Robbins Degree Date: June 2009 ABSTRACT Jesus’ charge in Luke 22:35-38 that his apostles should buy swords is one of the most enigmatic texts in the gospels. Although previous studies made use of a wide range of standard critical methods, none of these approaches satisfactorily revealed the pericope’s meaning.

  • The New Exodus in Paul's Letter to the Galatians
    The New Exodus in Paul’s Letter to the Galatians David Galletta, B. Sc., M. Div., D. Min. Supervised by: Dr. Jenny Read-Heimerdinger, Director of Studies Dr. Kathy Ehrensperger, Second Supervisor This research was undertaken under the auspices of the Wales Evangelical School of Theology Submitted in partial fulfillment for the award of a degree of Ph. D. University of Wales Trinity Saint David 2016 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Writing a dissertation can be a very lonely experience, especially when done as a distance student. One lacks the camaraderie, intellectual stimulation, and all other benefits of the fellowship of scholars apart from an academic setting; also one cannot simply pop into one’s advisor’s office to chat. Although I know and am related to numerous people with the Ph. D. degree, there has been virtually no one with whom to speak about my topic in particular, as eyes quickly glaze over when a friend, relative, or acquaintance politely has asked me about the focus of my study. Yet a dissertation, at least in my experience, is not done truly alone. I have received good advice from many who have gone before me, and only wish I heeded most of what I heard. My team members and former supervisor prompted me to pursue the degree, and all having gone through the task, have been wonderfully sympathetic and supportive. I want to thank Dr. Frank van Dalen, former executive director of World Witness, the Foreign Missions Board of the Associate Reformed Presbyterian Church with whom I serve, as well as Mr. Alex Pettett, the current director.

  • Book of Enoch by R
    BOOK OF ENOCH BY R. ISHMAEL BEN ELISHA THE HIGH PRIEST CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION : R. Ishmael ascends to heaven to behold the vision of the Merkaba and is given in charge to Metatron : AND ENOCH WALKED WITH GOD AND HE WAS NOT ; FOR GOD TOOK HIM (Gen. v. 24) Rabbi Ishmael said : x (i) When I ascended on high to behold the vision of the Merkaba^ and had entered the six Halls, one within the other: (2) as soon as I reached the door of the seventh Hall I stood still in prayer before the Holy One, blessed be He, and, lifting up my eyes on high (i.e. " towards the Divine Majesty), I said : (3) Lord of the Universe, I pray i-i so DE. A: 'in my vision the Merkaba' Chh. i and ii. (Additional, see Introduction, section 7.) Chh. i and ii; which are not extant in BCL, form an introduction to the book, supplying the explanation of the frame of chh. iii-xlviii A, purporting to be revelations and communications given to R. Ishmael by Metatron-Enoch. By the present introductory chapters is indicated that the occasion of these revelations was Rabbi IshmaePs ascent to behold the vision of the Merkaba (the Divine Chariot). R. Ishmael's ascension to heaven and intercourse with Metatron, or the Prince of the Presence, forms an intrinsic part of the Legend of the Ten Martyrs, including the so-called Apocalyptic Fragment (BH. v. 167-169, vi. 19-35; Siddur R.

NEW YORK: THE MACMILLAN COMPANY 1918 Printed in G:?eat Britain by Richard Clay & Sons, Limited, brunswick st., stamford st., s.e. t, and bungay, suffolk. EDITORS' PREFACE The object of this series of translations is primarily to furnish students with short, cheap, and handy text-books, which, it is hoped, will facilitate the study of the particular texts in class under com- petent teachers. But it is also hoped that the volumes will be acceptable to the general reader who may be interested in the subjects with which they deal. It has been thought advisable, as a general rule, to restrict the notes and comments to a small compass ; more especially as, in most cases, excellent works of a more elaborate character are available. Indeed, it is much to be desired that these translations may have the effect of inducing readers to study the larger works.

  • 1 Why I Am Studying Kabbalah Rabbi Daniel
    Why I am studying Kabbalah Rabbi Daniel Cotzin Burg Parashat Lekh L’kha 10.28.17 ~ 8 Heshvan 5778 If you’ve been following the news this week, and who wants to anymore, you may have heard about Catalonia’s vote for independence and the constitutional crisis in Spain. What you may not know is that Catalonia, and particularly cities within it like Gerona and Barcelona was home to dozens of important Medieval Jewish teachers and thinkers. And not just Catalonia, but regions to the West like Castille and Leon and the South like Al-Andalus. Important Spanish rabbis include Avraham Ibn Ezra, Yehuda Ibn Tibon, Yehuda HaLevi, Nachmanides and, some would argue the greatest scholar since the biblical era, Moses Maimonides. There’s a medieval expression about Maimonides: “from Moses to Moses, there was no one like Moses.” Two giants you may or may not have heard of were contemporaries of the thirteenth century, though it’s not clear whether they ever met. One was Avraham Abulafia and the other Moshe de- Leon. De-Leon was primarily responsible for the central book of theosophical Kabbalah, the Holy Zohar. Jay Michaelson defines theosophy as “…having to do with knowledge, or wisdom, about the Divine, and so” he says, “theosophical Kabbalah explains, in great detail, the nature of the Godhead, the relationship of the Infinite to the Finite, and how this world came into being. Abulafia, on the other hand, was the chief architect of a different kind of Kabbalah which has been called ecstatic or philosophical. De-Leon remained in Central Spain while Abulafia migrated from Tudela to the Palestine and back to Barcelona.

Perrin, September 2013 McMaster University DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY (2013) Hamilton, Ontario (Religious Studies) TITLE: Dream-Visions in the Aramaic Dead Sea Scrolls: Shared Compositional Patterns and Concerns AUTHOR: Andrew B. Perrin, B.A. (Rocky Mountain College), M.A. (Trinity Western University) SUPERVISOR: Professor Daniel A. Machiela NUMBER OF PAGES: xii + 291 ii Abstract Twenty-nine of the some 900 fragmentary Scrolls recovered from the caves off the northwest shores of the Dead Sea were penned in the Aramaic language. It is generally agreed that this cross-section of Aramaic literature among the predominantly Hebrew collection derives from before and beyond the scribal community that lived at Qumran. Whether or not the Aramaic texts constitute a cohesive collection, however, is an ongoing debate. While their compositional origins are unknown, this dissertation avers that enough common traits exist among the Aramaic Dead Sea Scrolls to indicate an inherent unity in the group. Paramount among these traits is the pervasive usage of the dream-vision in a constellation of at least nineteen Aramaic writings. This study advances our understanding of the Aramaic texts by exploring the dream-vision as a literary convention from two interrelated perspectives. Part One maps out the major compositional patterns of dream-vision episodes across the collection.

Wprowadzenie Aktualny wciąż problem źródeł wiedzy i sposobów jej zdobywania ma nie- zwykle bogatą, bo sięgającą starożytności, tradycję filozoficzną. Platon podzielił wiedzę na episteme i doxa, co było ugruntowane ontologicznie istnieniem sfery idei i rzeczy. I tak, według ucznia Sokratesa, nasza wiedza może być przeświad- czeniem na temat świata widzialnego (doxa) lub po prostu wiedzą (episteme). 1 Platon był natywistą i twierdził, że wiedza jest uzyskiwana lub zdobywana za pośrednictwem procesu anamnezy, czyli przypomnienia sobie tego, co dusza za- pamiętała, przebywając w świecie idei. 2 Wyraźnie dostrzegał on problem w roz- różnieniu doxa od episteme, wskazując, że źródłem episteme musi być idealny świat idei. Jego uczeń Arystoteles nie poszedł śladami swojego mistrza i umieścił źró- dło poznania wiedzy w doświadczeniu — w kwestii genezy wiedzy był empiry- kiem. Jednakże koncepcję wiedzy budował na silnych założeniach racjonali- DR HAB. INŻ. MIROSŁAW RUCKI, PROF. UTH RADOM — Uniwersytet Technologiczno-Humani- styczny im.
