@rajk999 saidYou really have got this seriously wrong pal
You are a Catholic hence your ignorance. The Maccabees has 4 books.
@medullah saidSeems like they also removed your brain. You are not a Catholic and yet you seem to think that they are some authority. Why are you referring to their website?
You really have got this seriously wrong pal
The last thing that I am is Catholic after the violence that was dished out to me as a child
And as for the books of Maccabees if you go onto the catholic web site it states 2 books of Maccabees.
Of course this confirms what I was beginning to suspect that you are way off the beaten track - by the way if you ask all thos ...[text shortened]... re that good they will correct your thinking; not sure that anyone will be able to put you straight.
@rajk999 saidThis is where you go, talking down to people.

The Greek Septuagint, the bible used by the Apostles, has 4 Maccabees. Go educate yourself.
@medullah saidDidymus
This is where you go, talking down to people.
The only bible that I'm aware of that has the book of Maccabees in it is the Douay version, which has a canon of 73 books, two of which are the books of Maccabees.
So yes I would assume the Catholics are an authority on the bible that they produce - if not them who else?
I am referring to their web site for your education. It's either education that you need or humility, possibly a helping of each.
@medullah saidIF you talk garbage and I correct you and you continue to insist that your garbage is correct then I will talk down to you because you have demonstrated that you are a damn fool.

@kellyjay said"...from the wrath of the Lamb, for the great day of their wrath has come, and who can stand?"
Much is made of God being love, He is love, but that doesn't mean anger cannot come from Him either. I love my kids, and if someone attempted to harm them, there would be love for my kids, and anger towards the one who is trying to harm them. So we see this,
"...from the wrath of the Lamb, for the great day of their wrath has come, and who can stand?"
A day is approach ...[text shortened]... rone, and from the wrath of the Lamb, for the great day of their wrath has come, and who can stand?”
@rajk999 saidYou are so full of your own greatness and up your backside, you just don't get it do you?

Do you think that Christ and the Apostles used the Catholic bible? What kind of moron are you?
@medullah saidHow’s all that puffed up complaining you were doing coming along; you know, about the personal attacks in here..?
You are so full of your own greatness and up your backside, you just don't get it do you?
@medullah saidYou are as dumb as a doornail. Whether or not the Maccabees were included in the Septuagint [the bible of the Apostles] is not a matter of opinion but a matter of fact. It was included, all four of them. The Catholics removed two of them. Who cares why. The Catholics removed several other books as well. There is nothing to argue about.
You are so full of your own greatness and up your backside, you just don't get it do you?
It would help if you actually read was typed before launching into personal attacks.
Let me make this nice an easy. We know many of the scrolls that were in used by those of Jesus's day because he and the disciples frequently quoted from them; they never quote from the two books ...[text shortened]... a whale; both of the Jesus boys were born on the 25th December; and that there were three wise men??
@medullah saidI looked it up and found this. 🙂

@kellyjay saidWho cares. There are just two issues here.

The books of 3 and 4 Maccabees – What are they?
https://www.compellingtruth.org/third-fourth-Maccabees.html
Most agree 4 Maccabees was written prior to AD 70. It is listed as canon in the Georgian Orthodox Bible. The other Maccabees, 5 Maccabees, is also known as the Arabic 2 Maccabees, and was written much later. Most Protestant chur ...[text shortened]... ns do not consider any of the five Maccabees books to be canon, or part of the inspired Word of God.
