TaxationIsTheft (nprofile…9w7h) Mr. Bacon (nprofile…grcp) nprofile1qy2hwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnddaehgu3wwp6kyqpqau5ea8kup6utzyfxqjyh233ndzxzde02wqzcqvagawse3yxszztsz9l9qk (nprofile…l9qk) Scoundrel (nprofile…hd4m) Mephi (nprofile…dyq8) Tbh Scofield is one of the first Christian exegetes in history who didn't just ignore the majority of the Old Testament prophets and it's not his fault that when you read the entire Bible you necessarily come out with a more jewish-centric interpretation than Christians historically did.
There are so many specific land promises and other prognostications that can only feasibly apply to a literal earthly kingdom of Israel populated by the ethnic tribes of Israel, and those never happened, so you either have to say those prophecies aren't true and the Old Testament isn't a reliable source of knowledge, or that the jews are going to be restored and those fulfillments are going to happen in the future.
The Fathers rarely commented on those books, and when they did they came out with uselessly vague readings, because they're impossible to reconcile with "orthodox" Christian tradition.
