Samuel was born as a result of God’s answering Hannah’s prayer and touching her barren womb (1 Sam. 1:2, 19, 20). b. He was promised to the Lord even before his birth (1 Sam. 1:10-12). c. He became the second of two famous Old Testament Nazarites. Samson was the first (Judg. 13:7, 13-14; 1 Sam. 1:11). 2.

  • God, Abraham, and the Abuse of Isaac
    Word & World Volume XV, Number 1 Winter 1995 God, Abraham, and the Abuse of Isaac TERENCE E. FRETHEIM Luther Seminary St. Paul, Minnesota HIS IS A CLASSIC TEXT.1 IT HAS CAPTIVATED THE IMAGINATION OF MANY INTER- Tpreters, drawn both by its literary artistry and its religious depths. This is also a problem text. It has occasioned deep concern in this time when the abuse of chil- dren has screamed its way into the modern consciousness: Is God (and by virtue of his response, Abraham) guilty of child abuse in this text? There is no escaping the question, and it raises the issue as to the continuing value of this text. I. MODERN READINGS Psychoanalyst Alice Miller claims2 that Genesis 22 may have contributed to an atmosphere that makes it possible to justify the abuse of children. She grounds her reflections on some thirty artistic representations of this story. In two of Rem- brandt’s paintings, for example, Abraham faces the heavens rather than Isaac, as if in blind obedience to God and oblivious to what he is about to do to his son. His hands cover Isaac’s face, preventing him from seeing or crying out. Not only is Isaac silenced, she says (not actually true), one sees only his torso; his personal fea- tures are obscured. Isaac “has been turned into an object. He has been dehuman- ized by being made a sacrifice; he no longer has a right to ask questions and will 1This article is a reworking of sections of my commentary on Genesis 22 in the New Interpreters Bi- ble (Nashville: Abingdon, 1994) 494-501.

  • Mistranslations of the Prophets' Names in the Holy Quran: a Critical Evaluation of Two Translations
    Journal of Education and Practice www.iiste.org ISSN 2222-1735 (Paper) ISSN 2222-288X (Online) Vol.8, No.2, 2017 Mistranslations of the Prophets' Names in the Holy Quran: A Critical Evaluation of Two Translations Izzeddin M. I. Issa Dept. of English & Translation, Jadara University, PO box 733, Irbid, Jordan Abstract This study is devoted to discuss the renditions of the prophets' names in the Holy Quran due to the authority of the religious text where they reappear, the significance of the figures who carry them, the fact that they exist in many languages, and the fact that the Holy Quran addresses all mankind. The data are drawn from two translations of the Holy Quran by Ali (1964), and Al-Hilali and Khan (1993). It examines the renditions of the twenty five prophets' names with reference to translation strategies in this respect, showing that Ali confused the conveyance of six names whereas Al-Hilali and Khan confused the conveyance of four names. Discussion has been raised thereupon to present the correct rendition according to English dictionaries and encyclopedias in addition to versions of the Bible which add a historical perspective to the study. Keywords: Mistranslation, Prophets, Religious, Al-Hilali, Khan. 1. Introduction In Prophets’ names comprise a significant part of people's names which in turn constitutes a main subdivision of proper nouns which include in addition to people's names the names of countries, places, months, days, holidays etc. In terms of translation, many translators opt for transliterating proper names thinking that transliteration is a straightforward process depending on an idea deeply rooted in many people's minds that proper nouns are never translated or that the translation of proper names is as Vermes (2003:17) states "a simple automatic process of transference from one language to another." However, in the real world the issue is different viz.

JBL 130, no. 3 (2011): 417–430 Aaron and the Golden Calf in the Rhetoric of the Pentateuch james w. watts [email protected] Syracuse University, Syracuse, NY 13244-1170 In the Pentateuch, the contrast between legal or instructional material, on the one hand, and stories, on the other, is nowhere more stark than in the relationship between the story of the golden calf (Exodus 32–34) and the instructions and nar- ratives (Exodus 25–31; 35–40) that surround it. The story tells of ritual failure with disastrous consequences, while the ritual instructions and narratives around it recount fulfilling those divine instructions to the letter. The contrast becomes most excruciating in each section’s characterization of the high priest: the golden calf story seems to vilify Aaron by placing him at the center of the idolatrous event, while the ritual texts celebrate Aaron and his sons as divinely consecrated priests.

They said: 'Will You place therein those who will make mischief therein and shed blood, while we glorify You with praises and thanks (exalted be You above all that they associate with You as partners) and sanctify You.' Allah said: 'I know that which you do not know.' Allah taught Adam all the names of everything, then He showed them to the angels and said: "Tell Me the names of these if you are truthful." They (angels) said: "Glory be to You, we have no knowledge except what You have taught us.

    Die Spinne (THE SPIDER) Written by Sabrina Almeida Lit Entertainment Group 310.988.7700 Kendrick Tan | Carrie Isgett ii. "Death is not the greatest loss in life. The greatest loss is what dies within us while we live." - Norman Cousins Aided by underground organizations, thousands of Nazi war criminals fled Germany after World War II. Although this is a work of fiction, it's creation was made possible through the release of recently declassified documents. 1. TEASER INT. PUBLIC RESTROOM - DAY CHYRON: 1950, Genoa, Italy. ELIJAH HOLZMAN (Polish Israeli, 30) walks to the last stall. There’s a razor sharp focus in his every move. He pulls out a loose brick from the wall. Grabs a scrap of paper from the DEAD DROP. Reads it. Flushes it. EXT. PUBLIC RESTROOM - CONTINUOUS He walks briskly to a waiting car. Gets in. DAVID YADIN (Israeli, 43, a man you wouldn't look at twice) sits behind the wheel. The car takes off. INT. CAR - CONTINUOUS In Hebrew: ELIJAH Isaac confirmed it. It’s Eichmann. David speeds up. Cuts through traffic. Barely avoids several pedestrians. Pulls up to a building. Elijah hops out of the car before it comes to a stop. INT. BUILDING STAIRWELL - MOMENTS LATER Sprints up the stairs, taking the steps two at a time. With a well placed kick, he bursts into-- INT. APARTMENT - CONTINUOUS --a barren apartment. ISAAC (Italian Jew, 30s) lies facedown in a pool of BLOOD. Elijah flips the corpse. A SWASTIKA is carved into Isaac’s chest.

  • ISAAC and SAMSON: SONS of the PROMISES Dr. John Roskoski, Phd
    The American Journal of Biblical Theology Volume 17(17), April 24, 2016 ISAAC AND SAMSON: SONS OF THE PROMISES Dr. John Roskoski, PhD St. Peter’s University, Middlesex County College INTRODUCTION Among the dramatic interventions of the God of Israel stands a literary tradition that occurs rarely, but spans the Testaments; the accounts of the “sons of promise”. In its full form, it occurs only four times; in the accounts of Isaac (Genesis 18:1-15, 21:1-21), Samson (Judges 13), John the Baptist (Luke 1: 5-24, 57-80), Jesus (Luke 1: 26-38, 2: 1-19). With the advent of Christianity, the images of the Baptist and Jesus preparing for and establishing the Kingdom of God became the focus of scholarship regarding this literary tradition and, consequently, Isaac and Samson were relegated to foundational types. However, our task herein will be to follow that which Luke, with his Gospel presentations, implies; to identify the importance of the accounts of Isaac and Samson in their own literary context. What was the original historical and theological significance of the accounts of Isaac and Samson, apart from the Christian understanding which casts them in the light of Jesus? In other words, what is the intrinsic importance of the birth accounts of Isaac and Samson that prompted Luke use this literary tradition to describe the birth of John and Jesus? We propose that the key to understanding these accounts, particularly those of Isaac and Samson, lies in the rarity and context of their occurrences. Overall, these men and their birth accounts occur at critical junctures of the unfolding of Salvation History of Israel.
