Questions Is it time for you to move on in your spiritual journey? The spiritual emphasis of Deuteronomy is that of one generation (or person) passing on values, priorities, and faith to the next. Moses’ final task was to restate the covenant for a new generation – like a modern “ethical will.” It is appropriate that Moses not enter the “Promised Land” for we, in our living years, never fully arrive. Life is, and always should be, a journey, a process. We move forward toward the goal, but we also turn over the journey to the next generation. Martin Luther King Jr. understood this when he preached the night before he died that he had ”been to the mountaintop and seen the promised land.” That was enough. He fulfilled his call. So did Moses. So can we.

Watts [Pre-print version of chapter in Ritual Innovation in the Hebrew Bible and Early Judaism (ed. Nathan MacDonald; BZAW 468; Berlin: De Gruyter, 2016), 21–34.] The builders of Jerusalem’s Second Temple made a remarkable ritual innovation. They left the Holy of Holies empty, if sources from the end of the Second Temple period are to be believed.1 They apparently rebuilt the other furniture of the temple, but did not remake the ark of the cove- nant that, according to tradition, had occupied the inner sanctum of Israel’s desert Tabernacle and of Solomon’s temple. The fact that the ark of the covenant went missing has excited speculation ever since. It is not my intention to pursue that further here.2 Instead, I want to consider how biblical literature dealt with this ritual innovation.

  • Rationales Are Theology in the Holiness Code
    Rationales Are Theology in the Holiness Code Jacob Milgrom H and P are two priestly sources. H stands for the Holiness Code (Leviticus 17–27) and P for the Priestly Code (Leviticus 1–16). H is a supplement to and the editor of P. Both P and H are also distributed in large portions of Exodus and Numbers, but this essay will focus only on the rationales of H in Leviticus 17–27. From the Holiness Code, I shall select one example: Leviticus 20:24–25. This selection is especially important because it fuses two major theological planks in H’s program—separation and holiness—and anchors their foundation in the basic themes of creation and life. Separation (hivdîl; Leviticus 20:24–26) is the leitmotif of the creation story (see Genesis 1:4, 7, 14, 18) as embodied in the Priestly Code. Separation of the elements and species produces order out of chaos1 and allows for life to multiply and ll the earth (see Genesis 1:22–28). Similarly, Israel’s dietary code (Leviticus 11), which declares most of the meat in the animal kingdom off limits (sheqets, “abomination,” or tāmēʾ, “impure”), is based on a reverence-for-life principle, an aspect of P’s life-versus- death theme2 throughout all of its impurity laws (Leviticus 11–15). As shown recently by Jan Baersema,3 P does not limit this principle to forbidden esh. It states that a carcass (of the eight impure sherets; Leviticus 11:29–30) falling on moist seed (but not on dry seed) renders the seed impure (Leviticus 37–38), probably because the moist seed has germinated; it has produced life, and life must not come into contact with death (the carcass).

Qoheleth 12:12 i Preface One of the most exciting trends in the field of religion today is the contiriuing development of the late-in-coming Jewish- Christian dialogue. It is hoped that as the two groups continue to approach each other- in open inquiry emphasizing both those beliefs that unite the groups in spirit, as well as those which distinguish them as separate faiths the resulting experience would enhance the lives of Jews and Christians alike. One of the fields of academic study which naturally lends itself to this type of dialogue is the Hebrew Scriptures; more familiar in the Christian context as the "Old Testament." Speaking from a Christian context, however, the masses of the Christian faith have truly entered into a love-hate relationship with this body of literature.

Berkowitz Abstract “Did Judaism exist in antiquity?” is a question that on the face of it seems absurd, but it has recently been argued that Judaism as an abstract system – as a “religion” rather than an ethnicity – did not come into being until later. This paper proposes that a pericope in Leviticus Rabbah is preoccupied with this very question. Leviticus Rabbah 23, whose anchoring verse is Leviticus 18:3’s instruction to Israel to separate from surrounding peoples, explores the nature of Jewish difference and, in so doing, the nature of Jewishness itself. This midrash produces a variety of paradigms of Jewish identity that include moral probity, physical appearance, relationship to God, ritual life, political status, economics, demographics, and sexual practice, demonstrating that classical rabbinic notions of Jewish identity go well beyond the categories of religion and ethnicity that scholars typically apply.

  • The Decalogue As a Guide for Yorùbá Christian Ethics
    Ilorin Journal of Religious Studies, (IJOURELS) Vol.8 No.1, 2018, pp.27-40 THE DECALOGUE AS A GUIDE FOR YORÙBÁ CHRISTIAN ETHICS Caleb O. Ogunkunle Department of Religions, University of Ilorin, Ilorin. +2348035814417; [email protected] Abstract The level of moral decadence in many African nations is a serious concern to several people, especially biblical scholars. One suspect is a gross violation of ethical principles and values as contained in the Bible. The result of the violation of ethical norms is lack of peace and harmony in many societies and communities in Africa, as there are several cases of wickedness such as stealing, killing and kidnapping among others. This paper examines the Decalogue as an ethical guide for Yorùbá Christians, with the purpose of linking Yorùbá Christian ethics with the Decalogue, the Ten Words which Yahweh gave to Moses on Mount Sinai and to remind Yorùbá Christians of the need to follow the ethical principles contained in the Bible. Historico-exegetical method is adopted. Historically, literature on Decalogue and Yorùbá Christian ethics is reviewed. Exegetically, some key Hebrew words in the Biblical texts are studied with the help of Hebrew Lexicon and Theological Wordbook of the Old Testament. It is discovered that Decalogue is a divine revelation of God to Moses for the Israelites and their obedience to it brought blessings while disobedience brought curses as seen later in their history. Also, there is a strong connection between the Decalogue and different laws found in different societies in Africa. The paper concludes that just as the Decalogue was to the Israelites, so the Bible must be to the Yorùbá Christians.
