   thanks – Joe and his team did a great job, though it’s still a work in progress.

   Replacement theology affirms the obvious (the church is the new Israel) and then extrapolates to the unnecessary (there is no role for national Israel at all in the eschaton).

   I reject the latter idea. It overstates the data.

     Mike, that puts it nicely, though I rather see it as “fulfillment theology,” as opposed to “replacement theology,” as “replacement” tends to legitimize the extrapolation you rightly reject.

     Along the same lines: Any idea as to what Paul was doing with the Isaiah quotation, “The Deliverer will come from Zion…,” when the Masoretic has “to Zion” instead, and the Septuagint has “on behalf of Zion” (or thereabouts)? Any clue as to what Paul was doing here with “from Zion?” Where did he get this from? Some Aramaic targum? What do you think Paul was up to with this?
