Download or read book From Prison to Palace written by Claudette Glaude-Scott and published by Ziklag Publishers. This book was released on 2022-01-27 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In every life, there are challenges. If you want to live and overcome your challenges, it's possible. The life of Joseph is the triumph of man above his circumstances. Joseph faced the same challenges that you face. He did not allow his circumstances to make him a victim. Joseph was a dreamer. His dreams painted pictures that his siblings did not want to see and so the dreams caused chaos in his family. They became the breathing ground for all the challenges Joseph faced in his life. Joseph went from favor in his home to disfavor in Egypt. Joseph overcame the challenges in his life through a life changing relationship with God. If you are struggling in your relationships, there is hope. As you look at Joseph’s life, you will discover that you too can relate to the people who were present in Joseph’s life. You will meet the parent who sowed seeds of discord in the lives of his children. The siblings who refused to celebrate when good things happen in your life. Then there are those like Potiphar’s wife whose mission is to cause you to compromise your integrity. He even met with one who forgot his kindness. In the end he forgave his brothers from a pure heart. In spite of all these things, Joseph never gave up. He could not survive his life in Egypt without making changes. Joseph never allowed his pain to prevent him from being honorable. He worked with excellence wherever life took him. As a result, in the worst of circumstances, his integrity and work ethic were always on display. One day Pharaoh needed Joseph's wisdom so he sent for Joseph while he was in prison. Joseph's reward for years of working with excellence was his address changed from prison to palace. You can overcome the challenges in your life and rise to the top.

Book Synopsis The Beginning of Wisdom by : Leon Kass
Download or read book The Beginning of Wisdom written by Leon Kass and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2003-05-20 with total page 722 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Imagine that you could really understand the Bible...that you could read, analyze, and discuss the book of Genesis not as a compositional mystery, a cultural relic, or a linguistic puzzle palace, or even as religious doctrine, but as a philosophical classic, precisely in the same way that a truth-seeking reader would study Plato or Nietzsche. Imagine that you could be led in your study by one of America's preeminent intellectuals and that he would help you to an understanding of the book that is deeper than you'd ever dreamed possible, that he would reveal line by line, verse by verse the incredible riches of this illuminating text -- one of the very few that actually deserve to be called seminal. Imagine that you could get, from Genesis, the beginning of wisdom. The Beginning of Wisdom is a hugely learned book that, like Genesis itself, falls naturally into two sections. The first shows how the universal history described in the first eleven chapters of Genesis, from creation to the tower of Babel, conveys, in the words of Leon Kass, "a coherent anthropology" -- a general teaching about human nature -- that "rivals anything produced by the great philosophers." Serving also as a mirror for the reader's self-discovery, these stories offer profound insights into the problematic character of human reason, speech, freedom, sexual desire, the love of the beautiful, pride, shame, anger, guilt, and death. Something as seemingly innocuous as the monotonous recounting of the ten generations from Adam to Noah yields a powerful lesson in the way in which humanity encounters its own mortality. In the story of the tower of Babel are deep understandings of the ambiguous power of speech, reason, and the arts; the hazards of unity and aloneness; the meaning of the city and its quest for self-sufficiency; and man's desire for fame, immortality, and apotheosis -- and the disasters these necessarily cause. Against this background of human failure, Part Two of The Beginning of Wisdom explores the struggles to launch a new human way, informed by the special Abrahamic covenant with the divine, that might address the problems and avoid the disasters of humankind's natural propensities. Close, eloquent, and brilliant readings of the lives and educations of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and Jacob's sons reveal eternal wisdom about marriage, parenting, brotherhood, education, justice, political and moral leadership, and of course the ultimate question: How to live a good life? Connecting the two "parts" is the book's overarching philosophical and pedagogical structure: how understanding the dangers and accepting the limits of human powers can open the door to a superior way of life, not only for a solitary man of virtue but for an entire community -- a life devoted to righteousness and holiness. This extraordinary book finally shows Genesis as a coherent whole, beginning with the creation of the natural world and ending with the creation of a nation that hearkens to the awe-inspiring summons to godliness. A unique and ambitious commentary, a remarkably readable literary exegesis and philosophical companion, The Beginning of Wisdom is one of the most important books in decades on perhaps the most important -- and surely the most frequently read -- book of all time.
Book Synopsis The Prisoner in His Palace by : Will Bardenwerper
Download or read book The Prisoner in His Palace written by Will Bardenwerper and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2017-06-06 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the tradition of In Cold Blood and The Executioner’s Song, this haunting, insightful, and surprisingly intimate portrait of Saddam Hussein provides “a brief, but powerful, meditation on the meaning of evil and power” (USA TODAY). The “captivating” (Military Times) The Prisoner in His Palace invites us to take a journey with twelve young American soldiers in the summer of 2006. Shortly after being deployed to Iraq, they learn their assignment: guarding Saddam Hussein in the months before his execution. Living alongside, and caring for, their “high value detainee and regularly transporting him to his raucous trial, many of the men begin questioning some of their most basic assumptions—about the judicial process, Saddam’s character, and the morality of modern war. Although the young soldiers’ increasingly intimate conversations with the once-feared dictator never lead them to doubt his responsibility for unspeakable crimes, the men do discover surprising new layers to his psyche that run counter to the media’s portrayal of him. Woven from firsthand accounts provided by many of the American guards, government officials, interrogators, scholars, spies, lawyers, family members, and victims, The Prisoner in His Palace shows two Saddams coexisting in one person: the defiant tyrant who uses torture and murder as tools, and a shrewd but contemplative prisoner who exhibits surprising affection, dignity, and courage in the face of looming death. In this thought-provoking narrative, Saddam, known as the “man without a conscience,” gets many of those around him to examine theirs. “A singular study exhibiting both military duty and human compassion” (Kirkus Reviews), The Prisoner in His Palace grants us “a behind-the-scenes look at history that’s nearly impossible to put down…a mesmerizing glimpse into the final moments of a brutal tyrant’s life” (BookPage).
Book Synopsis The Ballad of Reading Gaol by : Oscar Wilde
Download or read book The Ballad of Reading Gaol written by Oscar Wilde and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 1898 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: He did not wear his scarlet coat, For blood and wine are red, And blood and wine were on his hands When they found him with the dead, The poor dead woman whom he loved, And murdered in her bed. He walked amongst the Trial Men In a suit of shabby grey; A cricket cap was on his head, And his step seemed light and gay; But I never saw a man who looked So wistfully at the day. I never saw a man who looked With such a wistful eye Upon that little tent of blue Which prisoners call the sky, And at every drifting cloud that went With sails of silver by.
Book Synopsis MAKING PREPARATIONS FOR YOUR PRISON JOURNEY (WHAT YOUR ATTORNEY CAN’T TELL YOU) by : Sheryl A. Loftis
Download or read book MAKING PREPARATIONS FOR YOUR PRISON JOURNEY (WHAT YOUR ATTORNEY CAN’T TELL YOU) written by Sheryl A. Loftis and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2015-12-16 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is written for all of the women and men that are already incarcerated and for those who are getting ready to take a journey to prison. So many times we wonder how could I have gotten myself into this mess or why me? My answer to you is why not you? A person sentenced to a term in prison, can either do their time or let their time do them. Although, you feel what’s the use, I have no control over anything that happens. I disagree; your control lies in the Master’s Hands. It’s not so much your going to prison, but it is what you do while you are in prison. Women and men alike go to prison with the mentality I’m bad or I can make it through this, but not so. I’m sure you have heard the saying, make the money, don’t let the money make you, well the same it is with prison. Do your time, don’t let the time do you, because whether you believe it or not, time can and will do you. How do I know? I am glad you asked. Anyone that goes to prison whether guilty or innocence, once they are released and return back to prison or if they are bitter and not better; guess what, they did not do the time the time did them.
Book Synopsis Introduction to Reading the Pentateuch by : Jean Louis Ska
Download or read book Introduction to Reading the Pentateuch written by Jean Louis Ska and published by Eisenbrauns. This book was released on 2006 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Jean Louis Ska's Introduzione alla lettura del Pentateuco was first published in Italy, it was quickly hailed as the most attractive and usable introduction to the Pentateuch to appear in modern times. Because of its strengths, it was soon translated into French. The English translation published by Eisenbrauns has been completely reviewed and updated (including the bibliography) by Ska. Among the book's many strengths are its close attention to the ways in which modern cultural history has affected Pentateuchal interpretation, attention to providing the kinds of examples that are helpful to students, presentation of a good balance between the history of interpretation and the data of the text, and the clarity of Ska's writing. For both students and scholars, many consider this book the best contemporary introduction to the Pentateuch.
