Jesus Question to forum Christians: Where's all the carpentry?

[The Last Conformist]

Also, isn't teutones a Latin word???

It's a Latin word, but it's in all probability derived from a Germanic name akin to deutsch etc.

 

[CurtSibling]

It comes from an early Germanic word, "Þeudanōz" - According to wiki.

Jesus built my hotrod.

Jesus was an architect, previous to his career as a prophet.

Robin Williams pointed out a funny thing.

Up until one point the bible is full of old jewish names, Moses, Noah, etc. and then you get Mary and Joe. Whats up with that?

Mary and Joe are old Jewish names, too, it's just that we still use 'em. They'd be just as weird if they were just as unfamiliar.

The woodwork is gone because it rots. Only chairs made from Yggdrasil would last long enough, and Jesus pretty well ignored Odin his whole life.

My computer table was bought from the 'giant' Ikea in Jormungrund.

since he has shown he had the tech to replicate stuff (a few loaves of bread into many), he has all the nails he ever needs. just take some from his hands or feet.

also mary originally was maria (i guess the hebrew pronounciation is not that far from the latin one?) and joe is derived from joseph. (iosephus - ioshua in hebrew?)

 

[Valka D'Ur]

I thought Mary is a derivative of Miriam -- an Old Testament name.

 

[MagisterCultuum]

When I looked it up that is what I found (well, spelled Maryam), but from in church I'd always been told it was from Mara, the name taken by Naomi in the book of Ruth, which means Bitter.

 

[Huayna Capac357]

I think it is from Miriam (who was Moses' sister IIRC), which, in turn was deriven from an Egyptian name "mrn," "my beloved one."

Sorry to say Perfection, the story is he gave up the carpentry so he could get the higher paying job of being the Son of God.

So Jesus was like a carpenter, right?

So shouldn't there be like Jesus carpentry around, like tables or houses or whatever?




Anyways, please answer my question n' keep on rockin'!

 

[Perfection]

Well shouldn't there be stuff from when he was a carpenter?

Jews were known for their songs, and Jesus could simply part of a band called The Carpenters - the original.
