This book was released on 2017-11-10 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Prophets of the Old Testament The first clear instance of prophetic inspiration is found in Deborah, who roused the people of Jahweh to the great battle for independence by the waters of Megiddo.' In her case prophecy is self-forgetful enthusiasm for Jahweh expressing itself in warlike passions - a holy hatred against His enemies that could not be sated till all of them had perished like the arch - foe Sisera, celebrated in a Song of glowing exultation, in which is crystallized the fiery patriotism of the age (judg. But the typical prophets of this early period appear in the bands of religious ecstatics who cross the stage during the stress of the Philistine peril, lashing up their frenzy by the help of music and dance, pouring forth excited sounds, and by the sheer force of spiritual contagion drawing within the circle of their influence a man so sane and prosperous as Saul (1 Sam. X. 5 and in later crises of history sweep through the land on Jahweh's errands. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book The Jewish Prophet written by Michael Shire and published by Jewish Lights Publishing. This book was released on 2002 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An outstanding gift book! An inspiring and enlightening look at the role of the prophet throughout Jewish history--beautifully illustrated. This beautifully illustrated collection of Jewish prophecy features the lives and teachings of thirty men and women. Throughout the ages, they bravely stood up to speak God's message and made a lasting contribution to our understanding of both the human and the Divine. This book also provides an inspiring and informative description of the role each played in their own time--and an explanation of why we should know about them in our time. These inspiring moral and spiritual leaders were critics of the evils of society, rooted out corruption among those in power and provided healing and comfort in times of despair and hardship. They ranged from the biblical prophets through the thinkers and leaders of medieval times to modern-day visionaries and activists. All of these people spoke up bravely against the evils of their day, and were prepared to risk their lives for the sake of truth. The lives and words of these passionate advocates for change are still a source of great inspiration today. Rabbi Dr. Michael Shire introduces their own words by discussing the life and message of each prophet, revealing how much Judaism has contributed to society's moral values. Drawing parallels between the biblical and later prophets, he highlights our ongoing need for men and women to take on the role of the prophet. Illustrated with illuminations from medieval Hebrew manuscripts, The Jewish Prophet is a richly decorated and fascinating collection of inspiration and wisdom; and the only book to gather together prophecy from ancient, medieval and modern times.

He effectively achieves a balance between the objective supernatural and the subjective human situation, and presents a discussion of Amos, Hosea, Isaiah, Micah, Jeremiah, and Habakkuk and their particular challenges and journeys.

Download or read book The Dybbuk written by Morris M. Faierstein and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2024-06-01 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Dybbuk is the first comprehensive study of the historical and kabbalistic sources of the dybbuk phenomenon, from the first recorded case of dybbuk possession in Safed in 1571 onward. Dybbuk possession differs from possession by demons or Satan. Its origin is in the Kabbalistic concept of gilgul (transmigration) for sins that are so grievous that Gehenna is not sufficient punishment, and the soul must therefore wander until expiation is found. The dybbuk can temporarily find refuge in animals or people and can only be exorcised by a Baal Shem, a great kabbalist or expert in Jewish magic. In addition to describing the history and evolution of this concept, The Dybbuk includes English translations of all dybbuk stories discussed in the book, many translated for the first time.
