DOWNLOAD EBOOKAs the golden face of Tutankhamun was found garlanded with fresh flowers exquisitely preserved for 3,000 years, the plants of ancient Egypt are brought back to life in this botanical exploration of the Pharaoh's tomb. Usually ignored by grave robbers intent on gold, the baskets, fabrics, papyri, timber, unguent vases, and model granaries filled to the brim with seeds that were buried with Tutankhamun have survived, completely intact, and each chapter of the book carries detailed descriptions of the plant species found or represented in the tomb, including emmer, fenugreek, chickpea, and types of reed and grass. F. Nigel Hepper groups the plants according to their uses, with categories such as Flowers and Leaves; Oils, Resins, and Perfumes; and Papyrus, Flax, and Other Fibrous Plants. This new edition of the fascinating book that was first published in 1990 has been fully updated to take into account recent finds and interpretations, and it features a revised and annotated further reading section, now with a guide to websites; a glossary of botanical terms; a new diagram of the tomb; additional illustrations; and a Bible references section, keyed to the main text and with quotations from the Old Testament that illuminate ancient botanical knowledge and practices.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKWhat do Jonah and Jesus have in common? More than you think! In this delightfully illustrated children's book, Maura Roan McKeegan tells the story of Jonah and Jesus. Both were given special missions by God. And both have something very important to teach about obedience to His plan. See biblical typology--the Old Testament people, symbols, and events that foreshadow the New Testament--come to life in "Into the Sea, Out of the Tomb: Jonah and Jesus." Recommended for ages 3 and up. About the Series What do the Old and New Testaments have in common? To answer this question, Maura Roan McKeegan presents biblical typology for children. Taking familiar stories from the Old and New Testaments and placing them side by side, children can easily understand at an early age what St. Augustine meant when he said that "the New Testament lies hidden in the Old and the Old Testament is revealed in the New." About the Author Maura Roan McKeegan is a former elementary and middle school teacher who also studied graduate theology and reading education. She is the author of "The End of the Fiery Sword: Adam & Eve and Jesus & Mary, " the award-winning first book in the Old and New series, which introduces children to biblical typology. "Children have a particular sensitivity to the work of the Holy Spirit," she says."Their pure hearts are able to understand Scripture in great depth." Maura grew up in Potomac, Maryland, and now lives in Steubenville, Ohio, with her husband Shaun and their four children. About the Illustrator Ted Schluenderfritz is the illustrator of several books including "A Life of Our Lord for Children, The Book of Angels, " and "Darby O'Gill and the Good People."

DOWNLOAD EBOOKIn 1665 a box from London brought more than cloth from plague-ridden London to the quiet village of Eyam in Derbyshire. For the next year the villagers had to learn to live with a silent enemy. 'Three' tells the story of three very different women in their courageous attempts to keep themselves and their loved ones alive as Eyam closed its doors to the outside world, instead facing the insipid danger alone. Emmott Sydell, Catherine Mompesson and Elizabeth Hancock were each determined to live and the courage each of them found was as unique as the women themselves. Will 1666 bring salvation? This work of historical fiction, written during a pandemic whilst reflecting on another, fuses creative imagining with historical fact to bring three female protagonists to life...
