6 Ancient Hebrew page Which people did the Israelites defeat while traveling to Sinai because of God s hand? A. Assyrians B. Amalekites C. Hittites D. Phoenicians Essay: Answer the following questions using three to five sentences. 1. How did the Hittites differ from the Phoenicians? They were more interested in war and conquest than trade. 2. Give three examples of how God was with the Israelites in the wilderness? 1. God fed the Israelites by sending rains of manna. 2. God gave the Israelites water by allowing it to gush from a desert rock. 3. God helped the Israelites to conquer the Amalekites as power flowed from Moses staff. 3. How does the Jewish faith differ from Christianity? How are they alike? The Jewish faith believe that they are still waiting for the promised Messiah, they are still under the yoke of the law, and they still celebrate the Old Testament feast days and holidays. Christians believe that Jesus is the Messiah, that salvation can never be merited but is a gift of mercy from the Father through His Son, and that the Gentile believers are not under obligation to celebrate the old festivals. Both the Jews and Christians believe in the one True God and much of the worship services of the Christian church are founded in the Jewish system.
