Well, since the argument started to deviate into a messianic debate, may I
suggest to concentrate, to begin with, on a single word:

bemotav

It is uniformly translated as

in his death

How so? The word is in plural in every mss, even in Qumran.

So, it is either,

in his deathS,

or, from boma,

his altars

I would love to read any arguments to the contrary.


Sincerely,

Vadim Cherny
