Wandering Sinai: Recent Episodes

Alethea

When I was fully Pagan, I thought I had the theological side of things figured out.  But those questions I had put to rest came crashing around me when I was forced by an Angel of the Lord to acknowledge I wasn’t done looking. This revelation given to me made it difficult to trust any being that man may call a “god”. But more than that…I grew to be ever critical of what I heard from Christians around me. “What is the right answer?

I’ve searched everywhere for answers…and now it just feels like I’m wandering in a desert trying to find what God wants me to understand…

1 Maccabees is an account of the Maccabean revolt against the Seleucid Empire.  Although it recounts the events that led to Hanukkah, this book didn't make it into traditional Jewish canon.  We are told that Christ attended a Hanukkah celebration (referred to in the Bible as "The Feast of Dedication"), but does that mean that this story should be included in Christian Canon?  In this episode, our woman wandering Sinai finishes the book and delivers her judgement against the Levites in Maccabees, and God's role (or rather, lack thereof) in it all.

Wisdom of Solomon is a book which both discusses wisdom and Solomon's views about wisdom as a virtue. From all accounts,  it wasn't written by Solomon, even the Early Church didn't believe it was written by Solomon himself, but rather put together by his friends. So after reading it all...here's my verdict.

Wisdom of Solomon is a book which both discusses wisdom and Solomon's views about wisdom as a virtue. Whether it was actually written by Solomon is contested, and even during the Early Church it doesn't seem to have been believed to be by Solomon himself, but rather put together by his friends. I don't know what I'm doing in this desert, but may as well add it to my list of pieces to explore...so should it be put in the canon? Or axed?

There are some good points of contemplation in Judith...But should it be canon?

The Book of Judith is often compared to the story related to the Prophetess Deborah and the story of Esther.  What can be gained from reading this story, if anything at all?

Baruch seems a lot like what Jeremiah 14 was talking about...does the NT have any supporting evidence for it?

View Details

Baruch is believed to have been written by the Prophet Jeremiah's scribe, Baruch.  Despite his close connection to the prophet, however, this book was written out of the canon.  I wonder why...and if it should have remained in place.

We've gone through Tobit...and now it's time to consider the facts...I've harped on the "Pharmekia" problem...but the bronze serpent seemed counter 2nd Commandment and still was allowed.  Does it stand up to the New Testament though?

Tobit is often referenced in Catholic weddings, and is used as supporting evidence for Intercession of the Saints. For those that are not familiar with the term, it’s the name of the tradition which allows Catholics to pray to Angels and Saints asking them to pray on their behalf.
