This document provides an introduction to the Epistle to the Hebrews, including information about its authorship, intended readership, date of writing, style, themes, and outline. The key points are:
1) The authorship is uncertain but suggested authors include Paul, Barnabas, and others. The intended readership was likely Jewish Christians in Italy who were in danger of abandoning Christianity and reverting to Judaism.
2) The letter was written around 64-68 AD based on references to Timothy and lack of mention of the destroyed Jerusalem temple.
3) The writing displays great literary skill and argues for the superiority of Christianity and Christ over Judaism through examples from the Old Testament.
New Testament Survey no.27: Paul - Second Letter to TimothyClive Ashby
As part of the New Testament Survey Course, Session 27 provides an overview of the Apostle Paul's second letter to his close friend, Timothy. This is a very personal and most likely Paul's final letter before being executed in Rome. It contains a profound message of perseverance through struggle, and living to fulfill God's calling upon your life. (Course taught at Harare Theological College - 2016).
New Testament Survey - no.24 : Paul - Pastoral LettersClive Ashby
As part of the New Testament Survey Course, Session 24 provides an overview of Paul's letters to his colleagues, to provide teaching, instruction and advice on their pastoral work in Ephesus and Crete. These were written during Paul's fifth mission journey, after being released from Roman imprisonment, prior to his execution in Rome several years later. They provide universal principles on church leadership relevant to this day. (Course taught at Harare Theological College - 2016).

Mark's gospel was written under the shadow of persecution. It is filled with action and only a small amount of teaching. It shows Jesus suffered and was victorious.
EVANGELISM 101: Lesson 1 - Biblical Foundations of EvangelismFrancis Hernandez
For “everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” How then will they call on him in whom they have not believed? And how are they to believe in him of whom they have never heard? And how are they to hear without someone preaching? And how are they to preach unless they are sent? As it is written, “How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the good news!” (Romans 10:13-15)
"It (Evangelism) comes from the same Greek word for gospel (euangelion) and means, literally, “gospeling.” When we evangelize we are “gospeling” — we are spreading the Gospel of Jesus Christ." - https://www.ligonier.org/learn/devotionals/what-evangelism/
Every Christian is called to do the divine task of evangelism. Evangelism is a task not just for the select churches, or for the evangelists or pastors. This is Lesson 1 of EVANGELISM 101 Series. Given last April 23, 2021 at HOPE Christian Fellowship in Guinobatan, Calapan City, Oriental Mindoro, Philippines by Ptr. Francis S. Hernandez.

Cleverwood Friday Session : Digital Strategy Youth & BankingCleverwood Belgium
On Friday 18/12, Jurgen Noel came for a special Xmas Friday Session to speak about his job and particularly about how to make a good campaign younger generations and Digital Natives. He showed us the various steps and his tips to reach the young generation on the web and social media. He illustrated this with his recent experiences in the banking sector at ING on social media such as Netlog or Facebook. I personally will remember that we should not try to speak like them because we aren't like them! The tone of voice that will be chosen in a media campaign targeting teenagers is really important.

Digital Strategy in Banking: Thinking about the Customer Experience FirstFabio Mittelstaedt
Simple think is not enough anymore, you need to design think your new digital Bank. Re-invented services, different concepts and new business models. Rewired competition coming from digital garage start-ups from all over the world. And a completely reshaped customer experience in Banking designed from entrepreneurs and FinTech pioneers coming from all industries. All at remarkable speed. It’s safe to say that digital is disrupting banking, and not just unbundling products but building a new lifestyle and enhanced customer journey. So how can banks carry out the right digital strategy and an effective digital governance?
Banks should disrupt themselves and redefine their digital strategy for growth based on three imperatives for success:
1. Technology entrepreneur, to flex your platform with the mindset of a start-up;
2. Banking entrepreneur, to re-orient your business and drive an agile transformation;
3. Digital entrepreneur, to delight your customer with the perfect experience.
"The letter, show John’s obvious affection for his “little children” and concern for their spiritual welfare. The book is filled with contrasts – light and darkness (1:6-7; 2:8-11) love of world and love of God (2:15-17); children of God and children of the devil (3:4-10); the Spirit of God and the spirit of Antichrist (4:1-3); love and hate (4:7-12,16-21)."
“The book is concerned with the practical aspects of Christian conduct; it tells how faith works in everyday life. Jame’s purpose was to provide concrete ethical instruction. Compared to Paul, James shows much less interest in formal theology, though the letter is not without theological statements (1:22; 2:1, 10-12,19; 3:9; 5:7-9,12,14). Many subjects are discussed in this book, making it like a series of brief sayings arranged in the form of a letter. While there is little formal structure to the book, its many instructions explain how to be doers of the Word (1:22). In the 108 verses of the epistle there are references or allusions from twenty-two books of the Old Testament and at least fifteen allusions to the teachings of Christ as embodied in the Sermon on the Mount. Among the key subjects discussed are faith and works (2:14-16), the use of the tongue (3:1-12), and prayer for the sick (5:13-16).”
"En la casa de mi Padre" de Mary A. Kassian es un discipulado que habla al corazón, que deja al descubierto la necesidad de todo ser humano de conocer a Dios como un Padre amoroso a pesar de la experiencia que hallamos tenido con nuestro padre terrenal. Dios quiere revelarse a tu vida como Papá porque quiere relacionarse de una manera íntima y profunda contigo!!!! te invitamos a leer esta adaptación del discipulado original.
"Background: Like Ephesians, Philippians and Colossians, Philemon is one of the Prison epistles, written during Paul’s first confinement in Rome. Onesimus, one of the millions of slaves in the Roman Empire, had stolen from his master. Philemon, and had run away. Eventually, he made his way to Rome, where he crossed the path of the apostle Paul, who led him to faith in Christ (v. 10). Now Onesimus was faced with doing His Christian duty toward his master by returning to him. Since death would normally have been his punishment, Paul wrote this wonderful letter of intercession on Onesimus’s behalf."
"The letter is a reminder (1:12; 3:1) of the truth of Christianity as opposed to the heresies of false teachers. Important passages include those concerning the transfiguration (1:16-18), the inspiration of Scripture (1:21), and the certainty of the second coming of Christ (3:4-10)."
"The General Epistle of Jude", or "The Letter of Jude".
"This letter was written to defend the apostolic faith against false teachings that were arising in the churches."

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

2. INTRODUCTION
THE LETTER TO THE HEBREWS
AUTHOR: Uncertain DATE: 64-68
Authorship Many suggestions have been made for the author of
this anonymous book – Paul, Barnabas, Apollos, Silas, Aquila and
Priscilla, and Clement of Rome. There are both resemblances and
dissimilarities to the theology and style of Paul, but Paul frequently
appeals to his own apostolic authority in his letters, while this writer
appeals to others who were eyewitnesses of Jesus’ ministry (2:3). It
is safest to say, as did the theologian Origen in the third century, that
only God knows who wrote Hebrews.
Readership Three questions are involved in determining the
readership of this letter. (1) What was the racial background of these
readers? Although some have held that they were Gentiles, all
evidence points to their Jewish background – the title of the book, “to
the Hebrews,” the references to the prophets and angels ministering
to Israel, and the citations concerning the Levitical worship. (2)
Where did they live? Palestine or Italy have been the answers most
often given. The preference seems to be Italy, for these readers were
no poor (and the saints in Palestine were, 6:10; 10:34; Rom 15:26);
the Septuagint is used exclusively for quotations from the Old
Testament (one would not expect this if the readers were
Palestinian); and “those from Italy greet you” (13:24) sounds as
though Italians outside of Italy are sending greetings back home. (3)
What was their spiritual condition? Most were believers (3:1), though,
as in every church group, there were doubtless some who merely
professed Christianity. The author calls this letter a “word of
exhortation” (13:22) necessitated by the fact that some were in
danger of abandoning their faith in Christ and reverting to Judaism.
The readers were being persecuted, though not to the point of being
martyrs (10:32-34; 12:4), and in the face of this, some were running
the risk of becoming apostate. The letter is a stirring apologetic for
the superiority of Christ and Christianity over Judaism in Terms of
priesthood and sacrifice.
Date Various dates have been suggested for the writing of
Hebrews, from the 60s to the 90s. However, its use in the book of 1
Clement, which was written in 95, requires a date some time before
that. The lack in the book of any reference to the destruction of the
Temple in Jerusalem as the divine proof that the Old Testament
sacrificial system was finished argues strongly for a date before 70.
3. In addition, the mention of Timothy’s recent release (13:23), if it was
in connection with his ministry to Paul in Rome, requires a date in the
late 60s.
Style The author displays outstanding literary and rhetorical skill.
His style is a model of Hellenistic prose. Both the author and his
readers are very familiar with the Old Testament in the Greek
translation (the Septuagint). There are twenty-nine direct quotations
from the Old Testament plus fifty-three clear allusions to various
other passages. These are used to demonstrate both the finality of
the Christian revelation and its superiority to the old covenant.
Contents The theme of the book is the superiority of Christ and
thus of Christianity. The words “better,” “perfect,” and “heavenly”
appear frequently. The outline shows how the theme is developed by
proving that Christ is superior both in His person and His priesthood.
Favorite passages include 2:3 (so great a salvation), 4:12 (the living
Word of God), 4:16 (the throne of grace), 7:25 (the intercession of
Christ), 11:1 (the description of faith), 11:4-40 (the heroes of faith,
12:1-2 (the Christian race), and 13:20-21 (a great benediction).
Theme “The supremacy of Christ over OT antecedent figures and
other intermediaries Key Verses: 12:1–2 “(J. Brian Tucker)
