Ninja Forms Field 847 EBTC 2019 SYLLABUS MASTER OF DIVINITY BI 726 BIBLE GEOGRAPHY Dr. Bruce Alvord 1 EBTC-ONLINE.ORG/MASTER Course Syllabus COURSE DESCRIPTION A survey of the principal physical features of the land of Israel and a review of the most important aspects of historical geography in the Old and New Testaments. Special attention will be given to the relationship between Israel’s geography and the biblical events connected with it, as well as interpreting and applying select biblical texts that have significant geographical meaning. Photographs, video clips, reconstructions, and a wide variety of maps help the students to picture and understand these aspects of the Bible. COURSE GOALS Learning Outcomes: Overview This section shows you how this class contributes to the purposes of the M.Div. program, as a part of fulfilling the mission of the European Bible Training Center. EBTC Mission Statement The European Bible Training Center exists to equip godly men to the pastors and/or trainers of pastors for service to Christ in strategic fields of Christian ministry through an educational program and an environment of spiritual fellowship and relationships which emphasize unreserved commitment to the worship of God, submission to the authority of the Scriptures, a life of personal holiness, the priority of the local church, and the mission of penetrating the world with the Truth. M.Div. Program Purpose Statement The Master of Divinity Program is designed to provide a broad biblical theological understanding, personal growth, and professional preparation for church or mission vocations requiring ordination. 2 M.Div. Program Learning Outcomes PLO #1: As a future elder, pastor, missionary or educator, comprehend the significant areas of Biblical Interpretation, Biblical Languages, Christian Theology and Pastoral ministry. PLO #2: As a future elder/pastor, construct a personal philosophy of ministry with application to the desired vocational goals. PLO #3: As a future teacher of the Scripture, synthesize the input of Biblical languages, Bible backgrounds and theological constructs to preach and teach the Bible to varied age levels and abilities within any ministry context. PLO #4: As a future spiritual leader, exhibit the disciplines of holiness, prayer, and compassion required for ministry. Division of Old Testament Studies Purpose Statement It is essential that the student of biblical studies obtain the tools necessary for an accurate interpretation and a deeper appreciation of the text of the OT. The OT which we accept as the Word of God was written originally in the Hebrew and Aramaic languages of the ancient Near East. Any student of Scripture who wishes to heighten his expertise in the exposition of the literature of the OT must have some acquaintance with its original languages. According to the historical declaration of our faith, the final authority for resolving questions of interpretation resides in the original languages of the Scriptures. Our historic faith also declares that we believe in providing translations of the Word of God in the heart languages of those who do not know the original languages of Scripture. Whether in the realm of preaching or teaching or translation, the student must obtain a certain degree of proficiency in the biblical languages if he is to be properly prepared for ministry. Division of Old Testament Studies Learning Outcomes DLO #1: As a translator, demonstrate competency with vocabulary, basic grammar, and standard tools to translate simple biblical Hebrew texts. DLO #2: As a scholar, implement a sound research methodology to interpret the Hebrew Bible. DLO #3: As an exegete, produce an exegetical project reflecting accuracy in critical thinking and writing. 3 DLO #4: As an expositor, write a sermon combining accurate translation and exegesis of the Hebrew text with reliable practical and theological implications. Student Learning Outcomes: This Course Upon our mutual, diligent completion of this course of study, you will be able to: SLO #1: Increase your interest in the Holy Land and your love for the Bible. SLO #2: Identify the major regions, significant geographical features and important biblical sites in Israel/Palestine, and use this in your study of the Bible, teaching and preaching. SLO #3: Better understand and remember biblical events because you can connect them with where they occurred geographically. SLO #4: Teach the Bible with more vividness and accuracy.

  • Six Tikunim for Israel at 60
    For Educational Use Only Six T Six Tikkunim for Israel's Sixtieth Year In celebration and commemoration of Israel’s sixtieth anniversary, we propose six Tikkunim . The idea of Tikkun positions people in partnership with God, assuming responsibility for our world. By the same token, we invite Jews in Israel and abroad to share the responsibility for the present and future State of Israel, through meaningful learning and experience of current dilemmas of the sixty- year-old/young country. Halachah offers an educational frame for the number “sixty”, when it claims that food will be considered kosher even if it has a non-kosher ingredient, when the kosher ingredients of the food are sixty times greate r than the non kosher Thinking within this . ָטֵ ל ְִִ י ingredient. This is termed: Nullified by Sixty 1 framework as well as the framework of Tikkun Olam, led us to identify six Tikkunim for Israel’s sixtieth year. We hope that these Tikkunim will serve as an invitation for contemplation and action on that which requires mending and in turn become sixty times greater than other Israeli challenges. In the following document you will find six gates for six Tikkunim . Each gate is thematically inspired by one of the books of the Mishnah: Tikkun of Time תיקו הזמ – Zeraim (1 Tikkun of Shabbat תיקו שבת – Mo’ed (2 Tikkun of Gender תיקו המגדר – Nashim (3 Tikkun of Conservation תיקו השימור - Nezikin (4 Tikkun of the Sacred Place and Space תיקו המקו הקדוש - Kodashim (5 Tikkun of Social Ethics תיקו הכשרות החברתית – Toharot (6 1 " "ָ ל אִ רִ י ֶַ רָה [ ְטֵלִ י ] ְִִ י " ( תלמוד בבלי , קודשי , חולי , פרק ז ', ד+ צ" ח א ' גמרא) 1 Each Tikkun gate includes: a verse introducing the key issue, an essential question, a Jewish Text, an Israeli song and a contemporary Israeli thought.

This painful recycling of history should make him—and us—want to know what unhealable wound, what recurrent pathology, what cause too deep for journalists and politicians to discern draws men and women to their deaths again and again in such a place. The history of Rome, as has often been true in the past, has much to teach us.

  • The Upside of Evil (Tetzave) by Rabbi Ben Tzion Spitz Moshe Feiglin On
    11 Adar Alef 5779 – Feb 16, 2019 BSD from God and cleave to divine service, God is overjoyed, and it The Upside of Evil (Tetzave) causes a divine light to spread forth. By Rabbi Ben Tzion Spitz May we always overcome our negative natural impulses and turn our inner demons into radiant light. Evil is unspectacular and always human, and Moshe Feiglin on the Latest Yisrael shares our bed and eats at our own table. -W. H. Auden Hayom Poll: ZEHUT at 5 Mandates In describing the construction plans of the Holy Tabernacle, the Torah adds a short line about the fuel needed to light the Menorah, the golden candelabrum, which was one of the special fixtures of the Tabernacle. It states as follows: “And thou shalt command the children of Israel, that they bring unto thee pure olive oil beaten for the light, to cause a lamp to burn continually.” – Exodus 27:22 The Berdichever focuses on the choice of words of “beating” the olive to get light. He compares the olive in this case to one’s evil inclination. The evil inclination is constantly enticing us to follow our base desires, to indulge in what is forbidden and to separate us from spiritual and divine service. The solution is to “beat” that desire and then elevate that very same desire, to channel it into divine service. To use that passion, that interest, that energy, in holy ventures. We need to consider that if we have some physical yearning, how much stronger should our yearning be for the infinite, for God? If we have some physical fear, how much stronger should our fear and awe of the divine be? Dear Friends, When we’ve managed to convert that evil inclination, those base Yes, this morning it looks like ZEHUT’s sun is beginning to shine, desires into spiritual energy, into holy actions, then that evil has thank God.

DESCRIPTORS *Constructivism (Learning); Educational Principles; *Educational Psychology; Educational Theories; Elementary Secondary Education; Foreign Countries; *Intellectual Disciplines; Learning; Personality Traits; *Teaching Methods; *Theory Practice Relationship; Trend Analysis IDENTIFIERS *China; Knowledge Acquisition; *United States ABSTRACT This publication consists of two reports that were commissioned by the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization as background for its biennial report on world education. The first paper, "Educational Psychology and Teaching Methods in China: Developments and Trends," by Duan Huifen and others, indicates that educational psychology in China began with the introduction of theories from abroad. This was followed by a period of testing, assimilation, and thorough investigation, and finally by actual creative development. A distinctively Chinese school of educational psychology has yet to be developed, but one trend is the emphasis on the harmonious development of the whole personality. The second paper, "Trends and Developments in Educational Psychology in the United States," by Rochel Gelman and Meredith Gattis Lee, emphasizes recent interest in the constructivist nature of learning, a view that is currently in favor. Notions of learning as a process of building associations are being expanded in examinations of the active construction of knowledge.
