An attempt has been made to show the biblical and scientific relationship which exists between Palestine, Israel, and Jerusalem without prejudices. Since the New World was built after the Old World by Noah's three sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth, it seems logical that all nations can agree that they all came from one and are not unequal or unrelated in this "new" world.

With years of research and study under his belt, author John A. Pinkston tackles the daunting task of describing the lineage, and consequently, the current whereabouts of the ten tribes of Israel. Through Pinkston's extensive study and research, readers will find themselves tracking the modern-day empires through the ages, one Israelite king at a time. Our Lost National Identity: Tracing the Lineage of Israel's Lost Ten Tribes, cites the actions of the tribes that separated them from God and how alliances, enemies and wars inevitably spread the chosen people of God across the globe. By identifying characteristics of each tribe, referencing works of antiquity, and the unfulfilled prophecies of the Bible, Pinkston approaches a widely discussed subject from the beginning of it with Abraham and the unconditional promises, and walks readers down an intricate path of discovery to find Our Lost National Identity.

Israel My Son reveals the transcendent plan of God for Mankind, birthed through the nation of Israel. From before the foundation of the world, God intentioned that His plan for the Salvation of mankind be centred and administered in and through Israel, as the Word of God says, "...salvation is of the Jews" (John 4:22). The Spiritual Promised Land of Christ and the natural land of Israel became forever intertwined in the purposes of God beginning with Abraham's Obedience and completed in Christ. A proper understanding of the significance of Israel to the counsels of God, provides access to keys allowing us to apprehend the fullness of God's comprehensive plan, and the facility to be aligned with His purposes in this hour, for our nations. Israel My Son is a key to understanding your Hebraic roots, and how your identity is shaped as it relates to God's comprehensive plan. If you are Christ's then this book is important for you as Jesus is the King of the Israel of God, who will reign eternally in Jerusalem. From the beginning to the end, it reveals key features of the greatest story ever told, and without which major parts of the panoramic landscape of God's vision are obscured, producing many errors of interpretation.

The Myth of the Twelve Tribes of Israel is the first study to treat the history of claims to an Israelite identity as an ongoing historical phenomenon from biblical times to the present. By treating the Hebrew Bible's accounts of Israel as one of many efforts to construct an Israelite history, rather than source material for later legends, Andrew Tobolowsky brings a long-term comparative approach to biblical and nonbiblical “Israelite” histories. In the process, he sheds new light on how the structure of the twelve tribes tradition enables the creation of so many different visions of Israel, and generates new questions: How can we explain the enduring power of the myth of the twelve tribes of Israel? How does “becoming Israel” work, why has it proven so popular, and how did it change over time? Finally, what can the changing shape of Israel itself reveal about those who claimed it?

Hailed as "the most radical repackaging of the Bible since Gutenberg", these Pocket Canons give an up-close look at each book of the Bible.

Venerated for millennia by three faiths, torn by irreconcilable conflict, conquered, rebuilt, and mourned for again and again, Jerusalem is a sacred city whose very sacredness has engendered terrible tragedy. In this fascinating volume, Karen Armstrong, author of the highly praised A History of God, traces the history of how Jews, Christians, and Muslims have all laid claim to Jerusalem as their holy place, and how three radically different concepts of holiness have shaped and scarred the city for thousands of years. Armstrong unfolds a complex story of spiritual upheaval and political transformation--from King David's capital to an administrative outpost of the Roman Empire, from the cosmopolitan city sanctified by Christ to the spiritual center conquered and glorified by Muslims, from the gleaming prize of European Crusaders to the bullet-ridden symbol of the present-day Arab-Israeli conflict. Written with grace and clarity, the product of years of meticulous research, Jerusalem combines the pageant of history with the profundity of searching spiritual analysis. Like Karen Armstrong's A History of God, Jerusalem is a book for the ages. BONUS: This edition contains an excerpt from Karen Armstrong's Twelve Steps to a Compassionate Life.
