The Hebrew Bible: Its Purpose, Its Significance, and Its Impact According to Collins, the Hebrew Bible is defined as, “a collection of twenty-four books in three divisions: the Law (Torah), the Prophets (Nebi’im), and the Writings (Ketubim), sometimes referred to by the acronym Tanak” (Collins, 1). While this is the basic definition for the Hebrew Bible, there is so much more to it that makes it such an amazing piece of literature, and vital part of our history.

have the Hebrews epistle. The author of Hebrews is not really known by anyone. The epistle was written approximately around AD 80-90. There is not much really known about the authorship at all. The audience that this epistle is being written to is Hellenistic Christians and possibly Jewish Christians. The audience is struggling with their faith and they are having a hard time believing in their faith, even though they have already survived the time of persecution of their groups.

suffering? How does the author of Hebrews expect a community, which has been ridiculed and rejected to the point they are tempted to abandon Christ, to endure suffering? The author claims that faith is the means by which the community will endure. The author spends the last section of the book of Hebrews (10:32-13:25) exhorting the readers to remain steadfast and faithful amidst their suffering (Thompson 200). A powerful rhetoric occurs in chapter 11 of Hebrews, as the author uses examples of faith

As a classic example of diaspora, the Hebrew Diaspora is studied and questioned by many. Both the causes of and the consequences of the Hebrew Diaspora are two aspects of the event that, for most, have yet to be sufficiently answered. Having occurred many centuries ago in the past, the causes and consequences of the diaspora may seem to be of no importance, yet at second glance, one realizes that addressing these topics may be the key to accurately determining the modern effects of diaspora in general

The Hebrew Exodus has had people debating its plausibility for quite some time. From scholars to regular students, people have been trying to prove or disprove the Hebrew Exodus, either with facts or belief. Despite the strong evidence against the Exodus, many will choose to believe in it anyway. My personal belief of the Hebrew Exodus, is that it didn’t happen. It’s hard to believe the Exodus happened when the historical findings are non-existent. The Exodus events haven’t made it into recorded

While considering the Hebrew Bible against the New Testament, there is a great divide in the type of leaders that are presented in each. This both has to do with identity and differences in some beliefs between Jews and Christians, with the divide marked by the life of Jesus. In the narratives of the Hebrew Bible, the leaders tend to be warriors. In Genesis, this is Abraham, then known as Abram, defeated enemies, however he follows the archetype of the righteous warrior in that he does not collect

Hebrew Bible Scriptures is proven to be significant and is interpreted in as many ways as there are numbers. However, according to Gene M. Tucker, Hebrew Scriptures has endorsed a suspicion of nature.

Moreover in addition, Lynn White initiated a modern debate in terms of a 1967 article he wrote “The Historical Roots of our

School is in session! However, it is not the students who are in need of instruction, but the teachers! That is the message found in the infamous and controversial “letter to the Hebrews”, one of the newest documents from the growing religion known as Christianity. According to the writer, the Christians that he is writing to (those who converted from Judaism) should be teachers, but are instead the ones needing instruction. This Christian religion, known as the “church of Christ”, is experiencing
