Download or read book The Rise and Fall of Adam and Eve written by Stephen Greenblatt and published by Random House. This book was released on 2017-09-14 with total page 558 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Selected as a book of the year 2017 by The Times and Sunday Times What is it about Adam and Eve’s story that fascinates us? What does it tell us about how our species lives, dies, works or has sex? The mythic tale of Adam and Eve has shaped conceptions of human origins and destiny for centuries. Stemming from a few verses in an ancient book, it became not just the foundation of three major world faiths, but has evolved through art, philosophy and science to serve as the mirror in which we seem to glimpse the whole, long history of our fears and desires. In a quest that begins at the dawn of time, Stephen Greenblatt takes us from ancient Babylonia to the forests of east Africa. We meet evolutionary biologists and fossilised ancestors; we grapple with morality and marriage in Milton’s Paradise Lost; and we decide if the Fall is the unvarnished truth or fictional allegory.

Download or read book Ladies and Gentlemen The Bible written by Jonathan Goldstein and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2009-04-07 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A hilarious re-imagining of the heroes of the Old Testament for a modern world-and the neurotic, demanding reader. In the beginning...there was humor. Sure, it's the foundation for much of Western morality and the cornerstone of world literature. But let's face it: the Bible always needed punching up. Plus, it raised quite a few questions that a modern world refuses to ignore any longer: wouldn't it be boring to live inside a whale? How did Joseph explain Mary's pregnancy to the guys at work? Who exactly was the megalomaniacal foreman who oversaw the construction of the Tower of Babel? And honestly, what was Cain's problem? In Ladies and Gentlemen, the Bible!, Jonathan Goldstein re-imagines and recasts the greatest heroes of the Bible with depth, wit, and snappy dialogue. This is the Bible populated by angry loners, hypochondriacs, and reluctant prophets who fear for their sanity, for readers of Sarah Vowell and the books of David Sedaris. Basically, a Bible that readers can finally, genuinely relate to. Jonathan Goldstein's new book, I'll Seize the Day Tomorrow, will be available May 2013.

Download or read book The Case for Lilith written by Mark Biggs and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2010-03-24 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The legend of Lilith is undoubtedly the most fantastic of all ancient rabbinic myths. According to lore, God created her from dust alongside Adam. However, Lilith was a failed mate. She was not animated by the breath of God like Adam. Rather she was preemptively animated by a Satanic mist which erupted from the ground. Lilith rebelled against Adam and became the infamous Serpent who deceived Eve and caused Adam to fall. Therefore, God established eternal enmity between the Serpent Lilith and Eve and between their seed. Lilith's seed would bruise the heel of Eve's promised seed, Messiah, but Eve's seed would revive to crush Lilith’s head. This book reveals 23 Biblical evidences that prompted ancient rabbis to conclude the various elements of Lilith's legend. It also explains how her legend is completely consistent with traditional Judaic / Christian teachings on the Bible's redemptive message. Her legend solves many ancient Biblical mysteries, such as why the Serpent bears seed like Eve.

Download or read book Blessed are the Bored in Spirit written by Mark Hart and published by Franciscan Media. This book was released on 2006 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: My image of God the Father, enthroned in heaven in flowing white robes and Birkenstock sandals, was overshadowed by my certainty that he didn't want me to have any fun. God was all about rules.--from Chapter Five Too many young Catholics experience their faith as Mark Hart did: They rarely miss Mass even if they don't understand it; they have a Bible even if they never read it; they go to confession even if they aren't particularly repentant. Is that your experience of Catholicism? Is yours a faith of Thou Shalt Nots? If so, forget about a dreary life of mindless obedience to rules you don't understand. It's time to enter into the transforming light of your Creator who invites you to live from the still center of his undying love. The author's humorous and hard-hitting reflections drive home the point that God isn't calling the reader to be a good person--someone who merely obeys the rules--but a new person in Jesus Christ. The audio edition of this book can be downloaded via Audible.

Download or read book I Adam written by John M. Cimbala and published by . This book was released on 2017-07-11 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This novel is based on the Bible's account of Adam, the first man who ever lived. It is written as an autobiography, as if written by Adam himself. Adam looks back at his life from his creation to old age, including his relationship with The Creator (God), naming the animals, the creation of Eve, his time with Eve in the Garden of Eden, their temptation and fall (sin) and expulsion from Eden, and then life after Eden (Cain and Abel, generations, the increase of wickedness) until shortly before his death. This book can be considered Biblical fiction, with some embellishment of course, but without straying from or changing the account recorded in Genesis. It is a love story between Adam and Eve, whom Adam says is "bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh." It is also an educational tool for understanding our first parents, their interaction with The Creator, marriage, and the promise of the "Special Seed" who is Jesus Christ, the Last Adam. Throughout the book are prayers of Adam as he reflects on his life, his sin, his guilt, and his longing for the Special Seed who will accomplish what Adam failed to accomplish on earth. The author writes from a young earth creationist viewpoint, which includes acknowledgment of a literal Adam and Eve who were the first man and woman, and from whom all human beings have descended.The author, Dr. John M. Cimbala, is Professor of Mechanical Engineering at Penn State University. He has co-authored several textbooks, including a popular Fluid Mechanics textbook that is used around the world and has been translated into several languages. This little book about Adam, however, is his first novel.
