best lawyers on earth? In Jewish culture, every culture had its niche and they found theirs. Read how the crucifixion is described as taking place in a COURTROOM hearing situation before the local official law enforcement officer having "jurisdiction" over him! (cont in response)
