Sinopse

Samuel Rapaport's 'Tales and Maxims from the Midrash' is a collection of insightful stories and moral teachings from Jewish scripture. Written in a narrative style that draws readers in with vivid imagery and engaging dialogue, the book explores the deeper meanings found within the Midrash, a body of rabbinic literature that interprets and expands on the teachings of the Hebrew Bible. Through these tales and maxims, Rapaport provides readers with a unique perspective on ancient Jewish wisdom and ethics, offering valuable lessons that are still relevant today. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Jewish literature, ethics, or religious studies. Samuel Rapaport, a respected scholar and theologian, has dedicated his life to studying and teaching Jewish texts. His expertise in the Midrash is evident in 'Tales and Maxims from the Midrash', as he carefully selects and interprets passages to provide readers with a deeper understanding of this rich tradition. Rapaport's passion for preserving and sharing the wisdom of the Midrash shines through in this thought-provoking collection. I highly recommend 'Tales and Maxims from the Midrash' to anyone seeking to explore the depths of Jewish wisdom and ethical teachings. Samuel Rapaport's insightful commentary and engaging storytelling make this book a valuable addition to any library.

    Can a theological case be made from Scripture that Israel still has a claim to the Promised Land? Christian Zionism is often seen as the offspring of premillennial dispensationalism. But the historical roots of Christian Zionism came long before the rise of the Plymouth Brethren and John Nelson Darby. In fact, the authors of The New Christian Zionism contend that the biblical and theological connections between covenant and land are nearly as close in the New Testament as in the Old. Written with academic rigor by experts in the field, this book proposes that Zionism can be defended historically, theologically, politically and morally. While this does not sanctify every policy and practice of the current Israeli government, the authors include recommendations for how twenty-first-century Christian theology should rethink its understanding of both ancient and contemporary Israel, the Bible and Christian theology more broadly. This provocative volume proposes a place for Christian Zionism in an integrated biblical vision.

    Unflinching and plainspoken, Tessa Swan is not your typical 18th-century woman. Born and bred on the western Virginia frontier along with her five brothers, she is a force to be reckoned with. Quiet and courageous, Clay Tygart is not your typical 18th-century man. Raised by Lenape Indians, he returns a hero from the French and Indian War to the fort that bears his name, bringing with him Tessa's long-lost friend, Keturah, a redeemed Indian captive like himself.Determined to avoid any romantic entanglements as fort commander, Clay remains aloof whenever he encounters the lovely Tessa. But when she is taken captive by the tribe Clay left, his hand--and heart--are forced, leading to one very private and one very public reckoning.Intense, evocative, and laced with intricate historical details that bring the past to life, An Uncommon Woman will transport you to the picturesque and dangerous western Virginia mountains of 1770.
