...What remains today of Old Babylon are the ruins of an ancient city under the water level of the Euphrates River, although some later city ruins still exist. However, archeology tells us much about the 4,000-year history of this storied city that passed through many hands and empires during its long existence. Babylon began as a small, administrative center during the reign of Sargon the Great. Babylon’s history truly begins with Hammurabi, an Amorite prince, who began his reign over the city in 1792 B.C. Through war and diplomacy, Hammurabi subdued all of Mesopotamia under Babylonian rule by 1755 B.C. His empire stretched from Syria to the Persian Gulf. Hammurabi called his empire Babylonia. Besides Hammurabi’s famous law code, he focused...

...Old Testament Class The purpose of this report is to provide the reader with key concepts, insight, and facts about the book of Isaiah itself. By doing so, this report strives to show how the book of Isaiah could be applied to the daily life of faithful followers then, (in the past), and how it can continue to be applied to the daily lives of faithful followers today. The first order of business is to cover a little background about the book of Isaiah and some noteworthy facts about it. According to the introduction of subject book found on page 683 of the English Standard Version Bible Copyright 2001, Isaiah was a prophet who prophesied about 740 – 700 B.C. He came into the picture during a period in which Israel had fallen on hard times and when they were subject to the iron-handed rule of the Assyrian Empire. Isaiah relayed God’s words to his people whom he often described as being deaf and blind such as in Chapter 6 verse 10. The Israelites earned themselves this descriptive label because they failed to heed to Isaiah’s warnings of bad things yet to come as judgment from God for the sin of the people of Judah. However, Isaiah also proclaimed a message of hope and foretold of how the unwavering faithfulness of God would use Cyrus the Persian to defeat the Assyrians and also release the captured Israelites back to their homeland that they had been exiled from. Isaiah is also one of the first prophets to speak of the Messiah with various descriptions...

...Peggy Cobb Intro to the Old Testament Professor John Holk The Exodus Event and its Significance The following quote sums up the significance of the Exodus Event: “The exodus was the most important salvation event of the Old Testament. God rescued his people from Egyptian bondage by miraculous and extraordinary means. The crossing of the Sea is the climactic moment of their rescue [see Exodus 14]. They had no human means to escape Egypt, but God himself provided the way out. We should not be surprised that the significance of such an important event reverberates through the rest of the Old Testament and into the New Testament (Tremper Longman III, How to Read Exodus [Downers Grove, Ill: IVP Academic, 2009], 145).” Two great religions come from the Bible, which is from the word biblos which means book in Greek. The Old Testament has Judaism and in the New Testament we have Christianity. The Bible, while telling a story from beginning to end, explains the beliefs of the founders and early followers of the religions. Historical evidence such as written documents or archaeological remains, offer very few traces of the story in the Old Testament and none whatsoever of the New Testament events. Jewish Bibles are thought to have been written beginning in the 10th century BC, and by that time the Hebrews have settled in Canaan or Palestine. However, it is also believed that some events could go back to the 18th century BC; and many parts it is presumed the scribes are...

...in the world, the one being the source of all good, the other the source of all evil.”1 Kuhn further describes the universe as the battle ground for these equally opposing forces and identifies them as light and darkness. In this definition we see God being light and Satan being darkness as equal forces in eternal hostile battle. This form of dualism is in contradiction as to what Scripture teaches. Scripture starts with God creating not only the earth but the heavens as well. (Gen.1:1) In the book of Genesis we see God as the creator of all. In the ending of Scripture God claims victory over Satan and Satan is cast into the lake fire to suffer eternal torment.(Rev. 20:10). In Isaiah 14:12-14, the prophet addresses Satan as the one fallen from heaven and cast down to earth for his prideful sins against God. In Ezekiel 28: 12-17 God addresses Satan as the King of Tyre, through the prophet Ezekiel. He addresses him as having been an anointed guardian cherub. God says “for so I ordained you.” (vs 14). “You were the model of perfection,”(vs _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________1H.B. Kuhn, “Dualism.” Evangelical Dictionary of Theology: 2nd Edition, ed.

...L R. K. J THEO 201_B10_201230 Short Essay #4 Short Essay on Angelology and Satanology Dualism is a theory in interpretation that explains a given situation or domain in terms of two opposing factors or principles. It is a doctrine that the world (reality) consists of two basic, opposed, and irreducible principles that account for all that exists. It has played an important role in the history of thought and of religion. Religious dualism is the belief that there are two opposite powers in the universe: good and evil. Some say that this is manifested in the biblical revelation of God versus Satan. Ethical or ethico-religious dualism asserts that there are two mutually hostile forces or beings in the world, the one being the source of all good, the other the source of all evil. [1] The universe becomes the battlegrounds for these opposing beings, identified respectively with light and darkness. The dualistic idea is not biblical at all. Scripture does not teach that there are two equal opposing forces that have eternally existed and it does not teach that the universe consists of opposites, nor does it affirm that Satan and God are equal and opposing forces. God alone has existed eternally. God, according to Scripture, is infinitely greater than Satan and will eventually cast Satan into hell. This could not be done if they were equal and opposing forces. The belief is not biblical. Christian theology generally accepts a modified moral dualism, recognizing God as supremely...

This paper will explore the roughly 400 years that make up this era and examine the role that Herod the Great played in shaping the religious and political groups Jesus encountered. THE INTERTESTAMENTAL PERIOD The last sections of the Old Testament illustrate Darius the Persian as the ruler over Persia. At the time Judea was part of the Persian Empire. In 597 B.C. Judea was conquered by Nebuchadnezzar who was the King of Babylon this ended Jewish independence. Nebuchadnezzar had decided to take certain knowledgeable Jews into captivity. It was there in Babylon the Prophet Ezekiel began working on this particular group to teach them and instruct them on how to provide the necessary leadership it would take to replace those who had fallen in Jerusalem. Since there was no temple for the Jews many of them came together to learn and practice the Law. Teachers of the Law became the new spiritual leadership for the...

...Do The Reggay A Brief History of Reggae Music In 1968 the Jamaican music rocksteady gave way as a new rhythm started to emerge from Jamaica – Reggae. The defining characteristic of this new sound was the ‘shuffle’- choppy sounding chords that give reggae music a distinctive sound (Chang & Chen, 1998). According to the Oxford Dictionary the term Reggae is used to refer to all popular music coming from Jamaica since the sixties. However, it also refers to the certain style that was extremely popular in Jamaica from around 1969 to 1983. Jamaican music can be divided into four styles that are distinguishable from one another, ska, rocksteady, reggae and dancehall (Chang & Chen, 1998). Ska became popular in 1960 and lasted to1966, rocksteady from 1966 to 1968 and reggae from 1969 to 1983. Reggae being divided in two time periods, "early reggae," from 1969 to 1974, and "roots reggae," from about 1975 to 1983. From 1983 until now the music has been called dancehall (Chang & Chen, 1998). For the purpose of this paper I am mainly focusing on early and root reggae. During the period of early reggae, the Rastafarian inspiration of roots reggae had not yet taken full effect. While it had similarities to rocksteady and ska, it had a faster and more distinct beat, making it nearly impossible not to move to the music. The lyrics focused on similar topics as rocksteady during the early stages of reggae, songs about love and life in Jamaica were prevalent. However the influence...

...is a word with many different meanings. This essay will explore what accountability is, where it comes from, and what it means to “be accountable”. Websters dictionary defines it as such: the quality or state of being accountable; especially; an obligation or willingness to accept responsibility or to account for ones actions. "Accountability" stems from late Latin accomptare (to account), a prefixed form of computare (to calculate), which in turn derived from putare (to reckon). While the word itself does not appear in English until its use in 13th century Norman England, the concept of account-giving has ancient roots in record keeping activities related to governance and money-lending systems that first developed in Ancient Israel, Babylon, Egypt, Greece, and later, Rome What is accountability and the definition: (DOD) The obligation imposed by law or lawful order or regulation on an officer or other person for keeping accurate record of property, documents, or funds. The person having this obligation may or may not have actual possession of the property, documents, or funds. Accountability is concerned primarily with records, while responsibility is concerned primarily with custody, care, and safekeeping. Why is accountability important to the Army? Accountability is a very important part of an enlisted and a non-commissioned officers job. The enlisted soldier is responsible for all items issued to issued to him weather it be a weapon, clothes, a vehicle, or some TA-50...

...In chapter 9 of Daniel, Daniel is giving his third vision. Daniel was the only prophet that received a wide view of the future events that would take place for the both the people of Israel and the Gentiles. In order for one to understand the prophecies that take place in the book of Daniel, one must fully understand that prophecies that are given in chapter 9. Daniel was given the prophetic perspective on the fate of the Gentiles and the Jews. At the beginning of chapter 9, the prophecy of Jeremiah is brought into the picture. Jeremiah prophesied that Jerusalem would suffer 70 years of desolation. “For thus says the Lord, ‘When seventy years have been completed for Babylon, I will visit you and fulfill My good word to you, to bring you back to this place. “ For I know the plans that I have for you,’ declares the Lord, ‘plans for welfare and not for calamity to give you a future and a hope. Then you will call upon Me and come and pray to Me, and I will listen to you. 1You will seek Me and find Me when you search for Me with all your heart. I will be found by you,’ declares the Lord, ‘and I will restore your fortunes and will gather you from all the nations and from all the places where I have driven you,’ declares the Lord, ‘and I will bring you back to the place from where I sent you into exile.’” (Jer. 29:10-14) Daniel gained access to the writing of the prophet Jeremiah.
