This book was released on 2009-10-21 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A masterpiece of contemporary Bible translation and commentary."—Los Angeles Times Book Review, Best Books of 1999 Acclaimed for its masterful new translation and insightful commentary, The David Story is a fresh, vivid rendition of one of the great works in Western literature. Robert Alter's brilliant translation gives us David, the beautiful, musical hero who slays Goliath and, through his struggles with Saul, advances to the kingship of Israel. But this David is also fully human: an ambitious, calculating man who navigates his life's course with a flawed moral vision. The consequences for him, his family, and his nation are tragic and bloody. Historical personage and full-blooded imagining, David is the creation of a literary artist comparable to the Shakespeare of the history plays.

Download or read book Find Your Own Mountains written by Paul Samuel and published by . This book was released on 2018-11-02 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do we live a full and satisfying life? How do we know what we can excel at? How do we start believing that we have many options? Find Your Own Mountains is a collection of stories from Paul's travels and exploits which he diarised throughout his life, and which greatly contributed to the discovery of his own capabilities and the formation of his character. He distils the essence of his learnings in a sequence of 18 letters to his daughter, written for her eighteenth birthday, as she embarks on her adult life. But the letters and stories resonate with all of us, regardless of our age and background. There are tales of challenging outdoor adventures alongside accounts of running with the bulls in Pamplona on a hangover, or humorous episodes from his late-teenage gap year tour. Each new situation, whether it was negotiating his way through the wilderness of Canada, being knocked about on the deck of a sailing boat by murderous winds in the South China Sea, trying in vain to fight mosquitoes and leeches in the Borneo jungle, or negotiating a friend's release from a Thai police station after a boozy night in Bangkok as a young lad, leads to another step in self-discovery and the revelation of potential to be explored further. Written in a beautiful, accessible and engaging style, Find Your Own Mountains is a deeply moving, inspirational, philosophically enriching book that might not only help readers live a fuller life but also encourage them to explore the literary works of classical thinkers, other adventurers and poets who greatly influenced its author. In Find Your Own Mountains, Paul Samuel, explorer, businessman and serial successful entrepreneur, shows that the key to finding answers is understanding your character and your potential by actively seeking opportunities to expose yourself to the unfamiliar. Begin with the smallest of steps to open yourself to trying something novel and get out of your comfortable daily routine, and you will be amazed what you can unearth about yourself, and how many doors of new possibilities can open for you.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memorial of Samuel Oakley Vander Poel, A. M., M.D., LL. D Buti touch upon all this only because we cannot but recognize, as we here speak of him to one another, the great and constant and abiding value of the work which be accomplished in his busy and useful life. His own View of it would, I think, have been that God gave him his talents and his oppor tunities and that it was his simple duty -to employ them to the utmost. Any review of his public and professional career, however minute it might be made (and I do not here attempt it), would have little significance, if out of it there did not rise the figure of a strong, brave, earnest, high minded, conscientious, God-fearing man. It is such a man whom we have delighted to know, and whom we love to remember, 'who_se look inspired respect and confidence, whose friendship was a privilege and an incentive, whose example was an inspiration. Not the clearness and vigorof his mind, so much as the nobleness and purity of his character, are what we chiefly recall and dwell upon, as he goes forth from us into the unseen world.
