Can you imagine what it was live to be moving through the desert with about 1,000,000 unorganized people? Or were they? Think of blowing sand; scarcity of water; few if any shade trees; people, anima…

Perhaps Carlos, it would be a good idea to check out the difference between the two and then look at the geography of the area where Israel was then determine whether or not it does make a difference.

Hello Pastor Melbourne, Each Wednesday night at my church we meet to discuss the Sabbath School lesson for the week. I am the SS Superintendent and if possible I would like to have a conversation with you regarding this quarter's lesson. EXCELLENT…

God gave this command to Israel to ensure that she would not follow the practices of the people of the land in which they were entering. These people actually cooked a kid in its mother's milk and used the resultant pottage (soup) to sprinkle on the…

Dear Barrington: As bad as the treatment of women might seem to be to us moderners, the treatment in Israel was at time far better than among her neighbors. This is not to justify what took place but to set the facts out there. It appears to me that…

Dr. Betram, it look as though the dialogue is taking off with excitement. Let's continue to keep it stimulating. It's it painful to see how women were treated so badly in the Old Testament? Women were not more valuable that the vineyard on the outsi…

Hi Claire: While there seems to be no specific reference in the lesson or the passage regarding the sanction for a husband suspected of adultery, Leviticus 20:10 does give a drastic sanction to the man caught in adultery. He should be put to death.…

Dr. Melbourne, in reference to the lesson for October 10, is there any mention of what happened to the husband if he was suspected of adultery? It seems unfair that the woman was made to "drink" this water and the man with whom the adultery was comm…

After reviewing the Sabbath School lesson this week, the test for a wife suspicious of committing adultery was drinking water and dust from the sanctuary floor, why isn't this practiced in the church today?

Let's follow the Children of Israel as they go on the move. As they went on the move in Canaan, God told them through Moses in Edodus 23:19b "You shall not cook a kid in its mother's milk." How relevant is this command for us today when many of us d…

The Children of Israel traveled through the hot, sandy, scorching heat of the Judean desert with its lack of shade trees, scarcity of water and mirages. I have had the experience of putting my bare feet on the hot sands of the Dead Sea. Indeed, this…

Thanks Dr. Melbourne for being our theological facilitator for this quarter. I know you will provide valuable spiritual insights and will stimulate our thoughts and create spiritual growth among us. Feel free to think outside the box. Provoke our mi…
