The Restoration-Restoring What?

Introduction

The Pharisees were into the minutia of the Old Testament regulations and Jesus chastised them for being concentrated on the note of the regulations rather than of the essence of the laws. Jacob's descendants were the Israelites and the Old Testament notifies of their 2000 year history. We will glimpse that these 2000 years resemble the six time span of the preceding 2000 years. (Achtemeier, Green & Thompson 2002)

The first time span of the Jewish persons was the 400 years of slavery under the pharaoh of Egypt. They had developed to a large number of persons and eventually, Moses, a liberator, came. (Harris & Platzner 2007)

The Old Testament was, as asserted by both Jewish and Christian customs, attributed to Moses until comparatively latest times.

Unfortunately, Solomon defiled the temple (symbolically the Second Adam) by letting his wives adoration pagan gods there. Man afresh failed to lay the correct base for the Messiah. (Jones 2007)

The article of Judah Maccabee starts in a little village called Modin. The village is about 20 miles from Jerusalem.

He, and his male siblings John, Simon, Eleazar and Jonathan worked the land in the foothills of the highlands of Judah.

Judah's dad Mattathias was a shrewd and pious man who loved God and his country. He dwelled by the regulation of the Scriptures, and he and his children worshipped in the town synagogue. They were trustworthy to the customs of their people.
