Articles I'm Working On

• Michael Solomon Alexander
• Joseph Joachim, see the German Wikipedia article on this man, and also the photograph of a monument in his honor.

Interesting Links

• http://gitorious.org/bible-of-kralice/ a typeset copy of the kralická bible (Czech) with LaTeX source files in a GIT repository.
• http://ebible.org/ has a Messianic Edition of the World English bible. Further, there is a LaTeX version available for download. This a modern translation of the bible, but it has been released without copyright restriction!

Article Ideas

• A Messianic Prophecy portal.
  • Get a list of Messianic prophecy bible verses.
  • Explain weigh the evidence (for and against) a Messianic interpretation.
  • Explain how this points to a Yeshua.
  • Don't be afraid to document false assertions within the MJ community. That is, verses that are asserted in credible literature (books, websites) to be of a messianic nature but have little or no basis in fact. If facts are in our favor, we don't need large numbers to toss around e.g.,"333 Messianic Prophecies!" and such.

• A Messianic Claimants portal.
  • Document the claims of false Messiahs (ancient and modern) and how they compare to Yeshua's claims. This should focus on Jewish claimants (Shabbetai Tzvi, etc.) for now.
  • Perhaps this can be merged with the MJ Prophecy portal idea (above): featured Messianic Prophecy with a featured false messianic claimant used as a foil against genuine MJ Prophecy.
