Book Synopsis Abraham, Isaac, and the Altar of Fire by : Joe S. Amer-I-Can
Download or read book Abraham, Isaac, and the Altar of Fire written by Joe S. Amer-I-Can and published by Proisle Publishing Service. This book was released on 2023-04-15 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How could a loving parent imagine the death of their only child, let alone by their own hands? As a youth, the Old Testament story of Abraham and Isaac was a troubling one for the author of this modern day version. Why would God make such a strange and terrifying demand, unless he was trying to prepare his people for the coming of his own son? It wasn't until he was a renewed Christian at age 53 that the author was blessed to write this story, which may help explain how these Biblical events could have happened. Told through the eyes of Isaac and his young friends, it is a seldom seen glimpse into a Biblical world which eventually explains all the mysteries of life. More importantly, the author now knows that God sacrificed his one and only son so all of us could become his children. Thank you God for making the ultimate sacrifice for us. Greg Litchfield is a born again Christian, husband (wife Dodie), father (Lori, Emily and Katie Rose) and paw paw to six grandchildren. As Joe S. Amer-Ican, he has published two books: The Quiet Revolution (Outskirts Press) and it's About God and the Amer-Ican People (Tate Publishing), from which Abraham, Isaac and the Altar of Fire is excerpted as Chapter 7. After teaching for a short period, he worked in small local government as an administrator for thirty years. Upon retiring, he returned to teaching and working with troubled youth. His positive experience in honest local government warns us that America is in deep trouble unless we rediscover our Judeo Christian heritage and establish term limits for our legislators. He advocates for prayer, The National Council On Bible Curriculum In Public Schools, The Ten Commandments Movement, GOOOH.com (pronounced GO), which is a new method to attract and fund the campaigns of term limited legislators who will compete with the two party system. Invented by Texan Tim Cox (Revolution, Bridgeway Books), GOOOH is already supported by nearly 100,000 patriotic Amer-Icans. Mr. Litchfield also advocates for the Fairtax (fairtax.org). With 60 current sponsors in our House of Representatives, the Fairtax is simple, revolutionary tax legislation which does away with our 70 thousand page tax code and replaces it with an easy to understand national sales tax. 400 of the Fortune 500 Companies surveyed said they would build new plants and facilities in the US if the Fairtax is passed by Congress. This will provide millions of jobs and restore our sick economy

Book Synopsis But Where is the Lamb? by : James Goodman
Download or read book But Where is the Lamb? written by James Goodman and published by Schocken. This book was released on 2013-09-10 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “I didn’t think he’d do it. I really didn’t think he would. I thought he’d say, whoa, hold on, wait a minute. We made a deal, remember, the land, the blessing, the nation, the descendants as numerous as the sands on the shore and the stars in the sky.” So begins James Goodman’s original and urgent encounter with one of the most compelling and resonant stories ever told—God’s command to Abraham to sacrifice his son Isaac. A mere nineteen lines in the book of Genesis, it rests at the heart of the history, literature, theology, and sacred rituals of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. For more than two millennia, people throughout the world have grappled with the troubling questions about sacrifice, authority, obedience, and faith to which the story gives rise. Writing from the vantage of “a reader, a son, a Jew, a father, a skeptic, a historian, a lover of stories, and a writer,” Goodman gives us an enthralling narrative history that moves from its biblical origins to its place in the cultures and faiths of our time. He introduces us to the commentary of Second Temple sages, rabbis and priests of the late antiquity, and early Islamic exegetes (some of whom imagined that Ishmael was the nearly sacrificed son). He examines Syriac hymns (in which Sarah stars), Hebrew chronicles of the First Crusade (in which Isaac often dies), and medieval English mystery plays. He looks at the art of Europe’s golden age, the philosophy of Kant and Kierkegaard, and the panoply of twentieth-century interpretation, sacred and profane, including the work of Bob Dylan, Elie Wiesel, and A. B. Yehoshua. In illuminating how so many others have understood this story, Goodman tells a gripping and provocative story of his own.

Book Synopsis The Actuality of Sacrifice by : Alberdina Houtman
Download or read book The Actuality of Sacrifice written by Alberdina Houtman and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2014-11-27 with total page 494 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sacrifice is a well known form of ritual in many world religions. Although the actual practice of animal sacrifice was largely abolished in the later history of Judaism, Christianity and Islam, it is still recalled through biblical stories, the ritual calendar and community events. The essays in this volume discuss the various positions regarding the value of sacrifice in a wide variety of disciplines such as history, archaeology, literature, philosophy, art and gender and post-colonial studies. In this context they examine a wide array of questions pertaining to the 'actuality of sacrifice' in various social, historical and intellectual contexts ranging from the pre-historical to the post-Holocaust, and present new understandings of some of the most sensitive topics of our time.

Book Synopsis Lorenzo Ghiberti's Gates of Paradise by : Amy R. Bloch
Download or read book Lorenzo Ghiberti's Gates of Paradise written by Amy R. Bloch and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2016-02-09 with total page 874 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the heretofore unsuspected complexity of Lorenzo Ghiberti's sculpted representations of Old Testament narratives in his Gates of Paradise (1425–52), the second set of doors he made for the Florence Baptistery and a masterpiece of Italian Renaissance sculpture. One of the most intellectually engaged and well-read artists of his age, Ghiberti found inspiration in ancient and medieval texts, many of which he and his contacts in Florence's humanist community shared, read, and discussed. He was fascinated by the science of vision, by the functioning of nature, and, above all, by the origins and history of art. These unusually well-defined intellectual interests, reflected in his famous Commentaries, shaped his approach in the Gates. Through the selection, imaginative interpretation, and arrangement of biblical episodes, Ghiberti fashioned multi-textured narratives that explore the human condition and express his ideas on a range of social, political, artistic, and philosophical issues.
Download or read book Abraham written by Charles R. Swindoll and published by Tyndale House. This book was released on 2014-07-16 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When we rewind history back to Abraham’s era, we encounter people who concocted false superstitions to explain the unexplainable. Powerful kings claimed to be gods, building massive pyramids to achieve immortality. Out of this mass of misunderstandings, one man emerged. The man we know today as Abraham not only claimed that one true Creator existed but also staked his entire life on this belief. Why, thousands of years later, are we still discussing the faith of this desert nomad? One of America’s most popular Bible teachers Pastor Chuck Swindoll answers that question and many more in this compelling and insightful biography that will inspire your own faith.

Book Synopsis Child Sacrifice in Ancient Israel by : Heath D. Dewrell
Download or read book Child Sacrifice in Ancient Israel written by Heath D. Dewrell and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2017-05-23 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Among the many religious acts condemned in the Hebrew Bible, child sacrifice stands out as particularly horrifying. The idea that any group of people would willingly sacrifice their own children to their god(s) is so contrary to modern moral sensibilities that it is difficult to imagine that such a practice could have ever existed. Nonetheless, the existence of biblical condemnation of these rites attests to the fact that some ancient Israelites in fact did sacrifice their children. Indeed, a close reading of the evidence—biblical, archaeological, epigraphic, etc.—indicates that there are at least three different types of Israelite child sacrifice, each with its own history, purpose, and function. In addition to examining the historical reality of Israelite child sacrifice, Dewrell’s study also explores the biblical rhetoric condemning the practice. While nearly every tradition preserved in the Hebrew Bible rejects child sacrifice as abominable to Yahweh, the rhetorical strategies employed by the biblical writers vary to a surprising degree. Thus, even in arguing against the practice of child sacrifice, the biblical writers themselves often disagreed concerning why Yahweh condemned the rites and why they came to exist in the first place.
