Exploring the Tanach: Sefer Shmu'el Aleph - Part I

The twelfth in a series of videos exploring the Tanach (Hebrew Bible).

Sefer Shmuel or the Book of Samuel is a single book that has been split into two books by Christianity beginning with the Septuagint and continuing into the Vulgate. In most Tanachs, Sefer Shmuel has continued to be split into two books but is traditionally considered one book.

Sefer Shmuel is the third book in the Neviim (Prophets) section of the Tanach and is part of the Neviim Rishonim Former Prophets. This sefer was written by Samuel, Gad, and Nathan.

Sefer Shmuel gives the history of Israel from the concluding days of the Judges through the reigns of Saul and David. The sefer continues with the narrative up to Davids old age and decline in health.

שמע ישראל שניאורסאהן אלוהינ שניאורסאהן אחד?

חב"ד=חילול השם

יחי אדוננו מורנו ורבינו שניאורסאהן המשיח לעולם ועד

[tonyschmoeredux]

I love the way Jahwe can be subtle.

It is also very interesting the way you take the opportunity to show the different illustrations of the Ark.
