Book Description
Young school Mistress Hallie Donahoe’s life in the backwoods beyond the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia changes in one tragic moment the day her beloved mother, father, and their home are swept away by a flash flood. Weeks later, she is whisked away to live with a close friend of her father’s, who has two daughters of his own. Suddenly, she finds herself in genteel Virginia society and exposed to the growing tensions in the pre-Revolution American colonies in 1775. Exploring an old horse path one day, Hallie discovers a charming place she learns is called Little Eden. The owner is none other than an intriguing rogue she was introduced to at a roadside inn by her new guardian, Morley Chewning. The mysterious Zechariah Bishop has a woman ensconced in his guest house, while his two young nieces share his magnificent home. But just who is Wilhelmina? And who are the redcoat officers visiting Father Chewning? Little by little, Hallie is drawn first to the house and its magical grounds, then to the darling nieces, and then overwhelmingly to Zechariah. But can she trust Zechariah with her heart?

Jesus and Time
Author: Ma'afu Palu
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 0567049639
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 319
Book Description
This work offers an examination of Jesus' conception of time on the basis of Mark 1.15. Palu contends that the background which makes Mark 1.15 most intelligible is God's covenant with day and night which is established in the act of creation, specified in prophetic eschatology, and developed in Second Temple literature; it is God's commitment to give day and night in their appointed time, promising the restoration of Israel under David's offspring. On the basis of recent developments in scholarly literature concerning the Greek verbal aspect, this study argues that the perfect verbs in Mark 1.15 denote an ongoing dynamic of time fulfilment, closely tied to the ultimate restoration of Israel. This begins with the appearance of Jesus during the days of John the Baptist and is mapped onto two phases of the horizon of Jesus' view of time. Palu concludes that the biblical notion of time is to be tied intimately to the hope of the restoration of Israel, ultimately manifested as the establishment of the Kingdom of God.

Creation in Six Days
Author: James B. Jordan
Publisher: Canon Press & Book Service
ISBN: 1885767625
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 272
Book Description
Creation in Six Days offers an exegetical, literary, and theological defense of the traditional interpretation of the Genesis account of six-day creation. Jordan's account is primarily designed to answer any approach to the text of Genesis, such as the increasingly popular Framework Hypothesis, that pits the text's literary features against its historical and narrative sense. Beyond his exegetical critique of several prominent positions, Jordan offers a constructive reading of the early parts of Genesis and also seeks to uncover the assumptions which attract people to the Framework Interpretation and similar views. The explanation, he says, lies in the acceptance of many of the questionable assumptions of modern science on the part of most Christians today, coupled with the pervasiveness of a gnostic or nonhistorical attitude toward the Christian faith.

Psalm Conversations
Author: James O. Chatham
Publisher: Liturgical Press
ISBN: 0814644848
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 126
Book Description
The Psalms’ insights are remarkable, unexpected, eye-opening. They have vital things to say to us if we listen intently to the ancient wisdom, much of which has been lost to modern ears. Using the insights of the “shape and shaping of the Psalms” work done by Psalms scholars over the past twenty-five years, James Chatham presents an inviting study for nonexperts to explore the interactions that various psalms have with one another. The book invites us to listen in on several psalm conversations, to realize how contemporary they are, and to join them. Chatham encourages us to immerse ourselves in the mind, heart, and world of the Psalms editor, to get to know those editors well, and to realize that their world was, in important ways, very much like ours. Through this process, the messages spoken by the Psalms editors emerge with words of faith about everyday issues in human living, both then and now.
