It is a trick question--so think carefully before submitting your answer... The Question again is: Why was Moses the most violent person in the whole Bible? Quote Luke 4:19To preach the acceptable year of the Lord.
there buster Posted March 11, 2009 Posted March 11, 2009 I didn't know Moses was the most violent person in the Bible. I did know he was the first one to play tennis in the Bible. :) Quote “the slovenliness of our language makes it easier to have foolish thoughts.” George Orwell

Members phkrause Posted March 11, 2009 Members Posted March 11, 2009 I think truth-believer you mean '09 not '08, unless you are in a time warp! pk Quote phkrause When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice; But when a wicked man rules, the people groan. Proverbs 29;2
Members phkrause Posted March 11, 2009 Members Posted March 11, 2009 Even though its a trick question, I can't begin to wrap this around my brain. It hurts! hahahahaha pk Quote phkrause When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice; But when a wicked man rules, the people groan. Proverbs 29;2
Members phkrause Posted March 11, 2009 Members Posted March 11, 2009 Dgrimm that sounds like a really good guess! That's got to be it. pk Quote phkrause When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice; But when a wicked man rules, the people groan. Proverbs 29;2
GreatLakesGramma Posted March 11, 2009 Posted March 11, 2009 I doubt it. Remember, it's a trick question. That means the answer is not a sensible one, it's usually some kind of play on words.

Woody Posted March 11, 2009 Posted March 11, 2009 I think the clue must be the reference to Ichabod. Something about tennis. Quote May we be one so that the world may be won. Christian from the cradle to the grave I believe in Hematology.
Woody Posted March 11, 2009 Posted March 11, 2009 Well .... I do know he could be considered the most evil one. He broke all ten commandments in just the matter of a few seconds. Quote May we be one so that the world may be won. Christian from the cradle to the grave I believe in Hematology.
Members rudywoofs (Pam) Posted March 11, 2009 Members Posted March 11, 2009 How about when Moses dared to strike God when he hit the rock instead of speaking to it? Quote Pam Meddle Not In the Affairs of Dragons; for You Are Crunchy and Taste Good with Ketchup. If we all sang the same note in the choir, there'd never be any harmony. Funny, isn't it, how we accept Grace for ourselves and demand justice for others?
True-believer Posted March 12, 2009 Author Posted March 12, 2009 Keep thinking... one person in this forum is very close to the answer... Why is Moses the MOST violent person in the Bible? sorry, but there's no prizes for the winner because we all live too far away and it costs too much for postage and handling for overseas... Tomorrow night, Adelaide time--South Australia--before the opening of the Sabbath I'll post the answer for you all............... But seriously... somebody already have posted previously above the answer I am thinking about... But there is more than one posted solution above........ Which one is right????????? C ya tomoorrow night!!!!!!!! Quote Luke 4:19To preach the acceptable year of the Lord.
Outta Here Posted March 13, 2009 Posted March 13, 2009 Moses was the most violent man in the Bible because he struck the Rock. (Like rudywoofs said...) Quote
Members phkrause Posted March 13, 2009 Members Posted March 13, 2009 In that case why would that make him any more violent than samson who killed a 1000 men with the jawbone of an ass, or David who killed a lion. It has to be something else! Just guessing! pk Quote phkrause When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice; But when a wicked man rules, the people groan. Proverbs 29;2
Outta Here Posted March 13, 2009 Posted March 13, 2009 Rock=Jesus I don't think it was meant to be a literal question, but a "trick" question. Quote
Woody Posted March 13, 2009 Posted March 13, 2009 What about those who crucified Jesus on the cross ... that would be more violent against Jesus than just being struck by Moses. Just guessin here.

True-believer Posted March 13, 2009 Author Posted March 13, 2009 The answer to the question is............ Why is Moses the MOST violent person in the whole Bible? The Answer... It's a Biblical Answer... Did you manage to have the right guess... Exodus 32:19 And it came to pass, as soon as Moses came nigh unto the camp, that Moses saw the calf, and saw the dancing: And Moses' anger waxed hot, and Moses cast the tables--The Ten Commandments--out from his own hands, and BROKE THEM ALL from beneath the mount. Moses broke ALL Ten Commandments in the ONE go... The only person to get this right is Redwood... Well done Redwood, but like I said, the only prize we can give you because of our distance between here and there is our LOVE and GRATITUDE... Thankyou to ALL those who contributed to this Poll #1... God bless you all and have a very happy and blessed Sabbath. Quote Luke 4:19To preach the acceptable year of the Lord.
