Bob @arlingtonbob.bsky.social · 12/07/2025Psalm 22 begins "My God! My God! Why have you forsaken me?" In the Gospels of Matthew and Mark, Jesus yells this question from the cross. Psalm 22 also has enemies dividing the speakerl's garments among them, which is a crucifixion story 010 1
Bob @arlingtonbob.bsky.social · 12/07/2025At the time the Old Testament book of Job was written, conventional wisdom was that bad outcomes were divine punishment for misdeeds. Job refutes that . For modern readers, Job's claims are obvious: Job has a straw man sound to me, probably to many others. Maybe the Book of Job changed some minds. 010 1
Bob @arlingtonbob.bsky.social · 09/07/2025In one of the ickiest passages in the Bible, 2 Kings 20:19, Isaiah tells Hezekiah that Babylon will capture Jerusalem and castrate his son and heir. Hezekiah says"All good, not in my watch!" 😰 010 1

Bob @arlingtonbob.bsky.social · 25/06/2025I have a hard time getting my head around this, but the statements of Jesus about coming again, the parosia, do not contract statements about salvation. And there is no time limit. So various followers of Jesus could believe these things, and nothing hinged on a prediction that refused to happen. 110 1
Bob @arlingtonbob.bsky.social · 03/06/2025"...[All] of life is a symphony of successive losses. You lose your youth, your parents, your loves, your friends, your comforts, your health, and finally your life. To deny loss is to lose it all anyway, and to lose in addition your self-possession and your piece of mind." He nailed it! 000 0

Bob @arlingtonbob.bsky.social · 29/05/2025If your argument for complying with the 14th amendment in regard to birthright citizenship is that it is inconvenient, maybe impossible, then your only legal recourse is to repeal it . Otherwise, you support illegal acts, funded by federal tax dollars. Research "Rendition" 000 0
