  • The Garment of Adam in Jewish, Muslim, and Christian Tradition
    24 The Garmentof Adam in Jewish, Muslim, and ChristianTradition Stephen D. Ricks Although rarely occurring in any detail, the motif of Adam's garment appears with surprising frequency in ancient Jewish and Christian literature. (I am using the term "Adam's garment" as a cover term to include any garment bestowed by a divine being to one of the patri­ archs that is preserved and passed on, in many instances, from one generation to another. I will thus also consider garments divinely granted to other patriarchal figures, including Noah, Abraham, and Joseph.) Although attested less often than in the Jewish and Christian sources, the motif also occurs in the literature of early Islam, espe­ cially in the Isra'iliyyiit literature in the Muslim authors al­ ThaclabI and al-Kisa'I as well as in the Rasii'il Ikhwiin al­ ~afa (Epistles of the Brethren of Purity). Particularly when discussing the garment of Adam in the Jewish tradition, I will shatter chronological boundaries, ranging from the biblical, pseudepigraphic, and midrashic references to the garment of Adam to its medieval attestations. 1 In what fol­ lows, I wish to consider (1) the garment of Adam as a pri­ mordial creation; (2) the garment as a locus of power, a symbol of authority, and a high priestly garb; and (3) the garment of Adam and heavenly robes. 2 705 706 STEPHEN D. RICKS 1. The Garment of Adam as a Primordial Creation The traditions of Adam's garment in the Hebrew Bible begin quite sparely, with a single verse in Genesis 3:21, where we are informed that "God made garments of skins for Adam and for his wife and clothed them." Probably the oldest rabbinic traditions include the view that God gave garments to Adam and Eve before the Fall but that these were not garments of skin (Hebrew 'or) but instead gar­ ments of light (Hebrew 'or).

  • Latter-Day Saint Liturgy: the Administration of the Body and Blood of Jesus
    religions Article Latter-Day Saint Liturgy: The Administration of the Body and Blood of Jesus James E. Faulconer Maxwell Institute for Religious Scholarship, Brigham Young University, Provo, UT 84602, USA; [email protected] Abstract: Latter-day Saint (“Mormon”) liturgy opens its participants to a world undefined by a stark border between the transcendent and immanent, with an emphasis on embodiment and relationality. The formal rites of the temple, and in particular that part of the rite called “the endowment”, act as a frame that erases the immanent–transcendent border. Within that frame, the more informal liturgy of the weekly administration of the blood and body of Christ, known as “the sacrament”, transforms otherwise mundane acts of living into acts of worship that sanctify life as a whole. I take a phenomenological approach, hoping that doing so will deepen interpretations that a more textually based approach might miss. Drawing on the works of Robert Orsi, Edward S. Casey, Paul Moyaert, and Nicola King, I argue that the Latter-day Saint sacrament is not merely a ritualized sign of Christ’s sacrifice. Instead, through the sacrament, Christ perdures with its participants in an act of communal memorialization by which church members incarnate the coming of the divine community of love and fellow suffering. Participants inhabit a hermeneutically transformed world as covenant children born again into the family of God.

  • In Search of Noah's Ark
    IN SEARCH OF NOAH'S ARK History does not care how events happen, it just takes the side of those who do great things and achieve great goals. At the time of writing, this scientific work I was guided by the only desire to enrich our history, to fill the gaps in it, to make it more open to understanding others, but not in any way to harm the established historical order in it. The constant desire to find God, to explain the inexplicable, the deification of the forces of nature, the desire to comprehend the incomprehensible at all times inherent in man. Studying the world around us, people learn more and more new things, and as a result of this there is a need to preserve and transmit information, whether it is in visual form, written or verbal in legends or myths. For example, in religious texts. "Noah did everything God commanded him to do. Upon completion of the construction, God told Noah to enter the ark with his sons and wife, and with the wives of his sons, and to bring also into the ark of all the animals in pairs, that they might live. And take for yourself of all food which is necessary themselves and for animals. Then the ark was shut down by God. Seven days later (in the second month, the seventeenth [27th-according to the translation of the Septuagint] day) the rain poured out on the earth, and the flood lasted forty days and forty nights, and the water multiplied, and lifted up the ark, and it rose above the earth and floated on the surface of the waters.

Temple Symbolism in The Conflict of Adam and Eve Duane Wilson The Conflict of Adam and Eve is a fascinating pseudepigraphic work that tells the story of the couple after they are cast out of the Garden of Eden. After they left the garden, God commanded them to live in a cave called the Cave of Treasures. This paper explores the function of the Cave of Treasures as a temple to Adam and Eve. Some of the aspects of temple worship discussed include the gar- ment, the use of tokens, and aspects of prayer and revelation. The Conflict of Adam and Eve with Satan is a pseudepigraphic work of unknown authorship that was written in Arabic between the seventh and ninth centuries a.d.1 It was later translated into Ethiopic. The text is divided into three parts, the first of which contains a lengthy story about Adam and Eve after they were cast out of the Garden of Eden.

  • The Armenians
    THE ARMENIANS By C.F. DIXON-JOHNSON “Whosoever does wrong to a Christian or a Jew shall find me his accuser on the day of judgment.” (EL KORAN) Printed and Published by GEO TOULMIN & SONS, LTD. Northgate, Blackburn. 1916 Preface The following pages were first read as a paper before the “Société d’Etudes Ethnographiques.” They have since been amplified and are now being published at the request of a number of friends, who believe that the public should have an opportunity of judging whether or not “the Armenian Question” has another side than that which has been recently so assiduously promulgated throughout the Western World. Though the championship of Greek, Bulgarian and other similar “Christian, civilized methods of fighting,” as contrasted with “Moslem atrocities” in the Balkans and Asia Minor, has been so strenuously undertaken by Lord Bryce and others, the more recent developments in the Near East may perhaps already have opened the eyes of a great many thinking people to the realization that, in sacrificing the traditional friendship of the Turk to all this more or less sectarian clamor, British diplomacy has really done nothing better than to exchange the solid and advantageous reality for a most elusive and unreliable, if not positively dangerous, set of shadows. It seems illogical that the same party which recalled the officials (and among them our present War Minister) appointed by Lord Beaconsfield to assist the Turkish Government in reforming their administration and collecting the revenue in Asia Minor, and which on the advent of the Young Turks refused to lend British Administrators to whom ample and plenary powers were assured, should now, in its eagerness to vilify the Turk, lose sight of their own mistakes which have led in the main to the conditions of which it complains, and should so utterly condemn its own former policy.

  • Does Ezekiel 28:11–19 Affirm the Fall of Satan in Genesis 1:1–2 As Claimed in the Gap Theory?
    VIEWPOINT || JOURNAL OF CREATION 32(3) 2018 Does Ezekiel 28:11–19 affirm the fall of Satan in Genesis 1:1–2 as claimed in the gap theory? Joel Tay and KeeFui Kon The gap theory claims that Ezekiel 28:11–19 and Isaiah 14:12–15 refer to the fall of Satan in the mineral Garden of Eden before Creation Week. This event is said to have occurred in between Genesis 1:1 and 1:2. Gap proponents are intimidated by secular geologists who claim that the earth is billions of years old. By inserting billions of years between Genesis 1:1 and 1:2, gap proponents assume that this allows them to reconcile Scripture with the idea of long ages. This paper demonstrates that the passage in Ezekiel 28 cannot relate to this supposed time gap even if the passage refers to the fall of Satan. If the text is understood as a reference to the fall of Satan, we would still be required to interpret the timing of Satan’s fall as an event that occurred after the sixth day of creation, and the final judgment of Satan is reserved for fire rather than water. We show that the gap theory is an extrabiblical and artificial construct that has been imposed upon the text of Genesis 1:1–2, and that Ezekiel 28 is actually problematic for the gap theory. ap theory claims that there was a previous earth that was 5. God destroyed the earth and everything in it with a Gcreated and then destroyed billions of years ago because worldwide Flood that produced the fossils and rock layers of the rebellion of Lucifer.

A Review of the Search for Noah’s Ark Anne Habermehl, B.Sc., 25 Madison Street, Cortland, NY 13045 Abstract There have been many alleged sightings of the Ark and numerous attempts to find it, mainly on Mount Ararat, but search attempts so far have been without success. In the light of history, geology, and archaeology, we need to consider that the Ark probably landed elsewhere, and that there may be little of it left.

  • AT the SUMMIT of MOUNT ARARAT-MASIS Melkonyan A. A. Academician of NAS RA the Most Valuable and Magnificent Names of Ararat
    AT THE SUMMIT OF MOUNT ARARAT-MASIS Melkonyan A. A. Academician of NAS RA The most valuable and magnificent names of Ararat and Masis for us Armenians have been known since earliest times. Ararat is mentioned in the Bible as a name mountains where Noah’s ark rested after the Flood subsided1. The word Ararat is presented as Armenia In Vulgatae and King James Bible2. It is suggested that the names of both Aratta (the 3rd millennium BC) of the Sumerian and Urartu (Van Kingdom, the first half of the 1st millennium BC) of the Assyrian cuneiform sources are derivations of the name of Ararat3. Great Ararat-Masis (5165 m) and Lesser Masis (Sis) (3925 m) Armenian historical sources preserved several mythological and folk legends connected with Great Masis and Hayk Patriarch’s generations (the 3rd-1st millennia BC) and kings of Great Armenia Artashes I (189-160 BC) and Trdat III (298-330 AD)4. While visiting Armenia William of Rubruck and Marko Polo saw Ararat and left testimonies about it. William of Rubruck had been told an Armenian tradition about the 1 Genesis 8:4. 2 Kings 19:37 and Isa 37:38. 3 Պետրոսյան Լ.Ն., Հայ ժողովրդի փոխադրամիջոցներ, Հայ ազգաբանություն և բանահյուսություն. ժողովածու, 6, Երևան, 1974, էջ 123: Kavoukjian M., Armenia, Subartu and Sumer.

  • Seven Mountains to Aratta
    Seven Mountains to Aratta Searching for Noah's Ark in Iran B.J. Corbin Copyright ©2014 by B.J. Corbin. All rights reserved. 1st Edition Last edited: August 30, 2015 Website: www.bjcorbin.com ​ Follow-up book to The Explorers of Ararat: And the Search for Noah’s Ark by B.J. ​ ​ Corbin and Rex Geissler available at www.noahsarksearch.com. ​ ​ Introduction (draft) The basic premise of the book is this... could there be a relationship between the Biblical "mountains of Ararat" as the landing site of Noah's Ark and the mythical mountain of Aratta as described in ancient Sumerian literature? Both the Biblical Flood mentioned in Genesis chapters 6-8 and The Epic of Gilgamesh in tablet 11 (and other ​ Sumerian texts), seem to be drawing from the same historical flood event. Probable Noah’s Ark landing sites were initially filtered by targeting "holy mountains" in Turkey and Iran. The thinking here is that something as important and significant as where Noah's Ark landed and human civilization started (again) would permeate throughout history. Almost every ancient culture maintains a flood legend. In Turkey, both Ararat and Cudi are considered holy mountains. Generally, Christians hold Mount Ararat in Turkey as the traditional landing site of Noah's Ark, while Muslims adhering to the Koran believe that Mount Cudi (pronounced Judi in Turkish) in southern Turkey is the location where Noah's Ark landed. In Iran, both Damavand and Alvand are considered holy mountains. Comparing the geography of the 4 holy mountains, Alvand best fits the description in Genesis 11:2 of people moving “from the east” into Shinar, if one ​ ​ ​ ​ supports that definition of the verse.

  • Genesis (B'reshiyt 6:9 – 11:32) Introduction: Chapter 6
    NOAH GENESIS (B’RESHIYT 6:9 – 11:32) INTRODUCTION: 1. Because of the wickedness – the mixing and mingling – God determined to blot out all inhabitants of the earth. a. Mankind had corrupted his way and, consequently, corrupted the earth itself. 2. Josephus records that Adam had predicted destruction of world by flood and fire. a. Antiquities of the Jews, Book I, chapter 2, paragraph iii. 3. Lamech named him “Noah” indicating that he would bring “rest,” meaning of name. a. Geneological record in Gen. 5 seems to indicate that he was born in 1056. b. Possibility that he was born in 1058, written in Hebrew as . 4. Noah was the remnant – “he found grace” in the eyes of the LORD; he was righteous, unpolluted and walked with God. a. Noah, like Adam, would be father of mankind after the flood. b. From the beginning, we see that there is always a remnant. c. Apparently, Noah was the ONLY one considered righteous. 5. The flood waters are called “the waters of Noah” in Isaiah 54:9. a. Rabbis deduce that the waters are Noah’s responsibility. b. He had been content to protect his own righteousness by distancing himself. 6. If he had completed responsibility to that generation fully, flood might not have happened. a. Inferring that, ultimately, God’s people are responsible for some events. b. “Sons of God” in Gen. 6 are how narrative begins; ends with corrupted earth. 7. Much is made of fact that Noah “walked with God” but Abraham “before Him.” a. Abraham is considered as spiritually superior to Noah.
