Book Synopsis Your God Is a Devouring Fire by : Michael Simone SJ
Download or read book Your God Is a Devouring Fire written by Michael Simone SJ and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2023-07-19 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the ancient Near East, the distinction between the divine realm and the material world was not always clear. In Mesopotamia, statues, kings, and even cultic utensils could become "gods" in their own right. Certain biblical traditions show this idea as well. Yhwh appears as a human during visitations to Abraham and Jacob (Gen 18:1-2 and 32:25-31). Yhwh also can act through objects (Gen 15:17; 1 Sam 5:1-5). This suggests that, in Israel as in Mesopotamia, a distinction between humans and gods was one of status more than ontology. Throughout the ancient Near East, religious literature included motifs that emphasized divine status, such as power, size, wonder-working ability, and the possession of numinous qualities. In Israel, these divine "status symbols" were frequently storm motifs like cloud, precipitation, and fire. Fire was one of the most common, perhaps because, being vivid and powerful, it shared Yhwh's life-giving, transformative, yet dangerous qualities. In certain narratives, fiery motifs accompany an embodied divine presence. At other times, fiery phenomena are the sole perceptible indications of divine presence. As a motif of divinity, fire can symbolize divine agency even functioning at a distance from Yhwh or shared with a secondary agent like an angel, tool, or weapon. Israel's extensive use of fire in the cult gives witness to similar traditions. Divine fire accompanies each new cultic inauguration in the Hebrew Bible. A tradition in Leviticus suggests that this fire remained continuously burning and served as a "gate" that allowed God to received portions of the cultic offering. In the Hebrew Bible, fire was thus a "status symbol" of divinity, drawn from traditional storm motifs and ancient conventions of divine embodiment. In its vivid ethereal appearance and power to give, transform, and take life, it symbolized the presence and agency of Yhwh, the God of Israel.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author considers her life to be a garden of miracles. She is happy that the Lord has endowed her with the insight to write about her homeland, Montserrat, the Emerald Isle of the Caribbean. After teaching for thirty-three years, she retired on July 10, 1995. She began to write eight days later when the volcanic eruptions started there. Her aim is to tell its tales since it has lost two-thirds of its land mass to the raging volcano that continues to erupt. In her three books, Montserrat on My Mind, Montserrat in the Heart of the Caribbean, America and England, and Miss Tillie, the author wrote seriously and comically about her childhood experiences in Montserrat. She is also a member of the Montserrat Progressive Society of New York, Inc. In Maamie and Parpi Daley of Montserrat, the author wrote about two New York-born grandchildren, Maggie and Syd Daley, who spent their summer vacations with their grandparents, Magdalene and Gabriel Daley, their beloved Maamie and Parpi, from pre-school to their junior and senior years in high school. Maamie and Parpi Daley taught them many interesting things about their ancestors, and the island and its culture.

Download or read book Detroit Burning written by Tobin T. Buhk and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2024-07-17 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In March 1863, news of a controversial draft law hit the streets of Detroit as local saloonkeeper William Faulkner stood trial for raping two young girls. The sensational trial and accompanying lurid coverage in local newspapers inflamed festering racial animosities, resulting in an event dubbed "the bloodiest day that ever dawned upon Detroit." The Detroit riot of 1863 permanently altered the city's social landscape and later spurred the establishment of Detroit's first metropolitan police department. This history of the Detroit riot of 1863 illustrates the unique and complex social dynamic of Detroit during the Civil War. Featuring eyewitness testimonies from rare and seldom seen court records and trial transcripts, the book identifies the ringleaders, examines factors leading to the riot, and analyzes Faulkner's trial in the context of political events.
Book Synopsis The Cannibal Hymn by : Christopher Eyre
Download or read book The Cannibal Hymn written by Christopher Eyre and published by Liverpool University Press. This book was released on 2002-01-01 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Cannibal Hymn forms a self-standing episode in the ritual anthology that makes up the Pyramid Texts, first appearing in the tomb of Unas at the end of the Fifth Dynasty. Its style and format are characteristic of the oral-recitational poetry of pharaonic Egypt, marked by allusive metaphor and the exploitation of wordplay and homophony in its verbal recreation of a butchery ritual. Christopher Eyre examines the text of the Cannibal Hymn in its performative and cultural context: the detailed mythologization of the sacrificial process in this hymn poses key questions about the nature of rites of passage and rituals of sacrifice in Egypt, and in particular about the mobilization of oral accompaniment to ritual actions.
