language - agglutinative or synthetic :
"The meaning is understood only partially by word order and much more by word-endings or case-endings. . . Greek is a strong synthetic language."
Ref-0015, pp. 136-137
language - analytic :
"The very order in which the words occur is the way in which we grammatically grasp the meaning of the sentence. English is very much a word order language. . .Hebrew is an analytic language."
Ref-0015, p. 136.

"Jennings has said, 'The discord of ZBabel shall, as it were, give place to the unity of language.' This meaning is disputed by Keil who argues that the Hebrew word rendered 'pure' means purity from sin rather than linguistic clarity, and also that the Hebrew noun means lip and 'does not stand for language.' But Keil seems to ignore the fact that in Gen. [[11:1-9|bible.1.11.1]] this noun is so used no less than four times in connection with the confusion of tongues at Babel. As for the idea of moral purity, it is admitted that this is the correct meaning. But this only adds to the force of the idea of linguistic unity, for the curse of language multiplicity came because of the sinful speech of man upon that occasion."

"In the Greek text of John [[21:1-25|bible.64.21.1]] Jesus uses two different Greek words for love and for taking care of the flock, and Peter uses two different words for know. None of these pairs, however, can be reproduced in Hebrew or Aramaic; this was apparently a conversation originally carried on in Greek. Also, the play on the Greek words petra and petros in Mtt. [[16:18|bible.61.16.18]] cannot be reproduced in Hebrew or Aramaic and is best explained as occurring in a discussion originally carried on in Greek. In all likelihood, Jesus' conversations with the Syrophoenician woman, the Roman centurion, and Pilate were in Greek. Stephen (Acts [[7:1-60|bible.65.7.1]]) and James (Acts [[15:1-41|bible.65.15.1]]) quote from the Septuagint, thus giving evidence of their facility in the Greek language. . . .Apparently, then, Greek, Hebrew, and Aramaic were all commonly spoken and understdood among the Palestinian Jews of Jesus' day."

Since the 'law' is based upon the Mosaic Covenant, it is important to understand the relationship between the different covenants of the Old Testament and their application to Israel and to believers who are 'sons of Abraham' by faith (Gal. [[3:7|bible.69.3.7]]). (1) The Old (Mosaic) covenant was conditional and was broken by Israel. (Jer. [[31:32|bible.24.31.32]]). (2) The New Covenant was made with the same people (Israel) as the Mosaic Covenant (Jer. [[31:32-33|bible.24.31.32]]). (3) The Old Covenant is obsolete and vanishing (Heb. [[8:13|bible.79.8.13]]). People of faith are no longer under it (Gal. [[3:25|bible.69.3.25]]; Gal. [[5:18|bible.69.5.18]]). (4) Salvation is by faith based on participation in the Abrahamic Covenant--which preceded the Mosaic Covenant and was not annulled by it (Gal. [[3:7-18|bible.69.3.7]]). Gentiles participate in the blessing of Abraham (Gen. [[12:3|bible.1.12.3]]) via faith in Christ (Gal. [[3:8|bible.69.3.8]],Gal. [[3:14|bible.69.3.14]]) who fulfilled the law (Mtt. [[5:17|bible.61.5.17]]). The Abrahamic Covenant is not abolished by the passing away of the Mosaic Covenant (Gal. [[3:17|bible.69.3.17]]). (5) Gentiles were strangers from the covenants (plural), having no hope and without God. Christ abolished in His flesh the law of commandments (the Mosaic Covenant, which separated Jews from Gentiles) creating one new man--the church (Eph. [[2:12-15|bible.70.2.12]]). (6) The covenants given to Israel which remain in effect include the Abrahamic Covenant (Gen. [[12:1-3|bible.1.12.1]]; Gen. [[15:1-21|bible.1.15.1]]) and the three covenants which spring forth from it: the Land Covenant (Ex. [[6:4|bible.2.6.4]]; Deu. [[29:1-12|bible.5.29.1]]), the Davidic Covenant (2S. [[7:8-17|bible.10.7.8]]; 1Chr. [[17:9-16|bible.13.17.9]]; Ps. [[89:19-51|bible.19.89.19]]; Ps. [[132:10|bible.19.132.10]]; Luke [[1:32-33|bible.63.1.32]]), and the New Covenant (Jer. [[31:31-40|bible.24.31.31]]; Mtt. [[26:28|bible.61.26.28]]; Mark [[14:24|bible.62.14.24]]; Luke [[22:14-20|bible.63.22.14]]; Rom. [[11:26-27|bible.66.11.26]]). (7) The law was meant to expose our sin (Rom. [[3:19|bible.66.3.19]]; Rom. [[5:20|bible.66.5.20]]; Rom. [[7:7|bible.66.7.7]]), guide us, and point us to Christ (Gal. [[3:19-25|bible.69.3.19]]). (8) The law is an all-or-nothing proposition. Those who would seek to be justified by the law have become estranged from Christ (Gal. [[3:10|bible.69.3.10]]; Gal. [[5:3-4|bible.69.5.3]]; Jas. [[2:10|bible.80.2.10]]). (9) No one is justified (declared righteous) by the law (Gal. [[3:11|bible.69.3.11]]). Justification has always been by faith in God based on the work of Christ (Gen. [[15:6|bible.1.15.6]]; Gal. [[3:6|bible.69.3.6]]). (10) Believers are now subject to the law of Christ, the law of the Spirit (Rom. [[8:2|bible.66.8.2]]; 1Cor. [[9:21|bible.67.9.21]]; Gal. [[6:2|bible.69.6.2]]; Jas. [[1:25|bible.80.1.25]]; Jas. [[2:12|bible.80.2.12]]).

"Sometimes the whole Hebrew Bible, or any part of it, is referred to as 'the law': in John [[10:34|bible.64.10.34]] Jewish disputants are told that part of Psalm 82 is 'written in your law'; in 1Cor. [[14:21|bible.67.14.21]] a quotation from Isa. [[28:11|bible.23.28.11]] f. is similarly said to be written 'in the law', while in Rom. [[3:10-19|bible.66.3.10]] a chain of quotations from the Psalms and Isaiah is included in 'whatever the law says'."

"Is not, then [after Abraham], a period of law covering fifteen centuries superfluous, a needless delay, indeed a retrogression? There [in Abraham] a direct inward life of faith--here [under the Law] outward mediating forms; there, restful sublime simplicity--here, complexity, scarcely to be comprehended: there the word and the promise prevailing--here, demand and symbol dominating. But the simpler is nobler than the complicated, and the word is more direct than the symbol; the promise is more creative than the command, and the inward higher than the form."

[[@Topic:law and prophets]]
law and prophets :
law and prophets - not writings 
law and prophets - not writings : Acts [[28:23|bible.65.28.23]]
The third division of Jewish scriptures--the writings--are not mentioned. This is probably due to the Jewish view of inspiration. The law (
Torah) is said to be of greatest authority, as it is the very words of God dictated directly to a human scribe. The Prophets (Nevi'im) are of lesser authority, being God's messages spoken through the mouths of men. The Writings (
Ketubim) are considered to be of least authority, as they are reckoned to be the words of men whose thinking was guided by God. Jesus used all three sections of the Old Testament (Luke [[24:44|bible.63.24.44]]) because, as far as he and the apostles were concerned, all of the Hebrew Scriptures were of equal validity.

Mary of Bethany - sister of Lazarus
Lazarus - dead four days : John [[11:39|bible.64.11.39]]
Lazarus was dead 4 days because Judaism thinks the spirit hovers over a dead body 3 days and so can still be resuscitated. On 4th day on, only resurrection could bring someone back from the dead. . .that's why Jesus waited. Arnold Fruchtenbaum, Prophecy and the Nation of Israel, Tyndale Theological Seminary. [http://www.tyndale.edu]
Lazarus - meaning :
abbreviation of Eliezer?
Lazarus - plot to kill : John [[12:10|bible.64.12.10]]
Lazarus - raised from dead : John [[11:43|bible.64.11.43]]; John [[12:1|bible.64.12.1]]; John [[12:9-10|bible.64.12.9]]; John [[12:17|bible.64.12.17]]
Lazarus - three stages of : John [[11:43|bible.64.11.43]]; John [[12:10|bible.64.12.10]]
Stage 1: Lazarus was dead and could not respond. Stage 2: Lazarus was defeated (alive, but bound in grave clothes). Stage 3: Lazarus was dangerous--leading to the plot to kill him. These are analagous to the stages believers go through (prior to their calling until fully equipped for ministry).
