Fr. Mike walks us through the current battles of Judas Maccabeus and the Israelite people, emphasizing that while war is violent, freedom to belong to God and worship him is worth fighting for.

We read the fascinating book confusingly called 3 Maccabees (which is mostly about Jews in Egypt BEFORE the time of the Maccabees) in the light of Exodus 15, Daniel 3, Daniel 6, Esther, and Jonah 2. God is not confined to the Temple, but comes to the aid of His people everywhere when they pray.

All of Scripture comes to this: hope and trust.Not in the work of our hands, but in the righteousness of God.He alone vindicates the poor, he alone tends the needy.He is the Good Shepherd, the breath in the night,the voice that calms the storm,the hand that keeps the wolf at bay.Will we close the gates?Will we bind ourselves in chains?Will we send him away?To wait is to hope.Yet waiting is also a test,a scrutiny that ends in failure or in faith,in ruin or in steadfastness.Who can endure?Who will remain when the King returns—ignoring the mockery of nations,turning only for his guidance,submitting to his Command before the Hour,trusting in the Day?“Lift up your heads, you gates,And be lifted up, you ancient doors,That the King of glory may come in!Who is the King of glory?The Lord strong and mighty,The Lord mighty in battle.Lift up your heads, you gates,And lift them up, you ancient doors,That the King of glory may come in!Who is this King of glory?The Lord of hosts,He is the King of glory.” (Psalm 24:7-10)This week, I discuss Luke 8:40.Καὶ ἐν τῷ ὑποστρέφειν τὸν Ἰησοῦν ἀπεδέξατο αὐτὸν ὁ ὄχλος· ἦσαν γὰρ πάντες προσδοκῶντες αὐτόν.“And as Jesus returned, the crowd welcomed ἀπεδέξατο (apedéxato) him, for they were all waiting προσδοκῶντες (prosdokôntes) for him.”Show Notesἀποδέχομαι (apodechomai)ἀποδέχομαι (apodechomai) is a compound (ἀπό + δέχομαι) constructed on the core usages of “receiving, welcoming, taking in.” The prefix ἀπό (apo) heightens the action, not just marking reception but sharpening it into a decisive acceptance: an acknowledgment that leans toward submission rather than casual receiving.Its itinerary begins in the Greek text with the notion of hospitality and reception: the gates opened for Judith, the honor paid in Joppa, the joyful welcome of brothers in Jerusalem, and the warm acceptance of a report. From there, its usage expands into the realm of acknowledgment and recognition: the acceptance of terms, the granting of petitions, the understanding of a matter, the admission of information, the acknowledgment of divine sovereignty, the cognitive recognition of realities, and the formal acknowledgments offered in speech. Finally, in the New Testament, the term reaches its full significance in submission to the divine words: those who receive the apostolic proclamation do not merely admit or recognize but firmly accept it as God's own words, surrendering themselves in baptism.Judith 13:13: HOSPITALITY AND RECEPTION “When they heard her voice, they hurried to call the elders of the city. They all ran together, both small and great, because it seemed unbelievable to them that she had returned, and they opened the gate and welcomed [ἀπεδέξαντο (apedexanto), aorist middle indicative] them.”1 Maccabees 9:71: ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF TERMS “Thus the sword ceased from Israel. And Jonathan lived at Michmash. And Jonathan began to judge the people, and he accepted [ἀπεδέξατο (apedexato), aorist middle indicative] the situation at that time.”3 Maccabees 3:17: ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF PETITION “When the people heard this, they raised an outcry to heaven, so that those who were nearby and those far away were astonished at the sound of their united cry. But the king, considering their unity, accepted [ἀπεδέξατο (apedexato), aorist middle indicative] their plea.”Tobit 7:16: ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF UNDERSTANDING “And Raguel called his wife Edna, and said to her, ‘Sister, prepare the other room and bring her there.' She went and spread the bed with her for her, as he had said, and she brought her there. And she understood [ἀπεδέξατο (apedexato), aorist middle indicative] the matter.”2 Maccabees 3:9: FORMAL ADMISSION OF INFORMATION “So he told him about the great amount of money under the king's control, and that Apollonius the governor had informed him. And Heliodorus went to the king and admitted [ἀπεδέξατο (apedexato), aorist middle indicative] what had been told.”2 Maccabees 3:35: RECOGNITION OF DIVINE SOVEREIGNTY “And Heliodorus offered sacrifice to the Lord and made very great vows to Him who had granted him life, and he acknowledged [ἀπεδέξατο (apedexato), aorist middle indicative] the Lord of all.”2 Maccabees 4:22: TRIBAL WELCOME WITH HONOR “And when he came into Joppa, he was welcomed [ἀπεδέχθη (apedechthē), aorist passive indicative] magnificently by the people.”3 Maccabees 5:27: JOYFUL ACCEPTANCE OF REPORT “But the Jews, as they heard this and perceived the invincible protection, praised the Lord, who had so miraculously manifested Himself, and they received [ἀπεδέξαντο (apedexanto), aorist middle indicative] the report with joy.”4 Maccabees 3:20: COGNITIVE ACKNOWLEDGEMENT “For since reason rules over the emotions, it is evident that the emotions are not destroyed. For if the emotions had been destroyed, it would not be possible for reason to recognize [ἀποδέχεσθαι (apodechesthai), present middle infinitive] any of them.”Acts 2:41: SUBMISSION TO THE WORD “So then, those who had received [ἀποδεξάμενοι (apodexamenoi), aorist middle participle] his word were baptized; and that day there were added about three thousand souls.”Acts 15:4: TRIBAL WELCOME AND ACCEPTANCE OF REPORT “When they arrived in Jerusalem, they were welcomed [ἀπεδέχθησαν (apedechthēsan), aorist passive indicative] by the church and the apostles and the elders, and they reported all that God had done with them.”Acts 18:27: FRATERNAL WELCOME TIED TO MISSION “And when he wanted to go across to Achaia, the brothers encouraged him and wrote to the disciples to welcome [ἀποδέξασθαι (apodexasthai), aorist middle infinitive] him; and when he had arrived, he greatly helped those who had believed through grace.”Acts 21:17: TRIBAL WELCOME “After we arrived in Jerusalem, the brothers welcomed [ἀπεδέξαντο (apedexanto), aorist middle indicative] us gladly.”Acts 24:3: “We acknowledge [ἀποδεχόμεθα (apodechometha), present middle indicative] this in every way and everywhere, most excellent Felix, with all thankfulness.” FORMAL ADMISSION OF INFORMATIONActs 28:30: “Now Paul stayed two full years in his own rented quarters and was welcoming [ἀπεδέχετο (apedecheto), imperfect middle indicative] all who came to him.” FRATERNAL WELCOME TIED TO MISSION1 Thessalonians 2:13: DECISIVE SUBMISSION TO DIVINE WORD“For this reason we also constantly thank God that when you received [παραλαβόντες (paralabontes), aorist active participle] the word of God which you heard from us, you accepted [ἀποδεξάμενοι (apodexamenoi), aorist middle participle] it not as the word of men, but as what it really is, the word of God, which also is at work in you who believe.”προσδοκάω (prosdokaō)Expect, wait for, look for.

Professor Kozlowski embarks on yet another discussion of politics and the Bible. Here we will look at the basic outline of the gospel, as well as key passages from Genesis, Deuteronomy, Judges, 1 Samuel, Matthew, Acts, and 1 Timothy that illuminate the Biblical perspective on politics and government - if there is one.https://www.biblegateway.com contains a wide variety of Biblical translations, including all the passages discussed in this lecture. I recommend the ESV for beginners.No official additional readings for today, though I do recommend and make reference reference to other Biblical, apocryphal, and related texts, like: 1 & 2 Kings, Acts, 1 & 2 Maccabees, and Josephus' Antiquities of the Jews and Wars of the Jews. For my gamers, I'll recommend Afterlife - but mostly as a joke.If you're interested in Professor Kozlowski's other online projects, check out his website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠professorkozlowski.wordpress.com

In this episode we consider the stories of Jonathan and Simon, finishing our study of 1 Maccabees (1 Maccabees 9:24-16:24), and then turn to the stories of martyrdom in 2 Maccabees 7. Our readings are clarified by passages from the Old Testament (1 Kings/3 Kingdoms 5:4, Micah 4:4, Zechariah 8:4, and Ezekiel 34:27) as well as from the New Testament (Hebrews 12; Romans 4:17). Intertwined narratives of war and peace on the grand scale, and personal martyrdom with the hope of resurrection, offer encouragement to us to remain faithful in our own day.

NO MYTHICAL LAND has captured the imagination of poets, dreamers, and adventurers like Atlantis. But why should Christians care? Doug Van Dorn (www.douglasvandorn.com), author of Giants: Sons of the Gods; and Brian Godawa (www.Godawa.com), best-selling author of the theological thriller Cruel Logic, and a two new novels based on the period of the Maccabees in Judea, join us for our monthly Iron and Myth round table to discuss the legendary island nation and its continuing influence on human thought. (Dr. Judd Burton had technical issues logging on and wasn't able to join us as planned.) Our conversation delves into the enduring fascination with Atlantis, exploring its origins in Plato's writings and its implications for understanding ancient civilizations. We especially look at the connections between Atlantis and biblical narratives, the cultural influence of the myth, and the various geographical theories surrounding its location. We also examine the impact of Atlantis on modern occult teachings and the human desire for lost knowledge, ultimately questioning the significance of Atlantis in contemporary thought.
