Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Heresy of Cain Jesus took him by the hand and lifted him up; and he arose. St. Mark ix. 27. There he lay upon the ground, the victim of the devil. What could be done With him? All remedies had failed. The physicians had prescribed for him; the apostles had prayed for him, - but to no purpose. Then came the Master, holding out his friendly hand; and he arose. It is a parable touching our own problems. What to do With the man Who is down Who can tell us? We stand about, as they stood that morning at the foot of the Transfiguration Hill, curious, sympathetic, desirous to help; some With theories, some with medicines, some With prayers. In the midst is the possessed of the devil. And the devil continues to possess him. What shall we do? We must give him our fraternal hand.

Download or read book Onslaught against Innocence written by Andre LaCocque and published by James Clarke & Company. This book was released on 2010-06-24 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a literary-critical analysis of the myth of Cain and Abel, masterfully related in Genesis 4 by the Yahwist, probably the greatest storyteller in the Hebrew Bible. The Yahwist narrates the initial slaughter of one human being by another, and strikingly, it is described as fratricidal. The book explores the anthropological, theological, and psychological dimensions of this universal myth and shows the readers such a vivid and intense story that one feels like will never get to the bottom of it. Thus, after a deep reading, this well known story is much more than what could seem at first sight; it can be said to be the portrait of human that is always torn between the innocence of Eden and its denial; between what is considered 'doing well' and 'not doing well'.

Download or read book The Mark of Cain written by Ruth Mellinkoff and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2023-04-28 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For few verses in the Bible is the relationship between scripture and the artistic imagination more intriguing than for the conclusion of Genesis 4:15: "And the Lord set a mark upon Cain, that whosoever found him should not kill him." What was the mark of Cain? The answers set before us in this sensitive study by art historian Ruth Mellinkoff are sometimes poignant, frequently surprising. An early summary of rabbinic answers, for examples runs as follows: R. Judah said: "He caused the orb of the sun to shine on his account." Said R. Nehemiah to him: "For that wretch He would cause the orb of the sun to shine! Rather, he caused leprosy to break out on him...." Rab said: "He gave him a dog." Abba Jose said: "He made a horn grow out of him." Rab said: "He made him an example to murderers." R. Hanin said: "He made him an example to penitents." R. Levi said in the name of R. Simeon b. Lakish: "He suspended judgment until the flood came and swept him away." After a review of such early Jewish and Christian exegesis, Mellinkoff divides physical interpretations on the mark into three groups: "A Mark on Cain's Body," "A Movement of Cain's Body," and "A Blemish Associated with Cain's Body." Her discussion of these groups is the heart of her study and offers its richest examples of interplay among medieval art and imaginative literature, on the one hand, and biblical exegesis, on the other. Thus in one remarkable tour de force, she shows us how a poetic misprision of Genesis 4:24 - "Sevenfold vengeance will be taken for Cain: but for Lamech seventy times sevenfold" - made Lamech the murderer of Cain; how there then grew up the legend that Lamech, a hunter, had killed Cain when he mistook him for an animal; how from that, the notion that the mark of Cain was a horn or horns on Cain's head arose (in the poignant formulation of the Tanhuma Midrash: "Oh father, you have killed something that resembles a man except it has a horn on its forehead!"); and how from that, in the maturity of the legend, there flowered Cornish drama, Irish saga, and stunning reliefs of a dying, antlered Cain in the cathedrals of Vezelay and Autun. Like Genesis 4:15 itself, 'The Mark of Cain' is suggestive rather than comprehensive. Concluding chapters on "Intentionally Distorted Interpretations of Cain's Mark" and "Cain's Mark and the Jews" bring the history down to our own day, but Mellinkoff does not claim to have said the last word on the subject. Her achievement is neither documentary nor exegetical but rather demonstrative: she shows us with brilliant economy how the artistic imagination functioned in a world whose intellectual definition was a closed canonical text.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This text presents a review of the serpent seed of Satan theory, how it is claimed to be a biblical teaching, whether Cain is the son of Satan and Eve, how ancient Bible manuscripts, apocryphal texts and Rabbinic writings depict the Garden of Eden events as well as various and sundry arguments made by this theory's promulgators. In this case, the focus is upon Zen Garcia who is a popular promulgator of this theory. "If this knowledge were taught in the seminaries or in Sunday school by teachers world-wide there would be no question or contention in regards to it as revelation...now, you will finally understand"-Zen Garcia
