righteous woman named Hannah had a baby after many years of prayer and hope, she named him Sam-u'el. ("sam" meant simply "name”; "El" meant “God.") So the name in Hebrew meant, "name is God." When he was weaned, she took him to the temple in Shiloh and dedicated him to God for whom he was named and asked the old priest, Eli, to raise him. The Bible has a long poem called "Hannah's Song" sung as she gave her little boy to God's holy man, Eli. Her song has some similarity to the "Magnificat"…

a very long time over the interpretation surrounding God and his promise to Abraham, who was a Jew. You have to be on the important people list when you are prominently mentioned in the oppositions bible. Abraham along with Jesus is mentioned in all three major religious publications, the Bible, Torah and Koran. “Recall Abraham was put to the test by his Lord, through certain commands.

this semester, I have learned numerous things about God and the Bible as a whole. Though lectures and class discussions, I have learned things that have benefitted me far outside the realms of the class. This semester, Dr. Jones has really challenged us to see how what we are learning in class applies to real life, not merely within the walls of the classroom, and that is something I have taken away. I have come to understand that the Bible is indeed living and breathing, and it makes a huge…

by fear from centuries of Islamic violence. Smith expresses that a Christian aspect toward the prophet Muhammad as a phony and the Qur’an to be deceitful. The Christian aspect toward the Qur’an is that they believe the only connection between the Bible and the Qur’an is Jesus Christ himself (“Christianity vs. Islam”). Christians also believe the Qur’an did not come from the one true God because of the misconceptions or misunderstandings found inside. Christians further disagree with the Qur’an…

although some may be used occasionally by other writers of the New Testament.”7 Driver attempts to make an argument from the use of some words that he claims developed in the Hebrew language at a date after the life of Isaiah the prophet.

The Jewish believe in God but not in Jesus Christ. There are three different type of Judaism which are orthodox, conservative and reform. Torah is the first five books of Moses and is the most important document that the Jewish use. It is written in Hebrew ant they believe that Torah was given to Moses for the Jews on how to live (Salmon 2012). Jewish view death as God’s plan and part of life.

the Book of Mormon was published. The Bible told the story of ancient Hebrew people and their travels to the New World and the conflicts that followed (Butler, Wacker, Balmer, 2011). The story was creative, but did not have historical facts to support his argument, but somehow people were intrigued with the new ideology and followed Smith teaching (Butler, Wacker, Balmer, 2011).
