Book Synopsis Friendly Guide to the Birth of Jesus by : Mary Coloe
Download or read book Friendly Guide to the Birth of Jesus written by Mary Coloe and published by . This book was released on 2017-10-15 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The birth of Jesus is one of the best-known stories in the Gospels, and yet often people do not think about or read the text as adults. They carry with them childhood memories that may be inaccurate, according to the text, and miss the deep theological purpose of these two narratives. While writing about the birth of a child, Matthew and Luke have clearly in their minds the adult Jesus - if only we could see him. It is a little like approaching an iceberg without realising that most of the iceberg is below the surface. If we only read the "surface" story of the nativity, we fail to understand the rich introductions to the person and ministry of the adult Jesus. This book will help you to dive beneath the surface of the text and come to a deeper faith appreciation of both Gospels' introduction to Jesus' ministry.
Book Synopsis Journey of The Magi by : Paul William Roberts
Download or read book Journey of The Magi written by Paul William Roberts and published by Harvard Common Press. This book was released on 2006-06-30 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Who were the Magi and why did they travel hundreds of miles to worship a newborn child? These are mysteries that have endured and remained unsolved for centuries, in part because nativity accounts and descriptions of the Magi vary dramatically - from the Bible itself to the Arabic Nativity Gospel. Intrigued by Marco Polo's claim to have visited the tomb of the Magi in a 'castle of fire-worshippers', Paul William Roberts here travels to Iran and traces the Magi's legendary journey overland to Bethlehem, through Iran, Iraq, Syria and Jordan. In the course of his extraordinary adventure, Roberts encounters a diverse cast of characters, from fearless smugglers to serene Zoroastrian priests, and chases clues from Marco Polo's Travels and the Dead Sea Scrolls to the legends of King Solomon and the Crusader Knights."--BOOK JACKET.

Book Synopsis Countdown to Christmas by : Andrea Dougherty
Download or read book Countdown to Christmas written by Andrea Dougherty and published by R. R. Bowker. This book was released on 2023-08-31 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book was written to be a simple guide for families of all ages to discover Christ's family tree (Jesse Tree) in preparation for Jesus' birth. During the four weeks of Advent, which is the period leading up to Christmas, families sometimes create or display a small Jesse Tree. Each day, a new ornament or symbol representing a different person or event from the Old Testament is added to the tree. These symbols often include figures like Adam and Eve, Noah, Abraham, Moses, and others, as well as significant events like the parting of the Red Sea and the giving of the Ten Commandments. The progression of symbols helps tell the story of salvation history leading up to the birth of our Savior, Jesus Christ. The Jesse Tree tradition serves as a way to reflect on the importance of Jesus' birth in the context of the broader biblical narrative. It is a visual reminder of how Jesus' lineage and birth are intertwined with the history of God's relationship with humanity as told in the Old Testament stories. There are 25 stories that correspond with 25 ornaments (SOLD SEPARATELY), each representing the 25 days in December leading up to Christmas. Some of the stories are simple for young learners, and some are quite complex. Repeated, yearly exposure will help your whole family understand the journey of God's chosen people and will, hopefully, be a guide during your own journey in life.

Book Synopsis Short Stories by Jesus by : Amy-Jill Levine
Download or read book Short Stories by Jesus written by Amy-Jill Levine and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2014-09-09 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The renowned biblical scholar, author of The Misunderstood Jew, and general editor for The Jewish Annotated New Testament interweaves history and spiritual analysis to explore Jesus’ most popular teaching parables, exposing their misinterpretations and making them lively and relevant for modern readers. Jesus was a skilled storyteller and perceptive teacher who used parables from everyday life to effectively convey his message and meaning. Life in first-century Palestine was very different from our world today, and many traditional interpretations of Jesus’ stories ignore this disparity and have often allowed anti-Semitism and misogyny to color their perspectives. In this wise, entertaining, and educational book, Amy-Jill Levine offers a fresh, timely reinterpretation of Jesus’ narratives. In Short Stories by Jesus, she analyzes these “problems with parables,” taking readers back in time to understand how their original Jewish audience understood them. Levine reveals the parables’ connections to first-century economic and agricultural life, social customs and morality, Jewish scriptures and Roman culture. With this revitalized understanding, she interprets these moving stories for the contemporary reader, showing how the parables are not just about Jesus, but are also about us—and when read rightly, still challenge and provoke us two thousand years later.
