The URL has it all.

This is a thorough resource featuring the Tanakh, Deuterocanon, Pseudepigrapha, Dead Sea Scrolls, Philo of Alexandria, Flavius Josephus, and of course, the Talmud.

Kewl, thanks for bumping She. THANKS FOR POSTING ACHILLES.

This is just what the doctor ordered. It's already saved to my Favorites.

[SheWoff]

Mine too in the favorites. :-D

The threads that LBV has been posting prompted this for me. For others, it may be a different reason to learn and read. But so many questions I am having can be answered in these resources. :mrgreen:

Josephus is fine but do you truly understand the talmud? Have you studied it's background? Are you informed of the comments about our Messiah that are in it or the feelings of the authors of it toward the New Testament?

Amo 8:11 Behold, the days come, saith the Lord GOD, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the Words of the LORD

Isa 59:14, 15 And judgment is turned away backward, and justice standeth afar off: for truth is fallen in the street, and equity cannot enter. Yea, truth faileth; and he that departeth from evil maketh himself a prey: and the LORD saw it, and it displeased him that there was no judgment.


Only HIS WORD is infallible and a lamp to our feet and a light to our path.
Only HIS WORD will give us the mind of Christ and strength of Spirit to get through the days ahead.
If we had all of eternity, we could not exhaust the Truths held in His Word - yet we put it aside to explore "extra-Biblical writings."

Joh 8:37, 38 I know that ye are Abraham's seed; but ye seek to kill me, because My Word hath no place in you. I speak that which I have seen with my Father: and ye do that which ye have seen with your father.

To whom was Jesus speaking to here and who wrote the talmud?
What part did Jesus have with the Scribes and Pharisees and what else did he say to them about adding to the Torah-His Word, burdens that the people couldn't carry and about their added "traditions" and how far they'd travel to make one proselyte - and to make them what?

Again from Peter ~

2Pe 3:15,16 And account that the longsuffering of our Lord is salvation; even as our beloved brother Paul also according to the wisdom given unto him hath written unto you; as also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction.


What profit is it to the souls & spirits of men to put His Word aside to read extra-Biblical writings - most especially in these days, when deception is peaking, apostasy abounding and the strong delusion is about to be poured out?
