So what was God’s response to Moses and Aaron’s actions taken? 3. Num 20:12 Then the LORD spoke to Moses and Aaron, “Because you did not believe Me, to hallow (to sanctify) Me in the eyes of the children of Israel, therefore you shall not bring this assembly into the land which I have given them.”Moses struck the rock instead of speaking to the rock, as being a case of his unbelief. Moses apparently had a problem with speaking to an inanimate (lifeless or non living) object and expecting…

Joshua, Judges, and Ruth all share the fact of being written by unknown people. Although there are theories and traditions that indicate names, there is ultimately no proof regarding these claims. The time of authorship is vague as well. Joshua was likely first written during the 2nd millennium BC, Judges at least after the mid-11th century BC, and Ruth after 1010 BC (ESV Study Bible). Joshua describes how the titular character leads the Israelites in a campaign to take Canaan. The beginning…

Introduction Before the introduction of Elijah in the book of 1st Kings, we are given a synoptic account of the condition of the Israel’s king, an account which stands in blinding contrast to the instructions of the Lord for a king over Israel: “Ahab son of Omri did evil in the sight of the Lord more than all who were before him [When he has taken the throne of his kingdom, he shall have a copy of this law written for him in the presence of the levitical priests…so that he may learn to fear the…

deliverance of Israel, and the collapse of Society. After Joshua led his people into the promised land he had reminded them to be faithful to God, so that others might know him through them. However, after Joshua’s death many Israelites didn’t keep Moses law or Joshua’s command, and they decided to follow the Canaanite religion. At the beginning of Judges, Joshua had passed away and the people are wondering who is going to lead them in the battle against the Canaanites. The lord appointed…

The book of Micah falls into the genre of the Old Testament minor prophets, men divinely chosen by God to reveal His messages to the people. The first three chapters of the book of Micah are attributed to the prophet Micah himself, however the rest of the book is debated to be compiled of additions and recordings by other prophets to enlarge Micah’s message . The discrepancy comes from the dating of the manuscripts, which chapters four to the end of the book are dated to after deliverance from…

This is not to imply that he is unfair to his people as this story demonstrates God’s righteousness as he delivers the Israelites out of Egypt. Additionally, even after those facing unjust treatment from the Pharaoh and his officials refuted against Moses help and doubted God due to increase of injustice, God remained with the Israelites. “You have brought us into bad odor with Pharaoh and his officials, and have put a sword in their hand to kill us” (Exodus…

How would we, as Christians, live our lives without the Bible? The Bible plays a key aspect in our roles as Christians. Specific Bible stories and topics such as Mt. Sinai, Moses, God’s covenants to us, and the martyrdom of Stephen give us a clear understanding that even though God is not physically present in the world today, He still uses ordinary people to do extraordinary things under His name. The Bible is crucial for us as Christians, for it is a constant reminder that we truly do serve…

Moses was the main prophet front the book of Exodus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy. He is a descendant of Adam through the Levite tribe. He then became the adopted son of the Pharaoh after his daughter found him floating in the Nile River; this occurred because of the Egyptian Pharaoh made an order for all of the Hebrew Midwives to kill all Hebrew males born. Being raised an Egyptian prince he grew up in luxury, however after he killed a guard he was forced to run to the desert .He saves the seven…

community with him, the world and one another. God constituted laws so that we may have structure and order and he expects us to obey them. However with the fall of humanity in Genesis, disobedience and sin have become part of our world. In Exodus, Moses intercedes for the Israel nation, while in The New Testament, Jesus is our intercessor restoring relationship with God. Even though humanity still sins, we have Jesus and the Holy Spirit working in us and helping us daily to be more Christlike,…

My experiences in the past were a part of what formed me and what helped me continue to build my knowledge, skills, beliefs, and values.

I helped my church community by gardening the church’s garden, organizing food banks at school, and raising money for charity organizations. These experiences have made me realize how important it is to…
