Unveiling the Hidden—Anticipating the Future
Author:
Publisher: BRILL
ISBN: 9004445706
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 429
Book Description
In Unveiling the Hidden—Anticipating the Future: Divinatory Practices Among Jews Between Qumran and the Modern Period, Josefina Rodríguez-Arribas and Dorian Gieseler Greenbaum collect ten studies based on primary sources ranging from Qumran to the modern period and covering Europe and the Mediterranean basin. The studies show Jews practising divination (astrology, bibliomancy, physiognomy, dream requests, astral magic, etc.) and implementing the study and practice of the prognostic arts in ways that allowed Jews to make them "Jewish," by avoiding any conflict with Jewish law or halakhah. These studies focus on the Jewish components of this divination, providing specific firsthand details about the practices and their practitioners within their cultural and intellectual contexts—as well as their fears, wishes, and anxieties—using ancient scrolls and medieval manuscripts in Hebrew, Aramaic, and Judaeo-Arabic. Contributors are Michael D. Swartz, Helen R. Jacobus, Alessia Bellusci, Blanca Villuendas Sabaté, Shraga Bar-On, Josefina Rodríguez-Arribas, Amos Geula, Dov Schwartz, Joseph Ziegler, and Charles Burnett.

The Glory Now Revealed
Author: Andrew M. Davis
Publisher: Baker Books
ISBN: 1493430270
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 204
Book Description
Believers know that when we die we enter heaven and will spend eternity there with God and the saints who have gone before us. But what actually happens in heaven? What are we going to be doing there? Won't it get boring at some point? According to Scripture, a large part of our experience of heaven will be a continual revealing of God's glory. Not just his glory in the moment, but during all of time. The mysteries of providence, the hidden movements of God throughout history, and the forgotten and unnoted works of even the most obscure of God's people will be unveiled so that we can see how wise, loving, gracious, and powerful our God is. And though we will experience perfection in heaven, we will never be omniscient, which means we will always be learning more about God's glory, inspiring us to return joyful praise and thanksgiving. If your vision of heaven has been limited to clouds and harps and angels, it's time to expand that view with the truth found in this biblically based look at the afterlife.

Uncovering Hidden Treasures
Author: Samuel C. Tseng
Publisher: WestBow Press
ISBN: 1449712754
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 205
Book Description
Uncovering Hidden Treasures gives you examples of how you can enjoy your Bible Study, instead of reading the Bible just as a dull daily Christian duty. There are truths in the Bible that have long been ignored or misinterpreted by skeptics, seekers, bona fide Christians and even some commentators. Uncovering Hidden Treasures gives you examples and how to avoid them. When you have discovered a new insight during your Bible study, how will you know your new insight and interpretation is a truth intended by God? Uncovering Hidden Treasures suggests criteria that help you know. Uncovering Hidden Treasures gives you examples that people cannot know Gods will unless He reveals it to them and He reveals only as much as they can absorb. As civilization progresses, the Holy Spirit will give additional insight and clarity from the same passages of the Scripture. Uncovering Hidden Treasures gives you examples of how science and technology support the Scripture. For example, have you ever thought that the Bible clearly told us that light has finite speed and the universe is finite and expanding, the facts that have been discovered only in recent centuries? Find it out in verse by verse interpretation of the first two days of the Creation. Is your faith shaken by recent statement of the renowned physicist Stephen Hawking? He stated that God is not needed in the creation of the universe. Uncovering Hidden Treasures gives opposing views and advises you not to worship science or scientists and keep hold of your faith in God. It gives you examples that you need as much faith to believe in science as you believe in the Bible.

From Logos to Trinity
Author: Marian Hillar
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 1139505149
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 333
Book Description
This book presents a critical evaluation of the doctrine of the Trinity, tracing its development and investigating the intellectual, philosophical and theological background that shaped this influential doctrine of Christianity. Despite the centrality of Trinitarian thought to Christianity and its importance as one of the fundamental tenets that differentiates Christianity from Judaism and Islam, the doctrine is not fully formulated in the canon of Christian scriptural texts. Instead, it evolved through the conflation of selective pieces of scripture with the philosophical and religious ideas of ancient Hellenistic milieu. Marian Hillar analyzes the development of Trinitarian thought during the formative years of Christianity from its roots in ancient Greek philosophical concepts and religious thinking in the Mediterranean region. He identifies several important sources of Trinitarian thought heretofore largely ignored by scholars, including the Greek middle-Platonic philosophical writings of Numenius and Egyptian metaphysical writings and monuments representing divinity as a triune entity.
