How many of you believe in the Promised Land concept?

Question

Why are the passages so inconsistent? Can anyone quote them all?

Answer 1

They are wildly inconsistent and none of them provide any north-south coordinates,which I think would be essential to a land-claim and well within the capabilities of an omniscient being. And yet every year Americans spend billions in tax dollars and watch an entire people displaced from their homeland because of this nonsense.

I think it's utter garbage.  

Answer 2

Not sure what you are asking but the Promised Land for the Hebrews was Jerusalem. For today's Christians it is the New Jerusalem which is heaven.

Exd 12:25 And it shall come to pass, when ye be come to the land which the LORD will give you, according as he hath promised, that ye shall keep this service.

Deu 9:28 Lest the land whence thou broughtest us out say, Because the LORD was not able to bring them into the land which he promised them, and because he hated them, he hath brought them out to slay them in the wilderness.

--------------------------------------...

Jos 22:4 And now the LORD your God hath given rest unto your brethren, as he promised them: therefore now return ye, and get you unto your tents, [and] unto the land of your possession, which Moses the servant of the LORD gave you on the other side Jordan.

Jos 23:5 And the LORD your God, he shall expel them from before you, and drive them from out of your sight; and ye shall possess their land, as the LORD your God hath promised unto you.

--------------------------------------...

Jos 23:15 Therefore it shall come to pass, [that] as all good things are come upon you, which the LORD your God promised you; so shall the LORD bring upon you all evil things, until he have destroyed you from off this good land which the LORD your God hath given you.

Answer 4

5000 years Ibrahim (a.s.) passed by our land he was welcomed by king salem of oor salem the city which later was called jerusalem and Alquds or beit almaqdes

Ibrahim stayed over here for few years bought a piece of land to be buried in "as long as god give the land to him then how would he buy one donum from palestinian"

then his grand son left to egypt and stayed there for over 2000 years once Moses decide to come to the promised land it took him over 200 years

more than 70 years for david to overcome palestinian who lived in jerusalem while his campus was few kms away from jerusalem and once they defeated palestinians in jerusalem again they bought a donum or so to buildled the temple"again here bought"

in 1948 Uk gave israel the land which was under its direct authority but UK is no god to give

so there is no such a thing called promised land

Answer 5

Isn't the Promised Land a brand of margarine?

Answer 6

Racism In Action. I see no fundie or jew was willing to quote any of the relevent passages. The core idea is genocide; kill everyone is Palestine and take over. NO. I don't believe it.  

Answer 7

There is nothing inconsistent about it, and yes, I believe in the Promised Land.  Israel did enter it, after a very long time.

Answer 8

The promised land is the land God promised to Moses and the Israelites in the book of Exodus.  It is now I believe Palestine.  The bible also calls it a land flowing with milk and honey.  God told Moses that he would not be able to go there but he'd let Moses see it same as the Israelites at that time because they had sinned while in the wilderness.  The term promised land is pretty repetitive in Exodus before they finally reach it.  When they did reach it it was inhabited by the Canaanites.

Answer 9

Abraham age 75, Gen.12:4; his father has just died at age 205, Gen.11:32; his father was born 222 years after the flood, it is now 427

years after the flood, Abraham has no children, but he gets the Promised Land covenant for the 4th generation after his heir Isaac has the heir [ Jacob ],  that produces the heirs [ Gen.15:13,16; Exo.6:16-23,26 ]; Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Levi, Kohath, Amram has Aaron and Moses Exo.7:7; 12:41; 430 years after covenant is at Exodus [ but when he had no son, 400 years applied ], after Ishmael [ age 19 ],  had left and Isaac [ age 5, born when Abraham was age 100, Gen.21:5 ]; was the only son left, and heir, then it is 400 years to the Exodus.

The heirs are 215 years at Exodus, after Jacob was age 130 at Gen.47:9,11; to enter Egypt with 70 family members, 215 years after the Promised Land covenant.

The Promised Land heirs are right on time to move into the Land given to them 471 years ago, by the time Moses dies and Joshua crosses Jordan, the land grabbing land pirates of Gen.14:1-18 have existed to 898th year after flood, Abraham's family had in Canaan and in Egypt were on land not their own,  but there has been no law and no law enforcers before, now these heirs have the law and are law enforcers,

at year 2554, 898 years after flood, and 1512 before Christ. This is long enough for sinful people to be without a law on the face of the earth, the reason for the flood, and the distruction of Sodom and Gomorrah, now the reason for the elimination of the land grabbing land pirates, to be replaced with people that have law and are law enforcers.

The map in every bible shows the land named after the tribes and the Levites are supported by all the others.

Answer 10

I think it's a load of c**p and every day the Palestinians must pay the price for American belief in this idiotic and racist myth.
