Book Synopsis The Fall Feasts of Yahuah: An invitation to the Wedding by : Rav Sha'ul
Download or read book The Fall Feasts of Yahuah: An invitation to the Wedding written by Rav Sha'ul and published by Rav Sha'ul. This book was released on with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Spring Feasts rehearse the Engagement and the Fall Feast are a rehearsal of the Wedding. We should approach our celebration of these Moedim from that standpoint. If we do, not only will we please Yahuah, but we will mature from the milk of the Word to the meat of it. In the process, we will fulfill “the letter” and properly prepare ourselves as the Bride; and have our candles lit when Yahusha returns to receive us unto himself. We read in 1 Corinthians 2:7 that Sha’ul mention “predestined before the ages to our glory”! We are going to go back to the very beginning, before the Feasts of Yahuah were given orally to Adam and before they were written down in detailed instructions in The Mosaic Covenant. Why? Because now, in The Yahushaic Covenant, they have found their ultimate meaning Spiritually; meaning which was ordained before the foundation of the world and predestined before the ages, as Sha’ul stated.

Book Synopsis Sex and the Citadel by : Shereen El Feki
Download or read book Sex and the Citadel written by Shereen El Feki and published by Doubleday Canada. This book was released on 2013-03-12 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the political unrest that swept across the Arab region in 2011, all eyes were on the streets and squares erupting in protest. But for the past four years, Shereen El Feki has been looking at upheaval a little closer to home -- in the sexual lives of men and women across the Arab world. The result is Sex and the Citadel, an informative, insightful and engaging account of a highly sensitive and still largely secret aspect of Arab society. Sex might seem a strange lens with which to examine change in the Arab world; it is, in fact, a prism with which to refract the region's complex social spectrum. Sexual attitudes and behaviours are intimately bound up in religion, culture, politics and economics. As such, they are not only a reflection of the conditions that led to the recent uprisings, as well as one of the engines of revolt, but will also be a measure of hard-won reforms in the years to come. Sex and the Citadel is no peep show. By linking sexuality to political, economic, social and religious trends, it opens a window on the greater landscape of the Arab world, both for readers new to the region whose interest has been sparked by recent events, and for old hands familiar with the Arab world. Nor is the book an academic treatise: this is a highly personal account, rich with original research and first-person stories, that gives us unprecedented and timely insight into a part of the world that is transforming in front of our very eyes.
Download or read book Madinah written by Nedim Gursel and published by Comma Press. This book was released on 2013-12-04 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ‘Madinah’ – the Arabic word for ‘city’ – may conjure labyrinthine streets and the hustle and bustle of the souq in Westerners’ minds, but for the inhabitants of the Middle East it is a much more mercurial thing, and one that’s changing today faster than ever. Here – in ten urban stories set across the region – the city reveals itself through a vibrant array of characters: from the celebrated author collecting an award in the city that exiled him decades before, to the forlorn lover waiting at a rendezvous as government officials raid nearby shops, confiscating ‘wanton’ Valentine’s Day roses. Whilst engineers race to complete another ‘world’s tallest building’ in Dubai, and American helicopters patrol the Martyrs Bridge in Baghdad, we realise it is the people, and not the landmarks, that define these places; like the language student in Beirut who tries to make a joke of being ‘war-broken’ to her friends, or the Israeli General who invites guests to his office to watch promo videos for the tank that will ‘win the next war’ whilst eating biscuits and reciting poetry. For all we think we know of the conflict and exoticism of the region, nothing opens more doors to what we don’t than its writing. Here, ten short stories by new and established writers have been selected and translated in English for the first time, to open just such a door… "Isolation, homesickness and sex are themes to be expected in literature about cities. It is human for isolated people to experience places intensely and for the displaced to miss home..." - The Times, 22 Nov 08. "The desert cities bloom with unsustainable desire..." - The Independent, 28 Nov 08. 'a sampler of the vibrant writing coming out of the Middle East...' - The Saudi Gazette, 5 Jan.

This book was released on 2020-10-20 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Your Miracle after Miracle Life: Celebrate Your Essence, Celebrate Your Eternity may very well be the most important scientific breakthrough to the best solutions and the best thinking to challenges posed by the greatest minds of all time. Science cannot solve the ultimate mystery of nature. And it is because in the last analysis we ourselves are part of the mystery we are trying to solve. —Max Planck, Nobel laureate, Berlin University The full meaning of life, the collective meaning of all human desires is fundamentally a mystery beyond our grasp . . . We have no right to expect that our intellect can formulate perfect concepts for the full understanding of inanimate nature’s phenomena. —Eugene Wigner, Nobel laureate, Princeton University It is difficult to imagine that we could be ever in the possession of final physical principles that have no explanation in terms of deeper principles. —Steven Weinberg, Nobel laureate, University of Texas M. Planck, E. Wigner, and S. Weinberg don’t help how humanity can solve the ultimate mystery of nature, the full meaning of life, nor how can we ever be in the possession of the final physical principles? Your Miracle after Miracle Life reveals the final demands of life and the best solutions belong to the Eternal Architect and Creator of the Universe. Now you can gain access to and mine the Eternal for the best and ultimate solutions to prosper and advance your divinity. Further than modern science, ahead of forbidden knowledge, here is your breakthrough to the Absolute Light and God. Experience miracle after miracle in your Christ Nature life.
Download or read book The Rubais of Rumi written by and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2007-07-17 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first English translation of the rubais of Rumi • Presents 233 of the most evocative of Rumi’s 1,700 rubais • Shows that the mystical embrace is the way to directly experience the Divine Rumi is well known for the over 44,000 verses that appear in a 23-volume collection called the Divan-i Kebir. Yet Rumi also composed 1,700 rubais, short aphorisms and observations, whose depth and message belie their brevity. The form of rubais first became well known through the 11th-century collection The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam. But unlike Khayyam, who like most poets would sit and carefully craft each word, Rumi would compose and speak his poems through the spontaneous “language of poetry” that poured from his lips as he traveled the streets of Konya, Anatolia (present-day Turkey). Very few of Rumi’s rubais have been translated into any of the languages of the contemporary Western world. Now, Nevit O. Ergin, the translator of the complete Divan-i Kebir, and Will Johnson present here 233 of the most evocative of Rumi’s 1,700 rubais. Rumi’s poetry expresses profound and complex truths in beautiful yet simple language. He reveals that by going deep into the interior of our heart and soul, we can arrive at a place in which we once again merge and connect with the divine. This mystical quest, Rumi contends, is the birthright of us all. Anything less than a complete dissolving into the world of divine union will not provide the satisfaction and peace that we all seek. The simple, yet profound spiritual truths and visions contained in The Rubais of Rumi lead the way to the path of reconnection to the direct energies of God.
