  • Throughout 1-2 Kings, the Reader Encounters References to Books in Which He Or She May Find Further Information About the King Just Described in the Biblical Text
    Abstract: Throughout 1-2 Kings, the reader encounters references to books in which he or she may find further information about the king just described in the biblical text. This dissertation seeks to discover the character of these sources and how an author used them to shape the final form of 1-2 Kings. Several scholars to date have attempted to study these questions, but not in a form longer than an article. Thus this work assesses the previous attempts and offers a new proposal at greater length. Various methods are utilized in this investigation, including close literary readings of the biblical text and its grammatical components, comparisons of 1-2 Kings with ancient Near Eastern historiographical texts, and reading intertextually with other biblical texts. The yield is a work that affirms suspicions and initial investigations by some scholars and rebuts the conclusions of others, hopefully furthering conversations about the composition of 1-2 Kings and the Deuteronomistic History at large. They Are Written Right There: An Investigation of Royal Chronicles as Sources in 1-2 Kings Drew S.

  • Elijah 1 Life and Ministry the Reign of Ahab Was a Dark Hour for Israel
    Elijah 1 Life and Ministry The reign of Ahab was a dark hour for Israel. Not only had he and his father Omri exceeded the sins of all the kings that preceded them in their worship of Jehoboam’s golden calves, but he had also married Jezebel, daughter of Ethbaal the priest-king of the Sidonians (878-866 BC) (1 Kings 16:25-26). This marriage, contracted during the reign of Omri, was political in nature and intended to cement an alliance between the two nations. It was expected that in such alliances provision be made for the bride to be able to practice her own religion in her new home (cf. Solomon’s wives 1 Kings 11:1-8). Jezebel went one step further as priestess of Ba’al Melqart, the chief deity of TYRE. She reintroduced the worship of the Canaanite deities Ba’al and Asherah to the Northern Kingdom. To that end she personally supported 450 prophets of Ba’al and 400 prophets of Asherah (1 Kings 18:19), which meant that they were funded from the royal treasury. F.F. Bruce notes: Ahab, while he patronized the new cult, appears to have been a Yahweh-worshipper, to judge by the names borne by the children who names we know - Jehoram (“Yahweh is high”), Ahaziah (“Yahweh has taken hold”), Athaliah (“Yahweh is exalted”). (Bruce, 1987: 44). The situation was not acceptable to the prophets of Yahweh and it is noteworthy that in the hour of Israel’s greatest danger one of the greatest of the Old Testament prophets was raised up to counter it.

    Journal of Religion & Film Volume 22 Article 33 Issue 1 April 2018 3-30-2018 The rP oblem with David: Masculinity and Morality in Biblical Cinema Kevin M. McGeough University of Lethbridge, [email protected] Recommended Citation McGeough, Kevin M. (2018) "The rP oblem with David: Masculinity and Morality in Biblical Cinema," Journal of Religion & Film: Vol. 22 : Iss. 1 , Article 33. Available at: https://digitalcommons.unomaha.edu/jrf/vol22/iss1/33 This Article is brought to you for free and open access by DigitalCommons@UNO. It has been accepted for inclusion in Journal of Religion & Film by an authorized editor of DigitalCommons@UNO. For more information, please contact [email protected]. The rP oblem with David: Masculinity and Morality in Biblical Cinema Abstract The King David of the Bible, and especially as portrayed in the books of Samuel, is one of the most complex characters in ancient literature. We are told his story from his youth as a shepherd until his death as king of Israel. He kills a mighty warrior with a slingshot, goes to war with his king and later his son, and has an affair that threatens to throw his kingdom into disarray. The ts ories surrounding David seem perfect for cinematic adaptation yet what makes this character so compelling has been problematic for filmmakers. Here, three types of Biblical filmmaking shall be considered: Hollywood epics (David and Bathsheba (1951), David and Goliath (1960), and King David (1985)); televised event series (The Story of David (1976) and The Bible: The Epic Miniseries (2013)); and independent Christian films (David and Goliath (2015) and David vs.

  • Introduction to the Old Testament Scriptures: Exodus to Esther
    Introduction To The Old Testament Scriptures: Exodus to Esther Middler Old Testament Isagogics Wisconsin Lutheran Seminary February 2009 1 Preface These notes serve as an introduction to the historical books of the Old Testament from Exodus through Esther. These books cover Old Testament history from Israel in Egypt through the destruction of Jerusalem and the Babylonian Exile up to the time of Ezra, Esther, and Nehemiah. The portion of the earlier edition of the notes which covered Genesis 25-50 has been incorporated into the notes for the Genesis course. These notes build on the isagogics notes which have been in use at Wisconsin Lutheran Seminary for many years. The original outline was prepared by Professor August Pieper, and previous editions of the notes which were published in 1979 and 1985 were largely the work of Professor E. H. Wendland. Biblical references are from the New International Version unless otherwise noted. Maps, illustrations, and charts are from various sources. Since these notes are accompanied by an extensive set of PowerPoints, most of the maps and pictures have been placed into the PowerPoints rather than into the notes. These notes are intended to provide a brief running outline to assist in the reading and review of the biblical text. For more detailed notes on historical and archaeological issues and application of the text see the Concordia/NIV Study Bible and The People’s Bible. We have retained the study questions and homiletical suggestions from previous editions of these notes, even though they are not extensively used in the isagogics course as it is presently taught.

  • Teaching Judeo-Christian Kingship Through Final Fantasy Xv
    ABSTRACT THE GAMIFICATION OF KINGS: TEACHING JUDEO-CHRISTIAN KINGSHIP THROUGH FINAL FANTASY XV by T. Wade Langer, Jr. The history and theology of Judeo-Christian kingship is a difficult topic to teach for pastors and religious educators alike. Most congregants and students find the field uninteresting and irrelevant to the loftier concepts of faith and discipleship. However, since an understanding of the overarching kingship narrative of the Bible is vital for fully understanding concepts such as soteriology, messianic hope, the image of God, and even the nature of God, a curriculum that a participant finds immediately compelling could be useful. This research sought to evaluate a curriculum specifically designed to increase a participant’s interest in Judeo-Christian kingship by examining parallels between the biblical texts and an analogous video game, Final Fantasy XV. Drawing upon the work of both biblical scholars as well as educational experts like Piaget, Dewey, and Vygotsky, this study applied theories of game-based learning, or gamification, to religious education, testing the impact that using Final Fantasy XV to teach the history and theology of Judeo-Christian Kingship had on a participant’s knowledge, attitudes, and behavior. To fully evaluate these areas, a multi-method approach used the following instruments: a Pretest/Posttest, John Keller’s Course Interest Survey, a series of journal prompts, and a focus group. The research was conducted across four weeks with sixteen college-age participants, all members of the University of Alabama Wesley Foundation campus ministry. The research found that the curriculum had significant impact on each participant. Knowledge of and interest in the history and theology of Judeo-Christian kingship increased as a result of the study and all participants offered examples of how the study affected their moral and religious behavior.
