Torah, Jews, Son of Elohim vs ‘Son of God’, Judaism vs Christianity, Genesis 6:2

Jan 16 2012 Published by admin under Hebrew Torah

Regarding the concept ‘Son of God’:

The only authentic account of the first century Ribi Yehoshua  – the Jewish Messiah – recognized by his original followers, is Hebrew Matityahu. In the Hebrew Bible (which Christians call the “OT”), the Hebrew phrase ‘ben Elohim’ (a son of Elohim) refers not to a divine man-g*o*d but to the family of Torah-observant Jews, our Torah-observant ancestral family line, and melakhim (messengers [of the Creator]])! The phrase is first found in the plural at be-Reishit 6.2, 4; Iyov (corrupted to “Job”) 1.6, 2.1, 38.7.

This is further corroborated by all related similar Hebrew phrases found in the Hebrew Bible. The phrase ben Eil khai (son of the living Eil) found in Hosheia 2.1 explicitly refers to benei Yisraeil (sons of Israel), i.e. Jews, not man-g*o*ds!

Tehilim ['Psalms'] 29.1 urges benit Eilim (sons of g*o*ds) — clearly referring to Jews and not man-g*o*ds — to ascribe honor and strength to the Creator.

The only remaining instance, in Tehilim 89.7, again refers either to melakhim,

In no case does ben Elohim mean a divine man-g*o*d!

This necessarily means that the same Hebrew phrase in Hebrew Matityahu has the identical meaning: a messenger of the Creator or a Torah-observant Jew (whom are messengers from the Creator).
Thus, there is no suggestion, nor even allusion, in the phrase ben Elohim in Hebrew Matityahu implying anything more than that Ribi Yehoshua was one, among many other, Torah-observant Jews in Israel. [A changed quote from www.netzarim.co.il ]

The Christian term “Son of God” contradicts the term ‘Son of Elohim’ from the Hebrew Bible. They are mutually exclusive concepts.
