  • Notes on Amos 202 1 Edition Dr
    Notes on Amos 202 1 Edition Dr. Thomas L. Constable TITLE AND WRITER The title of the book comes from its writer. The prophet's name means "burden-bearer" or "load-carrier." Of all the 16 Old Testament writing prophets, only Amos recorded what his occupation was before God called him to become a prophet. Amos was a "sheepherder" (Heb. noqed; cf. 2 Kings 3:4) or "sheep breeder," and he described himself as a "herdsman" (Heb. boqer; 7:14). He was more than a shepherd (Heb. ro'ah), though some scholars deny this.1 He evidently owned or managed large herds of sheep, and or goats, and was probably in charge of shepherds. Amos also described himself as a "grower of sycamore figs" (7:14). Sycamore fig trees are not true fig trees, but a variety of the mulberry family, which produces fig-like fruit. Each fruit had to be scratched or pierced to let the juice flow out so the "fig" could ripen. These trees grew in the tropical Jordan Valley, and around the Dead Sea, to a height of 25 to 50 feet, and bore fruit three or four times a year. They did not grow as well in the higher elevations such as Tekoa, Amos' hometown, so the prophet appears to have farmed at a distance from his home, in addition to tending herds. "Tekoa" stood 10 miles south of Jerusalem in Judah. Thus, Amos seems to have been a prosperous and influential Judahite. However, an older view is that Amos was poor, based on Palestinian practices in the nineteenth century.

  • A Theological Reading of the Gideon-Abimelech Narrative
    YAHWEH vERsus BAALISM A THEOLOGICAL READING OF THE GIDEON-ABIMELECH NARRATIVE WOLFGANG BLUEDORN A thesis submitted to Cheltenham and Gloucester College of Higher Education in accordance with the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Faculty of Arts & Humanities April 1999 ABSTRACT This study attemptsto describethe contribution of the Abimelech narrative for the theologyof Judges.It is claimedthat the Gideonnarrative and the Abimelechnarrative need to be viewed as one narrative that focuseson the demonstrationof YHWH'S superiority over Baalism, and that the deliverance from the Midianites in the Gideon narrative, Abimelech's kingship, and the theme of retribution in the Abimelech narrative serve as the tangible matter by which the abstracttheological theme becomesnarratable. The introduction to the Gideon narrative, which focuses on Israel's idolatry in a previously unparalleled way in Judges,anticipates a theological narrative to demonstrate that YHWH is god. YHwH's prophet defines the general theological background and theme for the narrative by accusing Israel of having abandonedYHwH despite his deeds in their history and having worshipped foreign gods instead. YHWH calls Gideon to demolish the idolatrous objects of Baalism in response, so that Baalism becomes an example of any idolatrous cult. Joash as the representativeof Baalism specifies the defined theme by proposing that whichever god demonstrateshis divine power shall be recognised as god. The following episodesof the battle against the Midianites contrast Gideon's inadequateresources with his selfish attempt to be honoured for the victory, assignthe victory to YHWH,who remains in control and who thus demonstrateshis divine power, and show that Baal is not presentin the narrative.

  • Gideon the Fearful
    LESSON FIVE LESSON NOTES FOR STD VI JOSHUA AND THE JUDGES. – Gideon the Fearful AIM : General: 1) To tell the story of the call of Gideon: the raids of the Midianites; the angel appearing to Gideon, his hesitant and fearful response; the food offering which is burnt; destruction of Baal's altar; the laying of the fleece. 2) To dwell on Gideon's fear and timidity; how God encouraged him, strengthened him and gave him faith. Personal: To encourage the children to draw on the power of the Holy Spirit when they feel afraid or timid to do what God asks of them. STARTER: 'The Turning Wheel' Puzzle (10mins) (First explain the puzzle to the children and then let them do it in pairs. It is better to give each child a copy, to keep as a record. Instruct them as follows: 1. Fill in the missing words in the wheel- the 5 stages. 2. In each grid, start in the place shown and go in a continuos line, as indicated by the arrows. Fill in the names, as you find them, in the space given below. The first letter of each name is given to help you. 3. Try and memories the names - a prize will be given to anyone who can remember the most names. (After the puzzle is over let the children attempt to name as many as possible. (all papers should be put away). Do not spend more than 3 minutes on this.) INPUT: (20mins) Today we are going to read how God called another man to be a 'judge' to, help his people in their difficulties.

Preliminary exegetical research has revealed many connections between the three chapters. For instance, the occurs 17 times (versus four times in the rest of Zechariah).

  • Gideon a Brave Deliverer Judges 6:12 Introduction I. Accept the Call
    051809 God’s Superhero’s – Gideon A Brave Deliverer Judges 6:12 Introduction During the time of the Judges the people of Israel would come to the place where they could no longer tolerate their circumstances, so they would cry out to God for help. God would again and again come to their rescue and deliver them. It is a story we all can identify with. This time Israel had enjoyed forty years of prosperity and once again they had become self sufficient and self centered. The people had returned to worshipping idols --the one thing that always seemed to be their final downfall. So God allows the Midianites to oppress Israel for seven years. The Midianites were very oppressive and confiscated the crops and herds and destroyed what they didn’t take. The people hid in fear whenever they would come to pillage their villages. To demonstrate His compassion to save Israel, God chooses the least likely candidate to become their leader. His task is to defeat the armies of the Midianites. The story of Gideon demonstrates how God can take a person with very little faith and turn them into great faith warrior that overcomes oppressive circumstances. In our lesson today we see Gideon questioning God about His compassion. He basically asks, "Where are You God? All I know about You is what I’ve heard through the hand me down legends of events that occurred years ago. But what have You done lately?” Let’s read our text today beginning with Judges Chapter 6 verse 1 (Read Text) What a great story of bravery and deliverance.

  • Ethical Implications of the Collusion of Prophets and Priests in Micah 3:5–7, 111
    630 Boloje, “Trading Yahweh’s Word,” OTE 31/3 (2018): 630-650 Trading Yahweh’s Word for a Price: Ethical Implications of the Collusion of Prophets and Priests in Micah 3:5–7, 111 BLESSING ONORIODE BOLOJE (UNIVERSITY OF PRETORIA) ABSTRACT Trading Yahweh’s word for a price is an attempt to articulate the implications of the mercenary attitude of prophets and priests in Micah 3:5–7, 11, in discharging their duties as religious functionaries. The article examines Micah’s indictment of charismatic and cultic Judeans’ self-centred leadership in commercialising Yahweh’s word. This exploration is done against the background of the functions and responsibility of prophets and priests in the HB/OT. Prophets and priests both functioned in the religion of Ancient Israel and Judah as channels for the transmission of Yahweh’s word to their people and nation. However, Micah presents a charismatic and cultic Judean leadership that was bereft of ethical standards of responsibility, reliability, constancy and integrity. Rather than embodying ethical character that could inspire confidence and commitment, they traded Yahweh’s word for symbols of wealth and power and thus became stumbling blocks to genuine orthodoxy. Such attempts to lower the standard of God’s demand on people so as to gratify oneself in a religious function that is designed to embody integrity, honesty, reliability and accountability constitute an affront to Yahweh. Additionally, it is an abuse of privilege and position, and amounts to religious deception and economic idolatry and creates a false sense of security. KEYWORDS: Micah, prophets and priests, inverted oracles and commercialised teachings, Yahweh’s word, wealth and power, economic idolatry.

Week One I am Jonah Day 1 I Am Jonah “The word of the Lord came to Jonah the son of Amittai saying.” Jonah 1:1 I am Jonah. I want to serve God … as long as it is convenient. I desire to do His will … until it is a tad uncomfortable. I want to hear His Word … as long as its message is one I’m supposed to pass on to someone else. I don’t want to have my plans interrupted. Oh yes. I am Jonah, and I suspect that in one way or another, you are too. The story of Jonah has been a tale too extravagant and too outlandish for many people to believe as truth. They can’t wrap their minds around the storm, the big fish, the city’s revival, the sun, the east wind, and the plant that all play a role in this compelling narrative. Were it not for my own firm belief in the inerrancy and validity of Scripture, I might doubt its veracity as well. Yet with all its unique qualities, I am drawn to the prophet and his true-life saga for one critical reason: Jonah was the only prophet who ever ran from God.

This reading plan will guide you through the minor prophets The plan provides you a devotional thought and Scripture reading for each day of the week. On the weekends, we suggest that you catch up on any missed reading from that week or reread the Scripture passages that you have been working through during the past week. To receive email updates when devotionals are added to the blog, go to www.mbbc.org/blog, click on “Subscribe to Mountain Brook Blog by Email” and follow the instructions.
