Maps of First Century Palestine Fellowship Home Page The Map of First Century Palestine Index to Geographic Place Names Urantia Papers' First Century Palestine The grid upon which the map is constructed is the standard MR grid system used in many archaeological reports and other descriptive literature of the region, such as the Anchor Bible Dictionary. In this grid system, the first three digits designate a position on the north-south axis of the map while the second three digits designate a position on the east-west axis, the intersection of the two lines being the location of the index item on the map. On the map itself, the north-south coordinates read vertically while the east-west coordinates read horizontally. The map shows the location of all the villages and towns mentioned in Part IV of The Urantia Book. The index lists these as well as other towns and villages which were known to have existed at the time of Jesus, but which do not appear on the map. Look up the name of any first-century place location.

Trade and Commerce At Sepphoris, Israel Sarah VanSickle 1998 Honors Research Dr. Dennis E. Groh, Advisor I Introduction Trade patterns in the Near East are the subject of conflicting interpretations. Researchers debate whether Galilean cities utilized trade routes along the Sea of Galilee and the Mediterranean or were self-sufficient, with little access to trade. An analysis of material culture found at specific sites can most efficiently determine the extent of trade in the region. If commerce is extensive, a significant assemblage of foreign goods will be found; an overwhelming majority of provincial artifacts will suggest minimal trade.

He went to Shechem with his brothers when the inhabitants became discontented with Abimelech, and so engaged their confidence that they placed him at their head. He does not seem to have been a native of Shechem nor specially interested in the revolution, but rather one of a class of condottieri, who at such a period of anarchy would be willing to sell their services to the highest bidder (compare Josephus, Ant.

EMRE CEREN 2501150154 TEZ DANIŞMANI PROF. DR. HAMDİ ŞAHİN İSTANBUL-2019 ÖZ PROVINCIA IUDAEA’DA YAHUDİ İSYANLARI Y. EMRE CEREN Roma’nın Gnaeus Pompeius Magnus komutasında Doğu Akdeniz’e girmesiyle birlikte, bölgedeki egemen kültürler daha önce aşina olmadıkları Roma hükmü altında varlıklarını sürdürmeye çalışmışlardır. İlkin bölgede Roma ile sıkı bir uzlaşım varken, ilerleyen aşamada sınıfsal, kültürel ve siyasal çıkmazlar veya çıkarlar karşılaştığı anda isyanlara dönüşmüştür. Bu isyanlar içerisinde kendi sınıfsal çıkarından ötürü Roma ile birlikte hareket eden Yahudilerle birlikte, Yunan-Yahudi çatışması da ortaya çıkmıştır. Kültürel anlamda bölgede egemen konumda olan Yahudilerin isyan liderleri Tanah ve ona bağlı kültlerle bir arada tutup motive etmeye çalışmışlardır. Bu durum zaman zaman kendini mesih ilan etmeye ve zaman zaman da tanrının buyruğu adı altında mağlubiyeti ve sürgünü kabul etmeye dönüşmüştür. İsyanların her biri bir önceki isyanı temel alan ve oradaki hataları görerek gelişen bir ilerlemeye sahiptir. İsyanlar, hem Roma’ya hem de isyan eden Yahudi halkına ciddi tahribatlar yaratmıştır. Yaratılan tahribat neticesinde bulunduğu çağı ve çağlar ötesini ciddi anlamda etkileyecek demografik değişimler ve kültürel aktarımlar söz konusu olmuştur.

    HIST 332 CP 15.4 Flavius Josephus, The Jewish War, 3.1-7 Roman Army Life and the Siege of Jotapata CHAPTER 1. VESPASIAN IS SENT INTO SYRIA BY NERO IN ORDER TO MAKE WAR WITH THE JEWS. 1. WHEN Nero was informed of the Romans' ill success in Judea, a concealed consternation and terror, as is usual in such cases, fell upon him; although he openly looked very big, and was very angry, and said that what had happened was rather owing to the negligence of the commander, than to any valor of the enemy: and as he thought it fit for him, who bare the burden of the whole empire, to despise such misfortunes, he now pretended so to do, and to have a soul superior to all such sad accidents whatsoever. Yet did the disturbance that was in his soul plainly appear by the solicitude he was in [how to recover his affairs again]. 2. And as he was deliberating to whom he should commit the care of the East, now it was in so great a commotion, and who might be best able to punish the Jews for their rebellion, and might prevent the same distemper from seizing upon the neighboring nations also, - he found no one but Vespasian equal to the task, and able to undergo the great burden of so mighty a war, seeing he was growing an old man already in the camp, and from his youth had been exercised in warlike exploits: he was also a man that had long ago pacified the west, and made it subject to the Romans, when it had been put into disorder by the Germans; he had also recovered to them Britain by his arms, which had been little known before whereby he procured to his father Claudius to have a triumph bestowed on him without any sweat or labor of his own.

    THE AGES DIGITAL LIBRARY REFERENCE INTERNATIONAL STANDARD BIBLE ENCYCLOPEDIA VOL. 4 F- GYMNASIUM Books For The Ages AGES Software • Albany, OR USA Version 1.0 © 1997 2 F FABLE <fa’-b’-l> ([mu~qov, muthos]): (1) Primitive man conceives of the objects around him as possessing his own characteristics. Consequently in his stories, beasts, trees, rocks, etc., think, talk and act exactly as if they were human beings. Of course, but little advance in knowledge was needed to put an end to this mode of thought, but the form of story-telling developed by it persisted and is found in the folk-tales of all nations. More particularly, the archaic form of story was used for the purpose of moral instruction, and when so used is termed the fable. Modern definitions distinguish it from the parable (a) by its use of characters of lower intelligence than man (although reasoning and speaking like men), and (b) by its lesson for this life only. But, while these distinctions serve some practical purpose in distinguishing (say) the fables of Aesop from the parables of Christ, they are of little value to the student of folk-lore. For fable, parable, allegory, etc., are all evolutions from a common stock, and they tend to blend with each other. See ALLEGORY; PARABLE. (2) The Semitic mind is peculiarly prone to allegorical expression, and a modern Arabian storyteller will invent a fable or a parable as readily as he will talk. And we may be entirely certain that the very scanty appearance of fables in the Old Testament is due only to the character of its material and not at all to an absence of fables from the mouths of the Jews of old.

    Map 69 Damascus-Caesarea Compiled by J.P. Brown and E.M. Meyers (Israel), 1994 Introduction Jordan, Lebanon, Syria This is an area of much diversity. Coastal Sidon was well known to Homer; inland Gabitha, by contrast, first appears as the site of a great Moslem victory in A.D. 636. The snows of Hermon Mons overlook the parched deserts of Syria. The rift valley of Lebanon between its twin mountain ranges sinks to the R. Jordan far below sea level. The limestone of Libanus Mons has fossil fish which Eusebius took to be records of Noah’s flood; the great basalt tract of Trachon(itis) (modern Lejja) and its neighbors was deposited by lava flows from extinct volcanoes of Auranitis (modern Jebel Druze). The map marks some changes from current topography. Tyrus was an island until Alexander’s time; he joined it to the mainland by a mole, later silted up to form the modern peninsula. The southern valley (Koile Syria) of Lebanon was a swamp of uncertain extent (Kalamon Limne), where Theophrastus found aromatic rush and papyrus; its malarial waters were not drained until the fourteenth century A.D. The northwest of the map shows pockets of the Lebanese forest as delimited by Hadrian; see the text for Map 68. Knowledge of Syria came gradually to the Greek and Roman world. Herodotus records admirals of the Phoenician cities. Theophrastus had perhaps visited Damascus. Alexander made the coast well known. The campaign of Antiochus III in 219 B.C., as narrated by Polybius, brings detailed information about the Valley of Lebanon and Peraea; that of Judas in 163 B.C.

  • Flavius Josephus a Zsidó Háború
    Flavius Josephus A zsidó háború (V. kiadás) Függelékül: Flavius Josephus önéletrajza Görögből fordította: Révay József az irodalomtudomány doktora (A digitalizálás a Gondolat kiadó 1964 évi azonos című kiadványa alapján készült.) Egy nép történelmi katasztrófájának vérszagú levegője csapja meg A zsidó háború olvasóit. Szerzője és főhőse a zsidók szabadság-harcának kiváló vezetője volt, de átállt a rómaiakhoz, mert úgy vélte, így használhat többet népének. Népét akarta szolgálni e könyvvel is, de a maga védelmére is szánta - egyaránt meg akarta nyerni a hellén-római Kelet rokonszenvét szerencsétlen népe, s népe bocsánatát a maga számára. A modern olvasó immár tárgyilagos bírája A zsidó háború eseményeinek, mégsem tudja megindultság nélkül olvasni a népi és egyéni tragédiák e véres egymásbafonódását. S ha néha viszolygunk is Flavius Josephus cselekedetein, érezzük, mennyi kín és benső harc, szenvedély és szenvedés rejlik mögöttük, s talán feloldozzuk érettük a „római zsidót". A mű szereplői Caesarok, királyok, főpapok, hadvezérek, de igazi főszereplője az elnyomott, leigázott, szabadságra sóvárgó nép, amelyet urai elárultak, szerencsétlenségbe döntöttek és amely a hatalmasok önző érdekeiért hullatta vérét. A zsidó háború témájának érdekességénél, drámai előadásmódjánál és történelmi forrásértékénél fogva mindmáig lebilincselő olvasmány. 2009 Bevezetés 1 A palatinusi római császári palotának i. sz. 75-ben érdekes vendége volt: egy jeruzsálemi zsidó teológus és történetíró, Flavius Josephus, Vespasianus császár és Titus herceg barátja. Ez a férfiú megtalálta a kiegyezés útját zsidóság és rómaiság közt: meggyőződéses zsidó tudott maradni, holott minden idegszálát át - meg átitatta a hellenisztikus műveltség. 37 éves volt ebben az időben, s máris hősi és regényes élet volt mögötte. Volt már tudós professzor, hadvezér, várparancsnok, hadifogoly, s miután cselekvő részese volt népe hősi harcának és tragédiájának, most a császári palota fényében a zsidóság és rómaiság ellentéteinek kiegyenlítésén munkálkodott, páratlan politikai érzékkel és tehetséggel.
