The Vikings' Conversion to Christianity - Norse Mythology for Smart People

The Vikings’ Conversion to Christianity "Ansgar Preaches the Christian Doctrine in Sweden" by Hugo Hamilton (1830) The traditional tales of the Vikings’ conversion to Christianity are sleek dramas full of zealous missionary saints, kings, and clerics who Christianize entire populations in a few heroic actions that are hardly short of miracles.

HEBREWS FOR CHRISTIANS - Joshua and Jesus

Is "Hebrews for Christians" the Zionist reply to "Jews for Jesus"? I am guessing this doesn't just mean the Book of Hebrews (in the Old Testament) but rather . . . Hebrew people now living and answering. -zas Parashat Shelach Before sending out the leaders of the tribes to spy out the land, Moses renamed his trusted servant Hoshea (הוֹשֵׁעַ) to Yehoshua (יְהוֹשֻׁעַ), appending the letter Yod (י) to make his name begin with a divine prefixive (יָהּ־). The Talmud (Sotah 34b) states tha...

Joseph vs Jesus

Old Testament Charts (Bible History Online) Joseph, a Type of Christ Genesis 37:8 - And his brethren said to him, Shalt thou indeed reign over us? or shalt thou indeed have dominion over us? And they hated him yet the more for his dreams, and for his words.
