Gospel of Matthew

This essay will discuss Malachi 3:1-7 and the Indictment against Israel. I will further discuss how it’s the last book before four hundred years of silence and how no prophetic word was spoken to the prophets again until John the Baptist. I will further discuss how the prophets before him looked forward to God’s emergence. I will elaborate on how the transitional nature of Malachi makes the book interesting to any individual concerned with the relationship between Judaism and Christianity as…

returned to the chief priests and begged, “…I have sinned in that I have betrayed the innocent blood. And they said, What is that to us? see thou to that. And he cast down the pieces of silver in the temple, and departed, and went and hanged himself” (Matthew…

with you? In the gospel, Jesus was the one who ordered the disciples to go on without him. He dismissed them and when they are far off the land, they were being tossed by the waves because the wind was against the boat they were in. If you look closer, even though it was Jesus’ plan, they are all alone and everything was against them. In our life, do not be afraid if you cannot see God with you in times of darkest because what if, it’s still God’s plan after all? In the gospel, Jesus’ brilliant…

Purpose of an Education promoting shalom Mercy Ann Ranjan Introduction: Looking at the root Hebrew meaning for shalom we see in the Old Testament, the root word is found in many Semitic languages. The Akkadian salamu comes closest to the root meaning “whole or complete” (The Anchor Bible Dictionary, 1992, pp 206). According to the New Testament, it is referred that the Hebrews tended to use the term primarily for interpersonal or social relations where it comes very close to meaning “Justice.”…

Because we are made in His image, we are supposed to be merciful to others, just like God is (Luke 6:36). God tells us that we will be blessed if we show mercy because then, we will have mercy shown to us (Matthew 5:7). Some people ask, “Why doesn’t God show mercy to the people who suffer?” Well, the Bible invites us into suffering because when we join the sufferings of Christians, we become a good soldier of Christ Jesus (2 Timothy 2:3). Not just a soldier…

The dual store model of memory is classified into three categories which are sensory registry, short-term memory, and long-term memory. Each of these categories has a different processing role within the brain of human. Therefore, this process is known as human information processing (HIP) that allows individuals understanding the amount of information that each category can retrieve, store within, and put out (Dr. Gadomski, M., 2017). Ormrod (2016) states being exposed to new information does…

their food to others in need will be blessed by the lord Jesus Christ. Robin Hood might of not known what he was doing was a christian doing but he was giving to others. Matthew 19:21 says “ If you would be perfect , go sell what you possess and give to the poor, and will have treasure in Heaven; and come, follow me.” Matthew 19:21 is saying that if you really wanna follow Christ you will drop everything to become closer with the lord. Robin Hood also taught me how to look at people from…

Luke Would Have Edited Mark’s Gospel There are a number of differences in the gospel accounts by Luke and Mark. The Gospel according to Luke is considered more detailed and accurate. In the event that Luke has edited the Gospel according to Mark, he would have revised its chronological order of events and separation of certain fused events. Luke would also have edited the duality writing style in Mark’s discourse (Muddiman & Barton 257). Luke would edit Mark’s Gospel because He would have done…

Point #2 – The destruction of Jerusalem and the temple in A.D. 70 is a fulfilment of Christ’s prophecy of perilous times. In moving along, we turn our attention to verse 14 of the text. Verse 14 is a pivotal moment in Christ’s teaching to his disciples. In verses 4-13 Jesus has been telling his disciples to look for signs; however, those signs can be looked at as being vague and not specific. Furthermore, those signs would occur during a time period that would lead to the destruction. In verse…
