Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Hagar's Hoard I was reading a piece in the Commercial Appeal the other day about their finding $60,000 in greenbacks in an old miser's house, some of it in those little old green shin-plasters that go back to Civil war time. And I showed it to my wife, and we smiled a little, and then grew sober right away again; for it set us thinking of my Uncle Athiel Hagar, the miser, and the Yellow Fever Year of 1878. It was on a Tuesday that the Fever came. I remember it because it was the day after rent day, the last Monday that my Uncle Athiel ever gathered up his rents from his negro tenements. I can see him now, driving into the black alley that still August evening - his high, frail, old, mud-stained buggy swaying and lurching on that old wretched roadway; and Dolly, the old horse, wet and soapy from the hot weather. And my Uncle, there on the worn and shiny seat, in his linen duster; and the little old brown satchel for his collections in between his feet. Every man and boy and nigger in the town knew the rig - the clay-stained, old, high buggy, with its paint checking off, and the little clay-colored man, with his bright, black eyes, and his lame leg a little extended; and the battered little handbag that brought back his nigger rents on Mondays. "Old Grum," they called him, or "Grummit" - behind his back, but never to his face. I went to take the horse and unharness it.

Download or read book Jewish Writings of the Second Temple Period written by Michael E. Stone and published by Fortress Press. This book was released on 1984-01-01 with total page 736 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume describes that part of the rich literary production of ancient Judaism which was not contained in the Hebrew Bible nor in rabbinic literature. These writings originated in the Second Temple period, which proved highly creative in the midst of strong external influences and internal movements.Prime example are the Dead Sea Scrolls, documents of an extremely separatist sect. Their discovery in 1947 revolutionized our understanding of Second Temple Judaism and its literature. The scrolls appear more or less related in spirit to a group of writings trasmitted by Christianity and known as the Pseudepigrapha. Yet another group are the Apocrypha, closely related to later biblical writings and incorporated within the Greek Old Testament. Finally, the encounter with Greek culture is documented by Jewish authors writing in Greek, notably Philo and Josephus.After a historical outline which sets the stage, the chapters of this book describe and analyse these documents. Selective bibliographies for further reading conclude the chapters.
