Hebrew Tradition

When we conjure up the idea of the devil and the demonic hordes in our mind, we are often thinking in the context of how Christianity has portrayed them. The devil and his supposed horns, the Exorcist’s battle with the demon possessed, the inverted cross, the Osculum infame (The Infamous kiss) or the Black Mass in which a young woman is sacrificed to Satan. All these are mostly influenced by Christian ideas in some way or another. The Prominence of Christianity in the study of demonology cannot be denied.

What does it mean to read the plain meaning of the Hebrew Bible? Do the biblical prophets not speak in shrouded phrases? Does the Hebrew Bible not speak in allegory or metaphor at times? Does the simple reading of the text not imply a certain understanding of the historical and cultural context in which it was written? Can we accept the idea of a biblical text that requires an independent tradition to explain and provide the necessary foundation to even read the text in a correct grammatical form? These questions and the related answers cannot, in and of themselves, provide the foundations ...

A brief passage, a long history of interpretation. Genesis 6:1–4 is striking for its brevity—and for the centuries of debate it has provoked. In only a few lines, Scripture names the “sons of God” and the Nephilim, yet offers almost no explanation, leaving readers to wrestle with the text itself. This book stays close to the wording of the passage and keeps a careful distinction: what the text actually says and how it has been read. It guides the reader through the major interpretive lines that emerged in Jewish and Christian tradition, without allowing later systems to drown out ...

The Old Testament is one of the most carefully studied books in the world’s history. It is also one of the most misunderstood. This founding text of the world’s three largest religions is also, Erich Fromm argues, an impressive radical humanist text. He sees the stories of mankind’s transition from divided clans to united brotherhood as a tribute to the human power to overcome. Filled with hopeful symbolism, You Shall Be as Gods shows how the Old Testament and its tradition is an inspiring ode to human potential.

This divine ordinance is evident from the very beginning, with the creation of Adam and Eve, where the union of man and woman is presented as a foundational aspect of human existence. This early biblical narrative establishes marriage as an institution designed for companionship, ...

“The following day Moses sat to settle disputes for the people, while the people stood around Moses from morning till evening” (Ex 18:13). Moses the judge?

We can clearly see similarities to ancient Israel and the modern judicial system, however we can also see similarities to another governing system. African kings, queen mothers and chiefs are the authority of a tribal government! ...
