| Is the Torah to be considered as a dead husband that nobody liked anyway? This is the way many Christians interpret Romans 7:1-6: "For the woman who has a husband is bound by the law to her husband as long as he lives. But if the husband dies she is released from the law of her husband" (verse 2 of Romans 7:1-6). Paul refers to an ancient halachah (principle of the law) to illustrate his new relationship to the Torah because of his faith in Jesus. But one question is never asked when studying Romans 7:1-6. And it is only when the full impact of Paul's Jewish heritage is understood in light of his entire teaching concerning the believer's response to the Torah that this question can be carefully considered. Nonetheless, we must ask: Was Paul speaking about the death of the Torah or was he referring to the death of the flesh? Is the Torah, for Paul, a dead husband?

| For many years Ben Stein has written a biweekly column for the on-line web site called "Monday Night At Morton's", from that famous restaurant which was often frequented by Hollywood Stars. Now, Ben is terminating the column to move on to other things in his life. Reading his final column about our military and other priceless people is worth a few minutes of your time because it praises the most unselfish among us; our military personnel, others who protect us daily and portrays a valuable lesson learned in his life.

| The Parable of the Good Samaritan in Luke 10:29-37 is the classic form of the story parable. Parables are stories that have a message. The Parable of the Good Samaritan has a structure that is similar to many story parables. It is a mini-play with members of a cast and a live drama, which quickly moves from one scene to the next. The parable communicates a deep message. It introduces the members of the cast, and then it takes the listeners on a journey in which they come into contact with the internal conflict of the drama. The resolution of the conflict communicates the deeper meaning of the story.
