Relationship of the Messages of Amos and Hosea to the Mosaic Covenant

I have heard them crying out because of their slave drivers, and I am concerned about their suffering. So I have come down to rescue them from the hand of the Egyptians and to bring them up out of that land into a good and spacious land, a land flowing with milk and honey—the home of the Canaanites, Hittites, Amorites, Perizzites, Hivites and Jebusites. And now the cry of the Israelites has reached me, and I have seen the way the Egyptians are oppressing them. So now, go. I am sending you to Pharaoh to bring my people the Israelites out of Egypt.” But Moses said to God, “Who am I that I should go to Pharaoh and bring the Israelites out of Egypt?” And God said, “I will be with you. And this will be the sign to you that it is I who have sent you: When you have brought the people out of Egypt, you will worship God on this mountain.” Moses said to God, “Suppose I go to the Israelites and say to them, ‘The God of your fathers has sent me to you,’ and they ask me, ‘What is his name?’ Then what shall I tell them?” God said to Moses, “I am who I am. This is what you are to say to the Israelites: ‘I am has sent me to you.’” God also said to Moses, “Say to the Israelites, ‘The Lord, the God of your fathers—the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob—has sent me to you.’ “This is my name forever, the name you shall call me from generation to generation. “Go, assemble the elders of Israel and say to

Comparing and contrasting different written works is a key aspect to discovering truths about the Christian Bible. When we compare and contrast canonical books, we can learn many things about the theology and context in which these books were written. Today, we will be comparing two books from the New Testament: Hebrews and Revelation. While Hebrews is often referred to as an epistle, it is actually more similar to a sermon. Revelation is a book that describes a supposed “vision” from the author John. John wrote this vision down on the instruction of a heavenly figure. While we compare these books, we will specifically focus on their relation to Judaism and their positions on Judaism. We will examine three major difference and/or similarities: Their views on the relevance of Jewish History, the superiority of Christ, and, the Second coming of the Messiah.

CHAPTER SIX: Describe the Real Time and Real Space surrounding Noah. Noah’s real time cannot be determined, but during Noah’s time humanity civilized, developed, deteriorated and decayed. Noah’s time was compared to the second coming of Jesus, because in the days of Noah, humanity was corrupt and the only option was to wash the world clean. The time between Adam and Noah is unsure but it is not a few years because of the few chapters between their stories.

1. The central vision of Revelation is found in chapters 4-5. (a) What is the

Throughout the Old Testament I can see how humanity is drawn forward from the covenant of creation to the events concerning Jesus Christ. God connects with humankind through covenants which outline the plan of God. The Abrahamic covenant is the first covenant to show God’s unconditional love toward humankind. The Mosaic covenant is a conditional covenant that outlines the laws that we must live our lives by. The Messianic

This paper will analyze the "Divine Purpose" as it appears in the various "highways of prophecy" in the New Testament, and show how those "highways" may be followed to a deeper and fuller appreciation of God's message.

Imagine that you are a Negro who is accused of a crime that you did not commit. You have one of the best lawyers to defend you, but the whole outside community is against you. Since you did not commit the crime you are accused of, you believe that you will not be accused wrongfully, but you soon find out that the all white jury is unjust and biased against you. Tom Robinson, a character in To Kill a Mockingbird, witnesses this situation when he is wrongfully accused of raping a white woman and ultimately dies due to loss of hope. To Kill A Mockingbird by Harper Lee reveals that society does not effectively protect the innocent through the ignorance and racial prejudice present during the court trial and in daily lives.

Mosaic covenant is sealed when Moses begins reading the book aloud to them so all could hear Book of the Covenant. Then they seal the covenant with an oral agreement. “Then he took the book of the covenant and read it in the hearing of the people; and they said, all that the LORD has spoken we will do, and we will be obedient!" Exodus 24:7). Than once they agree to faithful obey the covenant they seal it with a blood oath. “So, Moses took the blood and sprinkled it on the people, and said, "Behold the blood of the covenant, which the LORD has made with you in accordance with all these words." Exodus 24:6)

Max Weber's study was influential in the emergence of the spirit of modern capitalism and is applicable to leaders past and present. It is true Weber argues that Puritan ethics and ideas influenced the development of capitalism. The United States is seen as having a democratic capitalist political-economic system due to its economic incentives through free markets, fiscal responsibility, and its liberal moral-cultural system that encourages pluralism. In regard to the analysis of power in society, Weber again introduces a pluralistic notion (introduction to sociology, 2010).

Exodus 19:5: Now if you obey me fully and keep my covenant, then out of all nations you will be my treasured possession.

The book of Daniel and the Revelation are counterparts of each other. They should be studied together as to get the whole picture of God’s redemptive plan, world’s history, the future of the world, God’s victory over evil at the end of the world, and a glimpse into the new heaven and the new earth. Even if these two books are different, many parts of the books talk about the same event of world’s history in which we are about to find out. In this essay, I will show how the book of Daniel is related to Revelation and then how John uses the imagery of Daniel. First of all, let us look at the introduction to the books of Daniel and Revelation. I will

We can believe that the Abrahamic covenant would be fulfilled when, God called Abraham to leave his country, relatives, and family to go to the land that he was going to be given. God said, “I will make you into a great nation. I will bless you and make you famous, and you will be a blessing to others.” The land that the Lord took Abraham too, was the land that would be given to him and his descendants. After Abraham was gone, his descendants would be in possession of the land.

There are three main covenants in the Old Testament. The first covenant is the Abrahamic Covenant. God promised Abraham that he would be the father of a great nation (Genesis 12:2). God also promised him the land of Canaan (Genesis 12:7; 17:8), He

This chart is intended to be used as an aid to studying the Abrahamic Covenant that would be found in Genesis. It is a simple tabular formatted chart. The material is done in a logical chapter:verse order starting with Genesis 12 and completing in Genesis 50. It was attempted to show all the verses that either outright mentioned a covenant or at least implied a covenant.

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.
