Hopefully these are helpful in your study.

Moloch & Chiun were two of the gods of the Ammonites. Rather than offering sacrifices to God, Israel not only worshipped these idols, but also bore them on their shoulders in their wilderness travels.

Revelation.18:23

23 And the light of a candle shall shine no more at all in thee; and the voice of the bridegroom and of the bride shall be heard no more at all in thee: for thy merchants were the great men of the earth; for by thy sorceries were all nations deceived.

On this verse what is meant by "sorceries"?

Thanks,

Amos.5:26

26 But ye have borne the tabernacle of your Moloch and Chiun your images, the star of your god, which ye made to yourselves.

learning to walk in faith is a process GOD s way are higher than our ways and his thoughts than our thoughts (is, 55;9)

This chapter relates to the time of David's struggle against King Saul, at which time the various tribes & others dedicated themselves to David to fight against Saul.

Of the Tribe of Issachar, we read that the two hundred chiefs of Issachar who were faithful to David, are described as those who "understood the times & knew what Israel should do". There are various interpretations to this. 1. these men were politically knowledgeable knowing how to discern & use current events to their advantage. 2. that they were known for their understanding of astronomy & physical science. 3. as men of wisdom, prudence & religious scholarship, they knew that the time had come for David to take over kingship.

It is my opinion that given the background of these remarks about the chiefs of Issachar, it seems likely that their skills in understanding the political situation, with the resources of armed men available to David & knowledge of the Scriptures, these chiefs were able to offer guidance to David concerning the next steps that he should take. One of the first matters of discussion was the returning of the Ark of God, for which Issachar may have taken a lead role.

For us today, as Christians we have the Spirit of Christ in us to give us wisdom & guidance in matters of life, both physical & spiritual. When we read & study God's Word as well, we understand what the Mind & Will of God is. Using this knowledge & help, we are expected to keep abreast with what is going on around us, discerning the times we live in thus being careful in our lives & offer guidance to those without knowledge & seeking. Issachar was ready to advise David - we too should be full of God's Word, ready to share the Truth to others in light of the world's events. Jesus spoke of this in Luke 12:54-57, about those who could accurately forecast the weather, but their knowledge didn't extend to a proper understanding of the Scriptures/Prophets about the coming Messiah.

How do we relate to the son' of issacharin todays world?

Wow its soamazing that the times the men of issachar has change what if we were living it now

the present church today need the tribe of Issachar

It is very imperative for us to know the times,more especially in making decision about fulltime ministry. We turn to blame God,as it was not yet the time

These men were very observant of the time and knew when to act, lesson for our generation to know that the times are no more and we should read the hand writing on the wall that the appointed time of the appearance of the KIng is at hand

I admire the strength, skill and readiness to war by the team. I however agree that without the understanding of the time as did the Issachar,then all would be in vein. I belong to the Issachar,Amen.

And if there be a moment or time in life wher we need to be like them its now To avoid distraction

the men of Issachar were wise and prudent They could discern the politics of their times and knew when and how to act They were visionary knowledgeable and insightful For those who would understand the times God expects that we should be current with the happenings around willing to submit to an inevitable change courageous to yield to new leadership and ready to obey the word of God

The men of Issachar wer prudent wise and discerning They understood the mood of the nation and knew when to act They displayed astute knowledge of politics and current power tussle A
