Pages : 122
Book Description
Manna seeks to peel away the veil between the visible and invisible worlds to highlight the current events that fulfill prophecy.It is hard sometimes to grasp things of a spiritual nature because of our sinful condition.However,once God has poured out His Spirit on us we can understand and know the unfolding of truth and what to do. The SDA church is endowed with the Living Spirit of Prophecy in her midst and as a consequence,she can rightly interpret the events of these latter days using divine vision,divine interpretation to gain the victory.As we all know that without vision the people perish.Many people do not realize how intimately God is involved in our affairs as humans so the Book exposes God at work behind the scenes---as silent as light. The Book uses a lot of dreams,visions, personal experiences, symbols and Bible stories to illustrate and confirm facts.We have long been saturated with Fake news,lies and error and confusion.. Let us resist the fatal charms of the operators of Foggy Bottom.Now is your turn to hear the Gospel truth,and nothing but the truth as revealed in God’s holy word.It acts as a lighthouse to weary seekers of the Promised Land.God has sealed the 11th-hour workers and the church is cleansed from sin and sinnersThe Gospel message says “It is over,it is now suppertime”..It will be joy unspeakable and full of glory.The Great and Dreadful day is on the horizon.God used what we are familiar with to draw conclusions to the truth.Truth can be proved from many angles,hence it radiates in all directions. It was a long and strange journey.A journey of faith in divine Providence.Almost mystical at times.Forgive me if your eyes pop too much.Welcome to the “Magic Hour!”

Book Description
In medieval times, when a Jewish boy of five began religious schooling, he was carried from home to a teacher and placed on the teacher's lap. He was then asked to recite the Hebrew alphabet and lick honey from the slate on which it was written, to eat magically inscribed cooked peeled eggs and cakes, to recite an incantation against a demon of forgetfulness, and then to go down to the riverbank with the teacher, where he was told that his future study of the Torah, like the rushing river, would never end. This book--Ivan Marcus's erudite and novel interpretation of this rite of passage--presents a new anthropological historical approach to Jewish culture and acculturation in medieval Christian Europe. Marcus traces ancient Jewish and Greco-Roman elements in the rite and then analyzes it from different perspectives, making use of narrative, legal, poetic, ethnographic, and pictorial sources, as well as firsthand accounts. He then describes contemporary medieval Christian images and initiation rites--including the eucharist and the Madonna and child--as contexts within which to understand the ceremony. He is the first to investigate how medieval Jews were aware of, drew upon, and polemically transformed Christian religious symbols into Jewish counterimages in order to affirm the truth of Judaism and to make sense of living as Jews in an intensely Christian culture.
