  • The Feast of Cover-Over . . . Meredith G. Kline
    JETS 37/4 (December 1994) 497-510 THE FEAST OF COVER-OVER MEREDITH G. K L I N E * I. AVIAN IMAGERY AND DEITY The first metaphor we meet with in the Bible likens the Creator-Spirit to a bird hovering over the deep-and-darkness (Gen 1:2). This same avian image is also a key feature in the Exodus 12 account of the paschal event, but it has remained hidden behind the mistranslation of the crucial verb päsah. Not "pass over" but "hover over" is the meaning of this word, as the present essay hopes to demonstrate. But before investigating päsah, as well as the noun pesah, a bit more background on the use of avian imagery for deity. "You have seen what I did to the Egyptians, and how I bore you on eagles' wings and brought you to myself" (Exod 19:4). So the Lord described his guidance of Israel by the Glory-cloud at the exodus. Moses used this figure of the eagle and its young when reviewing these same historical realities in Deut 32:10-11. Signifi- cantly, in this Song of Moses God's shepherding of Israel through the wil- derness by the theophanic cloud is depicted in the distinctive language of Gen 1:2: as a birdlike hovering (rähap) over the unstructured world (töhu).1 Bird imagery suggested itself naturally for this Glory theophany. First, it was a cloud formation, and clouds and birds belong to the same sphere of the sky, across which they fly. Isaiah parallels the two: "Who are these that fly as a cloud and as doves to their windows?" (Isa 60:8).

  • Pastor Gary Glenney DOCTRINE of ANGELS Revised Nov
    Pastor Gary Glenney DOCTRINE OF ANGELS Revised Nov. 22, 2011 1. DEFINITION: The word angel denotes the order of celestial beings quite distinct from humanity and from the Godhead. These creatures are superior to mankind in ability through creation (Heb. 2:7, 9 with Ezek. 28:12, 13). They are mentioned at least 108 times in the Old Testament and 165 times in the New Testament. 2. ETYMOLOGY: a. The word or designation “angel” connotes “a messenger.” (1) a)/ggeloj - angelos (Greek noun) - messenger, envoy, servant (Matt. 1:20; 25:41; Gal. 3:19) (2) Ea*l=m^ - male’ach (Hebrew noun) - a sent one, messenger, priest (Psa. 78:49; 91:11; 103:20; 104:5; 148:2) (3) Ea*l=m^ - male’ach (Aramaic noun) - an angel (Dan. 3:28; 6:22) b.Other designations for “angels:” (1) <yh!!l)a$h*-yn@B== - bene ha’elohim (Hb. n. pl.) - sons of god (Gen. 6:2; Job 1:6; Job 2:1; 38:7) This phrase is never used of men in the Old Testament.

  • The Destroying Angel
    THE DESTROYING ANGEL SHAUL BAR The particular term "destroying angel" ( malakh ha-mashhit ) occurs twice in the Bible, in II Samuel 24:16 and its parallel, I Chronicles 21:15. Other allu- sions to this "destroyer" (mashhit ), can be found in Exodus 12:23 and Isaiah 54:16. The story of Sennacherib's siege of Jerusalem may also allude to a destroying angel (II Kgs. 19:35; Isa. 37:36; II Chron. 32:21), although the term used there is simply malakh . In the cultures of the ancient Near East, gods were believed to be responsible for death and destruction. The Bible, however, does not portray such a configuration. Instead, the destructive agents act according to God's instruction: they are His messengers and it is the Lord who initiates death and destruction. We will see that the Bible refers to the angelic forces of destruction in a way that negates the ideas of neigh- boring cultures. DAVID AND THE DESTROYING ANGEL The destroying angel is sent to afflict Israel with pestilence, in punishment for David's census (II Sam. 24:16). According to the account in the Book of Samuel, the destructive angel was by the threshing floor of Araunah the Jebusite (ibid.). The parallel account in Chronicles provides a more extensive description of what happened. David looks up and sees the angel of the Lord standing between heaven and earth, with a drawn sword in his hand directed against Jerusalem (I Chron. 21:16). This description of the angel draws on earlier biblical literature, the story of Joshua before the conquest of Jericho (Josh.

  • Who Destroyed the First Born of Egypt? a Priest Psalm 78: 43-48 Describes the Plagues That Fell Upon Egypt Before the People of Israel Was Delivered from Slavery
    Who Destroyed the First Born of Egypt? A Priest Psalm 78: 43-48 describes the plagues that fell upon Egypt before the people of Israel was delivered from slavery. We read: “How he had wrought his signs in Egypt, and his wonders in the field of Zoan: And had turned their rivers into blood; and their floods, that they could not drink. He sent divers sorts of flies among them, which devoured them; and frogs, which destroyed them. He gave also their increase unto the caterpillar, and their labour unto the locust. He destroyed their vines with hail, and their sycamore trees with frost. He gave up their cattle also to the hail, and their flocks to hot thunderbolts” Psalm 78:43-48 Now please read verse 49 carefully: “He cast upon them the fierceness of his anger, wrath, and indignation, and trouble, by sending evil angels among them” Psalm 78:49 Here we are told that the plagues that fell upon Egypt involved evil angels which can only mean they were demons. God in heaven certainly has no evil angels. Now, can we find what the evil angels were doing in Egypt at the time of plagues? Let us read Exodus 12:12, “For I will pass through the land of Egypt this night, and will smite all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beast; and against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgment: I am the LORD” Exodus 12:12 “I WILL PASS THROUGH... AND WILL SMITE... I AM THE LORD”. From this verse it is clear that the tenth plague or destruction of the firstborn in Egypt was the judgment of the Lord.

  • Is the Archangel Michael a Manifestation of the Lord Jesus Christ?
    Is the Archangel Michael a manifestation of the Lord Jesus Christ? Michael the Archangel is identified three times in Daniel (10.13,21; 12.1), once in Revelation (12.7) and once in Jude (9) where his unique title is conferred. In Daniel, he is described as 'one of the chief princes', and 'the great prince'. In Revelation he is described as the captain of the heavenly angelic hosts in their fierce conflict with Satan and his armies. In Daniel, he supports and sustains the angelic messenger sent to reveal Daniel's last prophecy in his conflict with demonic lords of Persia and Greece. Some commentators claim Michael is a manifestation of the Lord Jesus in a theophany, a preincarnate appearance. What is the evidence? First, it is important to emphasise that there is a razor sharp difference between created angels and the Uncreated Word of God. Hebrews 1:4-14 makes this abundantly plain. The worship of created angels is an exceedingly serious sin, Romans 1.25, Colossians 2.18. Even John the Apostle dazzled and amazed by the brightness of the beings before him needs to reproved twice for coming dangerously close to it ! (Rev.19.10 and 22.9) However there is a mysterious though easily proven phenomenon in the Old Testament, where One Angel or Messenger ) indicates the Son of God, Who is worshipped, prayed to and treated as Yahveh, in a way that would be completely inappropriate, idolatrous and dangerous if applied to a mere created angel. Jacob describes Him as his Redeemer (Gen.48.16), Isaiah describes Him as the Angel of His Presence, again in reference to redemption, love, pity and salvation (Isa.63.9), Moses speaks of Him Who dwells in the thornbush of Sinai, showing good favour (Deut.33.16), when the Angel of the Lord spoke with God's voice, saying, 'I am the God of your father' (Acts.7.30-32, Ex.3.4,6,8), and Hosea describes Jacob's angelic encounter at Peniel as a direct experience of God (Hos.

    Naked Bible Podcast Episode 270: Exodus 11-12 Naked Bible Podcast Transcript Episode 270 Exodus 11-12 May 5, 2019 Teacher: Dr. Michael S. Heiser (MH) Host: Trey Stricklin (TS) Episode Summary Exodus 11 and 12 focus on the final plague against Egypt, the death of the firstborn, and the institution of the Passover (Hebrew: pesaḥ / pesach). Like the other plagues, the death of the firstborn is an assault on not only the pharaoh and his people, but on Maat, the principle of cosmic order to be maintained by the gods of Egypt. This episode touches on that polemic, but also on the meaning and typology of Passover and the “Destroyer” of the final plague. Transcript TS: Welcome to the Naked Bible Podcast, Episode 270: Exodus 11-12. I’m the layman, Trey Stricklin, and he’s the scholar, Dr. Michael Heiser. Hey, Mike, how are you doing this week? MH: Pretty good. It’s been a fun and productive week. TS: Well, Mike, I forgot to mention that I watched The Ten Commandments over the weekend. That was fun, so I feel like I’m ready for the Passover and… MH: [laughs] The pump is primed? [laughs] We actually talked about that. TS: Yeah, and I actually did it. It was as good as I remembered. MH: My daughter and her husband watched Prince of Egypt the evening before Easter dinner, so we were sitting around talking about it. “I’ll bet Trey is watching The Ten Commandments.” [laughs] TS: Yeah, and you would be correct!

  • Chapter Fourteen the Rewritten Aqedah of Jewish Tradition
    Chapter Fourteen The Rewritten Aqedah of Jewish Tradition The extraordinary prominence of the story of the binding of Isaac in Gen 22:1-19 in rabbinic Judaism stands in stark contrast to the utter absence of direct references to it anywhere else in the Hebrew Bible. In part, the difference reflects the greater emphasis upon the Patriarchs in rabbinic theology than in the thinking of the prophets and the other nonPentateuchal biblical authors. This explanation, in turn, reflects an even deeper difference between the forms of biblical religion and those of the rabbis: because in rabbinic theology the Pentateuch was preeminent over the rest of the Bible and prior to it not only in date of authorship but in value as well, even relatively brief and uneventful episodes in the Pentateuch can command more extensive attention in rabbinic literature than non-Pentateuchal passages that are longer and seemingly more momentous. The intensely exegetical character of rabbinic Judaism, which it inherited from its Second Temple forebears, ensured that the relative obscurity of the aqedah within the Hebrew Bible would not be the last word of Jewish tradition on the question of the righteous father's willingness to sacrifice his beloved son. That willingness, together with the son's glad and unqualified acceptance of his own divinely mandated death, became a theme of enormous import in Judaism in the Roman period, including the forms of Judaism that served as the matrix of Christianity. A foretaste of the importance of the aqedah in post-biblical Judaism can be gotten, however, in the two biblical passages that betray exegetical interest in the episode even before the canon was closed or, for that matter, the Pentateuch completed.
