Aramaic Light on the Gospel of John
Author: Rocco A. Errico
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780963129284
Category : Bible
Languages : en
Pages : 284
Book Description
Aramaic Light on the Gospel of John, like its predecessors Aramaic Light on the Gospel of Matthew and Aramaic Light on the Gospels of Mark and Luke, carries you back into the Near Eastern, Semitic times of Jesus of Nazareth. It is unique in that it provides insight into the Aramaic language and Semitic customs of almost two thousand years ago. If you instinctively shy away from "commentaries"-This one will surprise you. No dull theological seminary textbook, the approach is simple, informative, and scholarly, without using specialized theological terminology. This inimitable commentary acts a Near Eastern guide, revealing to the Western mind a more intimate picture of the socio-religious and psychological environment of the period. It offers an understanding of the character and behavior of Near Eastern Semites. This is the field of Dr. Errico's and Dr. Lamsa's research and expertise. They bring clarification to many misunderstood passages and sayings of Jesus. Learn the Semitic meanings behind such terms as "the Word," "Light," "Life," "Christ." Understand what Jesus meant when he said "No man comes to the Father except through me" and many other sayings that appear to be sectarian and exclusive. This volume is more than a revision of Dr. Lamsa's commentaries, Gospel Light, 1936, and More Light on the Gospel, 1968. Dr. Errico has edited, expanded and annotated these previous works in the new format that Dr. Lamsa desired. In addition, this book contains unpublished material that the two of them outlined just before Dr. Lamsa died in 1975. Dr. Errico completed these comments and has added information derived from his continual research in Near Eastern Semitic studies.

Aramaic Light on Exodus Through Deuteronomy
Author: Rocco A. Errico
Publisher: Noohra Foundation
ISBN: 9780976008040
Category : Bible
Languages : en
Pages : 250
Book Description
If you instinctively shy away from commentaries "Aramaic Light on Exodus through Deuteronomy" will surprise you! No dull theological seminary text, it carries you back almost 4000 years, providing an unusual perspective on the Torah books of Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy. This inimitable commentary acts as a Near Eastern guide, revealing to the Western mind a more intimate picture of the socio-religious and psychological environment of the period. Its approach is simple, informative, and scholarly, without using specialized theological terminology. The comments are written in narrative form, opening a doorway into the ancient Near Eastern culture of the times. Dr. Errico and Dr. Lamsa unlock and clarify many misunderstood passages of the Torah Moses symbolic dreams and visions, his leadership, the war between the Hebrews and Egyptians, the crossing of the Red Sea, the Divine tabernacle in the wilderness, how water came from a rock, fire from heaven, many Levitical laws, the miracles and adventures in the desert, the laws of Deuteronomy, and more. They also address the most important questions of all: Does God participate in the murder of men, women and children so that the Divine Will might be fulfilled? Did God tell Moses to commit any atrocities that are found in these biblical books? This volume is not just a revision of Dr. Lamsa s Old Testament Light commentary, 1964. Dr. Errico has edited, expanded, and annotated the previous comments. In addition, this book contains unpublished material that the two of them had only drafted prior to Dr. Lamsa s death in 1975. Dr. Errico completed these comments, adding information derived from his continual research in Aramaic word meanings and Near Eastern Semitic Studies.
