Book Description
The Messianic Peshitta Megilah for Purim is an exceptional book for celebrating Purim. It is an abridgment of the Book of Esther, the only book in the Scriptures that does not mention G-d directly, either by name or title. This abridged Megilah offers the Messianic community the opportunity to celebrate and learn more about Purim, as well as the Book of Esther. Each chapter starts with a significant and direct quote from the Hebrew and the English. The rest of the corresponding biblical chapter is summarized for brevity and clarity. After each summarized chapter there are “Thoughts to Consider,” with probing analysis and questions about the chapter focused on the Messianic overtones of the book. These can be discussed during the Shpiel. There are also suggestions for celebrating the Purim Shpiel, a comedic presentation of the Book of Esther. The book starts with the blessings for reading the Megilah, and ends with a glossary to define transliterated terms that may not be familiar. These transliterations render the more Jewish tone of the work, and aid in understanding Esther on a deeper level. Everyone who uses this Megilah will gain better insight into the plan of Salvation, and learn how detailed and “present” G-d is in our lives, even when we do not see or hear Him.

Book Description
This "Messianic Peshitta Madrikh" is critically necessary for the overseers of a Messianic congregation, most helpful in conducting all lifecycle events. From the Brit Milah and Pidyon HaBen all the way to the departure of a loved one and the funeral, the ceremonies are clearly and concisely formatted. The guide offers the overseer all the Hebrew blessings for each event, both in Hebrew and in transliterated Hebrew with English phonetics, and in English. The blessings are freshly translated, and scriptures cited are quoted from "HaDavar", a Messianic translation of The Word of G-d. The Messianic Peshitta community is a small but growing community of those who simply want to follow the Word of G-d as it was given in its purest form, in the Hebrew and Aramaic languages, and in the context of 1st Century Judaism guided only by Messiah Yeshua and His Halakha. This Madrikh helps the overseers to conduct all ceremonies in that vein, and gives explanations of those ceremonies from that perspective. It will prove to be a useful asset for the believing community until Messiah returns. Daniel Perek is a lifelong writer and מָדְרִיד מְֹשִיָחִי פֹשִיטְתָה poet who comes from a legacy of writing. He has written a novel called "Grave Danger," a Siddur for Messianic Peshitta Jewish liturgical worship, a Haggadah for the Messianic Peshitta Jewish Pesakh Seder, a Bar Mitzvah curriculum for the Messianic Peshitta Jewish Synagogue, a Madrikh of life-cycle events for the Messianic Peshitta Jewish overseer, a Megilah for the Messianic Peshitta Purim celebration, and most recently completed, a new translation into English of the sacred Jewish scriptures, the Tanakh and Brit Khadashah [OT and NT] texts from the Masoretic and Peshitta texts, respectively, called "HaDavar" [The Word]. Apart from his writing, music, and other pursuits, Daniel is also the founding overseer of a Messianic Congregation in The Woodlands, Texas, which influences much of his writing. He blogs periodically at danielperek.com, hoping to share the truth of the Jewish Messiah with anyone who would hear. After finishing and publishing all the liturgy above, he intends to complete his second work of fiction, which is proving very interesting to those in the know...

Book Description
Seeking out the Land describes the study of the Holy Land in the Roman period and examines the complex connections between theology, social agenda and the intellectual pursuit. Holiness as a theological concept determines the intellectual agenda of the elite society of writers seeking to describe the land, as well as their preoccupation with its physical aspects and their actual knowledge about it. Ze'ev Safrai succeeds in examining all the ancient monotheistic literature, both Jewish and Christian, up to the fourth century CE, and in demonstrating how all the above-mentioned factors coalesce into a single entity. We learn that in both religions, with all their various subgroups, the same social and religious factors were at work, but with differing intensity.
