Book Description
Throughout Scripture God uses symbolism to teach His children about their walk with Him and their heritage as Christians. Within these pages you'll discover the colorful symbolism encapsulated within the Breastplate of Judgment worn by the High Priest in the Old Testament. Just as the High Priest of the Old Testament symbolizes Jesus Christ, the properties of the stones on the Breastplate symbolize the characteristics God is looking for in His royal priesthood, the members of His mighty army. If we emulate these characteristics we can become precious stones in God's eyes just as Malachi 3:17 depicts, "'And they shall be mine, ' said the Lord of Host, 'in that day when I make up my jewels.'" In this world of violence, wars, evil, and injustice God is looking for a people that will be His shining light. He's looking for a people who agree with Him that righteousness and salvation shall reign. Time is short. Are you willing to do your part to become one of God's precious jewels?

Identifying the Stones of Classical Hebrew
Author: Ephraim S. Ayil
Publisher: BRILL
ISBN: 900467800X
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 251
Book Description
Since the translation of the Septuagint in the 3rd century BCE, scholars have attempted to identify the stones that populate the biblical text. This study rejects the long-standing reliance on ancient translations for identifying biblical stones. Despite the evident contradictions and historical inconsistencies, scholars traditionally presumed these translations to be reliable. By departing from this approach, this volume presents a novel synthesis of comparative linguistics and archeogemological data. Through rigorous analysis of valid cognates, it establishes correlations between Hebrew stone names and their counterparts in ancient languages, corresponding to known mineral species. This methodological shift enables a more accurate identification of stones mentioned in biblical texts, thus recovering their true historical context. The research not only advances our understanding of biblical mineralogy but also provides a fresh perspective on the material culture of the Ancient Levant, offering valuable insights for scholars and laymen, linguists and archaeologists alike.

Gleanings in Exodus
Author: Arthur W. Pink
Publisher: Sovereign Grace Publishers,
ISBN: 1589603125
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 390
Book Description
Historically, the book of Exodus treats of the deliverance of Israel from Egypt; but viewed doctrinally, it deals with redemption. Just as the first book of the Bible teaches that God elects unto salvation, so the second instructs us how God saves, namely, by redemption. Redemption, then, is the dominant subject of Exodus. Following this, we are shown what we are redeemed for-worship, and this characterizes Leviticus, where we learn of the holy requirements of God and the gracious provisions He has made to meet these. In Numbers we have the walk and warfare of the wilderness, where we have a typical representation of our experiences as we pass through this scene of sin and trial-our repeated and excuseless failures, and God's long-sufferance and faithfulness.

The Tabernacle's Typical Teaching
Author: Algernon James Pollock
Publisher: Scripture Truth
ISBN: 0901860654
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 238
Book Description
Algernon James Pollock's classic volume is an exposition of "types" - people, places, objects, events, offices, activities and institutions - connected with the Tabernacle, the Priesthood, the Offerings and the Feasts (particularly as described in the first five books of the Old Testament) which foreshadow their corresponding New Testament "antitypes" - most particularly Christ Himself. The author wrote in a postscript to the first edition: "The reward of this modest volume will be if it whets the appetite of the reader, leading him to desire to know more of these wondrous subjects. The theme is delightful indeed as it leads the heart into contact with Christ, subduing it by a deepening sense of the meaning of the death of Christ, leading out at the same time the affections of the heart to Him to Whom the believer owes everything for time and eternity." Elsewhere he once wrote: "We appeal to our readers, especially young men and women, to give the Bible a fair trial. Read it, study it, and seek earnestly the truth." The publishers commend this book to you as an aid to such study, confident that as you read, your appreciation will grow of the wonder of the One who is indeed the Tabernacle's true Theme, and is Himself the Truth.
