The gory details of the sacrificial system remind us that sin brings death. Two generations of Israelites are described in Numbers. God keeps the first generation out of the Promised Land, but He allows the second one to enter. Deuteronomy 28 mentions the blessings and curses of the covenant.

Saul appointed David leader over his armies, but he became jealous and angry because of David's success (God was with David and had left Saul) and sought to kill him. Had great success because God was with David/ David trusted/believe in/faithfully following God Man after God’s own heart Defeated Goliath while no one else could David could have killed Saul but believed Saul was in God's hands and that he was forbidden to put Saul to death himself …ran away from him instead 2 Samuel 5 David moan for Saul/ his two sons Anointed king of all Israelites/Anointed by God Nation is still one Davidic covenant God promises a descendant of David to reign on the throne over the people of God. Victory over victory 2Samuel 11 Story line changes Power—abuse— consequences Bathsheba >she became pregnant after David saw her bathing on a rooftop and had her brought to him. David then ordered that uriah the hittite (the night before got him drunk) be moved to the front-line of a battle, where he was killed. David murdered Uriah by proxy by ordering all of Uriah's comrades to abandon him in the midst of battle, so that he ended up getting killed by an opposing army. Following Uriah's death, David took Bathsheba as his eighth wife, the woman he impregnated Nathan told David God despised him for what he did David first response: Broke down and repented (while it took Saul three occasions to confess sin) ConseQuence: you will not die but your son born to you will die The sword that shall never depart from your house David married the widowed Bathsheba, but their first child died as punishment from God for David's adultery and murder of Uriah. David repented of his sins, and Bathsheba later gave birth to Solomon.

Answer 18

``` 1 king 3 Wisdom Son a David Was anointed king/past down to him Give your servant a discerning heart to govern the great people of yours ``` I will give you both of what you have ask for ( discerning heart ) and what you have not ask David and the two prostitutes The Judgement of Solomon is a biblical tale from 1 Kings 3:16-28. It tells the story of two women who came to the King with two young babies- one alive and one dead. Both claimed that the living child was their own and that the other woman was only pretending to be the mother of the surviving infant. The wise king ordered that the baby be split in two, with one-half of the baby going to each mother. The first mother’s position was to accept the king’s judgment as fair, and the second’s was to give the baby to the first. Whereupon the king determined that the infant son obviously belonged to the second, as evidenced by her willingness to sacrifice her own self-interest for the good of the child, as a true mother would. The wise king thus deployed a clever approach to discover the veracity of one party over the other. 1 king 10:2 Divided Kingdom/ United Monarchy Cause: 1 Kings 10:14–29. ( description of Solomon reign and wealth) Richer than any other kings. 11: 1-7. Loved many foreign women besides pharaoh’s daughter > was told not to marry any foreign/ will turn to other god> Solomon had 700 wives and 300 Cucubines ( ) a woman who lives with a man but has lower status than his wife or wives) > mistress> wives led him astray to follow after other gods > took horses from Egypt [Compare to Deuteronomy 17:14-20]. Not to go back to Egypt / not to take many wives or his heart will be led astray / not accumulate silver and gold ( Solomon accumulates 25 tons annually ) 1 kings 11:9-13 Because of your sins I will tear the kingdom down and give it to your subordinate I will give your son a portion because of your father David Effect: 1 Kings 12—-2 Kings 25 Because of Solomon unfaithfulness to the covenant the kingdom split in TWO Northern Kingdom: Israel (10 Tribes)—Samaria ( City Capital)> to the north All the kings are evil Southern Kingdom: Judah (2 Tribes) —Jerusalem (city capital) to the south A few kings are good There is a civil war that cause the split Evil kings Prophets : repent / judgment is coming Judgement is coming but his faithful love is still present Even in the midst of bad God is still at work In the midst of Judgement God does not forget his promises Captivity and Destruction Israel (Northern Kingdom): Conquered in 722 B.C. by Assyrians Cause to the split >2 kings 17: 7 Judah (Southern Kingdom): Conquered in 586 B.C. by Babylonians 2 kings 25: Not wise in regards to covenant relationship

Answer 20

Approximately 430 years occur/ exist between the closing of the book of Malachi and birth of Christ Announcing the a straight path to the messiah The United Kingdom that was once was divided into captivity > were release and established back in their home country Not everyone went back But Israel is still under captivity The many of Israel that didn’t return home after the release are scattered throughout the Middle East. Persians ruled over Judah When the Old Testament concludes the Persians is reigning over Israel the people that stayed Asyrrians( ruled northern Kingdom)>babylions( ruled sorthern kingdom) when The kingdom(Israel ) splits in two > OTestament concludes with Persians reigning > than we have the intertestamental period when Greek empire reign and than Rome reign Assyrian> Babylonians>Persians>Greek Empire>Rome Rome owned everything during their reign. Their reign was immense(extremely large or great…..huge) intertestamental period > The time between the last writings of the Old Testament and the appearance of Christ is known as the “intertestamental” (or “between the testaments”) period. Even in that period God was at work/ even through Israel mess when some decide not to go home but spread out/ God was at work It leads to the spread of synagogue throughout and the teachings of the Torah ( a group of people continued in God were call God Fearers) There were a faithful remnant( small remaining quantity of something….scrap)as we move to the Old Testament anticipated the coming of the messiah Now under Alexander the Great(Greek empire) >334bc The are two projections of the messiah in the Old Testament Of a conquering King /Davidic king that will physically reign eternally And of a Suffering servant that will suffer for his people Isaiah 53 Testament means covenant. Therefore we have the old and new covenant Because of that some group thought there would be two messiah Matthew>KING primarily Jewish identified Jesus as the Jewish king> goes to great lengths of showing Jesus is greater than Moses that he is the Jewish messiah> it’s like going back to Abraham/Moses Mark> SERVE> one keyword that shows up mark gospel> the servant side of Jesus> didn’t come to be serve but to serve> to show us he came to go to the cross Luke > MAN>shows us the humanity of Jesus> goes to great lengths to show that Jesus is a person like me > it’s like going back to Adam showing Jesus human side John> GOD> showing us that man who became flesh is in fact God The 4 gospels wrap the mystery up to show that there only ONE KING who came to SERVE and a MAN who is GOD In the four gospels all covenant are fulfill by Jesus Christ by not all covenant has yet been fulfilled by Jesus Christ * Messiah’s Earthly Message: * A Call to the Kingdom of God * “Reign of God over all creation—and especially His people.” * Kingdom of God was present in Christ (Mt. 11:11-12; 18:1-5) * One joins this Kingdom through repentance of sin and trust in Jesus * Messiah’s Earthly Sacrifice and Messiah’s Resurrection Acts> theological history > Luke part 2 Theo police> a person > likely a Roman official > likely came to believe in God as the Jewish messiah Not a code name for secret lovers of God Lesson 7: 6 +7 7 days pause before the flood Great deep burst open Could that be the same place where satan will be locked up for a 1000 years. Post Ressurection After sufferering ( crucifixion) Christ appears to Peter> rest of the 12> 500 more men> fellowship Appear every 40 days > not there all the time Baptism of Holy Spirit is on its way don’t leave Jerusalem > you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you Acts > is all about the calling of the 12 to be witnessed of Christ. The Holy Spirit will empower them to be witnesses Acts 1: 8 < could be viewed as the Thesis statement Acts 1:10-11 And while they looked stedfastly toward heaven as he went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel; Which also said, Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven. Acts 2 The sign after the resurrection, the new era, is the Holy Spirit There’s lot Old Testament texts connected to that Questions throughout acts is do gentiles has to become Jews before becoming a Christian? No The blessings are for all people Significance passage in Acts: Acts 2 > Acts 15 > Acts 17 Questions * What is going on in the passage? (summarize the text) * Are there direct Old Testament connections? (passages, references, ) * What are the connections to the Old Testament Master Narrative (Story!)
