*>King Herod was an Edomite, not a Hebrew. Edomites are referred to
as
*>"jews", but Hebrews are not.
*>
*>It's true that the patriarch of the Edomites, Esau, was a descendant
of Eber
*>(which made Esau a Hebrew), but he married jews [read: Canaanite
women] and
*>was exiled from his people. He and his descendants for tens of
generations
*>never intermarried with, socialized with, nor had any other contact
with,
*>the true Hebrews (one of whom was Jacob, from whom all Israelites
are
*>descendants).
*>
*>How do we know this? Jesus told these jews [read: Edomites] that
the they
*>were the "remnants" of Abraham, but not his true descendants.
*>
*>John 8:37 I know that ye are Abraham's seed; but ye seek to kill
me,
*>because my word hath no place in you.
*>John 8:38 I speak that which I have seen with my Father: and ye do
that
*>which ye have seen with your father.
*>John 8:39 They answered and said unto him, Abraham is our father.
Jesus
*>saith unto them, If ye were Abraham's children, ye would do the
works of
*>Abraham.
Such as emulating him and marrying their half-sister and then lying
about it to keep from getting killed.
*>
*>The word "children" is translated from the Greek word "teknon" which
has two
*>meanings: "children", and "descendant". The word "seed" is
translated from
*>the Greek word "sperma" which has two meanings: the male sperm, and
*>"remnant".
*>
*>In this instance, Jesus obviously wasn't claiming that they weren't
*>"children", so it means "descendants". And He obviously wasn't
claiming
*>that they were male sperm, so the only alternative is that He was
referring
*>to them as the "remnant" of Abraham.
*>
*>iow, by that time, 30-40 generations had passed since Esau was
kicked out
*>and these Edomites were 99.9999999% Canaanite and 0.00000001%
Abrahamite.

You're an idiot. Did you get that from Abraham? Tell your sister/wife
hello. And don't forget to fuck the maid.
