[edit] Matthew 24:36

Matthew 24:36 (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

I don't find this Bible verse culturally significant enough to warrant its own article - as opposed to, say, John 3:16. Most of the content is just reprinting of the verse in various translations. Crystallina 04:20, 21 November 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete for much the same reasons as above. The article on kenosis is (or should be) the place to bring this verse up, rather than its own page. BigHaz - Schreit mich an 04:22, 21 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete per BigHaz, since this doesn't look like it can really be expanded beyond its current (and spartan) version). Daveydweeb (chat/review!) 04:36, 21 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete per all above. --Metropolitan90 05:46, 21 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete, I still don't think individual Bible verses are notable, especially with this little content. JIP | Talk 06:43, 21 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete un-encyclopedic drivel. The Crying Orc 08:59, 21 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete per above. wikipediatrix 14:33, 21 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Redirect to Gospel of Matthew. - Mig (Talk) 19:04, 21 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete per nom. "Doctrinal significance" is of enormous subjective import, but encyclopedias should be objective. --Masamage 02:06, 22 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep While I accept that this may have been set up as a POV post, the idea thet "you do not know the day or the hour" is a fairly important one in Christian theology. 62,300 google hits. Even allowing for the large number of hits that would be attracted for any Bible verse (31,900 for the verse before and 24,400 for the verse after) that shows that there's quite a lot of significance. "The day or the hour" attracts 39,200 hits. JASpencer 23:16, 25 November 2006 (UTC)
