Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 1672
Book Description
This extract from the Eerdmans Commentary on the Bible provides Coggin’s introduction to and concise commentary on First and Second Chronicles. The Eerdmans Commentary on the Bible presents, in nontechnical language, the best of modern scholarship on each book of the Bible, including the Apocrypha.

Chronicles of a Cabin Crew
Author: Soraia Naves Nakib
Publisher: Trafford Publishing
ISBN: 1466922877
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 293
Book Description
Chronicles of a Cabin Crew took almost two years to be concluded. It is the sequel of Underneath a Flight Attendant, which is Soraia's biography and first novel. The author emphasizes the importance of some chapters on the introduction (foreword) of the book. Nostradamus's chapter is one of those also mentioned in the cover of this book. Soraia comes from a psychic/medium family and is openly sharing her premonitions for the near future (2013-14) with the world. She also finds herself very funny and loves to bring laughter into others people's lives. She's created this extroverted book that will entertain you and make you laugh rather than being just about her serious paranormal experiences. "I keep telling people that I have no hidden agenda rather trying to spread the truth. My premonitions have never betrayed me. If I'm looking forward to becoming famous, it is only with the purpose to enable my message to be heard and accepted without skepticism. I believe that we are at the edge of an era lacking love, but mostly understanding of God."

The Scriptures in the Book of Revelation and Apocalyptic Literature
Author: Susan Docherty
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 0567695921
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 271
Book Description
This volume addresses one of the key issues in the study of the Book of Revelation and the apocalyptic genre more broadly the re-use within these texts of the Jewish Scriptures. A range of expert contributors analyse specific themes and passages, and also explore wider methodological questions, aiming particularly to engage with the ground-breaking work in this field of Steve Moyise. Divided into three sections, the book first focuses on hermeneutical questions, such as the role of 'typology' in interpretation, and the relationship between the 'original meaning' of a scriptural text and the sense it acquires in a new literary context. In the following section, a series of chapters offers detailed exegetical engagement with the Book of Revelation. These probe the scriptural background of some of its major theological themes (e.g. time, sounds and silence) and significant passages (e.g. the Song of the Lamb and other hymns), and highlight fresh aspects of its reception by both ancient and modern audiences. The final section considers the place of scripture and its interpretation in a selection of other early Jewish and early Christian apocalyptic writings (including 1 Enoch, Paul's Letters and the First Apocryphal Apocalypse of John).

Opening the Sealed Book
Author: Joseph Blenkinsopp
Publisher: Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing
ISBN: 1467427837
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 336
Book Description
Of all the texts in the Hebrew and Christian scriptures, perhaps no book has a more colorful history of interpretation than Isaiah. A comprehensive history of this interpretation between the prophet Malachi and the first days of Christianity, Joseph Blenkinsopp's Opening the Sealed Book traces three different prophetic traditions in Isaiah -- the "man of God," the critic of social structures, and the apocalyptic seer. Blenkinsopp explores the place of Isaiah in Jewish sectarianism, at Qumran, and among early Christians, touching on a number of its themes, including exile, "the remnant of Israel," martyrdom, and "the servant of the Lord." Encompassing several disciplines -- hermeneutics, the Dead Sea Scrolls, Second Temple studies, Christian origins -- Opening the Sealed Book will appeal to Jewish and Christian scholars as well as readers fascinated by the intricate and influential prophetic visions of Isaiah.
