DOWNLOAD EBOOK"The Samaritan Chronicle" is a religious text of the Samaritans, an ethno-religious group who, alongside Jews, originated from the ancient Israelites. Samaritans describe their religion as the holy faith that began with Moses, unchanged over the millennia that have since passed. The book narrates the chronicles of the children of Israel, from the time that Musa (Moses), the prophet invested Yush'a (Joshua) the son of Nun with the Kalifate over his people. It records the miraculous events of the time such as the crossing of the Jordan as well as the battles they fought victoriously as they sought to take over the land of Canaan.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKSamaritanism is an outgrowth of Early Judaism that has survived until today. Its origin as a separate religious entity can be traced back to the 2nd/1st centuries B.C.E. Samaritans were found not only in their core-area in and around Shechem-Neapolis (modern Nablus) and on neighboring Mount Gerizim, but also in other parts of Palestine as well as in various other Mediterranean countries. Oppression at the hand of Jews, Christians and Muslims decimated the Samaritan population and obliterated all Samaritan manuscripts written prior to the 10th/11th centuries C.E. For the early period of Samaritanism we must therefore rely on Christian authors.Reinhard Pummer edits Christian Greek and Latin texts about Samaritans and their beliefs and practices, dating from the second century C.E. to the Arab conquests. The passages are quoted in their original language and translated into English. In addition, they are commented on and analyzed in view of their significance for our knowledge of Samaritanism within the wider framework of early Judaism and Christianity.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKMany Bible readers will think that chapter 17 of the second book of Kings refers to the origin of the Samaritans. This understanding of the chapter has its earliest attestation in the works of Josephus. The present book evaluates the methods often used for finding the origin of the Samaritans, makes an assessment of well known and new material, and ventures into some uncharted territory. It is suggested that the moment of birth of the Samaritans was the construction of the temple on Mount Gerizim. This happened in the first part of the fourth century b.c.e. in accordance with the original commandment of Moses in Deut 27:4.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKIn this groundbreaking urban fantasy series from New York Times bestseller Joseph Nassise, a grieving father makes a desperate bargain with forces beyond his control, revealing the supernatural world he'll need to survive in order to rescue the daughter who vanished into its dark depths several years before. "Gritty, grim, yet surprisingly personal and poetic, Eyes to See is like nothing else in its field. Make time for this one." —Seanan McGuire, New York Times bestselling author of the October Daye and Incryptid series “Brings urban fantasy to a new level. Heartbreaking, deeply insightful, powerful, and genuinely thrilling. Joe Nassise has just raised the bar for the whole genre.” —Jonathan Maberry, New York Times bestselling author of the Joe Ledger series "I gave up my eyes to see more clearly." Harvard professor Jeremiah Hunt's life fell apart in the wake of his daughter's disappearance. His obsessive search for her cost him his wife, his job, and his reputation. And now, thanks to a Faustian bargain he makes with the empty-eyed and enigmatic Preacher, it takes his sight as well. In return, he's granted the gift of seeing what others cannot; ghosts and other supernatural creatures of the night. With the help of his ghostly companions – Whisper and Scream – he embarks on a new career banishing malevolent spirits that torment the living while continuing his search for clues to Elizabeth's fate. What begins as a search for his daughter turns deadly when a particularly cunning foe lays a trap that ends with Hunt accused of a series of brutal murders. Now Hunt must fight not only to save his daughter's life but his own as well, against a dark and ageless foe that would use a father's love to set itself free.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKLevy-Rubin came across the document while researching her dissertation on Jerusalem during the early Muslim period, and decided later to translate it. Whether or not it really is a continuation of Abu l- Fath's (fl. 1355 AD) Samaritan chronicle, it is a colorful and detailed portrait of Palestine and its environs up the reign of al-Radi (d. 322/934). A photographic reproduction of the single surviving manuscript follows the highly annotated translation. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
