Digital Logos Edition
In Introducing Torah Dr. Rebekah Josberger provides important insights into the first five books of the Old Testament. The course begins with a look at the historical context of the Torah and why it inspired love in the hearts of the psalmists. Designed to teach students how to read and appreciate this section of Scripture, the course will walk you through multiple passages of the Torah, with emphasis on the Sabbath, the Ten Commandments, and two difficult marriage/divorce laws in Deuteronomy. You will come away with a better understanding and appreciation of this important portion of the Bible.
Dr. Rebekah Josberger is associate professor of Old Testament and Hebrew at Multnomah University in Portland, Oregon. She has a passion for Old Testament studies and biblical languages, particularly Hebrew. Her goal is for students to learn to read and understand the Word for themselves, whether in Hebrew or English, so that they might better know its Author.
Since her arrival at Multnomah in 2009, Dr. Josberger’s efforts have been focused on developing a solid seminary Hebrew program that enables and encourages students to learn Hebrew well enough to use it for personal growth and ministry long after their student days are over. At Multnomah she enjoys the opportunity to pursue her interests and to work with colleagues she respects and admires while pouring into the lives of students.
Dr. Josberger earned her PhD at the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary and is continuing research related to her dissertation topic, “Between Rule and Responsibility: The Role of the Father as Agent of Righteousness in Deuteronomy’s Domestic Ideology.” She has a special love for the book of Deuteronomy and shares the psalmist’s passion for the Torah as so beautifully expressed in Psalms 19 and 119.
