Ancient Treasures
Author: Brian Haughton
Publisher: Red Wheel/Weiser
ISBN: 1601635486
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 257
Book Description
The author of Hidden History offers a fascinating tour through centuries of buried riches, stolen artifacts, and other true tales of treasure. The allure of treasure has captivated people for centuries. But is it purely a desire for wealth that draws us to tales of hidden riches, or is it also the romantic appeal of uncovering lost ancient artifacts? The stories behind the loss and recovery of ancient treasures often read like historical suspense fiction. In Ancient Treasures, readers discover the true histories of lost hoards, looted archaeological artifacts, and sunken treasures, including: The Sevso Treasure, a hoard of large silver vessels from the late Roman Empire—estimated to be worth $200 million—looted in the 1970s and sold on the black market. The Amber Room, a chamber decoration of amber panels backed with gold leaf and mirrors, stolen by the Nazis in 1941 and brought to the castle at Königsberg in Russia, from which it disappeared. The fabulous wealth of Roman and Viking hoards buried in the ground for safekeeping, only to be unearthed centuries later by humble metal detectorists. The wrecks of the Spanish treasure fleets, whose New World plunder has been the target of elaborate salvage attempts by modern treasure hunters

Daniel Eleven Mysteries
Author: Gordon Ziegler
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1493166131
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 466
Book Description
Some prophecies, like Daniel 2, for the most part, have been well understood by God’s people for hundreds of years. Daniel 11 is different. Though the symbols are thrown off in that prophecy, and the angel prophesies in plain language, the prophecy has been more difficult because so many applications have presented themselves to scholars, and it has not been clear which application is correct. That is particularly true of the last verses of Daniel 11. The author has solved that problem by making all of the applications correct one after another in a sequence. He finds there are more applications of the last verses of Daniel 11 than of any other known prophecy of scripture (seven)! No wonder the prophecy has been intractable so long! The author does careful exegesis and develops an unparalleled hermeneutic base for accurate interpretations (24 hermeneutic principles). The research is not fruitless or moot; because several earth shaking results are brought to view. Ellen White points out the truth “that the promises and threatenings of God are alike conditional.” 1SM 67. If the conditions were right, any of the last-day prophecies could be shortened by a Revelation 11:15-19 experience. Then let not the reader become irrevocably fixed on the scenario of events in this book. Prophecy will still be fulfilled no matter how events come to pass. And the 24 hermeneutic principles will hold true regardless. The reader will recognize the truth of the prophecies however they are fulfilled. God bless the reader as he/she reads and attempts to digest this book. May you learn from it precious things showing the nearness of the coming of Jesus. Amen.

Cultural Heritage Issues
Author: James A.R. Nafziger
Publisher: BRILL
ISBN: 9004189920
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 488
Book Description
The global community, dependent as always on the cooperation of nation states, is gradually learning to address the serious threats to the cultural heritage of our disparate but shared civilizations. The legacy of conquest, colonialization, and commerce looms large in defining and explaining these threats. The essays contained in this challenging volume are based on papers presented at an international conference on cultural heritage issues that took place at Willamette University . The conference sought to generate fresh ideas about these cultural heritage issues; offer a good sense of their nuances and complexities; and reveal how culture, law, and ethics can interact, complement, diverge, and contradict one another. This book seeks to accomplish these purposes. What it explores is the fact that, allong with an emerging blend of adversarial and collaborative processes to address cultural heritage issues, has come a substantial broadening of the normative framework in recent years. This framework now spans a welter of issues ranging from the creation of cultural safety zones during armed conflict, to the ongoing rectification of genocidal conquest during the European Holocaust and World War II, to the treatment of shipwrecks and their cargo, to the protection of folklore and other intangibles, to the promotion of traditional knowledge in the interest of biological diversity. All of these topics are controversial, as are the legal instruments that incorporate them, but the issues they embrace are vital to us all, whether our viewpoint is in the global arena, a national legislature, a courtroom, a classroom, an archaeological site, or a museum.

Daniel and the Revelation
Author: Gordon Ziegler
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1493166212
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 136
Book Description
Daniel and Revela-tion have been studied a long time now, and even some persons have con-cluded that some prophe-cies in Daniel and Reve-lation are multiple appli-cation prophecies. But this commentator has never before seen a book with parallel applications of the prophecies. That is here provided for the reader. The reader will notice that the parallel applications of Daniel 2, 7, 8, and 9 have only three parallel applications drawn out, whereas a portion of Daniel 11 has more drawn out. That is because the commentator has found seven legiti-mate applications of a portion of Daniel 11 (ending with the Ottoman Empire; Nazi Germany; Syria; Iraq; Northern United States; Russia; and the United Nations). To present the seven applica-tions of a portion of Daniel 11, the scriptural text had to be repeated. The Historic application was also repeated along-side the text for com-parison purposes with the other applications. All of the prophetic applications shown or un-shown are or were con-ditional prophecies. For the first applications, however, the conditions have already been met, and the prophecies have been fulfilled. For those applications still un-ful-filled, however, they can be truncated (shortened) at any time by a Rev. 11:15-19 experience.

The Vision of All
Author: Curtis A. Routley
Publisher: Author House
ISBN: 1463427565
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 132
Book Description
The Vision Of All is the first book to contain a sequential flow of Bible Prophecy. It does not contain the doctrines and traditions of men. Reanalyzing the foundational scriptures for the doctrine of the revival of the Roman Empire; it asks the one question whose answer completely destroys the doctrine and leads to the identity given by the Lord Himself: the King of Assyria who will be the ruler of the union of Syria and Iraq. You see, native born Roman citizens did not destroy the temple, Jerusalem, and the nation of Israel. The Lord Himself said (Isaiah 7:14-20) that Assyrians and Egyptians would do this job after the son was born of the virgin. Since the word of the Lord is true, Assyrians and Egyptians came to do the job. Were they Roman soldiers when they came? Yes they were. The Roman General Titus used the Tenth Fretensis from Damascus, Syria, and the Fifteenth Appolonaris from Alexandria, Egypt. Were they Roman citizens when they came? Yes they were, but only by means of draft inducement. Goodby revival of the Roman Empire. Hello, King of Assyria. The second Lord Himself passage likewise does away with the doctrine of Rapture Next theology. (1 Thessalonians 4:13-18) Verses 16 and 17 clearly read the catching up follows the dead in Christ rising first. So the answer to the question of When does the Rapture occur? was always easy, it was after the Resurrection. Martha knew the resurrection took place on the last day.(John 11:22-24) Even the Lord said He would raise them up on the last day. (John 6:38-40) I do not believe the Lord God of Creation was confused about what He said; so end your confusion and believe what He said. Then prophecy is simple.

Go, Went, Gone

Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 349
Book Description
New York Times Notable Book 2018; Foreign Affairs Best Book of 2018; Lois Roth Award Winner An unforgettable German bestseller about the European refugee crisis: “Erpenbeck will get under your skin” (Washington Post Book World) Go, Went, Gone is the masterful new novel by the acclaimed German writer Jenny Erpenbeck, “one of the most significant German-language novelists of her generation” (The Millions). The novel tells the tale of Richard, a retired classics professor who lives in Berlin. His wife has died, and he lives a routine existence until one day he spies some African refugees staging a hunger strike in Alexanderplatz. Curiosity turns to compassion and an inner transformation, as he visits their shelter, interviews them, and becomes embroiled in their harrowing fates. Go, Went, Gone is a scathing indictment of Western policy toward the European refugee crisis, but also a touching portrait of a man who finds he has more in common with the Africans than he realizes. Exquisitely translated by Susan Bernofsky, Go, Went, Gone addresses one of the most pivotal issues of our time, facing it head-on in a voice that is both nostalgic and frightening.
