  • The Book of Hebrews: Part 1 of 4 Lecture Video Transcription by Dr
    The Book of Hebrews: Part 1 of 4 Lecture Video Transcription By Dr. D.A. Carson Research Professor of New Testament, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School In a book this long, transparently, we can’t go through every paragraph, every verse, so we're going to focus on certain crucial passages and to catch the flow of the argument through the book, the analytical outline will be a huge help. So what do we make of this book? Its readers, transparently, were an assembly, a congregation, or possibly more than one congregation, of Christians who at one time had been under persecution, but for whom the persecution had lightened up in more recent times. There is a considerable dispute in the commentaries as to whether these are Jewish Christians or gentile Christians. If they are Jewish Christians, they are Jewish Christians who are tempted to return to the social safety of their own Jewish communities, regaining the synagogue practices – or if they’re living anywhere near the temple, the temple practices – and so forth that were once at the heart of their religious life, but which in some measure they abandoned as Christians. Now they're tempted to return to them and the author sees this as a defection from the faith. Alternatively, if they are gentile Christians, they’re gentile Christians who are attracted beyond Christianity to a kind of Jewish form of Christianity taking on Jewish practices especially connected with the temple. In my view the former analysis squares with the facts a little better, but it won't make much difference to the overall argument of the book.

    MYANMAR BUDDHISM OF THE PAGAN PERIOD (AD 1000-1300) BY WIN THAN TUN (MA, Mandalay University) A THESIS SUBMITTED FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY SOUTHEAST ASIAN STUDIES PROGRAMME NATIONAL UNIVERSITY OF SINGAPORE 2002 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to express my gratitude to the people who have contributed to the successful completion of this thesis. First of all, I wish to express my gratitude to the National University of Singapore which offered me a 3-year scholarship for this study. I wish to express my indebtedness to Professor Than Tun. Although I have never been his student, I was taught with his book on Old Myanmar (Khet-hoà: Mranmâ Râjawaà), and I learnt a lot from my discussions with him; and, therefore, I regard him as one of my teachers. I am also greatly indebted to my Sayas Dr. Myo Myint and Professor Han Tint, and friends U Ni Tut, U Yaw Han Tun and U Soe Kyaw Thu of Mandalay University for helping me with the sources I needed. I also owe my gratitude to U Win Maung (Tampavatî) (who let me use his collection of photos and negatives), U Zin Moe (who assisted me in making a raw map of Pagan), Bob Hudson (who provided me with some unpublished data on the monuments of Pagan), and David Kyle Latinis for his kind suggestions on writing my early chapters. I’m greatly indebted to Cho Cho (Centre for Advanced Studies in Architecture, NUS) for providing me with some of the drawings: figures 2, 22, 25, 26 and 38.
