Nehemiah ben Shlomo ha-Navi’ MOSHE IDEL O WING TO RECENT STUDIES on Haside Ashkenaz, especially by Jo- seph Dan, and the publication of some of the Ashkenazi material from manuscripts, we have a better picture of the literature produced from the early decades of the thirteenth century.1 Of paramount importance to this literature is the distinction Dan drew between different schools emerging out of the Ashkenazi masters. He proposed to distinguish between the main line represented by the writings of the Kalonymite school of R. Yehudah he-Hasid and R. Eleazar of Worms, on the one hand, and the school, which he described as the ‘‘school of the special cherub,’’ on the other.2 In addition, he drew attention to, and eventually printed and ana- lyzed, material that did not belong to either of the two schools and is found in anonymous manuscripts.3 More recently, in an innovative article dealing with the occurrence of the syntagm ‘‘Yeshu‘a Sar ha-panim,’’ Yehudah Liebes has noted dispa- rate anonymous writings found mostly in manuscripts, which belong to an Ashkenazi school, that he called the ‘‘circle of Sefer ha-h. eshek.’’4 He 1.

  • Jeremiah 46-Ezekiel 11
    Jeremiah 46-Ezekiel 11: August 10: Jeremiah 46-48 1. Chapter 46 begins a section of judgments against the nations. What’s God’s message to Israel in this judgment (46:27-28)? 2. These chapters all predict horrific judgment against the nations. How would you respond to someone who claimed that such violence and judgment is immoral? Can God really be considered good when He unleashes so much death and destruction on innocent people? 3. Why is Moab judged? See 48:7, 26, 29, 42. Who brings the judgment, v. 44? August 11: Jeremiah 49-52 1. These chapters conclude the section on the judgment of the nations. In the midst of it, what promises does God make to His people in 50:20? 2. Against what nation does God announce judgment in chapter 51? Why would this be significant in light of Jeremiah’s overall message? Introduction to Lamentations: Author/Date: The book of Lamentations was written by the prophet Jeremiah, right around the time of Jerusalem’s destruction in 586 B.C. Jeremiah is known as the “weeping prophet,” for good reason, as this book shows. The city fell in July of the year 586, with the temple being destroyed a month later. Jeremiah would have watched as the Babylonians systematically destroyed the city, including the gates, walls, and the temple. Background: The events recorded in the book are quite jarring and graphic. It must be remembered, however, that Jerusalem’s destruction came after centuries of prophetic warning. Indeed, through Moses, God had promised judgment on His people if they broke covenant with Him (Deuteronomy 28-29).

  • Ezekiel Chapter 11
    Ezekiel Chapter 11 Ezekiel 11:1 "Moreover the spirit lifted me up, and brought me unto the east gate of the LORD'S house, which looketh eastward: and behold at the door of the gate five and twenty men; among whom I saw Jaazaniah the son of Azur, and Pelatiah the son of Benaiah, princes of the people." These 25 men were similar to the 25 priests and High Priest worshipping the sun god in chapter 8. They were actually supposed to be leaders of the people. They had led their people into the worship of a false god. Jaazaniah and Pelatiah were both princes, or leaders, in Jerusalem. They were probably, some of the ones that caused Jeremiah's problems. Ezekiel, though at the temple only in the vision, saw because God, who was everywhere present and all-knowing, impressed specific details on him in the vision. The wicked leaders were part of God’s reason for the judgment. Ezekiel was taken in spirit to the very place which the glory of God had left (in 10:19), and was given a vision of “twenty five men,” who represented, not priests, but influential leaders among the people, who gave fatal advice to the people (in verse 2). Ezekiel 11:2 "Then said he unto me, Son of man, these [are] the men that devise mischief, and give wicked counsel in this city:" There is nothing eviller than a wicked ruler, who leads others into their sin. Their counsel was evil. They were the blind leading the blind, and they will both fall.

  • Ezekiel Commentary-Daniel Woodhead
    Ezekiel Commentary-Daniel Woodhead The Book of Ezekiel INTRODUCTION TO EZEKIEL August 23, 2015 INTRODUCTION The Old Testament book of the Jewish Prophet Ezekiel is one of the so-called Major Prophets in the Christian Bible because of its length. The other four are Isaiah, Jeremiah, Lamentations and Daniel. The twelve so-called Minor Prophets follow these. They are designated minor due to their length. Therefore all the prophetic books are collected together in the Christian Bible. The Hebrew Bible, which is called the Tenach, arranges the books in a different order and assigns the Book of Ezekiel to third position in the category called the Latter Prophets (Hebrew, Neve’em). The other Later Prophets are Isaiah, Jeremiah and the Twelve Prophets. The Jewish Talmud arranges the sequence of the books of the Latter Prophets to follow a chronological order. Beginning with Jeremiah, which is primarily concerned with the prophecies of Israel’s destruction following the narrative of the books of Kings. Ezekiel, which begins with destruction, ends with the consolation of the Messianic Kingdom. Isaiah follows that and is almost all concerned with prophecies of consolation.

Heiser (MH) Host: Trey Stricklin (TS) Episode Summary Ezekiel 10-11 are the concluding chapters to a prophetic vision that began in chapter 8. In this episode we discover how these chapters provide more Godhead talk from the Old Testament and the departure of the glory of God from the temple. Transcript TS: Welcome to the Naked Bible Podcast, Episode 119, Ezekiel chapters 10 and 11. I’m the layman, Trey Stricklin, and he’s the scholar, Dr. Michael Heiser. Hey, Mike… how you doing this week? MH: Good, how are you Trey? TS: I'm doing pretty good... can't complain. MH: So are you going to give us another fantasy update, or... TS: Sure, I'm happy to report that I won, so everything's good! It's a happy week! My wife gets annoyed at me, depending upon my mood for the weekend, if I'm winning or losing in my fantasy league. MH: Yeah, well I'm all football now. Derek Gilbert, who some listeners will know, his team eliminated my fantasy baseball team in our Naked Bible Fantasy Baseball League, so I'm done for the season there. So it's all football now! TS: All right! MH: I can put all my mental energies into winning this league. TS: You're going to need it. MH: (laughing) Yeah, if you saw how badly I lost the baseball league, you'd probably put an exclamation point on that! It was ugly, that's all I'll say.
