"Josephus states that the Tabernacle was brought into the First Temple [Ref-0026, pp. 8. 101, 106], and that the effect of the spread-winged cherubim was to make it appear as a tent (8. 103)."
Ref-0142, p. 193. "The Hebrew word for 'tabernacle' is Hamishkhan, having the same root as Shechinah. Thus, the word 'tabernacle' can also be translated as 'the dwelling place of the Shechinah."

"While some see [the Tent of Meeting] as a provisional structure that was replaced by the Tabernacle, others see it as one and the same, for both terms are used interchangeably after the Tabernacle's completion (Lev. [[1:3|bible.3.1.3]]; Lev. [[12:6|bible.3.12.6]]; Lev. [[14:23|bible.3.14.23]]; Lev. [[15:14|bible.3.15.14]]; Num. [[11:26|bible.4.11.26]]; Num. [[12:4|bible.4.12.4]]; Deuteronomony 31:14-15). It is preferable to see 'the Tend of Meeting' and 'the Tabernacle' as two parts of a single structure--the outer 'tent' (Hebrew, 'ohel) and the innder 'Tabernacle' (Hebrew, mishkan). For this reason 2S. [[7:6|bible.10.7.6]] notes that God moved about 'in a tent, even in a tabernacle.'"

The Fast of the Fourth, the 17th of Tammuz, commemorated the occasion when Moses discovered them worshiping the golden calf and broke the two tables of the law. The Fast of the Seventh, the 3rd of Tishri is the Fast of Gedaliah, commemorating the assassination of the governor appointed by Nebuchadnezzar to govern the Jews who remained in their homeland after the Temple had been destroyed in 586 B.C. The Fast of the Tenth, the 10th of Tevet, was for the day that Nebuchadnessar laid siege on Jerusalem.
"The greatest Roman historian in the days of the Empire was Cornelius Tacitus, who was born between A.D. 52 and 54 and wrote the history of Rome under the emperors. . . he described the great fire which ravaged Rome in A.D. 64 and told how it was widely rumored that Nero had instigated the fire, in order to gain greater glory for himself by rebuilding the city. . . 'Therefore to scotch the rumor, Nero substituted as culprits, and punished with the utmost refinements of cruelty, a class of men, loathed for their vices, whom the crowd styled Christians. Christus, from whom they got their name, had been executed by sentence of the procurator Pontius Pilate when Tiberius was emperor; and the pernicious superstition was checked for a short time, only to break out afresh, not only in Judeae, the home of the plague, but in Rome itself. . .'" cited in

"to learn," "to study". Collection of rabbinical laws, law decisions, and comments on the laws of Moses. Man-made additions to the Mosaic Law, product of the Pharisees. Made up of the
Mishnah and
Gemara. Spans 70 to 100 volumes. "When the Talmud is spoken of without any qualification the reference is to the Babylonian Talmud; the Palestinian Talmud is only about a fourth the volume of the Babylonian, which contains about two million five hundred thousand words."
Ref-0006, p. 128. "Between A.D. 100 and 500, the Talmud (instruction, teaching) grew up as a body of Hebrew civil and canonical law based on the Torah. The Talmud basically represents the opinions and decisions of Jewish teachers from about 300 B.C. to A.D. 500, and it consists of two main divisions: the
Mishnah and the
Gemara."

Some rabbis took this passage as messianic, Talmud in Succah 52a: "One opinion is that they mourn for Messiah Ben Joseph who is killed, and another explanation is that they mourn for the slaying of the evil inclination. It is well according to him who explains that the cause is the slaying of the Messiah since that well agrees with this verse. If it referes to the slaying of the evil inclination, it must be asked, is this an occasion for mourning? Is it not rather an occasion for rejoicing? Why then should they weep?"

"The Jerusalem Targum also appeared at about 700, but has survived in fragments only. None of these Targums is important to the textual critic, but they are all rather significant to the study of hermeneutics [interpretation], as they indicate the manner in which Scripture was interpreted by rabbinical scholars."

"the Aramaic word for 'translation'"
Ref-0152, p. 34. "The word that refers to a translation is targum. In the synagogues the Targums were always oral, while the honored Hebrew text was always read from a scroll. This was a strict rule, lest the paraphrase be confused with the authoritative text. Accordingly, over the centuries a number of Targums arose, and later they were committed to writing, at least by the beginning of the Christian era. By the fifth century two official Targums ahd emerged, Targum Onkelos of the Pentateuch and Targum Jonathan of the Prophets. Of the two, Targum Onkelos is considered the greater authority."
". . .both Paul and the writer to the Hebrews quote Deu. [[32:35|bible.5.32.35]] in the form 'Vengeance is mine, I will repay'. . . This follows neither the familiar Hebrew wording ('Vengeance is mine, and recompense') nor the Septuagint ('In the day of vengeance I will repay'), but it agrees exactly with the targumic version."
Ref-0073, p. 285.
"The statement 'Vengeance is mine, I will repay' (from Deu. [[32:35|bible.5.32.35]]), is quoted in Rom. [[12:19|bible.66.12.19]] and Heb. [[10:30|bible.79.10.30]] in a form corresponding neither to the Hebrew text nor to the Septuagint, but to the Aramaci Targums on the Pentateuch. That renderings or paraphrases known to us only from the Targums were found also in Greek versions of the Old Testament in the first century AD is suggested also by such expressions as 'lest they should. . .be forgiven' (Mark [[4:12|bible.62.4.12]]) in a quotation from Isa. [[6:10|bible.23.6.10]] where the Hebrew and Septuagint read 'lest they. . .be healed'; and 'he gave gifts to men' (Eph. [[4:8|bible.70.4.8]]) in a quotation from Psalm 68:18 (LXX 67:19) where the Hebrew and Septuagint read '. . .received gifts among men'. (In Deu. [[32:35|bible.5.32.35]]; Isa. [[6:10|bible.23.6.10]] and Ps. [[68:18|bible.19.68.18]] the Peshitta (the Syriac version of the Old Testament) agrees with the targumic construction.)"
