Download or read book Covenant written by Baruch Battelstein and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Book of Daniel in the Tanach (Bible) speaks of a time when the 4th kingdom, which has already come upon the earth, will be revived and arise to a place of pre-eminence over all nations. From this 4th kingdom the evil leader will come forth to rule and reign over the whole world for a short time. (Time, two times and half a time or 3 ½ years). What we now see and experience as evil and violence is but a foretaste to the time of the rule and reign of the evil leader of the 4th kingdom yet to come upon the earth. The pages within this book unveil much detail regarding world events, some of which have already occurred, others of which have been in the making for years and are about to become a full reality. Spiritual discernment and understanding of these world events and how they are being woven together by the hand of G-d are essential in order to give one a clear view of the larger picture regarding the rise and the destruction of this 4th kingdom. Before the Messiah Himself comes to destroy this 4th kingdom and its evil leader, G-d will, in His sovereignty, use this 4th kingdom to fulfill His purposes of judgment, both upon the nations and with His chosen people, the Jews. The connections between the written word of the Lord G-d and the documented course of events taking place in the world today, revealed within this book, will not leave any doubt of G-d's intentions of His heart-the redemption of His people.

Download or read book The New Testament and Criticism written by George Eldon Ladd and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 1967 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One unfortunate consequence of the bitter fundamentalist-modernist controversy which raged in the early twenties has been the strongly negative attitude toward Biblical criticism assumed by some of the successors to the fundamentalists of the 1920s. Such people, according to the author, insist that the critical method is basically hostile to the evangelical faith, and they have continued to oppose any use of it. Others, however, claiming the same heritage, believe that the orthodox interpretation of the Gospel can be defended positively and constructively only with the aid of a sound critical method and the results of critical scholarship. The author believes that an evangelical Biblical criticism is not only possible but necessary. The central thesis of his book is that "the Bible is the Word of God given in the words of men in history", and as such its historical origins must be reconstructed as far as possible. In this way a richer understanding of the Scriptures can be achieved.

Download or read book The Dead Sea Scrolls written by Dr. Peter W. Flint and published by Abingdon Press. This book was released on 2013-02-01 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1947, a Bedouin shepherd literally stumbled upon a cave near the Dead Sea, a settlement now called Qumran, to the east of Jerusalem. This cave, along with the others located nearby, contained jars holding hundreds of scrolls and fragments of scrolls of texts both biblical and nonbiblical—in Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek. The biblical scrolls would be the earliest evidence of the Hebrew Scriptures, or Old Testament, by hundreds of years; and the nonbiblical texts would shed dramatic light on one of the least-known periods of Jewish history—the Second Temple period. This find is, quite simply, the most important archaeological event in two thousand years of biblical studies. The scrolls provide information on nearly every aspect of biblical studies, including the Old Testament, text criticism, Second Temple Judaism, the New Testament, and Christian origins. It took more than fifty years for the scrolls to be completely and officially published, and there is no comparable brief, introductory resource. Core Biblical Studies fulfill the need for brief, substantive, yet highly accessible introductions to key subjects and themes in biblical studies. In the shifting tides of biblical interpretation, these books are designed to help students locate relevant meanings in conversation with the text. As a first step toward substantive and subsequent learning, the series draws on the best scholarship in order to provide foundational concepts and contextualized information on a broad scope of issues, methods, perspectives, and trends.

Download or read book Understanding the Bible written by Stephen L. Harris and published by WCB/McGraw-Hill. This book was released on 1992 with total page 514 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1854, Victorian miners fought a deadly battle under the flag of the Southern Cross at the Eureka Stockade. Though brief and doomed to fail, the battle is legend in both our history and in the Australian mind. Henry Lawson wrote poems about it, its symbolic flag is still raised, and even the nineteenth-century visitor Mark Twain called it "a strike for liberty".Was this rebellion a fledgling nation's first attempt to assert its independence under colonial rule? Or was it merely rabblerousing by unruly miners determined not to pay their taxes?In his inimitable style, Peter FitzSimons gets into the hearts and minds of those on the battlefield, and those behind the scenes, bringing to life Australian legends on both sides of the rebellion.
