Identifying military engagements in Egypt and the Levant, 1915- 1918 Roslyn Shepherd King Pike* Independent Scholar Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT This article examines the official names listed in the 'Egypt and Palestine' section of the 1922 report by the British Army’s Battles Nomenclature Committee and compares them with descriptions of military engagements in the Official History to establish if they clearly identify the events. The Committee’s application of their own definitions and guidelines during the process of naming these conflicts is evaluated together with examples of more recent usages in selected secondary sources. The articles concludes that the Committee’s failure to accurately identify the events of this campaign have had a negative impacted on subsequent historiography. Introduction While the perennial rose would still smell the same if called a lily, any discussion of military engagements relies on accurate and generally agreed on enduring names, so historians, veterans, and the wider community, can talk with some degree of confidence about particular events, and they can be meaningfully written into history. -

Elkanah 1 Samuel 1-2 by Bob Young
Elkanah 1 Samuel 1-2 By Bob Young Introduction 1 Samuel 1—with Samuel as the lead character, on our way to David. Samuel becomes the foremost leader of Israel after Moses/Joshua and before David. Samuel is the bearer of God’s word (3:19-21), the administrator of justice (7:17), and is responsible for much of the life of Israel. As we come to this chapter, it is clear that we must not hurry to David. The narrative of Samuel’s birth and youth (ch. 1-3) is a single literary unit. Analyzing this section, we see at the center the Song of Hannah [1:1-28; 2:1-10; 2:11-4:1a]. Every assertion from Samuel’s birth (1:3-28) to the dream theophany (3:1-10) to the authorization of Samuel (3:19- 21) shows Yahweh at the center of Israel. All are creatures of God’s sovereignty and agents of God’s future. As we begin the book, Israel is waiting, a marginal community, marginalized by the power and pressure of the Philistines, politically weak, economically disadvantaged. There is also a moral and theological dimension to Israel’s problems--moral chaos (cf. end of Judges), undisciplined religion, brutality. To solve this problem, we move behind the great men, and locate the origin of Israel’s future and the source of its “great leaders” in the family of Elkanah, specifically in noting a bereft, barren wife named Hannah. This is an Ephraimite family, a solid pedigree, but the mother is barren with no prospect of children. -
Texts: Malachi 3:1-4; Luke 1:68-79; Philippians 1:3-11; Luke3:1-6
Texts: Malachi 3:1-4; Luke 1:68-79; Philippians 1:3-11; Luke3:1-6 Advent begins new year in the church and for most of the coming year we are going to read the gospel of Luke. Beginnings are important, and Luke begins with the story of the angel Gabriel foretelling the amazing birth of a baby boy, who is destined for great things in the story of salvation. This birth is remarkable not because the boy’s mother is a virgin, but because she is old. She is Elizabeth, the wife of Zechariah, a priest in the temple. Hers is a story that we find throughout the Bible – the story of a woman who thought that she could not have a child, but who then finds out that she will give birth to a very special son. The story of Elizabeth and Zechariah reminds us of Sarah and Abraham, whose son Isaac was the heir to God’s promise. It reminds us of the story of Hannah and Elkanah, whose son Samuel was dedicated to God’s work. This time, here in Luke’s story, Zechariah, like Abraham, prays for what seems to be impossible. So Gabriel comes to bring the good news that his prayer has been answered and that he and Elizabeth will have a son, whose name is to be John. But Zechariah, like Abraham and Sarah, doesn’t actually believe that the answer is yes, and he questions the angel. Gabriel responds by taking away Zechariah’s voice, striking him mute, unable to speak. -

THE RAIDS ACROSS the JORDAN Thecapture of Jericho and the West Bank of the Jordan Was Only the First Stage of Operations of the Utmost Importance
CHAPTER IX THE RAIDS ACROSS THE JORDAN THEcapture of Jericho and the west bank of the Jordan was only the first stage of operations of the utmost importance. The Jordan position was more than a good defensive flank; it offered an opening for attack, with good prospects of success, against the Turkish communications along the Hejaz railway. The Sherifian Arabs were still raiding the enemy south of El Kutrani, and in early March were present in some force about Et Tafile. Turkish columns from Kerak, to the north, and from the railway, on the east, drove them out of Et Tafile on March rrth, but a week later had withdrawn again to their camps on the railway. It was deemed to be of the highest importance to interrupt the communications of these Turkish troops by cutting the railway about Amman, and especially by destroying a railway viaduct at the south of that town. Moreover, the Bedouin tribes about Madeba were inclined to hostility against the Turks, and it was held that any successful operations against Amman might count to some extent on their co-operation. Hence the great raids of March and April against Amman, Es Salt, and the Turkish garrisons east of the Jordan had a direct importance, evidenced in the event by the enemy’s sensitiveness. They had also an indirect result of the greatest possible value. as subsequently appeared. In these spring operations Allenby probably builded better than he knew. When the time came for the final assault which destroyed the Turkish armies, the enemy was still inclined to suspect that the British intended to attack across the Jordan rather than along the Mediterranean coast. -
The Function of the Prophets in the United Monarchy
McLain I Prophets in United Monarchy I 35 The Function of the Prophets in the United Monarchy CHARLES E McLAIN, Th M Professor, Calvary Baptist Theological Seminary The purpose for the origin of the prophetic office, according to Freeman, was for "guarding Israel against Canaan's superstitious practices, as well as those of her neighbors .... Because of this, Moses announced the forming of the prophetic office for the purpose of continuing the divine revelation through the line of prophets." 1 Therefore in a survey of any portion of Israel's history subsequent to Moses in which prophets are ministering, the two basic functions of revelation and guardianship should be found. On the other hand, with the passage of time a certain development can be expected in relation to such things as Israel's establishment in the land, the raising up of the judges, the background of the persons called to be prophets, the establishment of the monarchy, and the giving of additional revelation by God. During the period of the United Monarchy the ministries of three named prophets are recorded-Samuel, Nathan, and Gad. A survey of the Scripture dealing with their ministries indicates that they functioned in three general areas. First, in the realm of revelation they functioned as revealers of God's word and preachers of God's message. Second, in the realm of intercession they functioned as priest and prayer warrior. Finally, in the realm of guardianship or administration they functioned as judge, king-maker, and advisor. The Prophetic Function in the Realm of Revelation In the area of revelation the prophets of the United Monarchy functioned both as revealers of God's word and preachers of God's message. -
