After 29 years of in-depth bible study and six years of lecturing on books of the bible I have used many resources to assimilate information for Old Testament history. This PowerPoint presentation of the Twelve Tribes of Israel is one of the most detailed studies that I have ever encountered. My study and teaching of the gospels gave me knowledge of the tribe and lineage Jesus Christ, a descendant of Israel’s tribe of Judah. I really appreciate the detailed timeline from chronicling the years from the God’s call of Abram 2080 BC until the rebuilding of the temple 515 BC. The timeline requires five slides to display all the details and also is available in a black and white printable resource. Each tribe has from 8 to 16 color coded slides with is the map for each tribe showing their placement in the Promise Land. As I prepare slideshows for the two classes I teach each week, it is very difficult to find detailed maps made to fit PPT. Not only are the slides colorful but they are very detailed with cities and regions and water features. This in itself is an awesome resource. Another key element is the 23 slides with the general information about the Israel’s history from Jacob encounter with angel of God through the fulfillment of Abraham’s promise in the Book of Revelation. A chart shows the birth order and the mother of each son, their symbol, and their placement around the tabernacle in the desert, as well as the color and stone on the breastplate of the High Priest. There are enough slides to produce a good study of each tribe. The tribe of Levi and the tribe of Judah are especially detailed. Colorful pictures of the Tabernacle and some well known figures along with black and white sketches add greatly to the PPT. This resource was give to me by Rose Publishing for my honest review.
...it also never occurred to me (as a Jew) that a pamphlet proclaiming to be about the 12 Tribes of Israel would be written from a Christian perspective (which DOES differ in many ways from the Jewish translations / interpretation of the Old Testament.) It wasn't until I received the pamphlet and opened to start reading that I was surprised to see not only mention of and reference to the New Testament, but that even though the biblical quotes throughout the pamphlet are roughly 50:50 Old:New Testament, that the entire central theme of the pamphlet is not the 12 Tribes of Israel, but how these Tribes relate to "our savior" Jesus Christ. In concept this would not bother me if it was spelled out ahead of time more early in the description - enough to keep me from purchasing it. Again there is nothing inherently wrong with this. But as a Jew, I purchased this as a reminder / educational tool for use in learning Jewish biblical history - not the New Testament.While I should have read the description and reviews better, the name of the guide is inherently misleading, leading to my 3 star rating.It is a fine tool for its intended use. But it should have a clearer name and description.
Please please please people,,, read The Word of God for yourselves and don't rely on others. Let me say, this is a beautiful pamphlet and I love how they have illustrated it. It very attractive to learn from. BUT..... There are some flaws in the lesson that I wish American Christians would come to the knowledge of. Let me just say this, when Jesus told his disciples when the Canaanite woman with the possessed daughter was begging to help her and said I have only come for The Lost Sheep of the House of Israel who do you think he's talking about? Not Jews. Its time Americans read there Old Testament and find out that the House of Israel and the House of Judah are not the same. The Jews have ""always"" been in covenant with God and therefore were never lost. So who else could Jesus be referring too??? Possibly those who today share his name??? His testimony ??? And the ones who are to go to the Canaanite women and men of the world and share the good news?? All Israel were not Jews and not all Nations are in covenant with God only Israel has ever been, and soon all nations through Christ Jesus will be blessed if they obey God and keep his Commandments.
