Chapter 35 - DO HOMAGE IN PURITY

Continued from Chapter 34 (Psalms 2:12) “Do homage in purity” In Psalms 2:12 it is stated: “Do homage in purity [nash-ku bar], lest He be angry, and you perish in the way.” The Christian rendering of the Hebrew phrase nash-ku bar as “kiss the son” is based on a misinterpretation.

Continued from Part 26 Establishing paternity In Matthew’s version of the alleged conception of Jesus story (Matthew 1:18) it states that Mary “was found to be with child by holy spirit [with no definite article before “holy spirit”].” In Luke’s version of this story it says that the angel “said to her [Mary], ‘Holy spirit [with no definite article] will come upon you,’ and the power of the Most High will overshadow you” (1:35).  If holy spirit and power of the Most High are synonymous terms
