An Early Christian's Perspective on the Mysteries of the Rosary 1 An Early Christian’s Perspective on the Mysteries of the Rosary April 27, 2018 2 This work is dedicated to my mother who has never stopped praying for me. She has shown me the way to Jesus is through his mother. Ichthys1,2 1 ΙΧΘΥΣ (ichthys), a Greek word meaning “fish” is an acronym for "Ἰησοῦς Χριστός, Θεοῦ Υἱός,Σωτήρ" (Iēsous Christos, Theou Yios, Sōtēr; which translates into English as "Jesus Christ, Son of God, Saviour". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ichthys 2 The symbol of the fish was used by early Christian to recognize other Christians. A Christian would draw either the top or bottom line in the dust and if the other person was a Christian he or she would complete the symbol.

Gainesville, FL 32603 305-766-5734 941-227-5997 stevengrhodes @yahoo.com REM: Order of Day 8 Chanukah: Circa 1930’s Europe. (hidden until ACT III) REM: WATCH JUDITH MOVIES ON NETFLIX. REM: WATCH ADAM AT SOLSTICE MOVIES OJ NETFLIX REM: WATCH LEVIATHAN MOVIES ON NETFLIX 1 REM PROLOGUE: READ BY NARRATOR (RABBI DALLMAN) 1 Hanukkah is celebrated for eight days beginning on the 25th of Kislev (mid- to late-December). Since Hanukkah falls four days before the new moon (the darkest night of the month) and close to the winter solstice (the longest night of the year), it seems only natural that a key element of this holiday is light. In fact, one of its other names is the "Feast of Lights" (along with "Feast of Dedication" and "Feast of the Maccabees"). The only essential ritual of Hanukkah is the lighting of candles. The Hanukkah candles are held in a chanukkiah, a candelabra that holds nine candles. (The chanukkiah is different from a menorah, which is a candelabra that holds seven candles and is pictured on the official emblem of the State of Israel.) The candle (shammash) in the middle of the chanukkiah is used to light the others. The idea of a seder is of course best known from Passover, where a progression of 15 steps shapes a complicated process that allows us to re-live and re-experience the Exodus from Egypt. In the same way, we are used to daily and Shabbat services flowing through a fixed progression of prayers found in the siddur [prayerbook] (from the same root as seder).

  • A Battle 2000 Years in the Making Luke 3:1-2
    John the Baptist A battle 2000 years in the making Luke 3:1-2 EUAGGELION KATA LOUKAN Luke 3 1 Now in the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar, when Pontius Pilate was governor of Judea, and Herod was tetrarch of Galilee, and his brother Philip was tetrarch of the region of Ituraea and Trachonitis, and Lysanias was tetrarch of Abilene, 2 in the high priesthood of Annas and Caiaphas, the word of God came to John, the son of Zacharias, in the wilderness. EUAGGELION KATA LOUKAN Genesis 25 •19 Now these are the records of the generations of Isaac, Abraham’s son: Abraham became the father of Isaac; 20 and Isaac was forty years old when he took Rebekah, the daughter of Bethuel the Aramean of Paddan-aram, the sister of Laban the Aramean, to be his wife. 21 Isaac prayed to the Lord on behalf of his wife, because she was barren; and the Lord answered him and Rebekah his wife conceived. 22 But the children struggled together within her; and she said, “If it is so, why then am I this way?” So she went to inquire of the Lord. 23 The Lord said to her, “Two nations are in your womb; And two peoples will be separated from your body; And one people shall be stronger than the other; And the older shall serve the younger.” EUAGGELION KATA LOUKAN Genesis 25 24 When her days to be delivered were fulfilled, behold, there were twins in her womb. 25 Now the first came forth red, all over like a hairy garment; and they named him Esau.

  • The Library of the Dead Sea Scroll Qumran Community Scriptorium
    Presentation title as announced in Program Book: “The Theology, Halakhah, Politics, and Esotericism of the DSS Essene Sect Compared with Normative Rabbinic Practices and that of the Second Temple Sadducees” by David B. Levy David B. Levy received a Ph.D. in Jewish philosophy, rabbinics, and biblical studies in 2002. In 1994, he received a M.L.S. from UMCP. He previously served as a librarian and taught in the high school at Ner Israel. David participates in NYMA. One of his websites is at http://student.ccbcmd.edu/~dlevy11/index.html. Description As well as a brief general overview of the DSS library, the differences revealed by the contents of DSS texts in theology between Essenes, Sadducees, and Pharisees will be illustrated by looking at the topics of predestination, immortality, dualism, apocalyptic messianism, and angelology. Differences in halakhah will be illustrated by touching on the laws regarding halah, peru u-revu, pikuah nefesh, li-fenim mi-shurat ha-din, oils, mikvaot immersions, harvesting the omer, tevel yom relating to the parah adumah, and some differences in Shabbat observances. The method of my approach is to compare DSS theology, politics, and halakhah with the evolution of mainstream Rabbinic traditions across history in order to illuminate, enhance, and increase our knowledge about Rabbinic observances, history, and practices The Library of the Dead Sea Scroll Qumran Community Scriptorium: Politics, Theology, and Halakhah of the DSS Essene sect compared with Normative Rabbinic Halakhah, Customs, and Tradition I.

  • List of High Priests of Israel 1 List of High Priests of Israel
    List of High Priests of Israel 1 List of High Priests of Israel This page gives one list (partly traditional) of the High Priests of Ancient Israel up to the destruction of the Second Temple in 70 AD. Because of a lack of historical data, this list is incomplete and there may be gaps. Line of the High Priests of Israel The office did not always pass directly from father to son. The high priests, like all Jewish priests, belonged to the Aaronic line. The Bible mentions the majority of high priests before the captivity, but does not give a complete list of office holders. Lists would be based on various historical sources. In several periods of gentile rule, high priests were appointed and removed by kings. Still, most high priests came from the Aaronic line. One exception is Menelaus, who may not have been from the Tribe of Levi at all, but from the Tribe of Benjamin. From the Exodus to the Babylonian Exile • Aaron, during the Exodus from Egypt • Eleazar, son of Aaron • Phinehas, son of Eleazar • Abishua, son of Phineas According to the Samaritans, Shesha is incerted, said to be the son of Abishua and father to Bukki. A traditional list of the Jewish High Priests • Bukki, son of Abishua-ancestor of Ezra • Uzzi, son of Bukki • Eli, descendant of Itamar, son of Aaron [1] • Ahitub, son of Phinehas and grandson of Eli • Ahijah, son of Ahitub • Ahimelech, son of Ahitub, High Priest during the reign of King Saul; killed at Nob by Doeg; part of the curse on the House of Eli - that none of Eli's male descendants would live to old age - was fulfilled with the death of Ahimelech.
