Essays on Moses from Buenos Aires
Author: John Tracy Greene
Publisher: Cambridge Scholars Publishing
ISBN: 144387633X
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 265
Book Description
Essays on Moses from Buenos Aires: Moses in Three Traditions and in Literature brings together papers presented at the International Annual Meeting of the Society of Biblical Literature’s Seminar in Biblical Characters in Three Traditions (Judaism, Christianity, and Islam) and in Literature. In 2015, this Meeting took place at the Pontifical Catholic University in Buenos Aires, Argentina, with the biblical character of concern being Moses, resulting in a myriad of approaches taken in understanding traditions concerning him. The Seminar has provided a forum for scholars of the three traditions and literature to express freely, and in a scholarly atmosphere, their learned opinions concerning one biblical character at each meeting. The purpose is two-fold: (1) to take advantage of the academic freedom proffered by the Seminar in a courteous, yet intensive, environment, and (2) through the proceedings volumes, to provide a growing and specialized research library on the development of learned opinions on specific biblical characters. This volume will appeal to the university and seminary scholar – both professorial and student – as well as the interested, intelligent reader.

The Life and Day Dreams of a Nine Year Old
Author: Austin J. Patterson
Publisher: Trafford Publishing
ISBN: 1466970375
Category : Juvenile Nonfiction
Languages : en
Pages : 103
Book Description
This book is a collection of short stories written by a nine-year-old about his daily life experiences and events as he sees them. The stories narrate events to kids from a kid’s point of view. Many of the stories are true. Some of the stories are true with a little embellishment, and others are complete fiction. Read along as Austin shares his experience on a roller coaster that goes so fast it breaks loose and flies into outer space, or read about a team of junior explorers in their lava-proof suits as they descend into a volcano. Obviously, those stories are fiction, but Austin also relates everyday experiences like the day he went to the grocery store with his mom and three sisters, and one sister temporarily disappeared. Austin will communicate his passion for football, computers, ice cream, and writing. These are all stories dreamed, written, and shared by a kid to kids.
