Blessed

[FBD]

meaning "light bringer"

[DemonGeminiX]

No. It means "light-bearer". And there's a difference.

I suggest you don't follow that twat DJ Khalid on snapchat Muddy. You'd implode. I think he's the one using the stupid fucking term most.

[Muddy]

The Jewish bible is the one that has all the crazy stuff in it.. with all the demons and stuff..

[DemonGeminiX]

You mean the Old Testament?

[FBD]

No. It means "light-bearer". And there's a difference.

is your differentiation anything outside of dictionary definition?

[Muddy]

You mean the Old Testament?

I guess..?

Do you really think the "dictionary definition" of the two words were always so similar in the entire history of human language? Now consider how old the Bible is, the languages it was originally passed down orally in, the languages it was later originally written in, and further the languages it has been translated into throughout it's entire history. But really, semantics is just a diversion from the history of the development of the religion and the stories found in Genesis. The reality is, semantics is irrelevant.

Consider that the changes that the text of the Bible has gone through throughout it's entire history. The serpent in the Garden of Eden is a very very old story, and it wasn't always the Devil/Lucifer/Satan. We're talking ancient history here. Fertile Crescent history. When you investigate the history of the people that originally came up with the Book of Genesis, see who they lived along side with at the time they came up with it, what those other people worshiped, and how the ancient Hebrews felt about those people and their religious beliefs, you'll come to an understanding that those pics you posted have absolutely nothing to do with anything at all.

The Tanakh, the Hebrew Bible, is the Old Testament of the Christian Bible minus some books and passages of the Apocrypha. Some of the books found in both are also in a different order in the Hebrew Bible.

and then consider that the ancient sumerian writings are much older than the hebrew stuff, and they dont play fairy tale about what caused the great flood, either - it wasnt "god" telling his "chosen ones"
