Book excerpt: This study examines the physical form and cultic function of the biblical cherubim. Previous studies of the cherubim have placed too great an emphasis on archaeological and etymological data. This monograph presents a new synthetic study, which prioritises the evidence supplied by the biblical texts. Biblical exegesis, using literary and historical-critical methods, forms the large part of the investigation (Part I). The findings arising from the exegetical discussion provide the basis upon which comparison with etymological and archaeological data is made (Parts II and III). The results suggest that traditions envisaging the cherubim as tutelary winged quadrupeds, with one head and one set of wings, were supplanted by traditions that conceived of them as more enigmatic, obeisant beings. In the portrayal of the cherubim in Ezekiel and Chronicles, we can detect signs of a conceptual shift that prefigures the description of the cherubim in post-biblical texts, such as The Songs of the Sabbath Sacrifice and the Enochic texts.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This gripping memoir chronicles Willow Koerber Rockwell's heartfelt journey through a life filled with fear and despair... into one imbued with love and healing. She chronicles her difficult childhood-characterized by sexual abuse and isolation-her path to near self-destruction, and the ultimate healing that inspired her to write this book. Willow, 33, a World Cup Champion mountain-bike racer for 17 years, relates details of the intense pressure and fear she has faced throughout her career, and her gradual realization that no amount of winning would ever replace loving or being loved. She recounts dramatic racing experiences and successes, and her equally dramatic falls from grace, and provides agonizing accounts of her self-destructive tendencies and her struggle to love herself and her body unconditionally. Willow's ride has been a spiritual one, full of deep and meaningful lessons, imparted by healers, helpmates, and unexpected guardian angels. She shares the spiritual lessons she has learned along the way; and also reveals to the reader how to train without suffering, and how to accept peace and well-being rather than endlessly striving for perfection. In the last few years of her career, Willow has risen to the top of the sport. She has won two Bronze Medals at the World Championships (2009 and 2010), and she led the World Cup Series for a brief time before eventually finishing second in 2010. In 2011, she was expected to reach the very top of the podium, but life had other plans. She found out that she was six weeks pregnant the day before the first World Cup of 2011, so she didn't race. Circumstances compelled her to rediscover herself, reclaim her identity, and admit that she had never loved or respected herself or her body. It was truly a time to let light in to the dark places she had been repressing since childhood. Willow's book is needed because the energies on this planet are changing. People are being asked to do away with their outdated versions of success and to embrace new ways of living. In striving for perfection, what is important has faded into the background, or has disappeared altogether. Willow dissolves the illusion that if one is the best, that person will be happy. She herself lived that lie for almost 30 years of her life; and it was only when she decided to look long and hard at her life that she realized that all the medals and money and acclaim and magazine covers couldn't give her contentment. It was only when she learned to love herself that the healing could begin. From a place of love and acceptance of the self, a beautiful life can unfold, which is the essence of Willow's story. People can express their passion through any medium they desire; and Willow contends that this is what everyone is seeking. In the end, medals and other material symbols are just dust collectors. The joy of the ride is what matters most.

Book excerpt: The Wheel of Time is now an original series on Prime Video, starring Rosamund Pike as Moiraine! In Crossroads of Twilight, the tenth novel in Robert Jordan’s #1 New York Times bestselling epic fantasy series, The Wheel of Time®, Rand al'Thor and his allies endure trials by fire amidst battles, sacrifices, and treachery. Fleeing from Ebou Dar with the kidnapped Daughter of the Nine Moons, whom he is fated to marry, Mat Cauthon learns that he can neither keep her nor let her go, not in safety for either of them, for both the Shadow and the might of the Seanchan Empire are in deadly pursuit. Perrin Aybara will stop at nothing to free his wife Faile from the Shaido Aiel. Consumed by rage, he offers no mercy to those he takes prisoner. And when he discovers that Masema Dagar, the Prophet of the Dragon, has been conspiring with the Seanchan, Perrin considers making an unholy alliance. Rand al'Thor, the Dragon Reborn himself, has cleansed the Dark One's taint from the male half of the True Source, and everything has changed. Yet nothing has, for only men who can channel believe that saidin is clean again, and a man who can channel is still hated and feared—even one prophesied to save the world. Now, Rand must gamble again, with himself at stake, and he cannot be sure which of his allies are really enemies. Since its debut in 1990, The Wheel of Time® by Robert Jordan has captivated millions of readers around the globe with its scope, originality, and compelling characters.

Book excerpt: From the acclaimed author of Enduring Patagonia comes a dazzling tale of aerial adventure set against the roiling backdrop of war in Asia. The incredible real-life saga of the flying band of brothers who opened the skies over China in the years leading up to World War II—and boldly safeguarded them during that conflict—China’s Wings is one of the most exhilarating untold chapters in the annals of flight. At the center of the maelstrom is the book’s courtly, laconic protagonist, American aviation executive William Langhorne Bond. In search of adventure, he arrives in Nationalist China in 1931, charged with turning around the turbulent nation’s flagging airline business, the China National Aviation Corporation (CNAC). The mission will take him to the wild and lawless frontiers of commercial aviation: into cockpits with daredevil pilots flying—sometimes literally—on a wing and a prayer; into the dangerous maze of Chinese politics, where scheming warlords and volatile military officers jockey for advantage; and into the boardrooms, backrooms, and corridors of power inhabited by such outsized figures as Generalissimo and Madame Chiang Kai-shek; President Franklin Delano Roosevelt; foreign minister T. V. Soong; Generals Arnold, Stilwell, and Marshall; and legendary Pan American Airways founder Juan Trippe. With the outbreak of full-scale war in 1941, Bond and CNAC are transformed from uneasy spectators to active participants in the struggle against Axis imperialism. Drawing on meticulous research, primary sources, and extensive personal interviews with participants, Gregory Crouch offers harrowing accounts of brutal bombing runs and heroic evacuations, as the fight to keep one airline flying becomes part of the larger struggle for China’s survival. He plunges us into a world of perilous night flights, emergency water landings, and the constant threat of predatory Japanese warplanes. When Japanese forces capture Burma and blockade China’s only overland supply route, Bond and his pilots must battle shortages of airplanes, personnel, and spare parts to airlift supplies over an untried five-hundred-mile-long aerial gauntlet high above the Himalayas—the infamous “Hump”—pioneering one of the most celebrated endeavors in aviation history. A hero’s-eye view of history in the grand tradition of Lynne Olson’s Citizens of London, China’s Wings takes readers on a mesmerizing journey to a time and place that reshaped the modern world.

Book excerpt: Gus never imagined himself a parent at thirteen. But in the war-fraught summer of 1942, while living on his grandparents' Vermont farm, he adopts a clutch of orphaned duck eggs. Gus can relate to the foundlings, as he is apart from, and yearns for, his own family. One day Gus finds a young stranger standing over the incubating eggs. Gus doesn't know what to make of her, with her tattered clothing and strange accent, but soon the girl is helping to care for the newly hatched ducklings, and she and Gus become fast friends. Not everyone shares Gus's high opinion of Louise, whose poverty-stricken French-Canadian family is shunned by the townspeople. His attempt to help his friend and her family has some embarrassing consequences and he must make retribution if he is to keep Louise's friendship. Nancy Price Graff's fluid narrative and exceptional eye for detail follow Gus during a time of food rationing, Victory gardens, watching for enemy planes--and keeping his ducks from harm.

Book excerpt: The truth lays dormant; labeled as fiction. Obscured by the hurried desire to explain celestial and geological events in terms of the times; events were given character and portrayed as people who were then transformed into Gods. Patiently, the truth waits within our lore. Science Within reveals the true meanings to the stories of mythology and Bible. Its main focus is on the Earth's Core and how this object shows up in the ancient writings and modern, scientific observations both local and celestial.
