God created the Heaven and the Earth in 7 days. On the first day, God created lights and separated it from darkness. On the second day, he made sky and the sea. The third day he made land. On the fourth day he made the sun, moon, and stars in the sky. The fifth day was the day he made birds and fish, while he made animals and humans in the sixth day. The seventh day was a day of rest, called the sabbath.

He asked Adam to name all of the animals one by one. Then God took one of Adam’s ribs to create a companion for him, Eve. In the garden were 2 trees, the tree of life and the tree of knowledge of good and evil. A snake deceived Eve into eating from the tree of knowledge, and Eve also made Adam do it. God then saw that they ate from the tree because since then they were naked, which was a sign of innocence, but now they weren’t. God banished the, from the garden and left them to roam the Earth and fend for themselves.]]> 2020-12-14 19:57:13 UTC https://padlet.com/24316op/nhyj91i9ote3w3p4/wish/1017685776 24319ap https://padlet.com/24316op/nhyj91i9ote3w3p4/wish/1018276440 Adam and Eve had children who were Cain and Able. Cain was older than Able, and because of this God gave his major blessing to Able while Cain got his minor blessing. This is because God favors the young  over the old. Cain got jealous and angry at Able because he got the major blessing instead of him. Cain took Able into the forest and jumped him. Able soon died to Cain and when God found out he cursed Cain to be a forever wanderer. To prevent people killing Cain, God also gave him a blessing that if he was killed he would get revenge. Adam and Eve soon had a son named Seth.]]> 2020-12-14 23:49:29 UTC https://padlet.com/24316op/nhyj91i9ote3w3p4/wish/1018276440 24319ap https://padlet.com/24316op/nhyj91i9ote3w3p4/wish/1018366238 While traveling through Egypt trying to find the Promised Land, they were captured and enslaved by King Ramses II.

The basket was picked up by Ramses II daughter and she acted as her mother figure. Unknowingly to the daughter and the king, the mother of Moses took the job as a caretaker for the king’s family to look after her child. When Moses grew older he noticed the horrors that the king put on his people, he even killed a guard out of frustration. He ran from Egypt out of fear of getting caught.]]> 2020-12-15 00:53:00 UTC https://padlet.com/24316op/nhyj91i9ote3w3p4/wish/1018402950 24319ap https://padlet.com/24316op/nhyj91i9ote3w3p4/wish/1020887772 While Moses was staying in Midian, he saw a burning bush in the distance. The burning bush was a theophany, or a physical representation of God. As he got to the burning bush, God told him to take his sandals off since it was holy ground. Moses obliged to God and started conversing with him. God instructed Moses to free his people and gave him a special staff as equipment. Moses said he couldn’t because of his speech impediment, but God enlisted Aaron to speak for him. After Ramses II declined, he made the work harder for the Chosen People. Then God sent 10 plagues, the final plague was one that killed everyone's firstborn sons unless they had a sign of lamb’s blood over their doorway, creating Passover. After the plagues Moses took the people and ran, they got to the Red Sea/Sea of Reeds and were being surrounded. Moses used his staff to split the river and lead the Chosen People through it.]]> 2020-12-15 17:07:23 UTC https://padlet.com/24316op/nhyj91i9ote3w3p4/wish/1020887772 24319ap https://padlet.com/24316op/nhyj91i9ote3w3p4/wish/1020917242 Being led by Moses, the chosen people grew bored and thirsty. The wouldn’t stop complaining about how they had no water. Moses asked God for help and God said to strike the rock once with his staff and water would come out of it. Moses stroked the rock but water didn’t come out, so he stroked it a second time which could be considered as defying God due to impatience. The second time water came out and the Chosen People drank. But there was another problem, they felt like God wasn’t with them and wanted to see him firsthand, so they started complaining again.]]> 2020-12-15 17:13:07 UTC https://padlet.com/24316op/nhyj91i9ote3w3p4/wish/1020917242 24319ap https://padlet.com/24316op/nhyj91i9ote3w3p4/wish/1020999933 Moses went up the mountain to speak with God, and God told him to give the Chosen People guidelines from God to follow by. God mad the commandments and gave them to Moses. Moses went down  to give them the commandments when he saw the Chosen People worshiping a golden calf, this offended Moses and God because the Chosen People have fallen into idolatry, which means instead of worshiping God they are worshiping a false god. It turned out the Chosen People asked Aaron to make them a god and he agreed. God was furious and rained down snakes to hurt them, Moses being a man of faith told God not to do that and calmed him down. God gave Moses a bronze snake that saved the chosen people when they looked upon it, which is a representation of Jesus on the cross who saved everyone.]]> 2020-12-15 17:27:40 UTC https://padlet.com/24316op/nhyj91i9ote3w3p4/wish/1020999933 24319ap https://padlet.com/24316op/nhyj91i9ote3w3p4/wish/1021047538 Abraham was a shepherd, who had a lot of faith. He ended up being captured and forced to work by the Egyptians. However, due to his faith God let him be able to interoperable dreams of people. The pharaoh saw this and asked for him to interpret his as well as others. This made Abraham move up the ranks of the Egyptians until he was at a very high position.

Manoah(Danite/Tribe of Dan) From Zorah has a barren wife. An Angel tells them “though you are barren and have no children, you will conceive and bear a son” just like many other OT women; micraculous conception at birth. Her sons name is Samson, which is Hebrew for man of the sun. Samson takes the Nazirite Vow (No strong drinks or wine, no razor shall cut his hair, source of great strength (physical and spiritual) Samson’s birth parallels the announcement and birth of John the Baptist. With Samson’s great strength he is a great counter to the Philistines (he slew 1000 philistines with the jawbone of a donkey) ]]> 2020-12-15 23:28:53 UTC https://padlet.com/24316op/nhyj91i9ote3w3p4/wish/1022262132 24316op https://padlet.com/24316op/nhyj91i9ote3w3p4/wish/1022282703 Delilah was a Philistine woman who is used to trick Samson into revealing the secret source of his strength.

On the 4th time he tells her, (never victim his hair) they cut his hair and he is weakened, they gouge out his eyes, mock him and send him to Gaza.

aShe has been barren for a long time, she become pregnant, like many other OT Women (Sarah, Mrs. Manoah, etc.)  Like the births of Isaac, Jacob, Samson, John the Baptist, the birth of 
Samuel is an act of God and a Gift from God.   The Song of Hannah Recounts the greatness of God, his good deeds, How God reverses things (raised up lowly, lowers the great, etc.)  Parallels Mary’s Magnificat (Song of Mary) in the New Testament.
As an act of gratitude, Hannah gives Samuel back to the Lord, to serve the Lord, by working for Eli caring for the Ark at the Shiloh. This shows the Concept of giving back to God (especially when we have received so much)  Eli  = the priest in charge at the Sanctuary at Shiloh 
He is a very weak character because of Corruption by his two sons but he does nothing about it; Hophni and Phinehas they Stole the offering, Forced women to have sex with them.

Th Phone analogy is “God calling but no answers or busy signal”
3 times Samuel hears someone call “Samuel, Samuel”  He Runs to Eli, responds “Here I am. You called me.” On the third time, Eli realized it was the Lord. Samuel’s response is “Speak, Lord, your servant is listening.” Hears and obeys, Attitude of “service” Samuel is told of the disaster and punishment for Eli’s wicked sons. “Samuel grew up, and the Lord was with him, not permitting any word of his to go unfulfilled Thus all Israel from Dan to Beer-sheba came to know that  Samuel was a trustworthy prophet of the Lord.”  A prophet is a messenger of God who relays the will of God to his people and the prayers of the people to God.

They send for the Ark from Shiloh. Ark is brought by the two sons of Eli (Hophni and Phinehas).  At first the Philistines are Fearful. Ark = God, they know what the CP “God” has done to other nations. They would Rather die fighting than become slaves. 30,000 Israelites die, plus the two sons of Eli. The Ark is captured. A Benjaminite runs back to tell Eli; he falls back, breaks his neck and dies. This shows us that. No Religious symbol must be thought of as a mascot, good luck charm, guarantor or security and victory.The Ark was lost both physically and spiritually. The Ark does not remain with the Philistines; it goes from one city to 
another; bringing about plagues, disasters, etc.They eventually send it back to Israel with golden ornament gifts of expiation

Saul is wounded and dying. He tells his armor bearer to kill him rather then die at the hand of a philistine; his armor bearer refuses. Saul falls on his own sword (suicide) the armor bearer does the same. The philistines find Saul dead, cut off his head and mock his body.

Soloman = king (political and military representative) “Let Zadok the priest and Nathan the prophet there anoint him king over Israel;  and say ‘Long live the King’”  “he shall sit upon my throne and he will be ruler over Israel and Judah.” Soloman didn’t have to prove himself to become king but everyone else had; Saul  – had to prove himself in the battle of Jabesh-Gilead   David – had to make a deal/covenant   Solomon – David resigns and puts his successor in place while he is still alive

“Since this has been your mind and you have not kept my covenant and my  statutes which I have commanded you, I will surely tear the kingdom from  you and will give it to your servant.  Yet for the sake of David your father, I  will not do it in your days, but I will tear it out of the hand of your son.” God keeps his promise to David, Solomon will go to his grave knowing he failed as a king (not a 
peaceful transition of power and kingship to his heir). Solomon had heavily taxed the people to pay for his temple and the 
ones for his wives.
