The book, "Breaking the Code? Poetic Meter in Biblical Poetry," is a unique blend of memoir, academic research, and content designed for a general readership. This book, for the first time, systematically and clearly reveals the existence of poetic meter in the Song of the Sea, the Song of Deborah, and most of the hallelujah psalms in the book of Psalms. This discovery carries significant implications for the study of biblical poetry, the interpretation of psalm titles, the historical and cross-cultural context of Hebrew poetry, the analysis of the Hebrew language, as well as New Testament studies.

The Babylonian attack on Jerusalem in 587 BCE forced upon the Israelite survivors the realization that Yahweh, one of the gods they had venerated, was an overwhelming presence in their affairs. The attack on their city had been devastating, overturning virtually the only world they knew. Such a disaster had been prophesied by several prophets of Yahweh who had warned them against worshipping other gods than Yahweh and ignoring his commandments. These prophets reminded them that in the ancient past Yahweh had established a special relationship with their people, binding them to himself through a covenant in which Yahweh promised to protect and lead their people while they were to honor him as their only god and keep his commandments. The community of survivors living as exiles in Babylon, and their heirs who would return to Judah after 539 BCE, believed that Yahweh had caused the destruction of their society because of the refusal of their people to abide by the terms of the ancient covenant. Indeed, they saw it as an act of Yahweh's love, an appeal for them to honor him as their only god so that he could show them his favor. Anthropologist Robert Canfield examines the process by which this transformation in religious understanding took place, describing it as an example of how human beings imaginatively imbue their affairs with moral significance.

El propósito de este libro es mostrar la historia, doctrina y la relación profética entre el Antiguo y el Nuevo Testamento. La conclusión es que, en su esencia, desde el Génesis hasta Malaquías, el Antiguo Testamento es una sombra del Nuevo Testamento. Vamos a reducir esto a términos simples; el tema de toda la Biblia es el deseo y el plan de Dios para tener una relación con nosotros. En el Antiguo Testamento Dios prepara un pueblo a través de los cuales un Mesías vendrá. En el Nuevo Testamento, el deseo y el plan se cumplen en el nacimiento, vida, muerte y resurrección de Jesucristo. Para simplificar aún más, el tema del Antiguo Testamento es: el Mesías ha de venir, trayendo salvación. El tema del Nuevo Testamento es ¡el Mesías está aquí, trayendo salvación!"Mi fe creció a medida que leí el libro de John y me di cuenta de una manera más profunda de cómo las Escrituras me proporcionan una descripción de la actividad de Dios en toda la Biblia que es coherente, planificada y claro. Vi el carácter amoroso de nuestro Padre en el cielo que ha trabajado para tener una relación con nosotros desde el principio de los tiempos." - Gregg Marutzky (del prólogo)

RUTH: God's Favor with a Caress of TruthA Gentle perspective from the rural side of lifeThe unit of study you hold in your hands describes the way of the life of the farmer in Midwestern states. In the day of the book of Ruth, through the knowledge offered from the Bible is the clear unity of God to a female He loved. We explore the groundwork and learn how God made viable His graft of the lineage of Ruth and Boaz. The son they bore was of Christ's heritage and it was a declaration of the family unity supported by the hand of God. Knowing God had favor for a people group before Christ's birth brings a bond of favor to our hearts. The love of the Father to this region of the world was witnessed by two women of faith in the manner of pursuing Christ as well. The length of the study is simplistic so a small group can gather on a weekend retreat or even an evening commute and a regular expression of time can be adhered to.

Written amid a general sea-change in the way that Old Testament narrative texts are read among many of those who read them in academic contexts, this volume attempts to introduce the reader to a fairly broad range of issues which arise in relation to Kings, in the context of the kinds of issues which arise in relation to biblical narrative in general. Provan attempts to show, in relation to the many issues addressed, why different readers read Kings differently. Reflection on these fundamental issues should enable readers to form their own judgments on the matters under discussion, and to move beyond these to other matters which may be of interest to them.Iain Provan retired as the Marshall Sheppard Professor of Biblical Studies at Regent College. He is the author of The Reformation and the Right Reading of Scripture; Convenient Myths: The Axial Age, Dark Green Religion, and the World that Never Was; and Seriously Dangerous Religion: What the Old Testament Really Says and Why It Matters. He is the founder of the Cuckoos Consultancy and lives in the Vancouver area.

Do you think you know about Noah's Flood: where it occurred; when it occurred; whether it was a natural event; a world flood; and what happened after the flood? Then the answers in this book may surprise you! While there are many flood stories from around the world, this book focuses on Noah's Flood as described in the Book of Genesis from The Old Testament.About 14,700 years ago, as the Earth came out of the ice age, eight-mile-high glaciers in eastern Antarctica began melting and calving into the Indian ocean. The resulting mega-tsunamis traveled northward up the Persian Gulf and through the valley formed by the Tigris-Euphrates river system. Noah, an ancient Sumerian, was carried Noah northwest along the Tigris-Euphrates flood plain into southeastern Turkey. He and his descendants eventually settled in and around ¿anl¿urfa (Urfa), which claims to be Abraham's birthplace. It is located in the northwest corner of the present-day Harran Plain in Turkey. There, Noah and his descendants built monolithic temples to their pantheon of gods.Gobekli Tepe, only recently discovered, overlooks Harran Plain and is considered to be a site of religious temples. It has been dated to be over 13,000 years old (the oldest monolithic structure known). It is from this location that agriculture began 12,000 years ago. Perhaps as Noah's three sons and their descendants migrated; Ham (Africa), Seth (Arabian Peninsula), and Japheth (west into Greece and east into Persia and India), they carried with them the knowledge of agriculture.It is amazing how well the scientific data presented in this book fits with Genesis and ancient stories such as the Sumerian Epic of Gilgamesh and the older Babylonian epic of Atra-Hasis.If you think you know Noah's story then you should read this book.

PirkeiDeRabbi Eliezer Chapter of the greatRebbi Eliezer Rebbi Eliezer Ben Hyrcanus¿¿¿¿¿¿Hebrew With English Translation ¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿Rebbi Eliezer ben Hyrcanus....In a new Zohar it is stated that Rebbi Eliezer was a reincarnation of Reuven the firstborn of Yaakov, and for this reason, the decree of ten martyrs who according to the Kabbalah was sentenced to the ten sages for being equal against the ten tribes who threw Yosef into the pit, did not apply to Rebbi Eliezer but only ordered to throw Yosef into the pit, and therefore threw Rebbi Eliezer into the pit but raised him afterwards and did not kill him.In the book of Bnei Yissachar it is stated that since Reuven was the one who always dealt with repentance for his sin that confused his father's performance, it is appropriate to rule like him when it comes to repentance, and because Rebbi Eliezer rules that the witnesses handed over This year - the time of writing, Yom Kippur - the time of signing, and Hoshana Rabba - which is the time of handing over the notes to the emissaries, it should be ruled that the time of repentance exists until Hoshana Rabba, and until then it is possible to repent and change the sentence. He connects these things, to the reason by which Moshe Rabbeinu prayed that Rebbi Eliezer came out of his loins as quoted in the ruling in the name of Rebbi Acha.Years passed during which Rebbi Eliezer was prevented from reaching the Beit Midrash. Sages lost his teachings and the many of his traditions he had. Specially in particular Rebbi Akiva who was his special student. He lost the controversy over Achnai's furnace. He did not compromise with the sages, even though the halacha [the Jewish law] is - singular and plural halacha as plural. But he did not give up his mind, without which there is no point in life, but what are years, even decades, in the face of eternity.¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿, ¿¿¿¿¿ - ¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿, ¿¿ ¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿, ¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿, ¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿ ¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿, ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿ ¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿ ¿¿¿¿, ¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿. ¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿. ¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿ ¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿ ¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿. ¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿ ¿¿

Peace is a gift. One of the most sought-after states of being is peace of mind. People spend a tremendous amount of time and resources searching for the thing that will give them peace in culture and society, which increasingly thrives on disharmony, chaos, and what seems to be unending crisis. But the peace we seek is not found in other people, places, or possessions. The peace we seek is found in Jesus Christ. Our Savior came to bring peace by reconciling us to the Father. He left his peace in us through the presence of the Holy Spirit. He told us how to overcome the world--by seeking peace in him. He Gives You Peace is a devotional of biblical topics on how the peace of God impacts our lives and daily decisions. My prayer is that you will recognize and seek the peace of Jesus Christ as you engage with these devotional studies.Doris Willis A Measure of Grace

This collection of articles is tightly focused on metaphors in the prophetic literature of the Hebrew Bible and their later afterlife in Jewish and Christian texts.The essays deal with a wide range of historical, literary, and methodological issues. First, several contributions employ metaphor theory in analysing the biblical texts, both conceptual frameworks such as blending theory and more traditional methods. Second, metaphors are studied both synchronically, that is, in relation to their current literary contexts, and diachronically, that is, mapping how they have been employed and re-interpreted in different ways and different texts throughout time. Third, other contributions read metaphors in light of theoretical frameworks such as feminist criticism, post-colonial theories, or power discourses that uncover aspects of significance often missed in historical studies. Finally, yet other contributions deal with the issue of how to translate metaphors in contemporary contexts.

Does God's call on your life seem impossible?Have you thought . . .I'm not the one for the job. I don't know how to do what You're asking me to do. It's simply too much.I'm exhausted by my responsibilities. You aren't alone. When God called Moses to lead His people out of slavery, Moses begged God to choose someone else. Who could blame him? The job God had given Moses was massive! It seemed impossible. But God never expected Moses to do it alone. Called by God to an extraordinary, life-changing journey, Moses led a fledgling nation of doubtful and often discontented people to the Promised Land. Along the way, he faced incredible challenges and disappointments. Moses also discovered a truth that remains today: God offers incomparable love and mercy to those who follow Him. This study of Moses's life focuses on the relationship he had with God, a relationship he did not ask for or expect. Moses learned to trust God's goodness and faithfulness, and he experienced the kind of closeness that God desires to have with you today.Moses: Called by God will encourage you to trust God more fully as you discover and live out your calling. ¿¿¿"Moses's story offers a gentle reminder to be listening for those burning bush moments when God can clarify our purpose and calling. This book will clear the smoke to allow your own face-to-face encounters with God."-Dan Miller, New York Times bestselling author of 48 Days to the Work You Love, and host of the 48 Days Podcast"Marilynn Hood's Moses: Called by God is an inspiring journey into the heart of the very purpose of our lives: knowing God and making Him known.

She unpacks Moses's life story-his doubts, fears, and the deep faith he developed as a result of his encounter with God. . . . If you're wondering if God has called you or what His purpose is for you, this reflective study will help you find the answers." -Bill Rieser, pastor, author, evangelist, and founder of Encounter Ministries"Marilynn's research and personal insights will enrich your appreciation of Moses and how his life relates to our walk with God. Bible students and teachers alike will find lots of helpful information and inspiration in Moses: Called by God." -Debbie W. Wilson, author of Little Strength, Big God

The Old Testament, or Hebrew Scriptures, has been a source of spiritual inspiration for hundreds of millions of believers throughout the ages. Center stage in the Old Testament is a body of literature by and about the prophets-messengers of God who tried to keep God's people on the right path. You know their names-Elijah, Isaiah, Jeremiah, Daniel, Ezekiel-or do you? Are you acquainted with Deborah, Huldah, Miriam and Noadiah? For far too long, the women prophets have never been accorded the respect and attention they deserve, but they delivered God's messages with the same passion, commitment and urgency as the men. This book is written to acknowledge and celebrate them-and put the women-the prophetesses-on the pedestal they deserve to occupy.

In diesem Band sind Beiträge zur Pentateuchforschung aus den vergangenen rund 20 Jahren gesammelt. Die Anordnung folgt nicht chronologischen, sondern sachlichen Gesichtspunkten: Die erste Sektion (Das literarische Problem des Pentateuchs) widmet sich der Methodik, Geschichte und aktuellen Diskussion der Pentateuchforschung. Die zweite Sektion (Urgeschichte und Erzväter) enthält Beiträge zur Komposition der Ur- und Vätergeschichte in der Genesis, die dritte Sektion (Das Gesetz zwischen Exodus und Landnahme) solche zur Komposition der Exodus-Landnahmegeschichte in Exodus-Josua. Die vierte Sektion (Tora und Vordere Propheten) überschreitet den Horizont des Pentateuchs in Richtung Hexateuch und Enneateuch und behandelt das Verhältnis des Pentateuchs zum sogenannten Deuteronomistischen Geschichtswerk. Die fünfte Sektion (Die Rezeption der Tora in den Texten vom Toten Meer) schließlich befasst sich mit Beispielen der antiken Rezeptionsgeschichte, an denen deutlich wird, dass sich der dynamische Prozess der Auslegung, der in der Literargeschichte des Pentateuchs zu greifen ist, nicht nur in den biblischen Handschriften, sondern auch in anderen Texten vom Toten Meer fortsetzt

In 1906 Martin Schreiner, who had been diagnosed with mental illness four years previously, wrote from the Sanatorium Berolinum in Berlin-Lankwitz to the librarian of the "Lehranstalt für die Wissenschaft des Judentums" in Berlin, asking to send him some books, in the hope of being released soon. This letter and some short letters dating from 1920 and 1922 constitute Schreiner's last written testimonies. His mental illness painfully and suddenly ended the short but productive career of a versatile scholar who was one of the most important exponents of the "Wissenschaft des Judentums" and who simultaneously engaged in the study of Islam. Sabine Schmidtke reconstructs Schreiner's scholarly biography from his student days to his active period in Berlin, where the manuscript holdings of the Royal Library opened up entirely new perspectives for him. The author focuses on his pioneering scholarship particularly in the field of Islamic intellectual history, where his main contributions dealt with the Mütazila, Ibn Taymiyya and his circle, the mystical tradition of Ibn ¿Arabi, and interreligious polemics.
