  • A Midrashic Reading of the Akedah
    The Fruits of Dissent and the Operationalization of Faith: A Midrashic Reading of the Akedah Elliot Lyons 1 Introduction The Bible is a text fraught with ‘gaps’ – narrative silences, inconsistencies, and places where questions arise – and as such yearns to be interpreted. Genesis 22, Abraham’s intended sacrifice of Isaac, the Akedah (‘binding’) as it is known in Judaism, is nothing but exemplary in this regard. The biblical text main- tains two ‘gaps’1 where Midrash – biblical interpretation in the Jewish tradi- tion which juxtaposes biblical passages – places Satan into the narrative in a manner that emphasizes the fortification of faith through interrogating its very premises.2 The more questions put to Abraham, in other words, the deeper his faith becomes. Accordingly, this chapter will begin by locating the two main ‘gaps’ in the text: Genesis 22:1, where Abraham was tested “after these things/ words”, and the narratological gap between verses three and four. In presenting the textual gaps, I will use traditional historical-critical exegesis in order to juxtapose the radical potential and imagination present in Midrash to a method of interpre- tation that either entirely fails to answer the gaps, or only glimpses the tip of the theological iceberg that is the Akedah. Next I will discuss three Midrashim, from Genesis Rabbah (GR), from Midrash Tanhumah Yelammedenu (TY), and from the Babylonian Talmud (BT), which reconsider the gaps from the first half of the chapter in light of Satan questioning the ethics of a sacrifice-forged faith, and God pressing the grim task of filicide. 1 There is another ‘gap’ between the end of chapter 22 and the beginning of chapter 23, where Abraham returns and finds Sarah dead.

  • Jonah for Yom Kippur Afternoon Who Am I? “And the Word Of
    Jonah for Yom Kippur Afternoon Who Am I? “And the word of the Eternal came to Yonah ben Amittai.” (Jonah 1:1) 1. Then he sent out a dove to see if the water had receded from the surface of the ground. But the dove could find nowhere to perch because there was water over all the surface of the earth; so it returned to Noah in the ark. He reached out his hand and took the dove and brought it back to himself in the ark. He waited seven more days and again sent out the dove from the ark. When the dove returned to him in the evening, there in its beak was a freshly plucked olive leaf! Then Noah knew that the water had receded from the earth. (Genesis 8:8-11) 2. That the Eternal spoke through his servant Jonah ben Amitai from Gat-Hepher (I Kings 14:25) 3. Abarbanel And he said to her, “Give me your son.” And he took him from her arms and carried him up into the upper chamber where he lodged, and laid him on his own bed. And he cried to the Eternal, “O Eternal my God, have you brought calamity even upon the widow with whom I sojourn, by killing her son?” Then he stretched himself upon the child three times and cried to the Eternal, “O Eternal my God, let this child's life come into him again.” And the Eternal listened to the voice of Elijah. And the life of the child came into him again, and he revived.

  • The Unforgiven Ones
    The Unforgiven Ones 1 God These are the generations of Esau (that is, Edom). 2 Esau took his wives from the Canaanites: Adah the daughter of Elon the Hittite, Oholibamah the daughter of Anah the daughter of Zibeon the Hivite, 3 and Basemath, Ishmael's daughter, the sister of Nebaioth. 4 And Adah bore to Esau, Eliphaz; Basemath bore Reuel; 5 and Oholibamah bore Jeush, Jalam, and Korah. These are the sons of Esau who were born to him in the land of Canaan. 6 Then Esau took his wives, his sons, his daughters, and all the members of his household, his livestock, all his beasts, and all his property that he had acquired in the land of Canaan. He went into a land away from his brother Jacob. 7 For their possessions were too great for them to dwell together. The land of their sojournings could not support them because of their livestock. 8 So Esau settled in the hill country of Seir. (Esau is Edom.) 9 These are the generations of Esau the father of the Edomites in the hill country of Seir. 10 These are the names of Esau's sons: Eliphaz the son of Adah the wife of Esau, Reuel the son of Basemath the wife of Esau. 11 The sons of Eliphaz were Teman, Omar, Zepho, Gatam, and Kenaz. 12 (Timna was a concubine of Eliphaz, Esau's son; she bore Amalek to Eliphaz.) These are the sons of Adah, Esau's wife. 13 These are the sons of Reuel: Nahath, Zerah, Shammah, and Mizzah.

  • In/Voluntary Surrogacy in Genesis
    The Asbury Journal 76/1: 9-24 © 2021 Asbury Theological Seminary DOI: 10.7252/Journal.01.2021S.02 David J. Zucker In/Voluntary Surrogacy in Genesis Abstract: This article re-examines the issue of surrogacy in Genesis. It proposes some different factors, and questions some previous conclusions raised by other scholars, and especially examining feminist scholars approaches to the issue in the cases of Hagar/Abraham (and Sarah), and Bilhah-Zilpah/Jacob (and Rachel, Leah). The author examines these cases in the light of scriptural evidence and the original Hebrew to seek to understand the nature of the relationship of these complex characters. How much say did the surrogates have with regard to the relationship? What was their status within the situation of the text, and how should we reflect on their situation from our modern context? Keywords: Bilhah, Zilpah, Jacob, Hagar, Abraham, Surrogacy David J. Zucker David J. Zucker is a retired rabbi and independent scholar. He is a co-author, along with Moshe Reiss, of The Matriarchs of Genesis: Seven Women, Five Views (Wipf and Stock, 2015).

  • A Private Cloud Architecture Designed for High Usability
    THUNDER: A PRIVATE CLOUD ARCHITECTURE DESIGNED FOR HIGH USABILITY by GABRIEL JACOB LOEWEN SUSAN VRBSKY, COMMITTEE CHAIR MONICA ANDERSON JOHN LUSTH ASHRAF SAAD JINGYUAN ZHANG A DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Computer Science in the Graduate School of The University of Alabama TUSCALOOSA, ALABAMA 2015 Copyright Gabriel Jacob Loewen 2015 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT Cloud computing is a technological strategy for saving time, money, and resources within an organization. Underfunded and understaffed organizations benefit the most from a cloud archi- tecture because it can help to alleviate a cost burden allowing funds to be used more effectively. Therefore, we believe that non-profit organizations, such as schools, libraries, non-profit medical facilities, and others have the most to gain from cloud computing. Cloud computing has played a major role in shaping large for-profit businesses like Google, Amazon, and Microsoft. Research has suggested that cultural barriers make it difficult for professionals in non-profits to adopt cloud computing technology. One key challenge faced by organizations for which a cloud architecture would be benefi- cial is the deployment and management process. In order for private cloud computing to become a viable solution for struggling organizations, much work needs to be done to simplify and im- prove the deployment process. We describe a new cloud architecture called THUNDER, which is a recursive backronym meaning “THUNDER Helps Underfunded Nonprofits Distribute Electronic Resources.” THUNDER introduces strategies which are meant to help struggling organizations to de- crease costs. Virtual machine load balancing attempts to distribute the load across multiple nodes in order to maximize potential performance of virtual machines.

C-MATS Question: What were the final words of Moses? These final words of Moses are a combination of blessing and prophecy, in which he blesses each tribe according to its national responsibilities and individual greatness. Moses' blessings were a continuation of Jacob's, as if to say that the tribes were blessed at the beginning of their national existence and again as they were about to begin life in Israel. Moses directed his blessings to each of the tribes individually, since the welfare of each tribe depended upon that of the others, and the collective welfare of the nation depended upon the success of them all (Pesikta). came from Sinai and from Seir He dawned on them; He shined forth from יהוה ,And he (Moses) said 2 Mount Paran and He came with ten thousands of holy ones: from His right hand went a fiery commandment for them. came to Israel from Seir and יהוה ?present the Torah to the Israelites יהוה Question: How did had offered the Torah to the descendants of יהוה Paran, which, as the Midrash records, recalls that Esau, who dwelled in Seir, and to the Ishmaelites, who dwelled in Paran, both of whom refused to accept the Torah because it prohibited their predilections to kill and steal.
