Was there a new religion started when the temple was destroyed the first time? Was there a realignment of the religion when Solomon's gold shields were taken and replaced by bronze ones? Was there a new religion formed when the first temple was built and the tabernacle fell into disuse? Was there a new religion formed when the tribe of Ruben built an alter on the banks of the Jordan, or when the, tabernacle was built, or when Jacob built an alter? If not then the destruction of the second temple didn't signal a new religion either.
I Kings 12 records King Jeroboam starting a new religion for Israel. Aaron also stared the new religion of the golden calf. Neither worked out so good.

The answer to that question lies in these questions:
Why did Eva and Adam eat the fruit?
Why did the pre-flood population reject God?
Why didn't Pharoah let God's people go?
Why did Israel so often fall short of God's commands?

Num 22:22 And God's anger was kindled because he went: and the angel of the LORD stood in the way for an adversary (satan) against him. Now he was riding upon his ass, and his two servants were with him.
Num 22:32 And the angel of the LORD said unto him, Wherefore hast thou smitten thine ass these three times? behold, I went out to withstand (satan) thee, because thy way is perverse before me:
Here God declares himself satan: or against Balaam. Just make sure you are listing to the satan who is an adversary of Baal, Bel, Dagon et.al.

Moses offered to enter into a contract while passing through lands on his way to the promise land. I believe this is as close as you will get to a requirement to obey the laws of other nations.

Gen 32:32 Therefore the children of Israel eat not of the sinew which shrank, which is upon the hollow of the thigh, unto this day: because he touched the hollow of Jacob's thigh in the sinew that shrank. Isn't this a tradition recorded in the  ? Tradition Vs. the Law of God. Amos 5:21 I hate, I despise your feast days, and I will not smell in your solemn assemblies. Amos 8:10 And I will turn your feasts into mourning, and all your songs into lamentation; and I will bring up sackcloth upon all loins, and baldness upon every head; and I will make it as the mourning of an only son, and the end thereof as a bitter day. Jude 1:12 These are spots in your feasts of charity, when they feast with you, feeding themselves without fear: clouds they are without water, carried about of winds; trees whose fruit withereth, without fruit, twice dead, plucked up by the roots; Matthew 15:3 But he answered and said unto them, Why do ye also transgress the commandment of God by your tradition? Matthew 15:6 And honour not his father or his mother, he shall be free. Thus have ye made the commandment of God of none effect by your tradition. Mark 7:9 And he said unto them, Full well ye reject the commandment of God, that ye may keep your own tradition. Mark 7:13 Making the word of God of none effect through your tradition, which ye have delivered: and many such like things do ye. Colossians 2:8 Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ. 1 Peter 1:18 Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers; |

I Cor. 1: 10 Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you; but that ye be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment. 11For it hath been declared unto me of you, my brethren, by them which are of the house of Chloe, that there are contentions among you. 12Now this I say, that every one of you saith, I am of Paul; and I of Apollos; and I of Cephas; and I of Christ. 13Is Christ divided? was Paul crucified for you? or were ye baptized in the name of Paul?
I Cor 3:4 For while one says, I am of Paul; and another, I am of Apollos; are you not carnal?
They had denominations but denounced them.

The best argument for the pre-flood language being Hebrew that I have heard is, there are no non-Hebrew names used prior to Babel. What ever the pre-flood language was, we know that the pure language will be reinstated and was briefly on Pentecost in Acts when everyone could understand what was being said.

Mark 12:25 & Matt 22:30 seem to show that angels don't procreate, and we will be like them:
For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of God in heaven.

Deuteronomy 12:21English Standard Version (ESV) If the place that the LORD your God will choose to put his name there is too far from you, then you may kill any of your herd or your flock, which the LORD has given you, as I have commanded you, and you may eat within your towns whenever you desire. Even when the temple was standing, one could make offerings outside of the temple. alon, the comments about the land rest and nidah don’t have a direct relevance to making sacrifices, they were offered as comments to Benayahu’s comments to the law/ only applying in certain situations. 2 Chron 36:21 To fulfil the word of the Lord by the mouth of Jeremiah, until the land had enjoyed her sabbaths: for as long as she lay desolate she kept sabbath, to fulfil threescore and ten years. Also see Lev 26:34-35 I concede that Israel broke many other laws other than the land sabbath causing them to go into captivity. The length of time the land sabbath was broken determined the length of their captivity. When Israel was in captivity they were not given liberty to continue to break any of God’s laws including the land sabbath. And we are not at liberty to break any of God’s law’s today because there is no earthly temple. |

If offerings were performed before and during the Temple's existence, why do they not apply after the temple? Did God change or what?
If Israel went into captivity because they did not allow the land to rest, how does that make it okay for them to break the law that they're being punished for breaking? Very confusing.
When a woman is set apart due to her flowers or child birth, isn't the man bound by the same law not to lay with her, so that she can be set apart?

Num 5:17 And the priest shall take holy water in an earthen vessel; and of the dust that is in the floor of the tabernacle the priest shall take, and put it into the water:
Some of the time the "color" of truth is enough to convince people of something. Here the priest takes something clean (water/holy water) and something unclean (dust) and mixes them as a kind of trial. If this mixture goes into a clean woman, her body rejects the dust and is clear of the accusation. If her body rejects the holy water, then her body condemns her. This is not what the catholic priest is doing. He is attempting to change the state of the consumer instead of identifying the state of the consumer. This is just a small twist of scripture, with huge implications for those deceived by it.

What we have in Exodus is this: God says at the beginning that he will harden Pharaoh's heart (Ex 4:21, 7:4-5). The hardening of Pharaoh's heart is then described in several different ways:
• Pharaoh's heart became hard (Ex 7:13, 23)
• Pharaoh hardened his heart (Ex 8:15, 32)
• God hardened Pharaoh's heart (Ex 9:7, 10:20)
However, when the Bible says Pharaoh hardens his heart, it also says that this happened "just as the Lord had said" (Ex 8:15). In particular, consider Exodus 9:34-10:2:
When Pharaoh saw that the rain and hail and thunder had stopped, he sinned again: He and his officials hardened their hearts. So Pharaoh's heart was hard and he would not let the Israelites go, just as the LORD had said through Moses.
Then the LORD said to Moses, "Go to Pharaoh, for I have hardened his heart and the hearts of his officials so that I may perform these miraculous signs of mine among them that you may tell your children and grandchildren how I dealt harshly with the Egyptians and how I performed my signs among them, and that you may know that I am the LORD."
In other words, Pharaoh's hardening his heart is considered to be the same as God hardening Pharaoh's heart. Pharaoh did the actual hardening, and God sending the plagues triggered the hardening. Pharaoh decided on his own to not listen to God and let the Israelites go. But God knew how Pharaoh would react in any given situation, and deliberately placed events in Pharaoh’s life causing him to act the way he did.
Why would Pharaoh harden his heart against God? Because Pharaoh, The Great House, was the god of Egypt. For Pharaoh to accept God he would have to step down from being god.

No whiz. Just using word searches.
Ps. 101:3 I will set no wicked thing before mine eyes: I hate the work of them that turn aside; it shall not cleave to me.”
Jeremiah 10:2 Thus saith the LORD, Learn not the way of the heathen, and be not dismayed at the signs of heaven; for the heathen are dismayed at them.
3 For the customs of the people are vain: for one cutteth a tree out of the forest, the work of the hands of the workman, with the axe.
4 They deck it with silver and with gold; they fasten it with nails and with hammers, that it move not.
Deut 12:30 Take heed to yourself that you are not snared by following them, after they are destroyed from before you; and that you inquire not after their gods, saying, How did these nations serve their gods? even so will I do likewise.
Ex 23:2 Thou shalt not follow a multitude to do evil; neither shalt thou speak in a cause to decline after many to wrest judgment:
1 Corinthians 15:33 Be not deceived: evil communications corrupt good manners.

"End" is one of those words that have more than one meaning. One of those meanings is goal
For Messiah is the goal of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth.

Who is Jesus? He is the living Word. So Jesus is the Word of God. So of course he fulfilled the Sabbath and all Laws of God. God's Word contains the Law, therefore Jesus is the Law of God. To be "under" the law is to be guilty of breaking the law. To be "under" grace is to be released of the penalty (death) of the law. When someone is released/pardoned from the penalty of the law, it is not so that they can go break the law and be brought back under the law. It is so that they can have life and live within the Law/Word/Jesus/Salvation of God. what do EMT, firemen, police e.t.c do who has to work on a saturday, do they get a pass because of their job?
