Talk:Promised Land

message: "According to the Bible, the Land of Israel (Hebrew: Eretz Yisrael) was "promised" to the descendants of Hebrew patriarchs Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob by God, making it the Promised Land." I don't think this is correct - the "Promised Land" was a much larger area than "Eretz Yisrael".24.64.166.191 05:56, 23 May 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: There are all sorts of disputes about what the exact boundaries of the "promised land" were/are, but whatever they were they constituted "Eretz Yisrael". Jayjg (talk) 17:53, 23 May 2005 (UTC)

text: Either you believe or you don't. if the bible is believed or it is not! Then you need to go back to school and learn how to read! Why do you, It is not to proselytes which you added. reread the Bible and stop adding to what God said! 2600:1700:9091:4BC0:6870:9D3B:368B:AE6B (talk) 16:47, 6 November 2023 (UTC)

message: The officially recognised version of the borders of the promised land is that which was declared by theodor herzl, in effect the founder of israel as we know it today, in collaboration with the rothschilds, and which version was presented by rabbi fischmann to the United Nations.  You do not get any more official or credible and informed than that.  I will post the corrected version of this article once more in seven days' time unless I have received compelling information to the contrary before then.  In the meantime I would request that you refrain from publishing the grossly misleading and deceptive article that appeared here previously.  In future I will report you and anyone else who outrageously deletes an edit without first resolving the disputed information, and I'll thus have your IP blocked from ever accessing this resource again.

:I am sorry to tell you that these claims are false. There is no one named "Rabbi Fischmann" and there was never a speech in the UN. This is an anti-Semitic fabrication popularly used in sites such as http://www.marxists.de. Unless you are able to back up your claims by reliable sources, such as UN archives (primary sources) please stop spamming this. Jewnited (talk) 19:42, 15 February 2016 (UTC)

message: Could you explain the point of underlining all lines which refer to the "giving" of the land in this article? BongoPedro 11:43, 17 Sept 2007
*It is to highlight where in the passage the promise is mentioned. This is helpful it the longer passages. Chesdovi 11:54, 17 September 2007 (UTC)

message: Quick survey. Do you want this article merged with Land of Israel?
:yes. The two concepts are essentially identical; a paragraph called promised land ought to be enough. Emmanuelm (talk) 15:06, 30 March 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Emmanuel! After so many discussion here you say that there is no negative opinion?! I'm totally negative with this merge!--Submitter to Truth (talk) 19:22, 4 July 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: As soon as I add the sections you can find useful material here as well. Promised Land and Land of Israel have different meanings while some people understand it same. And I want to qoute different understanding of promised land here which one of them is Land of Israel. There exist many that don't think so!--Submitter to Truth (talk) 02:48, 11 July 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: The article was just changed in a way that wanders into the territory of other articles. I've reverted to an earlier version. Doug Weller (talk) 06:16, 11 October 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Merging this article and [[Land of Israel]]

message: Guys, I want to add the following sections to the article:
*Promised land in the Bible
*To whom was the promise?
*Promise and Covenants
Hertz1888 claim that there is a consensus against this and more discussion may needed, Please guide!--Submitter to Truth (talk) 18:57, 9 July 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Specifically that (per the discussions at Talk:Land of Israel) the promise was through Isaac and Jacob, not through all descendents.  Also, this article was shortened to direct readers to Land of Israel, possibly preparatory to a merge, but here you are lengthening it again.  Those are my main concerns. Hertz1888 (talk) 19:14, 9 July 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: My Friend, Who speak about Isaac and Jacob here? I want to add that sections and include different opinions under it. for sure there is different opinions about this items. And as I told before , I'm not positive to merge this article with Land of Israel and there is different meanings here. Not everyone understand same meaning from the two phrases.--Submitter to Truth (talk) 02:39, 11 July 2008 (UTC)

replies: text: This article is not a perfectly reasonable summary; it is a blatant violation of NPOV on a theological & political topic which is highly controversial.  It could be valuable as a survey of opinions or a history of the views, but there will be no consensus on the factual matter addressed.  (EnochBethany (talk) 18:11, 11 January 2016 (UTC)
