eternity a new king of the Jews was entering the scene
3
and at this point in the gospel story Jesus parents
4
because of King Herod were on the run for their lives now
5
when they had departed behold an angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream and said
6
Like Judea, Egypt was part of the Roman Empire at that time, but it was beyond Herod's rule and control.
7
Egypt was an imperial province ruled by Augustus, the Roman emperor himself.
8
Jesus and his family likely lived among a Jewish community in Egypt
9
and would have enjoyed a degree of anonymity and separation from Hellenistic culture.
10
Then Herod the Great finally died around March of 4 BC.
11
The Gospels then describe a visitation to Joseph.
12
After Herod died, an angel of the Lord appeared in a dream to Joseph in Egypt and said, Get up, take the child and his mother,
13
and go to the land of Israel, for those who were trying to take the child's life are dead.
14
So he got up, took the child and his mother, and went to the land of Israel.
15
But when he heard that Archelaus was reigning in Judea in place of his father Herod, he was afraid to go there.
16
Having been warned in a dream, he withdrew to the district of Galilee, and he went and lived in a town called Nazareth.
17
So was fulfilled what was said through the prophets, that he would be called a Nazarene.
18
We'll be right back.

Betrekkelijke bijzinnen who / which + zin — extra informatie over een persoon of dingthose who were

Uitspraak om op te letten

  • De klanken “sh” en “zh”: separation /ˌsɛp.əˈɹeɪ.ʃən/, visitation /ˌvɪzɪˈteɪʃən/

  3. Neem jezelf op en vergelijk met het origineel; let daarbij op woorden als angel, province, exit.

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?

Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
