Something more to consider
Reti red professor and uni versi ty dean, StanSeidner contendsi n "TheKnohl Hypothesi sand `Hazon Gabri el,`" that i t refl ects the Apocalypti c beliefsof the day, many whi chare foundi n the Dead
Sea Scrol l s, asantecedent andpredictive wri tingsof Chri sti anity. He al so suggested the use of i nfra -red technologi cal applications, si mi lar to what had been utili zed on DeadSea Scroll Material in
the recent past. Chal l engingKnohl`s"Two Messi ahs" theory, Sei dner notedthat, "Knohl srel i ance upon what he calls, the `Gl ori ficati on Hymn,` i n support of a fi rst Messi ah srel ati onshi pwi th

You`re overlooking something
Have you ever read Hosea 6:2? 2 After two dayswi l l he revi ve us: i n the thi rd day he wi l l rai se usup, and we shal l l i vei n hi ssi ght. Thisverse i sn`t about a messi ah. Thi si sabout Ephrai m(The
Ki ngdomof Israel ). Hosea spendsa l ot of ti me tal ki ng about howIsrael (Not Judah. Judahi ssti l l there.) wi l l be restored. 4 O Ephrai m, what shal l I do unto thee? O Judah, what shal l I do unto
thee? for your goodnessi sas a morni ng cl oud, andasthe earl y dewi t goeth away. Again, Ephraim, menti oned at the topof th e tablet. If thi stabl et i sapocl yptic i n nature, then onewoul dexpect
Israel to be restored. It j ust makes more sense that way then to i nsert an i dea about a ressurecti ng messi ah. Had i t not been for Jesus, no one woul d be sayi ng any-thing about someonecoming
