草必枯干，花必凋残，惟有我们神的话，必永远立定------先知以赛亚我今日呼天唤地向你们作见证：你们必在过约旦河得为业的地上，速速灭尽！你们不能在那地上长久，必尽行除灭。耶和华必使你们分散在万民中，在他所领你们到的万国里，你们剩下的人数稀少。耶和华必使你败在仇敌面前，你从一条路去攻击他们，必从七条路逃跑。你必在天下万国中抛来抛去。”“你在耶和华领你到的各国中，要令人惊骇、笑谈、讥诮。”“耶和华必使你们分散在万民中，从地这边到地那边，你必在那里事奉你和你列祖素不认识木头石头的神。在那些国中，你必不得安逸，也不得落脚之地；耶和华却使你在那里心中跳动，眼目失明，精神消耗。你的性命必悬悬无定，你昼夜恐惧，自料性命难保。你因心里所恐惧的，眼中所看见的，早晨必说，巴不得到晚上才好；晚上必说，巴不得到早晨才好。”（申命记4：26-27；28：25，37，64-67）GetStarted_1.1GetStartedJewishculture,withahistoryofabout5,000years,belongstooneoftheoldestcivilizationsintheworld.Accordingtosomehistoricallegends,JewsdescendedfromtheancientIsraelitesorHebrewsinthelandofIsrael.TheIsraelitemonarchycameintobeingunderthethreekings,namelySaul,DavidandSolomon.AfterSolomon’sdeath,thecountrywasdividedintotwoparts.AfterfivedecadesofBabyloniancaptivity,Israelwasnon-existentasanindependentcountryuntilMay14,1948whentheUnitedNationsdeclaredthefoundingoftheJewishnationofIsrael.TheJewishpeopleweatheredthestormsofallkindsofethnicdifficultiesanddisastersoverthelongperiodofbeingexiledfromonecountryGetStarted_1.2GetStartedtoanotherinEuropeandelsewhereintheworld.However,withapproximatelyfivemillenniaofhistoricaldevelopment,theJewishpeopleandtheirculturehaveembodiedbothanextraordinarytemperamentoffirmness,adaptabilitytohardshipaswithastrongsenseofreligiousbeliefandspiritualsupportwhichpervadedallstagesoftheirhistoryandwhichhascontinuedgenerationsupongenerations.Inencounteringothergreatcultures,theJewshaveactivelyassimilatedthebeneficialelementsandintegratedthemintotheirown,asanunbrokenpartofculturaltradition.DuringthelongpersistenceofDiasporaintheirhistory,theycollectedandpreservedthescatteredpiecesofmaterialandstoriesoftheirnationalandreligioushistoriesbeforecomposingorwritingthemintosomeGetStarted_1.3GetStartedformaldocumentsasclassics,suchastheOldTestament,theTorah,theMishnaandTalmud,etc.Therefore,Jewishculturecouldbewellpreservedandwidelydisseminatedallovertheworld.Meanwhile,throughitshistoricaldevelopment,theJewishculturehassignificantlyinfluencedothercultures,fromtheancientBabylonianandEgyptiandowntoWesternChristendomandmodernEuropeansociety.GetStarted_2.1GetStartedTogetabriefviewofthehistoryanddevelopmentoftheJewishCivilizationTounderstandtheprocessoftheformationofJudaismandthemainfeaturesofJudaismTobefamiliarwithJewishphilosophy,literatureandartsToknowthespecificpartsandcontentsoftheOldTestament.TextStudy_mainTextStudyTextStudyI.ABriefAccountoftheJewishHistoryII.JewishArtandLiteratureIII.JudaismandJewishFestivalsIV.AnIntroductiontotheOldTestamentTextStudy_I_1.1TextStudyMainIdeasMainIdeasTheFormation,DivisionandFallofIsraelFormation
