Eve & Adam Seth Noah & Wife Eve & Adam God created the first man and woman as the first family. They made a horrible choice to sin against God. But God had a perfect plan to rescue them and all of us. It’s the first promise. (Genesis 3:15) 1 Noah & Wife God told Noah to build a big boat called an ark. God was going to Seth send rain to destroy the earth through a flood. It had never rained Cain was wicked. When Adam was 130 years old, he had another son before. The people mocked Noah for building the ark but God named Seth. God had chosen another man from which He would bring the promised to save Noah, his wife and sons. Noah lived another Messiah. Then men began calling on the Lord again. (Genesis 4:25-26) 350 years after he and his family left the ark. Each son went a different direction and Shem stayed in the same region as the ark landed. It is believed that Abraham is part of Shem’s family. 2 3 Abraham & Sarah Shem God spoke to Abraham and told him to pack up his wife and his house- hold (which was a lot of people that worked for him and all their animals) Noah had three sons. Shem, Ham and Japeth. Ham went south (Israel, and move to another place. God didn’t tell him where but told him to get Egypt, Africa), Japeth went north (Europe) and Shem made his life going. (Genesis 12) They had no children but a nephew named Lot. God around the same area (Iraq, Iran and Asia). It is from Shem’s family that gave a piece of land to Abraham and a child to them in their old age.

He had everything: power, A good and honorable man named Boaz allowed Ruth to pick from his wealth, and comfort but he couldn’t deny he was truly a Hebrew saved field. Boaz and Ruth fell in love. Ruth and Boaz had a son and they from when he was just a baby for something special. God used Moses to named him Obed. He was the father of Jesse and Jesse was the free His people from slavery. father of the Great King David. 10 11 Samuel Samuel’s job was to find the new king for Israel.

David was a shepherd who grew to be the great king of Israel. 14 15 Jesus Jesus is special because he is 100% human and 100% God yet He never sinned. Jesus was tempted just like we are but never sinned in His thoughts, feelings or actions.

  • God's Faithfulness in the Book of Ruth
    God’s Faithfulness in the Book of Ruth 1. Introduction. A. Read: Ruth 4:18-22 - 18 This, then, is the family line of Perez: Perez was the father of Hezron, 19 Hezron the father of Ram, Ram the father of Amminadab, 20 Amminadab the father of Nahshon, Nahshon the father of Salmon, 21 Salmon the father of Boaz, Boaz the father of Obed, 22 Obed the father of Jesse, and Jesse the father of David. [slide 1] B. We’ve been gleaning from the book of Ruth over the past couple of months, trying to take a magnifying glass to see some of what God is speaking to us from this book. Now, after all of the tragedy and hope, despair and celebration, drama and romance, we come to this conclusion - a genealogy?! C. I’ve been part of the Navigators and they have memory verse packs, but I don’t think this passage was in there. Would you put it in there? Probably not! Especially if you memorized the King James version: Perez begat Hezron, Hezron begat Ram … all the way to Jesse begat David. The book of Ruth is a great story, but you think it is a little weak on the ending? D. We said early on in this study that the author of this book was very skillful. The skill in story-telling shows up in the way he ends this book. You and I have been looking at details in this book and now the author is backing us out of the fields, out of Bethlehem, to a bigger picture.

  • December 6 2009
    SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSONS Commentary by Michael Sigler December 6, 2009 The Lineage of David Ruth 4:13-17 & Matthew 1:1-6 Key verse: “The women of the neighborhood gave him a name, saying, ‘A son has been born to Naomi.’ They named him Obed; he became the father of Jesse, the father of David” (Ruth 4:17). What parts of the Bible do you skip over? Most people rarely read the genealogies—“so-and-so begat so-and-so who begat so-and-so.” Granted, these passages might not offer the most exciting reading. But with just a little study, the genealogies of the Bible offer great spiritual treasures! This week’s lesson dips into the genealogy of Christ as presented in Matthew’s Gospel. The lesson also looks back to two ancient women of faith whose lives play an integral part in God’s great plan for humanity—Naomi and Ruth. Their story as told in the Book of Ruth is one of the most beautiful stories in the Bible. The story focuses on Naomi first, a Hebrew woman whose family has lost everything because of a famine. Trying to find a way to survive, Naomi, her husband and their two sons move to the nearby country of Moab. There the two sons find wives. But before long, bad times are back. Naomi’s husband and both of her sons die, leaving her with few prospects for support. Hearing that the famine in Judah has ended, Naomi decides to go home. The second part of the story focuses on Naomi’s daughter-in-law, Ruth.

  • Eve's Answer to the Serpent: an Alternative Paradigm for Sin and Some Implications in Theology
    Calvin Theological Journal 33 (1998) : 399-420 Copyright © 1980 by Calvin Theological Seminary. Cited with permission. Scholia et Homiletica Eve's Answer to the Serpent: An Alternative Paradigm for Sin and Some Implications in Theology P. Wayne Townsend The woman said to the serpent, "We may eat fruit from the trees in the garden, but God did say, `You must not eat fruit from the tree that is in the middle of the garden, and you must not touch it, or you will die. "' (Gen. 3:2-3) Can we take these italicized words seriously, or must we dismiss them as the hasty additions of Eve's overactive imagination? Did God say or mean this when he instructed Adam in Genesis 2:16-17? I suggest that, not only did Eve speak accu- rately and insightfully in responding to the serpent but that her words hold a key to reevaluating the doctrine of original sin and especially the puzzles of alien guilt and the imputation of sin. In this article, I seek to reignite discussion on these top- ics by suggesting an alternative paradigm for discussing the doctrine of original sin and by applying that paradigm in a preliminary manner to various themes in the- ology, biblical interpretation, and Christian living. I seek not so much to answer questions as to evoke new ones that will jar us into a more productive path of the- ological explanation. I suggest that Eve's words indicate that the Bible structures the ideas that we recognize as original sin around the concept of uncleanness.

  • Constructing Secularism: Separating 'Religion' and 'State' Under The
    Constructing Secularism: Separating ‘Religion’ and ‘State’ under the Indian Constitution ∗ M Mohsin Alam The jurisprudence of freedom of religion under the Indian Constitution presents us with a muddled picture. With a complicated history of denominational religion and reform, these provisions have been seen to be the very root of the ‘social revolution’ which the Constitution intended to mark. At the same time, the restrictive interpretation of arts 25 and 26 of the Constitution, in the form of what I have called the doctrine of ‘essentiality’, has failed to gather enough attention. It is argued that this interpretation of freedom of religion was revolutionary from the point of view of the natural textual construction. Moreover, it is argued that this construction of the text re-aligned the constitutional conception of secularism, something that is not often noted. While this construction strengthened the power of the state to regulate denominational religion, it reduced ‘constitutional secularism’ to a concept antithetical to the individual’s right to freedom of religion. ‘Our tradition teaches tolerance; our philosophy preaches tolerance; our Constitution practises tolerance; let us not dilute it.’ Chinappa Reddy J in Bijoe Emmanuel v State of Kerala (1986) 3 SCC 615 The past couple of decades have given secularism not only a highly con- tested presence in the Indian polity, but have also turned it into a political homograph – used to legitimise divergent political acts by divergent political interests.1 In this context, a discussion of the judicial definition of secularism may seem to be inadequate, or even superfluous. Significantly, however, while the politics of defining secularism have been incessantly fought in the theatre of electoral and power politics, it has been accom- panied by each of the sides staking claim to the constitutional conception of secularism.

  • The Generations of Adam
    The Generations of Adam hat is the purpose of Bible chronology? According to Philip Mauro, in Wonders of Bible Chronology, “its basis is the Bible itself; its plan is the genealogical or life line that Wstretches from the first Adam to the last Adam ... and its purpose is to bring those who follow its progress to revelations of vital truth pertaining to God’s mighty work of redemption.” Genesis 5 reveals the time span between Adam and the worldwide flood of Noah’s time. The following table summarizes this time line: Age at: Anno Hominis Adam created 0 Adam's birth of Seth (130) 130 Seth's birth of Enosh (105) 235 Enosh's birth of Kenan (90) 325 Kenan's birth of Mahalalel (70) 395 Mahalalel's birth of Jared (65) 460 Jared's birth of Enoch (162) 622 Enoch's birth of Methuselah (65) 687 Methuselah's birth of Lamech (187) 874 Lamech's birth of Noah (182) 1056 time of worldwide flood Noah's 1656 (600) Before we analyze Genesis 5 further, a few general points must be made. First, the Bible is the only reliable source book that gives history with an exact chronology for the first 4000 years of the human race. It has been about 6000 years since the creation of man. For the first 3/5ths of this period, there is no chronological information whatever except in the Bible. The histories of other peoples give an account of their beginning vaguely and in the context of myths and fables. In contrast, the Bible is a very accurate historical document.

  • God Made Eve and Ordained Marriage
    GGOODD MMAADDEE EEVVEE aanndd oorrddaaiinneedd mmaarrrriiaaggee Several thousand years have passed since Adam and Eve became man and wife, but God hasn’t changed what he first instructed mankind regarding marriage in the Bible. Did you know that God was the One who decided that man and woman should marry? In Genesis 2 we find part of the wedding service spoken in many wedding ceremonies today. Men and women and marriage and children are very important to God. Marriage is not just a good idea… it’s a “God Idea”! But some people don’t know or don’t believe what God says about marriage. They say that marriage is something to be tried out to see if it will work—depending upon how you feel about it. Many folks are even suggesting that the idea of marriage is outdated. But what does the Bible say about marriage? Let’s take a look and find out! God decided that Adam needed a wife to help him and to be his companion. Genesis 2:18 The LORD God said, “It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper suitable for him.” God decided that Adam should not live alone. - God was his Creator and knew what was best for him. - God didn’t ask Adam what he wanted or thought best. - God made the decision to make a wife for Adam. God loved Adam and wanted him to be complete. - God knew that Adam wouldn’t continue to be happy if he remained alone. - Because God loved Adam and wanted what was best for him, he decided to make a wife for him.

  • Another Look at Cain: from a Narrative Perspective
    신학논단 제102집 (2020. 12. 31): 241-263 https://doi.org/10.17301/tf.2020.12.102.241 Another Look at Cain: From a Narrative Perspective Wm. J McKinstry IV, MATS Adjunct Faculty, Department of General Education Presbyterian University and Theological Seminary In the Hebrew primeval histories names often carry significant weight. Much etymological rigour has been exercised in determining many of the names within the Bible. Some of the meaning of these names appear to have a consensus among scholars; among others there is less consensus and more contention. Numerous proposals have come forward with varying degrees of convincing (or unconvincing as the case may be) philological arguments, analysis of wordplays, possi- ble textual emendations, undiscovered etymologies from cognates in other languages, or onomastic studies detailing newly discovered names of similarity found in other ancient Semitic languages. Through these robust studies, when applicable, we can ascertain the meanings of names that may help to unveil certain themes or actions of a character within a narrative. For most of the names within the primeval histories of Genesis, the 242 신학논단 제102집(2020) meaning of a name is only one feature. For some names there is an en- compassing feature set: wordplay, character trait and/or character role, and foreshadowing. Three of the four members in the first family in Genesis, Adam, Eve, and Abel, have names that readily feature all the elements listed above. Cain, however, has rather been an exception in this area, further adding to Genesis 4’s enigmaticness in the Hebrew Bible’s primeval history. While three characters (Adam, Eve, and Abel) have names that (1) sound like other Hebrew words, that are (2) sug- gestive of their character or actions and (3) foreshadow or suggest fu- ture events about those characters, the meaning of Cain’s name does not render itself so explicitly to his character or his role in the narrative, at least not to the same degree of immediate conspicuousness.

  • Verse: Ruth 4:1-22
    Verse: Ruth 4:1-22 Note to the Teacher: I have included additional verses that might help answer questions of the fourth chapter's cultural proceedings. Next week we will begin reading the Parables of Jesus from the Gospel of Matthew. Big Idea of the Lesson: God is the active mover of redemption when He is both seen and unseen. The redemption story in Ruth is fully realized and offered to all in the Jubilee brought by Christ Jesus. Key Verses: Deuteronomy 25:5-10 Leviticus 25:10-13, 23-25 Luke 4:18-21 Key Words: In verse 1, the use of “friend” is an inadequate translation. A better equivalency is “So and So,” which is a statement that the kinsman does not respond as a proper redeemer, making him not worth remembering or recording. Names matter in the Old Testament; he has no name. Jubilee – This word does not appear in the text, but it lives in the story's background. Jubilee was supposed to be observed every 50th year (after 7 cycles of 7 years). A ram's horn would be blown to demark the year, slaves would be freed, debt cleared, land returned to the ancestorial family, and the people of God, animals, and land would rest for the entire year. Jubilee is a reminder and statement of who owns the land, people, and possessions; God is the owner. All that Israel had was a gift from God. It is not the year of Jubilee in Ruth. So Boaz must work as Kinsman-Redeemer per Levitical law because, without his intervention, Naomi's land and her and Ruth's freedom will be lost until the Jubilee year.

  • Rahab: a Woman of Faith” Matthew 1:1-17, Joshua 2:1-1 4 Wayne J
    Old Testament Readings: Psalm 130:1-8, Jeremiah 31:31-34 New Testament Reading: Luke 1:68-79 The Five Women in the Lineage of Jesus “Rahab: A Woman of Faith” Matthew 1:1-17, Joshua 2:1-1 4 Wayne J. Edwards, Pastor Because of her profession, Rahab, a Canaanite woman, was always identified as a harlot. Because of her expressed faith in a forgiving and merciful God, Rahab became a heroine to her family, the first Gentile to be welcomed into God’s family, and one of the mothers in the lineage of Jesus. Even though she was a Gentile, the writer of Hebrews included Rahab in the Hebrew Hall of Faith; identifying her as the woman who did not perish, like those who were disobedient. Even though she worked as a prostitute, and lied to the king’s messengers, James, the half-brother of Jesus, said Rahab was “justified by her works when she received the messengers and sent them another way.” The reason the story of Rahab is in the Scriptures is to show us that God delights to display the glory of His grace, and the wonders of His love, to and through the least likely candidates. The New Testament lists two genealogies of Jesus. Luke 3:23-38 is the ascending record of Jesus’ family tree, beginning with the birth of Jesus to Mary, and then tracing His lineage back 77-generations to Adam. Luke wrote his genealogy of Jesus to prove His humanity. Matthew 1:1-17 is the descending record of Jesus’ family tree, beginning with Abraham and tracing his lineage forward 42-generations to Joseph.
