The Septuagintal Isaian Use of Nomos in the Lukan Presentation Narrative

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.

(Does Not) Know(S) Us: an Intertextual Dialogue in the Book of Isaiah
Terblanche, “Abraham (does not) know(s) us,” OTE 24/1 (2011): 255-283 255 Abraham (Does not) Know(s) Us: An Intertextual Dialogue in the Book of Isaiah MARIUS D. TERBLANCHE (UNIVERSITY OF THE FREE STATE ) ABSTRACT The stance towards Abraham in Isaiah 63:16 seems to be at odds with the high esteem in which Abraham is held in the other texts in the book of Isaiah which explicitly mention him, and other exilic and post-exilic texts. This state of affairs points to an intertextual dialo- gue between the Abraham texts in the book of Isaiah. The proper name Abraham acts as a signal which alerts a reader to the inter- textual relationship. Isaiah 63:16 displaces 29:22, 41:8 and 51:2 from their positions of authority. Trust in Yahweh himself was the only option for the people. A INTRODUCTION Abraham was particularly held in high esteem in exilic and early post-exilic times. 1 The people’s assertion in Isaiah 63:16a that Abraham does not know them and that Israel does not acknowledge them, is therefore astonishing. The prophet Ezekiel criticises the people remaining in the land after the deportation in 597 B.C.E. for substantiating their claim to the land through a typological alignment with Abraham. 2 Since Abraham was only one man when the land was given to him, the people remaining in the land believed that, although they were few, they could lay claim to the land. 3 The post-exilic prayer in Nehemiah 94 regards God’s promise to Abraham as foundational for hope for salvation in 1 The seven explicit allusions to Abraham in the prophetic corpus all occur in exilic or post-exilic texts, namely Isa 29:22; 41:8; 51:2; 63:16; Jer 33:26; Ezek 33:24; Mic 7:20.

Zion Lutheran Church Sunday Morning Bible Study Lesson 12
Zion Lutheran Church Sunday Morning Bible Study Lesson 12 Chapters 13-23 are a collection of 11 oracles/prophecies/burdens that, with the exception of chapter 22, are directed at heathen nations. To understand the divine impact of these oracles we need to look no further than an historical timeline. Since chapter 7 was written about 735 B.C. and chapters 36-38 were written in 701 B.C. we can pretty safely deduce that Isaiah wrote these oracles between 735-701 B.C. An outline of Isaiah’s Oracles Chapter(s) Nation/Empire 13-14:27 Babylon & Assyria 14:28-32 Philistia 15-16 Moab 17 Damascus (Syria) 18 Ethiopia 19-20 Egypt 21:1-10 Babylon 21:11-12 Edom 21:13-17 Arabia 22 Jerusalem (Judah) 23 Tyre (Lebanon) Isaiah 21 Introduction-Though very short, Chapter 20 of Isaiah is a very important book of the Bible for reasons of validity. Isaiah begins with a very precise time stamp, “In the year that the commander in chief, who was sent by Sargon the king of Assyria, came to Ashdod and fought against it and captured it.” Now, lets dig into that one verse and see how it relates to the validity of the Bible. 1.

FST14.The Forerunner Message in Isaiah 41-42.Study Notes.171208
INTERNATIONAL HOUSE OF PRAYER UNIVERSITY – MIKE BICKLE FORERUNNER STUDY TRACK: THE FORERUNNER MESSAGE IN ISAIAH 1-45 Session 14 The Forerunner Message in Isaiah 41-42 I. INTRODUCTION A. Isaiah spoke this to the people of Judah sometime before the Assyrians invaded the land in 701 BC. Isaiah 41 and 42 go together. Most commentators would agree to that. It is one big topic covered over two chapters. If I had to sum it up in one word, it would be the word, justice. Now you know that Isaiah 42 is a famous chapter. It is one of the famous Isaiah chapters where the Messiah comes and establishes justice in the nations of the world. Isaiah 41 is leading up to the great justice chapter of Isaiah 42. Like many of the other chapters, Isaiah spoke this message to the people of Judah, to the southern kingdom, some time before the great Assyrian invasion of which the nation was fearful because the Assyrians, the super power of that day, were coming down to Judah, surrounding them, and destroying the cities. However, Isaiah 41-42 is far more about the generation that the Lord returns, though it did help the people in Isaiah’s day. They did not understand there was a big storyline where billions of people would be on the earth in the generation when God transitions the earth to the age to come. That is where the ultimate lessons of Isaiah 41-42 are really applied in a global way. So we have the outline here: B. Outline for Isaiah 41-42 41:1-7 The Lord controls human history 41:8-16 The Lord will help Israel 41:17-20 The Lord will supernaturally help Israel return to the land 41:21-29 The powerlessness of false gods 42:1-4 God’s Servant will establish justice in the nations 42:5-9 God’s Servant will give light to the nations 42:10-17 The end-time prayer movement and Jesus’ second coming 42:18-25 God’s discipline of Israel C.

Ancient Israel's Neighbors
Ancient Israel's Neighbors Isaiah was God’s prophet who was called to preach, teach, and prophesy to the entire known world, not just to those who lived in his kingdom. He prophesied to Arabia (Isaiah 21:13–17), Assyria (10:12–19), Babylon (13:6– 22; 21:1–10; 47:1–15), Edom (34:1–15), Egypt (19:1–25), Ethiopia (20:1–6), Moab (15:1–16:4), and Philistia (14:28–32). ISAIAH 2:16 And upon all the ships of Tarshish, and upon all pleasant pictures. Tarshish, the precise location of which is unknown, was probably a prosperous and bustling Mediterranean seaport. Through Tarshish, Solomon imported luxury items, including gold, silver, ivory, apes, and peacocks (1 Kings 10:22). Perhaps because of the city’s wealth and afuence, the destruction of Tarshish and its ships symbolizes the Lord’s judgment on the proud and arrogant (Psalm 48:7; Isaiah 23:1, 14). ISAIAH 7:18 And it shall come to pass in that day, that the Lord shall hiss for the y that is in the uttermost part of the rivers of Egypt, and for the bee that is in the land of Assyria. The y and the bee often symbolize ghting soldiers (Deuteronomy 1:44; Psalm 118:12). These symbols are well chosen because “the ooding of the Nile brought . swarms of ies,” and “the hill districts of Assyria were well known for their bees” (J. Alec Motyer, The Prophecy of Isaiah: An Introduction and Commentary, 89). In this case, Isaiah prophesies that the Lord will prompt the Assyrian armies, here referred to as “bees,” to come down on Judah.

Joseph Smith's Interpretation of Isaiah in the Book of Mormon
SCRIPTURAL STUDIES Joseph Smith's Interpretation of Isaiah in the Book of Mormon David P. Wright THE BOOK OF MORMON (hereafter BM), which Joseph Smith published in 1830, is mainly an account of the descendants of an Israelite family who left Jerusalem around 600 B.C.E. to come to the New World. According to the book's story, this family not only kept a record of their history, which, added upon by their descendants, was to become the BM, but also brought with them to the Americas a copy of Isaiah's prophecies, from which the BM prophets cite Isaiah (1 Ne. 5:13; 19:22-23). Several chapters or sections of Isaiah are quoted in the BM: Isaiah 2-14 are cited in 2 Nephi 12-24; Isaiah 48-49 in 1 Nephi 20-21; Isaiah 49:22-52:2 in 2 Nephi 6:6-7,16- 8:25; Isaiah 52:7-10 in Mosiah 12:21-24; Isaiah 53 in Mosiah 14; and Isaiah 54 in 3 Nephi 22. Other shorter citations, paraphrases, and allusions are also found.1 The text of Isaiah in the BM for the most part follows the King James Version (hereafter KJV). There are some variants, but these are often in- significant or of minor note and therefore do not contribute greatly to clarifying the meaning of the text. The BM, however, does provide inter- pretation of or reflections on the meaning of Isaiah. This exegesis is usu- ally placed in chapters following citation of the text (compare 1 Ne. 22; 2 Ne.
