Book Synopsis The David Story: A Translation with Commentary of 1 and 2 Samuel by : Robert Alter
Download or read book The David Story: A Translation with Commentary of 1 and 2 Samuel written by Robert Alter and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2009-10-21 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A masterpiece of contemporary Bible translation and commentary."—Los Angeles Times Book Review, Best Books of 1999 Acclaimed for its masterful new translation and insightful commentary, The David Story is a fresh, vivid rendition of one of the great works in Western literature. Robert Alter's brilliant translation gives us David, the beautiful, musical hero who slays Goliath and, through his struggles with Saul, advances to the kingship of Israel. But this David is also fully human: an ambitious, calculating man who navigates his life's course with a flawed moral vision. The consequences for him, his family, and his nation are tragic and bloody. Historical personage and full-blooded imagining, David is the creation of a literary artist comparable to the Shakespeare of the history plays.

Book Synopsis Debating Authority by : Katharina Pyschny
Download or read book Debating Authority written by Katharina Pyschny and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2018-07-23 with total page 365 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Human leadership is a multifaceted topic in the Hebrew Bible. This holds true not only for the final form of the texts, but also for their literary history. A large range of distributions emerges from the successive sharpening or modification of different aspects of leadership. While some of them are combined to a complex figuration of leadership, others remain reserved for certain individuals. Furthermore, it can be considered a consensus within the scholarly debate, that concepts of leadership have a certain connection to the history of ancient Israel which is, though, hard to ascertain. Up to now, all these aspects of (human) leadership have been treated in a rather isolated manner. Against this background,the volume focuses on the different concepts of leadership in the Pentateuch and the Former Prophets. Concepts like "priest", "prophet", "judge", and "king" are examined in a literary, (religious-/tradition-) historical and theological perspective. Hence, the volume contributes to biblical theology and sheds new light on the redaction/reception history of the Pentateuch and the Former Prophets. Not least, it provides valuable insights into the history of religious and/or political “authorities” in Israel and Early Judaism(s).

Download or read book God's Promises written by Jordanis Joseph and published by Word Alive Press. This book was released on 2021-05-15 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The promise of God is like a seed given to a farmer. It must be planted in good soil and well taken care of. Courageously and patiently, with much devotion, that farmer will vigilantly wait, observing his crop day by day without distraction until the harvest comes. We do not believe in God because things look good, but because we must put our total trust in the Lord, whatever the circumstances may be. But what some forgot is that if the presence of the Lord isn’t with His people, the Ark of the Covenant among them is nothing more than a piece of equipment. Walking in obedience to the Lord is an opportunity for those who are devoted to Him to position themselves for victory. Waiting on the Lord is about knowing the God who gives us the understanding to position ourselves to receive the fulfilment of His promises.
