If humans really have a highly developed mind, and they are guided by a common sense relative to the creatures, why history of mankind looks as a mad delirium? Do you know why? People who are we? What awaits us? Why you are on this planet now an why so many suffering here? Do you believe the All-Seeing really exists as well as His blessings and punishments? Or your sins will decay with the body under the coffin lid? Can you admit that your soul is deathless, and previously it animated bodies of humans and creatures not neccessarily monkeys? What do you think about those who first incarnated in human form and have the same free will and rights as you? Isn't that dangerous? Do you know for what purpose the Creator has chosen for Himself people, and why the eternal Chosen People eternally suffered from enemies? If it's not quite known to you and you are interested to clarify who are you, why are you here, what will happen with you, and what determines the future of mankind, then this book is definitely for you. Following after the thoughts of the main character, a young American physicist, and listening to his conversations with omniscient old man, you will slightly open the amazing projections of the Supreme Truth, which were ignored, hided and distored by the interested power for about 3300 years up to nowadays. The Original Source will answer your major life questions. Why don't get knowledge from the Source? Moreover, without risk, and for a great success in the eternal life!

Environmental issues are an ever-increasing focus of public discourse and have proved concerning to religious groups as well as society more widely. Among biblical scholars, criticism of the Judeo-Christian tradition for its part in the worsening crisis has led to a small but growing field of study on ecology and the Bible. This volume in the Oxford Handbook series makes a significant contribution to this burgeoning interest in ecological hermeneutics, incorporating the best of international scholarship on ecology and the Bible. The Handbook comprises 30 individual essays on a wide range of relevant topics by established and emerging scholars. Arranged in four sections, the volume begins with a historical overview before tackling some key methodological issues. The second, substantial, section comprises thirteen essays offering detailed exegesis from an ecological perspective of selected biblical books. This is followed by a section exploring broader thematic topics such as the Imago Dei and stewardship. Finally, the volume concludes with a number of essays on contemporary perspectives and applications, including political and ethical considerations. The editors Hilary Marlow and Mark Harris have drawn on their experience in Hebrew Bible and New Testament respectively to bring together a diverse and engaging collection of essays on a subject of immense relevance. Its accessible style, comprehensive scope, and range of material means that the volume is a valuable resource, not only to students and scholars of the Bible but also to religious leaders and practitioners.

In The Heart of Torah, Rabbi Shai Held’s Torah essays—two for each weekly portion—open new horizons in Jewish biblical commentary. Held probes the portions in bold, original, and provocative ways. He mines Talmud and midrashim, great writers of world literature, and astute commentators of other religious backgrounds to ponder fundamental questions about God, human nature, and what it means to be a religious person in the modern world. Along the way he illuminates the centrality of empathy in Jewish ethics, the predominance of divine love in Jewish theology, the primacy of gratitude and generosity, and God’s summoning of each of us—with all our limitations—into the dignity of a covenantal relationship.
