These notes have been adapted from a Young People’s Zoom online Bible Study in 2021. Joseph is one of the most loved characters in the Old Testament, and with good reason too. The reader, and any who study his life and character will appreciate many similarities to the Lord Jesus Christ. Some thoughts from theContinue reading “Thoughts on Joseph”

Things of Gold in the Holiest of all
Summary of some of the things of gold that are mentioned in the Holiest of all – adapted from Toward the Mark magazine April 2017 issue.
Overview of Deuteronomy
Deuteronomy means ‘second law’, but it is not a second giving of the law, but a reminder. It is the fifth book of the Bible, and the last of the books of Moses. The number 5 speaks of human responsibility. The wilderness is reviewed and instructions and directions are given in relation to the promisedContinue reading “Overview of Deuteronomy”
Overview of Numbers
Numbers is the fourth book of the Bible as well as in the books of Moses, and the number 4 is the number of the earth. On the fourth day the material things were created. There are four earthly kingdoms mentioned in Daniel. This is also the “wilderness” book. The wilderness is a picture ofContinue reading “Overview of Numbers”
Overview of Leviticus
The book of Leviticus can be very easily misunderstood if it is read, or not read, for the wrong reasons. Many of us, and I fall into this, upon finishing Genesis and struggling to get through the second half of Exodus, tend to skip Leviticus because at first glance it is just about a setContinue reading “Overview of Leviticus”
Overview of Exodus
The book of Exodus is about the children of Israel in Egypt under bondage and then God’s work of redemption – the name exodus means going out. It is a book of departure. Exodus flows from the end of Genesis, in mentioning the sons of Jacob and the children of Israel that went from CanaanContinue reading “Overview of Exodus”

Most importantly, the beginning of creation is found in the very fist chapter. What is more vital is that the ‘Triune’ God is foundContinue reading “Overview of Genesis”
Genesis to Deuteronomy
It is very striking that we have the first five books in our Bible, Genesis to Deuteronomy, in the particular order, and for a reason also. The names of these books have meanings, and the meanings will help unravel the reason as to why they are in this particular order, why Genesis is first, thenContinue reading “Genesis to Deuteronomy”
Tabernacle Divisions
This is an attempted division of the Tabernacle, found in Exodus 25-30 as per the instructions that God gave to Moses when he was on the mountain for 40 days. I used the aid of respected writers/commentators, along with clear sections/divisions in the Bible, the Word of God. This is to encourage a study ofContinue reading “Tabernacle Divisions”
Thoughts on Enoch
There is not a lot mentioned in the Bible about Enoch, but what is mentioned in just a few parts of the Word of God is striking. Enoch did not have such a large biography like Abraham or Joseph, but what is mentioned about him is sufficient to say that he walked with God, pleasedContinue reading “Thoughts on Enoch”
