The author helps us take a closer look at the Bible from Genesis to Judges. God is a clothing and jewelry designer. Noah's ark was not only boarded 2 by 2 but it was actually boarded 7 by 7. God designed the first cruise ship and why the materials were chosen. He created our legal system, one which has been in place thousands of years. Everything we do and say is "borrowed" from the Bible. God is the original rapper, Deborah was the first female rapper. The first barns, the first nun, the true meaning of Friday the 13th and common names and phraseology such as "beat down", God forbid, allies, confederate, and nicknames such as "Red" all come from the Holy Bible proving God is the original G. In depth discussion of how Noah's three sons populated the world. What happened to the golden calf? How was prayer really taken out of school? God said He divided the world in His word and scientific proof to back it up. Who created hieroglyphics and so much more.

The interpretation of this gospel integrates an objective analysis of its historical context and a subjective semantic disclosure of meaning. To that end, a close reading of the text is combined with consistency building in order to achieve textual congruence and plenitude of meaning. The subject/ object split of traditional biblical scholarship that requires analysis in order to produce explanation as a definable object is superseded in this book by the event of reading as a dynamic happening of personal experience from which the reader cannot detach herself or himself.

A professor of religion offers an “engrossing and excellent” look at how the Good Book has changed—and changed the world—through the ages (Publishers Weekly, starred review). In a lively journey from early Christianity to the present, this book explores how a box of handwritten scrolls became the Bible, and how the multibillion-dollar business that has brought us Biblezines and Manga Bibles is selling down the Book’s sacred capital. Showing us how a single official text was created from the proliferation of different scripts, Timothy Beal traces its path as it became embraced as the word of God and the Book of books. Christianity thrived for centuries without any Bible—there was no official canon of scriptures, much less a book big enough to hold them all. Congregations used various collections of scrolls and codices. As the author reveals, there is no “original” Bible, no single source text behind the thousands of different editions on the market today. The farther we go back in the holy text’s history, the more versions we find. In calling for a fresh understanding of the ways scriptures were used in the past, the author of Biblical Literacy offers the chance to rediscover a Bible, and a faith, that is truer to its own history—not a book of answers, but a library of questions.

As you know, the world we live in has a system of operation with its basic instructions that operate only by that system. So does God in His Heavenly Kingdom have a system of operation that operate only by His way. This book with the Bible helps readers learn God's basic instructions through our earthly life here on Earth before our leaving. Your question may be, ""Why God's basic instructions on doing things? Could it be my way of doing things, or why not the world's way of doing things?"" This book will help you know and understand which, and prepare one how to leave.

In the hot and hedonistic atmosphere of Toucan Bay, a Caribbean enclave on the planet Kunu Supia, the legendary hustler of bootleg melanin Joe Sambucus Nigra returns from the desert with a price on his head. Waiting for him at the seafront brothel and nightclub Houdini’s, are several of his enemies including his arch nemesis, the gargantuan hired assassin Bo Nuggy. An unnamed, semi omniscient narrator relates the sequence of events that unfold at Houdini’s the night of Joe Sam’s long awaited return. His story is interrupted by periodic hallucinations or genetic flashbacks that take the reader on a journey from ancient Iere to Kunu Supia, via present day Trinidad. And in which the past, present and future coalesce into a more expansive narrative that reveals his own history through time and space. The twenty-four chapters that comprise The African Origins Of UFOs were written over a five year period. The text is a time shifting narrative in poetic prose and poetry that fuses elements of Science Fiction, surrealism, metafiction, Trinidadian history and mythology, to explore issues of exile, race and genetic memory, all told in a fresh and innovative language, infused with the speech rhythms of Trinidad. It blends the diasporic with the avant-garde into something which can only be called “afropsychedelic noir.”
