    "^ ' THE STANDARD SERIES. ^ ^ A CRITICAL AND EXEGETICAL COMMENTARY ON THE BOOK OF EXODUS, WITH A NEW TRANSLATION. c/^ BY JAMES G-f MURPHY, D.D. T.C.D., PROFESSOR OF HEBREW, BELFAST.

PREFACE TO THE AMERICAN EDITION. The Rev. Db. Muephy has, by long, faithful, and efeective discharge of his duties as an instructor, secured the confidence of the British public. A minister of the Gospel, and a useful and edifying preacher, he became known to a generation, now in middle life, as an efEective teacher in the Royal Academical I^titution, Belfast, Ireland, from which for many years went forth the educated men who have, like Lord Cairns in England, and many in America, India, and Australia, rendered distinguished public service in all the professions. Nearly forty years ago the General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church in Ireland decided on the establishment of a theological college, substantially the same in plan and relations with Princeton and Yale seminaries— in close sympathy with adjoining colleges, and at the same time under the control of the Church. To the chair of Hebrew Dr. Murphy was appointed. His career has been uniform, useful in a high degree, and eminently influential in promoting the critical and exegetical study of the Old Testa- ment. He has reached the period of life when most men are supposed to be entitled to honorable rest but his energies ; have suffered no abatement, and they who see him among his students, or taking his part in the benevolent work of the great centre with which he has been so long identified, or enjoying summer leisure among books and scholars in London, would hardly realize that he has been a foremost and most labori- ous educator for half a century.

  • We Are How We Eat: a Jewish Approach to Food and Sustainability by Rabbi Yonatan Neril and Rabbi Yedidya (Julian) Sinclair
    We are How We Eat: A Jewish Approach to Food and Sustainability By Rabbi Yonatan Neril and Rabbi Yedidya (Julian) Sinclair The beginning of the Torah makes clear the centrality of eating to human existence: “And the Lord God commanded man, saying, "Of every tree of the garden you may freely eat. But of the Tree of Knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat of it, for on the day that you eat thereof, you shall surely die" (Genesis 2:16-17). Adam and Eve transgressed this command with the first sin – eating from the Tree. Rabbi Tsadok HaKohen teaches that the Tree of Life represents holy eating, while the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil represents eating suffused with physical pleasure.1 Based on this, Sarah Yehudit Schneider, a contemporary teacher of Torah in Jerusalem, writes that humanity's first sin was not Adam and Eve's eating of forbidden fruit, but rather the way they ate it. The Tree of Knowledge… was not a tree or a food or a thing at all. Rather it was a way of eating. Whenever a person grabs self-conscious pleasure from the world, he falls, at that moment, from God consciousness....Whenever we eat without proper kavanna (intention) we repeat this original sin. The primary fixing of human civilization is to learn to eat in holiness. A Jewish Approach to Eating In a pivotal moment in the book of Genesis, Esau returns tired from the field and encounters Jacob, who has prepared a red lentil stew. Esau says to him, “Pour me (haliteni) some of that red red stuff,”2 and agrees to sell his birthright in exchange for the stew.

Moshe to take a census of the warrior-age men, Besides leaving us more confused (at first Bincluding the commandment not to count the glance), there would seem to be a fundamental Tribe of Levi among them (1:49). He was then told that problem with the Chizkuni quoting this Midrash to the Leviim were responsible for taking care of the explain our verse (1:54); this Midrash is explaining a Mishkan, including making sure that no one totally different verse (2:34), answering questions that approached the Mishkan inappropriately (1:53).

    Reproduced from the Library of the Editor of www.theSamaritanUpdate.com Copyright 2011 The Scattered Nation , Past, Present, and Future. Edited by Carl Schwartz Volume III. 1868: London Elliot Stock, 62, Paternoster Row Printed by Yates and Alexander, Symonds Inn and Church Passage, Chancery Lane. [Jan. 1, 1868] (p. 49) THE MOST ANCIENT MANUSCRIPT IN THE WORLD. "THERE is an intimate relation existing between the word-made scripture and the word- made flesh, or the living and written word." "We must confess that Judaism, as taught by Moses and the prophets, is the foundation on which Christianity is built." "If you separate Christ from the Old Testament, you may get a more or less beautifully painted human ideal, a perfect man according to human or earthly conception, but you have lost the God- man, whom God alone could reveal to man, and who alone could lead man to God." "Israel is not the shadow fulfilled and absorbed in the Church, but the basis on which the Church rests." These and similar other principles which are gathered from THE SCATTERED NATION , June 1, 1867, show the importance of our subject, "The most Ancient Book of the World," being a manuscript written on what is generally called "parchment," in characters of the ancient Hebrew coins, and containing " the law of Moses," in its original form. We will divide the subject in several points. (1) The place or locality where this book was preserved.
