Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you ever wondered why the Law of Moses was given To The children of Israel, especially if true salvation could only come through Christ? Have you ever been confused regarding the status of the Old Testament laws in the new covenant? If God's law commands that an adulteress be stoned, why did Jesus not condemn the woman caught in the act of adultery? These are only a few of the questions that haunt Christians that attempt to rectify the old covenant with the new. Jesus himself proclaimed that he did not come to destroy the law but to fulfill it. Follow Kurt, a seeker for truth, who finds himself immersed in a conversation with the Law of Moses in A Chance Encounter with the Law. Kurt is anxious to ask the toughest questions, pointing out seeming inconsistencies within the Scriptures. However, with faith that all Scripture is inspired, Kurt is answered with patience, insight, and wisdom. Join along in this intense dialog where Kurt gleans an in-depth understanding from the Scriptures concerning: Salvation the details of the new and old covenants the true purpose of the law the blessings promised to believers that seek the truth Common misconceptions in doctrines like the new birth, The indwelling of the Spirit, and much more... Kurt Hedstrom received a bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering from Michigan Technological University in 1977, and he worked in that field For The next twenty-six years. After giving his life To The Lord in 1988, he began to passionately pursue scriptural truth. In 2003, he left the workforce for a period of time to devote himself solely To The study of God's Word. From 2003 to 2010, he worked with tireless diligence on the fruit that would become this book. He and his wife, Joan, live in Lakeland, Florida, with their four boys.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Calum M. Carmichael here challenges commonly accepted views respecting the derivation of the biblical laws recorded in Deuteronomy and the Decalogue, presenting compelling evidence that literary traditions, rather than social imperatives, dictated the form taken by the laws. Carmichael confronts and discusses such problematic and important issues as the sequence in which apparently unrelated laws appear. Why, he then asks, are some laws general in scope, while others are extremely specific? Acknowledging the literary sophistication of the biblical compilers, Carmichael accounts for their attribution of the Deuteronomic laws to Moses, and of the Decalogue to Yahweh. He asserts that, in order to preserve the prophetic impact of their material, the compilers closely studied existing biblical narrative, and selected laws which maintained the appropriate historical context. Using this perspective, Carmichael is able to detect strong logical continuity in both the structure and the content of the Decalogue and the Deuteronomic laws. An original and distinguished contribution to the study of biblical law, Law and Narrative in the Bible will interest legal historians and Biblical scholars alike.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: France, July 1918. Nineteen-year-old Roland Massey, fresh out of grammar school, has been conscripted into the British Army and sent to the Western Front. His over-riding aim is to see out the remainder of the war and return unscathed to the comfortable middle-class life he left behind in Cheshire. Following a battle near Rheims, he is given temporary charge of Paul Sondheim, a captured German soldier. Their brief conversation results in a reunion after the war ... and Roland's introduction to Paul's sister, the beautiful Stefanie Sondheim. A Chance Encounter is a tale of friendship, romance, and betrayal set in the turbulent period between the closing months of the First World War and the early years of the Nazi dictatorship. It is a time of momentous social and political change in Germany, a time when those who dare to speak out, run the risk of imprisonment or worse. As Paul and Steffi are drawn into situations that have the potential to endanger their lives, can Roland intervene to prevent disaster? About the Author John Clark was born in Cheshire in 1951. He is a retired history teacher with a particular interest in the First World War. His many visits to the former battlefields of France and Flanders became the inspiration for this, his first novel.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Law, Judges and Visual Culture analyses how pictures have been used to make, manage and circulate ideas about the judiciary through a variety of media from the sixteenth century to the present. This book offers a new approach to thinking about and making sense of the important social institution that is the judiciary. In an age in which visual images and celebrity play key roles in the way we produce, communicate and consume ideas about society and its key institutions, this book provides the first in-depth study of visual images of judges in these contexts. It not only examines what appears within the frame of these images; it also explores the impact technologies and the media industries that produce them have upon the way we engage with them, and the experiences and meanings they generate. Drawing upon a wide range of scholarship – including art history, film and television studies, and social and cultural studies, as well as law – and interviews with a variety of practitioners, painters, photographers, television script writers and producers, as well as court communication staff and judges, the book generates new and unique insights into making, managing and viewing pictures of judges. Original and insightful, Law, Judges and Visual Culture will appeal to scholars, postgraduates and undergraduates from a variety of disciplines that hold an interest in the role of visual culture in the production of social justice and its institutions.

Book excerpt: For young Paris Branch, life is about to begin. Newly eighteen, she is ready to leave the limitations of her small-town life behind. Carson, Virginia, may be where she was born, but it's not where she sees her future. An inbound freshman at Howard University, she has her eyes on a bright, new life in the nation's capital. There, she will truly blossom into the woman she is destined to be. She can't wait to start her journey. For Billy, it is love at first sight. Paris is slightly older, and Billy slightly wiser; and a romance between two people of different races presents a complication. Both know that their budding love is a problem. In 1965, interracial romance is a dangerous dream to pursue. Determined to win her heart, no matter the cost or peril, Billy romances her with a single-minded pursuit. Despite their differences in age and race, her future and his present, and the crippling intolerance and racism their relationship faces, they will fight for their love...together.

It follows them and their families through their courtship, marriage, and beyond. Together they experience a mature love. Revised 2012 edition. This story contains scenes of a mature nature.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For centuries, Chaucer has been associated with law. This study, however, is concerned less with the overt in Chaucer that concerns law than with the concealed and private: a specific body of materials -- records from the medieval English law courts that the poet evidently read, studied, discussed with colleagues, and then threaded into his texts. This book examines the effects of those documents on the so-called "minor" poems, The House of Fame, and The Canterbury Tales.

Book excerpt: Education Law, 5th Edition is organized around the belief that students need to read court cases to understand the subtlety and richness of the law, but for legal neophytes, cases without discussion and interpretation are often too difficult to comprehend. This textbook provides a comprehensive survey of the legal problems and issues that confront school administrators and policymakers today. Thus, the text balances an explanation of the important principles of education law, with actual court decisions to illuminate these concepts. The court decisions are carefully edited to highlight issues most relevant to administrators, and each chapter explores implications for policy and practice. This new edition features additional content on bullying, student privacy, free speech rights, teacher evaluation, collective bargaining, and issues relating to Internet and technology as well as revised materials dealing with education policy and updating of references and case law throughout. A companion website with materials for students and instructors, including links to full cases, a glossary of key concepts, and discussion questions to help students further engage with the content.
