Assyria in Old Testament prophecy

a reply to: DISRAELI


I am not at all confused.

Regarding the dating that is according to scholars and refers to date of composition, 600 BC and later.

Daniel is 200BC

It's not confusing at all.

I wasn't confused about anything else either or never would have spoken.

Put simply, if written after the fact like Isaiah and the whole Tanakh was, and by a long time and not by the person it's attributed to, it's pseudepigrapha by definition.

And not prophecy but pious fraud.

The more I read and see what actually did happen and the great variations of story's,what actually happened and the story we are being told,if the Jews were so persecuted all these years,why do they hold most of the world's gold?,sounds like a case of hiding the enemy,Isreal was created in 1948,hardly biblical times,plus who owns Isreal? Rothchilds since 1800's

In some ways, it's a side-effect of their exclusion during the Middle Ages. They were pushed out of many areas of life, but they could still trade, and they could lend money, which was taboo to the church. Lending money is a good, though risky, way of accumulating money.
