The Prophet Elijah: March 2009
http://theprophetelijah.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html
Sunday, March 15, 2009. Elijah is invoked (not in the "magical" sense) weekly at the Havdalah ritual that marks the end of Shabbat, and in other Jewish customs, among them the Passover seder. Based on a prophecy in Malachi, many Jews await his return as precursor to the coming of the Messiah. In Eastern Europe, he is known as "Elijah the Thunderer" and is blamed in folklore for poor weather. Mark Lester A. Iragana. 1st and 2nd Kings. Mark Lester A. Iragana. Strategic situation in Israel.

The Prophet Elijah: Strategic situation in Israel
http://theprophetelijah.blogspot.com/2009/03/strategic-situation-in-israel.html
Sunday, March 15, 2009. Strategic situation in Israel. Map of Israel in the 9th Century BCE. Dark Green is the Kingdom of Israel. Light Green is the Kingdom of Judah. By the 9th century BCE, the united kingdom of David and Solomon had broken up into northern (Israel) and southern (Judah) kingdoms. With the Temple in Jerusalem, Judah had both the seat of government and the focus of religion within its borders. It was in this situation that Omri became king of Israel. Mark Lester A. Iragana.

Book of Maccabees: Maccabees
http://ak47mod.blogspot.com/2009/02/jewish-family-who-fought-against-rule.html
Monday, February 16, 2009. The biblical books of 1 Maccabees, 2 Maccabees and 4 Maccabees deal with the Maccabean revolt. The revolt itself involved many individual battles, in which the Maccabean forces gained infamy among the Syrian army for their use of guerrilla tactics. After the victory, the Maccabees entered Jerusalem in triumph and religiously cleansed the Temple, reestablishing traditional Jewish worship there. Mark Lester A. Iragana.

The Prophet Elijah: Challenge to Baal
http://theprophetelijah.blogspot.com/2009/03/challenge-to-baal.html
Sunday, March 15, 2009. When Ahab confronts Elijah, he refers to him as the "troubler of Israel." Elijah responds by throwing the charge back at Ahab, saying that it is Ahab who has troubled Israel by allowing the worship of false gods. Elijah then berates both the people of Israel and Ahab for their acquiescence in Baal worship. “How long will you go limping with two different opinions? If the Lord is God, follow him; but if Baal then follow him” (1 Kings 18:21). And the people were silent.

The Prophet Elijah: 1st and 2nd Kings
http://theprophetelijah.blogspot.com/2009/03/1st-and-2nd-kings.html
Sunday, March 15, 2009. 1st and 2nd Kings. Elijah's challenge, characteristic of his behaviour in other episodes of his story as told in the Bible, is bold and direct. Baal was the local nature deity responsible for rain, thunder, lightning, and dew. Elijah not only challenges Baal on behalf of the God of Israel, he challenges Jezebel, her priests, Ahab, and the people of Israel. Mark Lester A. Iragana. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).
