In this article descriptions of angelic movement in the Twelfth Song are compared to descriptions of such activity arising from the throne of God in Ezekiel’s vision in Ezekiel 1 and 10, and to that in the Seventh Song as contained in scroll 4Q403. The penultimate Twelfth Song of the Songs of the Sabbath Sacrifice culminates in a more explicit description of angelic messenger activity and in other nuances. The Twelfth Song was intended to be read on the Sabbath immediately following Shavu’ot, when the traditional synagogue reading is Ezekiel 1 and Exodus 19–20. The possible significance for the author of Songs of the Sabbath Sacrifice of the connection between the giving of the Law at Mount Sinai and Ezekiel’s vision where merkebah thrones and seats appear in the plural form is considered in the conclusion

This book provides a systematic account of the deep and rich love that God has for humans. Within this vast theological territory, the objective is to contend for a unified paradigm regarding fundamental issues pertaining to the God of love who deigns to share His life of love with any human willing to receive it. Realizing this objective includes clarifying and defending theological accounts of the following: • how the doctrine of divine love should be constructed; • what God’s love is; • what role love plays in motivating God’s creation and subsequent governance of humans; • how God’s love for humans factors into His emotional life; • which humans it is that God loves in a saving manner; • what the punitive wrath of God is and how it relates to God’s redemptive love for humans; • and how God might share His intra-trinitarian love with human beings. As the book unfolds, a network of nodal issues are examined related to God’s love as it begins in Him and then overflows into the creation, redemption, and glorification of humanity. The result is an exitus-reditus structure driven by God’s unyielding love.

Abstract Introduction/Objective Mount Sinai Hospital has received emergency use authorization (EUA) from the FDA for Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) antibody testing using ELISA. This serological assay detects and titrates the presence of circulating antibodies to COVID-19. Other platforms have aimed to achieve the credentials of the ELISA instrument, including the multiplex assays of Luminex. The platform is known to have a greater throughput (384 wells vs. 96 wells per microplate) and faster processing speed (8 hours vs. 17 hours). Methods Luminex utilizes beads that couple to the same COVID-19 antigens (mRBD and mSpike) which were utilized for the ELISA assay. The beads are read determining the mean fluorescence intensity (MFI). In order to compare the two methods, our study included 61 patients with COVID-19 at Mount Sinai Hospital, to screen and titrate their sera using Luminex, and to correspond the MFI values with the ELISA titers. Results The Luminex assay has achieved the same level of confidence as ELISA. The 61 patients, representing 30 negatives and 31 positives, are consistently identified as such on both platforms. Our data highlights 32% of patients with a low titer (<1:160), 42% of patients with a high titer (1:160 ~ 1:320), and 26% of patients with a very high titer level (>1:320). These titers correlated well with the MFI values. Based on a cutoff of 80,000 MFI, the sensitivity and specificity of the assay is 98% and 85%, respectively, with no overlapping of MFI between positive and negative results. Conclusion Overall, the study has demonstrated that the Luminex is a strong alternative for the ELISA platform. The Luminex highlights the broad dynamic range with no overlapping between positives and negatives. Migration from ELISA to Luminex, a platform with faster and greater throughput, is therefore, highly desirable.

The Mount Sinai Visiting Doctors program, a joint program of Mount Sinai Medical Center’s Departments of Medicine and Geriatrics, is a large multidisciplinary teaching, research, and clinical care initiative serving homebound adults in Manhattan since 1995. Caring for more than 1,000 patients annually, the physicians of Visiting Doctors make more than 6,000 urgent and routine visits each year, making it the largest program of its kind in the country. Services include 24–hour physician availability, palliative care, social work case management, collaboration with nursing agencies, and in-home specialty consultation. The program serves many individuals who have previously received inadequate and inconsistent medical care. Patients are referred by social service agencies, local physicians, and hospitals and are primarily frail older individuals with complex needs. Funded by Mount Sinai and private support, the program serves as a major teaching site for medical, nursing, and social work trainees interested in home-based primary care.

In the Gospel according to St. John it is written that ‘God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have ever-lasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.’ In these familiar words is summed up the message of the Bible as a whole, and of the New Testament in particular. In spite of all that may be said of sin and depravity, of judgment and the wrath of God, the last word is one not of doom but of salvation. The Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ is a Gospel of salvation, of deliverance and redemption. The news that was carried into all the world by the early Church was the Good News of the grace and love of God, revealed and made known in Jesus Christ His Son. In the words of Paul, it is that ‘God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself’.
