The Call Of Moses
[ send me this paper ]
This 6 page paper discusses and explains the Call of Moses found in Exodus. Moses is introduced in a very concise and dramatic way and while there are years missing, we can say that Moses' life was divided into three 'forties': the first forty he spent as a prince in Pharaoh’s court, the second a shepherd in Midian, the third a king in Jeshurun. Moses was frightened when he saw the burning bush and heard his name called and he tried to avoid following the call of God by explaining how unqualified he was. The writer discusses the call from God and explains the disappointment and fear of Moses even later in his journey. The writer also discusses the fact that God, when He calls someone to complete a mission, has already prepared that person and this is true for Christians today as it was for Moses. Bibliography lists 10 sources.

The Golden Age Of Spain: Jewish History
[ send me this paper ]
7 pages in length. Major changes occurred in the 11th century when the Umayyads steadily lost power as the Berbers rose in influence after capturing Cordoba in 1013 CE; the passing decades served as their barometer of progressing power. Cultural and commercial prominence became their focus as capitals and other cities were transformed into Meccas for the two very important elements. As these significant changes were taking place, one more addition would serve to establish an entire population as being both welcomed and honored: the Jews. Indeed, these individuals did not come empty-handed into their newfound environment; rather, they brought with them such important endowments as financial aptitude, politics, economic advisory, as well as a vast amount of humanities-related knowledge in the form of literature, academia and science. The blending of art, linguistics, philosophy, science and medicine rounded out a society that was heretofore underdeveloped in many of these areas. As such, the influence of so many learned Jews soon saw intellectuals and doctors alike holding some of the most important social/legal/political positions in the land. No bibliography.

The Haftorah Portion Of The Book Of Nehemiah, Chapter 8: Interpretive Analysis
[ send me this paper ]
3 pages in length. If history did not repeat itself, we would not be equipped - as human beings or as a religion - to deal with the occurrences trying once again to unravel the thread of faith. Revisiting the Haftorah from Nehemiah Chapter 8 on this holiest of days, we are reminded that from suffering comes strength and from strength comes rebirth. There is perhaps no greater alliance of people who have experienced this lesson time and time again than the Jews, which we have both embraced and anguished over at the same time as we rise to the challenge of continuing forward as a cultural faction. Bibliography lists 1 source.
