  • 1 Where Is Calvary? Mark 15:22 / 9-20-17 / Wed
    1 WHERE IS CALVARY? MARK 15:22 / 9-20-17 / WED INTRODUCTION A. All four gospels give the name of the place Jesus was crucified. 1. Three call it “Golgotha”—Mark 15:22 (Matt. 27:33; John 19:17) 2. All four say it was “the place of the skull.” a. “Golgotha” is an Aramaic word for “a bare skull”. b. Our English version is a transliteration of this Aramaic word. Cleve Haley ! 9/19/2017 6:25 AM c. Only Luke calls it “Calvary” in the KJV.—Luke 23:33 KJV Comment [1]: B. What other clues does the Bible give? 1. First, it was outside the city—John 19:20 and Hebrews 13:12. 2. Second, it was near a well-traveled road—Matt. 27:39; Mark 15:21, 29-30. 3. Third, it was probably on a hill because it was visible from a distance—Mark 15:40. 4. Fourth, it was near a garden that had a new tomb—John 19:41. I. THE TRADITIONAL SITE IS THE CHURCH OF THE HOLY SEPULCHRE. A. This church has a long standing tradition dating back to the time of Constantine, the first Roman Emperor to profess Christianity (A.D. 325). B. According to that tradition, Constantine sent his mother, Helena, to Jerusalem in A.D. 326 to locate holy sites of the Christian faith. C. In 135 A.D. Christians in Judea revolted against Roman rule. The Emperor at that time was Hadrian. He subsequently ordered a temple to Venus also known as Aphrodite be built over Golgotha.

  • PSALM 16: Gethsemane, Gabbatha, Golgotha, the “Garden Tomb,” and the Glory
    PSALM 16: Gethsemane, Gabbatha, Golgotha, the “Garden Tomb,” and the Glory Gordon Franz Introduction On occasions I teach a class on Christian Apologetics. The first assignment I give the students is to read through the entire Book of Acts and note each encounter that believers in the Lord Jesus Christ have with the unsaved in the book. The students are to make a list with: (1) the Christians who are doing the witnessing, (2) the unbelievers bring witnessed to, (3) what the apologetics are that the believers are using, (4) and what the response of the unsaved is to their message. The two main apologetics used by the Early Church in the Book of Acts are: first, the bodily resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ; and second, the fulfillment of Bible prophecy. Psalm 16 is quoted on two occasions in the Book of Acts in order to demonstrate that the bodily resurrection of the Lord Jesus was the fulfillment of this psalm, predicted almost a thousand years before it happened. The first time the psalm is quoted is in Acts 2, Peter’s sermon on the day of Shavuot (Pentecost). The second time it is quoted is in Acts 13 when the Apostle Paul preached in the synagogue of Psidia Antioch on his first missionary journey. Superscription The superscription of Psalm 16 reads, michtam le David. The verbal root for the word “michtam” is to inscribe, to engrave, or write, like on a stele. One gets the impression of an inscription on a victory stele. A stele is an upright stone slab or pillar that has an inscription or some kind of design on it that serves as a monument for propaganda purposes or for veneration.

  • In the Footsteps of Jesus How One Teacher’S Experience Impacted Students’ Learning

When told that to join a study tour that took me to the Holy Biblical archaeology is the “science of excavation, Land.

  • Easter: the Garden Tomb
    Easter: T he Garden Tomb Now in the place where he was crucified there was a garden, and in the garden a new tomb in which no one had yet been laid.

  • The Garden Tomb the Rev
    The Garden Tomb THE REv. M. L. LOANE, M.A., Vice-Principal, Moore Theological College, Sydney. T is perhaps impossible to locate with final certainty the actual sepul· I chre or even the burial ground where the body of Christ was laid after its removal from the Cross. For centuries many people through­ out Christendom have venerated the Church of The Holy Sepulchre as the site. To this day, most churches--the Roman and the Russian, the Greeks and the Copts, the Armenian and the Ethiopian-cling to the traditional belief and rank this spot first among the Holy Places. Few indeed save members of the Reformed Churches would dare to think otherwise. But despite every endeavour to remove it. one insuperable objection remains. It is impossible to see how the site occupied by The Church of The Holy Sepulchre could ever have been outside the city walls. The most recent excavations in 1938 severely diminish any likelihood of a satisfactory answer to this problem. It has been found that exactly underneath the Damascus Gate there stood the gate of an older wall, possibly that of Nehemiah's wall. At all events, this discovery means that almost beyond doubt the walls of the city in Gospel days enclosed the traditional site of the Tomb of Christ. That fact destroys the value of the tradition. However, within the last sixty years there has been a growing body of opinion among Evangelical believers in favour of another site known as The Garden Tomb. Its discovery was due to General. Gordon, who was stationed in Palestine for two or three years prior to his fatal expedition to the Sudan.
