  • GREETINGS to EDITOR EMERITUS DR SHIMON BAKON on HIS 100Th BIRTHDAY
    NEWS OF THE JEWISH BIBLE ASSOCIATION GREETINGS TO EDITOR EMERITUS DR SHIMON BAKON ON HIS 100th BIRTHDAY Dr. Shimon Bakon began his association with The Jewish Bible Quarterly in 1975 with Volume 4:2, when he joined the Editorial Board of the journal then known as Dor leDor. He was appointed Assistant Editor in 1976, starting with Volume 4:3, and Associate Editor in 1978, starting with Volume 7:1. He was appointed Editor in 1987, starting with Volume 16:2, and was Editor for 25 years until 2012. Born in Czechoslovakia, he attended the Jewish high school in Brno, received private tutoring in Talmud from his father, and in 1939 earned a Ph.D. in philosophy at Masaryk University. After reaching the United States, he studied for three years at Yeshiva Torah Vodaath in Brooklyn. In January 1942, he joined the U.S. Army, served with distinction in North Africa and Italy, and received an Honorable Discharge in 1945. Thereafter, he took a post-doctoral fellowship in philosophy at Columbia University in New York, and went on to be director of Jewish education first in Bridgeport, Connecticut, and then in Springfield, Massachusetts. In Springfield, he was instrumental in establishing a branch of Boston Hebrew College, and for more than 10 years served as its administrator and lecturer in Jewish Philosophy. In 1974, he made aliya to Israel with his wife and children, and soon after began his association with this journal. The directors of the Jewish Bible Association and the Editorial Board of The Jewish Bible Quarterly extend their greetings and blessings Dr.

  • Armageddon: Raging Battle for Bible History
    ARMAGEDDON: RAGING BATTLE FOR BIBLE HISTORY WALTER ZANGER Two powers dominated the ancient Middle East at the dawn of history 5000 years ago. To the north was the wide crescent plain of the Tigris and Euphrates river valleys. That was Mesopotamia, “between the rivers.” There rose Sumer, earliest of the ancient kingdoms, to be followed by Assyria and Babylonia, and the city-states of the Arameans. To the south lay Egypt, a country 1000 miles long and as many feet wide, straddling another great river, the Nile. These two centers of power knew each other well, traded with each other, and sometimes fought with each other. Here we meet an inexorable fact of geogra- phy, as valid today as it was 5000 years ago: in order to get from Egypt to Me- sopotamia you have to go right through the Land of Israel. In later years, histo- rians called the road between north and south, between Egypt and Mesopotamia, the Via Maris – the Way of the Sea. The road left the Nile Delta, followed the Mediterranean coast at the north edge of the Sinai, entered Canaan at Gaza, then headed inland, north along the length of the country. Mount Carmel was a formidable obstacle, however; com- ing down southeast from where the city of Haifa now stands, the mountain blocks the plain on which the road had gone. You can go around Mount Carmel if you choose to hug the Mediterranean coast, but most traffic sought out one of the mountain passes to get through it. There was a pass on the north, where the biblical city of Yokneam still guards the road.

Jews had come to visit, but developers did not encourage settlement. Nevertheless, the first Jewish wedding took place on August 24, 1974. The marriage of Cosimo and Deborah Urato was officiated by retired army chaplain, Rabbi Norman Goldberg, and the largest gathering of Jews to date was recorded at the Hilton Head Inn. By the end of the 1970s Jewish settlers did not know whether there were any others here. Some were reluctant to be publicly recognized as Jews and, although they did not deny their faith, neither did they display a mezuzah or other symbol of Jewishness. Nonetheless, thirty people gathered for a Passover dinner in 1979, and the seeds of a Jewish association were sowed. Knowing that there were Jews living in Sea Pines and concerned that there was no synagogue on Hilton Head, the pastor of Christ Lutheran Church voiced this concern to his neighbors and friends, Sue and Hank Noble. In 1980 a notice was placed in the Island Packet inviting all Jews in the area to share a Rosh Hashanah dinner at Christ Lutheran Church.

Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary has permission to reproduce and disseminate this document in any form by any means for purposes chosen by the Seminary, including, without limitation, preservation or instruction. א שֵֽ ֵֽת־חַ֭ יִלֵֽמִ ִ֣ יֵֽיִמְצָָ֑אֵֽוְרָ ח ֹ֖קֵֽמִפְנִינִִ֣יםֵֽמִכְרָ ּה׃ֵֽ To Kimberly ABSTRACT SHOFAR, SALPINX, AND THE SILVER TRUMPETS: THE PURSUIT FOR BIBLICAL CLARITY The trumpet is the most mentioned instrument in the Old and New Testaments. However, because of the lack of specificity in translation, the word “trumpet” in the Bible is oftentimes assumed to be shofar in its derivation when it may be chatsoserot (silver trumpets) or even salpinx (Greek New Testament trumpet). This generalization may lead from mere confusion to full doctrinal misconceptions. This study seeks to clarify these misunderstandings by examining the different trumpets in Scripture: the shofar, the chatsoserot, and the salpinx. I will use this examination to argue that the shofar, though lauded by both Jews and Christians, is not a sacred instrument according to the Bible, but that the chatsoserot was, and the salpinx will be. Furthermore, I demonstrate that the shofar’s now sanctified existence is ostensibly talmudic. After an introductory chapter, chapter 2 details that the shofar currently has an inordinate amount of prestige among both the Jewish people and charismatic Christians.
