Let us look at the following Verses in the Bible: "If a man takes a wife and, after laying with her, dislikes her and slanders her and gives her a bad name, saying, 'I married this woman but when I approached her, I did not find proof of her virginity,' then the girl's father and mother shall bring proof [how do you think they would do that?] that she was a virgin to the town elders at the gate. The girl's father will say to the elders, 'I gave my daughter in marriage to this man, but he dislikes her. Now he has slandered her and said, 'I did not find your daughter to be a virgin.' But here is the proof of my daughter's virginity.' Then her parents shall display the cloth [the father would literally stick his two fingers covered with a piece of cloth into his daughter's vagina before she gets married and keep that bloody cloth for as long as his daughter is married] with before the elders of the town, and the elders shall take the man and punish him. (From the NIV Bible, Deuteronomy 22:13-18)"

Here is a more clear translation from Hebrew Resources: "The girl's father and mother shall produce the evidence of the girl's virginity before the elders of the town at the gate. And the girl's father shall say to the elders, "I gave this man my daughter to wife, but he had taken an aversion to her; so he has made up charges, saying, 'I did not find your daughter a virgin.' But here is the evidence of my daughter's virginity!" And they shall spread out the cloth before the elders of the town. (From the New JPS translation, Deuteronomy 22:15-17)"

The New JPS translation of Deuteronomy 22:15-17 makes it even more clear about having the parents of the girl displaying the bloody piece of cloth before the elders of the town.

According to the Talmud, the cloth should be "A cloth of less than 3 square finger-breadths. (From the Talmud, Eruvin 29b-30a and Succah 16a)", and before it is being used, it should be "soft, woolen and clean. (From the Talmud, Niddah 17a)"

Do you believe in life after death. If so why? Is there a God / devil, Why do we believe, or want to belive there is something when science says dying is the end of life.

I mean the Jewish canon of the Old testament rather than the one in Septuginta.
Jesus wasn't bound by Jewish councils. Jamnia in the first century.

I have been reading commentaries this week. And realized that what others viewed of the bible and their opinions on the verses are different from some commentaries and some commentaries are different from interpretations. So which is the truth. There must be a general truth on the bible.

Why is it christian reject the notion of prophets to come?


Beware of the false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly are ravenous wolves. You will know them by their fruits. Grapes are not gathered from thorn bushes, nor figs from thistles, are they? Even so, every good tree bears good fruit; but the bad tree bears bad fruit. A good tree cannot produce bad fruit, nor can a bad tree produce good fruit. Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. So then, you will know them by their fruits. -(Matthew 7:15-20)


Emphasis on "You will know THEM by their fruits".

So do you reject the notion of a prophet following Jesus?

Is this true about confidence? That when you are very confident you dont give a confidence a second though, you hardly think about your self at all,because your attention becomes absorved
in situation or experience at a time. And when you are very confident you can tolerate uncertainty very easily,what ever happens I will be able to handle it. Confidence is spontenous. Do you agree with this?

I am and i was wondering how you cope and does your shyness stop you from doing what you want to do in life. Im ashamed to say i used my children alot when they were growing up to talk to people ie stewardess on a plane or a shopkeeper to ask for something i wanted. Is shyness something that we are taught to be as children or are we predisposed to be shy by our personalities.?

I just looked it up, out of curiosity..it's pretty scary. The end really creeps me out!

My country , my country
My country , the land of my grand fathers
My country , my country
My country , my nation , the nation of eternity
With my determine , my fire and the volcano of my revenge
The longing of my blood to my land and home
I have climbed the mountains and fought the wars
I have conquered the impossible , and crossed the boarders
My country , my country , the nation of eternity
With the resolve of the winds and the fire of the guns
And the determination of my nation in the land of struggle
Palestine is my home , Palestine is my fire ,
Palestine is my revenge and the land of eternal
My country , my country , the nation of eternity
I swear under the shade of the flag
To my land and nation , and the fire of pain
I will live as a guerrilla , I will go on as guerrilla ,
I will expire as guerrilla until I will be back
My country , my country , the nation of eternity
