  • Immorality on the Border Lesson #11 for December 12, 2009 Scriptures: Numbers 25; 31; Deuteronomy 21:10-14; 1 Corinthians 10:1-14; Revelation 2:14
    People on the Move: The Book of Numbers Immorality on the Border Lesson #11 for December 12, 2009 Scriptures: Numbers 25; 31; Deuteronomy 21:10-14; 1 Corinthians 10:1-14; Revelation 2:14. 1. This lesson is a discussion about the disastrous results of Balaam’s work with the people of Midian and Moab and the seduction of the children of Israel leading to the death of 24,000 Israelites. It is a lesson about things that “nice people” do not talk about. 2. By the time of the “encounter” with Balaam, the children of Israel–who forty years earlier had been frightened terribly by the report of the ten spies–had seen God work with their soldiers in conquering three nations and were resting at ease in the small plain east of the Jordan River where they could look across the river and see Jericho a few miles away. 3. What were they waiting for? Was Moses busy writing the book of Deuteronomy–a summary of three sermons that Moses was asked to give to the children of Israel? Were they working out the details of the division of the land of Canaan? How did they divide up a land that none of them–except for the parts that Caleb and Joshua had “spied out”–had ever seen? They had no pictures and no maps. They had only what God may have shown Moses. Surely, God understood the hazard that was present in that setting of idleness. Why do you think He allowed them to camp there for some time? They were camped in a small flat area below the hills of Moab.

  • Most Common Jewish First Names in Israel Edwin D
    Names 39.2 (June 1991) Most Common Jewish First Names in Israel Edwin D. Lawson1 Abstract Samples of men's and women's names drawn from English language editions of Israeli telephone directories identify the most common names in current usage. These names, categorized into Biblical, Traditional, Modern Hebrew, and Non-Hebrew groups, indicate that for both men and women over 90 percent come from Hebrew, with the Bible accounting for over 70 percent of the male names and about 40 percent of the female. Pronunciation, meaning, and Bible citation (where appropriate) are given for each name. ***** The State of Israel represents a tremendous opportunity for names research. Immigrants from traditions and cultures as diverse as those of Yemen, India, Russia, and the United States have added their onomastic contributions to the already existing Jewish culture. The observer accustomed to familiar first names of American Jews is initially puzzled by the first names of Israelis. Some of them appear to be biblical, albeit strangely spelled; others appear very different. What are these names and what are their origins? Benzion Kaganoffhas given part of the answer (1-85). He describes the evolution of modern Jewish naming practices and has dealt specifi- cally with the change of names of Israeli immigrants. Many, perhaps most, of the Jews who went to Israel changed or modified either personal or family name or both as part of the formation of a new identity. However, not all immigrants changed their names. Names such as David, Michael, or Jacob required no change since they were already Hebrew names.

  • THE TOPOGRAPHICAL SURVEY 1. Roman Road
    THE TOPOGRAPHICAL SURVEY S. DOUGLAS WATERHOUSE ROBERT IBACH, JR. Andrews University Grace Theological Seminary Berrien Springs, Michigan Winona Lake, Indiana 1. Roman Road from Liwius to Esbus (Fig. 10) To trace the Roman road from Livias (modern Ten er-Rameh) in the Jordan Valley to Esbus (the Greek-Latin designation for Biblical Heshbon), a survey team of four was commi~sioned.~ Long known but never completely traced, this Roman road connected Jerusalem, Jericho, Livias, and Esbus, thus linking the road system of Palestine with the famous north-south uia nova of Trajan in the Roman province of Arabia, east of the Jordan (where Esbus/ Heshbon is situated ) .2 Just as Trajan's north-south "new road" was built ( A.D. 111-114 ) along the course of the much older Biblical "King's Highway" (Num 20:17; 21:22; cf. Gn 145, 6),3so the east-west road, from Jericho to Heshbon, was built near, if not always along, the Biblical "Way of Beth-Jeshimoth" (see the 'Hebrew text of Jos The survey team was to trace the Roman road from Esbus to the Jordan Valley and to obtain an archaeological picture of the occupational sites near Tell Hesbdn, with special emphasis on the large valley, the Wadi Hesbdn. Team members were S.

  • Joseph and Asenath
    JOSEPH AND ASENATH. BY BERNHARD PICK. INTRODUCTION. THE romance of Joseph and Asenath is founded upon the words of Gen. xH. 45 : "And he gave him to wife, Asenath, the daughter of Poti-pherah, priest of On." Later Judaism took offence that Joseph should have married a heathen woman, and the assertion was therefore made that Asenath, whom Dinah bore to Shechem, was brought up by the wife of Poti-pherah, prince of Tanes.^ How- ever this may be, certain it is that this religious romance was once widely known. A fragment of a Greek text of this legend Fabricius published from a Codex Baroccianus in his Codex pseudepigraphns. Vol. H, 85-102 ; but the complete text according to four manuscripts was first published by Batiffol, Studia patristica, etudes d'ancienne littera- ture chretienne, fasc. 1-2, Paris, 1889-1890. pp. 1-87, and this is the one we follow. The Latin text, which was formerly the main source for the knowledge of the legend, is only an extract. It is printed in Vin- centius Belloracensis (13th century), SpecuJiun historiale, Vol. 1, lib. n, cap. 118-124, and reprinted in Fabricius, Codex pseudepi- graphns, I, 774-784. The complete Latin text from which this extract was taken, was discovered by James in two IMSS. of English origin (13th-14th century) at Cambridge, and is given in Batiffol's work, fasc. 2, pp. 89-115.- According to Batift'ol, the translation, like that of the "Testaments of XH Patriarchs," may have been ^ So the Targum Jonathan on Gen. xli. 45.

MARTIN'S LA.NE, PREFACE. -----+-- HE present volume, the sixty-third in series, is given to the T world at a time when such organizations as the Victoria Institute are encountering peculiar difficulty by reason of financial stringency and the call for public economy. In a day when unbelieving materialism abounds, and the fundamental facts and principles of the Christian faith are widely ignored, it is of deep importance that the work of the Institute should be steadily maintained ; and, with the help of God, the Council contemplate plans which, it is hoped, will yield stabilizing results. The contents of the volume speak for themselves. The greatly valued work of the President occupies the opening and concluding sections-the former with a paper on "Adaptation in Nature as Evidence of Purposive Thought," and the latter with an Essay on " Light." With excellent reason, and to the manifest advantage of the Institute, these papers were accorded a warm greeting in the daily press at the time of their delivery. The Schofield Memorial Paper, by Dr. James Knight, entitled '· Demon-Possession, Scriptural and Modern," was a contribution of outstanding significance, being on all hands welcomed as an important study of a subject of pressing interest at the present time.

  • Heshbon (Modern Hesbdn) Is Located in Transj Ordan
    THE HISTORY OF HESHBON FROM LITERARY SOURCES * WERNER VYHMEISTER River Plate College, Puiggari, Entre Rios, Argentina Heshbon (modern Hesbdn) is located in Transjordan, about 20 miles east of the Jordan where it enters the Dead Sea. The remains of the old city are covered now by two hills, 2,930 and 2,954 feet above sea level respectively. According to the latest available statistics (from 1961), the village of Hesbdn has 718 inhabitants. Heshbon in OT Times Heshbon appears for the first time in the Biblical record as the capital city of Sihon, the Amorite king defeated by Moses. However, the region in which Heshbon was located is mentioned much earlier in the Bible. In Gn 14:5, Chedor- laomer and his confederates appear as smiting successively the Rephaim in Ashteroth-karnaim, the Zuzim in Ham, and the Emim in Shaveh Kiriathaim (i.e., the plain of Kiria- thaim). Kiriathaim has been identified with el-Qerei ydt, about five miles northwest of Dhz'bdn.
