In an exciting new digital download section of our online store, we are offering some of our most popular drawings and illustrations, with Bible references, suitable for powerpoint presentations. This is in response to the many requests we receive for illustrations of particular themes that you need for that class or lecture tomorrow, when there is no time to wait for material to arrive in the mail.
We have grouped some of those illustrations we think may be most helpful into sets of three or four images each. Later on we may make larger groups. To date, we have prepared the following:
The Exodus
The Tabernacle Tent
The Tabernacle Court
Solomon’s Temple Model
Solomon’s Temple Drawings
However, these are only a tiny fraction of the illustrations we have available. We need your feedback on which you would find most useful so we can go on helping you to prepare those authoritative and unforgettable powerpoint presentations.
Most images are sized at 1024×768 - suitable for powerpoint presentations.
Note - there appears to be a bug in the online store software. If you can’t find the link to Checkout once you’ve filled your shopping cart, just click the link to the blog (top left) and the “Go to Checkout” link will reappear!
Although I don’t like the title of this website (God doesn’t need a tube), it has an interesting video discussion between J R Church and Gary Stealman about my book The Quest. They didn’t get all the facts right, but they gave an enthusiastic review of my book The Quest. Worth watching.
If you are not a member of www.godtube.com, go to the website and select ‘videos’ from the menubar. Copy in this code: 20ed975e82b7fd877693 and the video should be ready for watching.
From November 21st till the 23rd, 2008, the Biblical Archaeology Society will be holding its 11th annual Bible Fest in Boston, MA. They have published a tentative program on their website and there is also a registration form for those who would like to attend.
There will be some 20 scholars speaking on a range of different topics. My topic will be “Reading Josephus: What His Record of the Sequence of the Destruction of Jerusalem Tells Us about the Layout of the Temple Mount”.
Perhaps I will see you there.
Some posts are pure pleasure to put up. This is one of them! Our resident computer expert (son Nat, who is also an experienced digger!), has given our website a facelift for the new academic year. Over a memorable few weekends, he has managed to combine all the sections of our website, made it easier to subscribe to RSS and also easier to find our products. To celebrate this event, we are offering massive discounts on many items. Take a few minutes to check these out before the academic year gets underway.
Arutz-7 has this interesting report on a guide to the Temple Mount, published by the Supreme Moslim Council in 1925. On page 4, it states this about the historical importance of the Temple Mount: “Its identity with the site of Solomon’s Temple is beyond dispute. This, too, is the spot, according to universal belief, on which “David built there an altar unto the Lord, and offered burnt offerings and peace offerings”. (2 Sam. 24.25).
A facsimile of the 16-page booklet can be downloaded from the Temple Institute website.
So, all the recent Palestinian hype about the Temple Denial (meaning that there never stood a Jewish Temple on the Temple Mount) holds no water, but is political posturing only.
As long as Muslims and rabbis (see previous post) ignore archaeological evidence, there will be no end to political and religious arguments.
