You proved my point. Paul uses tradition as well as scripture. As for the exegisis on Exodus, that's pretty much what I said. There's nothing in there about the rock following them. Thus, as the note from the NAB graciously points out, Paul is using a rabbinic legend(read: tradition) in developing his theology about Christ. Hence, had the Bereans used the same criteria which modern Protestants do, they would have excoreated Paul for adding to Scripture.
Off to Good Friday service. Peace be with you.
Peace be with you.
Thanks. The same with you.
