Book Description
Most readers do not know about the Bible used almost universally by early Christians, or about how that Bible was birthed, how it grew to prominence, and how it differs from the one used as the basis for most modern translations. Although it was one of the most important events in the history of our civilization, the translation of the Hebrew Scriptures into Greek in the third century BCE is an event almost unknown outside of academia. Timothy Michael Law offers the first book to make this topic accessible to a wider audience. Retrospectively, we can hardly imagine the history of Christian thought, and the history of Christianity itself, without the Old Testament. When the Emperor Constantine adopted the Christian faith, his fusion of the Church and the State ensured that the Christian worldview (which by this time had absorbed Jewish ideals that had come to them through the Greek translation) would leave an imprint on subsequent history. This book narrates in a fresh and exciting way the story of the Septuagint, the Greek Scriptures of the ancient Jewish Diaspora that became the first Christian Old Testament.

Book Description
"Survivals and New Arrivals: The Old and New Enemies of the Catholic Church" is a work in Catholic Apologetics by author and historian Hilaire Belloc. In the book Belloc defends the Roman Catholic Church as occupying the "central position in the scheme of reality; for truth is one and error multiple". He seeks to demonstrate the different phases of the battle against Catholicism by dividing them into two categories: those older historical accusations he calls the "Survivals" and the newer emerging ideas he refers to as the "Arrivals".
