A 365-day devotional featuring the actual spoken words of God as presented in the Bible. Too many times the impact and grandness of the actual words God spoke, as recorded in the Bible, are lost in the telling of the story.

Shadow of the Mountain (Shadow of the Mountain Book #1) by Cliff Graham Pdf

Caleb and Joshua Roar to Life in this High-Impact Old Testament Saga Two men were brave enough to tell the truth about what awaited the Hebrews in Canaan. This is their story. From the slave pits of Egypt to the efforts of an eighty-five-year-old Caleb as he drives out the last of the giants, Shadow of the Mountain is a vivid portrait of two of God's chosen champions, and a meditation on masculine mentorship and the challenges and blessings of growing older.

From his early days as a mercenary for Pharaoh in Egypt watching the Hebrews suffer under the yoke of slavery, all the way through a desperate fight with giants in the dark forests of the hill country, this is a story filled with epic battles, gritty intensity, and supernatural events that made Graham's Lion of War series a hit.

The Book of Exodus by Gary R Brown,Gary Roger Brown Pdf

I am happy to introduce my latest project, "The Book of Exodus: God's Commandments in Colors." This book captures the timeless wisdom and powerful message of the story of Moses and the Israelites' journey from slavery in Egypt to the Promised Land. Through vivid illustrations and colorful interpretations, this book brings this story to life in an engaging and informative way. It highlights the importance of forgiveness, unity, and trust in God, as demonstrated by the Israelites' journey through the desert. The Ten Commandments, one of the most well-known Bible references, are also featured in the book. I hope it will inspire readers to explore the Bible further and seek a deeper understanding of its teachings. As it is written in Exodus 20:3-17, "You shall have no other gods before me..." and in Exodus 14:14, "The Lord will fight for you, and you have only to be silent." These verses, among many others, illustrate the importance of faith, obedience, and trust in God's plan for our lives.

Following Moses by Frank de Ruyter Pdf

The story of the Passover is pivotal to biblical history, and Judaism is really defined by what transpired between God and Moses at Mount Sinai. Yet modern Egypt still shrugs its shoulders at the Exodus narrative, and archaeologists like to point out that physical evidence for up to three million Israelites camped for forty years in the Sinai Peninsula is lacking. Christians and Jews still argue about where the Red Sea crossing actually took place. Following Moses attempts to revisit the Exodus question without predisposition. It rationalizes the numbers led by Moses, rebuilds and recalibrates the histories of Israel and Egypt, locates the dynasty and political situation of the time, and traces Moses wanderings with the grumbling Israelites not in Sinai - but in Arabia allowing both Moses and Israel to see off the forty years ban in a place Moses knew intimately, before Joshua finally stepped up to carry Israel forward into its Canaanite promise. The Gulf of Aqaba formed through a massive tectonic movement that brought about the ten plagues in Egypt and sunk ancient Thera. The same rupture formed the Dead Sea basin, tipped Israel eastward and reversed the flow of the Jordan. The desperate Israelites crossed the Red Sea where the modern Strait of Tiran still extends, but at a time when sea levels were one hundred and twenty feet lower than today. The Hand of God lowered the sea still further, allowing Israel to use this submarine land-bridge while it lasted. Mount Sinai finally appears to be modern Jebel Al Lawz, at the western extremity of the Sinai Wilderness, where Moses also originally met God and learned his Name at the burning bush. With these revisions, the Story of Moses is historically reborn..

John Chrysostom on Divine Pedagogy by David Rylaarsdam Pdf

Contrary to the portrayals of Chrysostom as a theologically impaired, moralizing sophist, this book argues that his thinking is remarkably coherent when it is understood on his own terms and within his culture. Chrysostom depicts God as a teacher of philosophy who adaptably guides people toward salvation. Since the theme of divine adaptability influences every major area of Chrysostom's thought, tracing this concept provides a thorough introduction to his theology. It also explains, at least in part, several striking features of his homilies, including his supposed inconsistencies, his harsh rhetoric and apparent political naivete, his intentionally abridged and exoteric theological discussions, and his lack of allegiance to an "Antiochene school." In addition to illuminating such topics, the concept of adaptability stands at one of the busiest intersections of Late Antique culture, for it is an important idea found in rhetoric and discussions about the best methods of teaching philosophy. Consequently, adaptability is an ingredient in the classical project of paideia, and Chrysostom is a Christian philosopher who seeks to transform this powerful tradition of formation. He gives his Christianized paideia a theological foundation by adapting and seamlessly integrating traditional pedagogical methods into his reading and communication of Scripture. David Rylaarsdam provides an in-depth case study of one prominent leader's attempt to transform culture by forming a coherent theological discourse that was adapted to the level of the masses.

Open Minded Torah by William Kolbrener Pdf

In essays as likely to turn to baseball, Denzel Washington, and the NASDAQ as to Macbeth, quantum physics and psychoanalysis, William Kolbrener provides powerful - and often surprising - insights into how open mindedness allows for authentic Jewish commitment in an age otherwise defined by fundamentalism and unbelief. Open Minded Torah presents - on topics ranging from parenting a son with Down syndrome to Biblical criticism to Talmudic interpretation of dreams - a perspective on Torah which emphasizes scepticism, creativity and the need to embrace difference. Through a personal synthesis of Western and Jewish learning, popular culture and philosophy, Kolbrener offers a compelling new vision where being open minded allows for a non-dogmatic and committed Jewish life. Informed by Kolbrener's considerable erudition, but always accessible, the essays show that scepticism informs belief, commitment grounds creativity, and non-defensive receptiveness makes individual autonomy possible. For every person, it is said, there is a corresponding letter in the Torah: this innovative collection shows Kolbrener writing his letter, and providing the inspiration for others to write their own.

The Millstätter Exodus by D. H. Green Pdf

The Millstatter Exodus, a German epic of the twelfth century, is a poetic version of the opening chapters of the book of Exodus, treating the events of the early life of Moses and culminating in the crossing of the Red Sea and the destruction of the Hebrews' pagan enemies. In form it represents the second attempt at a biblical epic on the large scale after the revival of German vernacular literature in the late eleventh century. Professor Green analyses the Millstatter Exodus in form and in context. He compares it with its predecessor, the Wiener Genesis, and with its biblical source, throwing light on the early development of the German epic in the twelfth century and on the poetic intentions of the author of the Exodus. Professor Green believes that the Millstatter Exodus can best be understood allegorically against the background of the crusading movement, and he shows that it is one of the first literary attempts in Germany to come to terms with the crusades and the problem of Christian warfare.
