Ezekiel 18
(Ezekiel 18) and (Romans 5). I believe Ezekiel is revealing some of the greatest news which is we are only responsible for our own sin. This may seem odd but it’s the greatest news that we are not held accountable for our parents or our children’s sin. The central focus of Ezekiel 18 seems to be around Ezekiel’s statement in Ezekiel 18:20 NLT “The person who sins is the one who will die. This shows that we have a personal connection with our sins, which will cost us our life. Ezekiel goes on to say in Ezekiel 18:20 “…The child will not be punished for the parent’s sins, and the parent will not be punished for the child’s sins.” Ezekiel reveals that God does not hold the sins of our parents or grandparents against us but once again each person

    Beginning Biblical Studies Chapter Summary

    The Bible is an accumulation of historical books that are comprised into the now known Bible, which has a variety of versions. However, the Christian Bible is composed of two Testaments. The Old Testament and the New Testament, whereas the Jewish Torah is only composed of one, the Old Testament. In the text, "Beginning Biblical Studies," revised by Marielle Frigge; she presents a section on sin in chapter 5. Sin is addressed as rebellious, distorted, and an act of forsaking’s God’s covenant. Sin is an act of withdrawal from God’s will, as a result of the Bible which states the Lord has a plan for us. In Jeremiah 29:11-14; God’s plan is expressed for the people to call upon him, not for evil, but only good. However, in 1 Samuel 12:20-25 and 15:22-23; the Lords message is expelled out to the people to turn away from their sinful ways. For sin is rebellion, arrogance, and idolatry, which will all be rejected by God.…

    Bible 105

    Samuel, a judge for Israel, saved them from the Philistines, and led them back to God. When Samuel grew old, the people did not want a new judge. The tribes of Israel had many problems working together. Each tribes had their own leader with different rules to follow. The people of Israel demanded a King to be like the other nations. Samuel attempted to answer the concerns of the people by appointing his sons to be judges over Israel, but the Elders was not happy with Samuel’s decision. His sons were not keeping God’s commandments and had none of Samuel characteristics. They were not a good candidate to be their leaders.…

    bible 105 #4

    The Old Testament ends with the prophets. These teachers provided insight on many issues facing Jews who were desperate to know God. Idolatry, social injustice and religious ritualism are three areas that are emphasized in their teachings and instilled in the minds and hearts of believers today. The prophets were great teachers who had much to say about God and the way man lived, social issues they faced, religious rituals they took part in, and their teachings are just as important today as they were in the past.…

    What Does Ezekiel 37 Mean

    Commentary - Ezekiel 37:4 After skeptically agreeing that YHWH can resuscitate and resurrect the bones, Ezekiel receives an imperative to prophesy to the bones (הִנָּבֵ֖א עַל־הָעֲצָמֹ֣ות), the exiles of Israel. However, there are others who are more skeptical on the identity of the bones, either not elaborating on their identity, or attributing them to slain Israelites in Egypt. Identity of the bones aside, the emphasis here is the word of YHWH that Ezekiel has been commanded to prophesy, a word containing a general thesis (v. 5b), a fourfold explication, and a concluding statement (v. 6). Commentary - Ezekiel 37:5-6…

    Genesis 22

    Throughout the Old Testament, God poses many challenges for people both in the sense of entire nations to individuals as well. In each instance there was a purpose for the challenges. Sometimes God was looking to see how people would act and follow laws and other times he wanted to test them. In Genesis 22 God posed a test for Abraham. He commanded him to travel to Moriah and offer his son Isaac to him as a burnt offering. Abraham obeys God and takes Isaac to the place God had told him. He brings with him two of his servants and on the way to the mountain Isaac asks Abraham why there is not sheep for the offering. It would seem that Isaac was catching on to what was happening and he still did not hesitate to follow his father carrying the very wood he was to be burned with. When Abraham was about to slay his son an angel of the Lord stopped him and told him that since he did not withhold his son he was the favored one.…

    Ezekiel saw the glory of God, he saw a human being with the face of four different features, and many other odd features of it body. The most rememberous was the blazing light- the light of life, (Ezekiel 1). Every person will one day see God, they will face reverence or judgment, based on how they lives their life on earth (NIV). God gave Ezekiel a description of Him, to give him hope and hope of knowing rather than not knowing who to believe in. God’s purpose was to build a foundation to the man of God, by showing him the uniqueness of…

    Euphrates From Revelation 17

    Revelation 17:1 And there came one of the seven angels which had the seven vials, and talked with me, saying unto me, Come hither; I will shew unto thee the judgment of the great whore that sitteth upon many waters: Sitteth upon many waters. Said of Babylon, Jer 51:13; the wealth of Babylon being caused both by the Euphrates and by a vast system of canals. The symbol is interpreted by some commentators as signifying Babylon, by others: pagan Rome, Papal Rome, Jerusalem. Dante alludes to this passage in his address to the shade of Pope Nicholas III, in the Bolgia of the Simonists: "The Evangelist you pastors had in mind, When she who sitteth upon many waters To fornicate with kings by him was seen.…

    Bible Parable

    According to The Catholic Study Bible, the parables told in the Gospel of Mark by Jesus are meant to remind us that our faith in Jesus should be cherished because it is a gift. Just as Jesus is a mystery, the parables are a “mysterious revelation of the Kingdom of God” (Mark’s Gospel). By having faith in Jesus, his followers can understand his word and realize that God comes into our lives in unexpected ways. Mark believes that God’s divine plan guides all human life “While honoring human freedom, Mark wants to affirm that God 's providence guides all of human life, even in the darkest moments such as the rejection of Jesus” (Mark’s Gospel). The message in Mark’s Gospel is one of hope, and he reveals that God’s kingdom will be like a mustard plant and thrive.…

    The Visions of Ezekiel

    God choses whomever He wants to give His messages to His people. In the Old Testament, God chose very specific people to give His message to Israel. Ezekiel, was a great man of God and very faithful to Him. The messages he received from God were intense and different than other prophets of Israel. The Lord allowed Ezekiel to have visions of which he traveled through, and heard the voice of the Lord. Ezekiel was obedient to the visions and listened to God’s voice and what He instructed him to do, no matter what the consequence was or how strange, terrifying, weird the message may have been for Israel. These visions can even be applied today in the modern day church and show how much God loves His people despite repetitive sin.…

    Chapter 95 Of The Bible

    Introduction, The richness of the truth about the Bible when we read is always embedded in the literary forms and genres that the authors used in the Bible. Chapter 40 of the book of Isaiah somehow opens with a three-repeated call for messengers to receive the news of the God’s coming to a broken and despairing nation. Moreover, the chapter lays some foundation of hope in the nation that has been heard in Israel from the beginning of its life. Also the chapter in a greater sense challenges the power of the nations that seems to make the fulfillment of God’s promises impossible.…

    A Journey Through the Old Testament

    The first 39 books of the larger work called the Bible, is called the Old Testament. The Bible itself is arguably the best selling and most read book of all time, yet it’s well known to be quite challenging to read through and understand. The Old Testament portion of the Bible, notably the most difficult portion of the Bible for most to study and follow, yields 39 books from multiple authors, and spans over 4000 years of crucial world and church history. If that were not enough to take on, the Old Testament comes our way through multiple styles of authorship and formats, including but not limited to, books of history, law, proverbs, ethics, philosophy, treatises, dramas, songs, epics, biographies, and letters. There have been many books written and published to survey, explain, and/or bring to light the Old Testament, but none more helpful to me than the review subject of this paper, the work of Dr. Elmer L. Towns, entitled “A Journey Through the Old Testament”.…
