English Hebrew Bible

How much do you know about the beliefs and spiritual ideas embraced by Jews of the Second Temple Era?

For example, probably very little of what we’ve included in this publication would have seen the light of day if we hadn’t learned a long time ago to approach everything from an Hebraic perspective. No matter how many times we translate it into other languages the Bible is still an Hebraic book, which introduces several important considerations. Undoubtedly the most important would be the Hebraic approach to writing history, recording ...

In the Biblical story of Sodom and Gomorrah, when God decrees to destroy the cities, the Patriarch Abraham questions and argues with God on behalf of wicked people he doesn’t know, while in the story of the binding of Isaac, he is unquestioningly obedient and submissive when asked to offer as a sacrifice his beloved son who is innocent of any wrongdoing. The obvious question that arises is – how can the very same Abraham, who questions and argues with God on behalf of wicked people, be silent when asked to offer as a sacrifice his beloved son, innocent of wrongdoing? Abraham’s silence...

Some people believe questioning the Bible, the direction God is going, or even God himself, is blasphemy. Some think it’s a sign of disbelief. Daniel Thornton is one such man. He believes his son, Rusty Thornton, is lost without God and takes him to a faraway place in the early 1950s near Spicewood, Texas, where he would never come in contact with people. He has an old King James Version of the Bible and began to try and cure his son’s affliction of skepticism.
