This book was released on 2018-08-31 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Word of God to Jerusalem was that He was extremely jealous for Jerusalem and Zion. He was coming and He would be a wall of fire around her and the glory in her midst.This is reminiscent of His glory in the midst of the burning bush. Moses took off his shoes! At the entrance to the Holy Land Joshua encountered the Captain of the Lord's Host, and he saw YHWH's glory. Joshua took off his shoes. Zechariah wrote that YHWH will possess Judah as His portion in the Holy Land (Zechariah 2:12). From Genesis to Revelation, from the Garden of Eden to the New Jerusalem the Holy Land is a major motif in the Holy Scriptures. This is the estate where God was born as Son of Man. He lived and played, He worked and ministered in the Holy Land. Yeshua was betrayed, beaten, crucified, and He was buried in the Holy Land. He resurrected in the Holy Land and ascended back to His Heavenly Father from the Holy Land. Yeshua is soon to return to the Holy Land to reign as King over the earth. The Holy Land is God's Land. We should take off our shoes!

Download or read book At the Entrance to the Garden of Eden written by Yossi K. Halevi and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2002-06-18 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A brilliantly observed memoir of an unprecedented and remarkable spiritual journey. While religion has fuelled the often violent conflict plaguing the Holy Land, Yossi Klein Halevi wondered whether it could be a source of unity as well. To find the answer, this religious Israeli Jew began a two–year exploration to discover a common language with his Christian and Muslim neighbours. He followed their holiday cycles, befriended Christian monastics and Islamic mystics, and joined them in prayer in monasteries and mosques in Israel, the West Bank, and Gaza. At the Entrance to the Garden of Eden traces that remarkable spiritual journey. Halevi candidly reveals how he fought to reconcile his own fears and anger as a Jew to relate to Christians and Muslims as fellow spiritual seekers. He chronicles the difficulty of overcoming multiple obstacles注eological, political, historical, and psychological注at separate believers of the three monotheistic faiths. And he introduces a diverse range of people attempting to reconcile the dichotomous heart of this sacred place柠struggle central to Israel, but which resonates for us all.
Download or read book From Land to Lands from Eden to the Renewed Earth written by Munther Isaac and published by Langham Publishing. This book was released on 2015-10-14 with total page 427 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The land is an important theme in the Bible. It is a theme through which the whole biblical history found in the Old and New Testaments can be studied and analyzed. Looking at the land in the Bible from its beginnings in the garden of Eden this publication approaches the theme from three distinct perspectives – holiness, the covenant, and the kingdom. Through careful analysis the author recognises that the land has been universalized in Christ, as anticipated in the Old Testament, and as a result promotes a missional theology of the land that underlines the social and territorial dimensions of redemption.

Book excerpt: In his latest book, Bishop Isiah Lawrence Nottage proves that the Garden of Eden was located – or planted in – East Jerusalem, below the Temple Mount/Mount Moriah.

Bishop Nottage also pinpoints the area where Adam and Eve lived after they were expelled from the garden, and he proves it, by pinpointing the scripture where The City Adam is mentioned. In addition, he explains exactly what forbidden fruit Adam and Eve ate. He also considers: What was the tree of the knowledge of good and evil? What was the tree of life in the middle of the garden? What was the exact date Jesus Christ was born? Who is the second Adam? He also explains whom Cain married and the country that is today the land of Nod, where he went. East Jerusalem: The Former Garden of Eden unravels many more mysteries.

Download or read book Holy Land written by Andrew Mayes and published by SPCK. This book was released on 2012-04-10 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Holy Land? draws us into the evocative landscape of the Holy Land itself. Sacred yet scarred, the lands of the Bible stimulate us to think about a range of issues that are both urgent and timeless. In Jerusalem, 'a veritable melting pot of cultures', we meditate on the question, 'What is home?' At the River Jordan, where John the Baptist delivered his radical call to repentance and baptism, we ask, 'Who am I?' In the cave of Christ's burial and resurrection in the Holy Sepulchre, we wonder, 'How can I face the darkness?' Confronted by the vast desolation of the desert, we cry, 'Dare I be alone with God?' And negotiating the obstacle-strewn Road to Emmaus, we consider, 'Am I ready for change?' Holy Land? will benefit those preparing to undertake a physical pilgrimage to the Holy Land, and those seeking a spiritual resource to deepen the life of faith and discipleship.

Download or read book Genesis 1 as Ancient Cosmology written by John H. Walton and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2011-06-23 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ancient Near Eastern mode of thought is not at all intuitive to us moderns, but our understanding of ancient perspectives can only approach accuracy when we begin to penetrate ancient texts on their own terms rather than imposing our own world view. In this task, we are aided by the ever-growing corpus of literature that is being recovered and analyzed. After an introduction that presents some of the history of comparative studies and how it has been applied to the study of ancient texts in general and cosmology in particular, Walton focuses in the first half of this book on the ancient Near Eastern texts that inform our understanding about ancient ways of thinking about cosmology. Of primary interest are the texts that can help us discern the parameters of ancient perspectives on cosmic ontology—that is, how the writers perceived origins. Texts from across the ancient Near East are presented, including primarily Egyptian, Sumerian, and Akkadian texts, but occasionally also Ugaritic and Hittite, as appropriate. Walton’s intention, first of all, is to understand the texts but also to demonstrate that a functional ontology pervaded the cognitive environment of the ancient Near East. This functional ontology involves more than just the idea that ordering the cosmos was the focus of the cosmological texts. He posits that, in the ancient world, bringing about order and functionality was the very essence of creative activity. He also pays close attention to the ancient ideology of temples to show the close connection between temples and the functioning cosmos. The second half of the book is devoted to a fresh analysis of Genesis 1:1–2:4. Walton offers studies of significant Hebrew terms and seeks to show that the Israelite texts evidence a functional ontology and a cosmology that is constructed with temple ideology in mind, as in the rest of the ancient Near East. He contends that Genesis 1 never was an account of material origins but that, as in the rest of the ancient world, the focus of “creation texts” was to order the cosmos by initiating functions for the components of the cosmos. He further contends that the cosmology of Genesis 1 is founded on the premise that the cosmos should be understood in temple terms. All of this is intended to demonstrate that, when we read Genesis 1 as the ancient document it is, rather than trying to read it in light of our own world view, the text comes to life in ways that help recover the energy it had in its original context. At the same time, it provides a new perspective on Genesis 1 in relation to what have long been controversial issues. Far from being a borrowed text, Genesis 1 offers a unique theology, even while it speaks from the platform of its contemporaneous cognitive environment.
