The Exodus Route: Baal Zephon The name Zephon derives from Mount Zephon, or Jebel el-Aqra, which is 25 miles (40 km) north of Ugarit on the coastal border of present-day Syria and Turkey. The mountain Baal-Zephon is where Baal supposedly led the pantheon of Canaanite gods, and it came to signify the direction north for the Israelites (see Isa 14:13; Gen 13:14; Deut 3:27). Baal-Zephon was worshiped in Egypt at the cities of Memphis, Ras Qasrun, and Tahpanhes, likely due to Phoenician influence. Eissfeldt has shown that ... Duck Country [Island of Tiran] itself lies near a very thickly wooded promontory [peninsula].

Matthew was NOT originally written in Hebrew: JW's are false ... ... New Bible commentary, Matthew, Carson, D. A.

Solomon's Jerusalem Temple is not located on top of the Gihon ... ... But this cannot be the Gihon Spring because it is too far below the temple platform level for natural flow.

About 400 years later the Roman historian Tacitus gave another reference that the Temple at Jerusalem had within its precincts a natural spring of water that issued from its interior. (Tacitus, History, Bk.5, para.12.) These two references (Aristeas and Tacitus) are NOT describing the Gihon Spring (the sole spring of water in Jerusalem). It was because of the strategic location of this single spring that the original Canaanite cities of "Migdol Edar" and "Jebus" were built over and around that water source before the time of King David.

This middle fortress with its solid walls and projecting towers, was probably built by Uzziah of Judah (784-733), the king who regained control of Edom, campaigned against the North Arabian tribes, and rebuilt the port of Ezion-Geber on the Gulf of Aqaba. This second fortress at Kadesh-Barnea was also destroyed, only to be followed in the seventh-sixth centuries B.C. by the third and final fortress. Josiah, King of Judah (c. 640-609 B.C.), who vigorously reasserted his nation's independence and power, was probably responsible for building the third fortress. This fortress existed until the end of the Iron Age and was evidently destroyed, along with the Kingdom of Judah, in the onslaught by Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon. It is significant that, of all the Iron Age fortresses in the Central Negev and Sinai, only Kadesh-Barnea was twice rebuilt.

But it seems quite clear that the Jews never regarded the spirit as a person; nor is there any solid evidence that any Old Testament writer held this view. A few scholars today maintain, however, that even though the spirit is usually presented as an impersonal divine force, there is an under-lying assumption that the spirit was a conscious agent, which 'provided a climate in which plurality within the Godhead was conceivable."

The Bible and Children's Responsibility to the Parents This is what is meant by the wise man when he said in Proverbs 22, verse 6, "Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old he will not depart from it". It is understood then that the law is to be obeyed by the child is that which will make him a fine, decent, responsible person. Instructions of parents should be revered by children beyond the parents death. No time limit then on "Children obey your parents in the Lord" Ephesians 6:1. The other word that stands out so predominantly ... It is important that we pause to say that parents have the responsibility to provide the proper atmosphere in the home so that the child can develop an appreciation for law and order given by parents.

Harnack, Adolf: Outlines of the History of Dogma ... The discovery of the Didache in 1883 forced A. von Harnack to modify these ideas considerably, by recognizing that the offices of apostle, prophet and teacher were intended for the use of the whole church, and not just the local congregation, so that the 'club' model was inappropriate. However, Harnack never deserted Hatch's main thesis, in spite of the evidence which appeared to contradict it." (Bray, Gerald, Biblical Interpretation: Past and Present, IVP, 1996, p.362) "But the church nevertheless used concepts of the hellenistic world. You should not call them Greek pure and simple, for Classical Greek did not last far beyond the second century before Christ. Hellenism followed this, and Hellenism is a mixture of Greek, Persian, Egyptian, Jewish and even Indian elements, and mystical groups of all kinds.

Casebook of Biblical Psychiatry Version 7: The case of "potato ... ... James reminded Adam that suicide was not a solution, but a cowardly and selfish escape from the consequences of his actions that would deeply hurt his family. James gave Adam his cell phone number and make him promise that if at any time in the future he was thinking about suicide, that Adam could call immediately even if it was 4 am! Adam made this promise but never called. Adam then stunned his family (and James) that if James had not dropped in for his random visit three months earlier, he would have hung himself before the day was through. This tragic story exactly parallels "It's a Wonderful Life" where financial disaster triggers a suicide attempt that was thwarted by Clarence the angel. The truth is that God will never allow us to be tempted beyond that which we are able. God loves us all so very dearly and is a very real help in a time of trouble.

If, as we saw in the previous chapter, it is possible to deduce the location of the Temple building and its Holy of Holies, then it might be possible to locate where the Ark once was placed within this structure.
