An Ancient Kingdom Prepared for the Blessed

  When the Jewish audience heard the words “you blessed of my Father” and “kingdom prepared from the foundation of the world” they knew Jesus was referring to the first story in Genesis – and they understood links to the Babylonian story Enuma Elish.

Jesus and the Wisdom of the Creator of the Heavens and the Earth

  Is there a common foundation upon which the tens of thousands of Christian biblical heritages stand? That was the question Dr. Ike Tennison, Rabbi Jeffrey Leynor, and I discussed many times. We found the answer to the above question was surprised that it’s linked to the Wisdom of the Creator of the Heavens and the Earth.

Seeing Genesis Through the Eyes of Ancient Scribes

  In Genesis 1 the Hebrew word ELOHIYM is translated “God.” In Genesis 2 it is translated “gods.” In Genesis 1 the Hebrew word ADAM is “two people.” In Genesis 2 it is “one man.” People who only read English translations are unaware of differences like these and being aware of them is essential to understand what the Bible is teaching.

The Goals and Rewards of Exploring the Bible and Beliefs

  Exploring the Bible and Biblical Heritages emerged from over a decade of using the guideline above. I created it in the late 1980s as a way to deal with conflicts in beliefs in my Bible study meetings. People with conflicting beliefs focused on defending their beliefs and attacking people that disagreed with them. But after I created the guideline and people started using it -- things changed . When a belief conflict arose, the guideline acted like a GPS that guided to the next actions to take.

Ezra Temple Scribe and Representative of the Persian King

  The parallel between the missions of Udjahorresnet and Ezra are striking. Udjahorresnet was an Egyptian priest sent by a Persian king to Egypt to create the infrastructure required for the implementation of the “ Laws of Egypt ” and the “ Law of the King of Persia .” Ezra was sent by a Persian king to Jerusalem to create the infrastructure required for the implementation of the “ Law of Yahweh ” and the “ Law of the King of Persia ” Continue reading at - http://mailchi.mp/217beae24a0b/ezra-temple-scribe-and-representative-of-the-persian-king

The First Canon of Biblical Heritages

  Without a Bible, biblical heritages would not exist. Therefore, a top priority for explorers of biblical heritages is to acquire accurate information about “ the Bible .” But biblical heritages have two major types of religious institutions today -- Jewish and Christian . The “ divine authority claims of those institutions ” – proof that they are the authorized representatives of God -- are directly linked to words in their Bibles.
