Book Synopsis The Feasts of the Calendar in the Book of Numbers by : Hryhoriy Lozinskyy
Download or read book The Feasts of the Calendar in the Book of Numbers written by Hryhoriy Lozinskyy and published by Mohr Siebeck. This book was released on 2021-12-22 with total page 1 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this monograph, Hryhoriy Lozinskyy studies five feasts contained in Num 28:16-30:1. Each of them is first treated in the light of biblical calendars and other related texts. The calendar in Numbers is later than an earlier version of Leviticus 23; yet the final form of Lev 23:1-44 is also a result of some later additions that took place after Num 28:1-30:1 had been composed. The author also focuses on the history of interpretation: he examines several pseudepigrapha, the Dead Sea Scrolls, and ancient Jewish writers from 200 BCE to 100 CE. He shows how these ancient sources reworked the biblical texts by expansions, clarifications, and omissions. In sum, the calendar in Numbers employs several previous traditions that dealt with the feasts, sacrifices, and calendars in order to compose the detailed list of the offerings for the appointed times. Moreover, it is a text that has been used by many ancient sources, especially in the matter of the sacrifices.

Download or read book Brightest and Best written by Sam Portaro and published by Cowley Publications. This book was released on 1998-01-25 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In these meditations on the lesser feasts and fasts of the church calendar Sam Portaro asks the question, “What do these saints and commemorations have to say to Christians today?” His answers are often surprising and always thought-provoking, with fresh insights into the lives and teachings of those who have gone before us in the Christian faith. The cycle of the year begins in Advent with St. Andrew and ends in late November with Kamehaneha and Emma of Hawaii. Each reflection looks at the scripture readings for the day and focuses on a distinctive attribute of the saint or feast in the light of contemporary questions of faith, mission, and community. Saints of the distant past such as Columba and Agnes, Cyprian and Augustine, Thomas Becket and Catherine of Siena are included, as well as those closer to our own day—Charles Wesley and Julia Emery, Martin Luther King, Jr. and Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Evelyn Underhill and Jonathan Daniels. Following the calendar provided in Lesser Feasts and Fasts, meditations on the holy days of the church seasons are also included, such as All Saints and the Epiphany.” Brightest and Best is designed for a variety of Christian education purposes, including adult forums, confirmation classes, seasonal presentations, clergy groups, and groups of students and young adults. It is equally useful for individuals seeking varied and interesting devotional reading. Although based on the church year, each chapter is discrete and readers can focus on any event or person and begin at any season. Since these pieces began as homilies in a college setting, they are useful as a preaching aid and could be the basis of a homily at a midweek service.

Book excerpt: In the Bible we find God's instructions on how His people should celebrate the Seasonal Feasts. At the Last Supper, Jesus gave the commandment to do this in remembrance of Him and that He would join this meal again in His kingdom. Throughout the Biblical year we see a progression taking place: The Spring-festivals point towards the first coming of Jesus while the Fall-festivals point towards His second coming. The Feast of Tabernacles is the climax of the Fall celebrations, and according to the prophets, the nations will go up to Jerusalem to celebrate this Feast of the Lord. Do we yearn for the ultimate fulfilment of God's purposes on His festive days, so that the Great Feast can begin?

God's Timetable unlocks the hitherto unseen Jewish background to the Apocalypse based on the seven weeks leading up to Pentecost, the Harvest Feast. The meaning of Revelation suddenly becomes clearer. Stramara situates the Book of Revelation in its original context as a prophetic work regarding the end of the world, the final harvest, and Jesus as the fulfillment of expectations.
Book Synopsis Liturgical Feasts and Seasons by : Thomas Merton
Download or read book Liturgical Feasts and Seasons written by Thomas Merton and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2023-01-01 with total page 609 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this third volume of papers from Thomas Merton’s conferences during his decade (1955-1965) as novice master at the Cistercian Abbey of Gethsemani, his insight into the liturgical pattern of the Christian year and beyond is presented in fresh detail. Merton’s own commitment to this central dimension of Christian life is clear, and nowhere more so than in his work introducing students to the patterns that would mark their lives as monks. Though dating from the period just before the liturgical reforms of Vatican II, Merton's commentaries remain pertinent. The thoroughly annotated text is preceded by an extensive introduction situating this material in the context of Merton's lifelong writing on liturgy. Moreover, as his former student Br. Paul Quenon notes in his foreword, this context is one deeply rooted in Merton’s understanding of Scripture. ‘These notes . . . take us into one man's lifetime of reflection and seasoned experience of the Church Year.’

Book Synopsis The Feasts of Israel and the Great Wedding by : Glen Carpenter
Download or read book The Feasts of Israel and the Great Wedding written by Glen Carpenter and published by Glen Carpenter. This book was released on 2012-12-15 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is excerpted and expanded from: CONNECTIONS: A Guide to Types and Symbols in the Bible This book focuses on the Feasts of Israel under the Law of Moses,including the two great deliverance feasts (Purim and Hanukah), and concludes with the Lord's Supper and the Marriage Supper (of the Lamb). It is little known within the Christian world, but widely known in Judaism, that all of the Feasts of Israel are related to the concept of a wedding feast -especially the Feast of Tabernacles. This book is all about the profound symbolism of each of these feasts, and how they closely intertwine with each other. The culmination is a study of the progression from the Lord's Supper (Last Supper) and the Marriage Feast of the Lamb in Revelation. It includes some astounding truths about our relationship with the Lord, and tackles the question: are we married to the Lord, or only betrothed? There are seemingly contradictory passages in the epistles concerning this, but the puzzle is pieced together in a way that will prod the reader to find a closer relationship to the Lord. Even the prophesied supernatural "hiding" of the saints in the dark times to come are discussed Koinonia is also shown to be the great key to understanding all of these subjects, and the meaning of this word is explored in all its magnificence.

Book Synopsis Jewish Feasts and the Gospel of John by : Gale A. Yee
Download or read book Jewish Feasts and the Gospel of John written by Gale A. Yee and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2007-10-01 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "John situates certain events in Jesus' ministry specifically during four Jewish festival seasons: Sabbath, Passover, Tabernacles, and Dedication. According to John, Jesus replaces these feasts in his special relationship to the Father, making them obsolete. The Book of Signs [John 1:19-12:50], is important for this study because it is here that John explores the significance of Jesus in light of the symbolism of the Jewish feasts. . . . We will therefore focus our discussion predominately on the Book of Signs, pointing out in the course of our study where the festival motifs are resumed in the Book of Glory [John 13:1-20:31]." --from the Introduction
