Lesson 1 Intro To Genesis. Details Category: Genesis Week 1, INTRODUCTION Today we start a journey that millions of Hebrews and Christians have taken over the last 3000 years. We are going to study the Torah, which is the first and oldest section of the original Hebrew Bible. Torah: a word that few Christians have ever heard of, and fewer have any idea what it actually is. The Torah is the Hebrew name for the first 5 books of our Bible: Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy. Torah is not a word you’ll find in our modern bibles. Over a hundred years ago, a company in Atlanta, Georgia wanted to join in the new and growing market for flavored, but non-alcoholic, beverages. Coca-Cola so dominated the soft drink market that a curious thing happened: it garnered a nickname: Coke. Now, any American would perfectly understand that dialogue and not find it at all odd. Torah is the same way. But, wait, it gets more complicated.

Today, what we Christians call the OT, Jews call The Tanakh. Laurel University - DAE. Complete Bible Genealogy - Jesus family tree - Kings of Judah and Israel. God’s Yellow Pages. Products | New Testament Greek. Hell, Hades, Gehenna, and the Realm of the Dead (Acts 2:27) Hell is a slippery concept; and no, I’m not talking about recent debates. I am talking about what the word ᾅδης means. I was reminded of this in reading the NIV of Acts 2:27. Peter cites Ps 16:10 as fulfilled in Christ. “You will not abandon me to the realm of the dead, you will not let your holy one see decay.” ᾍδης occurs ten times in the New Testament.
