March 10th, 2009 | Torah | 2 Comments
Welcome to part four of the series on the
when the law passed. This lesson on
Eschatology – Have Heaven and Earth
Passed?, Part 4,focuses on Matt. 5:17–18.
The Lord gave very specific details
concerning the fulfillment of the Old
Covenant.
He tied it to the passing of heaven and
earth. Those unfamiliar with covenant

“Did the Law of Moses Continue Until A.D. 70?” The blog post begins with a
reference to the present ...

Much has been written on the prophetic
text of the Babylonian exile of Judah in
an attempt to answer the question,
When are Daniel’s 70 Weeks Fulfilled?
Perhaps no prophetic text suffers more
at the hands of exegetes than does that
of Daniel 9:24–27.
Dispensationalist Thomas Ice and others in that movement argue for
a literal interpretation of the 70 weeks.
However, their literalizing of the text results in both a logical contradiction and abandonment of their premise by inserting a 2000 plus year gap.
They insert thousands of “weeks” into the final week resulting in non-fulfillment of the prophecy. However, the prophecy contains a very simple guide-post ...
