Resurrection and Dispensations!
Question: Luke 23:43: “..Verily I say unto thee, Today shalt thou be with Me in Paradise” OR “..Verily I say unto thee today, shalt thou be with Me in Paradise”. Which is correct?
Most Translations punctuate with the comer after “thee”, indicating that same day, He would be together with Jesus!
There is suggested that the comer should be after “today”, which indicates that the statement by Jesus is indicating a future “togetherness” with Jesus, after resurrection by the malefactor!
The discussion IMO hinges on the “Changes of Dispensation”, and whether at the Death of Jesus it had changed Almighty God’s rules!
A similar argument is proposed for the “transfiguration of Jesus”, where He is speaking to Moses and Elijah in front of Peter, James and John!
The discussion develops towards the time of the Resurrections of humans in different Dispensations of God’s timings; and bearing in mind Mark 12:26–27!
