The Prophecy Of The Temple

Ezekiel was a young priest when he was growing up, he was always around the temple in Jerusalem. The exiles in Babylon received hope from Ezekiel. Quickly after the first exiles arrived in Babylon, he began preaching. When Ezekiel received the messages from God, they mostly came from visions. Once he kept receiving these messages, he then realized that God would still take care of his people. The people of Babylon will receive a new life and return back home to their land from God’s spirit. God was with the people in Babylon the same amount of time he was in the Temple. In God’s exile, he would bring everyone closer to him. It was everybody’s responsibility to share group individuality.

Obvious seems the reason for pseudonymity in Second Temple Apocalypticism—but is it? Najman, writing on Mosaic Law in Second Temple literature, argues pseudepigraphy transfers authority from original texts to interpretive works, creating a process whereby “a ‘new’ law . . . is [instead] characterized as the Law of Moses”; but, is the same true for nonexpanded scripture? In the Letter of Aristeas, a pseudonymous author portrayed himself as Aristeas (Ps-Aristeas), a Ptolemy II court attendant. Wright argues the letter consists of “myth origins for the Septuagint.” Pseudonymity thus established the Septuagint as “an independent scriptural authority for Alexandrian Jews.” Consequently, by writing as a Ptolemaic court Gentile, the Jewish author

The purpose of this paper is to research and analyze the preterist and futurist views of interpreting the Book of Revelation and determine which view provides the most accurate Biblical interpretation. As Richard L. Mayhue states, the "word 'preterist' comes from the Latin term praeteritus which basically means 'past' in regard to time." A preterist interpretation of the Book of Revelation, therefore, asserts that incidents described therein have already come to pass. A futurist interpretation, on the other hand, suggests the opposite namely, that Revelation is a prophecy of things to come.

Although the exact age of the Jewish faith is debatable, one thing is certain, it is a faith with an extensive, and at times tumultuous, history. Throughout the history of Judaism, Jewish people have faced ongoing persecution and discrimination. Despite these conflicts, the faith is alive, strong, and growing. Like many religions faced with adversity, Judaism has had to accommodate the ever-changing world to maintain their faith. One significant moment of change, the falling of the Second Temple, had the opportunity to destroy Judaism for good, but the Jewish people came together and reformulated their religion in order to save their faith.

There was nothing to do. I saw her and that was that. I met her and then she was gone. She walked out of my life like a gust of wind that passes by, unnoticed. I loved her, at least I thought I loved her. I couldn’t stop thinking about her curly dark hair, the way she talked, and the way she moved when she walked swinging her arms so freely. Who will tell her how my heart feels? She told me things that I didn’t want to hear. She said that she didn’t belong to no one. A drug dealer had been her boyfriend since she was eighteen. He had given her everything, everything I couldn’t give her. “Then, he was shot, murdered, dead. The cons had taken over the plaza where he distributed drugs.” she said. “The remains of his body were found inside a black construction plastic-bag. When powerful drug cartels take over, everyone else dies. Not just a normal death, a cruel death. They make sure no one else dares to mess with their territory. That’s how it is. That’s fricking Mexico.” She blew a cloud of smoke and looked at me with those black-miserable eyes.

The Church interpretation of Ezekiel’s prophecy is quite simple. In Ezekiel 37:15-17 from the King James Bible, it reads:

n the book Thanks! Robert Emmons give an awesome idea in chapter 6 about Redemptive self, Emmons names very intelligent scholars who have scientific studies of a person biographical  and cultural concept, one scholar that has really struck out to me in the reading  is McAdams who discovered redemption sequence, he stated, “there is a transformation from an unpleasant circumstance to a positive outcome”(178). Thus , McAdams statement reveals how something  terrible, tragedy or constructive imperfection will open up good opportunities to be redeem all past disappointment sequence. Surely Emmons freely expresses how redemption will illuminate amazing grace gratitude, gratitude strengthen  redemptive life towards a positive outcome  because people who have and nasty attitude about life will tend to have a unstable ability to sustain life, constantly stress out about every situation that occurs.  Thus, Emmons assert that  gratitude to is an 2nd nature, we do it occasionally every day to our family, friends and community alike, he found interesting facts that not being grateful lead toward the

Black student-athletes are taught to value sports over academics at a young age because it is seen as the “only way out”. Black student-athletes are heralded for their athletic prowess from middle school up, so they begin to focus less on their education and more on their sport. Unfortunately, so do the teachers. Black student-athletes are more often than not just given passes, as schools value what their athletic abilities could do for them over the academic success of the athlete. Even normal black students can be seen the same way just because of the perception that they might be an athlete. The sad truth is that the athletes that don’t make it to the professional level are left without the education needed to be successful.

From the debate over Eschatology Ladd then moves forward in the next few Chapters to the promises that God holds within his Kingdom. He achieves this by showing how Jesus proclaimed the coming Kingdom in the context of Old Testament prophecy. The concept of God’s Kingdom is already in place and is shown through Old Testament promise. In order to fully understand this Ladd analyses the apocalyptic writings and language through the lens of prophetic and apocalyptic hope in the coming Kingdom or Messiah.

Within the Abrahamic religions eschatology brings forth much debate, this is to include Ezekiel’s chapter 38-39 in reference to Gog and Magog. The prophecies from Isaiah to Revelation are interwoven therefore making it important to identify, and understand the accomplices, interludes, geography, and various elucidations which assist in accurately analyzing and understanding this prophecy. It is important to acknowledge that “the major interpretive difficulties in these two chapters are the identity of characters and places, as well as the time when these events occur.” There are vast elucidations regarding the invasion of Gog and Magog, therefore, requiring a concentration on Dispensationalism and various scholars

Zechariah, experience many visions as we read this great book it puts us in the mind set of an Revelation or Daniel. It’s hard not to get caught up in the apocalyptic style of writing. The writer sucks you in to this almost dream world before you have to pull back and reexamine were you were and the real message that he’s conveying. To keep it simple his message was about encouraging the people to finish what they had started. Rebuilding the temple, throwing in the golden nuggets about the Messiah would come.

The book of Isaiah provides a message to the nation of Israel and is one of the most powerful books of prophecy in the Bible. The prophet spoke of events to come that many have attempted to discern. Scholars, Rabbis and Christian Clergy differ in their interpretations of these passages in Isaiah 52 and 53.

To speak of the Hebrew Scripture is to speak of story, a story stretching from the very beginning of time to only a few centuries before the beginning of the Common Era. It is to speak of richness of content, of purpose and of reality and to engross oneself in an overarching narrative that, depending on your personal convictions, continues to the present day. Within this richness is found a wide variety of different events and experience, told through a series of genre ranging from foundational myth to apocalypse, law giving to poetry, genealogy to wisdom and many more. Within this diversity however, three broad sections can be discerned that speak to a shared purpose and content, these are the sections of Law, Prophecy and Writings. It
