This means that he should be capable of keeping his first wife and managing his children well,. the word "mia" can be translated as "one" and "first", This flows well with the teaching of Christ about divorce and also with the verses in Malachi 3:15,16 that say God is against one who deals treacherously with the wife of his youth (forsaking first wife) and that he hates divorce.
That is a quote from YOUR posting, so the reference I made was to what you had stated as fact.
ya know Leinad i noticed a posting a COUPLE PAGES AGO FROM some other person
but it had been retracted or deleted. but it was real right on target,
THE author posted a message telling how HE NOTICED people trying to tear the bible down
and what they do is take a 2000 yr old book
I do believe this comes under the heading of Chatting, as it adds nothing to the topic at hand.
pretend the english mis- translation of a word or sentence structure is somehow reflecting the origional bible. when the origional bible is clear and available to study
I don't read the original languages, do you?
I notice you post in the English translations to make your points and I did go to the effort of finding a site with the Greek and English. I also posted the word translations.
I did agree that the word, which on the site I went to was Kia...not Mia could be used as First, yet it had to have supporting text to change the original meaning of *one* to First. | |

| Biblical Polygyny Posted: 12/30/2005 12:28:52 PM | THE SUPORTING TEXT MY CHILD IS FOUND THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE BIBLE OF POLYGAMY
THE FIRST DAY MIA THE FIRST WIFE MIA after the first and second Admonition. MIA THE SUPPORTING TEXT YE WOULD LIKE TO SEE THERE WAS SLIGHTLY LEFT UNDONE.. WHEN A 2000 YR OLD BOOK HAS THIS PROBLEM. LETS LOOK TO THE ORIGIONAL WORD PASSAGE = " MIA THE SUPORTING ORIGIONAL COPY THE WORD OF GOD THE BIBLE NOT A VANITY MAGAZINE. OR A CHOOSE YOUR OWN ADVENTURE BOOK.
I did some research and FOUND THE FOLLOWING to be facts
MIA
THE number one" MIA" translated elsewhere also as "first".
We see this same in Titus 1:6, where the same word "MIA" "one" is Translated as "first" in .. Titus 3:10 to reject a divisive man after the first and second Admonition.
This same word "MIA" in Greek is also translated in several other Places in the New Testament as "first" rather than "one", for Example "first day of the week" in John 20:1.
Thus, it is also possible to translate the passages of 1Tim 3:2 and Titus 1:6 as saying that bishops and elders should be a Blameless, "first wife husband" (MIA") who is capable of taking care Of his household.
"MIA" can be translated as "one" and "first", this verse cannot be used to support the proposition that bishops and elders must be monogamous,
There is simply no ground against leaders being polygamous in these pastoral passages. IF YOU GO TO THE ORIGIONAL WORD MIA = FIRST No way. Also, in 1Tim 5:9, the specific numeric "one" is used in application to "wife of one husband" (Strong No. 1520).
Why wouldn't the same author of the same epistle use the same word? if he had meant a same absolute numerical "one" in both cases? T
He answer is obvious, the meaning of "first wife"
CAN YOU PLS EXPLAIN LU 14:26 If any man cometh unto me, and HATETH not his own father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple. THE MEANING OF THE WORD HATE IS MISTRANSLATED and he that HATETH his life WILL GAIN IT (hateth MISTRANSLATED)
If any man hateth not his father and mother, his children, and brethren, and sisters, yea and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple." THE interpreting OF THE the word hate, IS MEANING "He that loveth father or mother more than me, is not worthy of me; He that loveth son or daughter more than me, is not worthy of me." ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
And if thine eye causeth thee to stumble, PLUCK it out, and cast it from thee: ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
And if thy hand or thy foot causeth thee to stumble, cut it off, and cast it from thee:
EVEN CLEARER US THE FACT THAT THE WHOLE BIBLE IS IN FAVOR OF POLYGAMY AND WHEN SOME FINDS THE FOLLOWING ONE EXAMPLE OF THE BIBLE SEEMING TO CONTRADICT ITSELF LETS GO BACK TO THE MEANING OF THE ORIGIONAL GREEK. DOES POLYGAMY RUN CONSISTENTLY THROUGH THE BIBLE WITH JESUS HIMSELF LIKENING THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN as to a man to ten virgins planning to mary ONE MAN .
THE ORIGIONAL GREEK FOR THE FOLLOWING VERSES USE THE WORD
" MIA " MEANING FIRST
> > I TIMOTHY 3:2 > 2 A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of THE FIRST (HERE MIA IS THE ORIGIONAL GREEK MEANING FIRST )wife, vigilant, sober, of good behaviour, given to hospitality, apt to teach; > > I TIMOTHY 3:12 > 12 Let the deacons be the husbands of ((MIA FIRST))) wife, ruling their children and their own houses well. > > TITUS 1:6 > 6 If any be blameless, the husband of ( the FIRST) wife, having faithful children not accused of riot or unruly.
the origional translation is first MIA is used as the wors first in many other passages
WITH JESUS HIMSELF LIKENING THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN as to a man to ten virgins planning to mary ONE MAN. he knew it was a holy god given form of mariage. with the new testament setting straight what is wrong and right thus JESUS HIMSELF LIKENING THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN as to a man to ten virgins planning to mary ONE MAN. seemes the perfect parable. THE ORIGIONAL GREEK ONE WIFE AGAIN WE HAVE A MISREPRESENTED TRANSLATION FIRST IN THE ORIGIONAL IS " MIA "
MIA / IN GREEK AND USED IN MANY OTHER VERSES IN THE BIBLE IS USED AS FIRST YOU GOT TO KEEP REPEATING IT SOME LIKE TO FORGET IT . ASAP.

| Biblical Polygyny Posted: 12/30/2005 1:49:04 PM | I am not sure where you are finding this *Mia* word. The research I did says the word translated from Greek is (phoenitic spelling): heis hice one -- a(-n, -ny, certain), + abundantly, man, one (another), only, other, some.
Further more, the over use of Capital letters is annoying and against Forum rules as is the amount of preaching you are doing.
And please don't repeat the above post, you already have it in here 3 times, I do believe that is enough. Your condensending attitude certainly will not win you any followers of your belief system. | |

| Biblical Polygyny Posted: 12/30/2005 2:22:27 PM | Titus 1:6 and 1 Timothy 3:2, on the FICP site, you write: "Titus 1:6 and 1 Timothy 3:2,12 --- "One wife" --- mia is the Greek word (for the word, one, in those passages) which is actually used for first as in "first day of the week" in Matthew 28:1, Mark 16:1-2, and Acts 20:7.
FACT
Interestingly enough an inspired revision given to the New Covenant Church of 1 Timothy 3:1-13 (OB 324) says only that the Presiding Elder must be "above reproach, be faithful to his first wife, temperate, self-controlled, respectful, hospitable, able to teach" (v.2). This revision does not claim to be a literal translation of the passage in question but highlights the original concept of the author, which was marital felicity.
wasn't about monogamy/polygamy at all.
to pit a single or a pair of scriptures which might be saying 'Y' against hundreds of others that say 'X', for this is something done all too often by cults. The Bible, we must remember, is undeniably polygamous from cover to cover.
Furthermore, in 1 Timothy 5:9, a widow's "one man" is not mia but the Greek word heis, meaning the numeral-one, and not meaning "first"." | |
|
| Christian Biblical Marriage Posted: 12/30/2005 2:40:27 PM | First- Greek mia meaning one or first: is applied to the first day AFTER the SABBATH the first day of the week.
--- mia is the Greek word (for the word, one, in those passages) may also be translated as first, as it is, for example so translated in the phrases, "first day of the week" in Matthew 28:1, Mark 16:1-2, and Acts 20:7. Furthermore, in 1_Timothy 5:9, a widow's "one man" is not mia but the Greek word "heis",

| Christian Biblical Marriage Posted: 12/30/2005 5:23:18 PM | Mia All records say that Jesus resurrected in the end of the Sabbath, on the Bible day named Mia. (See the Judaic Greek word Mia translated into the Jews Greek Septuagint Gen. 1:5.} Mia See the Judaic Greek word Mia translated in the Interlinear Greek English New Testament, a translation by George Ricker Berry. In the Lexicon of this book, we see the Greek word Mia is correctly recorded as the Day "One "and not as the word indicating the "First day of the artificial week." The Greek Septuagint of the Jews, Gen. 1:5. Day One is the same day written in the Hebrew as Echad or day One in the Old Testament and translated by the Jews as the Greek day Mia (Gen. 1:5).
The Greeks of Greece never named their day Mia, but their first day of their week, was named Helos or Apollo, after their sun gods.
In the Old Testament Septuagint of the Jews, the record say that God begins to create the universe, at evening or with a beginning of dark on the Greek Hemera Mia, or Day One. Jesus gathered with his disciples in the evening, on the night of the scriptural day Mia (John 2019). The beginning day of Pentecost, begins at supper time or early dark, on the night of the Bible day

As I have been saying, heis/mia/hen mean exactly the same thing. Other than spelling and pronunciation, the only difference is grammatical gender. When this numeral is used with nouns, to denote '1' thing or 'a' thing, the gender of the numeral must agree with the gender of the noun with which it used. We can see an excellent example of this, which also demonstrates well that heis/mia/hen all mean exactly the same thing, in Ephesians 4:4-6:
»There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling; one Lord, one faith, one baptism, one God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all« (Ephesians 4:4-6, KJV)
»one body« = hen sôma, neuter gender.
»one Spirit« = hen pneuma, neuter gender.
»one hope« = mia elpidi, feminine gender.
»one lord« = heis kurios, masculine gender.
»one faith« = mia pistis, feminine gender.
»one baptism« = hen baptisma, neuter gender.
»one God and Father of all« = heis theos kai patêr pantôn, masculine gender.
I doubt very much that anyone would assume that mia meant 'first' in this passage, nor do we have any reason to render it here as 'a', because it is quite obvious that each occurence of heis/mia/hen in this Scripture passage really does mean literally 'one'.

That word "mia" (mee'-ah), meaning "first", is the exact same word for FIRST in John 20:19,
Acts 20:7,
and 1_Corinthians 16:2. All three of these verses refer to "the FIRST day of the week". Indeed, we can see this word for "FIRST" as meaning, "

For example, the FIRST day of the week is the Day-number-one of the sequence of seven days in a week. Thus, even simpler,
"the FIRST day of the week" can be seen as "the day-number-one of the week", which, of course, is Sunday.
Thus, because we can see that Greek word "mia" (mee'-ah) in that way, it also may be applied to those references to "ONE WIFE". That is, instead, it can thus be seen as "FIRST wife", or as "Wife-number-one" of a sequence.

| Biblical Polygyny Posted: 12/31/2005 10:10:14 AM | First off, it is not your thread to change the title on, How rude.
Second, what you don't seem to understand is, even centuries after the bible was written, experts can't agree on the translations.
Since I don't read the original language all I can do is rely on others that can.
I am sure you also can't read it or you wouldn't continually copy and paste from sites you won't even list.
Most languages have gender associated with a lot of their words, and as with most things what you add to the sentence can change the meaning of words
Just as from what I gathered there is no greek word for Day...yet I notice in most of the translations it is inserted.
I see no reason for your nastiness in your replys as no one has attacked you, only debated your posts. And I refuse to get involved in a flame war.
BUT if you continue to break forum rules I will not be surprised to see this thread closed or posts deleted. | |

| Hello all Posted: 1/11/2006 9:37:24 AM | There have been many wonderful posts, also a lot of controversey was stirred up as well, clearly this is a much hotly debated issue. We chose to be silent for a time to let feelings have a time to settle and hopefully come back to the Shalom (peace) that passes all understanding. There is much to be learned from Yahweh's Scriptures and peoples thoughts and also much to be lost by getting inflamed and angry over different peoples views on a subject. This we believe we have seen here in this particular discussion. We truly hope that everyone has grown from what they have learned here and pray that we can again discuss this in a peaceful and calm manner.

| After a period of cooling off. Posted: 5/23/2007 9:50:34 AM | I don't know how you can advocate polygyny in New Testament times in light of Paul's writings in 1 Corinthinians 7:2, "But since there is so much immorality, each man should have his own wife, and each woman her own husband" (NIV).
I don't know how you can interpret that verse to mean anything other than one woman/one man per marriage. If each woman has HER OWN HUSBAND, obviously she is not sharing her husband with any sister/wives.
Also if you take into account the words of Jesus in Matthew 19 when he teaches about divorce and God's intention for marriage from the very beginning, it is obvious that it was never God's intention that marriage be anything but a union between one man and one woman at a time.
"Haven't you read,' he replied, 'that at the beginning the Creator made them male and female,' and said 'For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the TWO will become one flesh.'? So they are no longer two but one. Therefore what God has joined together let man not separate.' 'Why then,' they asked, 'did Moses command that a man give his wife a certificate of divorce and send her away?' Jesus replied, 'Moses permitted you to divorce your wives because your hearts were hard. But it was not this way from the beginning. I tell you that anyone who divorces his wife, except for marital unfaithfulness, and marries another woman commits adultery" (Matthew 19:4-9 NIV).
I believe that if you honestly look at polyamgy in the Old Testament, you will see that it produced nothing but heartache in the lives of the people involved in it. I believe that we can see from Genesis two that it is God's will that marriage be between one man and one woman.
Look at Abraham. God promised him an heir, but instead of trusting God he took his wife's handmaid and had a son by her. He ended up sending her and her son away when the Son of Promise--Isaac--was finally born.
Jacob had four wives because his father-in-law, Laban, kept tricking him into working longer to win Rachel. The sons of the four wives were not close. Jacob obviously favored Joseph because he was the son of the wife he loved--Rachel. The brothers sold Joseph into slavery to Egyptian merchants because of their jealous over their father's favoritism.
I haven't even touched on the trouble David had because of his multiple wives. Solomon disobeyed God by taking women of the nation's around Israel who turned his heart to the idols. This was a great sin for Solomon.
As has been pointed out already, one of the qualification for an elder or deacon in the New Testament Church is that he must be the husband of ONE wife. Polygamy is not allowed. | |

| After a period of cooling off. Posted: 5/23/2007 10:40:19 PM | | We definitly understand your viewpoint however on some statements through much digging and prayerful contemplation we feel that Yahweh is revealing a different choice for our family. This is not to say that this is right for everyone, we have never claimed that to be so. We have done much study on the subject that you mention last about the elder and the deacon and feel that Yahweh and Ruach ha Chodesh have reavealed that this means that a deacon or an elder should be a husband at the very least and even better that he be a father, not that he should have only one wife, theier are many scholars who agree that even Yeshua's desciples had more than one wife and they were the founders of the Christian church, in esscence deacons and elders it has been revealed to us that a single man cannot hold this office. | |

Quote:"I surely wouldn't want "Hail Zeus" in the greek text (the greek name for Jesus) to be dizzy." Interesting theory. Any REAL corroboration? By the way, by the description of Zeus' sexual peccadiloes as described below....seems that Zeus might more likely be 'your' 'god', given his penchant for 'dipping his wick', so to speak, in many different 'pots', not to mention his amorous relationship with his 'sister'....as in 'sister-wife'? Sound familiar?
Quote:"Encyclopediam Infoplease: Zeus Zeus (zOOs) [key], in Greek religion and mythology, son and successor of Kronos as supreme god. His mother, Rhea, immediately after his birth concealed him from Kronos, who, because he was fated to be overthrown by one of his children, ate all his offspring. Rhea gave him a stone wrapped in swaddling clothes which he devoured immediately, not suspecting that the infant Zeus still lived. Later, Zeus tricked Kronos into disgorging his brothers and sisters and led them in a successful revolt against their father (see Titan). When lots were cast to divide the universe, the underworld went to Hades, the sea to Poseidon, and the heavens and earth to Zeus. Zeus was an amorous god. His first mate was probably Dione, but his official consort was his sister, Hera, who bore him Ares and Hebe. Zeus also loved Themis, Eurynome, Demeter, Mnemosyne, Leto, and Maia and fathered many gods. Famous among his mortal loves were Danaë, Leda, Semele, Thetis, Io, and Europa. His sons sired from mortal wives include Hercules, Dardanus, and Amphitryon. He was also the father of Athena, who was said to have sprung from his head. Supreme among the gods, Zeus, ruling from his court on Mt. Olympus, was the symbol of power, rule, and law. As the father god and the upholder of morality, he rewarded the good and punished the evil. The root meaning of Zeus is “bright” or “sky,” and in this sense he was god of weather and fertility. Thus he was worshiped in connection with almost every aspect of life. The most famous weapon of Zeus was the thunderbolt, but, according to some legends, he also possessed the aegis. The Romans equated Zeus with their own supreme god, Jupiter (or Jove). See A. B. Cook, Zeus (3 vol., 1914–40)." | |

| Biblical Polygyny Posted: 5/24/2007 11:00:35 AM | There are a number of interesting points you bring up, first of all, Zeus is not a god, he is a myth, as are his sisters, father, mother and all other greek gods. Satan in his finite wisdom would like to have Yahshua's name be changed to deceive the very elect.
The other point you bring up is very interesting in that you claim that perhaps Zeus is our god, as we like to have sex with our sisters just like he did. The difficulty with that is that Steve even if his sisters of which he has 2 were the most beautiful women on the earth, he would NEVER have sex with them. Steve will not think of his wife as his sister, she will be his wife, Kara will be her sister and Kara and her sister will never have sex, it is scripturally condemned as a lesbian relationship, and would never be condoned in this house.

| Biblical Polygyny Posted: 5/24/2007 12:06:43 PM | O.P, We should NEVER disobey mans law UNLESS mans law instructs us to disobey Gods law. *Im pretty sure that it is against mans law in your state to marry more than one person. | |
|
| Biblical Polygyny Posted: 5/24/2007 3:31:02 PM | You are correct about what you state, however there is a commandment in scripture for a man to take a woman to wife even if he is already married, clearly man's law IS instructing us to disobey Yahweh's law.
