A translation from the plates of Mormon

Of all the texts in the Hebrew and Christian scriptures, perhaps no book has a more colorful history of interpretation than Isaiah. A comprehensive history of this interpretation between the prophet Malachi and the first days of Christianity, Joseph Blenkinsopp's Opening the Sealed Book traces three different prophetic traditions in Isaiah -- the "man of God," the critic of social structures, and the apocalyptic seer. Blenkinsopp explores the place of Isaiah in Jewish sectarianism, at Qumran, and among early Christians, touching on a number of its themes, including exile, "the remnant of Israel," martyrdom, and "the servant of the Lord." Encompassing several disciplines -- hermeneutics, the Dead Sea Scrolls, Second Temple studies, Christian origins -- Opening the Sealed Book will appeal to Jewish and Christian scholars as well as readers fascinated by the intricate and influential prophetic visions of Isaiah.

An assignment turned deadly... Journalist Hayley Garner thought this was the chance of a lifetime. Instead, she's facing certain death. Taken hostage by terrorists, she knows she won't live to see the sun rise. That is until a Navy SEAL charges in to save her. Tall, dark, and handsome, he disappears before she can even thank him. But when her new story lands her at the Navy Training Facility, Hayley finds her sexy-as-sin SEAL. Even better, he asks her out. But not everything is going her way. Someone is after Hayley again. And the danger is as real as her feelings for Chasen. A rescue turned romance... The attack of 9/11 changed Chasen Ward. He switched career paths to become a SEAL and devote his life to fighting terrorism and protecting civilians. While that fulfils his work life, the hazards of his job are more than most women can take. The last thing he expected was to meet a woman whose job was as risky as his. He's falling fast for Hayley, but now she's in jeopardy. When Hayley is kidnapped, Chasen will turn San Diego inside out to find her. But will it be too late?
