Bible Stories in Poetry by Erle K. ChanChue Pdf

Delilah told the lord of the Philistines and they shaved his head, Then his strength went from him, and he was good as dead, The Philistines took him and put out his eyes, But it was too late for Samson, so to the Lord he cried. After realizing he was living an unfulfilling existence, Erle K. ChanChue was guided to accept Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior by Chinese missionaries. In a debut collection, ChanChue shares inspirational poems inspired by biblical characters to spread the good news and help other believers better understand the power of God. Through examples such as Manoah, Samson, Moab, Ruth, Naomi, and many others, ChanChue lyrically illustrates the importance of calling on God for strength and grace during both challenging and joyful times in life. Bible Stories in Poetry is a volume of verse that relies on biblical characters to inspire Christians to renew their faith in Jesus Christ.

The Bible and Poetry by Michael Edwards Pdf

A fresh, provocative look at the link between poetry and Christianity, both as it relates to the Bible itself as well as to Christian and religious life, by an accomplished scholar. The Bible is full of poems. In the Old Testament, there are the Psalms and the Song of Songs, the great exhortations and lamentations of the Prophets, and passages of poetry woven in throughout. In the New Testament, Jesus describes the kingdom of heaven with poetic epithets such as “a treasure hid in a field,” calling the Son of God “the true vine,” “the light of the world,” “the good shepherd,” and “the way, the truth, and the life.” The Gospels reverberate with allusions to the poetry of the Old Testament; the last book of all is Revelation, a visionary poem. The Bible, in other words, asks to be read poetically from start to end, and yet readers have rarely considered what that might mean, much less heeded that call. In The Bible and Poetry, the poet and scholar Michael Edwards reshapes our understanding of the Bible and religious belief, arguing that poetry is not an ornamental or accidental feature but is central to both. He speaks personally of his early, unanticipated, transformative encounters with scripture. He offers close, insightful, and resonant readings of biblical passages. Poetry, as he sees it, is the vital and necessary medium of the Creator’s word, and the truth of the Bible is not a question of precepts and propositions but of a direct experience of its poetry, its power.

An Introduction to the Old Testament Poetic Books by C. Hassell Bullock Pdf

The poetic books of the Old Testament--Job, Psalms, Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, Song of Solomon--are often called humankind's reach toward God. The other books of the Old Testament picture God's reach toward man through the redemptive story. Yet these five books reveal the very hear of men and women struggling with monumental issues such as suffering, sin, forgiveness, joy, worship, and the passionate love between a man and woman. C. Hassell Bullock, a noted Old Testament scholar, delves deep into the hearts of the five poetic books, offering readers helpful details such as harmeneutical considerations for each book, theological content and themes, detailed analysis of each book, and cultural perspectives. Hebrew is a language of "intrinsic musical quality that naturally supports poetic expression," says Bullock in his introduction. That poetic expression comes from the heart of the Old Testament writers and reaches all of us exactly where we are in our own struggles and joys.

Poets of the Bible: From Solomon's Song of Songs to John's Revelation by Anonim Pdf

“The vividness and beauty of the language emerge in a fresh way . . . with evocative simplicity.” —Robert Alter, professor emeritus of Hebrew and comparative literature, University of California, Berkeley The world’s greatest poetry resides in the Bible, yet these major poets are traditionally rendered into prose. In this pioneering volume of biblical poets translated in English, Willis Barnstone restores the lyricism and power of the poets’ voices in both the New and Old Testaments. In the Hebrew Bible we hear Solomon rhapsodize in Song of Songs, David chant in Psalms, God and Job debate in grand rhetoric, and prophet poet Isaiah plead for peace. Jesus speaks in wisdom verse in the Gospel, Paul is a philosopher of love, and John of Patmos roars majestically in Revelation, the Bible’s epic poem. This groundbreaking volume includes every major biblical poem from Genesis and Adam and Eve in the Garden to the last pages of Alpha and Omega in Paradise.

In The Art of Biblical Poetry, his companion to the seminal The Art of Biblical Narrative, Alter takes his analysis beyond narrative craft to investigate the use of Hebrew poetry in the Bible. Updated with a new preface, myriad revisions, and passages from Alter's own critically acclaimed biblical translations, The Art of Biblical Poetry is an indispensable tool for understanding the Bible and its poetry.

God Has a Plan by Erwin Parent Pdf

I was a student of the Bible from an early age. I was always fascinated by the stories from both the Old and New Testaments and always tried to apply the lessons learned to my own life. After spending years as a Sunday School Teacher, the Bible stories have stayed with me. I read the Bible every day; it has helped me enormously over the years. I am not ashamed to admit, that I prayed to God each time to send me a wonderful wife. I was never disappointed and will continue to communicate with Him on a regular basis. The inspiration for the poetry comes from many sources. A thought while driving or a thought that comes while watching something on television. In one case it was an incident that inspired me. I will on occasion place at the bottom of the poem, what it was that inspired the poem. This book of poems will be in three sections. - Poems of inspiration from my faith whatever the source - Poems from Bible references or from Bible Stories - Poems from my own personal life. Those produced from my own experiences that lifted me from my pit of despair or helped me to understand better God's love and inspiration Erwin Parent is now retired after completing a near 60-year career in Information Technology. He began writing poetry after the death of his first wife, Virginia, after a 35-year marriage. He has not stopped writing since. Erwin lost two wives to Ovarian Cancer. When discovered, they were both terminal and passed away in a matter of weeks. He kept them both at home and was alone with them both in the end. He wrote this book to help others who may be grieving after losing a loved one. He writes. "My time was not spent with grief, gloom and doom but was filled with Gods presence and inspiration" Please share information about this book with friends and family who may be going through this process now. Erwin's second book, "Thank God for You" a book of Love Poems is currently available on Amazon. Erwin is a native of Boston MA. He relocated to CA in the 1970's. Erwin currently resides with family in Modesto CA. He has an active Facebook Page as well as an Author Erwin Parent Facebook Page. In addition to his books already published, he has several other books of poetry planned: The Four Seasons in Poetry - Poems of inspiration from the changing Seasons An Endless Row of White Crosses - Poems of inspiration from his own military experience in the U.S. Army Signal Corps. He was stationed in France, but was a member of an Honor Guard that also traveled to other locations in Europe for various events.
