The Book of Lilith by Robert G. Brown Pdf

"The book of Lilith tells the real story of creation. Lilith is the first human to be given a soul by God following a thirteen billion year process of mechanical, soulless evolution. Her job is to give souls to all things and awaken them to the Watcher that watches the watcher, watching the world. The first person she grants a soul to is Adam, who is given a job of his own: to invent the definition of sin, create a moral sense in a world that utterly lacks one, and hence bring about the rule of law in a compassionate society. Unfortunately, Adam has a hard time accepting the fact that he was given his soul second, instead of first, and by Lilith, not God. The conflict this engenders leads to the destruction of Eden, the creation of Eve, and a voyage of self-discovery that spans a world"--P. [4] of cover.

The book, written in poetic form, tells the story of Lilith, the mythical first wife of Adam. The image of Lilith consists of bits and pieces from Islamic, Jewish, and Christian traditions.

Adam's First Wife by Darlene Dauphin Pdf

Adam's First Wife is an account of the story of Lilith, named in Gnostic and ancient Hebrew literature as the original wife of the man, Adam, his first "helpmeet". Described in those texts as having been created from " filth and sediment" instead of "pure dust," she was a woman of color. This mysterious dark-skinned woman is lauded as beautiful and blue-eyed. Simultaneously, she is named as the prototype of the incubus, night monster in early legend. Called a seducer in nightmares, vilified by gossip, she was eliminated as a real person and her possible historical legacy removed through denial of her very existence. Eve's descendants , the development of systemic colorism and certainly the seventeenth century scholars of King James attempted to omit every reference to her, even as an ancient queen. But, "she" existed.

The Witch Hunts by Robert Thurston Pdf

Tens of thousands of people were persecuted and put to death as witches between 1400 and 1700 – the great age of witch hunts. Why did the witch hunts arise, flourish and decline during this period? What purpose did the persecutions serve? Who was accused, and what was the role of magic in the hunts? This important reassessment of witch panics and persecutions in Europeand colonial America both challenges and enhances existing interpretations of the phenomenon. Locating its origins 400 years earlier in the growing perception of threats to Western Christendom, Robert Thurston outlines the development of a ‘persecuting society’ in which campaigns against scapegoats such as heretics, Jews, lepers and homosexuals set the scene for the later witch hunts. He examines the creation of the witch stereotype and looks at how the early trials and hunts evolved, with the shift from accusatory to inquisitorial court procedures and reliance upon confessions leading to the increasing use of torture.

The Queen of the Night by Dominique Collon Pdf

A concise and beautifully designed book exploring the symbolism behind an exquisite Ancient Babylonian plaque found in southern Iraq. This spectacular terracotta plaque was the principal acquisition for the British Museum's 250th anniversary, and in 2004 was exhibited in various museums around the UK. Made between 1800 and 1859 BC, it is made from baked straw-tempered clay and modelled in high relief. It probably stood in a shrine and could represent the demoness Lilitu, known in the Bible as Lilith, or a Mesopotamian goddess. The figure wears the horned headdress characteristic of a Mesopotamian deity, and holds a rod and ring of justice, symbols of her divinity. Her long multi-coloured wings hang downwards, indicating that she is a goddess of the Underworld. The book explores the history and symbolism behind this beautiful and highly unusual relief.

Helsing and the Tales of Heroes by CMed (TheUniverseofCMed) Pdf

The year is 2012. Earth has fallen into a new calamity. Waves of monsters have risen to ravage the great cities. Humanity is mutating to become ogres, their basic instincts overridden for a singular cause: to conquer the world. The familiar sense has returned. This is not what is supposed to happen. Our history books do not record such an event occurring, yet it is. The war is seemingly hopeless as the ogres are unstoppable. But there is hope. Rumors persist of mythical creatures, monsters that fight for the human cause. They appear and disappear at random, capable of decimating the ogre ranks. Yet, in the enemy armies, there are the whispers of a singular leader who rules them all, perhaps the one responsible for starting all of it. A lone human woman fights for her people as Paris burns. It will be up to her and the mythics to solve the mysteries that lie from where the mutagen occurred and perhaps save humanity from annihilation….. Tales of Heroes is a fantasy and historical story woven into one, consisting of several stories in one book. It is a book of love, drama, action, and sex between those that are human and anthro-alike. Helsing and the Tales of Heroes continues after the events of Ayida-Weddo and the Tales of Heroes. https://www.gabatrix.net (Main Website) https://www.patreon.com/TheUniverseofCMed https://gofund.me/44b20522 (Gofundme Audiobook Project)

All the People in the Bible by Richard R. Losch Pdf

"More than any other book, the Bible offers an amazing collection of fascinating characters ranging from the holiest of the holy to some of the most depraved scoundrels imaginable. Many are mentioned only in passing, yet history and archaeology can often fill in the blanks and flesh them out as exciting human beings. For this reason we have in many cases been able to tell much more about them than the Bible alone reveals." -- Richard R. Losch (from the preface)A comprehensive gathering of persons found in the Bible, including the Apocrypha, All the People in the Bible really delivers on its title: literally all of the Bible's characters appear in this fascinating reference work. From the first article on Aaron to the final entry on Zophar, Richard Losch details each person in a lively narrative style.The bulk of the book consists of Losch's A-Z articles covering the familiar and the not-so-familiar figures in Scripture. Names of people who are found only in genealogies or who had no significant effect on history are included solely in the alphabetical listing starting on page 452. That listing, "All the People in the Bible and Apocrypha," includes pronunciations, brief identifications, and biblical references. Persons covered in greater detail in the main part of the book are identified in bold print.Losch's intriguing look at all the people in the Bible is anything but a dry reference work. This is a book to dip into and enjoy over and over.
