  • (Does Not) Know(S) Us: an Intertextual Dialogue in the Book of Isaiah
    Terblanche, “Abraham (does not) know(s) us,” OTE 24/1 (2011): 255-283 255 Abraham (Does not) Know(s) Us: An Intertextual Dialogue in the Book of Isaiah MARIUS D. TERBLANCHE (UNIVERSITY OF THE FREE STATE ) ABSTRACT The stance towards Abraham in Isaiah 63:16 seems to be at odds with the high esteem in which Abraham is held in the other texts in the book of Isaiah which explicitly mention him, and other exilic and post-exilic texts. This state of affairs points to an intertextual dialo- gue between the Abraham texts in the book of Isaiah. The proper name Abraham acts as a signal which alerts a reader to the inter- textual relationship. Isaiah 63:16 displaces 29:22, 41:8 and 51:2 from their positions of authority. Trust in Yahweh himself was the only option for the people. A INTRODUCTION Abraham was particularly held in high esteem in exilic and early post-exilic times. 1 The people’s assertion in Isaiah 63:16a that Abraham does not know them and that Israel does not acknowledge them, is therefore astonishing. The prophet Ezekiel criticises the people remaining in the land after the deportation in 597 B.C.E. for substantiating their claim to the land through a typological alignment with Abraham. 2 Since Abraham was only one man when the land was given to him, the people remaining in the land believed that, although they were few, they could lay claim to the land. 3 The post-exilic prayer in Nehemiah 94 regards God’s promise to Abraham as foundational for hope for salvation in 1 The seven explicit allusions to Abraham in the prophetic corpus all occur in exilic or post-exilic texts, namely Isa 29:22; 41:8; 51:2; 63:16; Jer 33:26; Ezek 33:24; Mic 7:20.

  • A Proposed Chronology of Armageddon and Christ's Second Coming Pastor Kelly Sensenig on September 2, 1945, Aboard the Battle
    A Proposed Chronology of Armageddon And Christ’s Second Coming Pastor Kelly Sensenig On September 2, 1945, aboard the battleship USS Missouri, the Japanese government formally surrendered to the Allied forces, thus ending WWII. After the instrument of surrender had been signed by all the representatives, General Douglas Macarthur, the supreme commander of the allied force in the Pacific, made a powerful announcement: “Men since the beginning of time have sought peace. We have had our last chance. Military alliances, balances of power, leagues of nations, all in turn failed, leaving the only path to be by the crucible of war. The utter destructiveness of war now blots out this alternative. If we do not devise some greater and more equitable system, Armageddon will be at our door.” MacArthur’s words are truer today than ever before. The world is not getting safer or more peaceful. The 20th century ended with a third of the world’s 193 nations embroiled in conflict. The Bible has something to say about a final battle that will occur in the land of Palestine. In this study we want to propose a chronology of events that will transpire in connection with the place called Armageddon and the Second Coming of Christ. In the final battle, or series of battles which occur within the land of Palestine, there will be a large representation of troops from all nations of planet earth (Zech 14:2; Rev. 19:15; Joel 3:9-13). Millions upon millions of troops representing the leaders and nations “of the whole world” (Rev.

  • Isaiah 63:1-6, the Redeemer Speaks Overview 1, First Question
    Isaiah 63:1-6, The Redeemer Speaks Isaiah 63:1-6, The Redeemer Speaks Overview The exchange is what one might expect from a watchman on the city wall, interrogating someone who approaches the city. The first question has to do with the identity of one who approaches. The second asks an explanation for the striking appearance of his garments. 1, First Question The watchman sees someone approaching, who is distinguished in two ways: the bright red color of his garments, and the swagger of his pace. 63:1 Who is this that cometh from Edom, with dyed garments from Bozrah? Bozrah is a city of Edom, on the east side of the rift valley south of the Dead Sea (Figure 1, chart).The reference to Edom and Bozrah might mean either of two things. 1. Delitzsch sees the oracle as focused on the judgment of Edom. Recall earlier promises of God’s judgment on these two: Isa 11:12 And he shall set up an ensign for the nations, and shall assemble the outcasts of Israel, and gather together the dispersed of Judah from the four corners of the earth. ... 14 But they shall fly upon the shoulders of m the Philistines toward the west; they shall spoil them of o d the east together: they shall lay their hand upon Edom E and Moab; and the children of Ammon shall obey them. Isa 34:6 The sword of the LORD is filled with blood, it is made fat with fatness, and with the blood of lambs and goats, with the fat of the kidneys of rams: for the LORD hath a sacrifice in Bozrah, and a great slaughter in the land of Idumea.
