Download or read book Vergil's Empire written by Eve Adler and published by Rowman & Littlefield Publishers. This book was released on 2004-09-01 with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Vergil's Empire, Eve Adler offers an exciting new interpretation of the political thought of Vergil's Aeneid. Adler argues that in this epic poem, Vergil presents the theoretical foundations of a new political order, one that resolves the conflict between scientific enlightenment and ancestral religion that permeated the ancient world. The work concentrates on Vergil's response to the physics, psychology, and political implications of Lucretius' Epicurean doctrine expressed in De Rerum Natura. Proceeding by a close analysis of the Aeneid, Adler examines Vergil's critique of Carthage as a model of universal enlightenment, his positive doctrine of Rome as a model of universal religion, and his criticism of the heroism of Achilles, Odysseus, and Epicurus in favor of the heroism of Aeneas. Beautifully written and clearly argued, Vergil's Empire will be of great value to all interested in the classical world.
Book Synopsis The Restoration of God’s Dwelling and Kingdom by : Peter Nyende
Download or read book The Restoration of God’s Dwelling and Kingdom written by Peter Nyende and published by Langham Publishing. This book was released on 2023-03-31 with total page 371 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The church in Africa is thriving, both numerically and in its boldness and fervour. Yet the challenge of African folk Christianity – a Christianity shaped more by traditional beliefs than the Bible – continues to loom large, and there remains an acute need for life and faith to be biblically informed. In this introduction to biblical theology, Prof. Peter Nyende draws from nearly two decades of experience teaching the next generation of African church leaders. Maintaining the vital importance of a holistic understanding of Scripture and its unified nature, he presents the central story of both Old and New Testaments as the restoration of God’s dwelling and kingdom in the world. He traces this narrative through its many stages of development — creation and fall, God’s covenants with Israel, exile — to its ultimate fulfilment in Jesus, the church and the new Jerusalem. Though written with pastors and theological students in mind, this book is accessible to any who desire to increase their biblical literacy and partner more fully with the work of God and his kingdom.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the 2009 Christianity Today Award for Biblical Studies, Stories with Intent offers pastors and students a comprehensive and accessible guide to Jesus' parables. Klyne Snodgrass explores in vivid detail the historical context in which these stories were told, the part they played in Jesus' overall message, and the ways in which they have been interpreted in the church and the academy. Snodgrass begins by surveying the primary issues in parables interpretation and providing an overview of other parables—often neglected in the discussion—from the Old Testament, Jewish writings, and the Greco-Roman world. He then groups the more important parables of Jesus thematically and offers a comprehensive treatment of each, exploring both background and significance for today. This tenth anniversary edition includes a substantial new chapter that surveys developments in the interpretation of parables since the book's original 2008 publication.

Book Synopsis Rooted and Grounded in Love by : Timothy Reinhold Eberhart
Download or read book Rooted and Grounded in Love written by Timothy Reinhold Eberhart and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2017-06-05 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: God's invitation to join in the love feast of Holy Communion resounds at the very heart of the Christian faith and life. But how are Christians faithfully to gather together in relational bonds of love--in particular, through our daily bread and common cup--amidst a global market economy sustained by social and ecological violence? Drawing on the holiness-communitarian and agrarian-ecological traditions, Rooted and Grounded in Love provides a systematic theological affirmation of holiness as divine wholeness in examining our present industrial agro-economy while also promoting a practical vision for how Christians might participate in the emergence of a more ecologically sustaining, economically charitable, and politically just food system.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prince Alexander has just turned twenty, instigating crucial events in his life and the Kingdom of Aylon. Under instructions from his father, King Xavion, Alexander’s first order of business is to choose a young lady with the birthright of Aylon and honor her in making her his wife and eventual queen. Already overwhelmed with his royal duties, Alexander approaches the next chapter of his life without any idea of the surprises that lie ahead for him. When his father prods him to treat a visiting princess as his personal guest during her extended stay in Aylon before she returns to her fiancé in Darnell, Alexander reluctantly agrees—until he feels an almost instantaneous chemistry with Arayna that soon leads to forbidden romance. After Alexander discovers his purpose is much deeper than taking the throne, he and Arayna begin an emotional and strategic battle to live life, rather than allowing life to live them. But as Alexander breaks the conventions of his position and era, he puts everything at risk in order to pursue his dreams. In this historical romance, a prince embarks on a touching, coming-of-age journey where he hopes to discover himself, his purpose, and true love.

Download or read book Bacon: The History of the Reign of King Henry VII and Selected Works written by Francis Bacon and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1998-02-19 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a major student edition of the text described as 'the first modern classic of English history'. Bacon's penetration into human motives, his life-long experience of politics and government, and his remarkable literary skills, render this History of the Reign of King Henry VII a major work of English literature and an important document in the history of political thought. The introduction places Bacon's History in the context of Renaissance historiography, revealing its debt to Tacitus, and shows Bacon's originality in re-ordering traditional material to make a coherent psychological analysis of the King's actions. In addition to the usual series features and supporting contextual material (including relevant Essays by Bacon), generous editorial footnotes explain the historical and political issues of the reign of Henry VII, and a substantial glossary clarifies Bacon's rich but sometimes unfamiliar vocabulary.
Book Synopsis The Impact Of Reason On Faith, Ethics And Belief by : Geran F. Dodson
Download or read book The Impact Of Reason On Faith, Ethics And Belief written by Geran F. Dodson and published by Vernon Press. This book was released on 2016-04-11 with total page 211 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of the book is to examine the theological claims of ethics, faith and belief from a philosophical perspective. The Abrahamic and Mosaic covenants of the Old Testament, Jesus of the synoptic gospels, and Paul’s writings serve as the frame of reference in examining a biblical expression of reason and structured logic. The message of Jesus centered on the Kingdom of God, defined the meaning of faith and belief, established a new ethic, and framed the message in logic forms. The life and death of Jesus brought the realization of God’s final covenant as prophesied by the Old Testament. However, Paul appropriated and developed the Jesus of history into the mythological eschatological Christ figure. The clash of philosophy and theology is evident with theological presuppositions that are based on spiritual insight and divine revelation. Logic in scripture employs propositions based primarily on revealed proof that is within the context of that which cannot be proven absolutely. Uncovering the identity of YHWH in the manuscripts and religious practices of Canaanite culture clearly associated YHWH with the polytheism of the Ugarit texts. YHWH was one of the seventy sons of the Canaanite Most High God El and took on a unique identity that was rooted in El and the polytheistic nature of the pantheon of gods. Theological truths stand within the context of faith and reason stands apart from faith and infers only that which can be proven based on evidence. That which is knowable by faith cannot be known by reason since reason cannot validate that which is not proven to exist.
