Do the Feasts have a central purpose or connection between them? Maybe they have a hidden message for us? Do they point to our future? And if so, what are they pointing to and when will it happen? Is this message meant only for the people of Israel or is it meant for me personally as well? Are the meanings of the Feasts intended only for the people of Israel or for the whole world? All these questions and more will be discussed in this new pamphlet about God's Feasts. -
Israel's election, calling and history make up a big part of scripture. It could be said that they belong to the "DNA of the Bible." But why is it then that the Christian narrative about the Messiah, Israel and the nations, often seemed to have and sometimes even still las a different “genetic structure”? Does Israel - together with its election and promises – leave God’s stage through a side door, when Jesus appears on stage? Does a changing of roles take place, within a different story? Does the Messiah function within it as some kind of “black hole” in which the eternal election and calling of Israel disappear? How do we read God’s way? -
The Atlas has beautiful satellite pictures an detaild historical markings. No other atlas features so many large maps with nearly every biblical event in Israel depuicted with such great detail. Each map is accompanied by commentary that draws out the geographical significance of the history to bring the story alive to the reader. -
One of the chief purposes of the commentary is to set forth the reason that led the Committee, or a majority of the members of the Committee, to adopt certain variant readings for inclusion in the text and to relegate certain others readings to the apparatus. On the basis of a record of the voting of the Committee, as well as, for most sessions, more or less full notes of the discussions that proceeded the voting, the present writer has sought to frame and express concisely (a) the main problem or the problem involved in each set of variants and (b) the Committees 's evaluation and resolution of those problems.
