Holiday Review: Tabernacles and Jesus' Birthday

2/20/2020

0 Comments

 

In today's teaching we look at two separate but related items: the Feast of Tabernacles and Jesus' birthday. 

The Feast of Tabernacles is the final of the seven festivals. It occurs in the fall - generally the end of September to beginning of October on our western calendar.  It is an eight day long festival with the final day being the "greatest" day of the feast - called the Hoshana Rabbah - which translates "the Great Hosanna." 

Hosanna is the transliteration of two Hebrew words, Hosha and Na. Hosha = Save. Na = Now

    Teacher

    Scott Broberg - I have a Masters of Divinity (MDiv) from Bethel Seminary - San Diego. 

    The focus of my studies was twofold:

    First, Biblical Studies with an emphasis on the Old Testament (different from theological studies - here is a great article explaining). I love the culture, language, and history that culminates in each biblical story. 

    The foundation of Jesus' world is the Hebrew Bible. Everything he teaches and does is connected to the only "text" of his day.  Jesus did not have a New Testament. Neither did the disciples.  The more you understand the Hebrew Bible, the more you will appreciate the New Testament.  

    ​The second is Spiritual Growth or Spiritual Formation. What does it mean to be a human within God's creation, and how do we grow and change to be more like what God intended us to be? 

    The spiritual journey is a journey of a lifetime. It is the most challenging and rewarding thing you can do. It takes tremendous courage to face ourselves and our limitations in an effort to grow. It is THE Critical Journey.
