We seek studies that engage theory without losing touch with history, and work historically without falling into uncritical positivism. FlashPoints will aim for a broad audience within the humanities and the social sciences concerned with moments of cultural emergence and transformation.

  • The Ten Commandments
    Welcome to OUR 9th VIRTUAL GSP class! the Ten Commandments. O Almighty Lord, and everlasting God, vouchsafe, we beseech thee, to direct, sanctify, and govern, both our hearts and bodies, in the ways of thy laws, and in the works of thy commandments; that through thy most mighty protection, both here and ever, we may be preserved in body and soul; through our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. Amen. PSALM 19.7-8 The law of the Lord is perfect, reviving the soul; the testimony of the Lord is sure and gives wisdom to the simple. The statutes of the Lord are right and rejoice the heart; the commandment of the Lord is pure and gives light to the eyes. WHERE DO WE FIND THE TEXT OF THE TEN COMMANDMENTS? The Ten Commandments, a set of Biblical principles relating to ethics and worship fundamental to both Judaism and Christianity, appear twice in the Old Testament at Exodus 20:2-17 and Deuteronomy 5:6- 21. The text of these two references are virtually identical. The commandments are called “the ten words,” “the ten sayings,” or “the ten matters.” In the Septuagint the “ten words” in Greek became “Decalogue.” Exodus 20: 1-7, King James Version (1611) 20 And God spake all these words, saying, 2 I am the LORD thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. 3 Thou shalt have no other gods before me. 4 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.

    Lessons on the Life of Moses Taken from the Old Testament. John Hendershot Text copyright © 2013 John C. Hendershot All Rights Reserved Cover: Dore, Moses Breaks the Tables of the Law. Public Domain. Dedication To the memory of John B. and Lillian V. Hendershot – who taught us to “pass it on.” Table of Contents Moses – The Beginning - Exodus 1-3 The Call - Exodus 4 Ten Plagues - Exodus 7-11 Passover - Exodus 12 The Exodus - Exodus 12-17 The Ten Commandments - Exodus 20:1-21 Rebellion - Numbers 11-12 God on Trial - Numbers 14 Moses’ Sin - Numbers 20:1-13 Balaam - Numbers 22-24 Final Words - Deuteronomy 32 Moses – The Beginning - Exodus 1-3 The life of Moses studies one of the central characters of the Old Testament. His life was a grand parade, so much so that Cecil B. deMille made an epic movie about it – twice. (One was a silent movie; the other one featured Charlton Heston.) A little background from the first chapter of Exodus is necessary: At the time of Moses’ birth, the Egyptians had enslaved the Israelites and had them at hard labor. One reason for this was that the Egyptians feared that the Israelites, who were becoming more numerous, would side with Pharaoh’s enemies, leading to the destruction of the kingdom. This fear reached such intensity that Pharaoh issued a decree that all the baby boys born to Israelites were to be drowned. The Ark Exo 2:1-10 NASB Now a man from the house of Levi went and married a daughter of Levi.

  • Wholly Moses – in Art, Culture and Jewish Thought Yeshiva College / Spring 2018 / Friday, 10:00Am – 12:30Pm Rabbi Meir Soloveichik and Professor Jacob Wisse
    Wholly Moses – in Art, Culture and Jewish Thought Yeshiva College / Spring 2018 / Friday, 10:00am – 12:30pm Rabbi Meir Soloveichik and Professor Jacob Wisse E-mail: [email protected] E-mail: [email protected] Co-Sponsored by The Straus Center for Torah and Western Thought & Yeshiva University Museum Course Description No Hebrew biblical figure has exercised as much fascination throughout history as Moses. Prophet, leader, lawgiver, Moses is considered a precursor and model for the Pope and a revered figure within Christianity, Islam and the Abrahamic faiths. He has been a rich source of interpretation for writers, scholars and leaders across cultures, from Greek philosophers to America’s founding fathers, and disciplines, from politics to psychoanalysis. Artists from the ancient period through the Renaissance and early modern artists, from Botticelli and Michelangelo to Rembrandt and Poussin, have found in the figure and story of Moses an unparalleled, multifaceted source of visual imagery and exegesis. For Jews, Moses is, arguably, the most important biblical figure – the person who led the children of Israel from slavery in Egypt to the Promised Land and who received the Torah from God and gave it to the people of Israel. Moses is also a flashpoint of theological and philosophical debate. This interdisciplinary course explores the figure of Moses both within the context of art and visual culture and of theology and philosophy – in order to arrive at a richer understanding of Moses within history and world culture. Course Structure This course is structured thematically and chronologically. We will analyze Moses according to key themes, such as Moses as a historical figure, Moses as an intermediary between God and mankind, Moses as a prophet, Moses as teacher; and we will trace the evolution of the perception and depiction of Moses in art from the ancient to modern periods.

    THE C^OLLECTION OF ,TEWISH CEREMONIAL OBJECTS IN THE UNITED STATES NATIONAL MUSEUM. By Cyrus Adlek and I. M. Casanowioz, Of the v. aS'. XatioiKil Miisciidi. INTRODUCTION. A\nien the Board of Regents of the Smithsonian Institution, in 1847, first planned that which was to grow into the United States National INIusenm they laid out a comprehensive programme in all departments of human knowledge and endeavor capable of repre- sentation by collections. In describing the ethnological section, they specifically mentioned religions as one of the subjects suitable for museum collections. During the course of years objects pertaining to religious cults formed a considerable part of the series. The Museum, differing from most others at that time, abandoned the severely geo- graphical classification and, though to a certain extent such considera- tions dictated the arrangement and installation of the objects, special subjects were treated independently of either areas or national limita- tions, in order to show the history of given ideas or endeavors in the human race treated as an entirety. In 1890 the question was taken up of the possibility of applying such treatment to religion, a subject of whose importance in the his- tory of humanity there has never been any question. There was a doubt, however, in the minds of many as to whether the abstract ideas Avhich group themselves about the word "" religion " could be adequately or even fairly portrayed through ceremonial objects, numerous as they might be. Two members of the staff were in- structed, while abroad, to examine into this subject, with the result that, in 1891, it was decided to secure objects of religious ceremony with the view primarily to exhibit them at the World's Columbian Exposition in Chicago, and ultimately with the intention of bringing them together for installation in the National Museum.

    Significant Moments An historical novel written in quotations Gary Freedman The purpose and character of the use of quotations of copyrighted material in Significant Moments is for educational purposes. 17 U.S. Code § 107(1). The book illustrates the use of a particular literary device known as “Melitzah,” and has been so recognized. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melitzah All copyrights belong to their respective owners. No copyright infringement intended. Significant Moments Those with an intimate acquaintance of Hebrew texts will recognize immediately that this one is written entirely in melitzah, a mosaic of fragments and phrases from the Hebrew Bible as well as from rabbinic literature or the liturgy, fitted together to form a new statement of what the author intends to express at the moment. Melitzah, in effect, recalls Walter Benjamin's desire to someday write a work composed entirely of quotations. At any rate, it was a literary device employed widely in medieval Hebrew poetry and prose, then through .

    A Note from Your Friends at The Bible Binge The Bible Binge is a year old and in that time, we’ve had an incredible time rediscovering stories and characters within the Bible. One thing we’ve noticed is that we have the desire to extend those conversations in ways our episodes just don’t allow. Which is why we wanted to start this community. To be sure, one of the biggest motivations behind The Bible Binge in the first place was because we felt like there were a lot of people like us: not academics or theologians, but yet super interested in talking about the Bible in a way that is less Bible Scholar and more every person. And our hunch was confirmed in the incredible community of listeners that's grown around the show. This is why we're excited to unveil our plans to help widen the potential for that growing community. Listen, we know that merging conversation and content about the Bible / faith elements with monetization can be TRICKY. Understanding that, we're actively running away from a tip jar structure that offers vague value beyond good vibes and digital high fives. Final word: Asking you for monies is something we take very seriously. We know it’s no small thing to commit your financial resources to us and we deeply respect even your consideration of such a thing. But know that our commitment to you and this community is always to pursue a return on investment that greatly exceeds $5 each month.

    Cambridge University Press 052165310X - The Cambridge Companion to Thomas Mann Edited by Ritchie Robertson Frontmatter More information The Cambridge Companion to Thomas Mann Key dimensions of Thomas Mann’s writing and life are explored in this col- lection of specially commissioned essays. In addition to introductory chapters on all the main works of fiction, the essays and diaries, there are four chapters examining Mann’s oeuvre in relation to major themes. These thematic explo- rations include his position as a realistic writer concerned with the history of his own times and as a commentator on German and American politics; his controversial reputation as an intellectual novelist; the literary techniques that enabled his challenging fictions to appeal to a wide audience; and the homosex- ual subtext running through his fiction and diaries. A final chapter looks at the pitfalls of translating Mann into English. The essays are well supported by sup- plementary material including a chronology of the period and detailed guides to further reading. Altogether the volume provides an invaluable resource for scholars and students. ritchie robertson is Professor of German at Oxford University and Fellow and Tutor of St John’s College, Oxford.
