The Holy Of Holies

In the Jewish tradition, reading of the Torah follows a calendar cycle, with a specific portion assigned each week. Following on this ancient tradition, Torah Queeries brings together some of the world's leading rabbis, scholars, and writers to interpret the Torah through a "bent lens." This incredibly rich collection unites the voices of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and straight-allied writers, including some of the most central figures in contemporary American Judaism. All bring to the table unique methods of reading and interpreting that allow the Torah to speak to modern concerns of sexuality, identity, gender, and LGBT life. Torah Queeries offers cultural critique, social commentary, and a vision of community transformation, all done through biblical interpretation. Written to engage readers, draw them in, and at times provoke them, Torah Queeries charts a future of inclusion and social justice deeply rooted in the Jewish textual tradition. A labor of intellectual rigor, social justice, and personal passions, Torah Queeries is an exciting and important contribution to the project of democratizing Jewish communities, and an essential guide to understanding the intersection of queerness and Jewishness.

In books, on the Internet, and through his own publication, an outspoken former adventist minister is attacking our church, especially the 1844 Investigative Judgment. These shots take aim at the heart of Adventism, extending to Ellen White, who is being called a "false prophet" because she supported the sanctuary doctrine. How can we respond? Can 1844 and the investigative judgment be supported biblically? Is this teaching contrary to the gospel, as this ex-Adventist minister claims, or are these challenges misguided efforts to blemish one of the most important revelations of God's character?In Graffiti in the Holy of Holies, author and church apologist, Clifford Goldstein, examines the arguments against Ellen White and the pre-Advent judgment, and responds, point-by-point. The result is a thoughtful and clear defense that goes beyond his earlier 1844 Made Simple in revealing the Bible-based, and gospel-uplifting truth about the sanctuary. At the same time Goldstein confronts and sweeps away myths concerning Ellen White, and affirms her prophetic gift. Vandals are attempting to spoil your faith. The time to know the difference between the Word of God and the graffiti of man is now. This book will make that difference crystal clear. - 1. Three-Legged Stools.2. Sliver in the Foot.3.

Historically, the book of Exodus treats of the deliverance of Israel from Egypt; but viewed doctrinally, it deals with redemption. Just as the first book of the Bible teaches that God elects unto salvation, so the second instructs us how God saves, namely, by redemption. Redemption, then, is the dominant subject of Exodus. Following this, we are shown what we are redeemed for-worship, and this characterizes Leviticus, where we learn of the holy requirements of God and the gracious provisions He has made to meet these. In Numbers we have the walk and warfare of the wilderness, where we have a typical representation of our experiences as we pass through this scene of sin and trial-our repeated and excuseless failures, and God's long-sufferance and faithfulness.
