A Comparison of the Religious Sentiments Found in Akhenaten’s “Hymn to the Sun” and “Psalm 104” of the Hebrew Bible
[ send me this essay ]
This is a 4 page paper comparing the religious sentiments found in the “Hymn to the Sun” and “Psalm 104”. The Egyptian pharaoh Akhenaten (c. 1370 BC) is believed to have greatly changed the religious worship of the Egyptians. In his hymn to the Sun god, “Hymn to the Sun” or “Hymn to Aten”, Akhenaten wrote of the worship of one God, not many, his creation of the universe, the world, darkness and light, the elements of nature and man’s place on earth. This hymn and its religious sentiment was said to have influenced the early Hebrew writings which can be seen in Psalm 104 in the Hebrew Bible. Moses, similar to Akhenaten, prohibited the worship of images by the Hebrews and instead concentrated on the praise of the one God, Yahweh. Psalm 104, using similar language and sentiment, also outlines the one God which created the universe, the world, darkness and light, all the natural elements and man’s place on earth.

Abraham Joshua Heschel
[ send me this essay ]
9 pages in length. The multifaceted value of Abraham Joshua Heschel as both a lifelong advocate of Judaism and champion of human rights can easily be measured by the extent to which the scholar and activist dedicated his life to the betterment of mankind. Born in Warsaw in 1907, Heschel's deep involvement stemmed from the positive influence provided by his devout family headed by Rabbi Moshe Mordecai Heschel, a legend in his own time, as well as rebbe or leader of the Hasidic community. The influence of Hasidic rebbeim served to construct the fundamental direction of Heschel's life, one in which has had extraordinary impact upon the manner by which the Jewish community is perceived, perceives itself and can ultimately elaborate upon its cultural integrity.
