Levite

by worshiping the golden calf. Though God delivered the Israelites from slavery in Egypt through several trials and tribulations, this was still not enough for them to follow his commandments. As a result, God condones Moses’ decision to let the Levites kill 3,000 Israelites. It seems unsettling for god to on the one hand permit genocide and on the other hand help people enjoy the benefits of earth. However, this act serves as a form of ethnic cleansing. It is more beneficial to the society as…

I selected the article, from the SPARQ the article, form SPARQ website entitled” Take Time to Be a Good Samaritan,” which summarize research article ( Darley, J.M., & Batson, C. D. (1973). In the article Daley and Batson seeking the solution to the problem why people in need get some help from people and others turn a blind eye. The research study was done by the social psychologist, Darley and Batson who selected a group of 67 seminary students who were training to be priest as the…

The formation of a valid contact becomes useful in ways that allow individuals to have written verification of what was said, what has been agreed upon, and for how long if a time frame is presented. In the process of forming a contract all individuals involved have to realize that a valid contract includes agreements, consideration, contractual capacity, and legality. Beginning with agreement, “an agreement to form a contract includes an offer and an acceptance,” according to Roger Miller. An…

In 1947, India gained its independence from Britain, along with this newly found independence, came a division of the land. This division, known colloquially as the Partition, split British India into two states: Pakistan and a version of India that we know today. Partition remembered not because of the independence of two states, but instead it’s remembered for the violence and death it caused and the impact on political and social relations in that area, an impact that had lasting effects.…

Christianity is one of the three major monotheistic religions. A monotheistic religion is one where there is only one god. The god of the Christian religion is Jesus. Jesus is the creator of the world as shown in John 1:1-4. Another view of Jesus is as the judge and punisher of human. kind. The judgement will occur during the apocalypse, also known as the second coming. The apocalypse is the day that Jesus will return to earth to judge the evil people and reward those who have been faithful.…

Deuteronomy 31, 32 and 34 give the account of the succession of Moses by Joshua. When Moses was leading the Israelites out of Egypt, he had several disagreements with God, and as such he could not enter the Promise Land. Among the disagreements included the time he broke the tablets of the Torah and God made him curve them again himself. Also, he was aging and his time of death was near. He, therefore, needed a successor who would lead the children of Israel into the Promised Land. He gathered…

Eli and His Sons Hopni and Phinehas belong to the priestly division of the Levites and were priests of the tabernacle in Shiloh. Eli became a priest in Israel and a judge for forty years. However, Eli lacked zeal for the Lord because his heart was more inclined towards his sons, Hopni and Phinehas, than to God. I presumed Eli’s sons turned wicked because their father failed to teach and discipline in the ways of God that they did not know Him. (1 Samuel 1:12) Hence, when his sons succeeded him…

Compare and contrast the spiritual condition at the time of the captivity to that of the returning exiles in Jerusalem under Ezra and Nehemiah, and then apply what you have learned to evaluate the spiritual condition of the American church. Use the prophets in your answer. The differences between Ezra and Nehemiah are substantially different of the course of how Ezra change Jerusalem to Nehemiah. Ezra spiritual condition had not foundation, moral or ethical conduct to different religions…

The church shared everything they had with one another, even selling property to have the church evenly distribute the funds. A godly model to imitate was Joseph a levite, whom sold a field and put the money at the feet of the apostles. This example of Christian fellowship, caused Joseph to be glorified with honor. Ananis and Sapphria saw Joseph being glorified, and out of envy, decided to cheaply imitate him. Peter…

only what we say but also what we do, for it’s not always just about you. If you act like your words do not inflict others, then are we trying to signify that we are the only human with a heart? For example, in “The Good Samaritan”, the priest and levite that passed by the beaten traveller were seeming to only care about themselves. They were disregarding the feelings and discomfort of others. They did not stop, even when they saw that the traveller was distraught and had been robbed. They were…
