Hi David, Tempting, but perhaps we should concentrate on the threads already started before we move to this issue.

They were blamelessly keeping the Torah at that point in time, but they had perhaps broken it at some earlier time. So then, are you agreeing with the idea that a person can forsake past sin and walk blamelessly in the Lord's commandments? Peace be with you.
