Regarding Ezekiel 38-39, no, I didn't get it from a source. It's probably shaped by my readings on the Prophets, but I can't be sure. It might come from Grant Osborne's lectures on Revelation. His commentary on the book (in the Baker Exegetical Commentary series) is my favorite on the book; Greg Beale's (in the New International Greek Testament Commentary series) is also excellent, and I may have seen something like it there. I don't remember what I used when I was working through Ezekiel apart from class notes, sorry

Sorry about that.

Hey, so a little birdie told me you've been to Ecuador! When/where'd you go?

I think Iv'e asked this before, but I just noticed (in the Michigan thread) that you grew up in Troy and live/ go to school in Grand Rapids.

So I was just curious... Do you go to Cornerstone University? I know quite a few people who go there...

Also where in Troy did you live?

What can be done about the jerrylove/nolidad issue? I'm tired of every interesting topic to discuss getting hijacked by a these two for the purpose of a personnel argument. From my perspective I think the blame is fairly evenly shared. While it may be true that nolidad makes the more extreme and inflammatory statements, it appears often times that the only reason jerry enters the conversation is to attack nolidad. Those two should not be allowed to post in the same thread. I'm not sure if mods can address this, maybe you can pass it to an admin if that's what's necessary. And maybe I'll just have to live with it.
