The Prophecies of Daniel and the Apocalypse of St John

Isaac Newton

Maison d'édition: DigiCat

Synopsis

Isaac Newton's "The Prophecies of Daniel and the Apocalypse of St. John" is a profound exploration of biblical prophecy through the lens of rational inquiry and meticulous analysis. Written during the late 17th century, this work reflects the intellectual transitions of the Scientific Revolution, where empirical observation began to shape interpretations of traditional texts. Newton approaches the prophecies with a unique blend of theological insight and scientific reasoning, presenting a detailed examination of the Book of Daniel and the Book of Revelation, while revealing the historical context and symbolisms inherent in these seminal works. His literary style embodies a rigorous methodical approach that was characteristic of the era's scientific discourse, yet engages with the spiritual implications of prophecy in a deeply reflective manner. Newton, primarily known for his groundbreaking contributions to mathematics and physics, was also deeply entrenched in theological studies. His religious convictions and fascination with chronology and prophecy led him to dedicate a considerable portion of his life to the exegesis of biblical texts. The synthesis of his scientific mindset with his theological inquiries reflects his desire to uncover the divine truths behind the scriptural messages, elevating the study of prophecy to a rigorous intellectual pursuit. This book is essential for scholars and enthusiasts of religious studies, history, and literature alike. Newton's analyses not only provide insights into biblical prophecy but also elucidate the intersection of science and faith during a transformative period in history. Readers will find that Newton's meticulous scholarship opens a window into the complexities of interpreting sacred texts, thereby enriching their understanding of both prophecy and the ongoing dialogue between faith and reason.

A Catholic Pilgrimage through...

Kevin Schmiesing, Mike Aquilina

Historian Kevin Schmiesing takes you to more than two-dozen sites and events that symbolize and embody America's rich and sometimes tumultuous Catholic past, including the Santa Fe Trail, Gettysburg, and the Bourbon Trail. You'll also meet both famous and infamous Catholics—including Augustus Tolton, Dr. Samuel Mudd, and Frances Cabrini—who impacted our nation's history. 
 
 
 
The idea for A Catholic Pilgrimage through American History came from Schmiesing's mother, he says. She turned every childhood vacation into a pilgrimage, purposely inserting religious sites into the family's journey to places such as Niagara Falls, Washington, DC, or Myrtle Beach. 
 
 
 
Catholics have been part of the American experiment since the beginning—in founding the colonies and expanding the west, building education and health care systems, abolishing slavery, fighting on the front lines, and advancing science, technology, and space exploration. Each of the twenty-seven sites on Schmiesing's virtual itinerary—including, the Washington Monument, Wounded Knee Creek, the University of Notre Dame, and Mission San Diego de Alcalá—transports you to a significant time in US history and connects the dots to our Catholic heritage. You will meet notable Catholics such as John F. Kennedy, Black Elk, and Katharine Drexel, and learn more about their contributions to history.

God Who Sees The: Audio Bible...

Kathie Lee Gifford, Joanne Moody

God sees you in every situation in life.
In the Bible, we read that Hagar gave God the name El Roi, “the God who sees,” when she recognized that the Lord had seen her in her plight. In our lives, we often wonder if God sees us when trials feel endless, or problems resurface, or once-defeated illnesses return again to impact us. These moments make us question if God sees us and if he truly cares.
In this six-session audio Bible study, Kathie Lee Gifford and Joanne Moody delve into the lives of five people in the Bible who, like us, wondered if God saw them in their distress. Through the stories of Hagar, Ruth, Boaz, David, and Mary of Magdala, you will discover that even in the darkest times, God constantly watches over you. He has promised to never abandon you, and he empowers you to fulfill the purpose that he has for your life.
Each session includes clips from The Way oratorios, featuring Kathie Lee Gifford and other well-known personalities, that bring the story of Scripture to life with contemporary orchestral arrangements and powerful narration.
