Download or read book The Books of the Old Testament in Your Palm written by Ayuba Mshelia, and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2022-11-30 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book is about introductions to the books of the Old Testament of the Bible, which is a compendium of God's divine Message to mankind that is uniquely written by forty divinely select people as His spokesmen. How many of these forty select men wrote the Tanakh or the Old Testament? This synopsis is a guide to the types of questions asked in writing this book. Who, for example, is the author of the Torah or the Pentateuch? Are all the books written by one person? Or are there others? What are the themes and purposes of each book? Does the difference in the arrangement and number of books between the original Hebrew Tanakh and our Old Testament make any difference to its being canon or faith? What are "the books of the kingdoms?" Why don't you see such titles in the Old Testament? What are the themes of some of the poetical books? For instance, why do good and righteous people suffer and the ungodly prosper? Does God care? How was the first ancient attempt of a holocaust foiled by Hadassah, also known as Esther, a beautiful Jewish orphan who became the queen of King Ahasuerus of Persia? What happened to the culprit? Why was the four-hundred-year period of the judges the most ungodly and apostate in Israel's history. Why was the Davidic covenant threatened by Bathsheba's marriage and Absalom's insurrection? What is your take on Daniel's "seventy weeks" prophecy? (Dan. 9:24). What does the phrase "seven weeks, and threescores and two weeks" mean to you as used in Daniel's prophecy? What about "A time, times, and a half" (Dan. 12:7) appearing in Daniel's prophecy? What does Ezekiel's vision about the "valley of the dry bones" coming to life mean to Israel and to you as a believer? The Old Testament begins with the story of creation and life but ends in Malachi (4:6) with a divine threat of a curse. Are you free from that curse as an individual or still under it? These are the many compelling and poignant questions laboriously dealt with in the book.

Download or read book Behold I AM written by Joyce Lynn Wulf and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2023-11-13 with total page 605 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It was a childlike question, but the answer was as stunning as it was profound. If God is light, what do the primary colors of the rainbow's spectrum signify? The Gospel of John declares in eight mysterious signs that God is light and Jesus Christ in the flesh was God sent to bring the light of true life to us. These enigmatic signs of light, semeion, imply the eight signs' significance pointed to something other than what they appeared. The themes of John's eight signs match the themes of the Feasts given to ancient Israel at Mount Sinai and a sequence of YHWH's covenant names. Behold, I AM is a rich, in-depth study into God's Holyday appointed times, His eight Festivals of Light, what they meant then, what they mean today, and how they are fulfilling prophecy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: David Baron's classic work Zechariah: Visions and Prophecies is considered a giant among expositions of this Old Testament book. The book of Zechariah contains some of the most specific and comprehensive information for the Church concerning end-time events which will occur in Jerusalem and the nations. Zechariah informs us of God's end-time plan for the nation of Israel, of her coming glory andsuffering, of the great battle at the close of this age when the city of Jerusalem will be liberated by Jesus, the great Warrior-King and of his future reign on earth from Jerusalem, the City of Truth (Zech. 8:3). Zechariah's message brought a warning of trouble, yet held great promise for Jerusalem. He prophesied Jerusalem's future glory and suffering, heralding a time when Jewish apostasy would reach its zenith, and then be swiftly followed by Israel's wholehearted devotion to Jesus.

Download or read book The Targum of the Minor Prophets written by and published by Liturgical Press. This book was released on 2024-05-15 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although the term "minor prophets" is a familiar one in English Bible translations, it is not a felicitous one, since it applies as much to Hosea as to Haggai and to Amos as to Obadiah. The Targum offers no such pecking order. Nuggets of importance are as likely to be found in a Targumized "minor" prophet as a "major" one. Included in this volume are the books of Hosea, Joel, Amos, Obadiah, Jonah, Micah, Nahum, Habakkuk, Zephaniah, Haggai, Zechariah, and Malachi. The authors' apparatus in the introduction provides the translational characteristics, theology, life-setting, text and versions, language, rabbinic citations and parallels, dating, manuscripts, and bibliography. A series of indices is also included.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is it possible that a study of the prophets will be able to teach us anything about what is happening in todays world? The answer is a resounding yes! There are four major prophets and twelve minor prophets. Should it happen that any of them, by chance, would be discovered walking our streets today, they would not be found to be out of place. Their collective messages are as valid today as when they were first uttered over three thousand years ago. They are the epitome of those who do not know or respect history are in grave danger of repeating it. Salvation history is the gradual unfolding of Gods plan for all human beings.
