Not illustrated. 1910 edition. Excerpt: ... chapter vii the fight At the earliest signs of daybreak, when I had scarce been in bed an hour, we were roused out to heave up; and we gained the deck just in time to see the sun appear, like a gigantic red beacon, looming through the white mist. Almost immediately the air, which had been miasmatic and chilly, began to grow warmer, until at last the temperature became that of a hothouse. And, as the sun put forth his strength, the wreaths of vapour overhead gradually thinned away. Our first sight of the outer world was the tugboat's top hamper; then, here and there, a few of the highest palms ashore began to show. Slowly the view opened; the jungle seeming to rise out of the grey thickness abeam as if it had suddenly started to grow, like Jack's beanstalk. Meanwhile there was something closer at hand, something aboard, which drew everyone's attention and wonder. For, in the grey morning light, the Benares appeared as if transformed into a gigantic cobweb, which, with a fairylike beauty, sparkled with countless tiny globules of moisture. During the night millions of invisible spiders must have been at work, weaving their gossamer threads over everything, till the vessel showed like a phantom barque, covered from deck to truck with a silken netting. As the sun burst through the fog-bank these threads, with their clinging beads of water, underwent a wonderful transformation, for every ray and beam of light became reflected, until the whole fabric of the Benares glowed a warm pink, as if her rigging had been suddenly painted a brilliant rose-madder by a multitude of unseen spirits. Beautiful as the sight was, it did not please Zack Slaughter, for I heard him telling the bosun that both the fairy cobwebs and the vivid colouring of the sunrise...

Download or read book On Prophets Warriors and Kings written by George J. Brooke and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2016-05-10 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While recent decades have seen a plethora of studies exploring the complex processes that shaped biblical books traditionally designated as Prophets, much remains to be done in order to uncover the rich history of their interpretation throughout the ages. This collection of essays aims at filling this gap by exploring different aspects of the exegesis of the Former and Latter Prophets in contexts both ancient and modern, Jewish and Christian. From the inner-biblical interpretation of the Prophets to the Dead Sea Scrolls, Apocrypha and Pseudepigrapha, the New Testament, Patristic writings, and contemporary rhetoric, this volume sheds light on how key figures in those books were read and understood by both ancient and not so-ancient readers.

This book was released on 2022-05-01 with total page 775 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Primarily based on the genetic findings, backed by the archeological, historical, linguistic facts and testimonies of the ancient scholars, historians, and geographers, this work brings a fresh perspective into a stagnated view of the Turkic nations and their past.

Download or read book The Qumran Con written by Raphael Golb and published by Archway Publishing. This book was released on 2024-06-17 with total page 465 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why did Professor Norman Golb of the Oriental Institute need to be silenced? Why did a small clique monopolize access and publication rights to the Dead Sea Scrolls for more than four decades? Why does the truth matter about where the scrolls came from? In this documented memoir, Raphael Golb exposes the inside story of the Dead Sea Scrolls controversy and its scandals. He describes how he himself became involved in the controversy—and ended up fighting to stay out of Rikers Island. For over seventy years, the true historical significance of the scrolls has been obscured by the institutional influence of a threatened scholarly establishment. Never were the stakes made clearer than when powerful Manhattan DA Robert Morgenthau took action to protect the reputation of well-connected scroll figures, both in New York and across the United States. Raphael Golb’s memoir of his journey through the system—in a case that almost reached the Supreme Court—poses the question of where we stand with the First Amendment today. While reigniting the great debate over who wrote the scrolls, Golb’s account also sheds light on broader issues involving academic revolutions, censorship, and how easily power can be abused in a democratic society. “Institutions and museums, international conferences and books may ostracize the scholar who transmits a new message ... A crisis emerges ... Eventually ... the new paradigm gradually gains adherents and replaces the old.” — Joel Kraemer (2012 essay on Norman Golb)
