Mr. Layard having been present at the reading, and having, at the request of the Council offered a few remarks on this interesting subject, he was requested to commit them to writing, and they are here appended to Colonel Rawlinson's importailt communication.] • OUTLINE OF ASSYRIAN HISTORY, COLLECTED FBOM THE CUNEIFORM INSCRIPTIONS, Every new fact which is brought to light from the study of the Cuneiform inscriptions tends to confirm the scriptural account of the primitive seat of empire having been established in Lower Chaldsea, or in the neighbouring district of Susiana, From hence a migration must have taken place in a western direction to the land of Shinar, or Sinlcar, the name of which is still preserved in the ruins now called Senlcereh.

Warring political factions bickered within the city while a looming enemy rapidly approached. Amid this com- . (wikicommons). plex political arena, Jeremiah arose as a divine spokesman.

  • Step Into Isaiah the 37Th Chapter! (King Hezekiah's Prayer and The
    Step into Isaiah the 37th chapter! (King Hezekiah’s prayer and the Lord’s response) Isaiah 37:1-38 (NKJV) 1 And so it was, when King Hezekiah heard it, that he tore his clothes, covered himself with sackcloth, and went into the house of the LORD. 2 Then he sent Eliakim, who was over the household, Shebna the scribe, and the elders of the priests, covered with sackcloth, to Isaiah the prophet, the son of Amoz. 3 And they said to him, "Thus says Hezekiah: 'This day is a day of trouble and rebuke and blasphemy; for the children have come to birth, but there is no strength to bring them forth. 4 It may be that the LORD your God will hear the words of the Rabshakeh, whom his master the king of Assyria has sent to reproach the living God, and will rebuke the words which the LORD your God has heard. Therefore lift up your prayer for the remnant that is left.' " 5 So the servants of King Hezekiah came to Isaiah. 6 And Isaiah said to them, "Thus shall you say to your master, 'Thus says the LORD: "Do not be afraid of the words which you have heard, with which the servants of the king of Assyria have blasphemed Me. 7 Surely I will send a spirit upon him, and he shall hear a rumor and return to his own land; and I will cause him to fall by the sword in his own land."

  • The Origin and History of the Samaritans
    Grace Theological Journal 5.1 (1984) 47-75 THE ORIGIN AND HISTORY OF THE SAMARITANS WAYNE A. BRINDLE The development of Samaritanism and its alienation from Juda­ ism was a process that began with the division of the kingdom of Israel, and continued through successive incidents which promoted antagonism, including the importation of foreign colonists into Sa­ maria by Assyria, the rejection of the new Samaritan community by the Jews, the building of a rival temple on Mt. Gerizim, the political and religious opportunism of the Samaritans, and the destruction of both the Samaritan temple and their capital of Shechem by John Hyrcanus during the second century B.C. The Samaritan religion at the time of Jesus had become Mosaic and quasi-Sadducean, but strongly anti-Jewish. Jesus recognized their heathen origins and the falsity of their religious claims. * * * INTRODUCTION ELATIONS between the Jews and the Samaritans were always R strained. Jesus ben Sirach (ca. 180 B.C.) referred to the Samari­ tans as "the foolish people that dwell in Shechem" (Sir 50:26). There is a tradition that 300 priests and 300 rabbis once gathered in the temple court in Jerusalem to curse the Samaritans with all the curses in the Law of Moses. When the Jews wanted to curse Jesus Christ, they called him demon-possessed and a Samaritan in one breath (J ohn 8:48). The Samaritans are important to biblical studies for several reasons: 1 (1) They claim to be the remnant of the kingdom of Israel, specifically of the tribes of Ephraim and Manasseh, with priests of the line of Aaron/ Levi.

  • 2 Kings 19:1-17 19 King Ahab Told Jezebel Everything Elijah Had Done
    Older Kids LMBC Children’s Activity Page 2 Kings 19:1-17 19 King Ahab told Jezebel everything Elijah had done. Ahab told her how Elijah had killed all the prophets with a sword. 2 So Jezebel sent a messenger to Elijah. Jezebel said, “By this time tomorrow I will kill you. I will kill you as you killed those prophets. If I don’t succeed, may the gods punish me terribly.” 3 When Elijah heard this, he was afraid. So he ran away to save his life. He took his servant with him. When they came to Beersheba in Judah, Elijah left his servant there. 4 Then Elijah walked for a whole day into the desert. He sat down under a bush and asked to die. Elijah prayed, “I have had enough, Lord. Let me die. I am no better than my ancestors.” 5 Then Elijah lay down under the tree and slept. Suddenly an angel came to him and touched him. The angel said, “Get up and eat.” 6 Elijah saw near his head a loaf baked over coals and a jar of water. So he ate and drank. Then he went back to sleep. 7 Later the Lord’s angel came to him a second time. The angel touched him and said, “Get up and eat. If you don’t, the journey will be too hard for you.” 8 So Elijah got up and ate and drank. The food made him strong enough to walk for 40 days and nights. He walked to Mount Sinai, the mountain of God.

  • 2 Kings Chapter 19
    2 Kings Chapter 19 2 Kings 19:1 "And it came to pass, when king Hezekiah heard [it], that he rent his clothes, and covered himself with sackcloth, and went into the house of the LORD." “Hezekiah” puts on the traditional garments of mourning and grief (Joel 1:13). “Rent … sackcloth” (see note on 6:30). A reaction that symbolized Hezekiah’s grief, repentance and contrition. The nation had to repent and the king had to lead the way. Tearing clothes was a sign of deep mourning, often the result of sorrow or dismay. In his moment of need, Hezekiah humbled himself and prayed for help. “House of the LORD” (see note on Isa. 37:1). In the previous lesson, Hezekiah's three men had come back and told him of the terrible insults the king of Assyria had made about Hezekiah and Judah, but worst, about the LORD. When Hezekiah heard the abominable things they had said about the LORD, he tore his clothes and went to the temple to pray. Hezekiah went for help to his LORD. 2 Kings 19:2 "And he sent Eliakim, which [was] over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and the elders of the priests, covered with sackcloth, to Isaiah the prophet the son of Amoz." “Elders of the priests” (see note on Isa. 37:2). “Isaiah the prophet” had full access to the king (chapters 18-20 are paralleled in Isa. 36-39). The first reference (in 1 or 2 Kings), to one of the Lord’s greatest prophets (Isa. 1:1).

    EPISODE NO. 196 2 Kings 19:1-36 King Hezekiah Sought God's Will from Isaiah, the Prophet 1 When King Hezekiah heard the message, he tore his clothes. And he put on some rough clothing. Then he went into the temple of Yahweh. 2 Hezekiah sent Eliakim, Shebna, and the older priests to Isaiah. Eliakim was the palace manager, and Shebna was the royal assistant. The men were all wearing rough cloth when they came to Isaiah, the son of Amoz. Isaiah was a prophet. 3 These men told Isaiah: “This is what Hezekiah says: ‘Today is a day of sorrow and punishment and disgrace. Why? It is sad, like when a child should be born, but the mother is not strong enough to give birth to it. 4 The king of Assyria sent his field commander to make fun of the living God. Perhaps Yahweh, your God, will hear what the field commander said. Perhaps Yahweh, your God, will punish him for what he said. So, pray for the few people who are left alive.’ ” 5 When King Hezekiah’s officers came to Isaiah, 6 Isaiah said to them, “Tell your master this: Yahweh says: ‘Don’t be afraid of what you have heard! Don’t be scared by the words which the servants of the king of Assyria have spoken against Me. 7 Listen! I am going to put a spirit in the king of Assyria. He will hear a report that will cause him to go back to his own country. And, I will cause him to die by the sword there!’ ” 8 The field commander heard that the king of Assyria had left Lachish.

    Arcanorum Alchymiae – The Secrets of Alchemy And a primer on the histories of Man, their ways, and customs As recorded by Hermaeus Trismegistus I Είναι αλήθεια, χωρίς σφάλματα, ορισμένα πιο, II Αυτό που είναι κάτω είναι όπως αυτό που είναι πάνω, και τι είναι πάνω είναι σαν αυτό που είναι κάτω, για να ολοκληρώσει τα θαύματα του ένα μόνο πράγμα. III Και ξέρουν ότι όλα τα πράγματα έχουν προκύψει από μία από τη μεσολάβηση ενός: έτσι όλα τα πράγματα έχουν τη γέννησή τους από αυτό το ένα πράγμα με προσαρμογή. IV Ο πατέρας είναι το ήλιο.
