Jeremiah 41-44 Death of Gedaliah (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Gedaliah was left as governor of Judah by the Babylonians. He was murdered by Ishmael at the instigation of the Ammonites. This caused the rest of Judah to panic and flee to Egypt against the wishes of God. In Egypt Jeremiah called them to cease making offerings to the Queen of Heaven. This advice was angrily rejected.
Vanity Under the Sun (opens the original)
Read excerpt
We read Ecclesiastes during Succot because both the book and the holiday are about the same subject. Ecclesiastes reminds us that the accomplishments we make in this life - under the sun - are transitory and eventually we must leave them behind and go to the grave. Succot reminds us that this world is not our ultimate home and that we, along with the saints who have gone before, are looking forward to a city made by God.
Daniel 11, The Soap Opera (opens the original)
Read excerpt
After his death, Alexander's empire was divided among his four top generals. The Selucids and the Ptolemys were above and below Israel respectively. Chapter 11, describing their competition over a span of three centuries, reads like an ancient 'Game of Thrones.'
Why Do We Still Observe Yom Kippur (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Most of Christianity does not observe Yom Kippur. They often cite Hebrews 9 which clearly states that the sacrifice of Christ was done once and never need be repeated. While that is true, the Song of Moses in Dt 32 provides a perspective on how believers can fall away from God and into idolatry. Observing God's special days, including Yom Kippur can prevent that falling away.
Daniel 10, Persistence in Prayer (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Daniel had been fasting and praying for three weeks without apparent result. In this vision, the curtain is pulled back a bit and he learns that the manifestation of answers to prayer may involve conflict among spiritual beings.
