However, scholarship scarcely has treated the theme of νόμος, the Νόμος is .תורה Septuagintal word Luke uses as a translation of the Hebrew word mentioned four times in the Presentation narrative; it also is a word in Septuagintal Isaiah to which the metaphor of light in Luke 2:32 alludes. In 2:22-32—a pivotal piece within Luke-Acts—νόμος relates to several themes, including ones David Pao discusses in his study on Isaiah’s portrayal of Israel’s restoration, appropriated by Luke. My dissertation investigates, for the first time, the Septuagintal Isaian use of νόμος in this pericope. My thesis is that Luke’s use of νόμος in the Presentation pericope highlight’s Jesus’ identity as the Messiah who will restore and fulfill Israel.

  • An Examination of Isaiah 66:17
    Sometimes the Center is the Wrong Place to Be: An Examination of Isaiah 66:17 Kevin Malarkey Theology Given the Hebrew Bible as our only historical source, the period of the Israelites’ return to Judah and restoration of Jerusalem seems to be one of religious, social, and political anarchy; the Biblical record is wrought with historical lacunae and contradictions which ultimately leave us in the proverbial dark concerning the epoch.1 Historical-Biblical scholarship must, it appears, be content to do without a coherent and comprehensive narrative fully describing the repatriated Israelites’ situation. But, this is not to say that our knowledge of the period is wholly deficient; from a more studious examination of the texts we might be able to glean more than just isolated minutiae floating through the void. We can certainly assert that a portion of the exiled Israelites, the ones most interested in preserving their identity as specially chosen by God,2 would have adopted conservative attitudes regarding authentic religious worship. While some of the exiles may have made forays into religious syncretism and cultural assimilation (and most likely did, given the fact that some elected not to return to Palestine after Cyrus’ liberation), others refused acquiescence to such syncretism and assimilation on the grounds that authentic God-worship could not be genuinely undertaken in Babylon and should not be sullied by the taint of other gods. Indeed, a group of exiles did return to Jerusalem, intent on reestablishing authentic God- worship in the land and rebuilding the Temple in Jerusalem as the locale of this worship.

  • Isaiah 17:1 1 an Oracle Concerning Damascus: “See, Damascus Will No Longer Be a City but Will Become a Heap of Ruins
    Revelation Lesson 1 Handout Isaiah 17:1 1 An oracle concerning Damascus: “See, Damascus will no longer be a city but will become a heap of ruins. Once Syria’s largest city, Aleppo has been the worst-hit city in the country since the Battle of Aleppo began in 2012 as part of the ongoing Syrian Civil War. Now a series of before-and-after photos reveals just how much the once- vibrant historical city has been marred by war. 1 Ray Stedman in his book God’s Final Word says: It is no accident that the book of Revelation appears as the last book of the Bible. Revelation gathers all the threads of theme and historic events contained in the rest of the Bible, weaving them into a seamless whole. The entire scope of human history and of eternity itself comes into brilliant focused in the book of Revelation. 2 Revelation 1:3 Blessed is he who reads and those who hear the words of the prophecy, and heed the things which are written in it; for the time is near. J. Barton Payne’s Encyclopedia of Biblical Prophecy lists 1,239 prophecies in the Old Testament and 578 prophecies in the New Testament, for a total of 1,817.. • There would be “many nations” against Tyre (Ezekiel 26: 3) • Her walls and towers would be torn down (Ezekiel 26: 4) • Her soil would be scraped away and she would become a shining bare rock (Ezekiel 26: 4) • • Fishermen would use the area for drying nets (Ezekiel 26: 5) • Settlements in the countryside would be slaughtered (Ezekiel 26: 6) • • King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon would come against Tyre (Ezekiel 26: 7) • • He would lay siege and tear down Tyre’s walls and houses (Ezekiel 26: 12) 3 • Tyre’s stones, woodwork and soil would be thrown in the water (Ezekiel 26: 12) Bible prophecy: Isaiah 7:14 Prophecy written: Between 701-681 BC Prophecy fulfilled: About 5 BC Isaiah 7:14: Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign: The virgin will be with child and will give birth to a son, and will call him Immanuel.

    DAILY BREAD THE WORD OF GOD IN A YEAR By the late Rev. R. M. M’Cheyne, M.A. THE ADVANTAGES • The whole Bible will be read through in an orderly manner in the course of a year. • Read the Old Testament once, the New Testament and Acts twice. Many of you may never have read the whole Bible, and yet it is all equally divine.“All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, and instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be perfect.” If we pass over some parts of Scripture, we will be incomplete Christians. • Time will not be wasted in choosing what portions to read. • Often believers are at a loss to determine towards which part of the mountains of spices they should bend their steps. Here the question will be solved at once in a very simple manner. • The pastor will know in which part of the pasture the flock are feeding. • He will thus be enabled to speak more suitably to them on the sabbath; and both pastor and elders will be able to drop a word of light and comfort in visiting from house to house, which will be more readily responded to. • The sweet bond of Christian unity will be strengthened. • We shall often be lead to think of those dear brothers and sisters in the Lord, who agree to join with us in reading these portions. We shall more often be led to agree on earth, touching something we shall ask of God.

  • Isaiah Chapter 17
    Isaiah Chapter 17 “The burden of Damascus” refers to the capital city of Syria. This chapter is contemporaneous with (chapter 7), and predicts the downfall of the coalition between Syria and Ephraim. Tiglath- pileser of Assyria destroyed Damascus (in 732 B.C.), a fulfillment of this prophecy. Jacob shall be made thin refers to the famine that followed the devastation and deportation of the northern tribes by Sargon of Assyria (in 722. B.C.). Isaiah 17:1 "The burden of Damascus. Behold, Damascus is taken away from [being] a city, and it shall be a ruinous heap." This city served as the capital of Aram, or Syria. Its location northeast of Mt. Hermon on the main land route between Mesopotamia and Egypt made it very influential. Its destruction by the Assyrians (in 732 B.C.), is the subject of this chapter. This is just a prophecy from Isaiah that Damascus will be destroyed. Damascus was one of the earliest cities in the area. It was thought to be the earliest by many historians. The destruction will not be partial, but will be so terrible that nothing will be left of the city. Isaiah 17:2 "The cities of Aroer [are] forsaken: they shall be for flocks, which shall lie down, and none shall make [them] afraid." Aram’s or Syria’s domain extended as far south as Aroer east of the Dead Sea, on the Arnon River (2 Kings 10:32-33). The cities of Aroer are pretty hard to discover anything about. They were possibly, known by another name.

  • Rene's Presentation from February 28
    Helpful for reading Isaiah chapters 17 through 26: Mar 1 – Isaiah 17 – Damascus was city north of the Northern Kingdom (the northern half of the ancient nation we think of as ‘Israel’). Ephraim is another name for the Northern Kingdom, which will be conquered by Syria; chapter end with a reminder that the oppression will not last forever. Mar 2 – Isaiah 18 – Other nations are turning to the one true living God; notice the reference to the Nubians (African) as ‘tall’ and ‘smooth’ – no mention of skin color Isaiah 19 – Judah is shown to be on par with its powerful neighboring nations, Egypt and Assyria (so do not fear them) Mar 3 – Isaiah 20 – an ‘acted-out prophet sign’ meant to shock; common with other prophets, rare for Isaiah – Recall Isaiah’s main political message in chapter 7, verse 9: “If you do not stand firm in faith, you will not stand at all.” Isaiah is warning the people of God that they should not turn to the Egyptians due to their fear of Assyria – they should turn to God alone rather than thinking political alliances will bring more security. Isaiah 21 – the historical background is helpful here: Assyria is now threatening to be more powerful and Hezekiah wants to form an alliance with Egypt to get out of the Assyrian ‘client state’ arrangement set up by his father. • Isaiah says, “Don’t! Trust God’s word through me instead.” • God fends off the Assyrians and, again, all is looking well for Judah under Hezekiah (one of the most lauded kings of the People of God at the time).
