Lester Stephenson stresses that Christians must recognize the importance of the Bible that Jesus and the apostles used. Each time Jesus and the apostles used the phrase, "it is written" they were using an Old Testament passage to illustrate a New Testament principle. In A Biblicist View of Law and Gospel, Stephenson advocates a biblicist view based on careful Bible study to explain how Christians are to view the law and the way the testaments fit together as an inspired whole.

What is a soul? What happens to us after we physically die? What is consciousness, and can it survive without a physical brain? Can we remember our past lives? Do near-death experiences prove immortality? How does reincarnation really work? Drawing from ancient Jewish wisdom and a modern understanding of consciousness, Rav Pinson explores the possibility of surviving death, the near-death experience, and a glimpse into what awaits us after this life.

The great Canaanite god Baal is one of the most maligned deities in Western religious history. Only Satan is considered more sinister and evil. This is sad because Baal is not evil at all but has been done an injustice, and that is something I will be discussing in great length later in this book.

A Talmudic exegesis by the Rebbe, Rabbi Menachem M. Schneerson. Adapted from two siyumim delivered by the Rebbe (on tractates Makkot and Yoma), Of Tears and Laughter focuses on two moving Talmudic stories that occurred in the aftermath of the destruction of the second Beit Hamikdash. With his unique, holistic approach to Torah study, the Rebbe explores the positions taken by the leading Sages of that time, and examines their lives and teachings.

Since they were first discovered in the caves at Qumran, in 1947, the Dead Sea Scrolls have aroused more fascination - and more controversy - than perhaps any other archaeological find. They appear to have been hidden in the Judean desert by the Essenes, a Jewish sect that existed around the time of Jesus, and they continue to inspire veneration and conspiracy theories to this day. John Collins tells the story of the bitter conflicts that have swirled around the scrolls since their startling discovery, and sheds light on their true significance for Jewish and Christian history.

In the 2014 New York Times best seller Jesus on Trial, David Limbaugh made a case for the Gospels as hard evidence of the existence of God, drawing on his own spiritual journey from skeptic to believer. Now Limbaugh looks deeper into the scriptures and discovers that Jesus Christ's very being reveals itself in a close reading of the sacred texts.

Speaking to saints from Heaven might be rare, but in these times, more and more people are starting to experience it. In biblical times, Jesus had a conversation with Moses and Elijah on the Mount of Transfiguration that was recorded in Matthew 17:1-9.

Your greatest regret at the end of your life will be the lions you didn't chase. You will look back longingly on risks not taken, opportunities not seized, and dreams not pursued. Stop running away from what scares you most and start chasing the God-ordained opportunities that cross your path.

Thilo Koch, gemeinsam mit Peter Otto, stellt sich in diesem Werk die Frage, ob die zehn Gebote des Alten Testaments auch heute noch als ein Grundgesetz der Menschheit funktionieren können - und ob sie es vielleicht sogar sind. Dabei werden die Bezüge zwischen dem Dekalog von Moses und den aktuellen sozialen, psychologischen, politischen und kulturellen Realitäten hergestellt. Der Autor und Fernsehjournalist Thilo Koch wurde 1920 in Kanena geboren. Nachdem er sein Abitur 1939 als Jahrgangs-Bester abgelegt hatte, studierte er Philosophie, Geschichte und Germanistik.

Ein Jude, geboren 1897, mit einem Lebenslauf, quer durch die Katastrophen des Jahrhunderts, den es durch die Welt, von Berlin nach Jerusalem getrieben hat: Gershom Scholem - Historiker und Philosoph. Früh widersetzt er sich allen Formen der Assimilation, lernt Hebräisch, wendet sich dem Zionismus zu. Und vor allem: Er dringt vor ins Innerste, ins Herz der jüdischen Mystik, macht die Kabbala zum lebenslangen Objekt seiner Forschung. Scholem holt die Kabbala, diese, wie ein Fremdkörper, in der jüdischen Geschichte ruhende Überlieferung, aus der Vergessenheit ans Licht der Philologie.

La Kabbalah - che in ebraico vuol dire "ricezione" - è il complesso delle dottrine esoteriche e mistiche dell'ebraismo. Essa mira a creare un contatto più diretto e più intimo col divino, reso possibile attraverso un disvelamento che segue molteplici vie: dall'analisi delle Sacre Scritture, la Torah, per scoprire il significato recondito e profondo delle narrazioni in essa contenute, fino alle pratiche di elevazione estatica volte ad avvicinare la presenza divina.

Die hier vereinten transzendenten Haupttexte der religiösen Geheimlehre der Kabbala, die Bücher Jezira, Bahir und Sohar, sind uralte mystische Deutungen der göttlichen Offenbarung und haben über die Jahrhunderte hinweg Juden und auch Angehörige anderer Religionen immer wieder spirituell inspiriert und in ihren Bann gezogen.

Alchemy is the science of transformation - how to change one thing into something else. In The Alchemy of Inner Work, Dechar and Fox examine how illness, suffering, and disease - the "lead" of our lives - can become the "gold" of our authentic selves, and the key to good health and well-being. Drawing on traditional Chinese medicine, Eastern and Western alchemical traditions, Kabbalah, and Jungian psychology - plus case studies from working with patients - the authors provide hands-on insights for bringing "the soul of medicine" back into our lives.
