NAMES OF GOD
—Biblical Data: Like other Hebrew proper names, the name of God is more than a mere distinguishing title. It represents the Hebrew conception of the divine nature or character and of the relation of God to His people. It represents the Deity as He is known to His worshipers, and stands for all those attributes which He bears in relation to them and which are revealed to them through His activity on their behalf. A new manifestation of His interest or care may give rise to a new name. So, also, an old name may acquire new content and significance through new and varied experience of these sacred relations. It can readily be understood, therefore, how the divine name is often spoken of as equivalent to the divine presence or power or glory. ) is used absolutely, doubtless as an equivalent for "the name of " (Lev. xxiv. 11, 16; comp.

Internet Resources for the Study of Judaism and Christianity
This page lists a number of sites on the Internet that are useful for the study of Judaism and Christianity. The list is necessarily partial, provisional, and even parochial. A casual glance will show how Penn-centered it is. It is amazing that this much relevant information already exists on the Internet. Some of this material is brilliant, and much of it is useful.

Dead Sea -- Materials Relating to World of the Scrolls
The Origin of the Scrolls and the Qumran Site In "The Dead Sea Scrolls: A New Perspective," Professor Norman Golb of the Oriental Institute at the University of Chicago presents evidence to support his view that the Dead Sea Scrolls do not derive from a sect that copied or wrote the manuscripts that were found in the nearby caves. According to Professor Golb, there is no persuasive evidence to support the commonly held view that a sect inhabited the Qumran plateau.

Hebrew Name for God - The Messiah (Mashiach)
The honor and majesty with which David tells us (Psalm 104) that GodHimself is clothed He will bestow on the Messiah. As it is said,'His glory is great in Thy salvation, honour and majesty hast Thou laid upon Him.' (Numbers Rabbah 14) Introduction Messiah in the Midrash There is a long tradition of midrash (commentary) concerning the Mashiach among the Jewish sages. From the time of creation constant reference is made in Holy Writ to Messiah and the Messianic hope of Israel. Messiah and New CreationWhen God first created the "generations" of the heavens and the earth, the word toldot (תולדות) is used (Gen. 2:4). The name "Perez" (פרץ) means "breach" (from paratz, meaning "to break through"). The Restored Vav is a picture of the Mashiach who would would descend from the "generations" of the line of Perez. To Anoint Mashach.Qal 3ms; to anoint or smear with oil; to consecrate. The person (or thing) anointed by God was called mashiach - an "anointed one" or "chosen one": Mashiach His Messiah
Q: Which version of the Bible do you use/recommend?
A: Frequently we are asked about Bible versions--which is best, which is most accurate, which do we recommend. Unfortunately, often those who ask have already made up their mind and use the Bible version issue as a kind of litmus test for doctrinal purity. That does not speak well for where this issue has taken the Church. The Bible version issue is far more complicated than most people understand. Some have read a booklet or pamphlet from a Bible teacher who has condemned all versions except his favorite. Sometimes the logic of these booklets is faulty. Take this little quiz. Contrary to what I have read in some booklets, Bible translators for some of the versions were not homosexuals who wanted to remove the blood from the Bible. While the original writings of Paul, Moses, Peter, etc. do not exist today (they are called the "autographs" of Scripture), there are plenty of copies of these autographs and copies of copies. Which Bible version does Back to the Bible use? But as Dr.
