Synopsis

"Verified Ancient Maxims" explores whether the wisdom of ancient sayings holds up to modern scrutiny. It delves into the factual basis of age-old expressions using empirical evidence from fields like psychology and sociology. The book argues that many accepted maxims aren't just simplistic platitudes, but distillations of observed phenomena validated by contemporary research. One intriguing insight is how these maxims often align with our understanding of cognitive biases, revealing connections between ancient wisdom and modern science. The book examines the origins and evolution of maxims, their cultural significance, and their reflections of quantifiable realities.

 
It progresses from defining and classifying maxims to analyzing them within thematic categories like human behavior and societal structures. For example, maxims related to decision-making are contrasted with findings from behavioral economics. This approach distinguishes itself by emphasizing empirical validation, assessing the factual accuracy of ancient sayings through contemporary research, and offering readers practical takeaways for improved decision-making.

King David: The History and...

Charles River Editors

Before any type of unified political entity named Israel existed, the Jewish groups whose descendants would later form Israel identified themselves by their particular tribe. If asked their nationality or country of origin, they would likely identify themselves as Danites (from the tribe of Dan; Ex. 31:6) or Ephraimites (from the tribe of Ephraim; Judg. 12:5), etc. The main way to differentiate these tribes from other tribes in Canaan was their common worship of the deity YHWH, but in terms of language or other cultural characteristics, it would have been difficult to tell a Canaanite from an Israelite.
Before David’s rise, the prophet Samuel emerged as the supreme spiritual authority, serving as the bridge between the will of Yahweh and earthly power and holding the sacred authority to appoint and remove kings. After rejecting Saul for his transgressions, Samuel was sent by God to Bethlehem, in the heart of the territory of the tribe of Judah. It is here that the Biblical narrative turns its focus to the origins of David. Modern historical scholarship quickly dismantles the romantic image of David as a poor shepherd boy of humble origins - his father Jesse was in fact a respected elder of Bethlehem, a prosperous landowner with significant land and large herds of livestock.
The family's internal dynamics were not without tension. David was the youngest son, and given the demographic pressures mentioned above and the system of primogeniture, his prospects of receiving a meaningful share of the inheritance were slim. This pushed him to leave home and quickly develop other skills to get by: he became both a formidable warrior and a skilled lyre player, an instrument that signaled his belonging to a well-off class. Furthermore, David's complete absence when the prophet Samuel arrived, left tending the flock in the fields while his brothers took part in the ritual, highlights his initially marginalized and underestimated position, even in his own father's eyes.

Anonymous

It need hardly be said that the woman by whom these letter were written had no thought that they would be read by anyone but the person to whom they were addressed. But a request, conveyed under circumstances which the writer herself would have regarded as all-commanding, urges that they should now be given to the world; and, so far as is possible with a due regard to the claims of privacy, what is here printed presents the letters as they were first written in their complete form and sequence.
