www.sacred-texts.com/jud/loj/index.htmThis is a massive collation of the Haggada--the traditions which have grown up surrounding the Biblical narrative. These stories and bits of layered detail are scattered throughout the Talmud and the Midrash, and other sources, including oral. In the 19th century Ginzberg undertook the task of arranging the Haggada into chronological order, and this series of volumes was the result.

so are these the books that are in the hebrew bible or just stories with bits and pieces taken from the hebrew bible and embellished upon? www.sacred-texts.com/jud/loj/index.htmThis is a massive collation of the Haggada--the traditions which have grown up surrounding the Biblical narrative.

The funny thing Courty Court, is that there are far moor hebraic writings that give the missing pieces than people are aware of. So for people to think they need to graft in stories from egypt and sumer to get the missing pieces is preposterous. They are just uninformed about all the other hebrew texts. Normally when these arguments take place they stay within the confines of the 66 books, if they venture extrabiblically it's usually the book of enoch because thats just a common non bible text. There are a plethora of other hebrew texts. LOL. The genesis account of creation is nothing moor than just a template. There are other hebrew writtings that go into detail about the creation. Heck the creation events are even given moor detail in the bible itself in the Khetubiym section of the writ. I am now in the process of reading the ENTIRE bible, not just the 66 books, but also the apogrypha, pseudiographa, the writings of the Jewish fathers, the Talmud, the Haggada, the Qabalah, the christian fathers, the christian apogrypha, the christian pseudiographa, the coptic texts, the midrash, the gnostic texts, the ethiopian texts, the kebra negast, whewwww!! I'mma be very busy so are these the books that are in the hebrew bible or just stories with bits and pieces taken from the hebrew bible and embellished upon? |

would you think all of the text you mentioned are divinely inspired or are you reading them to find out?

Now I would not say they are all divinely inspired and to me that doesn't matter because when I look at the bible, it defies divine inspiration because I don't consider Constantine divine nor do I consider him under divine influence when he ordered the canonization of the holy writ. I figure like this, if the Songs of Solomon made it in the book, then so should the others. They give us a greater portrayal of those times and culture as well as insites into the interactions of the hebrews. If you read the bible from cover to cover Courtney you will notice that they reference information and books that are not included like the book of Iddo, etc. Those books are available and give greater insight and we should be able to access them. We can learn a lot from those other sources. EVerything hebraic I will consider. I know how to tell the right from the wrong, the pseudo from reality would you think all of the text you mentioned are divinely inspired or are you reading them to find out? |
