Salmon River Dives and Spring-Run Chinook Symposium Forks of Salmon, Salmon River, CA July 24-27 Front Salmonid Restoration Federation Summer 2007 10th Annual Coho Confab August 17-19, 2007 in Petrolia, CA on the North Coast The Coho Confab is a symposium to explore watershed restoration, learn restoration techniques to recover coho salmon populations, and to network with other fish-centric people. To confabulate literally means to informally chat or to fabricate to compensate for gaps in ones memory. Not to imply that restorationists are prone to hyperbole when recounting the size of a rescued fish, the magnitude of the waterfall coming out of the culvert, or the heroics of a particular restoration job. The Confab is an informal gathering of fishheads that allows for participants and instructors to learn from each other’s experience. Participants learn skills and practices that can be applied to restore The 10th Annual Coho Confab will feature tours of the beautiful Mattole River estuary. habitat in their home watershed.

  • Rahab: a Woman of Faith” Matthew 1:1-17, Joshua 2:1-1 4 Wayne J
    Old Testament Readings: Psalm 130:1-8, Jeremiah 31:31-34 New Testament Reading: Luke 1:68-79 The Five Women in the Lineage of Jesus “Rahab: A Woman of Faith” Matthew 1:1-17, Joshua 2:1-1 4 Wayne J. Edwards, Pastor Because of her profession, Rahab, a Canaanite woman, was always identified as a harlot. Because of her expressed faith in a forgiving and merciful God, Rahab became a heroine to her family, the first Gentile to be welcomed into God’s family, and one of the mothers in the lineage of Jesus. Even though she was a Gentile, the writer of Hebrews included Rahab in the Hebrew Hall of Faith; identifying her as the woman who did not perish, like those who were disobedient. Even though she worked as a prostitute, and lied to the king’s messengers, James, the half-brother of Jesus, said Rahab was “justified by her works when she received the messengers and sent them another way.” The reason the story of Rahab is in the Scriptures is to show us that God delights to display the glory of His grace, and the wonders of His love, to and through the least likely candidates. The New Testament lists two genealogies of Jesus. Luke 3:23-38 is the ascending record of Jesus’ family tree, beginning with the birth of Jesus to Mary, and then tracing His lineage back 77-generations to Adam. Luke wrote his genealogy of Jesus to prove His humanity. Matthew 1:1-17 is the descending record of Jesus’ family tree, beginning with Abraham and tracing his lineage forward 42-generations to Joseph.

  • Rahab in the Book of Joshua and Other Texts of the Bible
    IOSR Journal Of Humanities And Social Science (IOSR-JHSS) Volume 19, Issue 3, Ver. II (Mar. 2014), PP 19-29 e-ISSN: 2279-0837, p-ISSN: 2279-0845. www.iosrjournals.org Rahab in the Book of Joshua and other Texts of the Bible Obiorah Mary Jerome Department of Religion and Cultural Studies, University of Nigeria, Nsukka, Nigeria Abstract: Christian Sacred Scripture embodies some puzzling episodes which human minds can grasp only through similar faith that inspired its writers. The story of Rahah, presented as a prostitute in the Book of Joshua, provides such enigma. This woman rose from being a prostitute to a heroine for she was numbered among the Ancestresses of Jesus Christ. Her singular manifestation of faith in God and subsequent interpretations of this in the two parts of the Christian Bible are the focus of this paper. It is discovered that God’s ways are not our ways, for the Creator can choose anyone and at any time to accomplish his design. Keywords: Faith in God, Jericho, The Book of Joshua, Rahab, Spies I. INTRODUCTION At its face value the New Testament perspectives and interpretations of Rahab‟s story and personality as presented in the Book of Joshua appear surprising or even misapprehension of reality. She was a marginal woman with unusual character. In fact, the Hebrew version of Joshua 2 describes her as ‟iššāh zônāh – a professional secular prostitute distinct from qědēšāh – “sacred prostitute”; the latter would have been more respectful. It is instructive to observe that the texts of the New Testament and early Christian writers that appropriated the attitude of this woman towards the Israelite spies in projecting their theological thrusts preserve her Old Testament designation or identity when they still describe her as hē pornē “prostitute”.

  • Our Savior's Family Tree
    Our Savior’s Family Tree Introduction Have you researched your own genealogy? Why are people interested in knowing their family tree? Our Savior’s Family Tree. The Gospel writers Matthew and Luke each provide a record of the genealogy of Jesus. Matthew’s genealogy traces the Savior’s line from Abraham to Jesus. Luke’s genealogy traces the line of the Savior from Jesus all the way back to “Adam, son of God.” As we survey our Savior’s family tree we see names we quickly recognize as key figures in the Old Testament. Other may be less familiar. Scan Matthew 1:1-17 and Luke 3:23-38. Which names do you recognize? The Offspring of a Woman Genesis 3:15 – “And I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring and hers; he will crush your head, and you will strike his heel.” Genesis 3:15 is the first gospel promise. To whom was it originally spoken? We have the advantage of knowing how Scripture unfolds. We know that Jesus is the fulfillment of this verse. How well do you think Adam and Eve grasped this promise? Who was the first offspring of Adam and Eve? (Genesis 4:1) Noah Luke 3:36 – “…The son of Shem, the son of Noah…” Genesis 6:5-8 – “5 The Lord saw how great man’s wickedness on the earth had become, and that every inclination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil all the time. 6 The Lord was grieved that he had made man on the earth, and his heart was filled with pain.

    Luke 3 The Mission of John the Baptist (Isaiah 40:1-5; Matthew 3:1-12; Mark 1:1-8; John 1:19-28) 1Now in the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar, Pontius Pilate being governor of Judaea, and Herod being tetrarch of Galilee, and his brother Philip tetrarch of Ituraea and of the region of Trachonitis, and Lysanias the tetrarch of Abilene, Caesar was King in Rome over all of Roman territories; Pilate a military man was governor over the southern part of Israel, Judaea-Jerusalem, while Herod was tetrarch over Galilee; a fourth part of the Roman possession in the middle east. Dictionaries - Easton's Bible Dictionary - Tetrarch Tetrarch [N] [H] [S] strictly the ruler over the fourth part of a province; but the word denotes a ruler of a province generally ( Matthew 14:1 ; Luke 3:1 Luke 3:19 ; 9:7 ; Acts 13:1 ). Herod and Phasael, the sons of Antipater, were the first tetrarchs in Palestine. Herod the tetrarch had the title of king ( Matthew 14:9 ). Herod was actually known as Antipas or properly (Antipater) a devious and treacherous man who was a son of Herod the Great. Picking up again at the end of this verse; 1 “and his brother Philip tetrarch of Ituraea and of the region of Trachonitis, and Lysanias the tetrarch of Abilene,” Phillip, Herod’s brother also the son of Herod the Great was tetrarch over Ituraea; and was said to be more fare and benevolent than his brother Antipater. Strong’s Concordance Phonetic Spelling: (ee-too-rah'-yah) Definition: Ituraea, a region North of Pal Usage: Ituraean, an adjective applied to a district also called Trachonitis, about 60 miles east of the Sea of Galilee, and partly inhabited by the nomad tribe called Ituraeans.

Ray, Jr. Introduction nterest in the biblical genealogies was cultivated as early as the post- exilic period. The authors of the various Apocryphal (Tob 1:1–2), I Pseudepigraphal (Jubilees 4:1–33), NT (Matt 1:1–17), and Rabbinic writings (b. Pes 62b) produced at that time considered this type of literature to be historically accurate. This was the dominant position until the latter half of the nineteenth century when serious doubts were raised concerning the use of this material for writing history. Ancient Near Eastern parallels to the early parts of Genesis led scholars to suspect that their biblical counterparts might have been extracted from these early legends and myths. It was also discovered through ethnographical data, that tribal societies, like ancient Israel, 1 used genealogies to express political and social relationships between families, and 1 For the latest critique on tribalism, see Piotr Bienkowski, “‘Tribalism’ and ‘Segmentary Society’ in Iron Age Transjordan,” in Studies on Iron Age Moab and Neighbouring Areas in Honour of Michèle Daviau , ed.

  • The Genealogical List in the Book of Ruth: a Symbolic Approach
    THE GENEALOGICAL LIST IN THE BOOK OF RUTH: A SYMBOLIC APPROACH ZVI RON The Book of Ruth concludes with a genealogical list tracing the ancestry of King David all the way from Perez son of Judah. Now these are the generations of Perez: Perez begot Hezron; and He- zron begot Ram, and Ram begot Amminadab; and Amminadab begot Nahshon, and Nahshon begot Salma; and Salmon begot Boaz, and Boaz begot Obed; and Obed begot Jesse, and Jesse begot David. (Ruth 4:18-22). This genealogical list is constructed in a way that indicates a particular symbolism. In this article, we will note the symbols found in the list and de- termine at what point the list shifts from a historic record to a symbolic one. Additionally, we will see that the symbolic approach to this list solves a ma- jor chronological difficulty. There are ten people listed in this genealogy, paralleling other such lists in Genesis. In Genesis 5, we have a genealogical list of the ten generations from Adam to Noah. Genesis 11:10-26 contains another genealogical list of ten generations, from Shem to Abraham. The first major era is from the Creation to the Flood. The next list is found after the description of the nations des- cended from Noah (Gen. 10) and the Tower of Babel narrative (11:1-9), when the world is divided into many languages. These two sections indicate that the world is now divided into many different groups. The genealogical list in Genesis 11 covers the period from the Flood until the birth of Abra- ham, patriarch of the Israelite people, the group on which the Bible will focus from this chapter onward.

A harlot who lived in a ​ ​ ​ house which formed part of the town wall of Late Bronze Age Jericho. Joshua’s two spies lodged with her. When they were pursued she hid them under drying stalks of flax on the roof. The pursuers were sent off on a false trail and then Rahab made terms with her lodgers. She knew that Jericho must fall to the servants of Yahweh and so she asked for protection for herself and her family. The spies escaped from a window, with her help. When Jericho was destroyed the family was saved and Rahab joined up with the Israelites (Jos. 2:6, 17, 22–24). In the NT the writer to the Hebrews includes her among ancient examples of faith in God (Heb. 11:31, and she is quoted as one who was justified by her works in Jas. 2:25.

    Surveying the Text: Ruth Douglas Wilson Christ Church - Moscow, ID Sermon #1820 - A.D. January 4. 2015 INTRODUCTION: The book of Ruth seems like a quaint little story, off by the side of the road, but it is actually a crucial part of the story of the coming Messiah. The fact that these events were recorded long before the arrival of David shows the sense of expectancy that attends this story. THE TEXT: “And Aram begat Aminadab; and Aminadab begat Naasson; and Naasson begat Salmon; And Salmon begat Booz of Rachab; and Booz begat Obed of Ruth; and Obed begat Jesse; And Jesse begat David the king; and David the king begat Solomon of her that had been the wife of Urias” (Matt. 1:4–6). SUMMARY OF THE TEXT: When we do research in our family tree, which is usually an innocent activity, we are not generally looking for the horse thieves. We like to find distinguished ancestors, like the great great-grandfather who held Robert E. Lee’s horse at Appomattox. But among the Jews it was different—their interest in genealogies was rooted in their desire to find a distinguished descendant. A good portion of the Old Testament consists of telling us the story of how God was narrowing down the options, leaning into the future. First, He chose Abraham (Gen. 12:1). Then from Abraham’s sons He chose Isaac over Ishmael (Gen. 21:12). After that, so that God’s sovereignty might be highlighted, He chose the youngest twin Jacob over his brother Esau (Gen.
