Download or read book The Old Man s Verses written by Ivan Diviš and published by Host Publications, Inc.. This book was released on 2008 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poetry. Translated from the Czech by Deborah Garfinkle. Adopting the persona of the eponymous Old Man, celebrated Czech poet Ivan Divis (1924-1999) writes of the comfort of memory, the nature of faith and the pain of exile. In this moving chronicle of loss and isolation, Divis transports us through space and time, from the pristine mountain peaks of Tibet to a Prague gutter, and from the Big Bang up to the barbarous century of Hitler and Stalin, right through to the brink of the new millennium and the threshold of his mortal existence. With alternating lines of earthy vulgarity and lyric transcendence, the poems in this moving collection expose the longing, pathos and absurdity of human existence. Available to English-speaking audiences for the first time, THE OLD MAN'S VERSES is a provocative, darkly humorous collection from one of the twentieth century's most extraordinary poets.

Download or read book The Old Man And His God written by Sudha Murty and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 2006-01-01 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As she goes about her work with the villagers, slum dwellers and the common men and women of India, Sudha Murty—writer, social worker and teacher—listens to them and records what they have to say. Their accounts of the struggles and hardships which they have at times overcome, and at other times been overwhelmed by, are put together in this book. There are stories about people’s generosity—and selfishness—in times of natural disasters like the tsunami; women struggling to speak out in a world that refuses to listen to them; and tales of young professionals trying to find their feet as they climb up the corporate ladder. Told simply and directly from the heart, The Old Man and His God is a collection of snapshots of the varied facets of human nature and a mirror to the souls of the people of India.

Download or read book Ephesians Evangelical Exegetical Commentary written by S. M. Baugh and published by EEC. This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his letter to the Ephesians, Paul emphasizes the unity of believers in the inaugurated new creation. He first sets before his audience the salvation freely offered to us through faith in Christ, then applies this truth to their lives, calling them to live lives of love. In this volume, S. M. Baugh approaches this important letter from a first-century perspective, examining ancient sources to determine what Paul's words meant in their ancient context, while also interacting with recent scholarship. The result is a commentary that is academically rigorous and at the same time presents Ephesians as the good news it was meant to be. About the Evangelical Exegetical Commentary Series: The Evangelical Exegetical Commentary series incorporates the latest in critical biblical scholarship and is written from a distinctly evangelical perspective. Each comprehensive volume combines historical and literary explanations with insights for understanding the text within the Bible's larger story and applying it to everyday life.

This book was released on 2022-01-13 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Bible contains the greatest story ever told. It reveals the God of history, who is writing his story through history's events. It tells us about life, and it itself is life. It tells us about Jesus, God's Son, who secured salvation for a lost world two thousand years ago. Maybe you've tried to read the Bible all the way through before and didn't finish. Maybe you need a tool to guide you in your journey. That's what we hope this book will be for you. The Bible is sixty-six books, yet it is one book with one story. It was written over 1,500 years ago, but with one theme--Jesus! The Bible has forty human authors, but one divine author and one central story. It invites us into that story to embrace the life God designed for us. Scripture's Grand Story can help people with little Bible knowledge achieve a basic framework for grasping the Bible's main story. Those with a basic understanding of Scripture will benefit by seeing how each story plays a part in the one central story--Jesus.
