Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “My dear children, I write this for you in case your dear children or grandchildren come to you one of these days, knowing nothing of their family. For this reason I have set this down for you here in brief, so that you might know what kind of people you come from.” These words from the memoirs Glikl bas Leib wrote in Yiddish between 1691 and 1719 shed light on the life of a devout and worldly woman. Writing initially to seek solace in the long nights of her widowhood, Glikl continued to record the joys and tribulations of her family and community in an account unique for its impressive literary talents and strong invocation of self. Through intensely personal recollections, Glikl weaves stories and traditional tales that express her thoughts and beliefs. While influenced by popular Yiddish moral literature, Glikl’s frequent use of first person and the significance she assigns her own life experience set the work apart. Informed by fidelity to the original Yiddish text, this authoritative new translation is fully annotated to explicate Glikl’s life and times, offering readers a rich context for appreciating this classic work.

Download or read book Money in the Streets written by Barry Habib and published by Savio Republic. This book was released on 2020-10-27 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A never-ending testament of how overpowering negative forces leads to living our greatest potential. Money in the Streets is more than one man’s journey in hard-knocks New York. It’s more than the recounting of risking it all to win. Told with heart and laced with the sentiment of tremendous gratitude, Barry Habib deftly weaves tales of his upbringing to take the reader back in time. From his childhood, where he’d pick up the discarded toys of other children because he had so few of his own to play with on into the sales world, where Habib got creative as a sort-of street vendor, Money in the Streets blends humor and hardship through the incredulous moments of Habib’s life. He wrote this book to answer a compulsion to share what worked for him as he scaled the ladder—creating multiple successful companies, growing into an international speaker, and frequenting major media networks as well as producing various entertainment productions—most notably as the driving force and lead producer of one of the longest-running shows on Broadway (later made into a film): Rock of Ages. Habib offers his life as proof that you can keep going no matter what. He shares some of his most painful memories while also exulting in personal and business triumphs to encourage everyone to aim for the same. Of particular note are the mindset tactics in Money in the Streets that are road-tested and personal practices of Habib, who treats each day as a reason to be thankful. No matter the struggle, whether self-doubt, negativity, loss, stress, or being “stuck” in life, Money in the Streets is a resolution roadmap. An easy read that will play on the reader’s every emotion, this standout work and Habib’s voice are unforgettable. He writes as if you are the only person in the room…because to Habib, you are.

Book excerpt: "The Mammoth's Extraordinary Quest: A Tale of Friendship and Freedom" The summary of this story: Max, the last mammoth, goes on a journey in the vast wilderness that is full of excitement, friendship, and the search for the extraordinary. Excited and interested, he finds a plan that leads to the mythical Dragon's Lair. Max meets different animals along the way who tell him about the dangers ahead, but he doesn't change his mind. Max moves forward with the map in his trunk, facing dangerous barriers and working hard to get past them. He walks across a rickety bridge, climbs tall mountains, stays in hot areas, and solves difficult problems. Max's kind nature shines through as he makes friends with animals like the wise owl, the friendly camel, a family of mountain goats, and an old, wise turtle. Max gets to the huge stone door that protects the entrance to the Dragon's Lair. Max uses his intelligence and wit to figure out the questions written on the door, which lets him into the dark and scary cavern inside. To his surprise, he finds Ember, a beautiful dragon who is being held prisoner by a sorceress's spell. Max approaches Ember with kindness and interest, and as they talk about their lives and share stories, they become friends. Max and Ember are driven by their friendship to try something new to break the enchantress's spell. With the help of a wise old tortoise, they face problems, trick mischievous pixies, find their way through underground mazes, and avoid deadly plants. With the help of the enchantress, the group finds a magical amulet hidden in a fortress. This lets Ember go free. Ember's royal wings spread out, and he feels free as he flies into the wide sky. Max is amazed as Ember does dangerous acrobatics against the sky at dusk, leaving lines of sparks behind her. Their trips teach them how important it is to make friends, be kind, and look for the unusual. As Max and Ember keep exploring the world, their amazing friendship inspires other people. They stand up for nature and share stories, jokes, and information with the people they meet. Their amazing friendship becomes a timeless story of strength, unity, and the changing power of love that will live on long after they are gone. Max and Ember come back to the Dragon's Lair in their old age to think about their amazing journey. With thankful hearts and a shared sense of success, they take in the beauty of their memories and walk off into the sunset, leaving a legacy of inspiration and the enduring power of friendship in the hearts of everyone who hears their amazing story. How the story began: Once upon a time, Max, a kind and friendly giant, lived in a faraway land. Max was the last of his kind. He was a beautiful mammoth who roamed the vast desert with a warm heart and an insatiable curiosity. With each step, his big, padded feet left marks in the rich soil, showing his way through the wild land he called home. Even though the world around him had changed, Max never stopped looking for new adventures and deep connections with other people. He wanted to go into places no one had been before and see the secret wonders that lay beyond the horizon. Max liked to roam, but he also wanted friends because he knew the power and pleasure of having friends. He woke up every morning hoping to meet new friends with whom he could laugh, tell stories, and talk about memories that were important to him. Max wandered around with an unbreakable spirit, his big tusks proudly pointing to the sky, whether he was in a snow-capped mountain, a lush forest, or a quiet field. His eyes, full of gentle wisdom, looked out over the horizon, always on the lookout for possible friends. Max's appearance in the wilderness was a reminder of how grand and beautiful the world used to be, as well as a sign of how strong and determined his species is. Max continued his journey with his heart wide open and his trunk held high, ready to embrace the wonders that awaited him. He traveled through the vast wilderness in search of new adventures and friends who could share in the wonder of his life. Max was walking through an old, thick forest with his big feet crushing on dead leaves when he came across an unexpected treasure: a worn map with a lot of detail. It looked like the thin parchment told stories of danger and mystery. Max's eyes got very big as the map came out of his long trunk. It told everyone how to get to the famous Dragon's Lair, which got everyone excited. Legends and stories had been told about the lair, which was where dragons with golden scales and the ability to breathe fire lived, for many years. Max's heart was beating fast with a mix of joy and fear because he knew this trip would be special. The map was written in faded ink and had symbols that were hard to understand. It pointed to uncharted territory and hid risks. It said that Max would have to show how strong and determined he was, and that the trip would push him to his limits. Still, he was attracted to the unknown. As his trunk traced the fine lines and muttered secrets of the map, he could feel the excitement of the adventure he was about to go on. Max's heartbeat with the wonder of a child, and he knew he had to go on this amazing trip. His spirit yearned to find out what was hidden in the Dragon's Lair and maybe make a new friend along the way. He got excited just thinking about dragons with wings that could reach the sky and fire that danced on their mouths. As Max looked at the map's fine details, he thought about the problems he might face strange woods, dangerous mountains, and maybe even mythical beasts that guarded the lair. Even though the lair was dangerous, he thought about the chance of making friends and finding hidden beauty. Max set out on his amazing journey with a new sense of purpose. Once a safe place to live, the dense forest turned into a doorway to the unknown. Max used the directions on the map to find his way through the tall trees and winding trails. The air around him buzzed with excitement, and the leaves' rustling told him secrets from long ago. As he went deeper into the bush, the shadows got longer and the air got thicker, giving him a feeling of danger. When Max got to the Dragon's Lair, it seemed like the forest took a deep breath. His beating sounded like thunder in the distance, and each step he took brought him closer to a magical and dangerous world. Max's trip showed how curious he was, how strong he was, and how much he believed in the power of great bonds. This dangerous journey would not only bring him face to face with legendary dragons, but it would also show him how brave he was and how much magic was in his heart. Max moved forward with the map in his hand. His heart was full of energy, and he couldn't wait to face the unknown and write his name into the Dragon's Lair legends. Max went on a dangerous journey to find the Dragon's Lair, keeping the valuable map hidden in his trunk. As he went deeper into the woods, the air took on a mix of fear and excitement. Max met a lot of different animals on his way, and each one gave him their own advice and warnings about the risks that lay ahead. As Max got closer, the wise owl, which was perched high in the trees, hooted in a serious way. Its eyes shone with old knowledge as it spoke: "Be careful, Max. The dragon is fierce and smart, and its lair is hidden and full of traps and hidden dangers. Max's eyes showed both respect and determination as he nodded appreciatively. He knew the owl's words of caution were wise, but the fire within him kept him moving forward despite the dangers. Keep your eyes open and trust your gut. The lair has many secrets, but you'll need a sharp mind to figure them out." Max listened carefully and understood that courage alone would not be enough to get him through the next challenges. He thanked the fox for its advice and silently promised to follow it as he went on. But keep in mind that there are possibilities within the risks. Stay true to your kind heart and show the dragon how kind you are. Maybe, just maybe, a friendship can be made in the middle of all the trouble." Max smiled at the squirrel's words, grateful for the reminder that kindness and compassion could lead to unexpected places. He knew that bravery could come in many forms, and that his gentle nature could be the key to a different kind of adventure in the Dragon's Lair. Max continued his journey with a strong will and a heart full of fear and excitement. He was ready to face the dangers and test his mettle in the Dragon's Lair, and the warnings of his friends were always in the back of his mind as a reminder of the risks and rewards that lay ahead. As Max traveled further along his path, he met Terrance, a wise old tortoise who had lived in the wilderness for many years. The dragon is a scary creature. Its scales are as hard as stone, and its breath is so hot that it can burn the ground. But don't let fear take over, because the dragon is guarding riches beyond your wildest dreams, things that are very wise and interesting. Max's eyes lit up with a mix of reverence and curiosity as he listened to Terrance. He knew that the risks and potential rewards were both big. Terrance's wise words reminded him that true bravery is shown in the face of danger. You might feel scared when you see the dragon but remember that you are strong. Protect what you care about and count on your own strength. May the spirit of the bear help you get through the hard times that are coming." Max felt a surge of gratitude for the bear's advice, which made him realize that he would need his own strength and resolve to face the challenges of the Dragon's Lair. When faced with adversity, he vowed to stay true to his beliefs and draw on his inner strength. With each step, Max's resolve grew stronger thanks to the advice and wisdom of the owl, the fox, the squirrel, the tortoise, and the bear. Max took a deep breath as the cool breeze brushed against his fur. He was ready for the challenges ahead, sure that his determination, intelligence, and the knowledge of his animal friends would get him through. As he continued his hard journey, Max's path led him to a mighty river whose rushing waters crashed against huge boulders with a deafening roar. The only way across was a rickety, narrow bridge that swayed dangerously with every gust of wind. However, Max's desire to reach the Dragon's Lair outweighed any hesitation. He approached the shaky bridge with unwavering determination and crossed it. Max reached out with his trunk to touch the old ropes that held up the bridge. He wanted to turn back, but the Dragon's Lair, with its promise of adventure and discovery, made him want to keep going. Max's excitement grew with each passing second, just like the landscape before him. The once dense forest had been replaced by a rocky landscape with towering cliffs and hidden caverns. A mist of ethereal substance floated through the air, carrying with it the echoes of long-forgotten legends. The change from what he knew to what he didn't know filled him with both excitement and awe for the wonders that lay ahead. Max pushed through the rough terrain, his huge body moving over the rocks with a grace that belied his size. With each step, the Dragon's Lair's vastness became clearer, and Max's spirit grew with awe, curiosity, and respect.

Download or read book Family and Household Religion written by Rainer Albertz and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2014-05-30 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is the most recent collective contribution of a group of biblical scholars and archaeologists who are engaged in an ongoing debate about the nature of family and household religion in ancient Israel and its environment. It is intended to complement the volume Household and Family Religion in Antiquity, edited by John Bodel and Saul M. Olyan, which grew out of a conference held at Brown University in 2005 on household and family religion in the ancient Mediterranean world, with an emphasis on cross-cultural comparison. Several meetings after the Brown conference carried the theme forward, and a fourth meeting at Westfälische Wilhelms-Universität Münster in April 2009 emphasized theoretical and methodological challenges facing scholars of household and family religion (e.g., the conceptualization of family/household religion, the problem of identifying pertinent artifacts, and the difficulties inherent in using texts together with material evidence). This volume is a direct outgrowth of the Münster meeting. For both the meeting and the volume, the goal was to bring together a group of specialists in biblical studies, epigraphy, and archaeology who would utilize a variety of humanistic and social-scientific approaches to the data and would also be willing to engage in dialogue and debate; during the conference in Münster, there was much vigorous intellectual engagement. The essays published here reflect the energy of that conference and will contribute, both individually and collectively, to the advancement of our knowledge of Israelite family and household religion.
