301: The Rectangular Fortress at Kadesh Barnea, David Ussishkin, 1995 ...
... Cohen assumed that the 'middle fortress' was constructed in the eighth century B.C.E., perhaps in the course of Uzziah's rule, and destroyed in the middle of the seventh century, perhaps during the reign of Manasseh. The 'upper fortress' was built, in his opinion, in the seventh century B.C.E. during Josiah's reign and destroyed in 586 B.C.E. by the Babylonian army. 15 Many elements in the fortifications of the rectangular fortress at Kadesh-Barnea can be compared to other Iron Age fortifications in Palestine. Here I shall mention only the Iron Age enclosure at Tel Jezreel, apparently constructed by the Omride dynasty in the ninth century B.C.E. The Tel Jezreel enclosure is rectangular as well, surrounded by a casemate wall with projecting towers at the corners. A massive rampart is laid against the exterior of the wall and towers. A retaining wall supporting the outer edge of the rampart and a deep rock-cut moat form the external elements of the fortifications. The rampart and the ... ...

302: Negev Pottery: "Negev ware" "Negevite ware" Crude, hand made ...
... It is our opinion that Solomon's soldiers made Negev pottery while manning the forts of remote locations like Qudeirat. We must keep in mind that Negev pottery is found at fortresses that Solomon built in 950 BC. These were military installations to protect and enforce the ancient border with Egypt. Perhaps there was a lack of ... Rothenberg makes his final blunder in suggesting that Hezekiah wiped out the Amalekites in the Negev based upon 1 Chronicles 4:42-43: "From them, from the sons of Simeon, five hundred men went to Mount Seir, with Pelatiah, Neariah, Rephaiah and Uzziel, the sons of Ishi, as their leaders. They destroyed the remnant of the Amalekites ... Although not enough archaeological evidence exists so far for the accurate dating of these settlements, the Timna Temple finds strongly corroborate the view that many of the agricultural settlements and hill fortresses in the Central Negev predate the Israelite conquest of Palestine and already existed as fortified Amalekite ... ...

303: When & Where Did The New Testament Church Begin?
Therefore, the promise to all the faithful patriarchs and prophets of all was to be fulfilled in the church, the body of Christ. Eph. 5: 23-25. About six months before His death, Christ said, "upon this rock I will build my church" Matthew 16:16-18. In the Old Testament many predictions were made concerning the church or the Kingdom, and that it would never be destroyed. In Isaiah 2:2-4, he states that when the word of Jehovah would go forth from Jerusalem, Jehovah's house was to be established and all nations would flow into it. In Zach. 1:16, God speaking through the prophets said, "My house shall be built in Jerusalem". In Mark 9:1, Jesus told his ... A few months before His death, Jesus said, "Upon this rock I will build my church" (Matthew 16:18). He spoke of some future occasion, but, after the first feast of the Jewish Pentecost following His resurrection, the church was always spoken of as being in existence. Thus, the church had its beginning between the time that Jesus ... ...

The Lord is to be glorified by the worship He receives in His church. In Ephesians 3:21 we read, "To Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus." But how many churches does the Lord have?

313: Sabbath and Sunday in Early Christianity: Dr. David W. T. Brattston
before Constantine, is unanimous that the main day of the week for early Christians to gather and worship was not the seventh-day Sabbath, but Sunday, which they sometimes called "the first day" or "the eighth day" or "the Lord's Day". We have inklings of this already in apostolic times: (1) in Acts 20.7 Christians at Troas celebrated Holy Communion and listened to a sermon "upon the first day of the week", and (2) in 1 Corinthians 16.2 we are exhorted: "Upon the first day of the week let every one of you lay by him in store, as God hath prospered him, that there be no gatherings when I come.". In opposition to Sabbath-keeping and other Jewish practices, ... It was not written as a balanced presentation of uncontroverted history, but as propaganda to win Protestants into full formal membership in the papal church through arguments built on logical consistency; it was directed to Protestants who did not know the reasons for their beliefs and practices and lacked the resources to learn ... ...
