The image of the Golden Calf haunts the commentaries that thread through Leviticus. This catastrophic episode, in which the Israelites (freed from Egyptian slavery and forty days after their momentous encounter with God at Mount Sinai) worship a pagan idol while Moses is receiving the Torah from God on the mountaintop, gives the mostly legalistic text a unique depth and resonance. According to midrashic tradition, the post-traumatic effects of the sin of the Golden Calf linger through the generations, the sin to be “paid off” in small increments through time.

In our modern age the biblical Genesis flood account has been probed and analyzed for answers to scientific, apologetic, and historical questions. It is a text that has called forth flood geology, fueled searches for remnants of the ark on Mount Ararat, and inspired a full-size replica of Noah's ark in a biblical theme park. Some claim that the very veracity of Scripture hinges on a particular reading of the flood narrative. But do we understand what we are reading? Longman and Walton urge us to ask, what might the biblical author have been saying to his ancient audience?

With sound scholarship and her own vivid translations from the Hebrew, Old Testament professor Ellen F. Davis teaches us a spiritually engaged method of listening to scripture.

Good Book is what happens when a regular guy actually reads the book on which his religion, his culture, and his world are based. Along the way, he grapples with the most profound theological questions: Does God prefer obedience or good deeds? And the most unexpected ones: Why are so many women in the Bible prostitutes? Why does God love bald men so much? Is Samson really that stupid? Good Book is an irreverent, enthralling journey through the world's most important work of literature.

The book of Hebrews can be intimidating for modern-day Christians due to its connection to Old Testament text. However, once understood, this New Testament epistle offers great insights into the superiority and sufficiency of Jesus―rightly justifying his place as high priest. In this addition to the New Testament Theology series, scholar Dennis E. Johnson highlights the main biblical-theological themes of Hebrews. Johnson explores how Jesus fulfills perfect priesthood by becoming the covenant mediator and the trailblazer who leads his people into a better inheritance.

זה סיפור מסתורי למדי, על גיורה של ממלכה עתיקה — סיפור שעובד מחדש על ידי רבי יהודה הלוי באחד מספרי הפילוסופיה המקוריים ביותר בתולדות המסורת היהודית. זה סיפור פשוט למדי, על מלך אובד דרך, ועל חבר חכם שמתווה לו דרך חדשה — חברים שחולקים איתו תובנות שהיו חשובות בזמנם, אך שהן חשובות לא פחות בפתחה של המאה העשרים ואחת. אלא שבחלומו של הכוזרי של הד"ר מיכה גודמן, המסתורין מתפזר והפשטות מתגלה כתחכום. ספר הכוזרי מתפענח כספר מתעתע, שיש בו יותר ממה שהעין רואה. האם עם ישראל באמת קדוש משאר העמים ועליון עליהם? האם ניתן להתבונן בעול ם ולחוש בו את טביעות אצבעותיו של האל?

Genesis 9 teaches that God gave moral law to all nations after the Flood. This is called Noahide Law. The apostle Paul taught that the Law of Moses, given at Mount Sinai, was added to Noahide Law to create a government structure for ancient Israel. Gentile nations were never under this Mosaic Covenant, and the Mosaic Covenant was set aside for the Jewish believers in Messiah at Jesus’ first coming. This is taught by Protestant, Roman Catholic, and Eastern Orthodox denominations, as well as most cults.

In many cities across America, the Black Hebrew Israelites stand on street corners preaching their false doctrine that Black people in America are the true Israelites. In order to get to this conclusion, they must misinterpret scriptures and ignore significant elements of history. But this is just the tip of the iceberg: They often preach hatred for Europeans and other ethnic groups, and that adherence to the Law of Moses is the only way to be saved. This book is a practical guide to understanding some of the Black Hebrew Israelites' fundamental teachings and how to refute them.

The book of Hebrews is a General Epistle (Apostolic Letter). It was written mainly to the Hebrew believers. The author is anonymous, although either Paul or Barnabas was traditionally accepted as the author. It was written approximately 67 A.D. Its purpose was to present the Lord Jesus Christ as perfect and superior in comparison to anything Judaism and the old covenant had to offer. The author was writing to a group of Christians who were under intense persecution and some were contemplating a return to Judaism.

God did not curse Eve or limit women in any way. Sadly, modern translations of Genesis 3:16 make it look like God did both. God didn't curse Adam either, but God did speak to him in a way exactly parallel to the other rebel in the Garden of Eden, the serpent-tempter. And two curses were imposed by God because of them.

האם החיים הם הבלים וסבל או אושר עילאי ? האם ישנה משמעות למעשינו תחת השמש? מה יהיה בסופנו ? האומנם יש יתרון לחוכמה ? מפני מה לא ניתן להקים משטר צודק ? מהם קשרי הגומלין בין אושר לעושר ומדוע איש אוהב כסף לא ישבע כסף ? מה מקור הרגשות ומה אנו יודעים על התשוקות ? האם ידיעת המוות יכולה לשמש כמדריך לחיים ? הכתוב במגילת קהלת מזמין את הקורא לחשוב בעצמו על כל הסוגיות שבהן התחבט המשורר החכם, מחבר המגילה. קהלת אינו מורה לנו לחשוב כמוהו וגם אינו מתווה לנו מסלול הליכה בעקבותיו.

Hebrews is one of the books of the New Testament. The text does not mention the name of its author, but was traditionally attributed to Paul the Apostle.
