How do you explain the fact that when they were not discussing the indigenous inhabitants (who were Greeks) they referred to them as "Cyrenes of Cyprus" or "Levites of Cyprus"?

If they did refer to any Greeks as "Greeks of Cyprus" it would have seemed rather odd!


:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Acts 17:22
Paul then stood up in the meeting of the Areopagus and said: "Men of Athens! I see that in every way you are very religious.


8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8)

This is equivalent to "men of Cyprus" mentioned many times in the Bible!

Because it was understood and taken for granted, that these men of Athens just like men of Cyprus were ALL GREEKS!

Are you sure you want to remind everyone of how you were destroyed over the Byzantine Empire too?

More Greeks, this time from the Old Testament...


2 Samuel 16:15
And Absalom, and all the people the men of Israel, came to Jerusalem, and Ahithophel with him.

Proof positive that Oracle knows she is 'losing it' when she reaches for her crayons and the big bold stuff and all the punctuation!

Barking.

Yes, as I said, the Greeks were scattered everywhere! 8)


Joel 3:6
You sold the people of Judah and Jerusalem to the Greeks, that you might send them far from their homeland.


John 7:35
The Jews said to one another, "Where does this man intend to go that we cannot find him? Will he go where our people live scattered among the Greeks, and teach the Greeks?



But all this is just proving how wrong is GR! :D

He shouldn't go mixing his Old Testament (Hebrew) with the New Testament (written in Greek), even to save your sorry ass! :D
