Book Description
What can a Jewish scholar and theologian teach a Christian about Christianity? Plenty! Michael Rood proves God's power with hold - in - your - hand evidence. He explodes long - held Christian traditions and skillfully uses the bible to lead us back to irrefutable truths from the Word of God. In Book 1: Sodom and Gomorrah Revisited, what appeared to be distant, non - descript rock formations in the middle of the sun - parched Israeli desert turn out to be the ashen remains of the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah - still standing and covered with millions of chunks of brimstone! Join Rood on the shore of the Dead Sea, where the quest for these ancient cities begins. In Book 2: Truth vs. Tradition: The Heavyweight Battle of the Ages, traditions can blind us from the truth and cause us to wander in the myopic fog of man - made religion for an entire lifetime. Join Rood on a journey ''out of Babylon'' and away from its pagan traditions to uncover long - lost truths preserved in the Bible. The reader is invited to leave behind his modern, western Gentile mentality behind as Rood explores Scriptures from a Hebrew perspective. This is the paradigm shift for which readers have been waiting their entire lifetimes.

Pages : 313
Book Description
Annotation This collection challenges the tendency among scholars of ancient Greece to see magical and religious ritual as mutually exclusive and to ignore "magical" practices in Greek religion. The contributors survey specific bodies of archaeological, epigraphical, and papyrological evidence formagical practices in the Greek world, and, in each case, determine whether the traditional dichotomy between magic and religion helps in any way to conceptualize the objective features of the evidence examined. Contributors include Christopher A. Faraone, J.H.M. Strubbe, H.S. Versnel, Roy Kotansky, John Scarborough, Samuel Eitrem, Fritz Graf, John J. Winkler, Hans Dieter Betz, and C.R. Phillips.

In the Company of Demons
Author: Armando Maggi
Publisher: University of Chicago Press
ISBN: 0226501299
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 257
Book Description
Who are the familiar spirits of classical culture and what is their relationship to Christian demons? In its interpretation of Latin and Greek culture, Christianity contends that Satan is behind all classical deities, semi-gods, and spiritual creatures, including the gods of the household, the lares and penates.But with In the Company of Demons, the world’s leading demonologist Armando Maggi argues that the great thinkers of the Italian Renaissance had a more nuanced and perhaps less sinister interpretation of these creatures or spiritual bodies. Maggi leads us straight to the heart of what Italian Renaissance culture thought familiar spirits were. Through close readings of Giovan Francesco Pico della Mirandola, Strozzi Cigogna, Pompeo della Barba, Ludovico Sinistrari, and others, we find that these spirits or demons speak through their sudden and striking appearances—their very bodies seen as metaphors to be interpreted. The form of the body, Maggi explains, relies on the spirits’ knowledge of their human interlocutors’ pasts. But their core trait is compassion, and sometimes their odd, eerie arrivals are seen as harbingers or warnings to protect us. It comes as no surprise then that when spiritual beings distort the natural world to communicate, it is vital that we begin to listen.

Category : Explosions

Book Description
"In April 1916, shortly before the commencement of the Battle of the Somme, a fire started in a vast munitions works located in the Kent marshes.

He offers a chilling natural history of explosives and their effects on the earth, on buildings, and on human and animal bodies. And he evokes with vivid clarity the interaction of human imperatives and the natural world in one of Britain's strangest and most distinctive landscapes - where he has been a habitual explorer for many years. The Great Explosion is a profound work of narrative, exploration and inquiry form one of our most brilliant writers." --Jacket flap.
