Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Ancient Hebrew Law of Homicide The law of homicide is an index to certain sides of national character. Where there is a small, powerful class able to monopolize rule and government, the rights of the great mass of common people are weak and ill-assured. In such a society there is much violence. Arrogant and turbulent spirits are in perpetual rivalry, and compete for mastery. The stronger steadily eliminate the weaker. Life is held cheap. The chiefs, who are always risking their own lives, compel their underlings, who have no great stake in the contest, to risk theirs. It is a kind of feudal system, in which each chief is the head of a clan or other organization with whose aid he hopes to retain or to achieve pre-eminence. Out of such a condition the early laws of homicide arise. Clans in juxtaposition are never quite at peace with each other. There may be a kind of truce, but this is liable to be broken at any moment. The murder of a clansman by a member of another clan is casus belli, for the sufficient reason that it weakens the assailed clan. If unpunished, the act tends to be repeated, and this process would, in a relatively short time, bring the weakened clan under subjection to the aggressor clan.

Download or read book Cold Case Christianity written by J. Warner Wallace and published by David C Cook. This book was released on 2013-01-01 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written by an L. A. County homicide detective and former atheist, Cold-Case Christianity examines the claims of the New Testament using the skills and strategies of a hard-to-convince criminal investigator. Christianity could be defined as a “cold case”: it makes a claim about an event from the distant past for which there is little forensic evidence. In Cold-Case Christianity, J. Warner Wallace uses his nationally recognized skills as a homicide detective to look at the evidence and eyewitnesses behind Christian beliefs. Including gripping stories from his career and the visual techniques he developed in the courtroom, Wallace uses illustration to examine the powerful evidence that validates the claims of Christianity. A unique apologetic that speaks to readers’ intense interest in detective stories, Cold-Case Christianity inspires readers to have confidence in Christ as it prepares them to articulate the case for Christianity.

Download or read book A History of the Mishnaic Law of Damages Part 1 written by Jacob Neusner and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2007-04-01 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The history of Jews from the period of the Second Temple to the rise of Islam. From 'A History of the Mishnaic Law of Appointed Times, Part 1' This volume introduces the sources of Judaism in late antiquity to scholars in adjacent fields, such as the study of the Old and New Testaments, Ancient History, the ancient Near East, and the history of religion. In two volumes, leading American, Israeli, and European specialists in the history, literature, theology, and archaeology of Judaism offer factual answers to the two questions that the study of any religion in ancient times must raise. The first is, what are the sources -- written and in material culture -- that inform us about that religion? The second is, how have we to understand those sources in reconstructing the history of various Judaic systems in antiquity. The chapters set forth in simple statements, intelligible to non-specialists, the facts which the sources provide. Because of the nature of the subject and acute interest in it, the specialists also raise some questions particular to the study of Judaism, dealing with its historical relationship with nascent Christianity in New Testament times. The work forms the starting point for the study of all the principal questions concerning Judaism in late antiquity and sets forth the most current, critical results of scholarship.
