welcome to the adventures in the combat
0:10
dictionary What's up guys guess what
0:14
time it is it's time to take another
0:16
look inside the dynamic Zanderan Compact
0:19
Bible Dictionary to see what it says
0:30
"Procelite a foreign resident often
0:38
H I think we're going to take a look at
0:41
this word stranger Here we are on the
0:44
word stranger On page
0:47
568 it says "Foreigner who put himself
0:51
under protection of Israel and Israel's
0:57
what who submitted to many requirements
1:01
of the law of Israel and who was
1:03
therefore given certain privileges?" Wow
1:08
So as far back as the book of Exodus
1:11
they were already people who were
1:14
strangers to Israel that they allowed to
1:21
Wow So let's continue our reading about
1:26
The word only appears four times in the
1:29
New Testament in Jesus's de
1:33
denunciatory discourse in Matthew 23:es
1:38
1-39 One of his serious charges against
1:42
the scribes and the Pharisees hypocrites
1:45
is ye compass sea and land to make one
1:50
procelite and when he is made ye make
1:54
him twofold more a child of Gehenna than
2:00
yourselves That word gehenna means hell
2:06
Let's continue The other three New
2:08
Testament occurrences of the word
2:11
procelite are all in the book of Acts
2:16
Hm In the long list of places and people
2:21
represented in Jerusalem on the day of
2:24
Pentecost Jews and procelites Acts
2:28
2:10 are mentioned of the 3,000 who were
2:33
swept into the Christian movement that
2:36
day and the hundreds more who soon
2:40
joined them The probability is that
2:43
there were many hundreds of procelites
2:47
Oh wow guys that means when the Holy
2:51
Spirit fell on them it fell on the Jews
2:55
and the Gentiles This is simply amazing
3:00
It further says when it came to the
3:03
selection of the first deaconite that
3:07
means deacons in acts 6:es 1-6 one of
3:13
the seven was Nicholas a procelite from
3:18
Antioch one of the first deacons was a
3:28
Number four after Paul's great sermon in
3:32
the synagogue at Pacidian Antioch Acts
3:38
13 verses 14- 41 we read that many of
3:44
the Jews and devout procelites followed
3:48
Barnabas Now that is another great fact
3:52
guys From this point on in the record we
3:57
cannot distinguish the procelites The
4:01
Gentiles came in great crowds and the
4:05
Jews became jealous and hostile
4:09
H a distinction was appropriately made
4:14
between uncircumcised procelites those
4:17
who had not fully identified themselves
4:20
with the Jewish nation and religion and
4:24
circumcised proelites those who
4:27
identified themselves fully with Judaism
4:32
Guys if I didn't know any better I'd say
4:35
this God not only wanted Jews to be
4:38
saved but other nations as well That is
4:42
simply amazing Well that's it for this
4:46
episode So until next time Quam Yashar
