Book Description
Sifra is the earliest extant rabbinic commentary on the book of Leviticus. On a basic level, Sifra presents and validates rabbinic law, but this was done by creating a link between a proposition, halakhic or not, and a scriptural passage. Scholars in the last few decades-including Neusner and Stemberger-have debated Sifra's relationship to Mishnah-Tosefta. Howard Apothaker demonstrates that the set of rules in Dibbura deSinai on topics shared with Mishnah-Tosefta can be understood as an independent body of law. They share a common ancestor but represent different expressions of a similar worldview and with variant purposes. The framers of Sifra sought as their main objective to validate the essentiality, or non-superfluity, of every word of Scripture. Apothaker's analysis of the exegetical and rhetorical characteristics of Sifra in Sifra, Dibbura deSinai: Rhetorical Formulae, Literary Structures, and Legal Traditions builds on his translation of and commentary on the section of Dibbura deSinai which covers Leviticus 25-27. Analysis of Sifra's highly formalized rhetoric yields insight concerning the general purpose(s) for which the framers created the work.

Book Description
Sounding the Shofar consists of exhortations for the end-times and warnings to learn and obey Gods Word, to live holy lives, and place our faith and trust in God as we occupy until Jesus comes. In ancient days, the Shofar, a rams horn, was used to warn people of enemy attacks or impending danger. This ebook focuses on God, His Word, and obeying It. It is about our relationship with Him. It emphasizes the importance of pleasing God, doing our best for Him, and receiving His blessings. It tells us how God reveals Himself to us in the Bible, and that we need to build our faith through the study of His Word. God has called pastors and leaders to be watchmen to warn against sin and wickedness by sounding the Shofar, much as He commanded the prophet Ezekiel. America is in decline and under great judgment because she has rejected God and has forsaken His ways. Todays lukewarm and apostate church is largely responsible for this, for not being the salt of the earth, and the light of the world anymore.

Book Description
The Knowing the Bible series is a resource designed to help Bible readers better understand and apply God’s Word. These 12-week studies lead participants through books of the Bible and are made up of four basic components: (1) reflection questions that help readers engage the text at a deeper level; (2) “Gospel Glimpses” that highlight the gospel of grace throughout the book; (3) “Whole-Bible Connections” that show how any given passage connects to the Bible’s overarching story of redemption, culminating in Christ; and (4) “Theological Soundings” that identify how historic orthodox doctrines are taught or reinforced throughout Scripture. With contributions from an array of influential pastors and church leaders, these gospel-centered studies will help Christians see and cherish the message of God’s grace on every page of the Bible. Over the course of 12 weeks, this study connects Paul's letters to the Thessalonians to the lives of Christians today. These epistles encourage readers by reminding them of the salvation God will bring to all those whom he has called—strengthening them to pursue lives of holiness and love as they anticipate Jesus's return.
