DID JEREMIAH PROPHECY ABOUT JESUS BEING SOLD FOR 30 PIECES OF SILVER?

In chapter 27, verses 9 to 10 of the gospel of Matthew; a fulfilment of a prophecy about Jesus being betrayed for 30 pieces of silver, it is quoted and attributed to prophet Jeremiah. The problem arises when no mention of this event at all, it is found in the modern version of the book of Jeremiah; but instead, in slightly different manner, in the book of Zechariah 11:12-13. MATTHEW 27:9-10 Then was fulfilled what had been spoken by the prophet Jeremiah, saying, “And they took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of him on whom a price had been set by some of the sons of Israel, and they gave them for the potter’s field, as the Lord directed me.” ZECHARIAH 11:12-13 Then I told them, “If it seems right to you, give me my wages; but if not, keep them.” So, they weighed out my wages, thirty pieces of silver. And the LORD said to me, “Throw it to the potter”—this magnificent price at which they valued me. So, I took the thirty pieces of silver and threw them to the po

JESUS EXPELS A DEMON FROM A MAN

JESUS CLEANS A MAN POSSESED BY DEMONS 31And he went down to Capernaum, a city of Galilee. And he was teaching them on the Sabbath, 32and they were astonished at his teaching, for his word possessed authority. 33And in the synagogue there was a man who had the spirit of an unclean demon, and he cried out with a loud voice, 34“HA! WHAT HAVE YOU TO DO WITH US, JESUS OF NAZARETH? HAVE YOU COME TO DESTROY US? I KNOW WHO YOU ARE—THE HOLY ONE OF GOD.” 35But Jesus rebuked him, saying, “BE SILENT AND COME OUT OF HIM!” And when the demon had thrown him down in their midst, he came out of him, having done him no harm. 36And they were all amazed and said to one another, “What is this word? For with authority and power he commands the unclean spirits, and they come out!” 37And reports about him went out into every place in the surrounding region. LUKE 4:31-37 COMMENTARY After the incident in the synagogue of Nazareth (Luke 4:16), Jesus went to the Northwest shore of Galile

WHAT RACE WERE ADAM AND EVE

What race was the first human couple in order to give origin to all the different races we have these days?. That is question commonly asked to Christians by non-believers and sceptics. It is important to note that ‘race’ here is understood as phenotypical human groups, strictly based on similar physical appearance, and not by social or any other characteristics. WHAT THE BIBLE TEACHES The Bible teaches that all humanity comes from one single couple, name ‘Man and Woman’, (Adam and Ishsha)(Genesis 1:27; 2:32), commonly known as ‘Adam and Eve’ or ‘Man and the Life-Giver’ (Genesis 3:20; Acts 17:26). Even though it is commonly accepted that all races developed from three major branches, white, negro and yellow, from each of the three sons of Noah; Shem, Ham and Japheth (Genesis 6:10), there is no reason to attribute this to any other cause than they already inherited this racial differences from their forefathers, and ultimately from Adam and Eve (Acts 17:26; Malachi 2:10).
