… Hanukkah is the festival of lights.
Instead of a day of gifts, we have eight nights.
– Adam Sandler

Then, too, there is particularly strong in government practice, which should give a gift, ie a visitor comes to your home in just one of 8 nights would bring a gift to be shared by children, as well as individual gifts for adults, or perhaps only a beautiful gift for the whole family to share – while Christians seem determined to have a designated gift under the Christmas tree for each person in the house.
In any case, the whole world celebrate one of these lovely winter holidays agree that a gift is always welcome, and Jews in particular Hanukkah gift that makes the festival of lights even brighter.

Teaching Matthew: Unlocking the Gospel of Matthew for the Bible Teacher $12.99 “Matthew’s Gospel is a substantial book to consider teaching through its large sections on teaching and theological reflection seeming to predominate over the ‘action’ of the story. However, precisely because there are such rich seams of theology and so much teaching from Jesus himself, it is a wonderful treasuretrove. It also excels as a way of explaining the message of the New Testament gospel so as to open up a sense of its continuity with the whole Old Testament and the fulfilment of God’s covenant promises in Jesus Christ. This is not an exhaustive exposition of the Gospel. The major focus is on Matthew’s five great teaching sections. It is not intended to take the place of commentaries but complement them, as few commentaries seem to be written with the sermon (or Bible exposition) as the point of reference that is being worked towards. As we work through Matthew’s Gospel, then, the aim is to help the Bible teacher find a way into the text that will enable him to use it for its given purpose to be proclaimed as the living word of God. That is the point of Scripture, what it is meant for.” |

Matthew (Interpretation Bible Studies) $11.98 In this Gospel, Matthew tells the story of Jesus, who is the presence of God and has come to call the faithful to a new level of righteousness.

Through his teachings and healings, Jesus breaks the bonds of evil and sin and frees each one for a life rich in celebration and service. By his resurrection, Jesus continues to be present, even until the end of the age. Designed for adults and older youth, Interpretation Bible Studies can be used in small groups, in church school classes, in large group presentations, or in personal study. |
