Those Shameful Thoughts and What They Really Say about You
Amen
Bless you Rabbi. I'm 80, retired but active minister. I learned about the strong link between the Jewish people and Iran (Persia) not in seminary, but in Sunday School as a 12 year old. In my time as an expositor and teacher of the Bible in congregations I have served I found many who lack basic knowledge of the Bible and the history of Israel and Judah, exiles and return and the roles that Darius and Cyrus the Great (God's anointed) played. That study was a requirement for my Master's degree. Our Professor of Biblical Studies (TANAKH) earned his Ph.D. at St. Andrews in Scotland. He also taught an elective course in classical biblical Hebrew. Only three of us finished. I will keep reminding our people that the roots of our faith are planted deep in that history of the Jewish people.
