Theological Society scholars are among the primary contributors to a forthcoming book series from the Biblical Research Institute at the General Conference on the topic of the Sabbath.</p> <p>The four

Ekkehardt Mueller, a BRI associate director and ATS board member, reports that the second volume, on the Sabbath in the New Testament, is closest to completion.</p> <p>Mueller points out that the Adventist Church has published little scholarly work on the topic of Sabbath since Kenneth Strand’s book in 1982 (<em>The Sabbath in Scripture and History</em>, E. P. Dutton). “We have to take a fresh look at some passages in Scripture,” says Mueller, “because Evangelical [scholars] have presented some refined arguments against the Sabbath. The challenge is to show that the Sabbath is as valid in the New Testament as it is in the Old Testament.”</p> <p>The various volumes each require a different approach, says Mueller. "For the Old and New Testament books, thorough exegetical work is needed (historical-grammatical [biblical], narrative, cultic studies, purity studies, intertextuality, some biblical theology, and so on). The volume on the Sabbath in history requires a thorough historical approach." The third volume will include such practical topics as the Sabbath in worship, creation theology, ethics, ecology, and several others.</p> <p>The first volume is scheduled for release in 2018.</p> </div> </div> </div> <div class="child content"> <div class="inner"> <h2>Teachers, Pastors Attend Faith and Science Conferences</h2> <p class="tags"></p> <div class="content"> <figure><img src="assets/public/images/551.jpg" /> <figcaption>Faith & Science Conf.</figcaption> </figure> <p>The first two of a series of conferences organized by the Faith and Science Council at the General Conference of Seventh-day Adventists were presented in summer 2017, one in St. George, Utah, USA, and the other at Montemorelos University, Nuevo León, Mexico.</p> <p>“The goal of these conferences,” says ATS treasurer Ed Zinke, “is to explore areas of science and theology that interrelate with and support the biblical worldview, particularly creation and the flood.”</p> <p>Adventist Theological Society officers and members were integrally involved in the planning and presentation at these conferences, with Zinke in particular taking the lead in making the conferences happen. More than 400 science and religion teachers and school and church administrators participated at each of the 2017 meetings.</p> <figure><img src="assets/public/images/553.jpg" /></figure> <p>“The Faith and Science Conference was a tremendous experience for me,” says Nathan Hess, science teacher at Spencerville Adventist Academy in Maryland, USA. “It was very reassuring to see both Adventist and non-Adventist scientists give solid scientific evidence for their belief in a seven-day creation. . . . We must do excellent science and should resist the temptation to try and bend science into our religious framework. Let the data speak for itself and allow the Creator to open up the amazing world He made.”</p> <p>Plans are underway for Faith and Science conferences in three other divisions: East-Central Africa (Rwanda); Euro-Asia (Ukraine); and South America (Peru), but dates are yet tentative.</p> <p>— <em>Gary B.

The museum is a contemporary commentary on biblical history and has been a vision of its founders for decades.</p> <p>The museum features more than 40,000 artifacts divided into three sections. The first section speaks about the history of the Bible from its origins until today; the second uses narratives to make biblical history come alive from Genesis to New Testament times; and the third explores the impact of the Book of all books, the best-selling book of all time, on cultures, civilizations, and daily life.</p> <p>The museum also has a performing arts theater, research labs and libraries, gathering rooms, biblical gardens, and a restaurant.</p> <p>In the museum, the Bible is primarily presented as a historical artifact, vital for understanding Western culture and a valuable transmission of a specific literary tradition. Biblical narratives are presented in a clear, objective, and descriptive way, without reference to any denominational faith perspective.</p> <div class="block block--right"> <figure><img src="assets/public/images/560.jpg"> <figcaption>Dead Sea Scrolls Fragment</figcaption> </figure> </div> <p> Some of the most valuable artifacts are Dead Sea Scrolls, papyrus 39, and the fragment of the Gospel of John. Visitors will also find one of the largest collections of private Torah scrolls and imprints of the Bible from the Middle East, Europe, and North Africa.</p> <p>Washington, DC was selected as an ideal location to share the story of the Bible with people of cultures, religions, and ethnicities from all over the world. The museum is an attempt to raise awareness of the impact of the most valuable book in history. Historians, archeologists, curators, theologians and preachers, experts in world religions, philosophers and other scholars, Christians of all denominations, and others interested in the nature and influence of the Bible are welcoming this huge project that will make a significant impact on the contemporary US and world culture.</p> <p>For more information, see the <a href="http://www.museumofthebible.org/">Museum of the Bible</a> site.</p> <p>— <em>Alex S.
