@MonicaCellio I would be really interested in an answer to Mike's recent questions about Daniel 2 from a Jewish perspective, if you have time. If not, any chance I could convince you to comment on it in chat?
@Jas3.1 I will take a look. Thanks for letting me know there's a specific interest. (I have a theory about ten toes but want to see if I can support it with sources first.)
It seems from this question, its comments, answers, and chat, that the word "heresy" and any of its derivatives can be seen as offensive. We are a non-doctrinal site and so there's no such thing as orthodoxy here. Therefore, anyone addressing some point of view as a "heresy" is not making a val...
@JonEricson who the heck is "voice of Jesus", whcih declares itself as "not a Christian site"? (I think I can guess, but I found no "who we are" page on their site.)
@JonEricson it doesn't sound like it addresses the question (or previous comments) to me. For what that's worth, coming from someone with less knowledge than y'all about those particular books.
@MonicaCellio @JonEricson It's not obvious from the link in the comment that the verse is specifically rejected by those who reject Paul's theology as a heretical Christianity.
In which case it seems more like advertising for a particular sect attached to any question which happens to be about Paul

Single-use tags automatically expire after a few months. This is arguably the right thing when the tag is a misspelling (though I'd prefer some way of reviewing the process — but this post is not about that). However, if the tag was clearly deliberate, the default should be not to delete it. I pr...
@Ali: I don't see how that link has anything to do with the question at hand. In essence it's spam in every way except that it's not commercial in nature. I'm also deeply concerned with the use of the word heretic. I'm deleting this comment and asking you to not use that word (or any derivatives) and not to link to irrelevant material on this site. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation. — Jon Ericson55 secs ago

P.S. I am working on answering this question, but I can't find the St. Symeon quote yet and haven't been able to fully understand the exact context in which he said this (to where I am positive I sufficiently understand it). — DanJun 2 at 17:02
I never found a source for that quote (most likely it was quoted by a foreign scholar and neither the primary source nor the work that cited it are translated into English yet)
@Dan Nope, missed that. Now that you mention it, I do remember reading it. Sometime in the past. And then managing to NOT see it sitting there right in front of me the last five times I've opened that question.
