Book excerpt: NATIONAL BESTSELLER Finalist for the Amazon Canada First Novel Award Cityline Book Club Pick “A deep, unflinching yet loving look at injustice and power.” —Chatelaine “A powerful and unforgettable novel” (Quill and Quire, starred review) about a young woman who must find the courage to secure her freedom and determine her own future Set in an imagined world in which the most vulnerable are forced to buy their freedom by working off their debt to society, Gutter Child uncovers a nation divided into the privileged Mainland and the policed Gutter. As part of a social experiment led by the Mainland government, Elimina Dubois is one of just one hundred babies taken from the Gutter and raised in the land of opportunity. But when her Mainland mother dies, Elimina finds herself alone, a teenager forced into an unfamiliar life of servitude, unsure of who she is and where she belongs. Sent to an academy with new rules and expectations, Elimina befriends children who are making their own way through the Gutter System in whatever way they know how. But when her life takes yet another unexpected turn, Elimina will discover that what she needs more than anything may not be the freedom she longed for after all. Gutter Child reveals one young woman’s journey through a fractured world of heartbreaking disadvantages and shocking injustices. As a modern heroine in an altered but all-too-recognizable reality, Elimina must find the strength within herself to forge her future in defiance of a system that tries to shape her destiny.

Download or read book Women of the Bible: Jael's Story written by Ann Burton and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2006-03-07 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Bible is filled with women of faith, bravery, and cunning. Here is one woman’s tale—as it might have happened . . . “Blessed above women shall Jael the wife of Heber the Kenite be, Blessed shall she be above women in the tent.” Judges 5:24” Like many a bride-to-be, Jael looks forward to a long, loving marriage. But when her husband, Heber, takes her home to live in the company of his other wife and concubine, Jael’s dreams begin to crumble. The women in her tent warn Jael that, to bear Heber the sons he demands, she will have to risk shame, betrayal of her vows, even possible execution. But in the darkest moment of her life, there sparks a flame: a young warrior named Levi enters her life—and Jael is presented with a life-changing decision, one that will affect the fate of all the people of Israel. Now there’s no turning back on the path that will lead her to change history—by doing the unthinkable. “Terrific biblical biographical fiction, the genesis of a new series.”—Midwest Book Review
Book Synopsis Jael the Conqueror by : Bishop Donald R. Downing
Download or read book Jael the Conqueror written by Bishop Donald R. Downing and published by Xulon Press. This book was released on 2009-10 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jael the Conquer By Bishop Donald Downing Through Biblical research, visions, and inspiration from the Holy Spirit, Bishop Downing brings to life Judges 4 & 5, the tale of a female warrior, a little-known heroine of the Bible: Jael the Conqueror. Like her counterpart David, who slew the giant Goliath, Jael was a black Kenite maiden chosen by God to fulfill her destiny, to slay the giant Sisera and deliver the children of Israel from bondage to Jabin, the wicked king. Deborah the prophetess, a judge over Israel, prophesied that the Lord would sell Sisera into the hands of a woman. As Sisera came running into her tent, fleeing from Barak, Jael knew her life was in danger. She learned how to use her inner weapons of faith and wisdom, as God gave her strength to use milk, a hammer and a nail. As she placed the nail against Sisera's head, she felt the anointing power of God as never before. The Bible states in Judges 4:21, the nail went completely through Sisera's forehead and fastened itself deep into the ground. Jael professed her faith in the true and living God and chose to worship with the Israelites, despite her ancestral lineage. She never allowed her battles to be greater than her worship, prayers and praises to her God. Bishop Donald Downing gives a richly imaginative look into the possible life of Jael the Conqueror, from her childhood to adulthood, as she fought for the rights and protection of all women. He is of the opinion that we should not judge the battles of others if we are not willing to help them to fight their wars.

Book Synopsis Bringing the Hidden to Light by : Kathryn F. Kravitz
Download or read book Bringing the Hidden to Light written by Kathryn F. Kravitz and published by Eisenbrauns. This book was released on 2007 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Geller is Irma Cameron Milstein Professor of Bible at Jewish Theological Seminary. Geller's attention to language and interest in applying the methods of literary analysis to the Hebrew Bible are reflected in his work throughout his career. He has addressed such topics as "The Dynamics of Parallel Verse" in Deuteronomy 32, the "Language of Imagery in Psalm 114," and the literary uses of "Cleft Sentences with Pleonastic Pronoun." Combining a historical orientation with deep exegeses of individual texts, he has focused on the contribution that the literary approach might make to the study of biblical religion. He has developed what he terms a "literary theology," in which, by examining the literary devices in the passage under consideration, he has been able to formulate emerging religious ideas that the ancient writers did not express in systematic treatises. His method is illustrated in his studies of texts that represent the major religious traditions of the Hebrew Bible; these studies have been collected in Sacred Enigmas, published in 1997. The essays in this volume were contributed by colleagues, friends, and students of Stephen A. Geller to mark the occasion of his 65th birthday. Contributors include: Tzvi Abusch, Marc Z. Brettler, Alan Cooper, Frank Moore Cross, Stephen Garfinkel, Edward L. Greenstein, Robert A. Harris, S. Tamar Kamionkowski, Kathryn F. Kravitz, Anne Lapidus Lerner, David Marcus, Yochanan Muffs, Benjamin Ravid, Michael Rosenbaum, Raymond P. Scheindlin, William M. Schniedewind, Diane M. Sharon, Benjamin D. Sommer.

This book was released on 2005-09-09 with total page 652 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Preaching pastors, ministers, and priests know how quickly Sundays come and go. The Lectionary Commentary will not slow the pace of the weekly calendar, but it will help assure that sermon preparation begins with a solid engagement with Scripture. Designed to "jump start" the difficult task of sermon preparation, this indispensable three-volume work gathers exegetical essays on biblical texts from the Revised Common Lectionary. Covering every Sunday of the three-year liturgical cycle, as well as Christmas Day, Epiphany, and Ascension Day, the readings are arranged in canonical order so as to be of use to all preachers. Seventy-eight pastors, priests, and teachers from a variety of Christian traditions have contributed their insights to The Lectionary Commentary. Designed to answer the question What does the preacher need to know about this text in order to preach a faithful sermon from it?, each of their essays closely considers its specific biblical text, all the while remaining alert to the contemporary context in which the sermon will be spoken and heard. The result is an invaluable resource that will aid in the difficult task of facilitating a meaningful encounter between Holy Scripture and our modern world. This volume, The First Readings: Old Testament and Acts, provides exegetical commentary on the lectionary readings from Genesis to Malachi, and from the first seventeen chapters of Acts. Also unique to this volume is an excellent essay by Hughes Oliphant Old on preaching as worship. Consulting Editors: Richard A. Burridge Thomas W. Gillespie Colin E. Gunton Robert W. Jenson James F.
