העלמה in Isaiah 7:14 Virgin, Omoiseke omwekungi

Lecture Notes for Lutheran Theological Seminary— Nyamira, Kenya

Pastor Joseph Abrahamson Isaiah Course, Fall 2018

This presentation discusses the meaning of the Hebrew word הָעַלְמָ֗ה Ha`Almah The Virgin Omoiseke omwekungi and how this word is used in the Hebrew Bible and understood in the Greek New Testament. Learning the uses in the Hebrew Bible will enable us to correct misunderstandings and mistranslations which are widely promoted in academic and non-academic areas. It will also help us to correctly understand the use of the term הָעַלְמָ֗ה Ha`Almah in context for Ebiblia Ekegusi, whether the terms used are omwekungi, omoiseke, or omokungu oria. We will also look at the masculine form of the word הָעָֽלֶם omwana, lad, young man.

In the presentation we will also give the Greek version (The Septuagint) for comparison.

Several scholars have challenged the translation of the word הָעַלְמָ֗ה Ha`Almah as the Virgin. The basic assumption which these scholars share is a denial of miracles. They deny that God is able to do what He wills and has authority over the natural world—that He is Omnipotent. And they deny that God knows all things past, present, and future— that He is Omniscient. 

In Isaiah 7:14 their twofold denial means that 1) they deny that any Scripture could actually be predictive of the future. Particularly, they deny that this passage speaks specifically of the future birth of Jesus Christ. And 2) they deny the miracle of Christ’s Virgin birth. 

Kings of Assyria and the Book of Isaiah--Lecture Part 3

Lecture for Lutheran Theological Seminary-Nyamira, Kenya. Part 3.

Sargon II (r. 722–705 BC)

Assyrian: Šarru-ukīn (LUGAL-GI.NA 𒈗𒄀𒈾);
Hebrew: סַֽרְג֖וֹן
Greek: Αρνα, Σαραγω, Σαργων, or Ἀρκεάνου
Ekegusii: Sarigoni

Isaiah 20 begins with the note:

“In the year that Tartan came to Ashdod, when Sargon the king of Assyria sent him, and he fought against Ashdod and took it”

This is the only mention of Sargon in the Bible.

The capture of Ashdod probably took place in 711 BC, in Sargon II’s 10th or 11th year.

Sargon II was the son of Tiglath-Pileser III. From what we can find it looks like he usurped the throne from his brother Shalmaneser V. His son, the crown prince, Sennacherib, pictured in the carving, assisted in ruling.

The Assyrian Kings play a prominent role in the Bible.

This presentation is intended to give concrete examples of how modern historical research touches upon the text of the Bible, particularly the book of Isaiah. It is written to give students a clearer understanding for the benefits of and for the limits of both Biblical interpretation and historical research used in the interpretation of the ancient world and of the book of Isaiah in particular.

Scope of Assyrian History

The history of the Assyrian empires is commonly divided into four periods by modern historians.

• Early Assyrian period (2450-1906 BC)
• Old Assyrian period (1905-1931 BC)
• Middle Assyrian period (1380-912 BC)
• Neo-Assyrian period (912-608 BC)

Of these periods the Neo-Assyrian period is relevant to the immediate historical context of the book of Isaiah. In the 12th century to the 10th century BC the ancient world seems to have experienced a wide spread change. Historians today call this the Bronze Age Collapse. While Assyria was able to retain its national character, it was reduced in size and influence throughout the ancient Near-East.
