Bible Survey & Reference biblical studies NEW NEW usd $19.99 Softcover • 304 pages ISBN 9780310514022 february 2014 DIGITAL FORMATS book Quality Research Papers For Students of Religion and Theology Nancy Vyhmeister with Terry Robertson 3rd Edition This updated third edition of Quality Research Papers—fast becoming a standard reference textbook for writing research papers in the fields of religion and theology—gives improvements and added material for such things as the expanding field of online research and doing church-related research in a professional manner. Because so many new developments have taken place in the field of research, especially in terms of electronic research, this handy reference explores the ways to do both traditional research and research on the Internet, including how to document such research. Quality Research Papers, Third Edition offers great opportunities to students today, especially in distance learning situations, to determine which resources can be used and which should be rejected. For this reason Nancy Vyhmeister brought in Terry D. Robertson, seminary librarian at Andrews University and professor of the seminary master’s level research courses. His expertise in library, computers, and the Internet are invaluable to the book. In addition to substantial current information on electronic resources and online research, this third edition preserves all of the features of the original editions, now presented in a newly revised, more logical order. NANCY VYHMEISTER (EdD, Andrews University) has fifty years of experience in teaching future pastors and professors not only in the United States but throughout the world. She continues to have a global ministry in her retirement years. She has authored several books, both in Spanish and English, including a Greek grammar book for Spanish-speaking students.

Harbin Having taught Old and New Testament survey courses for over twenty years, Michael A. Harbin has written a book to fill the need for a single text that overviews both Testaments in a unifying manner. The Promise and the Blessing traces the writing of the Bible as part of the history of the Israelite people and the nation of Israel, showing how the New Testament naturally flows out of the Old, not only theologically, but also historically. As such, the book follows a historical order rather than a strict canonical one. michael a. harbin (ThD and ThM, Dallas Theological Seminary) is the chair of the biblical studies, Christian education, and philosophy department at Taylor University. He is the author of To Serve Other Gods.

ALEXANDER'S EMPIRE named after him. Alexandria also became a major settlement for Hebrews who did not go back to Judea. 16 His son, Ptolemy II Philadelphus (284–246 BCE), organized his father’s library and instituted major expansions and settlements. Manetho, a major Egyptian historian who provided records of the Egyptian dynasties, worked for him. It was during this time that the Septuagint (a Greek translation of the OT) was made. Wars between the Seleucids and the Ptolemies began during this period, but a tenuous peace was established when Philadelphus gave his daughter in marriage to Antiochus II of Syria. Just before Philadelphus’s death, she and her son were murdered. This act led to further conflicts for Ptolemy IV and V. Ptolemy V, a DANIEL AND THE EMPIRES The age of empires during the intertestamental period is shown by the four beasts in the vision of Daniel 7. Many scholars correlate the third beast (the leopard with four heads) with Alexander’s empire, which divided into several Greek-speaking kingdoms. It is seen in more detail in the vision of the goat and the ram in chapter 8, where Daniel is told specifically that the ram represents Media and Persia, and the goat, Greece. The conflict between Syria and Egypt is traced in significant detail in Daniel 11 (for which reason scholars who do not accept prophetic revelation argue that it must have been written after the Maccabean revolt). Read Acts 16:11–15. PARTHENON. The most famous temple in Athens. It is actually part of a large complex of temples atop a large rock outcropping near the center of the city. hroughout the history of Christianity there have been significant events and locations marking changes in the direction of its growth. Philip’s trip Tto Samaria was one. Peter’s trip to Caesarea was a second. Barnabas’s trip to Antioch was a third. Paul’s vision at Troas was a fourth. Following this, Paul’s ministry circled the Aegean and moved westward toward Rome. While there was already a church in Rome itself, Paul started filling the spaces in between. FIRST CONVERTS IN PHILIPPI As soon as Paul’s companions agreed that his vision was a direction from God, the team took action. They caught a ship and sailed directly to the island of Samothrace and then to Neapolis, a coastal town in Macedonia. Their choice of a direct route indicates that they took advantage of a southeast wind. These ideal conditions would seem to confirm the choice they had made. From Neapolis, they traveled to Philippi. Luke notes that Philippi was both a Roman colony and a major city of the region. As a colony, it tended to follow carefully the leading of Rome. Since Claudius, the emperor, had cast the Jews out of Rome in 49 CE. (see Acts 18:2), it is possible that a similar decision was made in Philippi. 1 Consequently, when Paul and Silas arrived in the fall of 50, they did not find a synagogue in which they could follow their standard process. So on the Sabbath, they went outside the city, looking for “a place of prayer.” When they got to the banks of the Gangites River, where they expected to find a gathering of Jewish men, they found only a group of women. Never one to let an opportunity go by, Paul talked to them about Jesus. One of the women was a merchant of purple fabrics from Thyatira. 2 Her name was Lydia. The nature of her profession shows that she was a part of the upper socioeconomic group. She is also termed “a worshiper of God” (Acts 16:14). PHILIPPI This city, originally called Crenides, was founded in the fourth century BCE and then named after Philip II, king of Macedonia. It was reestablished by Mark Antony in 42 BCE after a battle that he and Octavian fought against Brutus and Cassius. Because of Roman expansion toward Thrace and incorporation of the Scythian tribes along the Black Sea (ca. 46 CE), it was a garrison city on the edge of the empire at the time of the emperor Claudius. also available: niv study bible usd $49.99 Hardcover • 2560 pages ISBN 9780310438922 CHAPTER 17: BRIDGES TO THE NEW TESTAMENT ◗ 363 478 ◗ PART 2: THE BLESSING book is there a doctor in the house?
