Amen!!

By the decree enforcing the institution of the papacy in violation of the law of God, our nation will disconnect herself fully from righteousness. When Protestantism shall stretch her hand across the gulf to grasp the hand of the Roman power, when she shall reach over the abyss to clasp hands with spiritualism, when, under the influence of this threefold union, our country shall repudiate every principle of its Constitution as a Protestant and republican government, and shall make provision for the propagation of papal falsehoods and delusions, then we may know that the time has come for the marvelous working of Satan and that the end is near. {5T 451.1}

וְיַעֲקֹב אִישׁ תָּם

yaakob ish tam

The KJV translates this verse as "Jacob was a plain man" but it contains only 3 words in Hebrew. Most of the verses containing the word translated "plain" are in Job. Every time the word tam appears in Job it is translated as "perfect". Job is described  as a  "perfect" man. The word tam is also translated as "upright" and "undefiled" in Proverbs and the Solomon.

Jacob is described as "perfect" because he lived in a tent (Gen. 25:27).

Not sure what your point is here?

Perhaps I have a question rather than a point. Does the text mean that Jacob was plain/perfect because he lived in a tent or he lived in a tent because he was plain/perfect? The word translated "plain" is used ~13 times in the OT. It is translated "plain" just this once. Most of the time it is translated as "perfect" in Job. Job 1:1, 1:8, and 2:3  this word  describes Job as a "perfect" man. Why do you think the text in Genesis is talking about Jesus? The verse is describing the difference between Jacob and Esau.

Oh sorry I meant the text in 1 John is referring to Jesus.

Living in a tent doesn’t make one perfect or righteous. But because he is humble and following God, he is not ostentatious. Therefore living by simple means seems to fit. What do you think?
