Esta dissertao tem por foco apresentar o mtodo hermenutico tipolgico como ferramenta proposta para compreender a leitura realizada pelo evangelho de Mateus 4.15-16 da profecia de Isaas 8.23 9.1 [TM]. O texto receber ateno a partir do Texto Massortico e da Septuaginta, sempre em comparao com o texto grego de Mateus. Por conseguinte, o contexto judaico do primeiro sculo ser estudado para compreender mais amplamente o ambiente em que o evangelista possivelmente se encontrava para escrever o seu evangelho. As tcnicas de interpretao contempladas em paralelo com a tipologia, consideradas de maior importncia para este trabalho so: trs tcnicas rabnicas, isto , pesher, midrah e gezerah shavah, e outras trs tcnicas de interpretao eminentemente crists, isto , duplo-cumprimento, o sensus plenior e a tipologia. Por fim, o estudo comparativo do judasmo do primeiro sculo e das tcnicas de interpretao resultar na escolha da interpretao tipolgica, mas sem um radical rompimento com as demais escolas, pelo contrrio, conflitando com alguns apontamentos dos Rolos do Mar Morto e seu apocalipticismo. A interpretao tipolgica se ocupar com as semelhanas entre o texto veterotestamentrio e o neotestamentrio, bem como semelhanas que poderiam compor um cenrio mais abrangente. Sero considerados trs temas comuns dos dois textos que estabelecem um vnculo entre ambos, ou seja, a geografia, os gentios e a interpretao da luz.

Le rcit de la Pentecte (Actes des Aptres 2) prsente au lecteur un lment particulier qui se retrouve rarement dans le canon biblique : les langues comme de feu . Seuls les passages dIsae 5,24 et Actes 2,3 utilisent cette expression; pourtant, leurs contextes diffrent largement. Nous trouvons certains commentaires rabbiniques et fragments de rouleaux de la Mer Morte qui emploient cette mme expression, et la littrature grco-romaine utilise une image similaire o un feu divin se pose sur la tte de certains personnages. Puisque la fonction de cet lment diffre dun ouvrage littraire un autre, comment devons-nous interprter les langues de feu dans le rcit de la Pentecte? Les commentaires bibliques qui examinent cet lment proposent diffrentes hypothses sur la symbolique des langues de feu. Afin de rpondre cette problmatique, nous commencerons notre tude avec une prsentation sur ltat de la question et des approches synchroniques utilises. Nous prsenterons ensuite lanalyse structurelle du rcit de la Pentecte afin de percevoir la place que notre expression occupe dans cette pricope. Au chapitre trois, nous ferons une analyse grammaticale de notre segment afin de voir la fonction grammaticale de lexpression, et prsenter une recension des ouvrages hbraques et grco-romains qui utilisent cette expression ou une image similaire. Enfin, lanalyse philologique des termes et sera labore et compare lutilisation retrouve dans le livre des Actes des Aptres. Subsquemment, nous serons en mesure de porter un regard critique sur quelques interprtations proposes afin de percevoir que la mise en rseau structurel du membre , avec les termes rptitifs et synonymiques du rcit, nous orientent percevoir laccomplissement de la promesse du Saint-Esprit, qui son tour habilite le croyant raliser la mission donne : la proclamation du message christologique toutes les ethnies.

Deeply conflicting views on the political situation of Judaea under the Roman prefects (6-41 c.e.) have been offered. According to some scholars, this was a period of persistent political unrest and agitation, whilst according to a widespread view it was a quiescent period of political calm (reflected in Tacitus phrase sub Tiberio quies). The present article critically examines again the main available sources particularly Josephus, the canonical Gospels and Tacitus in order to offer a more reliable historical reconstruction. The conclusions drawn by this survey calls into question some widespread and insufficiently nuanced views on the period. This, in turn, allows a reflection on the non-epistemic factors which might contribute to explain the origin of such views.

Objective: This study assessed the effects of an aquatic respiratory exercise-based program in patients with fibromyalgia (FMS). Methods: Forty women, aged between 20 and 60 years, were randomly assigned into two groups of 20 patients: the aquatic respiratory exercise-based program (ARG) and the control group (CTL). The ARG group performed the exercise program for 1 h, four times a week, for 4 weeks which included: (i) warming-Lip; (ii) respiratory exercises, consisting of five different breathing patterns, along With upper, lower limbs and trunk movements (45 min); and (iii) relaxation exercises. Both groups were included in supervised recreational activities of 1 h, once a week, for 4 weeks. Questionnaires were applied before and after intervention to assess quality of life and functional capacity (SF-36, Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire [FIQ]), anxiety (Hamilton Anxiety Scale [HAS]), and quality of sleep (Pittsburg Sleep Quality Index [PSQI]). Number of tender points and pain (Visual Analogue Scale [VAS]) were also evaluated. Results: At baseline there was no difference between the two groups, including number of tender points and questionnaire responses. After intervention, the ARG group, compared with the CTL group, showed improvement in SF-36 scores (physical functioning P = 0.001, bodily pain 1) = 0.001, vitality P = 0.009, social functioning P = 0.001, emotional role P = 0.001), in FIQ (total score P = 0.049, work missed P = 0.036, fatigue P = 0.013, morning tiredness P = 0.007) plus in VAS-pain (P = 0.029), VAS-dyspnea (P = 0.04), anxiety (HAS P = 0.005) and quality of sleep (PSQI P = 0.004). Conclusions: The short-term aquatic respiratory exercise-based program improved pain, quality of life, functional capacity, anxiety and quality of sleep in patients with FMS and may be a relevant addition to the treatment of these patients.

Lake Kinneret (LK) is a relatively fresh water take situated in the Dead Sea Rift (DSR) Valley. The pore water (PW) in the sediments underlying LK pelagic zone have significantly higher salinity than that of the lake. The concentrations of major ion solutes (Cl, Br, Na, K, Mg) in PW from six 2.4 m to 5.1 m long sediment cores increase linearly with depth, indicating the occurrence of saline, deep seated brines. The upper part of the PW column is affected by the much fresher boundary with LK water and in most cores is characterized by gradually increasing Br/Cl and decreasing Na, Mg, K/Cl molar ratios, which tend to stabilize at about 2.0 m below the sediment surface. The 'stable' molar ratios in the deeper PW vary spatially and are supposed to represent the ratios in the deep underlying brines at each site. When plotted as Na/Cl vs. Br/Cl, the stable ratios of the northern and central part of the lake fall close to a straight line which characterizes many of the brines in the DSR Valley. However, the respective ratios in the southern part of the lake fall markedly off the DSR line. Moreover, Na/Cl and K/Cl molar ratios in the south are significantly higher than in the central and northern parts. delta Cl-37 measured in present LK water is ca. 0.0 parts per thousand. Along the PW column at the lake center, delta Cl-37 is becoming more positive with depth, reaching values of about +0.5 parts per thousand to +0.6 parts per thousand at 3 m depth. Even more positive values (+0.7 parts per thousand to +0.8 parts per thousand) are detected further north, in PW from deeper sediment layers. In contrast, in PW from the southeastern part of the lake, delta Cl-37 is becoming more negative with depth (-1.0 parts per thousand at similar to 2.6 m). It is suggested that these isotopic differences are also indicative of spatial variability in the PW brine sources. O-18 and D values in the PW of all 3 m long cores are similar and resemble the respective levels in LK. The source of H2O in 3 m deep, bed sediments is claimed to be the overlying lake water, and therefore water isotopes do not provide a clue regarding the original water isotopic composition in the underlying brines. PW from the southeast with higher K/Cl and Na/Cl but lower concentrations of these solutes, suggest leaching by meteoric water of sub-surface halite and post-halite salt formations, while the more saline PW from the northern and central parts, that have lower K/Cl and Na/Cl, and higher Br/Cl, are similar to DSR brines and represent underlying residual brines.

Tularemia caused a die-off of captured wild prairie dogs this summer at a Texas commercial exotic animal facility that distributes the animals for sale as pets. Raptors can acquire avian vacuolar myelinopathy (AVM) via ingestion of other affected birds. House Finch Mycoplasmosis: bacterial eye disease of house finches Raccoon Rabies report Toxoplasmosis The newest finding regarding sea otters in California is the importance of toxoplasmosis as a mortality factor. Toxoplasma gondii is a protozoan parasite that can invade visceral organs and the central nervous system to cause acute, disseminated tissue necrosis and fatal meningoencephalitis in susceptible animals. In recent years, 36% of dead sea otters examined have been infected. Another tissue-invading protozoan, Sarcocystis neurona, also was found in 4% of the otters. Recovery of remnant populations of the endangered black-footed ferret have been hampered by sylvatic plague, which is caused by the bacterium Yersinia pestis.
