bull Parents today are under a lot of pressure to be more permissive and less authoritative in raising their children Research has now shown the results of this progressive thinking

bull In a study of 124 youngsters conducted over a twelve-year period researchers studied parenting styles and the effect of each style on the development of young people Researchers divided the parenting styles they saw into categories ranging from parents who didnt seem to care to those who were extremely demanding and restrictive while offering their children little emotional support They found that parents who consistently set down clear standards of conduct and clearly defined limits while offering close emotional support produce teenagers who fared better in academic tests are emotionally more stable and are much less likely to be involved with alcohol or drugs than any other group The so-called hellip


bull democratic parenting style they noted produced far more heavy drug users than parents who set limits They also noted that restrictive parents who offer little emotional support for their children tend to produce teens who while not heavily involved with drugs are less happy with life and fall below average on academic tests Researchers concluded that the limit-setting rule-enforcing parents who offer strong emotional support to their children are the most successful parents And this is exactly the style of parenting Scripture teaches usrdquo

from those around them Based upon this notion they advise that children should not be spanked because that spanking only teaches violence This modern teaching contradicts the biblical teaching that we are born in original sin inherited from Adam Belief in original sin is accepted in some form by most Christians Jews and practically everyone who has ever raised children

Megiddobull Large cities that you did not buildbull By Jonathan Lipnick May 04 2015 Biblical Hebrew amp Greek bull Mezuzah scroll sepharad real frontJPGbull The text of the Shema written on parchment which is affixed to the doorpost of a Jewish homebull The book of Deuteronomy Mosesrsquo farewell speech to the children of Israel contains some of the most quoted passages in

the entire Bible Perhaps the most foundational text for Judaism is the Shema (ldquoHear O Israelrdquo) the opening verses of the sixth chapter of the book

bull Hear O Israel The Lord is our God the Lord alone You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your might Keep these words that I am commanding you today in your heart Recite them to your children and talk about them when you are at home and when you are away when you lie down and when you rise Bind them as a sign on your hand fix them as an emblem on your forehead and write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates (Deut 64-9)

bull This is the most concise Jewish declaration of faith and a mandatory prayer recited twice every day (ldquowhen you lie down and when you riserdquo) by observant Jews As seen in the photo above it is also handwritten by a scribe on a piece of parchment which is affixed to the doorposts of onersquos home (ldquomezuzahrdquo) as well as inserted into phylacteries which are bound to the arm and forehead (ldquotefillinrdquo)

bull But following this very famous instruction Moses utters these much less famous words

bull When the Lord your God has brought you into the land that he swore to your ancestors to Abraham to Isaac and to Jacob to give youmdasha land with fine large cities that you did not build houses filled with all sorts of goods that you did not fill hewn cisterns that you did not hew vineyards and olive groves that you did not plantmdashand when you have eaten your fill take care that you do not forget the Lord who brought you out of the land of Egypt out of the house of slavery (Deut 610-12)

bull This is a difficult message to hear and not surprisingly these words are much less familiar to modern Bible readers The Shema prayer skips over this passage and only resumes several chapters later in Deuteronomy 11 The lesson here is somewhat discomforting Although God promised the Land of Israel to the People of Israel it was inhabited by another people prior to the Israelites This is a concept which the modern field of biblical archaeology has categorically confirmed The original inhabitants of the Land the Canaanites built well fortified cities throughout the Land during the Bronze Age Many of these cities became the chief Israelite cities in the Iron Age

bull Among theses mighty Canaanite cities perhaps the most prized was Megiddo In the early 15th century BCE the Egyptian Pharaoh Thutmoses III counseled his troops ldquoto conquer Megiddo is to conquer a thousand citiesrdquo

bull Because of its strength the Israelites were not able to conquer Megiddo initially ldquoThe kings came they fought then fought the kings of Canaan at Taanach by the waters of Megiddo they got no spoils of silverrdquo (Judges 519) Eventually it was conquered by the Israelites and became an important administrative center during period of United Monarchy King Solomon enslaved many of his own people in order to fortify a small group of key cities

bull This is the account of the forced labor that King Solomon conscripted to build the house of the Lord and his own house the Millo and the wall of Jerusalem Hazor Megiddo Gezer (1 Kings 915)

bull Megiddo would play an important role in fall of the Davidic dynasty and the rise of Babylonians in the 6th century BCE

bull In his days Pharaoh Neco king of Egypt went up to the king of Assyria to the river Euphrates King Josiah went to meet him but when Pharaoh Neco met him at Megiddo he killed him His servants carried him dead in a chariot from Megiddo brought him to Jerusalem and buried him in his own tomb(2 Kings 2329-30)

bull According to the book of Revelation the future eschatological ldquobattle on the great day of God the Almightyrdquo will take place at Armageddon This is Har Megiddo which means the ldquoMountain of Megiddordquo in Hebrew Given all the warfare that has taken place here over the ages it is not surprising that the New Testament sees this site as the location of the final battle on the Day of Judgment

bull ON THE MARK OF THE BEAST PART 2by Dr William P Weltybull ON THE MARK OF THE BEAST PART 2 ndash (PRINT)bull by Dr William P Welty

bull Binary Keybull Ed Note What follows is Part Two of a three-part series on the Mark of the Beast The author Dr William Welty is the

Executive Director of the ISV foundation and also serves as Research Analyst in Advanced Communication Technologies and Adjunct Professor of Middle Eastern Studies on the faculty of Koinonia Institute

bull All Biblical citations are taken from the International Standard Version (ISV) translation of the Bible

bull The Clue is in the Causativebull The Apostle Johnrsquos description of the mark of the beast was recorded in the New Testament as a Greek koine narrative

The Greek language does not contain the rich nuance of volitional persuasion that is connoted by the Hebrew language causative verb form While most non-Hebrew language Bible readers may not be familiar with the Hebrew causative almost every Bible reader is familiar with Psalm 23 Note how the Psalmistrsquos use of the Hebrew causative verb form brings out the subtle influence of God as he acts as shepherd to David persuading him to take the actions described in verse two of the psalm

bull ldquoThe LORD is the one who is shepherding me I lack nothing He causes me to lie down in pastures of green grass he guides me beside quiet watersrdquo

bull mdash Psalm 231ndash2 ISV

bull Do notice if you would how David confesses that it is God who is causing him to lie down but therersquos no suggestion that this action is being taken against his will

bull A set of Gussos tefillin in the Ashkanazi traditionbull Above A set of Gussos tefillin in the Ashkanazi tradition

bull For David to lie down in the pasture is an act of active cooperation on Davidrsquos part but hersquos being motivated to make the choice and act on that choice by Godrsquos outward and inward influence

bull The same lack of brute force contained within the context of outward and inward influence is connoted by the Apostle John in Revelation 1316rsquos use of the Greek dative declension of the personal pronoun ldquothemrdquo to describe the second beast influencing all sorts of people ldquoto take for themselves the markrdquo (Greek ἵνα δῶσιν αὐτοῖς χάραγμα) the actual nuance of the dative declension here The description by the Apostle John of the mark is that it will be placed either on the right hand or on the forehead of the person receiving it This is a not-so-subtle clue to anyone familiar with the Torah of the antecedent theology from the earliest days of national Israelrsquos existence that the mark of the beast will be a rival or substitute for devotion to the true God of Israel

bull The obvious word picture being described compares the mark of the beast to the Tefillim (or phylacteries) worn by righteous Jews Just as the phylacteries were placed on the right hand or on the forehead of the faithful of ancient Israel so also will these modern followers of the false prophet the Beast and their false god who animates them adopt to themselves an imitation emblem that mocks the faithful of ancient Israel

bull Former Muslim terrorist and now Christian apologist Walid Shoebat has suggested in recent years that the Greek letters chi ksi and sigma (Greek χ ξ and ς used to indicate the three separate Greek numbers 600 60 and 6) may bear a visual resemblance to the Aramaic rendering of the Shahadatan the standard Arabic language confessional statement of the unity of Allah and of the significance of Islamrsquos prophet Muhammad Dr Albrecht is aware of this view but rejects it outright In our view this rejection is without scholarly merit

bull Arabic language illustration of the Shahadatan confession of allegiance to Allahbull Above Arabic language illustration of the Shahadatan confession of allegiance to Allah

bull Arabic abbreviation and Greek lettersbull Above ndash Top Arabic abbreviation of the Shahadatan Bottom Greek miniscule letters for 600 60 and 6

bull Hints from Codex Sinaiticus (ca 350 AD)bull One of the bases upon which Dr Albrecht rejects Shoebatrsquos thesis is Shoebatrsquos observation that a horizontal bar written

across the top of the Greek letters representing the numbers 60 and 6 are added by Shoebat to bolster his claim that the philological appearance of the sequence of Greek letters bears a visual resemblance to the Shahadatan Aside from Dr Albrechtrsquos ignorance concerning the elements of the Greek alphabet (such as her confusing the name of the miniscule Greek letter sigma (ς) with the Latin language word stigma which means ldquomarkrdquo) Dr Albrecht is just plain wrong about the use of horizontal marks in Greek manuscripts Their presence in NT Greek manuscript philology is not only abundant and common a study of their usage and function is a component element of elementary Greek exegetical analysis and textual criticism We take the liberty of citing two examples from Codex Sinaiticus to illustrate this pattern of using horizontal marks in the Greek text to indicate abbreviations

bull 1 The Divine Namebull The earliest indications that Christians considered Jesus to be Yahweh Elohim incarnate is seen by examining how the first

known manuscripts of the Greek New Testament depict the name ldquoJesusrdquo and many predicate nominatives that refer to him It is common knowledge that Jews were as an almost inviolate rule averse to pronouncing the holy name of God Even today many orthodox Jewish publishing houses will refrain from spelling out the English noun ldquoGodrdquo in their English language manuscripts preferring instead to spell the word as ldquoG-drdquo so as to avoid violating the Third Commandment

bull The writers of the New Testament gospels were Jews When they wrote Greek words that refer to HaShem that is pronouns that refer to deity (such as the Greek word kyrios which means ldquoLordrdquo) they would follow this ancient tradition One of the clearest examples demonstrating that the early copyists of New Testament manuscripts were following in that Jewish tradition of avoiding spelling out references to deity can be found in the text of Codex Sinaiticus which is arguably considered the earliest extant copy of the New Testament It has been dated reliably to about the middle of the fourth century AD We reproduce below a sample portion of Matthew 2339ndash241 from Codex Sinaiticus along with a Greek transcription and English translation of that text from the Holy Bible International Standard Version

bull How blessed is the one who comes in the name of the Lordbull The line immediately preceding this portion of Matthew 2339ndash241 reads ldquohellipyou will not see me again until you sayhelliprdquo

immediately followed by the text above which translates as

bull hellipldquolsquoHow blessed is the one who comes in the name of the Lordrsquordquobull After Jesus had left the Temple and was walking awayhellip

bull The first three lines of the uncial manuscript (ie a manuscript written completely in capital letters) depicted in the image above are a quotation by Jesus from Psalm 11826 where the Masoretic Text phrase ldquoname of the Lordldquo spells the word LORD This is a specific reference to Yahweh Elohim

bull Do note if you will please how the Codex Sinaiticus copyist declined to spell out the name of God in the Greek text Instead he wrote out an abbreviation of the Greek word kyrios using only the Greek letters KY The letters come from the Greek genitive singular kyriou which translate as ldquoof the Lordrdquo Then he placed a short diacritical mark above the line starting at the right edge of the letter ldquoKrdquo and extending about half way across the top of the capital letter ldquoYrdquo The presence of this diacritical mark is somewhat analogous to modern English grammatical usage of an apostrophe within a contraction to indicate missing letters that are to be supplied by the reader for comprehension (For example the contraction ldquodonrsquotrdquo is intended to mean ldquodo notrdquo) Contractions were utilized when referring to deity out of a reluctance to violate the Third Commandment which prohibits vain use of the name of God But notice how in the very next line that same copyist applied the tradition of not spelling out the name of God to not spelling out the name of Jesus Instead he spelled ldquoJesusrdquo as ldquoISrdquo (ie printing the first and last letter of his name as a contraction) and then he added the same diacritical mark above those two letters that he did with the noun referring to God just a few lines above

bull This pattern is so prevalent throughout Codex Sinaiticus occurring dozens of times in the manuscript that a clear and obvious pattern linking the name of Jesus and predicate nominative pronouns referring to Jesus with the sacred name of Yahweh Elohim cannot be denied In sum the copyists of the early New Testament manuscripts afforded Jesus the same reverence and honor when writing out his name and references to him that the reverent Jews extended to the sacred name ldquoLORDrdquo
