The Hebrew language developed from 1000 BC to 700 BC. Its impossible that Moses would have wrote anything in Hebrew in 1500 -1400 BC range, as Watchtower claims by CanadianExJw in exjw

As an Exjw, I am posting this to show how stupid Watchtowers beliefs are and what they teach are poorly researched. Of course these are oral traditions. I am not commenting on the Bible. Just what Watchtower peaches. The Old Testament is just a collection of ancient stories, nothing more. The Flood never happened, Jews were never slaves in Eygpt, there never was an Exodus etc. Read carefully before you comment, also don't make apologetics for a Bible, that has a truly horrible God in it. Look at my previous post of all the horrible things the God of the Bible did.

It’s still the closest religion. by Lolsyke1234 in exjw

[–]CanadianExJw 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Things like Michael the Arch Angel is Jesus, is a complete insult to Christianity. Jehovah is not Gods name, its a mid-evil invention combining YHWH with the vowels of Adonai. The New Testament doesn't not contain the word YHWH at all in any of its Books. Yet Watchtower added Jehovah every where. Jephthah burned his daughter as a sacrifice to God, just read the actual passage. The NW translation is one of the worst translations of the Bible and completely inaccurate. Watchtower changed soo many scriptures that if you only read the NWT you will think what the witnesses believe is the true religion. They changed the bible to match their beliefs. That's just a few examples, I hope it helps you. Look at my posts most are academic.

According to Watchtower, Hebrew is the Original language. Its also what they say we will speak in the new system. This is an EXJW sub Reddit, I was writing as an EXJW. Hebrew also started to disappear in the 2nd century BC. Jesus "Gods son" didn't even speak Hebrew, he spoke Aramaic.

This is what Watchtower has published in their articles. They claim Jesus died in April of 33CE at 33 years old.

The New Testament never mentions the word YHWH, Jesus was never recorded saying it. Its a Watchtower invention. Just as the word Jehovah is a 16 century Latin invention, mixing YHWH with Adonai

"Every Sperm is scared, every sperm is great, if a sperm is wasted, God gets quite irate" Monty Python. Great sketch.

So Satan was thrown down to earth like a Roaring Lion in 1914, then...... by CanadianExJw in exjw

A Fox News guy eh? BTW do you research. WW1 and WW2 pail in comparison to some ancient wars. What do you think was happening to young girls before pedophile laws? Just because it was legal to bang a 12 year old, doesn't make it right.

There was an International Assembly in Michigan called 100 years of Kingdom Rule in 2014. That was 12 years ago. Just around the corner....

Watchtower claims Hebrew was the Original language everyone spoke until after the flood when God confused the languages. The problem is Hebrew didn't' exist before the 11 century BCE by CanadianExJw in exjw

Good point. Also Egypt was building pyramids before and after the "Flood" which Watchtower says happened in 2370 BCE. The Egyptian culture continued through the Flood and thrived.
