The Mount of Vision

The Mount of Vision

Christopher Z. Hobson

Oxford University Press Inc
2012
sidottu
Christopher Z. Hobson offers the first in-depth study of prophetic traditions in African American religion. Drawing on contemporary speeches, essays, sermons, reminiscences, and works of theological speculation from 1800 to 1950, he shows how African American prophets shared a belief in a ''God of the oppressed:'' a God who tested the nation's ability to move toward justice and who showed favor toward struggles for equality. The Mount of Vision also examines the conflict between the African American prophets who believed that the nation could one day be redeemed through struggle, and those who felt that its hypocrisy and malevolence lay too deep for redemption. Contrary to the prevalent view that black nationalism is the strongest African American justice tradition, Hobson argues that the reformative tradition in prophecy has been most important and constant in the struggle for equality, and has sparked a politics of prophetic integrationism spanning most of two centuries. Hobson shows too the special role of millennial teaching in sustaining hope for oppressed people and cross-fertilizing other prophecy traditions. The Mount of Vision incorporates a wide range of biblical scholarship illuminating diverse prophetic traditions as well as recent studies in politics and culture. It concludes with an examination of the meaning of African American prohecy today, in the time of the first African American presidency, the semicentenary of the civil rights movement, and the sesquicentennial of the American Civil War: paradoxical moments in which our ''post-racial'' society is still pervaded by injustice, and prophecy is not fulfilled but endures as a challenge.
The Most Significant People, Places, and Events in the Bible
As the inspired Word of God, the Bible is beautifully complex and rich—this can sometimes make it a difficult book to read, understand, and retain. Using lists, maps, charts, and other visual aids, The Most Significant People, Places, and Events in the Bible brings to visual clarity the overarching story of Scripture. Author Christopher D. Hudson—a visual learner himself—constructed this Quickview Guide to make the Bible accessible and memorable for students, laypeople, and anyone curious to know more about God's Word. In an accessible, informative way, it presents at-a-glance snapshots that visually communicate key stories and insights through four main sections: QuickView Summaries—provides outlines of Bible books and sections. QuickGlance Bible Characters—reveals the highs and lows of central Bible figures' lives. QuickScan Bible Places—describes key geographical locations and buildings in the Bible. QuickLook Bible Events—traces the main happenings in the Bible's vast and interconnected history. Much of human understanding occurs visually. When it comes to quickly grasping and retaining information, the human brain functions best with a combination of both words and pictures. The Most Significant People, Places, and Events in the Bible is your gateway to a better understanding and appreciation of the greatest book in history.

Most of us are familiar with the exciting adventures of David and Goliath, Noah, or Daniel in the lions' den, but we don't always understand how they fit together. We lack context, and so we sometimes miss the point.The Most Important Stories of the Bible will give you a working knowledge of the key events in Scripture and how they flow into one big story. The book's 75 stories are compact, easy to read, and enjoyable. Each chapter includes a brief introduction that gives historical context to help you grasp the overall narrative of the Bible, and concludes with an explanation of why that story matters in our lives.There's a reason most of the Bible is made up of stories. They speak to us in a deep way, helping us internalize God's message. And in the end, understanding the stories of God's Word will help us connect more closely to Jesus, the greatest storyteller of all.

There have been many conquerors through the ages, but only one was never defeated--Alexander the Great. With his death, scholars believed the source of his might was lost forever. They were wrong. ------Former C.I.A. operative Hannibal Poe always does the right thing...after he's tried everything else. It's an expensive habit, costing Hannibal his job and very nearly his freedom. Reduced to being a "security consultant" for a global corporation, he drifts aimlessly until he takes an off-the-books mission from his former Agency handler and saves the life of fugitive hacker Noah Riley. Taking advantage of his career as a gun-for-hire, his handler asks him to complete one more mission. He must protect the brilliant archeologist Alexandra Seymour and any relics she recovers in her quest for the lost tomb of Alexander the Great. To get back into the Agency's good graces, Hannibal grudgingly agrees to the task, but to protect Noah he must take him along for the ride. Getting his job back is soon the least of Hannibal's worries. His ruthless employer, corporate titan Erik King, has discovered that the C.I.A. believes the Omphalos, the mythic relic used by the Oracle of Delphi to predict the future, may lie within the hidden tomb. King will pay any price to seize it. Now hunted by religious fanatics, fellow soldiers of fortune, and the self-proclaimed Lord of Hell, Hannibal and his team of misfits must decipher the ancients' riddles, navigate underwater death traps and elude the claws of the monstrous "Shackled" to claim the prize. But to keep his newfound friends alive and the Omphalos from shaping a dark new world, Hannibal will need to rely on more than his beloved Patton hand cannons. He must find the strength to overcome his hidden grief and do what's right one last time--or lose his very soul.------ His legend you know. The quest for his truth has just begun...

Navigating Time

This book develops an interdisciplinary theory of time by resolving conflicts between historic and contemporary theories and clarifying the notion of time competence. Christopher Hudson explores the origins and nature of time, investigating the meaning of its navigation on both an individual and a societal level. Drawing on Plato’s definition of time as the ‘moving image of eternity,’ Hudson advances a theory that identifies consciousness, change, and eternity as the three essential elements of time. He integrates contemporary phenomenology of the present moment, historical beliefs on consciousness, and philosophical and spiritual ideas about time into a theory that combines a variety of approaches and empirical results. Hudson argues that a comprehensive theory of time requires multiple perspectives, encompassing its objective and subjective dimensions, as well as an understanding of the timeless. This insightful book is a valuable read for scholars and students interested in the theory of time, particularly those in the disciplines of philosophy, spirituality, psychology, and sociology.

James Baldwin and the Heavenly City

Behind James Baldwin’s uncanny ability to evoke a nation’s crisis and potential hope lies his use of religious language to describe social and sexual transformation. The first study of its kind, James Baldwin and the Heavenly City shows that Baldwin’s novels use biblical ideas in partly but not fully secularized ways to express the possible human attainment of a new life embodying a real but undefinable holiness. Focusing on Baldwin’s six novels, along with essays, stories, and drama, the book first shows Baldwin’s method of recasting biblical and African American prophetic traditions to reveal their liberating core. It then examines several key themes: the prophet’s selection, seen in Baldwin’s debut novel, Go Tell It on the Mountain; the three linked ideas of prophetic art, the “apocalyptic body,” and the “apocalyptic city,” as presented in all his novels; and the polarity between prophecy and doubt, the subject of his last novel, Just Above My Head. This important work provides new readings of Baldwin’s novels, reassesses his once-neglected later fiction, and shows Gospel music’s centrality (with blues) in his fictional imagination.
