Mountain Messages
Author: Don Harville
Publisher: WestBow Press
ISBN: 1664267166
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 215
Book Description
Mountains are spectacular, picturesque and common subjects in art and literature. Even the authors of the Bible were enamored with the mountains. The Middle East is not quite so famous for its mountains but the Bible contains over 542 references to mountains! They are quite common as figurative symbols in literature as well as specific key geographic locations. The Bible begins with the creation account (first mention of mountains in Genesis 7) and ends with Revelation with Christ’s return where He is standing on the Mount of Olives outside of Jerusalem. Famous and well-known events are recorded at specific mountain sites such as Mount Ararat, Carmel, or Mount Sinai. Then there are mentions of obscure mountains like Mount Zemaraim or Perazim where notable meetings or battles or events occurred. Mountains can also be used to represent features or characteristics such as obstacles or the permanence/steadfastness/immovable nature of something, or national governments and kingdoms. This devotional book is a look at 100 mountain passages in the Bible. It is not a complete study of the mountains in the Bible. It is not a book on geography, geology, or archaeology. The real purpose of these devotions is to learn how mountains were a significant part of the Biblical landscape and what they can teach us about God and His character. Instead of merely looking at their physical beauty, we can look at them and recall God’s beauty, His character and most of all His love for us. My prayer is that this will lead you to praise His name – with all creation and with all you got!

Ezekiel
Author: Peter C. Craigie
Publisher: Westminster John Knox Press
ISBN: 9780664245740
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 340
Book Description
This illuminating study enables the reader to better understand the vocation and message of an extraordinary prophet. The message Ezekiel delivered to the people of Babylon centered on the holiness of God. Even though he foretold doom and judgement, the prophet held out the promise of hope, based on the continuing mercy and forgiveness of God. Carrying forward brilliantly the pattern established by Barclay's New Testament series, the Daily Study Bible has been extended to cover the entire Old Testament as well. Invaluable for individual devotional study, for group discussion, and for classroom use, the Daily Study Bible provides a useful, reliable, and eminently readable way to discover what the Scriptures were saying then and what God is saying today.
