  • The Sons of Keturah – Islam in Prophecy
    mark h lane www.biblenumbersforlife.com THE SONS OF KETURAH – ISLAM IN PROPHECY Is the Prophet Mohammed in Scripture? Yes he is. He is called the 'Blessed Guide'. But he is no blessing. The Biblical account of Keturah will explain this. There was a marriage problem between Abraham and Sarah. We don't know if due to her age Sarah lost interest or rebuffed Abraham for other reasons, but we know they stopped sleeping together. To meet his physical and emotional needs, Abraham took a concubine named Keturah and fathered children by her. Some translations of Genesis 25 verse 1 say “Abraham took another wife, whose name was Keturah”. This is a mistranslation. The Hebrew word in this verse is ‘ishshah’ which means ‘woman’. It can mean ‘wife’ in some contexts but not in this context. We know Keturah was not the wife of Abraham because it is written in verse 5 and verse 6: “Abraham left everything to Isaac. But while he was still living, he gave gifts to the sons of his concubines and sent them away from his son Isaac to the land of the East”. The Hebrew word is ‘piylegesh’ and it has the unmistakable meaning of ‘concubine’ or ‘paramour’. The image above is of a belly-dancer, a harlot of Arabia. You will notice the harlot has her face covered by a veil. According to the Bible, wearing a full-face veil is the mark of a harlot. Concerning another harlot, Tamar, the Bible says: “she took off her widow’s clothes, covered herself with a veil to disguise herself, and then sat down at the entrance to Enaim…” (Genesis 38:13).

  • Sharing Biblical Knowledge, Spiritual Insights, Life and God's Love A
    University City Church of Christ Sharing Biblical knowledge, Spiritual A Publication by and for the Members 4626 NW 8th Ave, Gainesville, FL 32605 Insights, Life and God’s Love Volume 9, Number 1 universitycitychurchofchrist.org KETURAH AND HER BAND OF 14 MEN Abraham had many mothers for his sons (and daughters?). Women were truly considered “chattel” or belongings. Their lives were full of childbirth and hard work. Early translations do not use the word “pain” but “hard work and many pregnancies”. So that is understood as a consequence! And God made women to bare this burden. Keturah enters the picture at this point. She bore six sons, Zimran, Jokshan, Medan, Midian, Ishbak, and Shuah. Later Jokshan was the father of Sheba and Dedan, who had three sons, Asshurim, and Letushim, and Leummim. Then Midian had five more sons: Ephah, Epher, Hanoch, Abidda, and Eldaah. (I spelled out all these Jewish names so you could appreciate them!) Keturah may have been or NOT wealthy or beautiful as was Sarah, but as his wife (concubine?) she gave Abraham fourteen sons and grandchildren! Money in the bank, so to speak! Today we like to feel these “sons” were God's gifts to Abraham and the nation of Israel. All seem precious to the Clan. While Abraham still lived he gave great gifts to “these also” sons. Abraham sent them far away from HIS special Isaac. Probably so there would be less jealousy! As the Bible says God gave the rest of the herds, his lands and his many women and children to Isaac, who began his hard core of devoted and prolific descendants.

    Rest in Christ Restless and Rebellious Lesson #2 for July 10, 2021 Scriptures: Numbers 11:1-33; 12:1-13; 13:27-23; 14:1-23,39-45; 1 Corinthians 10:1-11. 1. When the children of Israel left Egypt after those amazing displays of God’s power in the 10 plagues, they thought that they would be in the land of Canaan within a short time. Under normal circumstances and if they had taken the direct route to Canaan, they could have been there in about two weeks! 2. What actually happened was that they lived in tents at the foot of Mount Sinai for a year. Natural human restlessness soon led to rebellion. 3. There at Mount Sinai, God spoke to them directly from the top of the mount, and they were directed by Moses under the guidance of God to build the tabernacle and begin their close relationship to God. There, God fed them every day, lighted their way, protected them from the sun’s heat, etc. Then, they were finally ready to move on. Numbers 11:1-3: The people began to complain to the LORD about their troubles. When the LORD heard them, he was angry and sent fire on the people. It burnt among them and destroyed one end of the camp. 2The people cried out to Moses for help; he prayed to the LORD, and the fire died down. 3So the place was named Taberah, because there the fire of the LORD burnt among them.—American Bible Society. (1992). The Holy Bible: The Good News Translation* (2nd ed., Numbers 11:1–3).

  • Lesson 3: Family Tree Rummy Abraham, Isaac and Jacob Genesis 15:5-7
    Oak Arbor New Church Sunday School – Lessons for Intermediate Level LESSON 3: FAMILY TREE RUMMY ABRAHAM, ISAAC AND JACOB GENESIS 15:5-7 4 weeks Lesson 3-A: Genealogy - Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob READING AND ACTIVITY: Provide each child with the Word and a blank genealogy sheet. Give each child one of the following assignments (or group the children, if there are more children than assignments). Once they have found the information they need, they should share it with the rest of the class, so that everyone can fill in those blanks on their genealogy sheet. Assignments Note: To make things easier, photocopy this sheet, cut out the assignments, and hand these typed assignments to the children. 1. Read Genesis chapter 16, to find out one of Abraham’s wives and her son. 2. Read Genesis chapter 21:1-3, to find out one of Abraham’s wives and her son. 3. Read Genesis chapter 25:1-2, to find out one of Abraham’s wives and her children. 4. Read Genesis chapter 24:1-28, to find out who Isaac married. 5. Read Genesis chapter 25:19-28, to find out who Isaac’s children were. Now the whole group together will fill in the rest of the genealogy sheet. (Note to the Teacher: Explain that Jacob had traveled away from his home, to go to the home of his relatives in order to find a wife. He reached the home of Laban, his uncle, and agreed to work for him.) Now the teacher (or students) will read aloud Genesis 29, verses 15 to the end.

  • Genesis 25: Times of Transition
    Genesis 25: Times of Transition I. Descendants - A. 25:1 Abraham took another wife, whose name was Keturah. 2 She bore him Zimran, Jokshan, Medan, Midian, Ishbak, and Shuah. 3 Jokshan was the father of Sheba and Dedan. The sons of Dedan were Asshurim, Letushim, and Leummim. 4 The sons of Midian were Ephah, Epher, Hanoch, Abida, and Eldaah. All these were the children of Keturah. 5 Abraham gave all he had to Isaac. 6 But to the sons of his concubines Abraham gave gifts, and while he was still living he sent them away from his son Isaac, eastward to the east country. B. When Sarah died Abraham was about 137 years old. He would live to be 175. This gives him another 38 years to live. We see he did remain a widower but took another wife and had six children. C. The Mention of Keturah is very perfunctory. She is mentioned only once and Abraham when he is buried is buried alongside Sarah who remains the true matriarch. D. Only two of the sons have their offspring detailed. This could mean that the others had no children but it is more likely that the text merely remains silent of their progeny preferring to emphasize those who had the most direct impact on the history of Israel. In particular the genealogy listed here focuses on the origins of the Semitic peoples of Arabia with whom Israel interacted. E. Despite these other children, Isaac remains the child of the promise through whom the covenant with God is and shall be realized.

In a modern update of the productively anachronistic typologies attempted by the Church Fathers, I use the presence of the Egyptian slave in biblical-European foundations to trouble the unstable concept of Europe/Christendom founded on a (distant) Christian heritage. I also use what I’m call- ing the ‘Hagaramic’ to disturb bland invocations of the ‘Abrahamic’ on the contempo- rary political stage.
