New Testament, DASV, Digital American Standard Version 1 The New Testament Digital American Standard Version [DASV] This is a project of Dr. Ted Hildebrandt, Gordon College, 255 Grapevine Rd. Wenham, MA 01984 USA [[email protected]] It is copyrighted with the Library of Congress, USA © 2010, Ted Hildebrandt It was developed based on the American Standard Version (ASV) of 1901. All users have permission to use this version of the Bible for their own purposes hopefully consistent with the realization that the Scriptures are revelation of God's most holy Word. I have sought to use the digital medium--text, audio, visual--to communicate God's Word freely in a digital and globally networked environment making my explorations available to anyone for the glory of God and the good of those seeking own spiritual development or helping others. Please feel absolutely free to use the DASV in new projects harnessing the digital medium in new creative expressions of the Word of God. This project owes its origins to my students Maggie Austen and Katie Moss. Thanks for helping me to see. It is dedicated to my grandfather Alex Affleck and my late father Ted Hildebrandt who instilled in me a love for God's word and my mother Elaine Hildebrandt who has proof read this and encouraged me over a lifetime of service, with thanks to God for my wife, Annette and my children, Rebekah and Ben, Natanya, Zach, Elliott all gifts and true to their names. 2 LINKED TABLE OF CONTENTS DASV: New Testament Control + Click jump using link to book Do the same on any chapter title to return to this Linked Table of Contents Matthew Ephesians Hebrews Mark Philippians James Luke Colossians 1 Peter John 1 Thessalonians 2 Peter Acts 2 Thessalonians 1 John Romans 1 Timothy 2 John 1 Corinthians 2 Timothy 3 John 2 Corinthians Titus Jude Galatians Philemon Revelation 3 Matthew 1 DASV: Digital American Standard Version Matthew 1 1 The record of the genealogy of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham. 2 Abraham was the father of Isaac, and Isaac the father of Jacob, and Jacob the father of Judah and his brothers, 3 and Judah the father of Perez and Zerah by Tamar, and Perez the father of Hezron, and Hezron the father of Ram, 4 and Ram the father of Amminadab, and Amminadab the father of Nahshon, and Nahshon the father of Salmon, 5 and Salmon the father of Boaz by Rahab, and Boaz the father of Obed by Ruth, and Obed the father of Jesse, 6 and Jesse the father of David the king. David was the father of Solomon by Uriah's wife, 7 and Solomon the father of Rehoboam, and Rehoboam the father of Abijah, and Abijah the father of Asa, 8 and Asa the father of Jehoshaphat, and Jehoshaphat the father of Joram, and Joram the father of Uzziah, 9 and Uzziah the father of Jotham, and Jotham the father of Ahaz, and Ahaz the father of Hezekiah, 10 and Hezekiah the father of Manasseh, and Manasseh the father of Amon, and Amon the father of Josiah, 11 and Josiah the father of Jechoniah and his brothers, at the time of the deportation to Babylon. 12 After the exile to Babylon, Jechoniah was the father of Shealtiel, and Shealtiel the father of Zerubbabel, 13 and Zerubbabel the father of Abiud, and Abiud the father of Eliakim, and Eliakim the father of Azor; 14 and Azor the father of Zadok, and Zadok the father of Achim, and Achim the father of Eliud, 15 and Eliud the father of Eleazar, and Eleazar the father of Matthan, and Matthan the father of Jacob, 16 and Jacob the father of Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ. 17 So all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations, and from David to the exile to Babylon fourteen generations, and from the deportation to Babylon to the Christ fourteen generations. 18 Now the birth of Jesus Christ took place like this. When his mother Mary had been engaged to Joseph, before they came together, she was found to be with child from the Holy Spirit. 4 Matthew 1 19 Joseph, her fiancé, being a righteous man, and not willing to shame her in public, considered breaking off the engagement privately. 20 But when he thought about these things, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, "Joseph, son of David, do not fear to take Mary as your wife, because that which is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit. 21 She will give birth to a son, and you will call his name 'Jesus,' for he will save his people from their sins." 22 Now all this happened that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying, 23 "Look, the virgin will be with child, and will bring forth a son, and they will call his name Immanuel," which means, "God with us." 24 Joseph woke up from his sleep, and did as the angel of the Lord commanded him and took her as his wife, 25 but he had no marital relations with her until she had given birth to a son, and he called his name Jesus. 5 Matthew 2 Matthew 2 1 Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of Herod the king, at that time, wise men from the east came to Jerusalem, saying, 2 "Where is he who is born King of the Jews? for we saw his star rising in the eastern sky, and are come to worship him." 3 When Herod the king heard it, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him. 4 Gathering together all the chief priests and experts in the law of the people, he asked them where the Christ should be born. 5 They said to him, "In Bethlehem of Judea, for so it is written through the prophet, 6 'And you Bethlehem, in the land of Judah, are in no wise least among the princes of Judah; for out of you will come a governor, who will be shepherd over my people Israel.'" 7 Then Herod secretly called the wise men, and learned from them exactly what time the star appeared. 8 He sent them to Bethlehem, and said, "Go and search diligently for the young child; and when you have found him, bring me word, that I also may come and worship him." 9 They, having heard the king, went their way; and the star, which they saw rising in the eastern sky, went before them, till it came and stood over where the young child was. 10 When they saw the star, they were overwhelmed with joy. 11 They came into the house and saw the young child with Mary his mother; and they fell down and worshipped him. Opening their treasures, they gave him gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh. 12 After being warned by God in a dream that they should not return to Herod, they departed to their own country another way. 13 After they were gone, an angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream, saying, "Arise and take the young child and his mother, and flee into Egypt, and be there until I tell you; for Herod will seek the young child to destroy him." 14 He arose and took the young child and his mother by night, and left for Egypt. 15 He was there until the death of Herod; that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying, "Out of Egypt I called my son." 16 Then Herod, when he saw that he was tricked by the wise men, was very angry, and sent and slew all the male children in Bethlehem, and in all its borders, from two years old and under, according to the exact time which he had learned from the wise men. 17 Then was fulfilled that which was spoken through Jeremiah the prophet, saying, 6 Matthew 2 18 "A voice was heard in Ramah, weeping and great mourning, Rachel weeping for her children; and she would not be comforted, because they were gone." 19 But after Herod died, an angel of the Lord appeared in a dream to Joseph in Egypt, saying, 20 "Get up and take the young child and his mother, and go into the land of Israel, for they are dead who sought the young child's life." 21 So he got up and took the young child and his mother, and returned to the land of Israel. 22 But when he heard that Archelaus was reigning over Judea in place of his father Herod, he was afraid to go there. Being warned of God in a dream, he withdrew into the region of Galilee. 23 He went and dwelt in a city called Nazareth, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through the prophets, that he would be called a Nazarene. 7 Matthew 3 Matthew 3 1 In those days John the Baptist came preaching in the wilderness of Judea, saying, 2 "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is near." 3 For this is the one who was spoken of by Isaiah the prophet, saying, "The voice of one crying in the wilderness, prepare the way of the Lord, make his paths straight." 4 Now John wore clothes made of camel's hair, and a had leather belt around his waist. His food was locusts and wild honey. 5 Then the people of Jerusalem, all Judea, and all the region around the Jordan went out to him, 6 and they were baptized by him in the Jordan River, confessing their sins.

Much of the research that myself, Paul Younan and so many others have done is here, categorized conveniently by topic and issue. What Raphael though has also accomplished so expertly is to link these examples with a simple and unambiguous narrative style that leaves little doubt that the Peshitta Aramaic New Testament is in fact the original that Christians and Nazarene-Messianics have been searching for, for so long. The fact is, when Raphael decides to explore a topic, he is far from content in providing just a few examples and leaving the rest to the readers’ imagination. Instead, Raphael plumbs the depths of the Aramaic New Testament, and offers dozens of examples that speak to a particular type. Flip through the “split words” and “semi-split words” sections alone and you will see what I mean.

  • Book Reviews
    BOOK REVIEWS LAW AND NARRATIVE IN THE BIBLE: THE EVIDENCE OF THE DEUTERONOMIC LAWS AND THE DECALOGUE. By Calum M. Carmi- chael. Ithaca: Cornell University, 1985. Pp. 356. $35. This book should appeal to both legal historians and biblical scholars. Carmichael is professor of comparative literature and biblical studies at Cornell, and he has devoted many years to the study of Israel's legal traditions. To be sure, his research and publication have not followed conventional lines, and the thesis sustained here will not go unchallenged. Briefly, the proposition is that the laws in Deuteronomy and the Deca­ logue (only 30 pages are given specifically to the latter segment) have as their background or inspiration some incident in the biblical narrative rather than a specific historical situation in life which they are meant to address. "The laws in both Deuteronomy and the decalogue arise not as a direct, practical response to the conditions of life and worship in Israel's past, as is almost universally held, but from a scrutiny of historical records about these conditions. The link is between law and literary account, not between law and actual life" (17). This challenges the prevailing view that Israelite law, in both its apodictic and casuistic forms, laid down rules for the healthy and equi­ table functioning of a community settled in the land. It is precisely on this point, the relationship between formulated law and its antecedent cause, that the legal historian may have the decisive word, even allowing for the uniquely sacred character of biblical law and the narrative to which it is associated.

  • 2E Eschatology [PDF]
    5. The Ministerial Office I. Christ instituted one office in his church, the ministry of the gospel. 1. Christ assigned one task to his church: the office of preaching of the gospel. a) The one task given to the church is preaching the word and administering the sacraments. Mark 16:15 He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the good news to all creation.” Matthew 28:18-20 Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” Matthew 26:26-28 While they were eating, Jesus took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to his disciples, saying, “Take and eat; this is my body.” 27Then he took the cup, gave thanks and offered it to them, saying, “Drink from it, all of you. 28 This is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins.” John 20:21-23 Again Jesus said, “Peace be with you! As the Father has sent me, I am sending you.” 22 And with that he breathed on them and said, “Receive the Holy Spirit. 23 If you forgive anyone his sins, they are forgiven; if you do not forgive them, they are not forgiven.” Acts 1:8 You will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.

DrfilnTT ICHOOL I T is now coming to be more and more admitted that the I Biblical identification of Jerusalem with the seat of the future Paradise had ita roots in primitive Semitic con­ ceptions which were also common to the Hebrew people.1 In describing the reign of the righteous king to come, Isaiah (116ft.) paints in idyllic terms the return of Paradise lost to earth ; peace will prevail among beasts, and between them and man.1 Even if v. 9 be, with Duhm and others, a later addition, nev.erthele88 the limitation of the new con­ ditions to Yahwe's "holy mount" is doubtless correct exe­ gesis ; Isaiah's Messiah is to rule over his own people, while the rest of the world appears to be ignored (cf. 9 tft.). Another set of references may at first sight appear to be alien, namely those which prospect the future exaltation of Zion, so that it will tower above the mountains, or even be the sole peak in the world. The first canonical reference is Isa. 2 2 ( = Mic. 4 t) : "And it will be in the last days: Established will be the mount of Yahwe on (as?) the top of the mountains, and it will be lifted up higher than (the) hills." a Likewise Ezekiel, in his last vision, is brought to 1 8ee A.

  • “Prophecy Is Another Divine Stamp of Authenticity”
    Grace Bible Church Pastor Robert R. McLaughlin Tree Of Life Week Ending 5-30-2021 “Prophecy Is Another Divine Stamp Of Authenticity” This week we are continuing our study of Prophecy which is undertaken in support to the study of the Rapture which will resume very soon when the Lord restores Pastor McLaughlin to full health so that he can return to the pulpit. God’s plan is perfect, His timing is perfect. Thank you all for your patience and faithfulness as we press on toward the goal and supply sound bible teaching to the hungry. In this lesson: -Purpose of prophecy -Value of studying prophecy -Prophecy #3 – Jesus would be forsaken by disciples (Zec 13:7) -The sin of fear and God’s solution -Prophecy #4 – The price of betrayal (Zec 11:12) -Background and significance of 30 shekels -Prophecy #5 – The potter’s field (Zech 11:13) -Akeldama aka the field of blood As we start to turn the page from Our current study of Dispensations, the subject of the Rapture, until Our Pastor gets back with us; it has led us to look at Prophecy and some of the Messianic prophecies that where fulfill, and more yet to be fulfill following the Rapture. We will be seeing the importance that Prophecy plays in Scripture. Prove the Truth of Christianity, which is ultimately our Hope & Faith in Him. Today we hear many people get excited and become captivated by the subject of Prophecy; however, many are led away by false doctrine, people with mystical revelations, and unprepared teachers that do not correctly interpret the Prophecies and Why we have them.

  • Aramaic and Hebrew the Languages Spoken in Judea During the 1St Century AD Dnd Heb
    1 Aramaic and Hebrew The Languages spoken in Judea during the 1st century AD Dnd Heb "Shema Yisrael Adonai Eloheinu Adonai Echad", Deuteronomy 6, 4 By Camilo Ezagui Menashe, studious of the Jewish roots of Christianity and Pilgrims Guide in Israel. Hebrew is one of several northwestern Semitic languages such as Phoenician, Moabite and Amonean wich all share strong influences of Canaanite. We know that the Old Testament (Torah or Pentateuch) of the Bible was originally written in archaic Hebrew using the characters of the Phoenician Alphabet. The Torah or Pentateuch of the Bible In the second book of Kings, chap. 18, 26 and in the Book of the Prophet Isaiah chap. 36, 11 (8th century BCE) there is a clear mention about the difference between Aramaic and the language spoken in Judea at the time of the Sanaquerib invasion when the advisers of King Hezekiah in Jerusalem told the emissary of the king of Assyria: "Please speak to your servants in Aramaic, for we understand it; do not speak to us in the Judaean language within earshot of the people on the ramparts."... 2 Ancient Hebrew writting of the 10TH century BCE Khirbet Qeiyafa Ostracon - Mibtzar Haela On returning to Judea from the Babylonian Exile (6th century BCE) the "Targumim" in Aramaic were used to teach Torah to the people. The Hebrew alphabet adopted the square characters of the Caldean calligraphy. Five hundred years later things had changed, such that by the 1st century CE, Hebrew had already been spoken for a long time. Professor Sara Lipkin, a specialist in Hebrew, in her study: "The Hebrew, story in chapters" (1992) tells us that the archaic Hebrew of the Mikrá, spoken in the time of King Solomon as it appears in the Pentateuch, Chronicles and Prophets, was replaced about 300 years BCE by a spoken Hebrew using words, idioms, pronunciation and expressions somewhat different known as "Lashon Chazal" or the Language of the Sages.

    The Acts of the Apostles A Workbook Commentary Prepared by Gary Calton 5331 Landing Road Elkridge, Maryland 21075 This workbook uses the New International Version. The reason for this is that the NIV has been the largest selling version of the Scriptures since 1990. I recognize that there are errors within this translation, but all must agree that there are errors in any of the translations made by men. I personally use the NIV as another version with which to check the King James Version and the New American Standard Version, these being the versions I use as I preach and teach. I have not used the New American Standard Version as it has not gained wide acceptance although I believe it to be an excellent study Bible in modern English. I use these new translations because of my concern that those who read should understand what they read and not put their trust in me as I translate ancient English. Our schools become ever more lenient in their teaching of the English language and thus render the KJV an ancient version, much like the Latin that the Catholics once used. Regardless of your conviction on these matters, I pray that you will enjoy God's richest blessings as you study his word.
