Llegó el momento de hablar de ella. Yo también me sucumbí a su hermosura, no fui diferente a tantos otros que descubrieron en ella la expresión máxima de la belleza física. Pero Nilia es mucho más que eso.

Back before Stonehenge or the wheel, back before the pyramids, math, or even the crudest writing existed, ancient peoples gathered and told stories. They told stories of how the world began, what the first people were like, and which of them were heroes or failures. They tried to make sense of the world around them and tried to sort out who the gods were and what those gods wanted from them. More than 10,000 years later, one set of those stories has come down to us in the form of the Old Testament. Perhaps you think you know it. Think again.

Mark Scandrette shows how the Beatitudes invite us into nine new postures for life. Instead of living in fear, we can choose radical love. It's often assumed that the good life is only for the most wealthy, attractive, and powerful. Poor, sad, and suffering people are left out. But the ninefold path of the Beatitudes is for everyone. Whatever your story, whatever your struggle, wherever you find yourself, this way is available to you.

Most historians agree that John Mark is the author of this account of the good news and it may have been one of the first Gospels written. What also distinguishes this book among the other Gospels is the emphasis of the suffering of Yeshua. This could have been due to the fact that during the time in history around 65 AD, Christians in Rome were experiencing great persecution. Some believe that Mark was attempting to emphasize Yeshua’s suffering in order to bring comfort and encouragement to the Church which was suffering as a whole.

"Le livre de Néhémie" est un livre de la Bible hébraïque et de l'Ancien Testament. Le livre couvre une période de douze ans (-445/-433). "Le livre de Néhémie" raconte les progrès et les difficultés de l'œuvre à Jérusalem après le retour des Juifs de la captivité babylonienne.

"Le 1er livre des Maccabées" relate la révolte des Maccabées depuis le déclenchement de la révolte en Judée contre les souverains séleucides et jusqu'au règne de Jean Hyrcan. Il couvre une période d'environ 40 ans entre 175 et 135 av. J.-C. La révolte des Maccabées est à la fois une révolte des Juifs de Judée contre les Séleucides et un conflit interne au peuple juif opposant les traditionalistes aux Juifs hellénisants. Elle tire son nom de la famille des Maccabées, dont Mattathias et ses fils Judas et Simon.

"Le 2e livre des Maccabées" est un livre de l'Ancien Testament relatant la révolte des Maccabées sous un angle plus théologique et apologétique qu'historique. La période qu'il couvre est plus restreinte que celle du "1er livre des Maccabées" : il s'ouvre sur les derniers jours de Séleucos IV et se conclut sur la défaite quinze ans plus tard du général Nicanor par Judas Maccabée, héros de l'ouvrage.

"Le Siracide", appelé aussi "l'Ecclésiastique" ou encore "La Sagesse de Ben Sira", est l'un des livres de l'Ancien Testament écrit vers 200 av. J.-C. "Le Siracide" tient son nom de son auteur, Jésus Ben Sira. L'ouvrage est un mélange de deux genres littéraires : tantôt des "proverbes", tantôt des développements structurés qui proposent des réflexions sur un sujet. Il s'agit toujours de la "Sagesse", représentée comme une personnification de la Sagesse divine.

"Le 2e livre des Chroniques" est un livre de l'Ancien Testament. Il suit "Le 1er livre des Chroniques", qui retrace l'histoire du monde de la Création à la royauté de David. À l'origine ces deux livres n'en formaient qu'un, appelé "Livres des Chroniques", mais ils ont été divisés probablement pour des raisons d'encombrement.

"Le 1er livre des Chroniques" est un livre de l'Ancien Testament. Dans le canon hébreu originel, le 1er et le 2e livres des Chroniques étaient assemblés dans un ouvrage, "Les livres des Chroniques". Une chronique (du mot grec chronicon) signifie un recueil de faits rapportés dans l'ordre de leur succession dans le temps. "Chroniques 1" retrace les événements de la Création du monde à la royauté de David.

Ecclesiastes is one of the Ketuvim ("Writings") of the Hebrew Bible and one of the "Wisdom" books of the Christian Old Testament. The title commonly used in English is a Latin transliteration of the Greek translation of the Hebrew word קֹהֶלֶת (Kohelet, Koheleth, Qoheleth or Qohelet). An unnamed author introduces "The words of Kohelet, son of David, king in Jerusalem" (1:1) and does not use his own voice again until the final verses (12:9-14), where he gives his own thoughts and summarises the statements of Kohelet; the main body of the text is ascribed to Kohelet himself.

These are the first four books of the New Testament in the Easy to Understand, Read Bible (EUR). The Bible is not just a book. It is the word of God, the ultimate source of truth, wisdom, and guidance for humanity. It is the story of God’s love for us and his plan for our salvation. It is the foundation of our faith, our hope, and our purpose. The Bible is God's word, and it has the power to change lives.

Many Christians are intimidated by the book of Revelation. They are convinced that it contains nothing but bad news. And they are further turned off by the great variety of bizarre interpretations of the book. In this book, Dr. Reagan explains that Revelation contains only good news for those who have accepted Jesus as their Lord and savior. Further, he proves that the book can be understood by any Christian who is willing to accept its plain sense meaning.

The theme of divine sonship stretches across the pages of the Bible: from Adam in the garden of Eden, through the nation of Israel and King David, and ultimately to Jesus Christ in the New Jerusalem―the Son of God par excellence. In this volume, renowned biblical scholar Graeme Goldsworthy shows what Christ's fulfillment of the divine sonship motif means for all who are sons and daughters of God.

How should Christians conduct themselves in an increasingly secular society? Jesus answered this troubling question on the eve of His death with some of the most poignant, powerful teachings in His entire ministry. During those hours, Jesus taught His apostles and, consequently, all believers throughout history, How to Survive in a World of Unbelievers.

L'"Épître aux Colossiens" est un livre du Nouveau Testament. Selon la tradition chrétienne, cette lettre fut envoyée par l'apôtre Paul à l'Église de Colosses. La ville de Colosses a été détruite par un tremblement de terre au début de l'an 60. C'est une lettre écrite aux Colossiens après la visite d'Épaphras, évangélisateur de l'Église de Colosses. Épaphras dit à Paul que les Colossiens tombaient dans une grave erreur : ils pensaient qu'ils étaient meilleurs que les autres parce qu'ils observaient soigneusement certaines ordonnances extérieures.
