RE: Did Peter's Vision of the Sheet Mean People & Food?
Quote:Concerning the promises...the major promise of all the Torah and the prophets is the return of a repentant and united people of Israel to the Holy Land, with a Temple. Why are Jews scattered across the nations? Because of our sins? maybe. But the sages say something profound...[a connection of several quotes by the sages] Jews are across the nations, to make gerim/converts. What gerim/converts? the lost tribes, who will return as Gerim/converts. Why will they return as converts? Their present status is like that of non-Israel. the prophet Hoshea talks all about this, along with Jeremiah, Ezekiel some, Isaiah, etc. The Torah prophecies this in the story of Joseph, where his identity is hidden from the other brothers, also in Lev, in Dt 4, 30. Ben the return of the people to the land did occur ,the scattering into the nations also.Maybe we could discuss the Scriptures pertaining to these prophecies and how we both think they were or will be fulfilled. |
