INTROCDUCTION TO THE HEBREW BIBLE

MODULE 1(SESSION 5): The Prophet to Come

I have learnt a very important lesson about the concluding and ending of the scrolls boundary markers of the TaNak where for instance according to Deuteronomy 34 there was a promise to receive a Prophet like Moses. The question comes, is it Joshua? The answer is no without disregarding the fact that he performed under the Spirit and wisdom of Moses. Later on the Torah and the Prophets speaks about the the coming of the Elijah-like Prophet. This is portrayed by the hyperlink between the end of the book of Malachi and the Torah and the Prophets and the book of Judges. Thereafter we find a link ( a seam) from the book of Malachi to Psalms. Its real interesting.
