Talk:Epimenides

message: This entry contains the sentence: "The fourth line is quoted without attribution in the Acts of the Apostles, chapter 17, verse 28, which also quotes the Hymn to Zeus of the poet Cleanthes."
Compare with http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aratus and cross-compare with http://bible.gospelcom.net/cgi-bin/bible?passage=ACTS%2B17%3A28&showfn=on&showxref=on&language=english&version=HCSB&x=10&y=9.
According to these sources (respectively): 
"He [Aratus] even earned a quotation in the New Testament, where, in Acts, 17.28, Saint Paul, speaking of God, quotes Aratus' line "For we are indeed his offspring."
"17:28 This citation is from Aratus, a third-century B.C. Gk poet."
----
Confusion has been cleared away and noted in the entry. Cleanthes's fourth line is very much like Epimenides's which constitutes the reference in the first half of Acts 17:28; the second half beginning with "As some of your own poets have said," refers to the fifth line from Aratus's Phaenomena.
: (1) This is interesting, but since "For we are indeed his offspring" isn't a quotation of Epimenides, I don't know that it has a place in this article. (2) The article Epistle to Titus quotes Easton's Bible Dictionary as saying the authorship of the epistle is uncertain, so I don't know that we want to attribute it to Paul here. Comments? Wile E.

thread_title: Comments

message: In the section Epimenides Paradox it says:
:Saint Paul wants to warn Titus that "One of themselves, even a prophet of their own (referring to Jewish false teachers), said, the Cretians are alway liars, evil beasts, slow bellies."
There isn't a citation on the parenthetical "(referring to Jewish false teachers)".  Though it is supported by the surrounding text that Paul is referring to Jewish false teachers, the "prophet of their own" (Epimenides) was not himself referring to Jewish false teachers. So I think the sentence should be reworded to be clearly an explaination of Paul's use of the Epimenides quote, and not a quote itself.  How about something like this:
:Saint Paul wants to warn Titus of Jewish false teachers and writes that "One of themselves, even a prophet of their own said, 'the Cretians are alway liars, evil beasts, slow bellies.'"
But, this section doesn't flow that well with the rest of the article.

thread_title:  from VfD 

message: I visited the place last year. It was big: It stands 40 meters (130 ft) high from its base. I took a dozen or so pics from it. I posted one here. It deserves to be an article because it has some peculiarities, although built 2000 years ago, I saw what seemed to be some sort of plumbing made out of mortar inside its massive walls. It is also peculiarly similar in design to Ali Qapu palace of Isfahan. And it had a large underground chamber (filled now by rubble), probably a prison? The most interesting aspect of the structure was a huge platform or terrace of sorts which must have been used by the royals. The walls had caved in, and I wasnt able to reach it (the top royal platform) thru the helical staircase.
The reason it's not found anywhere on the internet, and looks like a humble "mud castle" is that it is EVEN TODAY being ignored entirely by the authorities. Iran is not very receptive and active in restoriung and preserving its pre-Islamic structures. It sees them as a sign of anti-Islamic decadence from the ages of monarchy. If the castle were located in France, or England, this castle too, would have looked something worth your scholarly  consideration.--Zereshk 01:49, 7 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Talk:Greek transcriptions of the Hebrew Divine Name

message: Seeker, I removed your additions by mistake (it was an edit conflict), but after reading them, I think they would be better in the Tetragrammaton article. I don't see how they relate to Clement's spelling direcly. Gadykozma 13:56, 16 Oct 2004 (UTC)
thread_title:  Edit conflict 

message: "Mission Impossible" is to find a method of reading "יהוה",
[the Tetragrammaton without vowel points], 
as "YaHWeH" without knowing beforehand that Clement of Alexandria pronounced  "יהוה",
as "ιαουε".  
And we will have to use normal Biblical Hebrew Grammar rules,
that were in effect in the 1st or 2nd Century A.D. 
And Gerard Gertoux will be looking over our shoulder,
because he believes that "יהוה"
is pronounced "Yehua",
"according to its letters". 
using normal Biblical Hebrew Grammar rules,
that were in effect in the 1st and 2nd Century A.D. 
We can probably safely say that the "yod" in "יהוה"
will be pronounced "ee" in first century "Greek",
and that this  "ee" in combination with any vowel,
[a or e or i or o or u] will probably sound like "Y" in 21st century English.
Some possible first syllable pronunciations of "יהוה" might be:
 
Ya or Ye or Yi or Yo or Yu
or
Yah or Yeh or Yih or Yoh or Yuh   
Gerard Gertoux chooses "YE" for the first syllable,
and "h" is the first letter of the 2nd syllable.
Of course we know that Gerard Gertoux must be wrong,
because if he is right,
we will not be able to pronounce "יהוה" as Yahweh.

Category talk:Châteaux in France

message: I've moved all of the châteaux into the better category :Category:Castles in France, completely parallel to Castles in other countries. Now I'm well aware that "château" has several meanings (castle, keep/dungeon, manor house, vineyard), plus the cultural rayonnement of France, that have caused this lack of parallelism, leading in turn to "châteaux" in Oregon and so on — but it's intrinsically POV; and I'll be editing Château to clarify the situation.
A word also on the names of some — most — of these castles. Noone refers to, for example, "Château Chenonceau": the French always refer to "Château DE Chenonceau", and of course in English, it's "Chenonceau Castle" or, is one is being pretentious, "Chenonceau Château".
This isn't true of some on the list (and I bet it's why the naming got systematized the way it was): wine domains are usually without the DE, as in the correct forms "Château Pétrus", "Château Mouton Rothschild", etc. I'm renaming the articles as I go; one or two have redirects in the wrong direction: I'll be contacting an administrator like we're supposed to. — Bill 16:14, 16 Oct 2004 (UTC)
