How the Bible Was Formed E4 — In the last three episodes of this short series, we focused on the formation of the Hebrew Bible, or the Old Testament. We also talked about other works of literature from the Second Temple period, known collectively as the Deuterocanon or Apocrypha. Today, we'll finally explore yet another collection of Second Temple literature that was formed around the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus—the New Testament.

The Feasts of Armageddon

THE BIBLE describes three feasts around the time of the final battle of the age.Two of these feasts are gruesome. The first takes place at the end of Revelation 17 when the Beast and the ten kings who serve him—supernatural entities, not human political leaders—turn on the great prostitute, Mystery Babylon, “and devour her flesh and burn her up with fire.” (Rev. 17:16)The next takes place as believers rejoice in heaven at the fall of Babylon. This is the marriage supper of the Lamb (Rev. 19:6–10).Finally, there is “the great supper of God,” a sacrificial feast for the “birds that fly directly overhead” (i.e., vultures and carrion birds) to “eat the flesh of kings, the flesh of captains, the flesh of mighty men, the flesh of horses and their riders, and the flesh of all men, both free and slave, both small and great.” (Rev. 19:17–18). For centuries, Bible commentators have noted the parallels between this feast and the one at the end of the war of Gog and Magog (Ezek. 39:17–18). It's not a coincidence; John described the same event as Ezekiel. In other words, the war of Gog and Magog ends at Armageddon.What's more, Jews of the Second Temple period understood that “the mighty” in Ezekiel 39:18 and 20 were “the Travelers” of verse 11—that is, the Rephaim, spirits of the giants (Nephilim) who died in the Flood.This shouldn't surprise you. After all, this battle is the culmination of a long, supernatural war that began in the Garden of Eden.

In this episode I discuss the inherently political nature of the second Jewish temple and the Sanhedrin, which was the local governing body based out of Jerusalem who were threatened by the ministry of Jesus. I explain how ‘religion' is a modern category and that before the Enlightenment wasn't distinguished from politics, society, or economics, and how passages in the Gospels that address the conflict between Jesus and the Jerusalem elites have often been read as purely ‘religious' conflicts. Exploring the work done by scholar Shaye Cohen on the Temple and the Sanhedrin, I show how both served a political and social function that was consistent with the decentralized nature of Roman imperial rule. We then explore several passages in the gospel of Mark which, when read within their historical contexts, should be understood as addressing social and political, as well as theological, conflicts between Jesus, the ruling elites, and the second Temple.  Media Referenced:Cohen, Shaye; From the Maccabees to the Mishnah: https://a.co/d/a3371UMJames McGrath on John the Baptist: https://libertarianchristians.com/episode/ep-134-john-the-baptist-with-james-mcgrath/ The Protestant Libertarian Podcast is a project of the Libertarian Christian Institute and a part of the Christians For Liberty Network.

In this episode you will learn about: The Dead Sea Scrolls, discovered between 1947 in the caves of Qumran near the Dead Sea, are considered the greatest archaeological discovery of the 20th century. They contain over 900 manuscripts, offering profound insights into Jewish life and scriptural interpretation during the Second Temple period. The scrolls are attributed to a Jewish sect most likely the Essenes who withdrew from Jerusalem in protest against what they saw as a corrupt priesthood. They settled at Qumran, living in purity and waiting for the apocalyptic end of days. The discovery included stone vessels, ritual baths (mikvaot), and a scriptorium, all indicating a monastic, religious lifestyle deeply rooted in Scripture. There are three important historians that wrote about them: Philo of Alexandria, Josephus flavious and Pliny the Elder. Philo of Alexandria mentions that the essenes live in villages, not cities, to avoid moral corruption. They renounce wealth and personal property, living communally, they devote themselves to peace, agriculture, and virtue, rejecting war and slavery. Josephus flavius had the most information about the essenes, they reject pleasures, value virtue, and live communally without private property, they avoid marriage, live simply, and emphasize purity and ritual cleanliness, they follow strict discipline, practice daily prayers, and eat in sacred silence and their souls are believed to be immortal, and they view the body as a temporary prison. While Pliny the elder wrote only about the geographical location in his Natural history book and he says that the Essenes live near the Dead Sea, avoiding cities and women, they have no money, only palm trees and simplicity. Not much in details. Three Categories of Scrolls Biblical Canonical Texts: These are the oldest known Hebrew Bible manuscripts, predating the Masoretic Text our primary Hebrew Bible source by over 1,000 years. Every book of the Hebrew Bible was found—except Esther. Apocryphal and Pseudepigraphal Texts: These include works like 1 Enoch and the Book of Jubilees—books that were influential in early Judaism and Christianity, even if not canonized. Sectarian Texts: Unique to Qumran, these writings detail community life, beliefs, and regulations, including the Community Rule, War Scroll, and Thanksgiving Hymns. They reveal a society organized around purity, hierarchy, and eschatological expectation. For the complete Video online course check our website:  www.twinsbiblicalacademy.com/paid-courses

What if the seeds of revival were planted long before the birth of Christ? And what if the struggle to preserve faith in the face of overwhelming cultural pressure laid the foundation for the Gospel's explosive spread across the ancient world?   In this episode of Revival Radio TV, we uncover a forgotten battleground where faith clashed with the seductive allure of Greek philosophy. During the Second Temple period, Judaism itself was torn between two worlds: 1 Maccabees—a political manifesto aimed at legitimizing the Hasmonean dynasty, stripped of miracles and divine intervention—and 2 Maccabees—a passionate defense of traditional faith filled with miracles, martyrdom, and divine deliverance.   The influence of Hellenism reached deep into Jewish culture, dividing the nation between those who compromised with Greek thought and those who clung to the faith of their fathers. It was a culture war that shaped the very world Jesus was born into. But more than that, it laid the groundwork for the great revival to come.   How did this clash of cultures prepare the way for the Messiah? And how does this ancient battle continue to echo through history, even affecting the Church today? Join us as we unravel the mystery of faith, culture, and revival.   RRTV_250413

For many, eschatology stirs a mix of fear and fascination, shaped by teachings of a coming tribulation or a rapture to escape it all. But what if the story of Revelation isn't a distant prophecy to dread, rather a historical and spiritual reality that shifts how we live today? The Bible offers clarity, not confusion, and understanding its context can replace anxiety with purpose.Jenny Mire returns to discuss the mysteries of eschatology in this episode of The Revelations Podcast. Host Reagan Kramer welcomes back this beloved guest from The Rooted Truth, continuing their conversation from “Freedom from Fear: Understanding the End Times.” Jenny dives deeper into the Mark of the Beast, the fall of the Second Temple, and the transition from the Old to New Covenant. With historical insight and scriptural grounding, she challenges modern assumptions about Revelation, Daniel's 70th Week, and the Olivet Discourse—pointing to a Kingdom already at work. This episode is for anyone wrestling with fear of the end times. Fear not the end. Revelation is less about destruction and more about embracing God's plan. Walk away with a fresh perspective, free from speculation and feel empowered to embrace your role in the Kingdom of God today. Here are three reasons why you should listen to this episode:Uncover the historical truth behind the Mark of the Beast and its first-century fulfillment under Nero's Rome.Understand how the fall of the Second Temple marked the end of the Old Covenant, reshaping eschatology's meaning today.Gain freedom from end-times fear by embracing the Kingdom of God as a present, growing reality.Become Part of Our Mission!

And when we do that, I think things make more sense.”The Bible wasn't written to us directly, yet its living truth shines through when viewed through the lens of its original audience. Between Christ's death in 30 AD and the Second Temple's fall in 70 AD, a 40-year window unfolds, rich with meaning for understanding prophecy. This period marks a covenantal shift, urging listeners to rethink timelines and contexts often overlooked in modern teachings.[7:09] The Overlapping CovenantsJenny delves into the overlapping covenants during the 40 years between Christ's death and the fall of the Second Temple.Hebrews 8 reveals the New Covenant's superiority, with Jenny reading how the old system grew obsolete yet lingered until the temple's destruction. The temple stood as symbolism for  "heaven and earth," a concept rooted in Jewish thought and detailed by historian Josephus. Christ's blood at the Last Supper seals the New Covenant, coexisting with the fading old until 70 AD, when its end reshapes everything.[23:16] The Kingdom of God and the Early ChurchJesus' words in Mark 1:14 and Luke 17:20-21 declare the Kingdom of God as a present reality within us. [25:39] Jenny: “The kingdom of God is not coming with signs to be observed, nor will they say, look, here it is. There it is, for behold, the kingdom of God is in your midst.” Quoting Luke 17:20-21Parables like the mustard seed and leaven illustrate its gradual, unstoppable growth, a vision the early church embraced amid shifting covenants. Daniel's prophecy of a stone crushing empire aligns with this first-century arrival, as believers saw Christ's reign begin. Living in the "last days" of the Old Covenant, they focused on spreading the gospel, not awaiting a far-off end.[34:13] The Mark of the Beast and Historical ContextJenny explains the different views on the Mark of the Beast, including the spiritual mark and the literal mark.[36:03] Jenny: “He causes all those small and great, rich and poor, free and slave to receive a mark on their right hand and on their foreheads, and that no one may buy or sell except those who have the mark or the name of the beast or the number of his name.” Quoting Revelation 13:16-17Revelation 13's imagery of a mark on hand or forehead ties to first-century Rome.Nero's rule demanded allegiance for marketplace access—ashes marked those who bowed to Caesar. Persecution surged as Christians refused, facing exclusion or worse, a reality Josephus records with chilling detail. The number 666 (or 616 in some texts) links to Nero's name in ancient numerology, grounding this symbol in history, not future dread.[45:59] The Antichrist and the Abomination of DesolationConfusion swirls around the Antichrist, a term absent from Revelation but vivid in John's letters as a first-century Gnostic heresy denying Christ's flesh. History unfolds with the "abomination of desolation" in 70 AD, when Roman armies surrounded Jerusalem, fulfilling Jesus' warning in Matthew 24 and Luke 21. Christians fled as God provided an escape, leaving no record of their deaths amid the temple's ruin. This event, as explained in Daniel, dismantles futurist expectations of a third temple, rooting prophecy in the past.[57:25] The Mission of the Church and Spiritual Gifts[58:27] Reagan: “Lord, what do you want to teach me? You know, through this, and I find… when I don't go to all the resources I have, like, I get so excited because I think he is teaching me through the power of the Holy Spirit.”Jenny emphasizes the mission of the church to share the gospel and make disciples.Spiritual gifts ignite this calling, edifying the body of Christ to fill the earth, as Jenny envisions a mature church triggering Jesus' return. Humbling ourselves before the Holy Spirit unlocks this purpose, shifting focus from fear to action. Attacking the enemy's vulnerabilities, not just observing his moves, defines the church's offensive role in this Kingdom age.[1:08:01] Eschatology and Our CallingClarity replaces chaos when eschatology aligns with history. Again, Revelation is less about destruction and more about Christ's triumph. Freedom flows from shedding futuristic fears—no Antichrist looms, no temple awaits rebuilding—leaving us to live boldly now. Jenny's journey with The Rooted Truth (therootedtruth.com) offers tools like Bible studies on Revelation, Daniel. Let us embrace our identity as Kingdom ambassadors, rooted in peace and purpose for today.About JennyJenny Mire is a passionate Bible teacher, author, and co-founder of The Rooted Truth, where she equips believers to dig deep into Scripture and live out their faith with boldness.

Well, we finally made it: The Definitive Podcast (jodcast?) on medieval Jewish culture. After the destruction of the Second Temple, Jews were scattered across Europe, the Middle East and North Africa. Despite often-brutal repression, many Jews thrived, creating new communities, cultural expressions, and even languages. Despite marginalisation, Jewish women were also key to this evolution, enthusiastically contributing to spiritual and cultural life in dynamic ways. And even though they were a minority almost everywhere, some Jews rose to become major political leaders. Programming note: WMG will be going on hiatus until the end of Summer. But never fear!

The Soviet Union suppressed Judaism and Jewish identity for decades. Atheism was enforced by the state. But our guest today, Pinchas Shir, knew there was more to life than the material world. In the era of perestroika, he fled to the United States, and today, he's a Messianic Jewish rabbi. Join us as Rabbi Shir unpacks his academic work on Jewish literature, meals and food in antiquity, and the impact of texts like 1 Enoch, Letter of Aristeas, and Wisdom of Solomon on our understanding of the New Testament. Whether you're new to Second Temple studies or a seasoned scholar, this episode will give you a fresh perspective on the historical and spiritual context of early Judaism and Christianity. – Takeaways – The Suppressed Jewish Identity in the Soviet Union: Rabbi Shir shares firsthand accounts of how Jewish identity was hidden and discouraged under Soviet rule. Many Jews in Russia grew up without religious education or knowledge of their heritage due to the state's suppression of religion. A Spiritual Journey of Discovery: Growing up in an atheistic society, Rabbi Shir felt an inner pull towards spirituality. His first encounter with the Bible came from American missionaries, leading him on a long journey of faith that intertwined with his Jewish identity. The Unique Culture of Russian Jewish Communities Today: Whether in Israel, America, or Europe, Russian Jews tend to maintain a strong sense of community. Many still speak Russian, preserve distinct cultural habits, and have a unique approach to Judaism and Messianic faith. Interpreting the Bible in Its Historical Context: The importance of understanding Scripture through its original Jewish and historical setting cannot be overstated. Engaging with Second Temple literature helps modern readers grasp the cultural and theological ideas that shaped early Jewish and Christian beliefs. Rabbi Shir highlights how 1 Enoch, Letter of Aristeas, and other Jewish texts offer helpful context for understanding New Testament thought. – Chapters – (0:00) Episode Introduction (1:24) Growing up Jewish in the Communist Soviet Union (4:20) Encountering the Evangelical gospel (12:42) Journey to recover Jewish identity (15:40) Becoming a Bible teacher (17:14) Challenges of being a Rabbi (20:17) Russian Messianic Jewish Community (27:02) Doctoral Dissertation on Ancient Foods (31:57) Academic exploration of Second Temple literature (35:09) Diversity of thought in intertestamental Jewish writings (42:38) Influential streams of Judaism (45:34) Best books of Second Temple literature (51:21) Unheard voices of Hebrew kings and prophets – Resources – Pinchas Shir Online: https://pshir.com Unheard Voices of Hebrew Kings and Prophets, by Pinchas Shir https://www.amazon.com/Unheard-Voices-Hebrew-Prophets-Literature/dp/B0CKXK5DFH

(Google Books) The Dead Sea Scrolls are a set of ancient Jewish manuscripts from the Second Temple period. They were discovered over a period of 10 years, between 1946 and 1956, at the Qumran Caves near Ein Feshkha in the West Bank, on the northern shore of the Dead Sea. Dating from the 3rd century BCE to the 1st century CE, the Dead Sea Scrolls include the oldest surviving manuscripts of entire books later included in the biblical canons, including deuterocanonical manuscripts from late Second Temple Judaism and extrabiblical books. At the same time, they cast new light on the emergence of Christianity and of Rabbinic Judaism. (Wikipedia)

24 Minute Bible - A Simple Journey to Understand the Bible

Episode #189 For 400 years the Second Temple (the Temple of Jesus' timeframe) served Israel as the center of Worship. That was about to come to an end. The destruction of the Temple at the hands of the Roman General Titus in 70AD, would signal a change. It would be the end of the Jewish Temple Worship practices— but was the destruction (prophesied by Jesus) a SIGN to Jew and Gentile alike, of a ‘new covenant' and a new and living way. The book of Hebrews was written to confirm that, Yes, Jesus has fulfilled the Old Testament promises. All the promises of God find their ‘yes' in Him!

The Apocalypse of Ezra, a Jewish apocalyptic text from the late 1st century CE, grapples with themes of divine justice and the suffering of the righteous after the destruction of the Second Temple.  The Syriac version, a particularly valuable source, offers unique insights into its transmission and interpretation within early Christian communities of the Near East.  This version's theological nuances, particularly regarding eschatology, are highlighted through its comparison with other textual traditions (Latin, Ethiopic, Armenian). The text's seven visions explore these themes, portraying the end times, a new creation, and the eventual triumph of the righteous.  Its influence on both Jewish and early Christian thought is significant, providing solace and theological frameworks for understanding suffering and hope for the future. for more online courses check our website: www.twinsbiblicalacademy.com

The Judeo-Christian faith has long been formed by books and reading. From synagogue scrolls to circulating letters, believers have been nurtured, disciplined, and matured through ongoing conversations in the form of written words. We are people of The Book, and alongside it is an ever-growing shelf of more books. I am a reader, in large part, because I am a believer. From the literature of the Second Temple period to the writings of Lewis, Chesterton, and Peterson, books have had an incalculable influence on my life and faith. Our house shows it. We converted our formal dining room into a reading room lined with bookcases. There's a built-in bookcase in our entryway filled with books. My home study is lined with books. And much to my wife's annoyance, there's usually a pile beneath my side of the bed. I'm not even counting the two-credit-a-month audible subscription I've kept for nearly a decade. We have a rule in my house—if my kids will read it—I'll buy it. There's no book budget. It's always a yes to more books. (Thankfully our pace of reading has kept the budget in check.) For all the books we've purchased, my largest investment is not on my physical shelves. Since seminary, my largest book purchases have taken place through Logos Bible Software. Logos Bible Software for Families and Pastors My first copy of Logos came on a pack of CDs, and I just pulled up my order history to confirm that my first book purchased on Logos was in March 2010. I've been using Logos for almost 15 years, and I use it almost every day. Over the years, I have developed a strategy for book buying. If I want to read a book straight through, usually in our reading room or lying in bed, I usually purchase a physical copy. If I may need to reference the book in the future, I buy it in Logos. My Logos library currently contains more than 2,700 books. The key to understanding the value of Logos is recognizing it's two things: a tool and a library. Of course, there is the benefit of having access to this library anywhere I take my phone or laptop, but these days, most books can easily be purchased in a digital format. The real value is that Logos offers a suite of tools to help you organize your study of the Bible and your growing Biblical library. It's the tools and the books that make it powerful. For pastors, I'll go so far as to say that I think Logos is indispensable. In its early days, Logos seemed mostly designed for clergy and academics. But over the last decade, Logos has made impressive strides to make its software a tool for pastors and any individual or family serious about the Bible. Recently, I'm not the only one using Logos. Each year, my son's school hosts a history day. Each child is assigned a famous person from the past. My son was assigned the Apostle Peter (it's a classical Christian school). One of the first things we did was open Logos' factbook and search for facts about Peter. I was excited to give him not only an answer to his question but also to show him how anyone can study and learn more about scripture. I think every believer and family needs to think about the resources they turn to and the value of the tools needed for serious study. Learn more about your ad choices.

But, as Dr. Simkovich reminds us, that situation existed well over 2,000 years ago, when some Jews returned to the Land of Israel following the Babylonian exile while others remained abroad. In this episode we discuss:What are the differences between the notions of golah, diaspora, and galut?Did ancient diaspora Jews have a political equivalent to “supporting Israel”? How should Jews live when in a partial state of exile?Tune in to hear a conversation about the “proto-messianic mindset” throughout Jewish history and today. Interview begins at 8:58.Dr. Malka Simkovich is the director and editor-in-chief of the Jewish Publication Society and previously served as the Crown-Ryan Chair of Jewish Studies and Director of the Catholic-Jewish Studies program at Catholic Theological Union in Chicago. She earned a doctoral degree in Second Temple and Rabbinic Judaism from Brandeis University and a Master's degree in Hebrew Bible from Harvard University. She is the author of The Making of Jewish Universalism: From Exile to Alexandria (2016), Discovering Second Temple Literature: The Scriptures and Stories That Shaped Early Judaism (2018), and Letters From Home: The Creation of Diaspora in Jewish Antiquity, (2024).

Our generation is at a cultural crossroads, and our future will be determined by what we decide to do. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses passages in the Gospel of Luke where we find Jesus at the Temple, as well as some important points of Second Temple history. Some of the most notable events in Jesus' ministry took place at the Temple, and He had a crucial message for His generation. Pastor Allen shows how that message applies to our generation as he offers a biblical perspective on our current cultural climate and the choice we face. Will we choose humility and repentance, or pride and indifference? The first option leads to God's mercy, while the other will bring His judgment.   To support this ministry and help us continue to reach people all around the world, visit this link: allenjackson.com/podcastdonate
