This should prove to be an interesting conversation.

LDSA restated my position beautifully, so thank you for that. I particularly like the partly defined as one parent.

As for the changed parentage I'm actually more open to that idea than I once was though I feel the new parentage may have something to do with becoming firstborn which would link this thread to Abijah's. I wish I had more time to chime in but pesky work and life have kept me busy.

I'm not even necessarily closed off to the time alternation ideas from LDSA as I would be extremely hypocritical preaching the folly of saying what can't be on one hand and then saying what can't be on the other. The only way to combat false traditions and conclusions is to be humble, teachable, and be open to receiving thoughts that are above your own from the Lord.

What thread are you talking about?

Another thread in which I wish I had time to chime in!

One of the most important lessons I've learned in deciphering end times prophecies is the why is more important than the when, what, where, how, etc. Why things unfold the way they do - why there is a Davidic Servant - why Israel is gathered and what that means - unfolding these mysteries are key and that deep understanding trims out so much of the when, what, where, how speculation.

I still find your views on Manasseh carrying out such a big last days role very exaggerated. Your line of reasoning is filled to the brim with interpolations and private interpretations in your attempt to tie it all together.

Why speak of three when they are only two?

1.Christ Stem Hebrew (geza)= to cut down
Servants Branch Hebrew (natzer) = descendants like Nazareth

2.Jesse and Ephriam Rod Hebrew (shebet)= staff, club, scepter

3.Jesse and Joseph Root Hebrew (shoresh) = deep root, or desendants
