For the protective cover the aquare lle “John the Baptist, the Voice in the Wilderness” by Gertraud Berger was used. Translator’s comment The translation of the spiritual messages adheres to the syntax of John the Baptist, wherever he is using an order of words varying from common Germa n sentence-structure. The term man stands for human being. The expression “man” refers to human nature and character, in all their material aspects of existence.

Palestine at the time of John the Baptist and Jesus. 4 PREFACE “ I say tell you, among those born of women no one is greater prophet than John.” (Luke 7,28) Almost exactly 2000 years ago a man was born in Jerusalem whose name holds an extraordinary significance in Christianity as well as in the Islamic world: Jochanan Ben Zechariah, John the Baptist. His birth, his life, and his death are surrounded by mystery. The New Testament and the Koran report about John the Baptist, but, nevertheless, leave him in a mysterious semi-darkness. The Gospels do mention the message of John the Baptist and his connection to Jesu s, but they leave many questions unanswered. Who was this ascetic, preacher, and popular hero really? How did he live? What was the mission he fulfilled? What were the reasons leading to his decapitation by Herod? Was he a member of the secret broth erhood of the Essenes or was he maybe the teacher of Jesus? These were the questions I was confronted with when, some years ago, I came into contact with the figure John the Baptist in an astounding way. They were remarkable phenomena, signs, and exper iences that led me to these questions. Shortly afterwards I encountered spiritual messages of John the Baptist and the Essenes. The poetry and the contents of these messages fascinated me. Nevertheless, it took considerable time of scrutiny and doubt, be fore I understood that the spiritual world is just as real as the world of matter. I learnt that the spirit of a Jesus or John is always present and working. Insights into the world of anthroposophy 1 as well as into the esoteric roots of the great rel igions helped me to further my understanding. At that time I knew almost nothing of the Essenes. About the life and work of John the Baptist I knew as much as any average -Christian. Full of inquisitiveness, I began my search. I wanted to discover if there is a connection regarding the contents between the spiritual messages of John the Baptist of today, and his biblical and historic mission of before. I asked myself if the spiritual messages of the Essenes harmonized with the ideas of the former brot herhood from the Dead Sea. 5 In the course of my studies of the Essenes this concurrence was quickly found, since there are the finds of scrolls of Qumran that reveal much to us about the world of this religious grouping at the time of Christ. During my research about the life and work of John the Baptist I soon had to recognize, however, that an overall view could only be attained by the collecting and sorting of many and small mosaic stones. I discovered more than I had hoped for. Only thus was it possible for me to throw light on the mysteries surrounding John the Baptist and to write his life anew. Yet, I found even more: Prophesies heralding the return of John the Baptist in an impressive way. My surprise was great, when I found out that thes e prophesies were in line with the spiritual messages received by John the Baptist and the Essenes. I became conscious that the existence of John the Baptist, his work of then, but also his future mission have to be seen in a far greater context than Ch ristian mankind is anticipating. Therefore this book is structured into two large circles of topics. While in parts I and II the historical and biblical life of John the Baptist and the Essenes are described, in parts III and IV the focus is on the pro phetic assertion of the return of John the Baptist, and on the spiritual messages that also herald a renewed return of the Baptist in the near future. 6 PART I JOHN THE BAPTIST HIS LIFE AND WORK WRITTEN ANEW 7 INTRODUCTION John the Baptist is one of the most outstanding personalities in the history of mankind. His work had great influence on the Christian churches and on the Islamic world. Christians venerate him as the precursor of Jesus Christ, Mu slims revere him as a great prophet. Despite of all adoration of John the Baptist, there is a veil of mystery surrounding his mission. So, even up to now, only fragments and clichés of his work are known. It is my intention to lift the veil in order to show the true course of his life, and to emphasize the complete impact of his mission, then and today. It is astounding that so little knowledge is gathered on such a central figure of the Bible. When I started to seek and research I encountered volumin ous material. Through the findings of the Dead Sea Scrolls in February 1947 knowledge on John the Baptist did not increase substantially. However, the background of his mission can be illuminated more clearly. Aside from the biblical texts and the Dead See Scrolls, therefore, other sources had to be opened to write the life and work of John the Baptist anew. Yet, I was always aware of the following: a man, a prophet did make history. His name and work remain unforgotten. His knowledge, his wisdom a nd teachings were significantly more encompassing than the Bible conveys to us. His charisma, his ability to move the men of his time, and the high esteem and veneration of his fellow - men were not only based on the few sentences cited in the New Testament . Alone, it must have been more that caused men in Palestine to cover long stretches afoot to hear his word. What abilities characterized the preacher? Who were his teachers? What were his conditions of life? And not lastly: what was his mission? 8 GENERAL PORTRAIT With John the Baptist the Old Testament ends; and; at the same time; the New Testament begins. He does not separate them, he connects them. For this it was necessary, however, to tear down the walls of the laws, rules, and r ituals of the Old Covenant; and to erect them anew through words and works in the essence of the coming Christian message of salvation. John the Baptist is referred to as the last Prophet of the Old Covenant. Due to his effective renewals of existing s tructures and exegeses Thomas Aquinus says in his major work Summa Theologica (1266/73): “John the Baptist was not only a prophet, but more than a prophet.” According to biblical sources John the Baptist was born six months before Jesus of Nazareth. According to the Evangelist Luke, Elizabeth was in her sixth month of pregnancy when Mary learnt of her own.

  • Most Common Jewish First Names in Israel Edwin D
    Names 39.2 (June 1991) Most Common Jewish First Names in Israel Edwin D. Lawson1 Abstract Samples of men's and women's names drawn from English language editions of Israeli telephone directories identify the most common names in current usage. These names, categorized into Biblical, Traditional, Modern Hebrew, and Non-Hebrew groups, indicate that for both men and women over 90 percent come from Hebrew, with the Bible accounting for over 70 percent of the male names and about 40 percent of the female. Pronunciation, meaning, and Bible citation (where appropriate) are given for each name. ***** The State of Israel represents a tremendous opportunity for names research. Immigrants from traditions and cultures as diverse as those of Yemen, India, Russia, and the United States have added their onomastic contributions to the already existing Jewish culture. The observer accustomed to familiar first names of American Jews is initially puzzled by the first names of Israelis. Some of them appear to be biblical, albeit strangely spelled; others appear very different. What are these names and what are their origins? Benzion Kaganoffhas given part of the answer (1-85). He describes the evolution of modern Jewish naming practices and has dealt specifi- cally with the change of names of Israeli immigrants. Many, perhaps most, of the Jews who went to Israel changed or modified either personal or family name or both as part of the formation of a new identity. However, not all immigrants changed their names. Names such as David, Michael, or Jacob required no change since they were already Hebrew names.

  • John the Baptist
    John the Baptist Author: Nathan Shedd Published: 16th January 2021 Nathan Shedd. 2021. "John the Baptist." In James Crossley and Alastair Lockhart (eds.) Critical Dictionary of Apocalyptic and Millenarian Movements. 15 January 2021. Retrieved from www.cdamm.org/articles/john-the-baptist. Introduction In the New Testament, John the Baptist (c. 6 BCE–30 CE) is remembered as a preacher of fiery judgment and as the forerunner of Jesus. He was associated with the wilderness and baptized his co-religionists in the Jordan River. His conflict with the Herodian family led to his execution by Herod Antipas sometime in the third or fourth decade of the first century ce. Modern historians typically conceptualize John as an ‘apocalyptic’ Jewish figure. This article is broken down into two parts. First, it underscores basic difficulties of constructing the historical John the Baptist. Second, it outlines the features of first-century traditions that could plausibly be understood as intersecting with first-century apocalyptic ideology. Coupled with the recognition that seemingly most claims regarding the historical John the Baptist are fiercely debated among scholars, the present discourse’s application of the terms ‘apocalyptic’ and ‘apocalypticism’ in reference to the Baptist is not intended to convey that the actual first-century figure operated with an apocalyptic outlook. Rather, the listings of traditions in the primary sources that depict John the Baptist are intended to underscore their conceivable points of overlap with apocalyptic frameworks of thought. The Sources and Their Problems Several complex issues confront the historian who endeavours to access the John the Baptist of history.

  • History of John the Baptist Preparation for Baptism the Mystery of Godliness a Crown of Righteousness
    HISTORY OF JOHN THE BAPTIST PREPARATION FOR BAPTISM THE MYSTERY OF GODLINESS A CROWN OF RIGHTEOUSNESS Sunday before Epiphany December 31, 2017 Revision B GOSPEL: John the Baptist’s Message: Prepare to be Baptized Eve of Sunday before Epiphany: Matthew 3:1-11 Sunday before Epiphany: Mark 1:1-8 EPISTLE: Eve of Sunday before Epiphany: 1 Timothy 3:14-4:5 Knowing the True Church Sunday before Epiphany: 2 Timothy 4:5-8 Goal: A Crown of Righteousness In the West, today’s Gospel reading from Matthew 3 is also used for the Sunday before Epiphany and sometimes for the Second Sunday in Advent. The Gospel reading from Mark 1 is occasionally also used for the Second Sunday in Advent. The Epistle readings from Timothy are not used in the West as often. When used, a portion of the 1 Timothy reading (3:14-17) is used for the Sunday before Advent and the 2 Timothy reading is used for the 25th Sunday after Pentecost. The theme for today is one of preparation for baptism, where baptism itself will be the theme of Epiphany. In addressing John’s preparation, we will use all four Gospel accounts together to piece together a history of the life of John. The Epistle lessons complement this by addressing three things one needs to know before being baptized: (1) What is one being baptized into? (2) How does one know the true church as opposed to some of the heresies current in the First Century? (3) What is the reward and what will it cost us? Gospels: History of John the Baptist The following account pieces together the life of John the Baptist from references in all four Gospels.

  • Hebrew Names and Name Authority in Library Catalogs by Daniel D
    Hebrew Names and Name Authority in Library Catalogs by Daniel D. Stuhlman BHL, BA, MS LS, MHL In support of the Doctor of Hebrew Literature degree Jewish University of America Skokie, IL 2004 Page 1 Abstract Hebrew Names and Name Authority in Library Catalogs By Daniel D. Stuhlman, BA, BHL, MS LS, MHL Because of the differences in alphabets, entering Hebrew names and words in English works has always been a challenge. The Hebrew Bible (Tanakh) is the source for many names both in American, Jewish and European society. This work examines given names, starting with theophoric names in the Bible, then continues with other names from the Bible and contemporary sources. The list of theophoric names is comprehensive. The other names are chosen from library catalogs and the personal records of the author. Hebrew names present challenges because of the variety of pronunciations. The same name is transliterated differently for a writer in Yiddish and Hebrew, but Yiddish names are not covered in this document. Family names are included only as they relate to the study of given names. One chapter deals with why Jacob and Joseph start with “J.” Transliteration tables from many sources are included for comparison purposes. Because parents may give any name they desire, there can be no absolute rules for using Hebrew names in English (or Latin character) library catalogs. When the cataloger can not find the Latin letter version of a name that the author prefers, the cataloger uses the rules for systematic Romanization. Through the use of rules and the understanding of the history of orthography, a library research can find the materials needed.

  • 1 Sermon Covenant Presbyterian Church December 16, 2018 Rev
    Sermon Covenant Presbyterian Church December 16, 2018 Rev. Zeta T. Lamberson Elizabeth Luke 1:39-58 Elizabeth is a very common name today. It is special to me because it was my mother’s middle name. We named our daughter Zeta Elizabeth and she in turn named her second child Kinsley Elizabeth. Of course there have been queens named Elizabeth since Queen Elizabeth I’s reign in the 16th century. And yet this week I discovered that there is only one person named Elizabeth in the Bible. We do find Elisheba - the Hebrew version of this name in the Old Testament once. She was the wife of Aaron but the only Elizabeth found in Scripture is here in the first chapter of Luke’s gospel. Her story is intertwined with her husband Zechariah’s story and Mary’s story. As we read this familiar account in Luke 1 it is so easy to jump ahead to Mary’s words that we know as the Magnificat but I want us to think a while today about Elizabeth and her experiences. They were different from Zechariah’s and Mary’s and yet they were still powerful and life changing for her. As a matter of fact the name Elizabeth in Greek means consecrated to God. And her life just as so many others have been for centuries was set apart for a sacred purpose. And yet her experiences were not as dramatic as Zechariah and Mary’s were. Think about it. The angel Gabriel appeared to her husband Zechariah and spoke clear words of instruction.

LESSON SIX WOMAN TWENTY Elisheba, the wife of Aaron The wife who grieved alone. I. Elisheba A. Elisheba (also Elisabeth and Elizabeth) various meanings are given for her name: "my God has sworn" or "God is an oath" or "the oath, or fullness, of God" or "God's oath" or " God is her oath". Although all of these are somewhat varied, they all echo much similarity. It is not an uncommon belief that her name has significance. Some believe it is in the following way. Lockyer stated "... this may be a allusion to the great promise to Abraham confirmed by the oath of God." He further states that "Wilkerson remarks that 'Perhaps the name was an appeal to that oath in the extremity of national depression and distress; for she must have been born towards the close of the bondage in Egypt, and about the time during which the cruel edict of Pharaoh for the destruction of male children was in operation.' " This could very well be. God had promised Abraham that He would bless them that bless Abraham and his posterity and curse them that curse Abraham and his posterity. (Gen 12:3; 17:7) The naming of Elisheba may very well have been in remembrance of the promise; and, on God's part He may have led her parents to choose that name because He knew, long before she was born, that it would be during her lifetime that He would deliver the People in partial fulfillment of His promise to Abraham and his posterity.

  • The Internal Consistency and Historical Reliability of the Biblical Genealogies
    Vetus Testamentum XL, 2 (1990) THE INTERNAL CONSISTENCY AND HISTORICAL RELIABILITY OF THE BIBLICAL GENEALOGIES by GARY A. RENDSBURG Ithaca, New York The general trend among scholars in recent years has been to treat the genealogies recorded in the Bible with an increased skep- ticism. Whereas past generations of scholars may have been ready to affirm the trustworthiness of at least some of the Israelite lineages, current research in this area has led to the opposite con- clusion. Provided with parallels both from ancient Near Eastern documents and from the sociological and anthropological study of tribal societies of the present, most scholars today contend that the biblical genealogies do not constitute a reliable source for the reconstruction of history.' The current approach is that the genealogies may retain some value for the reconstruction of political ties on a national or tribal level,2 but that in no way should they be taken at face value. This is especially true for those genealogies which purport to be from early Israelite times, such as the lineages of Moses or David. In the present article I will offer some evidence which, depending on how it is judged, may stem the tide described above. The approach to be taken will differ from recent work on the subject, in that it will adduce no external evidence from either ancient or modern times. Instead, I will concentrate on the genealogies them- selves, in particular those lineages of characters who appear in Exodus through Joshua. I anticipate one of the results of my analysis with the following statement: the genealogies themselves 1 See especially R.
