Download or read book Time Travel to the Old Testament written by Christopher Sinkinson and published by P & R Publishing. This book was released on 2014-06 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While both the Old and New Testaments are part of our Christian heritage, the Old Testament can feel particularly foreign and mysterious. Its violence is startling, its heroes flawed, its history complex, and its locations a far cry from Kansas. While no one needs to become an archeological expert to grasp the message of Scripture, background information can deepen our appreciation and understanding as we read. In this wide-ranging, lively introduction to the world of the Old Testament, Sinkinson gives an overview of storytelling techniques, laws, people, beliefs, and geography, removing misunderstandings by putting details in their historical context.

Download or read book Evidence of Time Travelers in the Bible written by Albert Douglas and published by Tate Publishing & Enterprises. This book was released on 2015-05-26 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The concept of time travel - traveling through time to the past or to the future as one travels through space - is utterly mind-bending. Therefore, the assertion of this book, that there is scriptural evidence of time travelers in biblical times, is an assertion that most people will find terribly strange and even shocking. But if you truly believe that, at times, truth can be stranger than fiction, you will read this book with an open mind, willing to search for the truth by examining the evidence yourself. As people of faith, if we affirm our belief that what is impossible for man is possible for God, then we should at least consider the proposition that what is theoretically possible for man has already been accomplished by God. In light of the noteworthy body of evidence in the Bible pointing to time travel, there seems to be a good probability that God has already accomplished what scientists believe to be theoretically possible.

Download or read book The Homeric Epics and the Gospel of Mark written by Dennis Ronald MacDonald and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2000-01-01 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this groundbreaking book, Dennis R. MacDonald offers an entirely new view of the New Testament gospel of Mark. The author of the earliest gospel was not writing history, nor was he merely recording tradition, MacDonald argues. Close reading and careful analysis show that Mark borrowed extensively from the Odyssey and the Iliad and that he wanted his readers to recognise the Homeric antecedents in Mark's story of Jesus. Mark was composing a prose anti-epic, MacDonald says, presenting Jesus as a suffering hero modeled after but far superior to traditional Greek heroes. Much like Odysseus, Mark's Jesus sails the seas with uncomprehending companions, encounters preternatural opponents, and suffers many things before confronting rivals who have made his house a den of thieves. In his death and burial, Jesus emulates Hector, although unlike Hector Jesus leaves his tomb empty. Mark's minor characters, too, recall Homeric predecessors: Bartimaeus emulates Tiresias; Joseph of Arimathea, Priam; and the women at the tomb, Helen, Hecuba, and Andromache. And, entire episodes in Mark mirror Homeric episodes, including stilling the sea, walking on water, feeding the multitudes, the Triumphal E

Download or read book Invitations to Abundance written by Alicia J Akins and published by Harvest House Publishers. This book was released on 2022-03-01 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What do the feasts of the Bible reveal about our place in today’s tired world? In short, everything. From Genesis through Revelation, redemptive history is captured through feasts. Through them, God calls his people to commemorate mercy, delight in grace, and commune with him and with each other. In the process, he proves he doesn’t ration his rich, soul-satisfying love toward us but instead lets it overflow. Invitations to Abundance brings to life the festivities described in the Bible and illuminates how relevant they remain in a modern world defined by isolation and disillusionment. When your heart needs encouragement, these wondrous celebrations remind you why, where, and how you can find security, unity, and hope. Each chapter seats us at a unique feast from Scripture—from the well known to the less familiar—and considers how you can respond worshipfully as a partaker of these celebrations. Invitations to Abundance shows you how to reciprocate God’s initiating kindness and what it means to live knowing God’s table is spread before you.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I want you to learn every book of the bible, like I'm doing, and I'll try to make it easy for you. First, these adventures were taken and the stories were written by ten-year-old Tracy Jeanette. You may know her from other adventures. She tours back in time with her gang of animal friends, chaperoned of course by the Old Man. Who in turn is sometimes accompanied by Sklo. If you are not familiar with the Old Man or the gang, it's like this: Somehow, due to a glitchy quirk in space-time, the Old Man returned to our world. I'm guessing because of something he knew how to do when he was still alive. The first time. I'm not a physicist, or much of anything, so I don't know how it works exactly

Download or read book Travel Though the Old Testament written by Thomas L. Hiegel and published by Tlh Creations. This book was released on 2017-08-12 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Travel Through the Old Testament is an engaging survey and reference work in two volumes. The author's first-rate research will be quite informative for Pastors, Teachers, University courses, and any Bible student. It is especially beneficial for the Bible student's first encounter with the Old Testament. The author includes his well known Chronology of Old Testament History, a basic outline of each of the thirty-nine books, Word Depth Studies for key Hebrew words, and his Extended Help Papers in Volume two on such topics as "What is the Day of the Lord," "Angels," "End Time Events," "Seven Hebrew Words of Praise," and "The Indestructible Bible." The method of clarity in presenting a chronological sequence of Old Testament Scriptures is a unique and welcome treatment. The author's treating the books of the Old Testament in the order of the events shows how the Scriptures progressed with God's plan of redemption. The two volumes will be welcomed by teacher and student alike. The book also reflects the author's research in the field of history-his extended help papers of Egypt, Pharaohs, Babylon, Persia, etc. will be of interest to all Bible students. The two volumes are balanced and informative. Volume One includes the author's extensive introduction on topics such as "Why Study the Bible?" "The Three Historical Structures of the Scriptures" and "The Old Testament History of Israel." The times we live in are increasingly filled with biblical illiteracy. Thus, this new work is set forth to increase the student's knowledge of Old Testament history and events. It is well organized and covers the history of God's chosen people as they migrate to, and become established in the Promised Land. Volume Two begins with the wonderful Wisdom and Poetry books and continues as God's people are stirred to return to their chosen land. The volumes serve as both a textbook and home sturdy work for the serious student.
