    Family of Abraham Terah ? Haran Nahor Sarai - - - - - ABRAM - - - - - Hagar Lot Milcah Bethuel Ishmael (1) ISAAC (2) Daughter 1 Daughter 2 Ishmaelites (12 tribes / Arabs) Laban Rebekah Moabites Ammonites JACOB (2) Esau (1) Leah Rachel Edomites (+Zilpah) (+Bilhah) ISRAELITES Key: blue = men; red = women; (12 tribes / Jews) dashes = spouses; arrows = children Terah: from Ur of the Chaldeans; has 3 sons; wife not named (Gen 11:26-32; cf. Luke 3:34). Haran: dies in Ur before his father dies; wife not named; son Lot, daughters Milcah & Iscah (11:27-28). Nahor: marries Milcah, daughter of his brother Haran (11:29); have 8 sons, incl. Bethuel (22:20-24). Abram: main character of Gen 12–25; recipient of God’s promises; name changed to ABRAHAM (17:5); sons Ishmael (by Hagar) and Isaac (by Sarah); after Sarah’s death, takes another wife, Keturah, who has 6 sons (25:1-4), including Midian, ancestor of the Midianites (37:28-36). Lot: son of Haran, thus nephew of Abram, who takes care of him (11:27–14:16; 18:17–19:29); wife and two daughters never named; widowed daughters sleep with their father and bear sons, who become ancestors of the Moabites and Ammonites (19:30-38). Sarai: Abram’s wife, thus Terah’s daughter-in-law (11:29-31); Abram also calls her his “sister,” which seems deceptive in one story (12:10-20); but in another story Abram insists she really is his half- sister (his father’s daughter by another wife; 20:1-18); originally childless, but in old age has a son, Isaac (16:1–21:7); name changed to SARAH (17:15); dies and is buried in Hebron (23:1-20).

  • Optimistic About the Town's Future, Windsor Residents
    WINDSOR VERMONT Optimistic about the town’s future, Windsor residents chose architect Asher Benjamin (1773-1845) to design a new church and meetinghouse in 1798. Ben- jamin’s three-year residence in Windsor yielded at least three houses, all of them since lost, as well as this landmark Federal- style church. He designed fine buildings in several Connecticut River Valley towns before establishing a successful practice in Boston. He is best known as the author of the first American builder’s guide. The Country Builder’s Assistant, published in Greenfield, Massachusetts, in 1797, was the first of many influential guides The “Design for a Meeting House” from Asher Benjamin’s first guide,The Country he wrote.

The minister, who was paid in money or “in grains, or pork, or beef or day’s labor,” forded the river weekly to preach to the Windsor members. The congregation formed its own church in 1774 and built a simple, frame meetinghouse for both town and church business.

  • The Twelve Tribes of Israel by Felix Just, S.J., Ph.D
    The Twelve Tribes of Israel by Felix Just, S.J., Ph.D. In the Hebrew Bible (the Christian Old Testament), the Israelites are described as descendants of the twelve sons of Jacob (whose name was changed to Israel in Gen 32:28), the son of Isaac, the son of Abraham. The phrase "Twelve Tribes of Israel" (or simply "Twelve Tribes") sometimes occurs in the Bible (OT & NT) without any individual names being listed (Gen 49:28; Exod 24:4; 28:21; 39:14; Ezek 47:13; Matt 19:28; Luke 22:30; Acts 26:7; and Rev 21:12; cf. also "Twelve Tribes of the Dispersion" in James 1:1). More frequently, however, the names are explicitly mentioned. The Bible contains two dozen listings of the twelve sons of Jacob and/or tribes of Israel. Some of these are in very brief lists, while others are spread out over several paragraphs or chapters that discuss the distribution of the land or name certain representatives of each tribe, one after another. Surprisingly, however, each and every listing is slightly different from all the others, either in the order of the names mentioned or even in the specific names used (e.g., the two sons of Joseph are sometimes listed along with or instead of their father; and sometimes one or more names is omitted for various reasons). A few of the texts actually have more than 12 names! Upon closer analysis, one can discover several principles for the ordering and various reasons for the omission or substitution of some of the names, as explained in the notes below the following tables.

  • Christian Apostate Literature in Medieval Islam Dissertation
    Voices of the Converted: Christian Apostate Literature in Medieval Islam Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Clint Hackenburg, M.A. Graduate Program in Near Eastern Languages and Cultures The Ohio State University 2015 Dissertation Committee: Kevin van Bladel, Advisor Bilal Orfali Hadi Jorati Copyright by Clint Hackenburg 2015 Abstract This dissertation seeks to discuss the dialectical (kalām) and scriptural (both biblical and qurʾānic) reasoning used to justify Christian conversion to Islam during the medieval period (750 - 1492 C.E.). With this objective in mind, I will compare and contrast the manners in which five different Arabophone authors, ʿAlī ibn Sahl Rabban al-Ṭabarī (d. ca. 860), al-Ḥasan ibn Ayyūb (fl. ca. mid-tenth century), Naṣr ibn Yaḥyā (d. 1163 or 1193), Yūsuf al-Lubnānī (d. ca mid-thirteenth century), and Anselm Turmeda (d. 1423), all Christian converts to Islam, utilized biblical and qurʾānic proof-texts alongside dialectical reasoning to invalidate the various tenets of Christianity while concurrently endorsing Islamic doctrine. These authors discuss a wide variety of contentious issues pervading medieval Christian-Muslim dialogue. Within the doctrinal sphere, these authors primarily discuss the Trinity and Incarnation, the nature of God, and the corruption of the Bible (taḥrīf). Within the exegetical realm, these authors primarily discussed miracles, prophecy, and prophetology. Moreover, this dissertation seeks to discern how these authors and their works can be properly contextualized within the larger framework of medieval Arabic polemical literature. That is to say, aside from parallels and correspondences with one another, what connections, if any, do these authors have with other contemporary Arabophone Muslim, Christian, and, to a lesser extent, Jewish apologists and polemicists? ii In the course of my research on Christian apostate literature, I have come to two primary conclusions.

  • The Happiest Person in the Bible” Parashat Vayechi 5773; December 29, 2012 Rabbi Adam J
    “The Happiest Person in the Bible” Parashat Vayechi 5773; December 29, 2012 Rabbi Adam J. Raskin Congregation Har Shalom, Potomac, MD I was recently asked one of the hardest questions I’ve ever been posed in my rabbinic career. It was not a complex halakhic question…It was not a question about some nuance in Jewish law; it was not an ethical crisis or a moral dilemma. But it was a stumper! And I haven’t stopped thinking about it in the several months since the question was first posed. I’d like you all to think about it for a moment as well. The question was: “Who is the happiest person in the Bible?” Now of course many people in the Bible experience episodes of happiness to be sure. They fall in love and get married, they have children, they amass fortunes, they experience victories of all sorts…but is there any single character in the Bible, my questioner wanted to know, that you would categorize as being happy? Now you’re probably doing what I did when I was first asked the question. You are scrolling through the sefer Torah in your head to try to find such a character. It probably didn’t take you long to get through Genesis…Adam and Eve are like little babies…they don’t know how good they had it until they don’t have it any more! Their own children are plagued with fratricide. There is a quick descent into the generation of the Flood—Noah may be a lot of things…brave, obedient, righteous maybe-- but happy, I’m not so sure! The Midrash says that all he did night and day was feed and groom all those animals on the ark.

The phrase “Twelve Tribes of Israel” (or simply “Twelve Tribes”) sometimes occurs in the Bible (OT & NT) without any individual names being listed (Gen 49:28; Exod 24:4; 28:21; 39:14; Ezek 47:13; Matt 19:28; Luke 22:30; Acts 26:7; and Rev 21:12; cf. also “Twelve Tribes of the Dispersion” in James 1:1). More frequently, however, the names are explicitly mentioned. The Bible contains two dozen listings of the twelve sons of Jacob and/or tribes of Israel. Some of these are in very brief lists, while others are spread out over several paragraphs or chapters that discuss the distribution of the land or name certain representatives of each tribe, one after another. Surprisingly, however, each and every listing is slightly different from all the others, either in the order of the names mentioned or even in the specific names used (e.g., the two sons of Joseph are sometimes listed along with or instead of their father; and sometimes one or more names is omitted for various reasons). A few of the texts actually have more than 12 names! Upon closer analysis, one can discover several principles for the ordering and various reasons for the omission or substitution of some of the names, as explained in the notes below the following tables.

  • 1 Genesis 49 Jacob's Dozen: Gad, Asher, Naphtali Lesson 9: April 15
    Refine Women’s Ministry Genesis 49 Jacob’s Dozen: Gad, Asher, Naphtali Lesson 9: April 15, 2020 by Kim Peelen It is the blessing of the LORD that makes rich, And He adds no sorrow to it. Proverbs 10:22 The Lord GOD is my strength, And He has made my feet like hinds' feet, And makes me walk on my high places. Habakkuk 3: 19 I have not hidden Your righteousness within my heart; I have spoken of Your faithfulness and Your salvation; I have not concealed Your lovingkindness and Your truth from the great congregation. Psalm 40:10 All these are the twelve tribes of Israel, and this is what their father said to them when he blessed them. He blessed them, every one with the blessing appropriate to him (Genesis 49:28). Jacob continues to bless his sons, and after Dan, he addresses the three remaining sons of the maids of his wives: Gad, Asher, and Naphtali with brief but significant words. "As for Gad, raiders shall raid him, But he will raid at their heels.” "As for Asher, his food shall be rich, And he will yield royal dainties.” "Naphtali is a doe let loose, He gives beautiful words.” Genesis 49: 19 - 21 A review of the complicated family tree - which son belong to which mother – is in order. After Leah has Reuben, Simeon, Levi, and Judah, she stops having children. Her sister Rachel, who is also a wife of Jacob, is childless after many years, so she gives her maid Bilhah to Jacob to bear children on her behalf.

  • ASHER INTRATER – ‘ECCLESIA’, the GLOBAL CHURCH Saturday PM Session
    2015 GLOBAL CONFERENCE “AS ONE” ASHER INTRATER – ‘ECCLESIA’, THE GLOBAL CHURCH Saturday PM Session Jane: Tonight, Asher Intrater is our speaker. We are blessed to have Asher and Betty Intrater with us. Asher is the founder and Apostolic leader of Revive Israel Ministries and he oversees a congregation in Jerusalem, as well as, Tel Aviv. He is one of the founders of Tikkun International along with Dan Juster and Eitan Shishkoff. He serves on the board of the Messianic Board of Israel and Aglow International. Mostly I would say, he is our friend. He is our brother. We have so appreciated the friendship and the relationship with him and we greatly appreciate all that he is adding into our ministry. We look forward to what the Lord has to say to us tonight through our brother, Asher. Asher: Yesterday we heard Jane speak to you about her and your love and commitment for the people of Israel. Today, I want to teach on just the opposite of that. I want to talk about our love and commitment for the Church – our love and commitment as the Messianic remnant of Israel toward the International Church of Jesus Christ. I want to say that – maybe this has not happened often – what we want to do tonight is simply bless you as Aglow in this place, bless Aglow around the world, and bless the Ecclesia – bless the International people of God. I was thinking that I would have a difficult time even remembering when Messianic Believers come out of Israel for that purpose.
