An ESV, HCSB or NASB is preferred. In class I will be using the NASB unless otherwise stated. If a King James or New King James is used, please choose a text that is edited with the NU text notes if possible. A paraphrased Bible is not a good choice for this study. 2. A concordance or computer program with this tool that is keyed to the Bible translation you are using will be very helpful. 3. A notebook where you can record all of your findings on this topic for cross referencing in the future; the workbook is printed single sided to provide space for notes.

Because it is hard, or we don’t even know how to begin, we frequently just don’t begin! However, God has given His Word to us for a reason. We would be wise to heed it. As we look at prophecy, it is helpful to have some insight into its nature. Prophets see events; they do not necessarily see the time between the events. -

INTRODUCTION Many attempting to make sense of prophetic literature in the Hebrew Bible would echo Carroll's assessment that "[t]o the modern reader the books of Isaiah, Jeremiah and Ezekiel are virtually incomprehensible as books."1 For Carroll, the problem with reading these books as "books" is that there is a confusing mixture of prose and poetry, a lack of coherent order and arrange ment, and a shortage of necessary contextual information needed for accu rate interpretation.2 Despite the difficult compositional and historical issues associated with the book of Jeremiah, there is a growing consensus that -

Theme and Genre in 4Q177 and Its Scriptural Selections
THEME AND GENRE IN 4Q177 AND ITS SCRIPTURAL SELECTIONS Mark Laughlin and Shani Tzoref Jerusalem 4Q1771 has conventionally been classified as a “thematic pesher,”2 or, more recently as “thematic commentary,”3 or “eschatological midrash.”4 It is one of a group of Qumranic compositions in which the author cites and interprets biblical texts, applying them to the contemporary experience of his community, which he understands to be living in the eschatological era. Unlike the continuous pesharim, thematic pesha- rim are not structured as sequential commentaries on a particular 1 John M. Allegro first pieced together the thirty fragments that he identified as comprising 4Q177, which he labeled 4QCatena A. Cf. John M. Allegro and Arnold A. Anderson. Qumran Cave 4.I (4Q158–4Q186) (DJD V; Oxford: Clarendon Press, 1968), 67–74, Pls. XXIV–XXV. John Strugnell subsequently added four additional fragments, and suggested improvements to Allegro’s readings and reconstructions (“Notes en marge,” 236–48). Annette Steudel re-worked the order of the material in 4Q174 and 4Q177, and argued that the two manuscripts should be regarded as parts of a single composition, which she termed 4QMidrEschat. See George J. Brooke, “From Flori- legium or Midrash to Commentary: The Problem of Re/Naming an Adopted Manu- script,” in this volume. Cf. Annette Steudel, Der Midrasch zur Eschatologie aus der Qumrangemeinde (4QMidrEschata,b): Materielle Rekonstruktion, Textbestand, Gattung und traditionsgeschichtliche Einordnung des durch 4Q174 (“Florilegium”) und 4Q177 (“Catenaa”) repräsentierten Werkes aus den Qumranfunden (STDJ 13; Leiden: Brill, 1994). The current discussion will touch upon the relationship between 4Q177 and 4Q174 but is primarily concerned with the composition of 4Q177 itself. -

Ezekiel “Hope for Israel”
Ezekiel “Hope for Israel” I. Introduction to Ezekiel Ezekiel is the twenty-sixth book of the Old Testament and the fourth among the Major Prophets. The book has forty-eight chapters, but by word count it is second in size to Jeremiah, among the prophetic books and is the third largest book in the Bible. Ezekiel was included in the Septuagint and its place in the canon has never been seriously questioned in Christian circles. Ezekiel is filled with some of the most fascinating and vivid prophesies of the Old Testament. Sadly, however, Ezekiel has been neglected by many, leaving it as a hunting ground for cultists. This book deserves our careful study if for no other reason than to silence the false teachers who misuse its teachings. Ezekiel gets its name from its author and main character. His name means “God strengthens”. He is not mentioned anywhere else in the Old testament.. All we know about him is in this book. He was a priest Ezekiel 1:3 He was married Ezekiel 24:16 He was taken captive at age 25 in 597 B.C. during the reigns of Jehoiachin and Zedekiah He began his prophetic ministry at age 30 He was exiled to a settlement not far from Babylon called Tel-Abib He preached for at least twenty-two years; lived well beyond the fall of Jerusalem in 587 B.C. While Jeremiah pleaded with those who remained in Jerusalem, and Daniel sought to influence the heart of Babylon’s king, Ezekiel spent his time leading with those who lived in exile. -
10-A Study of Jeremiah (2016)
5/31/16 A Study of JEREMIAH Lesson Seven – Chapters 33-36 GREAT AND MIGHTY THINGS Jeremiah 33:1-13 • How does verse four illustrate the seriousness of Judah’s condition as the siege continued? • How do you explain the change between the anger, fury, and death of verse 5 and the health and peace of verse 6? Why the change? (Rom 11:22) • Verse 8 speaks about cleansing and pardon of iniquities. What does such forgiveness presuppose? Based on all you know about God, what must happen before such cleansing? • What, according to verses 9-11, was to cause God to be glorified? • When Old Testament prophets like Isaiah and Jeremiah prophesy, is it more likely to be about (a) the fate of the nation, (b) the coming Messiah, or (c) both? 1 5/31/16 A BRANCH OF RIGHTEOUSNESS Jeremiah 33:14-18 • What does the inclusion of “the house of Israel” in the prophecy of verse 14 suggest to you about how/when this prophecy is fulfilled? Was there ever a time when the physical nation of Israel (i.e., the ten Northern tribes) were reconstituted and blessed by God? • Regarding the Son of David (v15-18) • Was there ever a time after the exile when Judah was again a free monarchy ruled by a descendant of David? • Who was the last son of David to seat on the throne in Jerusalem? • How then was this prophecy fulfilled? (Matt 1:1; Acts 2:30) THE EVERLASTING PRIESTHOOD Jeremiah 33:18 “Nor shall the priests, the Levites, lack a man to offer burnt offerings before Me, to kindle grain offerings, and to sacrifice continually.” • This is clearly a Messianic prophecy • But -

The Prophecy of Ezekiel 38-39
1 WHAT EZEKIEL 38-39 REVEALS About A FUTURE WORLD WAR III By Steven M. Collins P.O. Box 88735 Sioux Falls, SD 571009-1005 Introduction and Context: The “latter day” prophecy found in Ezekiel 38-39 has long been seen by many Christians as a key prophecy describing events which will occur among the nations in the time preceding the Millennium (or Messianic Age). This is a lengthy and very “meaty” prophecy which needs a thorough examination in order to be understood and appreciated. This research paper has been prompted by the fact that so much is happening in world events which is directly setting the stage for the fulfillment of this prophecy in future world geopolitics. It is needful to warn as many people as possible about what will occur in the years ahead of us, because when it is fulfilled, it will shock all nations and it will drastically affect the lives of everyone on the planet. Ezekiel 38- 39 reveals, in advance, many details about a future World War III which will occur in the years ahead of us. What is noteworthy about this prophecy is that it has God’s “guarantee” that he will personally intervene as needed to make sure it comes to pass exactly as prophesied. If you are interested in knowing the future, consider what Ezekiel 38-39 has to say. If you doubt that there is a Creator God who can influence or control world events, your doubts will also be addressed in this report. As a reassurance to all potential readers, this research paper will not “grind an ax” for or against any religious denomination and it will not ask you for money. -
