Messiah's Alphabet: Places Have Meaning: An Exploration of the Meanings of the Names of Places Mentioned in the Old and New Testaments, Paperback/James T. Cummins

Descriere

Description Messiah's Alphabet: Places Have Meaning is an exploration into the actual Hebrew meanings of some of the names of places mentioned in the Bible. Surprising discoveries will unfold as you connect the true meaning of each Hebrew name with its prophetic significance and fulfillment in scripture. The hidden Hebrew meanings underlying the names of New Testament places are also brought to light. Explorations and exercises are provided along with answer keys located within the text. Audio files of every lesson are available separately. The book's approach and vocabulary are friendly to both Jewish and Gentile readers, so the text lends itself well to Bible study groups in either Messianic congregations or churches. Suitable for self study, too. Prerequisites: A basic working knowledge of the Hebrew alphabet is very helpful but not absolutely necessary; transliterations (pronunciations) of all Hebrew, Greek and Latin names are provided throughout the text. (A separate workbook in the series, Messiah's Alphabet Book 1, is available for those who would like to learn the Hebrew alphabet. It provides a gentle introduction to the Hebrew letters, teaching how to read, write and pronounce them.)About the Author Jim Cummins has served as teacher, pastor, evangelist and ministry planter in a variety of denominational and non-denominational settings for more than 40 years.
