1 Packing for Israel Lesson 2: The History of the Bible Part A I. Introduction A. Word about time designation BC: Before Christ, AD: Anno Domini or year of the Lord, BCE: Before the Common Era, CE: Common Era Please note: 1. BCE and CE have been adopted by publishers who wish to remain neutral or sensitive to non-christians 2. The Anno Domini designation is arguably not accurate. Christ was likely born in 4-6 BC II.

Foreign Empires that ruled in Israel Period Empire Major Events 587 BCE Babylonian Destruction of the first Temple BCE Persian Return of the exiled Jews from Babylon and construction of the second Temple ( BCE) BCE Hellenistic 63 BCE-313 CE Roman Conquest of the region by the army of Alexander the Great (333 BCE). The Greeks generally allowed the Jews to run their state. But, during the rule of the king Antiochus IV, the Temple was desecrated. This brought about the revolt of the Maccabees, who established an independent rule. The related events are celebrated during the Hanukah holiday. The Roman army led by Titus conquered Jerusalem and destroyed the Second Temple at 70 CE. Jewish people were then exiled and dispersed to the Diaspora. In 132, Bar Kokhba organized a revolt against Roman rule, but was killed in a battle in Bethar in Judean Hills. Subsequently the Romans decimated the Jewish community, renamed Jerusalem as Aelia Capitolina and Judea as Palaestina to obliterate Jewish identification with the Land of Israel (the word Palestine, and the Arabic word Filastin originate from this Latin name) Byzantine Arab Crusaders Mamluk Ottoman British Dome of the Rock was built by Caliph Abd el-malik on the grounds of the destroyed Jewish Temple. The crusaders came from Europe to capture the Holy Land following an appeal by Pope Urban II, and massacred the non-christian population. Later Jewish community in Jerusalem expanded by immigration of Jews from Europe. During the reign of Sultan Suleiman the Magnificent ( ) the walls of the Old City of Jerusalem were rebuilt. Population of the Jewish community in Jerusalem increased. Great Britain recognized the rights of the Jewish people to establish a "national home in Palestine". Yet they greatly curtailed entry of Jewish refugees into Israel even after World War II. They split Palestine mandate into an Arab state which has become the modern day Jordan, and Israel. (
3 C. Some key biblical dates to memorize 1. Abraham approximately 2000 BC 2. David approximately 1000 BC 3. Jesus approximately -0- III. The Patriarchs A. The age of the patriarchs (pre-egyptian Hebrews) was approximately BC Patriarchs: Greek word meaning father-ruler B. Apparently the Hebrews do not appear in recorded history until the reign of Marniptah, King of Egypt from ( BC). On a military campaign, an account is etched in granite listing conquered people and the Israelites are mentioned as those now living in Canaan. (Jewish Virtual Library) C. The biblical record is found in Genesis (The Middle and Late Bronze Age) D. The patriarchs are Abraham (Gen ), Isaac (Gen ), Jacob (Gen ) and many would add Joseph (Gen ). E. Consider the travel of the patriarchs:
4 1. Abraham Abram means exalted father Abraham means father of a multitude a. His story 1) His birth and call to the promised land (Gen ) 2) Ur Haran Canaan (Gen. 12:1-20) 3) He deals with his nephew Lot (Gen ) 4) He pays tithes to Melchizedek (Gen. 14 and Heb. 7:1-10) 5) Abraham s Lapses of Faith a) He lied twice to protect himself Gen. 12:11-20, Gen. 20:1-13. b) He slept with Hagar in order to get an heir. Gen. 16:1-16 and Gen. 21:9-14 6) God s covenant with Abraham (Gen. 15:1-21 and Rom. 4:1-25, Gal. 3:6-25 and Heb. 6:13-20) a) This was a one-sided covenant God s self imposed obligation to Abraham (Gen. 17:7) b) It foreshadows the new covenant (See Heb. 8:7-9:25) between God and the believer 7) Covenants: a solemn binding with both blessing and curses attached. Involved a formal ratification: salt (Num. 18:19, Lev. 2:13) a shoe (Book of Ruth) and blood (Heb. 9:12) Special note: Three monotheistic religions (Judaism, Christianity and Islam) all lay claims to the Abrahamic Covenant. For the Jewish reference see Ps. 105:1-44, for the Christians see Gal. 3:10-29, for the Muslims see the Quran 2:124-2:140 8) Birth of Ishmael (Gen. 16:1-16) 9) 13 years later the promised son Isaac (Gen ) and Romans 4:18-25, Hebrews 11:11-12). Abram is 100 and Sarai is 90 10) Hagar and Ishmael sent away (Gen. 21:8-21, Gal. 4:21-31) 11) Isaac offered as a sacrifice (Gen. 22:1-19, Heb. 11:17-19 and Jam. 2:20-24) 12) Death of Sarah and Abraham (Gen ) the cave at Machpelah 2. Isaac (his name means laughter ) a. Most of the stories about Isaac are actually focused on someone else: His promised birth/abraham
5 His wife / Rebekah His sons / Jacob and Esau b. The stories that focus on him as an adult are in Gen. 26. They mirror stories about his father: 1) He too lied and said his wife was his sister 2) He also negotiated with Abimelech over water rights c. God s covenant is reaffirmed through Jacob (Gen. 26:4-5) d. Isaac marries Rebekah at age 40. At age 60 he had twin sons, Esau (name means hairy ) and Jacob. The elder would serve the younger (Gen. 25:23) e. The blessing of his sons occurs in Gen :5 when Isaac is over 100 years old. f. He died at 180 years old and is buried at Mamre (Hebron). 3. Jacob (his name means supplanter or conniver ) a. He was a fraternal twin of Esau. 1) They were at war with each other before they were even born (Gen. 25:19-34) 2) Esau sells his birthright to Jacob (Gen. 25) b. Jacob deceives Isaac in order to steal his blessing (Gen. 27) c. Jacob journeys from Canaan to Haran region 1) Jacob s dream (Gen. 28) 2) Laban s treachery (Gen. 29) 3) Jacob marries Leah and Rachel (Gen. 29) 4) He prospers (Gen. 30) d. He returns to Canaan and faces Esau (Gen ) e. His name is changed to Israel (meaning Prince of God ) at Peniel on the Jabbock River (Gen. 32) f. Jacob has 12 sons (the twelve tribes of Israel): 1) Rachel: Joseph, Benjamin 2) Leah: Reuben, Simeon, Levi, Judah, Issachar, Zebulun 3) Rachel s handmaid Bilhah: Dan, Naphtali 4) Leah s handmaid Zilpah: Gad, Asher 4. Joseph (name means may God add )
6 IV. The Exodus a. His birth is found in Gen. 30:22-24, the rest of his life is covered in Gen b. The eleventh son of Jacob, son of Rachel, father of two sons Ephraim and Manasseh. (replacing Joseph and Levi in the twelve tribes of Israel) c. At 17 years of age, he was sold into slavery by his brothers (Gen. 37) d. Eventually he become the second in command to the pharaoh of Egypt and makes tremendous preparations for a devastating regional famine. e. Eventually his brothers seek help in Egypt and are finally reconciled to Joseph (Gen ) f. Joseph lived to the age of 110 and was buried in Shechem (Ex. 13:19 and Joshua 24:32) A. The Hyksos ruled Egypt from BC. They were a Semitic group (similar in background to Abraham s family) which may explain their assistance to Joseph and his brothers. B. Israelites under persecution 1. Joseph s family arrived in Egypt as his guests (Gen. 50). After a period of time, the Hebrews became Egyptian slaves. There arose up a new King over Egypt who knew not Joseph (Ex. 1:8). It is generally accepted that Seti I ( BC) was the Pharaoh of the oppression and Ramses II ( BC) was the Pharaoh of the Exodus. 2. God raised up a leader named Moses who appears on the scene in approximately 1525 BC (see Ex. 1-4). His father was Amram and his mother was Jochebed. After being initially rejected by the Hebrew slaves, Moses was called by God to lead His people out of Egypt. (Burning bush Ex. 3) 3. He and his brother Aaron confront Pharaoh in an attempt to have him let the children of Israel leave and return to their land. (See Ex. 5-13).
7 C. Wanderings of the Israelites 1. Statistics (12:37-42) ,000 men plus women and children maybe 2-3 million people 3. Consecration of the first born and the Passover regulations (13:1-16) 4. The drama at the Red Sea ( yam suph sea of reeds ) (14:1 15:21)
8 a. Note: there are number of scholarly articles arguing for a particular location of the Red Sea. Some have it as the Gulf of Aqaba, others believe it to be the Gulf of Suez. Neither seems likely due to: 1) Those bodies of water are note made up of actual reeds 2) Their location does not square with the location of the Israelites first encampment in the Wilderness of Shur. It is likely the Red Sea was located at the northern end of the Gulf of Suez. 5. The journey continues (15:22 18:27) D. The Stages of Israel s Journey 1. It took approximately 24 months for Israel to travel from Egypt to Kadesh Barnea. The straight line route via the way of the Philistines was only 249 miles an 11 day trek. 2. The debacle at Kadesh Barnea Num. 14:20-38, Deut. 1: Note the sentence: vs. 23, Moses mistake Num. 20:13 4. The Talking Donkey Num The record of Israel s wanderings Num 33:1-48 and Deut. 2:14 V. Joshua leads the conquest of Canaan Pay special attention to the scope of their assignment: Num. 33:51-56.
9 (The Visual Resource Book, p.45)
10 A. The Military Efforts: Took 6 years. They did not complete the job. 1. The Central Campaign: Focused on the cities of Jericho and Ai and then the cities of the western foothills. ***The story of Rahab fits here (Joshua 2) 2. The Southern Campaign: Focused cities such as Lachish, Debir, Libnah, Eglon and Makkedah. 3. The Northern Campaign: Focused on the area west and north of the Sea of Galilee. VI. The Period of Judges A. Title of the book: Shophatim from the Hebrew root, to judge These judges also served as military leaders whom God would raise up to lead his people in times of crises. B. The book of Judges covers the time period from the death of Joshua to the beginning of the monarchy under Saul. C. Loose confederation of 12 tribes moving towards a unified kingdom. D. While the book of Joshua records victory after victory for the people of God, the book of Judges records a series of stories outlining the apostasy of Israel. (see Judges 2:10-16) E. Compare Joshua 24:15 and Judges 2:11-13 F. The loose federation made them more vulnerable to well-armed, well organized enemies. It was a time of religious and political turmoil for the Israelites. Primarily, the struggle was with neighboring countries (Moab, the Midianites, Ammon and the Philistines). However, there was also struggle against the Canaanites who lived in the land (especially during the time of Deborah). And the Israelites also fought among themselves Ephraim was ravaged by Manasseh in chapter 12 and Benjamin was almost annihilated by the other tribes in chapters (Expositor s Bible Commentary, Vol. 3, pg. 376). G. Judges gives a geographical survey of apostasy illustrating a sequence of events that climax in the statement everyman did that which was right in his own eyes (See 17:6, 21:25). H. The cycle of: rebellion, defeat, repentance and deliverance is repeated seven times in this book. Sin against God, God allows an enemy to oppress the people, the people repent and ask for a deliverer the redeemed and then fall back into sin. Example Judges 3:7-31, 4:1.
