Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A royal inscription, attributed to King Jenoash of Judah, surfaced on the Jerusalem antiquities market a few years ago. The Hebrew text, which recounts restorations to the Temple of Solomon, is similar to the biblical narrative. The inscribed black stone created worldwide news coverage and was branded a forgery by academicians most of whom are NOT professional Epigraphers ... Could the inscription be a forgery, and who could have faked such an artifact? Are those persons brought to trial guilty or innocent?"--Book back cover.
Download or read book King Caliban written by Victor Sasson and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2013-03-04 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: King Caliban presents a fresh and admirable view of Caliban, who manages, with his acquired use of the colonials language, to gain his rightful kingship of the island, and Mirandas enduring love. King Caliban is a revolutionary version of Shakespeares colonial Tempest, following the mock shipwreck, and the scattered travellers on the island. The play views Prospero as a missionary and a despot, who with his technological expertise, exploits the islands natural resources of airy spirits, using a different staff, a different robe, and a different book. While engaging in personal revenge, left and right, he works his black art under the guise of bringing civilization, language, and salvation to the native he has enslaved and maligned. His pardoning of state criminals paraded as forgiveness, has a typically sham, ulterior motive -- that of making his daughter, Miranda, Queen of Naples -- an aim that is frustrated in King Caliban through Mirandas revelation of Calibans inner worth, the injustice done to him, their shared childhood on the island, and his courtship of her.

Book excerpt: Jesus of Nazareths blasphemous statements, contradicting Gods Torah and the teachings of the Hebrew Prophets, had earned him a place in Gehinnom.

Download or read book Elijah the Tishbite written by Victor Sasson and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2018-09-27 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Elijah the Tishbite is a drama about one of the most zealous, charismatic, and fearless prophets in the Hebrew Bible. Elijah, the ultimate anti-establishment man, often risked his life denouncing King Ahab and his foreign wife, Jezebel, who brazenly sought to establish her Sidonian Ba’al cult in Samaria. The play dramatizes major episodes succinctly narrated in the book of Kings. Among these are Elijah’s despair at his people’s wavering faith, his flights and wanderings, the devastating drought ravaging the country, the contest between Adonai and Ba’al on Mount Carmel, the heinous conspiracy and murder of Naboth the Jezreelite, the rise of the revolutionary Jehu, and the assassination of Jezebel. The play also touches on Jehu’s eventual liquidation of Omri’s dynasty and the measures he had to take to eradicate idol worship in the Northern Kingdom.

What was finally achieved has been falsely paraded as the only democracy in the Middle East, when in fact it is the only apartheid state in the region. Will this sham Utopia last for a thousand years? Utopia’s Pirates is a satire about Zionist terrorism, interspersed with propaganda slogans, humorous verses, and lines taken from recognisable songs.

Book Synopsis Shylock of Venice by : Victor Sasson
Download or read book Shylock of Venice written by Victor Sasson and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2012-07 with total page 101 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shylock of Venice is a sequel to Shakespeare's The Merchant of Venice. While the trial scene in Shakespeare's play is crude, unrealistic and unbelievable, designed for the Christian riffraff, the language of the play is very much poetic, with classical and biblical allusions, appreciable only by the educated. In Shylock of Venice, Portia and her male and female companions are exposed as legal impostors and day-dreamers whose one year romantic marriages have collapsed. All are toppled from the pinnacle of Belmont fantasy-land, for their kind of idealized romance -- based on good looks and money -- was destined to fall apart. Shylock the Jew, living among racist, abusive Christians, has his deserved day in court with a judge that is now more enlightened. With foreign help and through more realistic and legal means, Shylock is fully reinstated to his former situation and faith, and united with his repentant daughter, Jessica. Shylock of Venice presents idealized, romantic marriages that have collapsed, a credible retrial in which punishment is meted out to court impersonators, and Shylock is fully vindicated, compensated, and reinstated.
Book Synopsis King Solomon and Temple of Solomon by : Charles River Charles River Editors
Download or read book King Solomon and Temple of Solomon written by Charles River Charles River Editors and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-06-11 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: *Includes pictures *Discusses the debate and theories over the historical and religious nature of King Solomon's life, and the construction and operation of the temple *Compares the Bible to the historical record to trace the roots of Solomon's reign and temple *Includes a bibliography for further reading King Solomon is one of the most famous men in the Bible, but also one of the most elusive historical figures. He is credited with supervising the construction of the first Temple in Jerusalem, and excavations and archaeologists continue to dig in an effort to find it in places that are now religiously sensitive for Christians, Jews, and Muslims. Information about King Solomon comes almost exclusively from the book of Kings, occasionally supplemented by additional material found in the book of Chronicles. This is problematic for several reasons. First, the book of Kings does not simply record the actions of the king and the details of his reign for posterity; the author weaves a narrative that is often more concerned about making theological points rather than recording historical details. Moreover, the first edition of this book was written in the 6th century B.C. at the earliest, about four centuries after King Solomon would have lived, by an editor given the title of Deuteronomistic Historian. It is likely that this editor relied upon some type of royal "court history" as a source document. The temptation with a figure like Solomon can be to go to one of two extremes. Some readers may want to look at Solomon only as a historical figure without acknowledging the literary elements that play a big role in his life story. Other readers may find themselves at the other extreme and view Solomon entirely as a literary figure, dismissing any historicity at all from his story. Given how important he is as a religious figure, it's necessary to keep in mind both the literary and historical elements of the monarch's story. There was not any one entity more central to the Yahwistic Judean religion during the monarchy than the temple of Solomon. It symbolized the presence of YHWH in the nation, as well as his enduring protection of the nation and the Davidic royal throne. Judean worshippers directed their prayers toward the Solomonic temple, and eventually, the Judean prophets and theologians declared that this was the only legitimate location where priests could perform sacrifices and other religious rites for YHWH. Its significance can be seen most clearly in the dramatic cognitive dissonance experienced by the Judeans in Babylonian captivity after the destruction of the temple, which had been so central to their religious conception that they had great difficulty reconciling its destruction with their continued belief in YHWH at all. The Temple and the Biblical descriptions of it have fascinated people for centuries and led to all kinds of conjecture and imagination. In addition to countless works of art, Isaac Newton tried to make a model of it in his writings, and he wrote about the temple extensively. Even Freemasons give a nod to Solomon's Temple by calling their meeting places temples as well. That said, the Temple remains an enduring mystery due to conflicting accounts and descriptions of it in the Bible, and some scholars have even put forth theories that the structure was not originally designed to serve religious purposes in the first place. King Solomon and Temple of Solomon: The History of the Jewish King and His Temple discusses the history, mystery and controversy surrounding Solomon and the temple, examining the Bible and historical record in an attempt to separate fact from fiction. Along with pictures and a bibliography, you will learn about Solomon and Solomon's Temple like never before.
Book Synopsis The Temple of Solomon by : James Wasserman
Download or read book The Temple of Solomon written by James Wasserman and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2011-11-08 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A fully illustrated history of the Temple of Solomon • Examines the Temple of Solomon in the Hebrew Scriptures, the New Testament, and Apocryphal writings • Explores its role in the founding of Freemasonry, the legends of the Knights Templar, the doctrines of the Kabbalah, and the teachings of Islam • Explains the sacred nature of the Temple Mount--the site of the Temple of Solomon--and the secrets that may still be hidden there • Richly illustrated, including many photos and images from rare archives The spiritual heart of many esoteric societies, the Temple of Solomon was located atop the Temple Mount in Jerusalem, a site venerated by the three great monotheistic religions as the intersection of Divine and human. Built by King Solomon at the peak of ancient Israel’s power, the Temple of Solomon housed the golden Ark of the Covenant in its Holy of Holies, a sacred chamber where one could communicate directly with God. Centuries after the temple’s destruction, the Temple Mount was used as the headquarters for the Knights Templar during the Crusades, and countless legends have come down through the centuries about the secrets they may have uncovered there, including discovery of the Holy Grail or the Ark of the Covenant. Richly illustrated with biblical and Masonic illustrations, photographs, and ancient and modern paintings--many from rare archives--this book explores the Temple of Solomon in the Hebrew Scriptures, the New Testament, and Apocryphal writings as well as its role in the founding of Freemasonry, the legends of the Knights Templar, the doctrines of the Kabbalah, and Muhammad’s visionary journey from the Temple Mount through the heavens. Seeking to understand the powerful desire of many religions and secret societies to re-create the temple through ritual and prayer, James Wasserman explains why it was built, the magical forces King Solomon may have used in its creation, what its destruction meant for Jews and Christians alike, and why the Knights Templar as well as several modern secret societies named their orders after it. Detailing the sacred architecture of this perfectly proportioned mystical edifice through words and art, the author reveals the Temple of Solomon as the affirmation of God’s presence in human affairs, the spiritual root of Western culture, and an important monument to the Divine nearly forgotten in today’s secular times but sorely needed to bridge the divide between our ancient past and our spiritual future.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Mystery of the Temple of SolomonOld Clues in a New Light from the Holy Texts to Modern Archeological Finds..The Book "The Mystery of the temple of Solomon" is a new scientific research by Dr. Doaa El Shereef, a researcher of Biblical archeology, which serves as a more complete reference guide to the Temple of Solomon, and a scientific response to the different claims about the Temple built in the city of Jerusalem, collected in one. The Book is indexed with many rich sources, supported by passages from the Holy Scriptures (Torah, Holy Bible, and Holy Quran), archaeological discoveries, historical documents and treatises. The book contains a Foreword, an Introduction chapter, six chapters, Conclusion and References guide.The Book is a critical study, which was a dissertation of PhD degree, and its objective was answering the following questions: Did the Lord order Moses to build a Temple in the Pentateuch? What is the difference between the Hebrew, the Israeli and the Jew? How does Torah recognize that Palestine's land was a foreignness land for Patriarchs and their families? Is there any relationship between the people of Abraham and the people of Moses? Did Jacob build a Temple in Jerusalem? What civilization was in the city of Jerusalem before David seized it - according to Torah? Who are its people? Did they leave or emigrate from it after David took over the city? What is the difference between the story of David and Solomon mentioned in the Bible and in the Quran? The Hebrew Bible, the Samaritan Torah, and the Dead Sea Scrolls, do they agree about a specific place of the holy Temple? Is there a uniform specification for the Temple of Solomon mentioned in the Old Testament? Had really Solomon build a temple? Did Cyrus call the exiled Jews to return to Jerusalem in Cyrus Cylinder? What is the relation between Herod the Great and the Jews? How many historical references mention the story of the Second Temple? Was Al-Aqsa Mosque build on the ruins of the Temple of Solomon? Is the Wailing Wall related to Jews or Muslims?Quoting from Dr. Walter P. Drake, J.D., Ph.D. Director, Blue Marble University in the Foreword of the book:"Doaa El Shereef has created not only a lively, easy-reading work on whether the Temple of Solomon ever existed, but has amassed a wonderful collection of references to the Temple as found in the Quran and the Holy Bible juxtaposed against the relevant archeological findings for use by future scholars.Even a cursory look at this book shows it to be a monumental effort that has resulted in creating the very best reference material in the world relating to the Al Aqsa Mosque and the Temple of Solomon. The collection of illustrations in Chapter 6 alone separates this book from every other reference in existence today and is a treasure trove for further study by future Mid East and international scholars. Nowhere else can such a beautiful and thorough collection of authorities, images, and diagrams, all carefully laid out against Holy texts be found."Finally, he concluded: "It is discourse such as represented by this book, which leads to mutual respect of differing opinions...and further leads maybe even to friendship..."
Book Synopsis Restoring the First-century Church in the Twenty-first Century by : Warren Lewis
Download or read book Restoring the First-century Church in the Twenty-first Century written by Warren Lewis and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2005-10-15 with total page 629 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Restoring the First-century Church in the Twenty-first Century: Essays on the Stone-Campbell Restoration Movement in Honor of Don Haymes' is a snap-shot of a major American religious movement just after the turn of the millennium. When the ÒDisciplesÓ of Alexander Campbell and the ÒChristiansÓ of Barton Warren Stone joined forces early in the 19th century, the first indigenous ecumenical movement in the United States came into being. Two hundred years later, this American experiment in biblical primitivism has resulted in three, possibly four, large segments. Best known is the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ), active wherever ecumenical Christians gather. The denomination is typically theologically open, having been reshaped by theological Liberalism and the Social Gospel in the twentieth century, and has been re-organized on the model of other Protestant bodies. The largest group, the Churches of Christ, easily distinguished by their insistence on 'a cappella' music (singing only), is theologically conservative, now tending towards the evangelical, and congregationally autonomous, though with a denominational sense of brotherhood. The Christian Churches/Churches of Christ (Independent) are a 'via media' between the two other bodies: theologically conservative and evangelical, congregationally autonomous, pastorally oriented, and comfortable with instrumental music. The fourth numerically significant group, the churches of Christ (Anti-Institutional), is a conservative reaction to the 'a cappella' churches, much in the way that the Southern ''a capella' churches reacted against the emerging intellectual culture and social location, instrumental music and institutional centrism of the Northern Disciples following the Civil War. Besides these four, numerous smaller fragments, typically one-article splinter groups, decorate the history of the Restoration Movement: One-Cup brethren, Premillennialists, No-Sunday-School congregations, No-Located-Preacher churches, and others. This movement to unite Christians on the basis of faith and immersion in Jesus Christ, and to restore New-Testament Christianity, is too little recognized on the American religious landscape, and it has been too little studied by the academic community. This volume is focused primarily on the 'a cappella' churches and their interests, but implications for the entire Stone-Campbell Restoration Movement abound. The voices that speak freely within were unimpeded in authoring these essays by standards of orthodoxy imposed from without. All of the contributors are acquainted with Don Haymes, the honoree of the volume, and have been inspired by this friend and colleague, a man with a rigorous and earthy intellect and a heavenly spirit.

Book Synopsis The Secret of Solomon's Temple by : Kevin L. Gest
Download or read book The Secret of Solomon's Temple written by Kevin L. Gest and published by Lewis Masonic Pub. This book was released on 2007 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We have all been told that Solomon was a noble and wise ruler in ancient times. However, in the past twenty years, much of our understanding about biblical times has changed. Eminent archaeologists have indicated that Solomon was not his real name, but one given to him some time after his death. Furthermore, increased understanding of ancient languages has resulted in the correction of many translation errors and changed our perception of biblical events. This reveals that what the church has promoted for several centuries may have to be reconsidered. This book reveals a secret that has been lying at the center of Freemasonry for hundreds of years. Who really was Solomon and what was the nature of the secret knowledge he possessed? This book reveals how the temple would have worked and its connection to modern Freemasonry. The pentagram, or Solomon's Seal, is a Masonic symbol. Where did it come from and what is its meaning?
