For Leslie - Trent's Curriculum for This Year

So Leslie wanted to know what other materials Trent would be using for his year of study.  I've finally received it all, so here it is.. with the exception of his math, it's up in his room.

My scheduling will have to wait, as there's the potential that he might spend a month apprenticing with our Farrier. That's alright, it's all education, just not sit down education.

So this is Trent's shelf.


And this is the details of what's on his shelf

 From Booklist
This is not a definitive history of the Diaspora, Levine explains in his introduction, but a selection of 12 key periods and places, beginning with the expulsion of the Jews from Spain in 1492. The book's first four chapters trace the circumstances of the expulsion and follow the journey of the Sephardic Jews to other countries. Other chapters depict such periods of history as the upheaval against German Jews in 1848, Russian Jews in the Pale of Settlement in 1881, the Dreyfus Affair in France in the 1890s, the mass immigration to America in the early twentieth century, and the immigration of Soviet Jews to Israel after the Six Day War in 1967. With 36 black-and-white illustrations, this book, richly documented and thoroughly researched, is what Levine describes as a "chronicle of perseverance in the face of overwhelming odds and an uncanny ability to do what is necessary so that each successive generation will endure."

God's Lamp, Man's Light is a masterful analysis of the menorah, the only biblical symbol that has the distinction of being designed by God himself.

The only comprehensive study of the menorah in existence, this book is filled with valuable information about the history, design, and function of the menorah in both the Israelite sanctuary and in the earliest church.

Dr. Garr also analyzes biblical themes connected with the menorah, including light, fire, the tree of life. He discusses thoroughly the menorah’s messianic imagery. He also evaluates individual men and women, Israel, and the church as God’s living menorah, fulfilling the commission of being the light of the world.

You will simply be amazed at the wealth of insight that has been hidden from the historical church because of its separation from Judaism and things Jewish. You will be challenged to embark on a more complete study of the Jewish roots of your Christian faith when you consider this enriching and inspirational teaching on the menorah, God’s lamp, man’s light. If you’re restoring the Jewish roots of your faith, God's Lamp, Man's Light is essential to your quest.

   

A Chasidic discourse from one of the pioneers of Messianic Judaism, crammed with stimulating thought and pervaded by real spiritual beauty, Love and the Messianic Age is a mint of good things and solid learning.

Love in the Messianic Age is adorned in a magnificent, sturdy gold-embossed hard cover, and it would make a handsome and classic addition to any library. Its 87 pages contain a biography of the author and an introduction by D. Thomas Lancaster, as well as numerous footnotes.

This is an important book for Messianic Judaism and Christianity both. It opens a field of inquiry and reflection which encourages us to internalize the spiritual truths of theology and of our faith in Messiah and causes us to consider our relationship with God, our motivations for serving him, and how our interactions with God and Torah can be expressed in hearts of joy, acts of love, fervent prayer, and sincere repentance. Most importantly, Levertoff’s work demonstrates just how mysterious and wonderful the Gospel message actually is.

Paul Philip Levertoff, a Jewish believer from a Chasidic family with a classical, Yeshivah education, summarizes the complex, esoteric teachings of Chasidic Judaism for the purpose of comparison and contrast with apostolic theology. Levertoff reveals a mystical thrust behind the Gospel and unfurls the Messianic concept of love—love for God and love of fellow—bound up with the experience of knowing God and fearing God, relationship to His Torah, and a life characterized by joy, prayer, and repentance. This is a book about experiencing God and attaining the revelation of the Messianic Era in the here and now.

 

In His Own Words will take you on a fascinating journey through territory that has, until now, remained unexplored by Christian theologians. The book reveals amazing details about God's Word that have never been translated into our English editions.

You will learn why some letters in the original Hebrew Bible are printed over- or under-size, as well as why other letters are printed upside down, broken in half, or suspended in mid-air. You will discover why nearly every column of a Torah scroll begins with a letter that symbolizes a hook, and why some passages of scripture are printed in such a way as to depict a brick wall. This book will also demonstrate how the message of the gospel is graphically illustrated by the names, shapes, and order of the letters of the Hebrew alphabet. You are sure to be inspired and encouraged by the amazing truths that God has hidden in these ancient symbols. Written in layman's terms, In His Own Words will introduce you to a dimension of God's Word that will powerfully impact your life and ministry.

 
Turn a book into a bible study resource with the new companion In HIs Own Words - Student Guide. The Student Guide along with the Teachers Resource Guide can aid an individual's study or to help facilitate a small group study. In this companion resource you will learn how to refine the concepts that Mr. Luton introduces. Our ability to grasp these concepts will increase as we ponder the ancient lessons God would teach us through His biblical alphabet.

Why Hebrew Word Pictures are important to believers?
"Every so often, something comes along that can help move your spiritual life into high gear. I'm convinced that Frank Seekins' concept of "Hebrew Word Pictures" is such a concept. With so many books and conference about biblical principles, this one can help you better understand and love God's Word itself.
As someone who's studied "word pictures" for years, seeing them come alive in the very letters of Scripture is like adding color to a classic movie. I highly recommend it for anyone interested in gaining a deeper love and understanding of the Scriptures.
John Trent, ph.D Author, Speaker President of Encouraging Words
   Does this need a description?


The most accurate and complete Strong's ever published, the only Strong's compiled and verified by computer technology, the only truly exhaustive concordance to the KJV, and includes the most up-to-date Hebrew and Greek dictionaries for precise word studies.
   In the first century of the Common Era, tens of thousands of Jewish people followed Yeshua (Jesus), believing him to be the promised Messiah of Israel. They didn't renounce their heritage, their customs, nor their people. They remained Jews.
Two thousand years later, hundreds of thousands of Jewish people follow Yeshua, also believing that he was the Messia. They, too , have not renounced their heritage, customs nor their people.

Messianic Judaism is the modern movement that is bringing it all together, for Jews and non-Jews. This book answers the following questions and more:
  • What happened in the past 2000 years?
  • Is Messianic Judaism a prophetic movement?
  • What do Messianic Jews believer?
  • Did the Torah, the Five Books of Moses, become null and void?
  • What are the challenges for the future of this Movement?
In easy to read style, Dr. David H Stern, translator of the Jewish New Testament and Complete Jewish Bible, author of books and articles, teacher and tinker, gives us a comprehensive look at this vital movement.
Whether you are a Messianic Jew, yourself, a Christian with curiosity about the Jewish roots of the Faith, or, a Jewish person wanting to understand more, Messianic Judaism.. puts it all in perspective for you.
   Did Yeshua observe the Law? Did Paul teach his congregations to abandon the Torah? Was the devout Jew, Peter, persuaded that the Commandments were cancelled?

The answers you’ll find in They Loved the Torah may surprise you! Even though many Jews believe that Paul taught against the Law, this book disproves that notion. Most Christians are disconnected from the Torah; reading this book will reconnect them.

Dr. Friedman makes an excellent case for his premise that ALL the first followers of Messiah were not only Torah-observant, but they desired to spread their love for God’s entire Word to the Gentiles to whom they preached.

   Too many Gentile believers think of Christianity as a replacement for Judaism - and Israel as something apart from God's plan. 
Don FInto's Your People Shall Be My People reveals God's purposes for His covenant people in these times - and how this revelation is impacting the Church.
Unlike Ruth in the old Testament, many of us ahve turned our backs on the relatives of the Messiah, and we share the collective guilt for centuries of their persecution. Finto reminds us that confessing these sins is only a beginning. More than ever,we must embrace and intercede for the chosen people of God, aligning our prayers with God's plan.
With Israel and her people once again center stage at a crucial moment in th world history, our prayers for them are vital. Will we make the same covenant pledge to Israel that Ruth made to Naomi? If so, our Church will never be the same.
   From the first "Christian" persecutions of the Jews in the fourth century to the horrors of the Holocaust, from Israel-bashing in today's press to anti-Semitism in today's pulpits, this shocking and painful book tells the tragic story that every Christian must hear.
   A Hebrew Bible  - both Old and New Testaments in Hebrew - from Trintarian Bible Society, Tyndale House, Dorset Road , London, SW193NN, England
   We've done the bulk of this map study at our congregation, but Trent will be able to continue to use these maps to help him navigate the Promised Land as he does the other studies. He may finish this study..... we may finish it as a family around the dining room table in the evenings.



Hope this inspires some of you to do some further studies, or to add to your own children's studies.

Aug. 17, 2009 - Trent's Curriculum

Posted by Anonymous
WOW!!! Thank you for taking the time to post this!! This is wonderful!! I feel like I need to pull my daughters back (one is in college for graphics, and the other is in her last year) and teach them some more!! All moms who read this blog, please take note from a mom whose children are older....time goes so fast. Please fill them with the knowledge they will need to live out (wisdom) God's word, so when they get older, they will have understanding (I highly recommend Robin Sampson's, Marilyn Howshall, Barb Shelton's educational philosophy). Everything else is fluff! Well almost; they do need to learn a trade/career (whatever their bent is), esp the boys (like Trent's farrier class). The two scriptures I hold close to me are: Deut 6:4-7, and Matt 6:33,34. Seek His kingdom first, and then you will have everything else you will need. Many blessings on your day! Shalom, Leslie
