  • After This Jesus Revealed Himself Again to the Disciples by the Sea of Tiberias, and He Revealed Himself in This Way
    “The God of Second Chances” (John 21:1-17) Big Idea: Jesus restoration of Peter shows He is the God of second chances. Back to work (1-3) After this Jesus revealed himself again to the disciples by the Sea of Tiberias, and he revealed himself in this way. 2 Simon Peter, Thomas (called the Twin), Nathanael of Cana in Galilee, the sons of Zebedee, and two others of his disciples were together. 3 Simon Peter said to them, “I am going fishing.” They said to him, “We will go with you.” They went out and got into the boat, but that night they caught nothing. John 21:1-3 ESV It’s The Lord (4-8) Just as day was breaking, Jesus stood on the shore; yet the disciples did not know that it was Jesus. 5 Jesus said to them, “Children, do you have any fish?” They answered him, “No.” 6 He said to them, “Cast the net on the right side of the boat, and you will find some.” So they cast it, and now they were not able to haul it in, because of the quantity of fish. That disciple whom Jesus loved therefore said to Peter, “It is the Lord!” When Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he put on his outer garment, for he was stripped for work, and threw himself into the sea. 8 The other disciples came in the boat, dragging the net full of fish, for they were not far from the land, but about a hundred yards off.

  • 1 the GOSPEL ACCORDING to JOHN General Observations
    1 Commentary to the Gospel according to John - Rev. John Schultz THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO JOHN General Observations: The Gospel according to John and the Synoptic Gospels: The fourth book of the New Testament is in most Greek manuscript simply known as “According to John.” This links this gospel to the three preceding ones. But it is obvious that John’s Gospel is distinct from what is known as “The Synoptic Gospels.” If we would leave John’s Gospel out of our Bible, we would deprive ourselves of a large part of truth that is indispensable to our understanding of the person of Jesus Christ and of the way of salvation. John teaches us lessons that are not found in the other Gospels. The Pulpit Commentary, in its extensive introduction to the Gospel of John, highlights the following points that are representative of John’s teaching, none of which are emphasized in a similar fashion in the other Gospels: § God is Spirit § God is called “the Father” § The teaching about “The Father and the Son” § The teaching about God and the Logos § The Word made flesh § The Son of God, the Christ, the Son of Man § The Spirit and the Trinity § The world as the creature of God § The world of men § The prince of this world § Salvation of the world J. Sidlow Baxter, in his book Exploring the Book, introduces the Gospel of John as follows: “A whole volume might be filled with the encomiums which scholars and saints have written on this ‘Gospel according to John.’ Is there anywhere a more exquisite compound of infinite profundity and lingual simplicity? Was there ever a sublimer subject more ingenuously interpreted? But its priceless preciousness, of course, lies in its Divine revealings and spiritual values.

  • The Four-Fold Gospel
    The Four-Fold Gospel Author(s): McGarvey, J. W. Publisher: Grand Rapids, MI: Christian Classics Ethereal Library Description: This mixture of gospel harmony (a comparison of identical stories from each of the gospels, placed in chronological or- der) and commentary (a verse-by-verse analysis of a pas- sage) by John William McGarvey is a highly technical but incomparably useful guide to the biblical Gospels. McGarvey, a serious student of the Bible and author of many other commentaries, is at his best here in the unique blend. Users should be sure to read the introductory sections in order to understand the abbreviations, symbols, and set-up of the volume to avoid confusion and to get optimal use from the source. This reference is a wonderful expansion of Gospel commentaries, and is one of the only books of its kind.

  • A Concise Study of the Books of the Bible
    A CONCISE STUDY OF THE BOOKS OF THE BIBLE A CONCISE STUDY OF THE BOOKS OF THE BIBLE What is the Bible? The Bible is a collection of books, accepted by Christians as sacred and inspired by God, providing the basis for beliefs about spiritual matters and providing guidelines for moral living. Many verses throughout the Bible attest to its divine origin (Genesis 6:9-13, Exodus 20:1-17, 2 Timothy 3:16, 2 Peter 1:20-21, Revelation 1:1-2, etc.) But the Bible was not simply dictated word-for-word by God; it is also the work of its many different human authors. The different writing skills, writing styles, personalities, world views, and cultural backgrounds of the human authors can be seen in their works. Many of the New Testament books were originally written as letters rather than as Scripture. Some Bible writings include the authors' own research and recollection of historical events (Luke 1:1-4) and their own opinions (1 Corinthians 7:12). THE OLD TESTAMENT There are 39 books in the Old Testament, generally separated into 4 divisions: 1) The Pentateuch traditionally designated as the 5 books of Moses. 2) Historical Books, number 12, from Joshua to Esther. 3) Poetical Books, number 5, from Job to Song of Solomon. 4) Prophetical Books, including the writings of the 5 Major Prophets, from Isaiah to Daniel, 5) and the 12 Minor Prophets from Hosea to Malachi. Synopsis The Old Testament tells the story of God's chosen people, the Hebrews, who were later known as Israelites or Jews.

  • An Investigation Into the Version That Shaped European Scholarship on the Arabic Bible
    Collectanea Christiana Orientalia 18 (2021): 237-259 Vevian Zaki Cataloger of Arabic Manuscripts Hill Museum and Manuscript Library Visiting Researcher Faculty of History University of Oxford The “Egyptian Vulgate” in Europe: An Investigation into the Version that Shaped European Scholarship on the Arabic Bible Introduction In the years from 1818 to 1821, August Scholz (1792–1852), a Catholic orientalist and biblical scholar, made many journeys to libraries across Europe seeking New Testament (NT) manuscripts. He wrote an account of his travels in his book Biblisch-kritische Reise, and in this book, Scholz wrote about all the NT manuscripts he encountered in each library he visited, whether they were in Greek, Latin, Syriac, or Arabic.1 What attracts the attention when it comes to the Arabic NT manuscripts is that he always compared their texts to the text of the printed edition of Erpenius.2 This edition of the Arabic NT was prepared in 1616 by Thomas Erpenius (1584-1624), the professor of Arabic studies at Leiden University—that is, two centuries before the time of Scholz. It was the first full Arabic NT to be printed in Europe, and its text was taken from Near Eastern manuscripts that will be discussed below. Those manuscripts which received particular attention from Scholz were those, such as MS Vatican, BAV, Ar. 13, whose text was rather different from that of Erpenius’s edition.3 1 Johann Martin Augustin Scholz, Biblisch-Kritische Reise in Frankreich, der Schweiz, Italien, Palästina und im Archipel in den Jahren 1818, 1819, 1820, 1821 (Leipzig: Fleischer, 1823). 2 Thomas Erpenius, ed.

  • General References to the Bible1
    Why build a biblical/theological library? Books are to the minister of the gospel of Jesus Christ what tools are to the carpenter: the essentials of the trade. A call to ministry is a call to preparation, and the building of a ministry library is a must, not an option. As the apostle Paul faced his impending death, he still remained a student, requesting of Timothy that he bring the books when he came to visit him in prison (2 Tim. 4:13). This booklet has been prepared for those who desire to follow in Paul’s steps. Warren Wiersbe offers some sound wisdom for this very task: “My books are my tools, and I use them. I cannot afford to be a book collector; neither the budget nor the diminishing shelf space ... permits such a luxury.... I enjoy my library. Each book is a friend that converses with and teaches me. Better to have fewer of the best books than to clutter your shelves with volumes that cannot serve you well. Above all, love your books, use them, and dedicate all you learn to the service of Jesus Christ.”1 To that end we have provided more than 1,000 titles to assist you in building your library and faithfully serving our Lord. Most titles are written from an evangelical perspective, having been authored by individuals who affirm the full authority and inspiration of Scripture (Matt. 5:17-18; 2 Tim. 3:16-17; 2 Pet. 1:20-21). While a good library is necessary as a solid foundation for ministry, training under godly men and women is also important (2 Tim.
