Scholars Press The Ecological Message of the Torah: Knowledge, Concepts and Laws with Made Survival in a land of Milk and Honey Possible
The Hebrew Bible was written by authors who had a very modern idea of basic biology and a deep insight into the functioning of fragile ecosystems. They had a well-founded concept of how nature should be treated so that it would not be degraded but preserved and handed over intact to the next generation. To achieve this goal the sages did not rely on a general feeling of benevolence towards nature but came up with a cogent system of laws which precisely directed their way of handling natural resources. The main goals of these ecological commandments of the Torah were to avoid overuse of the land and to maintain a high diversity of species. This program enabled the Israelites to establish a highly productive sustained agriculture under the rather adverse conditions of a 'land of milk and honey.'

Scholars Press The Wicked Tenants and Gethsemane: Isaiah in the Wicked Tenants' Vineyard, and Moses and the High Priest in Gethsemane
This work examines Judaic traditions evident in the Parable of the Wicked Tenants (Mark 12:1-9) and the depiction of Jesus in Gethsemane (Mark 14:32-42.) In the first instance, the author of Mark found a resource for his parable in Isaiah 5 and Exodus 15:1-18, while in the second instance, the portrayal of Jesus is linked to Moses' struggle with death at the end of his life, as well as motifs and expressions used for the high priest on the evening and Day of Atonement. An appendix to the volume compares Paul's calling and re-commissioning in 2 Corinthians 12:1-10 with the description of Moses' calling and death scene. This is the author's fourth book on the Judaic sources of New Testament texts.
