When he saw his people praying to the calf instead of to God, he was absolutely furious!

King DavidBiBle Time2 Samuel 5:6–10

JerusalemHow proud all the people were that David was their new king.

One day King David marched toward Jerusalem. This city had been taken over by some enemies, but now David wanted it for himself and his family.

King David and his army fought and won against the enemies in Jerusalem. David moved into the city and built his home there. He called

it “The city of David”. He built up the walls around the houses. Jerusalem looked very grand and well protected!

King David became stronger and stronger because God was with him.

Talk TimeHow do you know that God is with you?

Prayer TimeDear Lord, thank you that you are walking by my side all the time. Amen.

King DavidBiBle Time2 Samuel 5:1–3

David becomes kingMany years later, after King Saul had died, David was at a place called Hebron.

“You are the one that has led us in war,” the people shouted.

“We have seen that the Lord is with you! We know that you are a shepherd who will become our king!” they said.

On that day David made a promise with them that he would be responsible and rule over them all.

Then David became king of Israel.

Talk TimeWho first anointed David as king? Look at Day 93.

Prayer TimeDear God, it’s so good that you have a very special plan for my life, just like you did for David. Amen.

Jesus in JerusalemBiBle TimeMatthew 21:1–16

A big paradeJesus said to his friends, “Let’s go to Jerusalem now because soon something very important is going to happen!” So

the twelve friends gathered up their belongings and walked with Jesus. On the way Jesus turned to two of his friends and asked them to go on ahead and borrow a donkey. They were to bring it back to where they would all be waiting.

Some time later, the two friends arrived back, and a cloak was

put on the donkey’s back. Jesus then got on the donkey and rode

on the pathway toward the city of Jerusalem. His friends followed, wondering what was going to happen.

“Very soon,” said Jesus, “there is going to be a big parade and celebration. Just stay with me.”

Talk TimeDo you ever wonder about things? What?

Prayer TimeDear Jesus, you knew what was going to happen to you all along. I think it would have been so exciting to be with you on that parade. Amen.

Jesus in JerusalemBiBle TimeLuke 18:31–34

Don’t understandAs Jesus sat with all of his friends he began to speak to them. “Very soon,” he said, “we will be going to Jerusalem.”

All the disciples listened to him carefully. “And in Jerusalem,” continued Jesus, “some people who hate me will come for me. They won’t be very nice to me and will do horrible things. I will die, but,” said Jesus, “on the third day I will come alive again.”

The disciples didn’t understand what Jesus was talking about at all.

Talk TimeHas there ever been a time when you haven’t understood something? Did you ask a parent or friend to explain?

Prayer TimeDear Lord Jesus, thank you for giving me parents, friends, and other people I can talk to when I have a problem. Amen.

Land to live on

When they finally capture the land Joshua decides how it

is to be divided up among the great families – the tribes

of Israel. They no longer need to live as nomads. They can

farm the land.

A reminder of the covenant

The years go by. When Joshua is very old he calls the

people together to remind them of the terms of the

covenant: God’s promise to give them the land of Canaan

and the promise they made to obey the Law. Joshua said:

Now then… honour the Lord and serve him sincerely and

faithfully. Get rid of the gods which your ancestors used

to worship in Mesopotamia and in Egypt, and serve only

the Lord. If you are not willing to serve him, decide today

whom you will serve, the gods your ancestors worshipped

in Mesopotamia or the gods of the Amorites, in whose

land you are now living. As for my family and me, we

will serve the Lord.

Egyptians make papyrus from reeds grown near the River Nile.

Papyrus

Even before the pyramids were built,

the ancient Egyptians had learned to

make papyrus “paper” from the inner

stalk (pith) of papyrus reeds that grew in

marshy areas. (The English word “paper”

comes from the name “papyrus”.)

The thick, damp stems were laid out

in rows on top of each other and beaten

until they melded into a flat writing

surface. When this sheet had dried in the

sun, it could be used for writing on.

Papyrus was expensive to make but it

could be re-used by washing or scraping.

Egyptians made brush-pens from

reeds. They made their ink from plants

and other natural pigments, such as

malachite and yellow ochre.

Clay tablets

The ancient Babylonians shaped clay into

thin, flat, rectangular bricks for writing.

Words were pressed into the soft clay

with a wedge-shaped stylus. The clay was

then baked in the sun to harden.

Archaeologists have discovered whole

“libraries” of these clay writing tablets.

Stone tablet

The first permanent writing surface was

stone. In the Bible, the first time that

writing is mentioned is when the Ten

Commandments were written on stone.

The first “pen” was a chisel!

Waxed boards

The Assyrians, Greeks, and Romans all

used writing boards made from pieces

of wood, or ivory covered with wax.

Sometimes two boards were hinged

together. Any pointed stick could be used as a

pen.

Hinged boards with wax-covered writing surfaces.

St Catherine’s Monastery in the Sinai Peninisula, where Constantine Tischendorf discovered the Codex Sinaiticus.

The nineteenth- century Bible scholar Constantine Tischendorf (1815–74).

Scrolls were cumbersome to carry. Also, it

could take time to find a particular Bible

passage on a long scroll. In the second century ad, Christian

leaders collected together the books of the

New Testament. Instead of using a scroll,

they hit on the idea of collecting together

several sheets of papyrus or parchment,

folding them in half, sewing along the fold,

and adding more folded sheets.

This forerunner of the modern “book”

was sometimes also given a hard cover.

This early type of book was called a “codex”

(plural codices). The book, more or less as we know it, had

arrived!

The First BooksThe Codex Sinaiticus, the earliest complete manuscript of the New Testament we have today. It was bound as a book, or “codex”.

A page from the Codex Sinaiticus.

The oldest New TestamentThe earliest surviving complete copy of

New Testament was written not long

after ad 300. In 1844 a German scholar called

Constantine Tischendorf was exploring

the remote and ancient monastery of

St Catherine, in the Sinai Desert, Egypt.

There he discovered some parchments

with early Greek writing. They turned

out to be part of the Old Testament,

dating to the fourth century ad.

Excited by his discovery, Tischendorf

returned to the monastery to see if

he could find any more manuscripts.

Eventually he found parchment sheets

that made up almost the whole Bible.

The manuscript Tischendorf found

is known as Codex Sinaiticus because it

was found at the foot of Mount Sinai. It

is preserved today in the British Library,

London.

Other important early manuscripts

of the Bible in Greek include the Codex

Alexandrinus, also in London’s British

Library, and the Codex Vaticanus, now in

the Vatican Library, Rome.

These early manuscripts are vital for

scholars, who can check that the text

that is used to translate modern Bibles

is identical to the text known by the

early Christians. By comparing different

manuscripts, they

can see where copyists’ mistakes,

or well-meaning “improvements’, may have altered

the original words.

Jericho and the conquestJoshua makes plans for the invasion of Canaan. The first city they reach is Jericho (Joshua 5:13 – 6:27). The people see that it is strongly defended and they lose heart. God tells Joshua to march in procession round the city for six days. Part of the procession is the ark of the covenant, carried by priests. It is a sign that God’s laws are central to the Israelite campaign.

The seventh day of marching is the final one. With trumpets sounding, and on a sign from Joshua, the people give a great shout. The city walls fall down. It is the first of many miracles that enable Joshua to lead the people to victory.

JOSHUAThe book of Joshua continues the story of the people of Israel after the death of Moses. Under his leadership they prepare to enter Canaan and then make it their home.

Obeying the LawGod makes this promise to Joshua:

Just be determined, be confident; and make sure that you obey the whole Law that my servant Moses gave you. Do not neglect any part of it and you will succeed wherever you go.Joshua 1:7

The meaning of the nameJoshua is a name based on one of the names of God in the Bible – Yahweh. Joshua itself means “Yahweh is salvation”. Several Bible people had this name, the Hebrew form of which can be written as “Yeshua”. One of those people named Yeshua is known to Christians today as Jesus.
