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.…

The Four Source Theory is the idea that the Torah, the Jewish Bible, originated from four separate sources. Each one was written and developed over a different period of time. Each part teaches its reader something that the other three cannot. The four sources were combined to be a single document containing all their different ideas. The earliest source is the Yahwist source (J). Written between 1000 and 950 B.C. in Jerusalem under King Solomon, the Yahwist source discusses stories and traditions that are relevant to God’s plan for his chosen people (Nourse). In this source, God is very prominent. The intimacy of God comes from the notion of Yahweh, which means “I am”. Unlike the J source, the Elohist source uses the term Elohim or El which…

Edmund Burke writes, “He well knows what snares are spread about his path, from personal animosity… and possibly from popular delusion. But he has put to hazard his ease, his security, his interest, his power, even… popularity… He is traduced and abused for his supposed motives. He will remember that obloquy is a necessary ingredient in the composition of all true glory: he will remember… that calumny and abuse are essential parts of triumph…” Burke’s quote specifically describes the role Atticus Finch plays in To Kill A Mockingbird. Atticus sets aside the community’s prejudice accusations and their effects on his family in order to save the life of an innocent black man, Tom Robinson. Atticus risks his personal and family security, power and popularity, is abused for his supposed motives, and knows that obloquy is required for true glory.…

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”.…
