Davis Sermon Notes www.twojourneys.org Please use in accordance with the copyright policy found at twojourneys.org Sacrificial Giving and an Eternal Temple 1 Chronicles 29:10-19 This is the second of three sermons on stewardship, a call from the Elders to the people of First Baptist Church to consider giving sacrificially to our “More Than a Building Campaign” This morning, I want to bring you back to a key moment in time, a key moment in redemptive history as King David challenged the people of his generation to give to the building of the Temple in Jerusalem I. David’s Context… and Ours A. David’s Context King David, the greatest of Israel’s kings, had it in his heart to build a permanent building where all the people could assemble and worship the living God. Up till that point, the Lord had been dwelling in a tabernacle, a moveable tent, where the Ark of the Covenant was kept. The centerpiece of Jewish worship in those days was the animal sacrificial system, and the Ark of the Covenant was a sacred golden box in which were kept the tablets of stone God gave Moses, the actual Ten Commandments God gave him on Mount Sinai. By David’s time, the tabernacle was about 500 years old. Now that David had conquered the city of Jerusalem and set up his palace there, it seemed time for God no longer to dwell in a moveable tent but in a more permanent house, representative of the fact that God’s people had permanently settled down in the Promised Land.

  • Revisiting the Saul Narrative in Chronicles: Interacting with the Persian Imperial Context?
    Jonker: Saul Narrative in Chronicles OTE 23/2 (2010), 283-305 283 Revisiting the Saul Narrative in Chronicles: Interacting with the Persian Imperial Context? LOUIS C. JONKER (U NIVERSITY OF STELLENBOSCH ) ABSTRACT It is well-known among biblical scholars and other Bible readers that the Chronicler’s presentation of King Saul of Israel differs sig- nificantly from the version in 1 Samuel. Many studies have been conducted on this and commentators normally dedicate extensive space to the peculiarity. In line with Knoppers’s suggestions of how to approach this peculiarity, this article will investigate whether it could benefit our discussion of the Chronicler’s portrayal of King Saul if the perspective of identity formation forms our interpretative key. A INTRODUCTION It is well-known that the Chronicler’s presentation of King Saul of Israel differs significantly from the version in 1 Samuel. Many studies have been conducted on this issue and commentators normally dedicate extensive space to this pecu- liarity. 1 Although a critical synoptic comparison of the texts—not only of those 1 The following studies, particularly focused on the peculiarities of the Chronicler’s representation of Saul compared to that in 1 Samuel, have appeared since 2000: Yairah Amit, “The Saul Polemic in the Persian Period,” in Judah and the Judeans in the Persian Period (eds. Oded Lipschits and Manfred Oeming, Winona Lake, Ind.: Eisenbrauns, 2006), 647–661; “The Delicate Balance in the Image of Saul and Its Place in the Deuteronomistic History,” in Saul in Story and Tradition (eds.

  • The Aaronic Priesthood Exodus 28:1
    THE AARONIC PRIESTHOOD EXODUS 28:1 Man has an inherent knowledge of God (Rom. 1:18-32) and sinfulness (Rom. 2:14-15) and it seems every religion has some sort of priesthood to repre- sent man to God. In the case of Judaism, it was the Aaronic Priesthood. Romans 1:18–19 18For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men who suppress the truth in unrighteous- ness, 19because that which is known about God is evident within them; for God made it evident to them. Romans 2:14–15 14For when Gentiles who do not have the Law do instinctively the things of the Law, these, not having the Law, are a law to themselves, 15in that they show the work of the Law written in their hearts, their conscience bear- ing witness and their thoughts alternately accusing or else defending them, In Exodus 27:21, we noted the first hint of the appointment of Aaron and his sons to be the priests of Yahweh. In Exodus 28:1, the appointment was offi- cially proclaimed. Exodus 28:1 1“Then bring near to yourself Aaron your brother, and his sons with ,to Me—Aaron [כָּהַן] him, from among the sons of Israel, to minister as priest Nadab and Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar, Aaron’s sons. and it refers to the כֹּהֵן is not the word for priest; that word is כָּהַן The word means to ,כָּהַן ,position of priest as mediator between God and man. This word act or to serve as a priest, hence, the NASB translates it to “minister as priest.” One is the noun and one is the verb.

  • DAILY BIBLE STUDY SHEET Daily Meditation on the Word of God Is Imperative to Our Growth
    DAILY BIBLE STUDY SHEET Daily meditation on the Word of God is imperative to our growth. As the people of God, we should commit to reading Scripture every day. There are questions to help prompt your meditation. If you do not have a Bible, please contact the church office and one will be given to you. To locate the passages, use the Table of Contents to find the page number. The number before the colon will tell you the chapter to find. The numbers after the colon are the superscript numbers in your Bible indicating the verses to read. Monday, Nov 23rd – 2 Samuel 21:1-14 This week we start off and there are no rebellions facing David. However, there are still problems. What problem will we start off with this week (vs. 1)? What has God revealed to David regarding the reason for the famine? If you recall back in Joshua, the Gibeonites tricked Israel into making an oath not to hurt the Gibeonites, pretending they had traveled a long way when they were really neighbors. Saul broke that oath out of a zeal for Israel. But the oath was broken nonetheless. Now God wants this wrong addressed. How does David go about reparations and what do the Gibeonites ask for (vss. 2-6a)? How does David respond to their request (vs. 6b)? Whom does David select and whom does David protect (vs.7-9)? What happens after this (vs. 10)? How does David respond to this reaction (vss. 11-14)? While a very gruesome story, there was closure that came from it on several fronts.

    1 CHRONICLES - A TEACHER’S GUIDE THE CENTRAL QUESTION: What does this book/story say to us about God? This question may be broken down further as follows: a. Why did God do it/allow it? b. Why did He record it for our study? 1. Who do you think wrote 1 & 2 Chronicles? (1 Chronicles 29:29; Compare 2 Chronicles 32:32; 33:18-20) Do these books have a significantly different perspective than 1 & 2 Samuel and 1 & 2 Kings? Do 1 & 2 Chronicles look like a “biased” report? Why should there be so much repetition? How do you explain the differences? Is there any value in these small differences? What about the Gospels? How did Luke get the information for writing his book? (Luke 1:1-4) Does God “inspire” people to “compile” books to put in Scripture? “The Talmud (Baba Bathra 15a) attributes Chronicles to Ezra.” (New Bible Dictionary) “Originally entitled ‘the words [or events] of the days’ (divre hayyamim, Hebrews), meaning ‘journals’ (1 Chronicles 27:24), and compiled as a single book, 1 and 2 Chronicles were separated by the translators of the Septuagint c. 180 B.C. [Probably because they were too long to fit on one scroll] and named “things omitted” (paraleipomena, Gk.), to indicate that they contain things omitted from the Books of Samuel and Kings. Although the author and date are not stated, the Talmudic tradition that the Chronicles were penned by Ezra may be correct. Nevertheless, it is customary to speak of the author simply as “the chronicler.” Written from a priestly perspective, the main emphasis centers on the temple in Jerusalem, the Levitical priesthood, and the theocratic lineage of David.

  • Praise“ Is Found Well Over 200 Times in the Old and the New Testament
    All Creation Testifies of God’s Greatness In the beginning God… Genesis 1:1 Last week we learned that the word “praise“ is found well over 200 times in the Old and the New Testament. Songs of praise are prevalent throughout the Book of Psalms and songwriters of yesteryears and today provide lyrics through which worshippers have lifted voices to honor and extol the love and wonders of Almighty God. Whether the praise emanates from a psalm, a traditional hymn, or contemporary Gospel, the message of praise is to the only wise God who loves, protects, and provides for all His creation. Yet praise extends beyond songs or hymns. When used as a noun, praise expresses a favorable judgment of or glorifies (a god or saint) especially by the acknowledgment of perfections (The 2019 online 2019 Merriam-Webster dictionary). As a noun the same dictionary defines praise as an expression of approval, commendation, worship, value, or merit. All Nature Praises God At this very moment and into eternity, God is praised! Throughout all creation, nature displays the wonders of God and each element of creation praises God in its unique way. In heaven, God is continually worshiped as angels and seraphim in heaven never stop glorifying Him (Psalm 103:20; Isaiah 2—3; Luke 2:14; 15:10; Hebrews 1:6). Throughout this lesson, the words nature and creation will be used interchangeably. Also, creation includes more than just nature (such as land, sea, plants, animals, and weather). The word creation also includes spiritual forces which are invisible to us, while nature speaks of what we can see.
