Israel refuses to distribute extra blankets to Palestinian prisoners

I have no friends murdering, it is your Zionist friends targeting and killing in Palestine.

Why do you call them my friends?

Sadly, they attack and kill Christians too.

And Jesus does not drop in for coffee, where did you get such ideas about Jesus?

I know why Jesus doesn't stop at your place for coffee. He can't stand the hatred that drips from your every pore.

And he definitely can't stand the "people" you constantly support and encourage.

Jesus does not stop for coffee anywhere, He lives in the hearts of those who believe in Him.

Sad you do not know Jesus.

I do know Jesus. I have lunch with him at Old Country Buffet every Sunday.

He's a cool guy. Loves entertaining the kids by parting the Jello molds. :thup:
 
Jesus was a Nazarene who lived in Palestine.

" palestine" is not and will never be a Country; You bigot . :evil:

HOW rich, you refuse to recognize another people as you call another a bigot!

Certainly, you do well in disclosing yourself as the bigot you are!


However, Mrs. Sherri, on a Middle East forum, when someone is only concerned about Palestinian prisoners and not the other prisoners in the Middle Eastern jails, nor is worrying about enough blankets for the freezing children who are refugees living in unheated tents, this certainly discloses to us who the bigot is.
 
This " christian" denies " jesus" was Jewish; This excuse For Muslim Terrorism swears that "" jesus" is Palestinian :cuckoo:

Jesus was a Nazarene who lived in Palestine.
Jesus was a Nazarene; born in the Kingdom of Judea (Bethlehem), raised in the Kingdom of Israel (Nazareth); both of which were within the Roman Province of Judea (Iudaea)...

The Romans only gave the entire region the name Syria Palaestina in 135 A.D. (CE) - a century after the death of Jesus.

During Jesus' lifetime, the only fragment of that region referenced as anything even close to 'Palestine' was the Gaza Strip, then called 'Philistia'...

Correct?

Even back then, the Gazans were the Odd-Man Out...

There was no Kingdom of Judea Jesus was born into, just a Roman Province named Judea. There was no Kingdom of Israel either. And Palestine was the name for the land going all the way back to the days of Herodotus.

Palestine was a name given to the land by the Romans as an insult to the Jews. As much as you want to make it that Jesus was not a Jew, I would suggest that you contact some scholar in a Protestant Seminary and ask him about this.

Oh look, a Baptist (who is unlike Mrs. Sherri) is working with the Jewish archeologists.

This summer researchers unexpectedly had a breakthrough while examining a known part of the city dating back to the 10th century B.C., reports Israeli newspaper Haaretz. Led by Steven Ortiz of Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in Fort Worth, Texas, and Samuel Wolff of the Israel Antiquities Authority, the team discovered traces of a walled city beneath those 10th-century ruins. The newly discovered remnants appeared to have been occupied 200 years earlier, during the Iron Age I period (between 1,200 and 1,000 B.C.), per a statement from the Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary.

"We had no evidence that Gezer was a walled city,"

Sally is mistaken.

The name Palestine dates all the way back to the time of Herodotus.

He mentions the land of Palestine in multiple places in his writings and he is not simply just referring to the coastal area where the Philistines lived.

Other Greeks wrote of Palestine, in their writings, Plutarch and Aristotle are two of them.

The word Jew did not even exist when Jesus lived as a man in Palestine.

You can translate Greek, Mrs. Sherri? Well who would have known?

Where did the name Palestine come from?
"Where did the name Palestine come from?"

The name "Palestine" refers to a region of the eastern Mediterranean coast from the sea to the Jordan valley and from the southern Negev desert to the Galilee lake region in the north. The word itself derives from "Plesheth", a name that appears frequently in the Bible and has come into English as "Philistine". Plesheth, (root palash) was a general term meaning rolling or migratory. This referred to the Philistine's invasion and conquest of the coast from the sea. The Philistines were not Arabs nor even Semites, they were most closely related to the ancient Greeks originating from Asia Minor. They did not speak Arabic. They had no connection, ethnic, linguistic or historical with Arabia or Arabs. The word Palestine (or Palestina) originally identified the region as "The Land of The Philistines", a war-like tribe that inhabited much of the region alongside the Hebrew people. But the older name from antiquity for this region was not Palestine, but Canaan.

All of a sudden, we are to believe that Mrs. Sherri is a scholar. However, the bottom line is that the people who were living in the area way, way back were not the ancestors of s today's Arabs..
 
Your point, Sally?

THE name Palestine came from the name for the Philistines but over time a broader portion of land came to be called Palestine. It's borders shifted over time, at times including Syria. Palestinians later became Arabized.

The people became Arabized when Arabs controlled Palestine. They took on Arab customs and religion. Another word for this process is assimilation. Some Arabs from other places came to Palestine, too, but primarily the people there were Arabized.
 
Cultural assimilation*is the process by which a person or a group's language and, or culture come to resemble those of another group. The term is used both to refer to both individuals and groups, and in the latter case it can refer to either immigrantdiasporas*or native residents that come to be culturally dominated by another society. Assimilation may involve either a quick or gradual change depending on circumstances. Full assimilation occurs when new members of a society become indistinguishable from members of the other group. Whether or not it is desirable for an immigrant group to assimilate is often disputed by both members of the group and those of the dominant society.

The point is that the Arabs of today are not the people who lived in that area in ancient times. Since this is the Middle Eastern forum and you are acting as the scholar tonight, how about giving us the ancient history of all the countries in the Middle East? After all there were people who were living there at the time, and surely you must know all the ancient people who lived in the area say from 5 a.d. back to 1000 b.c. Are you up to that assignment?

Philistines Aegean sea invaders. Not native to the coastal region of the eastern Mediterranean. Not Phoenician, Canaanite, Hebrew or Egyptian.
Pork eaters, animals typical to greeks and romans.

They are their descendants.

The name for the Philistines is simply the origin of the name Palestine, the name Palestine came to refer to a larger area then just the coastal region and the inhabitants of this land can all be referred to as Palestinians.
 
"...There was no Kingdom of Judea Jesus was born into, just a Roman Province named Judea..."
Incorrect. Judea had become a client-state (tribute-paying kingdom) which was ruled by the Herodian Dynasty at the reported time of the birth of Jesus (4BC-4AD approx), but it was still ruled by a Jewish king, collaborating with and under the protection of Rome.

"...There was no Kingdom of Israel either..."
That is correct. I was wrong. I mistakenly utilized the generic and commonplace name given to the northern section of the Hasmonean and Herodian Kingdom ( Herod - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia ) and tossed that in as adequate, when it was neither adequate nor accurate.

Correction: Jesus was raised in Nazareth, in the northern reaches of the Roman client-state of Judea - a.k.a. the Herodian Kingdom - on land formerly occupied old and (by then) defunct Kingdom of Israel.

"...And Palestine was the name for the land going all the way back to the days of Herodotus."
Nolo contendre.

No contest.

Never said otherwise.

Hell, I'll go you one better, and state that the name 'Palestine' - in an early form - was used to describe some of those lands as far back as the 1100s in Egypt.

What I said was that on maps of the time of Christ - maps of the Roman Province of Judea, and its Herodian Kingdom (Kingdom of Judea) client-state - there is no mention of Palestine on modern-day reproductions of those provincial maps, except for the imperfect references to Gaza as 'Phillistia'.

The label 'Palestine' appears to have been resurrected in approximately 135 A.D. after the last of the Jewish rebellions had been suppressed by the Romans and after the Romans had renamed that region as Syria-Palestinia.k

However, ancient travelers didn't see all these Arabs that Mrs. Sherri wants you to believe were there. I don't believe the Jews or Christians living in the area considered themselves as Arabs. In fact, a priest in Nazareth has said just recently not to call the Christians Arabs as they were there before the Arabs.

Since you are so busy talking about assimilation, then I would state that all your Iranian Muslim friends should assimilate in the U.S. and not have to have their separate groceries and other stores. They can all use the same supermarkets as Americans do since they will be eating the same food as the majority of Americans do. Let's see. So many of those Iranians came here right after the Revolution so by now they should all be assimilated into all the American customs that have served people since this country was started.
