Book excerpt: When Jesus was resurrected, ancient scripture says many rose from the grave. Today, 36 from this group of undead remain. Known as the Nistarim, they are here to watch over the world. When Judas hung himself, his blood mysteriously gave rise to another group of undead: the unholy Collectors. Now very much alive, they feed on souls and human blood. Both groups of immortals still walk among us in an eternal struggle. Now both are after a single target--a boy named Pavel who may possess the key to the Collectors' unlimited power...or ultimate downfall. Gina, a woman fleeing for her own life, is determined to protect the boy at all costs. She has survived one battle with the undead already, but has no idea how long she'll be able to stay a step ahead of them. The Jerusalem's Undead Trilogy takes readers on a riveting journey, as imaginative fiction melds with biblical and archaeological history.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sometime in the near future, the electrical grid will fail. Communications will cease. Food distribution will grind to a halt. Experts say modern society is just nine meals away from chaos. When the super markets are no longer a source for food, when parents watch their children shivering in the cold, what will happen to people with no idea how to fend for themselves? This is a story about the night it happens, this is a record of the choices they make. Sargent Red Morton is a veteran prison guard, left alone in the world by the tragic deaths of his wife and son. Caught in a spiral of despair, his only remaining family are the young guards who look to him for leadership in a concrete and iron cage housing 2000 of the worst society has to offer. He'll have to pull himself together if he wants to hold on to his spot as leader of the unit. Sy and Kara Bradshaw are a brother and sister team trying to keep their little hunting lodge alive in an economic depression. Only by entertaining and befriending the fabulously wealthy have they survived in a world with little opportunity. But Kara has secrets of her own. She'll have to keep those secrets from driving a wedge among her friends and family. Darwin King is billionaire business man on a hunting trip at the Bradshaw's lodge. There he's joined by three generations of the Casey family, one of his richest and most profitable clients. Together they've built a business empire spanning the globe. This is a special trip, one the elder Casey will use to announce ambitious plans for everyone involved. The night the lights fail, Red and his guards are surrounded in the darkened labyrinth of the prison, trying to find a way to rescue their own and stay alive against drug crazed inmates. Sy and Kara shepherd local townspeople to the safety of their lodge in the woods, away from rampaging inmates escaping the prison by the hundreds. Darwin King aims to help the Bradshaw's survive, and in the meantime find out exactly what his friends the Caseys know about the cause of the catastrophe. They all wait for someone, anyone, to come and help save them. Together, their paths will intertwine in the little town of Mt. Sterling, Illinois on the night of humanity's greatest disaster. As the lights go out on civilization, each will be challenged to survive in a world driven mad by fear of the dark, fear of hunger, fear of the unknown. Those sworn to protect the innocent will forsake them, while common people will arise to perform heroic feats of bravery. Now, at the dawn of darkness, everyone will find out what they're really made of.

Book excerpt: Perfect for fans of The Last Thing He Told Me and A Flicker in the Dark, The Hushed is a haunting paranormal thriller—infused with a dangerous, forbidden romance—that introduces a brand-new type of undead ... Eerie Ashwood may look like a regular college student—she has a job at a local diner and attends classes at the community college—but she’s not. She’s a Hushed, a living secret made of flesh and blood, spawned by the death of a human who had something to hide. While the Hushed blend in among humans, they are haunted by an overwhelming urge to spill their secret to those whom it would hurt the most. But once a Hushed tells their secret, they drop dead. Unlike most Hushed, Eerie and her brother Fabian can’t remember their secrets. All they know is they’re connected to the infamous Ironbark Prison fire, but everything else is a blur of smoke and fear. Everything changes when Eerie meets Logan Winspeare, the hell-raising son of one of the victims of the fire, who is searching for answers about the night his mother died. Eerie knows she should stay far away from both Logan and the mysteries surrounding that night, but she can’t escape her curiosity—or her growing attraction to Logan. But the harder Eerie falls for Logan, the closer she comes to her secret—and her death. And as she uncovers more about her past, Eerie discovers her secret is tied into something even bigger—a tangled history that leads back thousands of years to the very first of her kind, and a covert organization of ancient Hushed who pledged vengeance on the human world.

Book excerpt: His first case as a Seraph marshal may be his last. When Seraph’s head marshal calls in Miles Kim to help investigate a triple murder, Miles finds three bodies with no simple answers.

With no witnesses and no survivors, the case will thrust Miles into the center of a power struggle between the militia and Seraph’s underworld. And no one wants an ex-Meridian police officer prying into their business. Learning the truth will put Miles in the crosshairs of Seraph’s sheriff and the local militia, along with a gang of ruthless cybernetic assassins on the trail of anyone getting close to the answers to what happened that night.

Download or read book A Handbook on Isaiah written by Jan de Waard and published by Eisenbrauns. This book was released on 1997-01-01 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this volume, the first of a projected series on the Hebrew Bible, de Waard aims to give translators better insight into the viewpoint of the textual critic to help them find a good base for translation. Though of primary interest for translators, students and scholars will also be pleased to find that de Waard summarizes the arguments and ratings of the Hebrew Old Testament Text Project. Because the final report of the HOTTP was published in French and was the work of textual critics rather than translation specialists, its valuable contribution was found to have practical limitations. DeWaard's work is also valuable because it examines three major Jewish versions in addition to the Christian versions selected by the Project for study. Future volumes are planned to cover other portions of the Hebrew Bible/Old Testament.

Download or read book Dust or Dew written by Janet K Smith and published by James Clarke & Company. This book was released on 2012-04-26 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Psalm 49's hints about the afterlife would have been clearly understood in the Ancient Near East, but today they are are less obvious. Smith brings together readings from the literature of both ancient Israel and its neighbours to enrich an understandingof Psalm 49 capable of developing the readers comprehension of the concepts of Sheol and redemption for the righteous that represent Israel's unique contribution to beliefs about afterlife. Dust or Dew brings together ancient and modern soteriology that sheds new light on both the Old and New Testaments. The author of Psalm 49 reminds all men and women everywhere that death is inevitable and that all pride turns to ashes and worms. Estates are left behind. Death feeds on the corpse. What happens to the soul is the real thrust of the author's production and the theme of this present exploration. The author painted afterlife with the broadest of brushes. His focus was the pride of the rich, but hints at hope for the righteous.'

Download or read book Jeremiah Baruch written by Pauline A. Viviano and published by Liturgical Press. This book was released on 2016-12-01 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jeremiah grew up in a time of peace and died in exile. He lived to see the temple burned to the ground, Jerusalem destroyed, and his people marched into a foreign land. A reluctant prophet, Jeremiah preached the renewal of the covenant, teaching in parables like Jesus. His God was a God of hope, promise, power, and the will to make the people of Israel a holy people. The book of Baruch deals with the challenges faced by the Jews of the Diaspora who never returned to their homeland. Out of their exile, they became the people of "the book" gathering in their synagogues, studying the law and the prophets, and producing their own inspired sacred literature.

Download or read book Genesis Isaiah and Psalms written by Katherine Dell and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2010-04-06 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Genesis, Isaiah and Psalms are three key texts in the Hebrew Bible and represent the lifelong interests of Professor John Emerton, Emeritus Regius Professor of Hebrew in the University of Cambridge, for whom this volume is written on the occasion of his eightieth birthday. The contributors have all enjoyed academic relationships with John over the years and represent a truly international group. The contributions include comparison of biblical texts with ancient Near Eastern counterparts and evaluation of them in the light of archaeology. They include intertextual work on a literary level, and traditional literary-historical approaches to texts. Many move beyond the Hebrew Bible itself to consider other texts and versions or to draw out interpretations of texts by scholars ancient and modern - and even by novelists. The result is a refreshing group of articles that indicate the broad range of approaches that characterize the discipline of Old Testament study in the present day.
