From Jerusalem to the Lion of Judah and Beyond provides the most thorough analysis of Israels foreign policy towards East Africa. Since its modern reestablishment, Israel has sought political allies in the international community. To achieve that goal, Israel offers technological, economic and military assistance to developing nations. Historically, four East African countriesEthiopia, Kenya, Uganda, and Tanzania were prime beneficiaries of that effort. Later, these efforts were extended to Eritrea and South Sudan. Israel has been demonstrating its willingness to off er a far greater share of its limited resources to international assistance, than practically any other nation, large or small. Since 1948, Israels foreign policy towards East Africa exemplifies these immortal words: I will also give thee [Israel] for a light to the nations, that My salvation may be unto the end of the earth. Isaiah 49:6. The chronicles of these laudable activities are little known, even to post World War II historians. No other book to date covers this subject in as much depth. Anyone seeking a more profound understanding of Israels foreign policy, as well as its historic relationship with East Africa, will find From Jerusalem to the Lion of Judah and Beyond of interest.

A deep shroud of mystery surrounds the book of Revelation, and it lends itself to a wide variety of interpretations. Its style and symbolism intimidate us and leave us bewildered; yet there is a thread of continuity and strength permeating its pages. Not just another book on Revelation, Dennis LaValley's "Revelation: Beyond the Cross" cuts through layers of poor translation and error to solve the problems presented by hundreds of years of misinformation. In a conversational style, LaValley writes to reveal Revelation's true purpose: the full, vivid story of Jesus's return to heaven after his ministry on Earth. Through meticulous research, LaValley places Revelation back in the Bible, endows it with the authority of Scripture, and shows its relevance to the other books of the Bible and to the first-century Christian. He breaks down Revelation chapter by chapter and interprets the visions and symbols in accordance with the principles of apocalyptic literature using Scripture, not opinion. "Revelation: Beyond the Cross" shatters the bonds of tradition and superstition and strips away the mystery to reveal the pure and simple truth of the Gospel.
