Book Description
It has been many generations since the Pegasus herd had been destroyed. There were still a few descendants left, but none had manifested any of the special qualities of the original, such as the wings or magical gifts. Until the birth of a young colt. The Winged Warrior of the Gods depicts the expeditions of the new Pegasus. Raised in seclusion, the young Pegasus is groomed by his father and the spirit of his ancestor, the original Pegasus. He is being prepared to conquer the evil Bardama, who is spreading darkness across the world. On his first mission searching for Bardama, Pegasus discovers a very frail young girl. The child princess knows nothing of the world beyond stories told by the sailors from visiting ships. Caseama cries out to the gods for a champion to be sent to conquer the dark forces that have taken her parents into captivity. Young Pegasus has come to answer her prayer by commission of the gods. After the transformation bestowed upon her by Athena, Caseama is transformed into a hoyden warrior, given the courage of her mother's Amazon ancestors. Though her prayers were answered, she was surprised to find that she was to become the hero she so fervently prayed for.

Yahweh among the Gods
Author: Michael Hundley
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 1108582273
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 421
Book Description
In this study, Michael Hundley explores the diverse deities of ancient Near Eastern and biblical literature, from deified doors and diseases to the masters of the universe. Using data from Mesopotamia, Hittite Anatolia, Egypt, the Levant, and non-priestly Genesis and Exodus, Hundley explains their context-specific approach to deity, which produces complex and seemingly contradictory portraits. He suggests that ancient deities gained prominence primarily by co-opting the attributes of other deities, rather than by denying their existence or inventing new powers. He demonstrates that the primary difference between biblical and ancient Near Eastern presentations lies in their rhetorical goals, not their conceptions of gods. While others promote divine supremacy, Genesis and Exodus promote exclusive worship. Hundley argues that this monolatry redefined the biblical divine sphere and paved the way for the later development of monotheism and monotheistic explanations of evil.

Religions and Trade
Author:
Publisher: BRILL
ISBN: 9004255303
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 393
Book Description
In Religions and Trade a number of international scholars investigate the ways in which eastern and western religions were formed and transformed from the perspective of "trade." Trade changes religions. Religions expand through the help of trade infrastructures, and religions extend and enrich the trade relations with cultural and religious "commodities" which they contribute to the “market place” of human culture and religion. This leads to the inclusion, demarcation and densification as well as the amalgamation of religious traditions. In an attempt to find new pathways into the world of religious dynamics, this collection of essays focuses on four elements or “commodities” of religious interchange: topologies of religious space, religious symbol systems, religious knowledge, and religious-ethical ways of life. Contributors include: Christoph Auffarth, Izak Cornelius, Georgios Halkias, Geoffrey Herman, Livia Kohn, Al Makin, Jason Neelis, Volker Rabens, Abhishek Singh Amar, Loren Stuckenbruck, Joan Goodnick Westenholz, Peter Wick, Michael Willis, and Sylvia Winkelmann.

Publisher: Fortress Press

Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 172
Book Description
Between the Sea and the Sky is an inquiry into the religious world of a traditional fishing community on the Southwest coast of India. It explores the vital role religious and spiritual beliefs play in sustaining people in such a precarious, even deadly occupation. Despite periodic natural calamities and the extreme challenges that accompany their everyday lives, a remarkable spirit of resilience is evident in this coastal community. Using the concept of 'lived religion,' Mathew explores the theological, religious, and spiritual contours of this remarkable community, and draws from them broader insights into the nature of belief.
