  • Blood in Hittite Ritual
    Blood IN Hittite Ritual Gary Beckman (University of Michigan) The generally anonymous authors of the texts that describe the rites of the Hittite state cult were practical men.1 Laconically they set forth the procedures to be followed and wasted few words explicating or justifying either the ceremonies or the individual ritual actions of which they were composed. Thus in our consideration of the meaning and function of blood in Hittite religious practice,2 we cannot avail ourselves of any clear statement of na- tive belief analogous to that found for Israel in the Hebrew Bible: “For the life of the flesh is in the blood; and I have given it to you for making atonement for your lives on the altar; for, as life, it is the blood that makes atonement.”3 Nonetheless, Hittite compositions of various genres do contain passages revealing that in H ̮ atti blood (ešh ̮ar 4) was recognized as the carrier of life and strength. Conversely, its presence was taken as an index of mortality. In a legendary account of the campaigns conducted in Anatolia by the Sargonic king Narām-Sîn, the ruler commands that a scout be dispatched to perform the following test on terrifying beings encountered by his forces: When he proceeds to pierce(!) them with a spear and cut them with a blade(?)—if [blood] spurts forth from them, they are human, and I shall go against them (in battle). If blood does not spurt forth from them, they are deities, and I will not go against them.5 In the course of an “induction ceremony” into the Hittite army, wine is poured out on the ground before the sol- diers concerned, and the officiant addresses them: Abbreviations employed here are those of The Hittite Dictionary of the Oriental Institute of the University of Chicago (1980–).

  • Intinction: an Historical, Exegetical, and Systematic-Theological Examination Reverend Lane B
    Intinction: An Historical, Exegetical, and Systematic-Theological Examination Reverend Lane B. Keister December 2012 Introduction: What Is At Stake? The Reformers commonly spoke of three marks of the true church: the gospel faithfully preached, the sacraments faithfully administered, and church discipline properly carried out. Intinction, which may be defined as the practice of dipping the bread into the wine during the administration of the Lord's Supper, affects one of the three marks of the church, i.e., the correct administration of the sacraments. No one in the debate would claim that the gospel is at stake. Nor would anyone claim that the Lord's Supper becomes null and void through the use of intinction. What this paper will attempt to prove is that the issue at stake is neither more nor less than the clarity of the sign of the Lord's Supper. As such, it is an issue that cannot be ignored. However, no church or teaching elder that currently practices intinction in our denomination should feel that they are under attack because of this practice. No church should be run out of town on a rail on this basis! If proponents of the change to the PCA's BCO should be victorious, all that would be required is a change in practice. These comments are offered for two reasons: 1. The temperature of the debate should be low. There is no need for heat in what should be a collegial and brotherly debate. 2. The issue needs to be seen in its proper context, as neither a gospel- level issue (a hill on which to die), nor an issue to be ignored (as if it were an attempt to prescribe, say, the shape of every Reformed church building).

  • 5, Webisode 10
    Please note: Each segment in this Webisode has its own Teaching Guide The muckrakers had a good friend in Sam McClure. He founded McClure’s Magazine, which set a new standard for activist journalism and created a new field, investigative journalism. Most important, he hired the best writers he could find: Ida Tarbell, Lincoln Steffens, Jack London, Booth Tarkington, Rudyard Kipling, Stephen Crane, and Willa Cather. Ida Tarbell broke new ground not only in showing what a woman could do in a traditionally male occupation but also in setting a standard for scholarship, fairness, and integrity in the new field of investigative journalism. Her painstakingly researched The History of the Standard Oil Company detailed the illegal tactics used by John D. Rockefeller and led to the 1911 Supreme Court decision to break up the Standard Oil trust. Another female muckraker, Elizabeth Jane Cochrane, got her first job at a newspaper at age nineteen; by twenty-five, she was the most famous woman in the world, known as the daring round-the-world reporter Nellie Bly. Editor Sam McClure and energetic journalists exercised their First Amendment right and used the pen to expose the excesses of the Gilded Age. They gave birth to the field of investigative journalism. Teacher Directions 1. Ask students to predict. • From what you know about the last half of the nineteenth century, what problems might newspaper writers expose? 2. Allow time for student response. 3. Make sure students understand the following points in discussing the question. In the Gilded Age, industry boomed and large corporations grew.

  • The Potential of Animal By-Products in Food Systems: Production, Prospects and Challenges
    sustainability Review The Potential of Animal By-Products in Food Systems: Production, Prospects and Challenges Babatunde O. Alao 1,*, Andrew B. Falowo 1, Amanda Chulayo 1,2 and Voster Muchenje 1 1 Department of Livestock and Pasture Science, University of Fort Hare, Private Bag X314, Alice 5700, South Africa; [email protected] (A.B.F.); [email protected] (A.C.); [email protected] (V.M.) 2 Dohne Agricultural Development Institute, Department of Rural Development and Agrarian Reform, Private Bag X15, Stutterheim 4935, South Africa * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +27-833-46-4435 Received: 9 May 2017; Accepted: 16 June 2017; Published: 22 June 2017 Abstract: The consumption of animal by-products has continued to witness tremendous growth over the last decade. This is due to its potential to combat protein malnutrition and food insecurity in many countries. Shortly after slaughter, animal by-products are separated into edible or inedible parts. The edible part accounts for 55% of the production while the remaining part is regarded as inedible by-products (IEBPs). These IEBPs can be re-processed into sustainable products for agricultural and industrial uses. The efficient utilization of animal by-products can alleviate the prevailing cost and scarcity of feed materials, which have high competition between animals and humans. This will also aid in reducing environmental pollution in the society. In this regard, proper utilization of animal by-products such as rumen digesta can result in cheaper feed, reduction in competition and lower cost of production. Over the years, the utilization of animal by-products such as rumen digesta as feed in livestock feed has been successfully carried out without any adverse effect on the animals.

  • PART 2 Literature Review the Bleeding of Slaughtered Lambs For
    PART 2 Literature Review The Bleeding of Slaughtered Lambs for the Purposes of Halal Slaughter Rizvan Khalid University of Bristol Division of Farm Animal Science Langford Bristol BS40 5DU UK Submitted September 2011 A dissertation submitted to the University of Bristol (UK) in accordance with the requirements of the degree of MSc Meat Science and Technology in the Faculty of Medical and Veterinary Sciences. Preface This literature review was written as the second part of the dissertation for my Masters in Meat Science & Technology from the University of Bristol, UK submitted in September 2011. With the grace of Allah (swt) I was awarded a Distinction and the Maurice Ingram Memorial prize for the student with the highest marks. This document is the same as the original submission with the exceptions of this preface, some late adjustments from Islamic scholars and some minor amendments for clarity & spelling. Part 1 of the dissertation is a practical experiment carried out in an EC approved halal abattoir assessing differences in exsanguinated blood between lambs slaughtered using Electric Head-Only Stunning, Non-Stun and Post-Cut Electric Head-Only Stunning protocols for the purposes of Halal Slaughter. This is currently being prepared for publication in a scientific journal and will be released in due course. Facilitating and promoting research in halal meat is my passion. I hope to encourage others to perform research in specific issues relating to the halal industry. Research must be conducted on a species specific basis. It also needs to clearly highlight the stunning and slaughtering protocols used as not all methods are the same and even within the same method, attention to details can make a difference.

  • DRAFT Comparing Kosher, Halal and Secular Practices for the Slaughter
    DRAFT Comparing kosher, halal and secular practices for the slaughter of mammals. An Essay for Consumers. Purpose: This document critically evaluates what we know and what we don’t know when comparing diverse religious and secular slaughter practices. We provide a short, consumer friendly discussion without references of some of the issues that arise with respect to evaluating different methods of slaughter of mammals, specifically kosher, halal and secular approaches. We suggest where future efforts ought to be focused, both from a practical public policy concern and from a scientific research point of view. The purpose is to recognize that many methods of slaughter are justified on cultural, secular and religious grounds, but that all methods should be evaluated by rigorous, comparable scientific criteria. Under the broad umbrellas of religious and secular methods, there are many practices. Only the best practices of any method, understood as the most humane both to animals and to workers, should be encouraged. Authors’ Backgrounds: the authors are all concerned with improving animal welfare and slaughter industry practices, with respect to both meat animals and workers. They have been active in that area for many years. As a group, the authors are trained both scientifically and religiously in matters related to animal slaughter. Prepared by an International Group of Scientists and Religious Leaders Authors: Dr. Shuja Shafi (Muslim Council of Britain), Dr. Stuart Rosen (Imperial College, London), and Dr. Joe M. Regenstein (Cornell University), Dr. Eric Clay, (Shared Journeys, USA) Reviewers: Dr. Temple Grandin (Colorado State University), Dr. Ari Zivotofsky (Bar-Ilan University), Dr. Doni Zivotofsky (DVM, Israel), Rabbi David Sears (Author of “Vision of Eden”, Brooklyn), Dr.

  • The Prohibition of Eating Blood in the Book of Jubilees
    Journal for the Study of Judaism 46 (�0�5) �-�7 Journal for the Study of Judaism brill.com/jsj The Sin of the Gentiles: The Prohibition of Eating Blood in the Book of Jubilees Todd R. Hanneken St. Mary’s University One Camino Santa Maria, San Antonio, TX 78228, U.S.A. [email protected] Abstract Jubilees exhorts Israelites to separate from Gentiles in every way. Jubilees does not sim- ply repeat familiar arguments that Gentiles will lead Israelites to sin if they adopt their ways. Rather, Jubilees argues that merely being in the presence of Gentiles is dangerous because they are liable to a violent death at any moment for their abhorrent daily prac- tices. At the same time, Jubilees maintains a strict standard for God’s justice such that sinners must be warned of the crime and its punishment in advance. Jubilees main- tains that the ancestors of all nations willingly entered into a covenant which demands eradication of entire nations for the sin of eating blood. In order to make this point Jubilees interprets Genesis 9 and other sources to indicate that all nations are bound to a covenant which demands eradication for the crime of eating meat that was not pro- cessed according to Levitical procedure. Keywords Jubilees – Gentiles – separation – eating blood – Genesis 9 – Leviticus 17 – Aramaic Levi Jubilees maintains a radical agenda of separation from Gentiles.1 This is evident in the discussion of specific issues such as Sabbath (2:19), nakedness (3:31), 1 The most recent discussion of anti-Gentile rhetoric in Jubilees is that of Isaac Oliver, “Forming Jewish Identity by Formulating Legislation for Gentiles,” JAJ 4 (2013): 105-32, who discusses previous scholarship including Zeitlin, Rönsch, Schwarz, Werman, and Hayes.

  • The Eucharistic Nature of John's Bread of Life Discourse
    The eucharistic nature of John’s Bread of Life discourse Jesus did not lie about eating his flesh and drinking his blood David R. Bickel January 15, 2006; wording corrected on January 21, 2006 Introduction An initial reading of John 6:22-71 leaves the impression that through the living bread discourse, Jesus taught his disciples to eat his flesh and drink his blood in the Lord’s Supper. This is not only the interpretation of the Roman Catholic and Eastern Orthodoxi churches, but also that of orthodox theologians immediately following the time of the apostles and by some confessional Lutheran theologians today. (Except when explicitly indicating metaphorical, non- physical eating and drinking, the words eat and drink will be used in the plain, oral sense, as Jesus meant them when he said, “Take, eat” and “Take, drink.”) This view will be vindicated by establishing these two teachings from the straightforward reading of the passage: 1. John 6:51-58 speaks of the eating and drinking commanded in the words of the institutionii of the Lord’s Supper, as opposed to merely metaphorical, non-physical eating and drinking. 2. In this passage, the objects of eating and drinking, referred to as “true food” and “true drink,” are the literal body and blood of Jesus, not merely the sacramental symbols or spiritual benefits of his flesh and blood. If both of these premises are true, then it necessarily follows that communicants orally partake of the literal flesh and blood of Jesus by eating and drinking the consecrated bread and wine. As the first proposition remains controversial in traditional Protestant circles, it will receive much more attention here.
