In The Text of the Hebrew Bible and its Editions some of the top
world scholars and editors of the Hebrew Bible and its versions
present essays on the aims, method, and problems of editing the
biblical text(s), taking as a reference the Complutensian Polyglot,
first modern edition of the Hebrew text and its versions and whose
Fifth Centennial was celebrated in 2014. The main parts of the
volume discuss models of editions from the Renaissance and its
forerunners to the Digital Age, the challenges offered by the
different textual traditions, particular editorial problems of the
individual books of the Bible, and the role played by quotations.
It thus sets a landmark in the future of biblical editions.

The Yasha Ahayah Bible Scriptures Aleph Tav (YASAT) coming out of
Babylon is an English version following the Antioch (Protestant) WORD
of the 1769 King James Bible (KJV), the Textus Receptus, Peshitta and
the Jewish Aleppo Codex.
Did you know in every Bible translation including the KJV that our
Heavenly Father's personal name Ahayah has been taken out and replaced
with titles and even names of pagan deities more than 10,000 times? The
YASAT is designed for those looking to read the word as it was meant to
be, by coming out of Babylon which worshipped foreign Gods. Giving
glory to Ahayah and not pagan gods, like Lord, God, Elohim, EL, Jehovah
and Jesus to name a few. This scripture also replaces "Law" with "Torah
Law," as the law was given to Moses on the temple mount and many
confuse the LAW with the pagan laws found in society.

Chalmer E. Faw brings Acts to life for our day. He blends thorough
biblical scholarship with wisdom from extensive and varied
experience in missionary work and Bible teaching. His careful
exposition of the book of Acts is supplemented with literary and
theological discussion.The key word in Acts is witness for Jesus
Christ, from Jerusalem to the ends of the earth. God's Spirit
anoints the church at Pentecost, leads believers in handling
conflicts between converts new and old, and empowers Christians to
overcome false beliefs and magic. In Acts, Luke tells this dramatic
story with subtle humor. 336 Pages.
Since ancient times Leviathan and other monsters from the biblical
world symbolize the life-threatening powers in nature and history.
They represent the dark aspects of human nature and political
entities and reveal the supernatural dimensions of evil. Ancient
texts and pictures regarding these monsters reflect an environment
of polytheism and religious pluralism. Remarkably, however, the
biblical writings and post-biblical traditions use these venerated
symbols in portraying God as being sovereign over the entire
universe, a theme that is also prominent in the reception of these
texts in subsequent contexts. This volume explores this tension and
elucidates the theological and cultural meaning of 'Leviathan' by
studying its ancient Near Eastern background and its attestation in
biblical texts, early and rabbinic Judaism, Christian theology,
Early Modern art, and film.
Ernest D. Martin takes Bible students into the rich text of the
letter to the church at Colossae and the highly personal letter to
Philemon. Martin draws on his experience as pastor, teacher, and
writer to engage the reader in the complexities of the text. All
the while, he focuses on a Christ-centered biblical theology and
the amazingly revelant pastoral concerns that shaped these letters.
In commenting on Colossians, Martin highlights a wholistic
Christology in contrast to the past and present perversions of the
gospel. In the section on Philemon, he draws attention to the
social implications of the koinonia of faith for the servants of
Jesus Christ. 344 Pages.
Pikor anaylzes the land of Israel in the book of Ezekiel showing
how its preoccupation with the Babylonian exile and the loss of the
Promised Land that this entails is directly linked to the danger
this poses to Israel's covenant with God. Pikor examines the motif
of land in its literary and historical contexts and in relation to
the oracles of salvation in chapters 34-39 as well as the vision of
the new Israel and the return of Yahweh's Glory to the temple.
Pikor begins by examining the motif of land in its literary and
historical contexts. The main body of the book then addresses
specific sections of Ezekiel. Chapter two analyzes the oracles of
punishment addressed to Israel, in which the land undergoes a
process of anthropomorphization. Chapter three situates the
punishment experienced by Ezekiel and his listeners in a broader
historical context suggested by the prophet in Ezekiel 20. Chapter
four analyses the oracles of salvation in Ezekiel 34-39, in which
the restoration of the land of Israel remains intertwined with the
promise of the new covenant. Finally, chapter five addresses the
closing vision of the new Israel (Ezekiel 40-48), which is
characterized by the territorial dimension of the future
restoration. This feature is shown via analysis of the rhetoric of
the land, the crucial element of which is the return of Yahweh's
Glory to the temple. God's presence adds sacral value to the land
in which his covenant with his people is to be realized. The
covenant will be finalized through Israel's repopulation of the
renewed land.
Pleins' exposition reveals in the Psalms the core of a liberating
worship that grasps the realities of individual suffering as well
as the stern demands of social justice. Presenting a stirring fresh
translation of many of the ancient hymns and prayers of the
psalter, Pleins offers new perspectives on their meaning for the
individual as well as for the community, from biblical times to the
present.
