livingchrist: nothing like that in the bible, the plural of majesty is a recent construct popularized by queen Victoria. The bible is much older than queen Victoria. Deuteronomy 6 vv4 uses plurality of unity Meaning the Lord is a unity of persons. When was the original bible translated into English language? |
Christianity Etc › Re: How Is The Majestic Plural Used In The Bible And It Misconception By Christians. by ictplotter(op): 10:06pm On Dec 09, 2020 |
Regene2020: Firstly you must be a confused Muslim because Christianity has no issue with accepting any passage of God where he refers to himself as "WE or "US"
It is rather an affirmation of the trinity when God says "Us" or "We".
Your majestic misconception is coming from a Islamic perspective because only Islam finds it difficult to explain why Allah uses "we" or "us" in quran e.g in creation of Man (I don't believe God can be referring to him and his angels here since he can't equate angels to himself to create man, so who then is this we).
By the way majestic and character are two different things
When this term of "we" or "us" are used in the scriptures (Bible or Quran) it is used by the God of these books himself to qualify his personality so it's not up to a human to interpret it because it's what the God said about himself.
Question now is whether this is a Majestic or Characteristic statement from God about himself?
Answer is it is a characteristic statement of God referring to who he is
If God wanted to just show his majesty as you put it he can use I AM, The Greatest etc
But referring himself as "US" or "WE" it's a simple deliberate revelation into his character and personality.
To finally decimate your theology that this is a character not majestic statement
Quran 21:17 Mohsin Khan: Had We intended to take a pastime (i.e. a wife or a son, etc.), We could surely have taken it from Us, if We were going to do (that).
(Interpretation: This "We" is boasting that if he intended to take a "wife" he would take it from "Us". This is not a figurative or Majestic statement but a reality, taking a wife is a reality not majestic and he is taking it from himself, which means you can only be more than one to take a wife from yourself).
This last illustration of Allah confirmation that he is more than one in reality not just a majestic statement by Muslims when they see "we or "us" You wasted your school fees. blind, deaf and dumb. |

Christianity Etc › How Is The Majestic Plural Used In The Bible And It Misconception By Christians. by ictplotter(op): 5:45am On Dec 09, 2020 |
The majestic plural is also known as the "royal we." This term refers to the use of a plural pronoun when speaking of oneself. Another more general word for the majestic plural is "nosism." The word "nosism" derives from the Latin route word "nos," meaning "we." The majestic plural is a stylistic device used to give honors to nobility. One of the most memorable nosistic phrases comes from Queen Victoria, who would say, "We are not amused," when turning up her nose at a tasteless joke.
Using the majestic plural indicates power and greatness. Its Western usage is saved for people who have authority, such as popes, bishops, and monarchs. Often, people of low rank would use this device when speaking to someone in an official capacity.
The Latin language has another term for the majestic plural, which is "pluralis majestasis," or "the plural of majesty." This construction does not exist solely in Latin or English, but also in ancient Hebrew, Punjabi, Telugu, Hindustani, and Egyptian Arabic. The president of Egypt is often called "Your Excellencies," which is another way to indicate prestige.
God refers to Himself using plural pronouns four times in the Bible. These verses occur before the doctrine of the Trinity is mentioned in the Bible, so we can infer that God is using this stylistic device to make His power evident through language. The four times that God uses the majestic plural occur in the Old Testament. The most quoted example occurs in Genesis 1:26. God says, "'Let us make man in our image, after our likeness. ...'" Here, and also in Genesis 3:22, Genesis 11:7, and Isaiah 6:8, God uses the pronouns "us" and "our" to speak of Himself in plural form, this doesn't subordinate or been assisted by jesus christ in creation of man, just as some Christians will claimed. Both christ and everything was created by God almighty without any assistant of His creations. The "US" used by God Almighty here is majestic plural in English, while the Hebrew language of the bible, "US" wasn't used.
One of God's most common names in the Old Testament is Elohim, which translates literally to "gods." However, when Elohim is used to describe the One True God, it is translated to "God." This is a fascinating word play in translation that teaches us how the majestic plural can be used in a word that is not a pronoun. An example of this translation of Elohim occurs in Deuteronomy 4:35. It states, in part, that, "The Lord is God." Translated into Hebrew, this is "Yahweh is Elohim." Note the use of plural "Elohim" coupled with singular "Lord." This shows that there is only one God, and the plural usage is meant as a majestic plural. Yahweh and Elohim are also coupled in Deuteronomy 6:4, which very clearly says that there is only one God. |

Nobody will blame the bible and christianity as dirty, heartless and ritual money religion but let one mallam musa from kano, repeat this same crime. Islam n the entire Muslim will be tag wick, heartless and money ritual religion. If Christian commit a crime, th blame goes to him alone but if a Muslim commit same crime, the blame goes to Islam. Not knowing that Islam is perfect but the Muslims are not. Individual or a group of persons characters can never portrait the true tenets of every religion except their various sacred book. |

ehis010: Did you people take time to watch the video at all? Johnson Suleiman hasn't said anything different. He said God showed him in order for him to pray against it (interceed) because if Biden wins he'll be impeached for Kamala Haris, and Biden is not the issue. This doesn't mean that Trump won't still become President like the others have prophesied because ots possible God has heard their prayers (intercession) and therefore Trump will be president. So suleman gods abandon those numerous problems we have in Nigeria, and who will be the next America president is what is important to Suleman and his gods, despite boko haram, kidnapping, banditry, raping, police brutality, bad leadership, poverty etc in Nigeria. The gods must be mad. Emancipate yourself from this religious slavery. Those gods of men are threats to human mental development. |
