However, scholarship scarcely has treated the theme of νόμος, the Νόμος is .תורה Septuagintal word Luke uses as a translation of the Hebrew word mentioned four times in the Presentation narrative; it also is a word in Septuagintal Isaiah to which the metaphor of light in Luke 2:32 alludes. In 2:22-32—a pivotal piece within Luke-Acts—νόμος relates to several themes, including ones David Pao discusses in his study on Isaiah’s portrayal of Israel’s restoration, appropriated by Luke. My dissertation investigates, for the first time, the Septuagintal Isaian use of νόμος in this pericope. My thesis is that Luke’s use of νόμος in the Presentation pericope highlight’s Jesus’ identity as the Messiah who will restore and fulfill Israel.

  • The Septuagint As Christian Scripture: Its Prehistory and the Problem of Its
    OLD TESTAMENT STUDIES Edited by David J. Reimer OLD TESTAMENT STUDIES The mid-twentieth century was a period of great confidence in the study of the Hebrew Bible: many historical and literary questions appeared to be settled, and a constructive theological programme was well underway. Now, at the turn of the century, the picture is very different. Conflicting positions are taken on historical issues; scholars disagree not only on how to pose the questions, but also on what to admit as evidence. Sharply divergent methods are used in ever more popular literary studies of the Bible. Theological ferment persists, but is the Bible's theological vision coherent, or otherwise? The Old Testament Studies series provides an outlet for thoughtful debate in the fundamental areas of biblical history, theology and literature. Martin Hengel is well known for his seminal work on early Judaism and nascent Christianity. In this volume he turns his attention to the Septuagint—the first bible of the church, yet a product of Greek- speaking Judaism. Hengel probes into the historical and theological puzzles posed by the Septuagint opening a window on the formation of canon and attitudes to scripture in the Christian tradition, and on the relationship between Judaism and Christianity in the early centuries of the era.

  • DAILY BREAD the WORD of GOD in a YEAR by the Late Rev
    DAILY BREAD THE WORD OF GOD IN A YEAR By the late Rev. R. M. M’Cheyne, M.A. THE ADVANTAGES • The whole Bible will be read through in an orderly manner in the course of a year. • Read the Old Testament once, the New Testament and Acts twice. Many of you may never have read the whole Bible, and yet it is all equally divine.“All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, and instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be perfect.” If we pass over some parts of Scripture, we will be incomplete Christians. • Time will not be wasted in choosing what portions to read. • Often believers are at a loss to determine towards which part of the mountains of spices they should bend their steps. Here the question will be solved at once in a very simple manner. • The pastor will know in which part of the pasture the flock are feeding. • He will thus be enabled to speak more suitably to them on the sabbath; and both pastor and elders will be able to drop a word of light and comfort in visiting from house to house, which will be more readily responded to. • The sweet bond of Christian unity will be strengthened. • We shall often be lead to think of those dear brothers and sisters in the Lord, who agree to join with us in reading these portions. We shall more often be led to agree on earth, touching something we shall ask of God.

    THROUGH THE BIBLE STUDY ZECHARIAH 13-14 It was the fall of 1973, an Israeli lieutenant, Zvi Greengold, was at home on his kibbutz in the Galilee, celebrating the Jewish high holy days, with his family. Suddenly, he heard an IDF fighter jet fly overhead. He knew something was wrong. No missions were scheduled on the holy days. He immediately went to his army radio and discovered his beloved Israel was under a coordinated attack. Egyptian troops had crossed the Suez Canal and were rolling into the Sinai, while the Syrians were pouring into the Golan Heights. “Zwicka" as he was called, quickly put on his uniform, and hitchhiked to the Army headquarters in the Golan Heights. When he arrived the situation was grim. The Israelis had been caught totally off-guard - a mere 188 tanks were trying to hold the high ground above the Sea of Galilee against 2000 Syrian tanks. Zwicka took two broken down Centurion tanks, and radioed to Israelis troops on the frontline that the Zwicka Force was on its way. Soon he came under heavy fire, and sent his support tank back for repairs. To survive, Zwicka left the main road and began maneuvering across the rugged and hilly countryside. All through the night Zwicka would suddenly appear from behind a knoll, fire on the Syrians; then disappear. Zvi Greengold’s lone tank was so effective the Syrians thought they were fighting an entire tank brigade. His heroism !1 gave courage to the outnumbered Israelis forces, and helped them push back the enemy. And the Zwicka Force was just one example of Israelis troops performing unprecedented feats on the battlefield that day.

  • The Shepherd Imagery in Zechariah 9-141
    404 O’Kennedy: The shepherd imagery OTE 22/2 (2009), 404-421 The shepherd imagery in Zechariah 9-141 D. F. O’KENNEDY (UNIVERSITY OF STELLENBOSCH) ABSTRACT The shepherd image emphasises the shepherd’s role as leader, pro- vider and protector. In Zechariah 1-8 one finds references to spe- cific leaders, for example king Darius, the high priest Joshua and the governor Zerubbabel. Zechariah 9-14 has no reference to a spe- cific leader. On the contrary, one finds 14 occurrences of the shep- herd image as a reference to God or earthly leaders (civil and re- ligious). The question posed by this article is: Which different per- spectives are portrayed by this image? The use of the shepherd im- age in Zechariah 9-14 cannot be restricted to one perspective or meaning like in some Biblical passages (cf. Ps 23). The following perspectives are discussed: God as the good shepherd (Zech 9:16; 10:3b, 8); the prophet as shepherd (11:4-14); the three bad shep- herds (11:8); the worthless shepherd, who deserts his flock (11:15- 17); God’s shepherd, his associate (13:7-9) and even a viewpoint that God is indirectly portrayed as an “uncaring shepherd” (cf. 11:4-17). A INTRODUCTION In Zechariah 1-8 one finds references to specific leaders like king Darius, the high priest Joshua and the governor Zerubbabel. However, Zechariah 9-14 has no reference to a specific leader. On the contrary, one finds 14 occurrences of the shepherd image2 as a reference to God or earthly leaders (civil and reli- gious).
