43-564: The Book of Deuteronomy in the Hebrew Bible , in describing the abundance of the Holy Land , includes honey among its bounties. Rabbinic texts such as the Jerusalem Talmud and Sifre interpret this honey as date honey rather than bee honey. Archaeological evidence from Jerusalem supports the use of date honey during this period. A storage jar, marked with a palm tree and found in a room of

86-501: A blueprint for the rest of the book, as chapters 12–26 are the exposition of the Decalogue, thus the expanded Decalogue. (The following "literary" outline of Deuteronomy is from John Van Seters ; it can be contrasted with Alexander Rofé's "covenantal" analysis in his Deuteronomy: Issues and Interpretation . ) The final verses, Deuteronomy 34:10–12, "never again did there arise in Israel

129-400: A building destroyed during the siege of Jerusalem in 586 BCE, indicates that date honey was stored there. First-century Jewish historian Josephus , in his account of the oases of Jericho and the various date varieties grown in this region of Judaea , notes that "the better kinds [of dates], when pressed, yield an excellent honey not much inferior in sweetness to other honey." Date syrup

172-690: A little more simply, an advice message is advice about what might be thought, said, or otherwise done to address a problem , make a decision , or manage a situation. Advice-taking and advice-giving are of interest to researchers in the disciplines of psychology , economics , judgment and decision-making , organizational behavior and human resources , and human communication , among others. In psychology, seminal articles include Brehmer and Hagafors (1986), Hollenbeck et al. (1995), and Sniezek and Buckley (1995). The Sniezek and Buckley (1995) and Hollenbeck et al. (1995) articles, in particular, introduced researchers to standardized ways of studying advice in

215-455: A long retelling of Israel's past disobedience – but also God's gracious care, leading to a long call to Israel to choose life over death and blessing over curse (chapters 7–11). Deuteronomy's concept of God changed over time. The earliest 7th century layer is monolatrous ; not denying the reality of other gods but enforcing only the worship of Yahweh in Jerusalem. In the later, Exilic layers from

258-518: A number of short appendices or some kind of epilogue (31:1–34:12), consist of commission of Joshua, the song of Moses and the death of Moses. Other scholars have compared the structure of Deuteronomy with Hittite treaties or other ancient Near Eastern treaty texts. But it is clear that Deuteronomy is not in itself simply the text of a treaty, as Deuteronomy is more than simply applying the secular model of treaty to Israel's relationship with God. The Ten Commandments (Decalogue) in chapter 5 serve as

301-583: A pre-existing relationship between God and Israel, established with Abraham and attested to by the Exodus event, so that the laws of Deuteronomy set the nation of Israel apart, signaling the unique status of the Jewish nation. The land is God's gift to Israel, and many of the laws, festivals and instructions in Deuteronomy are given in the light of Israel's occupation of the land. Dillard and Longman note that "In 131 of

344-477: A prophet like Moses ," make a claim for the authoritative Deuteronomistic view of theology and its insistence that the worship of Yahweh as the sole deity of Israel was the only permissible religion, having been sealed by the greatest of prophets. Deuteronomy 12–26, the Deuteronomic Code , is the oldest part of the book and the core around which the rest developed. It is a series of mitzvot ( commands ) to

387-413: A review of the research literature, that such a definition is incomplete and leaves out several important types of advice These authors have provided the following taxonomy of advice: Of these four types of advice (and socio-emotional support , which is a related form of interpersonal assistance that often accompanies advice), Dalal and Bonaccio (2010) found that decision-makers reacted most favorably to

430-632: Is also used as a sauce for stuffed vegetables, such as onions and turnips, and as an ingredient in a semolina cake called basbousa , which gives the cake a honey-like taste. Bangladesh produces around 20,000 tonnes of date molasses in each year. The Kalkini Upazila region of Bangladesh is famous for its date juice and date molasses.

473-474: Is higher in magnesium and potassium than some natural sweeteners such as maple syrup and honey , and it has been a popular alternative to sugar in recent years. It is also rich in antioxidants due to its high phenolic and flavonoid content and has been shown to exhibit anti-inflammatory activity. It is used widely in Libya , usually with asida , a porridge-like dessert. In Iranian and Iraqi cuisine, date syrup

516-406: Is not uncommon for the advisor to help by doing part of the work themself (interactive consultancy). In other cases a researcher may have a specific question that can be answered in a brief conversation with a consultant (cross-sectional consultancy, or advisory consulting). The advisors role can also take a didactic form, when the client is not familiar with suggested (statistical) methods. Sometimes

559-425: Is rich in the monosaccharides glucose and fructose . This means that most of its sugar content is absorbed into the bloodstream, and it raises the blood glucose levels more efficiently and immediately than other syrups. It is therefore highly suitable for people suffering from hypoglycaemia , for those with sucrose intolerance or those with pancreatic problems who have difficulty absorbing disaccharides. Date syrup

602-633: Is the fifth book of the Torah (in Judaism ), where it is called Devarim ( Biblical Hebrew : דְּבָרִים ‎ , romanized:  Dəḇārīm , lit.   '[the] words [of Moses ]') and the fifth book of the Hebrew Bible and Christian Old Testament . Chapters 1–30 of the book consist of three sermons or speeches delivered to the Israelites by Moses on the Plains of Moab , shortly before they enter

645-459: Is used to sweeten tahini , consumed at breakfast. An alternative is grape syrup . In Algeria , date syrup is used in desserts such as baghrir . In the Middle East , date syrup is used for flavoring chicken and potatoes. They are rubbed in date syrup mixed with cardamom, salt, and olive oil, and then rolled in sesame before being fried in olive oil or baked it in the oven as a whole. Date honey

688-529: The L ORD our God, the L ORD is one." Verses 6:4–5 were also quoted by Jesus in Mark 12:28–34 as the Great Commandment . Patrick D. Miller in his commentary on Deuteronomy suggests that different views of the structure of the book will lead to different views on what it is about. The structure is often described as a series of three speeches or sermons (chapters 1:1–4:43, 4:44–29:1, 29:2–30:20) followed by

731-567: The Mosaic covenant was superseded by faith in Jesus and the gospel (the New Covenant ). Exhortation Advice (also called exhortation ) is a form of relating personal or institutional opinions , belief systems , values , recommendations or guidance about certain situations relayed in some context to another person, group or party. Advice is often offered as a guide to action and/or conduct. Put

774-548: The Promised Land . The first sermon recounts the forty years of wilderness wanderings which had led to that moment and ended with an exhortation to observe the law. The second sermon reminds the Israelites of the need to follow Yahweh and the laws (or teachings) he has given them, on which their possession of the land depends. The third sermon offers the comfort that, even should the nation of Israel prove unfaithful and so lose

817-423: The exilic or postexilic periods (597–332 BC). The second prologue (Ch. 5–11) was the next section to be composed, and then the first prologue (Ch. 1–4); the chapters following 26 are similarly layered. The prophet Isaiah , active in Jerusalem about a century before Josiah, makes no mention of the Exodus , covenants with God, or disobedience to God's laws. In contrast, Isaiah's contemporary Hosea , active in

860-464: The laboratory . The psychological literature on advice-giving and advice-taking was reviewed by Bonaccio and Dalal (2006), and a portion of this literature was also reviewed by Humphrey et al. (2002). Communication researchers have tended to study advice as part of their research on supportive communication. Much research has focused on gender differences (and similarities) in the provision and receipt of supportive communication. In economics,

903-477: The research question and relatedly, the research hypothesis (see scientific hypothesis ). Clients may also seek advice on the construction of a measurement instrument (for instance a psychological test ). Or, they may want to know how to implement an appropriate research design . Often questions arise on how to analyze the data (see data analysis ), and how to interpret and report the results (see scientific publishing ). A researcher will usually know more about

946-558: The 167 times the verb "give" occurs in the book, the subject of the action is Yahweh." Deuteronomy makes the Torah the ultimate authority for Israel, one to which even the king is subject. Deuteronomy 6:4–5: "Hear, O Israel ( shema Yisra'el ), the L ORD is our God, the L ORD is one!" has become the basic credo of Judaism , the Shema Yisrael , and its twice-daily recitation is a mitzvah (religious commandment). It continues, "Thou shalt love

989-519: The Deuteronomic Code, are the earliest section. Since the idea was first put forward by W. M. L. de Wette in 1805, most scholars have accepted that this portion of the book was composed in Jerusalem in the 7th century BC in the context of religious reforms advanced by King Hezekiah (reigned c. 716–687 BC), although some have argued for other dates, such as during the reign of his successor Manasseh (687–643 BC) or even much later, such as during

1032-512: The Israelites regarding how they should conduct themselves in the Promised Land . Mosaic authorship of the Torah, the belief that the five books of the Torah – including the Book of Deuteronomy – were dictated by God to Moses on Mount Sinai, is an ancient Jewish tradition that was codified by Maimonides (1135–1204 AD) as the 8th of the 13 Jewish principles of faith . Virtually all modern secular scholars, and most Christian and Jewish scholars, reject

1075-555: The L ORD thy God with all thy heart and all thy soul and all thy might"; it has therefore also become identified with the central Jewish concept of the love of God, and the rewards that come as a result. In the Gospel of Matthew , Jesus cited Deuteronomy 6:5 as a Great Commandment . The earliest Christian authors interpreted Deuteronomy's prophecy of the restoration of Israel as having been fulfilled (or superseded ) in Jesus Christ and

1118-557: The Mosaic authorship of the Book of Deuteronomy and date the book much later, between the 7th and 5th centuries BC. Its authors were probably the Levite caste, collectively referred to as the Deuteronomist , whose economic needs and social status the book reflects. The historical background to the book's composition is currently viewed in the following general terms: Chapters 12–26, containing

1161-450: The advisor (see statistical consultant ) is to guarantee the quality of research undertaken by their client, a researcher , by providing sound methodological advice. The advice may take different forms. In some cases the advisor collaborates with a researcher in a more long-term process, and guides them through the more technical parts of the research (this type of advising is called longitudinal consultancy). In complex, longterm projects it

1204-407: The best advice is not statistically ideal, but is comprehensible for the client. Depending on the function of the methodological advisor, the advice that is given may not be free. If a student conducts research commissioned by a professor, this professor will probably help this student for free, if needed. However, if a researcher contacts an independent advisor, this probably costs them. In this case

1247-402: The covenant: "obedience is not primarily a duty imposed by one party on another, but an expression of covenantal relationship." Yahweh has elected Israel as his special property (Deuteronomy 7:6 and elsewhere), and Moses stresses to the Israelites the need for obedience to God and covenant, and the consequences of unfaithfulness and disobedience. Yet the first several chapters of Deuteronomy are

1290-538: The death of Moses was originally the ending of Numbers, and was simply moved from there to the end of Deuteronomy. Deuteronomy stresses the uniqueness of God, the need for drastic centralisation of worship, and a concern for the position of the poor and disadvantaged. Its many themes can be organised around the three poles of Israel, Yahweh, and the covenant which binds them together. The themes of Deuteronomy in relation to Israel are election, faithfulness, obedience, and Yahweh's promise of blessings, all expressed through

1333-521: The establishment of the Christian Church (Luke 1–2, Acts 2–5), and Jesus was interpreted to be the "one (i.e., prophet) like me" predicted by Moses in Deuteronomy 18:15 (Acts 3:22–23). While the exact position of Paul the Apostle and Judaism is still debated, a common view is that in place of mitzvah set out in Deuteronomy, Paul the Apostle , drawing on Deuteronomy 30:11–14, claimed that the keeping of

1376-477: The first and fundamental commandment ("Thou shalt have no other gods before me") the people have entered into relations with other gods. Dillard and Longman in their Introduction to the Old Testament stress the living nature of the covenant between Yahweh and Israel as a nation: The people of Israel are addressed by Moses as a unity, and their allegiance to the covenant is not one of obeisance, but comes out of

1419-521: The giving of establishment of the Law. The core of Deuteronomy is the covenant that binds Yahweh and Israel by oaths of fidelity and obedience. God will give Israel blessings of the land, fertility, and prosperity so long as Israel is faithful to God's teaching; disobedience will lead to curses and punishment. But, according to the Deuteronomists, Israel's prime sin is lack of faith, apostasy : contrary to

1462-640: The individual laws are older than the collection itself. The two poems at chapters 32–33 – the Song of Moses and the Blessing of Moses were probably originally independent. Deuteronomy occupies a puzzling position in the Bible, linking the story of the Israelites' wanderings in the wilderness to the story of their history in Canaan without quite belonging totally to either. The wilderness story could end quite easily with Numbers, and

1505-454: The introduction to the full history. But there is an older theory, which sees Deuteronomy as belonging to Numbers, and Joshua as a sort of supplement to it. This idea still has supporters, but the mainstream understanding is that Deuteronomy, after becoming the introduction to the history, was later detached from it and included with Genesis–Exodus–Leviticus–Numbers because it already had Moses as its central character. According to this hypothesis,

1548-467: The land, with repentance all can be restored. The final four chapters (31–34) contain the Song of Moses , the Blessing of Moses , and the narratives recounting the passing of the mantle of leadership from Moses to Joshua and, finally, the death of Moses on Mount Nebo . One of its most significant verses is Deuteronomy 6:4, the Shema Yisrael , which has been described as the definitive statement of Jewish identity for theistic Jews: "Hear, O Israel:

1591-505: The methodological advisor is basically being hired by the researcher. In other cases the advisor may be incorporated into research team, leading to co-authorship. It is advisable to make clear agreements about the advisors compensation on fore hand. Researchers may seek advice on a wide range of subjects concerning their research. One of the major tasks of the methodological advisor is to help their clients think about what they really want to accomplish. This may involve helping them to formulate

1634-544: The mid-6th century, especially chapter 4, this becomes monotheism , the idea that only one god exists. God is simultaneously present in the Temple and in heaven – an important and innovative concept called "name theology." After the review of Israel's history in chapters 1 to 4, there is a restatement of the Ten Commandments in chapter 5. This arrangement of material highlights God's sovereign relationship with Israel prior to

1677-465: The northern kingdom of Israel , makes frequent references to the Exodus, the wilderness wanderings, a covenant, the danger of foreign gods and the need to worship Yahweh alone. This discrepancy has led scholars to conclude that these traditions behind Deuteronomy have a northern origin. Whether the Deuteronomic Code was written in Josiah's time (late 7th century BC) or earlier is subject to debate, but many of

1720-400: The provision of information, because this form of advice not only increased decision accuracy but also allowed the decision-maker to maintain autonomy . Methodological advice concerns expert advice on research methodology . This kind of advice is, as opposed to some forms of advising mentioned above, usually initiated by the person who receives the advice, thus not unrequested. The goal of

1763-401: The social sciences in general, and in psychological research in particular, advice has typically been defined as a recommendation to do something. For example, in response to a client's question regarding whether to invest in stocks, bonds, or T-notes, a financial planner (the advisor) might say: "I recommend going with bonds at this time." However, Dalal and Bonaccio (2010) have argued, based on

1806-427: The story of Joshua's conquests could exist without it, at least at the level of the plot. But in both cases there would be a thematic (theological) element missing. Scholars have given various answers to the problem. The Deuteronomistic history theory is currently the most popular. Deuteronomy was originally just the law code and covenant, written to cement the religious reforms of Josiah, and later expanded to stand as

1849-699: The willingness of entrepreneurs to take advice from early investors and other partners (i.e., entrepreneurial coachability ) has long been considered a critical factor in entrepreneurial success. At the same time, some economists have argued that entrepreneurs should not simply act on all advice given to them, even when that advice comes from well-informed sources, because the entrepreneurs themselves possess far deeper and richer local knowledge about their own firm than any outsider. Indeed, measures of advice-taking are not actually predictive of subsequent entrepreneurial success (e.g., measured as success in subsequent funding rounds, acquisitions, pivots, and firm survival).
