Book Synopsis Citizenship in Classical Athens by : Josine Blok
Download or read book Citizenship in Classical Athens written by Josine Blok and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2017-03-10 with total page 349 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What did citizenship really mean in classical Athens? It is conventionally understood as characterised by holding political office. Since only men could do so, only they were considered to be citizens, and the community (polis) has appeared primarily as the scene of men's political actions. However, Athenian law defined citizens not by political office, but by descent. Religion was central to the polis and in this domain, women played prominent public roles. Both men and women were called 'citizens'. On a new reading of the evidence, Josine Blok argues that for the Athenians, their polis was founded on an enduring bond with the gods. Laws anchored the polis' commitments to humans and gods in this bond, transmitted over time to male and female Athenians as equal heirs. All public offices, in various ways and as befitting gender and age, served both the human community and the divine powers protecting Athens.

Book Synopsis The Athenian Democracy in the Age of Demosthenes by : Mogens Herman Hansen
Download or read book The Athenian Democracy in the Age of Demosthenes written by Mogens Herman Hansen and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 1999 with total page 468 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Athenian democracy of the fifth and fourth centuries B.C. is the most famous and perhaps most nearly perfect example of direct democracy. Covering the period 403-322 B.C., Mogens Herman Hansen focuses on the crucial last thirty years, which coincided with the political career of Demosthenes. Hansen distinguishes between the city's seven political institutions: the Assembly, the nomothetai, the People's Court, the boards of magistrates, the Council of Five Hundred, the Areopagos, and ho boulomenos. He discusses how Athenians conceived liberty both as the ability to participate in the decision-making process and as the right to live without oppression from the state or other citizens. Equality was conceived of as an equality not of nature but of opportunity.

Book excerpt: As the worldwide prayer movement continues to flourish, never before have so many Christians from so many faith traditions joined together to intercede for so long--in their homes, in their churches, in their communities. As the prayer movement continues to explode, leaders emerge to give guidance to the growing number of intercessors . . . and Alice Smith is at their forefront, leading the leaders who have lifted the banner of passionate, effective intercessory prayer for this generation and the next. In Beyond the Veil, Smith proclaims God's call for His people to pray and shares what she has learned on her own journey toward deeper intimacy with God through prayer. Whether readers are new to intercession or are veteran prayer warriors, they will discover sound, biblical methods for binding the enemy and loosing the Holy Spirit in their families, churches, and nations. Each chapter includes questions and prayer exercises, with a corresponding devotional to bring the principles of intercession to life, making Beyond the Veil the essential guidebook for the prayer revival that is sweeping the globe.

Book Synopsis Once Saved, Now Lost? by : Maisha Hunter
Download or read book Once Saved, Now Lost? written by Maisha Hunter and published by Remnant Publishing House. This book was released on with total page 99 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: God has given us great and precious promises so that we may know that we know Him, and know that He has granted His people eternal life. Yet there is a doctrine that has permeated Christianity called Once Saved Always Saved (OSAS), Eternal Unconditional Security, or Preservation of the Saints which asserts that once one has received the gift of eternal life through faith in Jesus Christ, such a gift is always assured. It can in no ways be lost. Is this true? This book reviews in-depth what the Scriptures have to say in this area and what the truth is about our reconciliation with God through Jesus Christ.
Book Synopsis Hallowed Stewards by : William S. Bubelis
Download or read book Hallowed Stewards written by William S. Bubelis and published by University of Michigan Press. This book was released on 2016-06-08 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Students of ancient Athenian politics, governance, and religion have long stumbled over the rich evidence of inscriptions and literary texts that document the Athenians' stewardship of the wealth of the gods. Likewise, Athens was well known for devoting public energy and funds to all matters of ritual, ranging from the building of temples to major religious sacrifices. Yet, lacking any adequate account of how the Athenians organized that commitment, much less how it arose and developed, ancient historians and philologists alike have labored with only a paltry understanding of what was a central concern to the Athenians themselves. That deficit of knowledge, in turn, has constrained and diminished our grasp of other essential questions surrounding Athenian society and its history, such as the nature of political life in archaic Athens, and the forces underlying Athens' imperial finances. Hallowed Stewards closely examines those magistracies that were central to Athenian religious efforts, and which are best described as "sacred treasurers." Given the extensive but nevertheless fragmentary evidence now available to us, no catalog-like approach to these offices could properly encompass their details much less their wider historical significance. Inscriptions and oratory provide the bulk of the evidence for this project, along with the so-called Constitution of Athens attributed to Aristotle. Hallowed Stewards not only provides a wealth of detail concerning these hitherto badly understood offices, but also the larger diachronic framework within which they operated.
