36 - The Birthday of Jesus Christ Jesus Christ was absolutely NOT born on December 25th. By using information given to us about the conception and birth of John the Baptist, statements about the conception of Jesus as well as the priestly divisions laid out in Leviticus, we can accurately estimate the Birthday of Jesus to be early to mid September. This calendar shows the relationships between our solar (Gregorian) calendar, the Hebrew lunar calendar, and the schedule of the Levitical priests. I believe Jesus was probably born on 9/11 which was then purposely chosen for evil by the rulers of the world in order to tarnish the birthday of our Lord. 1 Jehoiarib Levitical Priest Divisions Conception of Jesus Christ 2 Jedaiah There was a rotating schedule of 24 Jesus was conceived 6 months after 3 Harim priests (shown on the outer ring). the conception of John the Baptist. 4 Seorim 1st Chronicles (24:5-19) (Approximately December 11th). 5 Malchijah Luke (1:26-38) 3 6 Mijamin 7 Hakkoz Birth of John The Baptist 8 Abijah Huppah Jeshebeab John the Baptist was born 9 9 Jeshua Jakim Bilgah Eliashib months after his conception. 10 Shecaniah Immer Shecaniah (Approximately March 11th). 11 Eliashib Hezir 40 41 Luke (1:57) 4 12 Jakim Jeshua 39 42 38 Happizzez 13 Huppah 43 Abijah 37 44 14 Jeshebeab Pethahiah 36 Teves 15 Bilgah Hakkoz 45 35 16 Immer Jehezkel Kislev 46 17 Hezir Mijamin 34 18 Happizzez December January 47 Jachin 33 Sh'vat 19 Pethahiah Malchijah 48 20 Jehezkel 51 52 1 2 Gamul 32 50 3 21 Jachin November 49 4 February Seorim 48 5 49 Solar vs. 22 Gamul Chesvan 31 47 6 Delaiah Lunar 23 Delaiah 46 7 50 Calendar Harim 24 Maaziah 45 8 Difference 30 Maaziah 44 9 Adar Happy Birthday Jesus! 51 Jedaiah 43 10 29 March EXTRA October 42 11 ***September 11th*** 52 WEEK 41 12 FEAST-3 28 Tishrei 40 13 1 Jehoiarib Jehoiarib 27 39 14 38 15 2 Jedaiah Nisan 26 37 16 April Maaziah September 3 36 17 FEAST-1 25 35 18 Delaiah 4 34 19 Elul Harim 24 33 20 Gamul 32 21 5 31 22 May 23 August Seorim 30 23 Iyar 29 28 25 24 6 Jachin 27 26 22 Malchijah 7 Jehezkel 21 Av July June 8 Mijamin 20 Pethahiah Sivan 9 19 Tammuz Hakkoz 10 Happizzez 18 Hebrew Year 11 Abijah 17 The Hebrew calendar Hezir 16 12 Birthday of Jesus Christ 15 14 13 FEAST-2 begins in Nisan (March- Immer April) and the first priest is Mary gave birth to Jesus Christ 9 Jeshua Bilgah Jehoiarib. months after His conception.

Priesthood, Cult, and Temple in the Aramaic Scrolls from Qumran
PRIESTHOOD, CULT, AND TEMPLE IN THE ARAMAIC SCROLLS PRIESTHOOD, CULT, AND TEMPLE IN THE ARAMAIC SCROLLS FROM QUMRAN By ROBERT E. JONES III, B.A., M.Div. A Thesis Submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy McMaster University © Copyright by Robert E. Jones III, June 2020 McMaster University DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY (2020) Hamilton, Ontario (Religious Studies) TITLE: Priesthood, Cult, and Temple in the Aramaic Scrolls from Qumran AUTHOR: Robert E. Jones III, B.A. (Eastern University), M.Div. (Pittsburgh Theological Seminary) SUPERVISOR: Dr. Daniel A. Machiela NUMBER OF PAGES: xiv + 321 ii ABSTRACT My dissertation analyzes the passages related to the priesthood, cult, and temple in the Aramaic Scrolls from Qumran. The Aramaic Scrolls comprise roughly 15% of the manuscripts found in the Qumran caves, and testify to the presence of a flourishing Jewish Aramaic literary tradition dating to the early Hellenistic period (ca. late fourth to early second century BCE). Scholarship since the mid-2000s has increasingly understood these writings as a corpus of related literature on both literary and socio-historical grounds, and has emphasized their shared features, genres, and theological outlook. Roughly half of the Aramaic Scrolls display a strong interest in Israel’s priestly institutions: the priesthood, cult, and temple. That many of these compositions display such an interest has not gone unnoticed. To date, however, few scholars have analyzed the priestly passages in any given composition in light of the broader corpus, and no scholars have undertaken a comprehensive treatment of the priestly passages in the Aramaic Scrolls.

Fisher, Memories of The
Memories of the Ark: Texts, Objects, and the Construction of the Biblical Past By Daniel Shalom Fisher A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Near Eastern Studies in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Ronald Hendel, Chair Professor Robert Alter Professor Benjamin Porter Professor Daniel Boyarin Professor Ann Swidler Summer 2018 Copyright © 2018 by Daniel Shalom Fisher, All Rights Reserved. 1 Abstract Memories of the Ark: Texts, Objects, and the Construction of the Biblical Past by Daniel Shalom Fisher Doctor of Philosophy in Near Eastern Studies University of California, Berkeley Professor Ronald Hendel, Chair This dissertation constructs a cultural biography of the Ark of the Covenant, exploring through it the close, but often complicated, relationships that have existed between objects and collective memory in Biblical and ancient Jewish societies. The project considers the different ways in which Biblical writers and interpreters have remembered the Ark as a “real thing,” forming it, mobilizing it, and making meaning with it—largely in its absence after its likely loss in the 6th century BCE. From Exodus to Chronicles and in works of biblical interpretation through the Mishnah, this project explores how these writers reimagine the Ark to craft visions for their people’s future through their people’s past. The project is structured around five interrelated case studies from the Ark’s mnemohistory, considering different dimensions of cultural memory’s entanglement in material culture. Each case study draws upon and enriches text-, source-, and redaction-critical approaches, investigating the growth and reshaping of biblical writings as creative memory work.

The UCL Department of Hebrew and Jewish Studies is a wonderful place to work in, where excellent research is carried out and where we are glad to welcome, every year, new and old cohorts of students.

Lesson 4 - Numbers 3
Lesson 4 - Numbers 3 NUMBERS Lesson 4 - Chapter 3 Verse 11 begins a fascinating divine instruction that is almost lost to both Christianity and Judaism. This is an instruction that I stated to you last week, and told you we'd get it into a little more later.....so here we are. And, the instruction takes place in verses 11-13; it is that the Levites are to REPLACE the first-born of the other tribes of Israel. That is, whereby God, in some special way, regarded all the firstborn males of the tribes of Israel as special and set- apart for Him......a kind of ownership or adoption by God.....NOW He has taken the Levites, in total, as His own in substitute of all the firstborns of Israel. That special status of Israelite firstborns, as over and above the firstborns of other nations, came about in Exodus 13:1, when the firstborns of Israel were commemorated to God as a remembrance of their Passover salvation. Last week we discussed that a Biblical principle is that all firstborns (or better, firstlings because it applies to humans, animals, and plants), the first of everything, belongs to God. This does NOT just apply to Israel but to everybody, at least all who worship the God of Israel. And we saw this principle applied in Egypt when Yehoveh killed all the firstborn of humans and animals among households that didn't protect those firstborns by painting the blood of a yearling Ram on the doorposts of their homes (the first Passover). Yet just as Israel as a whole was God's set apart people, so all the firstborns of Israel held a special status above the firstborns of gentiles.

Unsolved Mysteries of the Bible Lesson 2 Bellevue Church of Christ March 13, 2019
Unsolved Mysteries of the Bible Lesson 2 Bellevue Church of Christ March 13, 2019 Lesson 2 – What Time of Year was Jesus Born? Background The birth of Christ has become synonymous with Christmas on December 25. Whether you’re listening to carols or looking at nativity scene imagery, the idea that Christmas is the date of the birthday of Jesus is everywhere. But is this popular belief true to history? Why is this unsolved? The nativity accounts in the gospels of Matthew and Luke do not mention a date or time of year for the birth of Jesus and these details are also not included in any historical reference. What evidence do we have in scripture? Shepherds Were in the Fields Watching Their Flocks at the Time of Jesus’ Birth: Luke 2:7–9 (ESV) 7 And she gave birth to her firstborn son and wrapped him in swaddling cloths and laid him in a manger, because there was no place for them in the inn. 8 And in the same region there were shepherds out in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night. 9 And an angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were filled with great fear. One argument is that shepherds would not have been in the fields at night during December, and therefore Jesus must have been born in summer or early fall. This argument states that because Judea is cold and rainy in December, it is likely the shepherds would have sought shelter for their flocks at night (See commentary from Adam Clarke in attached notes).
