A Reader's Hebrew Bible


A Reader's Hebrew Bible: Second Edition is a classic and essential tool for students of biblical Hebrew. The Reader presents the Hebrew and Aramaic text of the Leningrad Codex (minus the critical apparatus) alongside the English translation of the New International Version. Hebrew words that occur one-hundred times or less (twenty-five or less for Aramaic words) are given definitions in footnotes, allowing students to focus on reading, comprehension, parsing, and grammatical issues. Shaded Hebrew names that occur less than one-hundred times help ease reading, and parsing information in footnotes aid students in understanding meaning and English renderings. Ketiv/Qere readings are noted in the text throughout. The Italian Duo-Tone binding, ribbon marker, and easy-to-read Hebrew font make this Reader an attractive Bible for reading and study. The new features of this updated edition of the A Reader's Hebrew Bible include four-color maps and an "Index of the Bible's Use of the Bible" by award-winning author Gary Edward Schnittjer. The index is based on Schnittjer's careful work of Scripture's use of Scripture and lists all allusions tied directly to the Hebrew and Greek languages. Sigla inform the reader of the type of relationship between texts. This important addition sets A Reader's Hebrew Bible apart from other Hebrew resources, promoting careful and fruitful study of the Hebrew Bible.

A Brief History of the Coast in 100 Objects


An immersive history of our coasts and the people who have shaped them The coast means something different to everyone. It’s a place of pleasure and reckless pursuits, of fishing, fearless endeavours and a crashing, rugged beauty. The coast is, and always has been, our first line of defence and our springboard to other cultures. Through the lens of 100 carefully selected objects, this treasure chest of a book delves into the myriad ways our coastlines have shaped, and been shaped by, our history, culture, and identity. From Roman lighthouses to rosary beads, knitted jumpers to Viking slave shackles, each object serves as a portal to a unique story. Sally Coulthard’s engaging narrative goes far beyond the traditional seaside holiday to illuminate the coast’s role as a first line of defence, a site of trade, and a catalyst for cultural exchange. Readers will discover how the coast has influenced our beliefs, economy, and even our domestic lives. And, looking out to sea, this book will show how Britain’s story is anchored to those of our European neighbours and of faraway lands. From one of Britain’s finest historians of material culture, this book vividly captures the enduring magic and significance of our shores. Whether it’s smugglers’ underpants or sailor’s hoaxes, whale vomit or pickled puffin – it all washes up on the British coast…

Winter War 1939–40


The first illustrated study in English of the Finnish Air Force’s battle to repel the Soviet invaders during the Winter War, one of the greatest David-and-Goliath air battles in history. In 1939, the Soviet Union invaded its neighbour Finland, sparking the Winter War. While Finland was heavily outnumbered in all respects, in few respects was the contest so uneven as in the air. In this book, veteran Finnish aviation historian Kari Stenman draws on his decades of research to present the first account in English of the Finnish Air Force’s defence of the country’s skies, a clash that pitted its 114 combat aircraft against the Soviets’ 2,318. He explains that, equipped initially with a handful of British and Dutch aircraft, Finland’s air force adopted similar guerrilla tactics to its infantry. Fokker D.XXI interceptors were scattered to remote landing grounds to ambush the Soviets and give an impression of strength, while the bombers were first used for long-range reconnaissance and harassment. Over the course of the war, the Finns received new Gladiators, Fiat G.50s and French MS.406s, until at the close of the war, all flying units were thrown in to repel the Russian invasion across the frozen Gulf of Finland. Illustrated with previously unpublished photos, superb original artwork, 3D diagrams and maps, this reveals for the first time the full story of how Finnish aviators fought for their country’s independence.

Dialóg dvoch exilov


Po komunistickom prevrate v roku 1948 emigrovali na Západ tisícky demokraticky orientovaných Slovákov vytvárajúcich spolu s Čechmi v poradí už tretí – tentoraz protikomunistický – československý zahraničný odboj. Zo slovenskej strany ho v 70. a 80. rokoch 20. storočia viedol niekdajší politik Demokratickej strany Martin Kvetko. Po auguste 1968 utiekli z dôvodu okupácie Československa vojskami Varšavskej zmluvy ďalšie desaťtisíce Čechov a Slovákov, často už aj reformných komunistov. Na Západe vytvorili nové štruktúry odporu voči domácej konzervatívnej prosovietskej komunistickej totalite. Významné miesto v nich zastával historik Vilém Prečan, ktorý organizoval distribúciu informačných materiálov medzi domácim disentom a československým exilom, resp. demokratickými médiami na Západe. Stal sa známy najmä ako exilový „dvorný archivár“ aktivít Charty 77, resp. disidentských iniciatív z Československa. Prečanove neutíchajúce aktivity na poli historiografie, upozorňujúce demokratický Západ na represie komunistického režimu voči kriticky uvažujúcim historikom v Československu, prirodzene upútali pozornosť Martina Kvetka. Témami korešpondencie Prečana a Kvetka boli spočiatku osud proskribovaného historika odboja Jozefa Jablonického a viaceré otázky slovenských dejín 20. storočia. Tie Kvetko vnímal ako ich priamy účastník a aktívny tvorca (odbojový činiteľ, povojnový povereník), zatiaľ čo Prečan patril medzi najvýznamnejších spracovateľov týchto tém (jeho dva zväzky dokumentov o Slovenskom národnom povstaní sú dodnes neprekonané). Listová komunikácia exulantov taktiež poodhaľuje zákulisie mnohých aspektov života protikomunistickej emigrácie i domáceho disentu. Dotýka sa nielen komplikovaných osobných vzťahov v exile či problematiky slovensko-českého súžitia, ale aj tém kontroverznej nemeckej či maďarskej otázky, o ktorých sa viedli ostré polemiky. Publikácia ponúka aj nahliadnutie do „kuchyne“ príprav exilových vydaní diel najvýznamnejších disidentov zo Slovenska – Milana Šimečku, Miroslava Kusého, Hany Ponickej a najmä Jablonického samizdatových štúdií.

George Whitefield


Neobyčejný životní příběh George Whitefielda a jeho blízkých přátel, mezi které patřili bratři John a Charles Weslyovi. Všichni bojovali nejprve za vlastní porozumění Božímu slovu, zvlášť evangeliu, a když byli z Boží milosti obráceni, kázali slovo všude tam, kam je Pán poslal. Jejich službu provázelo neobyčejné působení Ducha svatého projevující se až hromadným obracením hříšníků ke Kristu – Bůh konal své dílo s velikou mocí, jakou si v dnešní době ani nedovedeme představit. Proč bychom se tedy měli začíst do životopisu George Whitefielda? Za prvé je Whitefieldův život poutavým příběhem, který téměř nemá obdoby. Od svých 24 let, kdy vedl největší shromáždění, jaká kdy Amerika viděla, až do své smrti o 30 let později, naslouchal jeho hlasu celý anglicky mluvící svět. Vládne všeobecná shoda, že byl největším kazatelem 18. století a J. C. Ryle o jeho výjimečném kazatelském obdarování napsal: „Věřím, že žádný Angličan, ať už živý či mrtvý, se mu nikdy nevyrovná.“ Za druhé se kázání George Whitefielda stala proměňujícím vlivem historické epochy, která formovala dějiny Británie a Spojených států. Povstalo hnutí, při němž se probudilo dosud spící učení reformace. Zapomenuté pravdy kázané pod širým nebem pozvedly Anglii i jednotlivé americké kolonie, utvořily národní náboženské vědomí, prolomily náboženskou mrtvolnost Skotska a učinily z Walesu národ vychovaný na Bibli, a to vše bylo úzce spjato s působením Whitefielda. Z jeho věrné služby má dodnes užitek celý křesťanský svět. Za třetí nám Whitefieldův život, který začal v době obrovské náboženské lhostejnosti a skepticismu, poskytuje neobyčejný studijní materiál k průběhu křesťanského probuzení, které je co do velikosti snad druhé hned po apoštolské éře. Skryté prameny velkého evangelikálního probuzení nespočívaly v lidech ani v době, kdy se odehrálo, ale z Boží milosti v novém vylití Ducha svatého do srdcí a myslí lidí. Proto i my v dnešním světě máme naději, že se zvěst evangelia o odpuštění hříchů a novém životu v Kristu Ježíši bude šířit, dokud trvá doba milosti.

Power Play


In Power Play, leading game industry expert George E. Osborn reveals how video games - the world's largest entertainment medium - are being used by autocrats, populists and violent extremists to influence the real world around us. Video games are the world's largest entertainment medium. They are played by billions of people of all ages every year, generating hundreds of billions of dollars in revenue. But they are more than an entertainment product. They connect people across the globe, creating digital third places where people talk, share ideas and build identities, fostering diverse communities capable of dominating the digital discourse now shaping our reality. While democracies continue to underestimate the potential for influence in this space, others have seized the opportunity to control, co-opt or collaborate with video game communities to wield the power of these vast information ecosystems. Saudi Arabia is spending tens of billions of dollars acquiring video games businesses to wash its reputation. Russia has funded video game development to help spread disinformation about the war in Ukraine. Steve Bannon utilised tactics deployed by online video game communities to propel Donald Trump into the White House, and Charlie Kirk's alleged assassin even carved video game references into his bullets. Supported by the insights of politicians, academics and industry experts, Power Play is the vital guide for understanding this new political frontier, highlighting what democracies must do to protect and harness the immense power of play before the essential battle for digital influence is lost for good.

The American Dream


More than sixty years after it was first delivered, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s "The American Dream" speaks to us still — a timeless vision of a nation that belongs to everyone, and an invitation to help build it. In June 1961, Dr. King stood before graduating students at Lincoln University in Pennsylvania and offered something this country has always needed: hope grounded in truth. Two years before his iconic "I Have a Dream" address, he called on all Americans — of every race, background, and belief — to close the gap between democracy's promise and its practice. This beautiful edition pairs that landmark speech with a foreword from Dr. King's grandchild, Yolanda Renee King, who reflects on her grandfather's enduring vision and what it means to carry it forward today. Readers will take away:A deeper understanding of the American Dream as a shared promise — one that asks each of us to see our lives as bound up in one another's. A compassionate framework for recognizing injustice and responding with courage, clarity, and love. Dr. King's enduring case for nonviolence as the path most worthy of our highest ideals. An invitation to be "maladjusted" — to hold on to hope and refuse to accept the world as less than it could be. Dr. King believed that we are all caught in what he called "an inescapable network of mutuality." What diminishes one of us diminishes all of us — and what lifts one of us lifts all of us. That idea is as true today as it was in 1961.This book is for anyone ready to be part of something bigger than themselves. The dream is still alive, and there is still a place in it for you.

Multinational Order


US multinational firms are crucial actors that shape and sustain the rules of the world order. They inherit the advantages conferred by US informal power and generally guide the substance of US foreign economic policy. When they expand abroad to take advantage of the opportunities provided by international rules, their foreign investments anchor their interests and lead them to build political influence. Multinationals do not always win; but the main constraints on their power arise within the US political system. They generally prevail when they credibly link their private interests to public interests and generally fail when their profits clash with prevailing elite views of national security. This book presents sophisticated economics in readable terms and traces a detailed history of the emergence of order in trade, finance, decolonization, development, property rights and intervention since 1945 and into the twenty-first century.

Blood Dawn


'This is the history we so badly needed' ANTONY BEEVOR'Essential reading for understanding Asia's present' RICHARD OVERYA momentous new history of World War II in Asia. In the early twentieth century, from India to China, Western imperial powers dominated Asia. Then, in the 1930s, Japan began to tear down this old order in pursuit of its own imperial ambitions - first by invading China, and then by launching its assault against British, Dutch, and American outposts across Asia and the Pacific in December 1941. As Japanese forces seized vast swaths of territory and pressed toward India, the brutal fighting cost millions of lives across the continent. Simultaneously, the war's chaos and suffering supercharged anti-colonial movements from British India to Dutch Indonesia. Ultimately, it was the charismatic leaders of these movements - Mao, Nehru, Sukarno - who built the new Asia of independent nation-states that emerged in the war's bloody wake. Drawing on deep archival research across continents, leading historian Hans van de Ven tells the dramatic story of how Asia's people mobilized to defeat both Japanese aggression and European imperialism, forging modern Asia in the process. Blood Dawn is a landmark new account of one of the most important and overlooked episodes of the twentieth century, revealing how Asia's Second World War was central in creating the post-war order.
