Download or read book The Reshaping of Ancient Israelite History in Chronicles written by Isaac Kalimi and published by Eisenbrauns. This book was released on 2005 with total page 489 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kalimi catalogues and categorizes the techniques by which the Israelite history in Samuel-Kings is reshaped in the biblical books of Chronicles. The chapters of this study consider the various historiographical and literary changes found in the parallel texts of Chronicles. Because about half of the material in Chronicles is available to us in other biblical sources, comparison of the literary and linguistic devices used by the Chronicler are very revealing. Kalimi considers the ways in which the Chronicler has edited the material available to him, addressing such topics as: literary-chronological proximity, historiographical revision, completions and additions, various kinds of parallelism and literary devices, and so on. A handy compendium of the ways in which the Chronicler treated his material by one of the premier scholars working in the field.

Download or read book When the Kings Come Marching In written by Richard J. Mouw and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2002-05-08 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Widely respected for his perspectives on faith in the modern world, Richard J. Mouw has long stood at the forefront of the Christ and culture debate. In When the Kings Come Marching In here revised and updated Mouw explores the religious transformation of culture as it is powerfully pictured in Isaiah 60. In Isaiah 60 the prophet envisions the future transformation of the city of Jerusalem, a portrayal of the Holy City that bears important similarities to John's vision of the future in Revelation 21 and 22. Mouw examines these and other key passages of the Bible, showing how they provide a proper pattern for cultural involvement in the present. Mouw identifies and discusses four main features of the Holy City: (1) the wealth of the nations is gathered into the city; (2) the kings of the earth march into the city; (3) people from many nations are drawn to the city; and (4) light pervades the city. In drawing out the implications of these striking features, Mouw treats a number of relevant cultural issues, including Christian attitudes toward the processes and products of commerce, technology, and art; the nature of political authority; race relations; and the scope of the redemptive ministry of Jesus Christ. The volume culminates in an invaluable discussion of how Christians should live in the modern world. Mouw argues that believers must go beyond a narrow understanding of the individual pilgrim's progress to a view of the Christian pilgrimage wherein believers work together toward solving the difficult political, social, and economic problems of our day.
Download or read book The Jews and the Expansion of Europe to the West 1450 1800 written by Paolo Bernardini and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2001 with total page 600 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jews and Judaism played a significant role in the history of the expansion of Europe to the west as well as in the history of the economic, social, and religious development of the New World. They played an important role in the discovery, colonization, and eventually exploitation of the resources of the New World. Alone among the European peoples who came to the Americas in the colonial period, Jews were dispersed throughout the hemisphere; indeed, they were the only cohesive European ethnic or religious group that lived under both Catholic and Protestant regimes, which makes their study particularly fruitful from a comparative perspective. As distinguished from other religious or ethnic minorities, the Jewish struggle was not only against an overpowering and fierce nature but also against the political regimes that ruled over the various colonies of the Americas and often looked unfavorably upon the establishment and tleration of Jewish communities in their own territory. Jews managed to survive and occasionally to flourish against all odds, and their history in the Americas is one of the more fascinating chapters in the early modern history of European expansion.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Building the ship is the journey that one must travel to establish a real relationship with Jehovah; the true and living self existing God. From the moment we give our lives to God we become members of His family, yet it doesn't end there. Although we have now become members of a multitrillion member family, we must now work our our soul Salvation. We must go on this journey with our father, mother and our siblings. Jesus said, "Who are my mother my brother and my sister? Those who do the will of my father, those are my family members in Christ Jesus. This book will guide you through the process of Spiritual growth in the Lord. It is essential to grow as believers in Christ. We have to become mature men and women of God. Paul said "when I was a child I acted like a child, I spoke as child and I did childish things. But when I became a man I put away child like things." (1 Cor. 13: 11) John the Baptist and our Messiah both grew in statue and favor with God and man. It is imperative that we understand simply becoming a follower of Jesus is not enough. We must grow up into sons, daughters, stewards and teachers of the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ. We have to go from the standpoint of being taught to being teachers. We are co-laborers with the Lord and one another. The bible says that we are to go from faith to faith and from glory to glory We ought to go from strength to strength to confidence in God. So let us take this journey together shall we. It's time to grown in God so that we can grow more in the image and likeness of God.
