Download or read book Did Adam and Eve Really Exist written by C. John Collins and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2011-05-04 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "We need a real Adam and Eve if we are to make sense of the Bible and of life," argues C. John Collins. Examining the biblical storyline as the worldview story of the people of God, Collins shows how that story presupposes a real Adam and Eve and how the modern experience of life points to the same conclusion. Applying well-informed critical thinking to common theological and scientific questions, Collins asserts the importance of a real man at the beginning in God's plan for creation, a plan that includes "redemption" for all people since sin entered the world. Did Adam and Eve Really Exist? addresses both biblical and Jewish texts and contains extensive appendices to examine how the material in Genesis relates to similar material from Mesopotamian myths. Collins's detailed analysis of the relevant texts will instill confidence in readers that the traditional Christian story equips them better than any alternatives to engage the life that they actually encounter in the modern world.

Download or read book Black God s Kiss written by C.L. Moore and published by Diversion Books. This book was released on 2015-09-22 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Meet “the first lady of sword-and-sorcery, Jirel of Joiry . . . in all her ferocious mailed glory and defiance” in these classic tales from a sci-fi pioneer (Tor.com). Originally published in the legendary magazine Weird Tales in 1934, C. L. Moore’s Jirel of Joiry is fantasy’s first true strong female protagonist, as well as one of the most striking and memorable characters to come out of the golden age of science fiction and fantasy. Published alongside landmark stories by H. P. Lovecraft and Robert E. Howard, the six classic stories included in this volume prove that C. L. Moore’s Jirel is a rival to Conan the Barbarian and Elric of Melniboné, making Black God’s Kiss an essential addition to any fantasy library. “I was looking for tales of dire conflict, hot-blooded honor and impetuosity, leadership and courage—all the qualities that my culture told me were reserved for males . . . what a joy it was to run across Jirel, who at some levels of my soul I longed desperately to be.” —Suzy McKee Charnas, Hugo and Nebula Award–winning author
Download or read book The Greek Life of Adam and Eve written by John R. Levison and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2022-12-05 with total page 1079 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Greek Life of Adam and Eve is a brooding epic that explores experiences of disease, death, and hope through a riveting reinvention of the stories of Adam and Eve, Cain and Abel, and Seth. Now, for the first time, Jack Levison offers the English-speaking world its first comprehensive commentary on this saga. The introduction offers analyses, sweeping in scope and rich in detail, for which no comparable discussions exist in any language. Chapter one details literary character—narrative flow, characters, and reconstructions of literary growth. With consummate clarity, chapter two brings order to the scholarly chaos surrounding Greek manuscripts, Greek text forms, versions (Latin, Armenian, Georgian, Slavonic), and the history of research. Chapter three investigates provenance: external references to the Greek Life and evidence for either a Jewish or Christian origin; Levison demonstrates that arguments for either a Jewish or Christian provenance cannot bear the weight scholars have laid on them. The commentary is equally comprehensive, with far-reaching discussions of the Greek illuminated by the foreground of Jewish scripture and the milieu of ancient Greek and Hebrew literature. With a fresh translation and bibliography.
Download or read book The Conflict of Adam and Eve with Satan written by Michael Gore and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-03-31 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Conflict of Adam and Eve with Satan also known as “The First & Second book of Adam and Eve”, is broken up into two parts or books: Books 1 and 2 begin immediately after the expulsion by God our Father from the Garden of Eden, and ending with the testament and translation of Enoch. Great emphasis is placed in Book 1 on Adam's sorrow and helplessness in the world outside the garden.In Book 2, the "sons of God" who appear in Genesis 6:2 are identified as the children of Seth, and the "daughters of men" as women descended from Cain, who successfully tempt most of the Sethites to come down from their mountain and join the Cainites in the valley below, under the instigation of Genun, son of Lamech. This Genun, as the inventor of musical instruments, seems to correspond to the Biblical Jubal; however he also invents weapons of war. The Cainites, descended from Cain the first murderer, are described as exceedingly wicked, being prone to commit murder and incest. After seducing the Sethites, their offspring become or join with the Nephilim, the "mighty men" of Genesis. 6 who are all destroyed in the deluge of the Great flood of Noah, as also detailed in other works such as I Enoch and Jubilees. The Nephilim were the offspring of the "sons of God" and the "daughters of men" according to Genesis 6:4; and giants who inhabited Canaan according to Numbers 13:33. The term "Nephilim" occurs only twice in The Holy Bible, both in the Torah. The first is Genesis 6:1–4, and immediately before the story of Noah's ark. The second is Numbers 13:32–33, where the Twelve Spies report that they have seen fearsome man like giants in the lands of Canaan.The genealogy from Adam to Noah's sons is given, as in the Gospels, but including also the names of the wives of each of Jesus' ancestors, which is extremely rare. In general, this account begins where the Genesis story of Adam and Eve leaves off. Therefore the two cannot be compared; here we have a new chapter--a sort of sequel to the other. Here is the story of the twin sisters of Cain and Abel, and it is notable that here the blame for the first murder is placed squarely at the door of a difference over Woman. However perhaps the greatest evidence of Devine authenticity of this great “copy” correctly tells us of the number of days in a Solar Year, and that the earth was not flat but round, also that the earth is not the centre of the universe and the sun is the centre and all planets revolve around it… This “Copy” also details the number of planets and states that we have ten planets not nine as we teach today. However in 2005 a new planet was discovered in our Solar System named “Eris” which was discovered by the team of Mike Brown, Chad Trujillo, and David Rabinowitz on January 5, 2005, from images taken on October 21, 2003. These facts puts “The Conflict of Adam and Eve with Satan” un-deniable Holy Spiritual Devine Scripture and should be included in every Holy Bible translation in future times.

Book excerpt: Jock Lewis was supposed to have died in a terrible train crash at Paddington. Minty, his girlfriend, received a letter telling her so. But, curiously, the police haven’t been in touch. And Jock has borrowed all her savings. Zillah also got a letter informing her that her husband, Jerry Leach, was dead. Something about it struck her as suspicious, but she chooses not to mention her doubts to her fiancé, an up-and-coming Conservative Member of Parliament. Fiona, a successful banker, met Jeff Leigh before the Paddington crash. And although he never seemed to have a job, and borrowed money from her, she is utterly devoted to him -- and can’t understand why he suddenly disappeared. As the novel progresses, it slowly becomes apparent how the lives of these women might be connected, and how they may figure into a series of vicious stabbing deaths that have shocked and terrified the citizens of London. With consummate skill, Ruth Rendell pulls the colourful strands of this harrowing story ever tighter, increasing the tension page by page.

Download or read book The First and Second Books of Adam and Eve written by Joseph Lumpkin and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-09-19 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contains Doctor Lumpkin's translation to English of the extracanonical stories describing Adam and Eve after they were cast out of the Garden of Eden. Having lain in a cave in northeast Africa for centuries prior to their discovery, the stories are intended to clarify what became of the first ever man and woman after they succumbed to temptation. Although not considered canon, they have received interest by Biblical scholars who have translated the original Ge'ez into various European languages. We hear the stories of Adam and Eve as they navigate the wilderness and eventually settle down to form a family. Their initial departure is marred by Eve fainting in shock at the landscape before them: God, however, offers encouragement and the pair are able to venture forth into the great unknown. Various other characters of the Biblical canon are introduced - Satan, having followed the pair from the Garden of Eden, attempts to further tempt and lead Adam and Eve astray by promising redemption or an easier life. The challenge of rearing and raising children is also detailed, with the formative years of Cain, Abel and their twin sisters occupying several chapters. Frequently, Adam and Eve consult with God through prayer. The Lord, although still angered by his creation's succumbing to the forbidden fruit upon the free, intervenes multiple times to offer guidance through the hardship. God teaches Adam that the difficulties of hunger, thirst, fatigue and pain are to be a part of life, but in sympathy to Adam's plight offers a bough of figs to ease his way. An intriguing supplement to the Book of Genesis, The First and Second Books of Adam and Eve remains a text of some interest to Biblical scholars and adherents of Christianity.
Download or read book The Lost Book of Adam written by Chris Detherage and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2006-06 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When God created Adam, He did so because mankind had reached a point in its evolution where a messiah was needed to help them reach a higher level of consciousness. After sculpting Adam out of mud, the Big Guy then placed him in Eden and, just to keep him busy, commanded him to name the animals. After that, God more or less abandoned Adam and didn't tell him much of anything else, creating a climate of tension and mistrust between the two that eventually led to Adam getting kicked out of the Garden without knowing what his purpose in life was. Mankind was screwed. At least, that's the way Adam tells it anyway. Lying on his deathbed, Adam decides that the time has come to clear up some of those vicious rumors floating around about how he and Eve were responsible for all the bad things that had happened to mankind since the two were expelled from the Garden. Join Adam as he fills in the gaps of the Genesis story. It's an hilarious adventure filled with bad behavior, fallen angels, rampaging giants, neglectful fathers, rebellious sons, corporate greed, anarchy, violence and just enough sex to be deliciously sinful.
Download or read book The Madness of Adam and Eve written by David F. Horrobin and published by Bantam Press. This book was released on 2001 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 100,000 years ago we became human. A species of clever ape abruptly became something different. Technical, religious, artistic, musical, political, military and criminal abilities emerged and exploded. Rapid changes and murderous brilliance became the predominant features of our world. How did this happen? The first modern humans originated in Africa. From there they migrated over the whole of Eurasia and Australasia. These first humans carried with them the genetic basis of schizophrenia, the only major illness found to the same extent in all racial groups. This universal distribution shows that the disease must have been present before the races separated. Modern evidence shows that families where schizophrenia is present are also exceptionally creative in many different fields. Albert Einstein and James Joyce each had a schizophrenic child. Families with schizophrenia also have more dyslexic and manic-depressive members, more sociopaths and criminals, but also more high achievers in every field. In this radical book David Horrobin draws on his knowledge of medicine, of evolution, of psychiatry, of Africa and of nutrition to generate a startling hypothesis: we are human because some of us are schizophrenic and because a 'touch of schizophrenia' is associated with exceptional skills of many sorts, both good and evil, and with that creativity which defines us and separates us from our nearest primate relatives. His own research, extending this concept, strongly suggests that an effective treatment for schizophrenia, using specific nutrients, may be within our reach. This remarkable theory not only addresses the deepest issues of humanity, but also has the potential to be world-changing in practice, not at some distant future date but within the next decade.
