Ghislaine Girabaldi slammed her classified copy of an NSA briefing paper on her desk in front of Alicia Clooney. "What's this?" demanded the speaker. "Have you been to church lately?" Alicia Clooney picked up the document. The paper was an intelligence agency brief, classified Top Secret and NOFORN, which meant No Foreign access, with the subject line: "Islamic Jihad meetings in Damascus over the Stony Island Gang." "Is there something in here that matters to me?" asked Alicia. "I don't know anyone in Syria. And why, if it's Top Secret, are you showing it to me?" The speaker pursed her lips. "Don't bullshit me. You've seen a lot more than this, Alicia. God only knows how much Intel John gave you. But this involves your estranged husband, terrorists, and a priest." "Okay, what did John do now?" "He offered a bribe to the head of Islamic Jihad." Alicia gasped. "To do what? How much? Why?" "He wants Islamic Jihad to kill that old Jew, David Green," said Girabaldi.

Karen has lived a life of disappointment and grief. When she finds an abandoned baby, she decides to keep her and name her Cari Moses. Cari becomes the epicenter of Karen's life, but she is blind to the trail of devastation her actions leave in their wake. Karen's personal grief and deception are inextricably linked to the activities of a serial killer who harbors a fascination with pregnancy. These players inhabit a dark world of contrasts where the hopes and aspirations of youth become enmeshed in despair and depravity. Along the way, they face the weight of human frailty and discover what it takes to be extraordinary. In this psychological thriller, duality is brought to the forefront as the ruthless ambition and dubious skill of the amateur is pitched against the shortcomings of professionals, and the players are faced with harsh realities and dire consequences. Set among the rambling inland waterways and the rushing pulse of cities, Cari Moses unfolds through the drama of hospital life from midwifery to the ICU. A national police alert causes chaos, while relationships remain tenuous as Karen progresses toward discovery and retribution-and evil lurks in the shadows.

John Moses Browning: The Life and Legacy of the American Gunsmith Who Modernized Automatic and Semi-Automatic Firearms
*Includes pictures*Includes a bibliography for further readingThe Industrial Revolution that unfolded in Western societies at the dawn of the 19th century altered daily life as a rapidly developing paradigm. One historian suggests that in Europe and America, the highest known form of technology was the pipe organ before the rise of factories, steam drive combustion, and railway and communication breakthroughs built upon the mastery of electricity and transformed the standard processes of society. Such a rapid alteration of the prevailing world seemingly took place in a historical instant that propelled technology all the way to the age of powered flight. No less affected were the technological accomplishments that cast their influence over the wars so rampant in Europe through the past centuries. Military weapons benefited from various upgrades and innovations, even as the soldiers and generals remained confined within Napoleonic tactics while struggling to learn about the new principles of physics and engineering.Technological advancement within the field of mechanical engineering experienced a golden age in the 19th century. Virtually every profession that worked in the traditional materials of wood and metal developed a capacity for precision and functionality hitherto unknown. In the arena of portable weaponry for both the military and civilian population, several new inventions with endless variations redefined American and international habits of sport and war, not to mention exploration and frontier survival. The traditional musket had changed little through the previous century, and the insatiable quest for a repeat-firing mechanism remained as the arms industry's highest goal. The world knew that someone would find the solution and that future wars would occur, granting the nation to solve the riddle supremacy on the battlefield. The results of this pursuit were ushered in by several luminaries on the heels of an industrial revolution that had reshaped British industrial technology only a few decades prior.By the late 19th century, the nature of war weaponry, new naval paradigms and the first imaginings of aviation as a primary component of battle required yet another leap in technology. One single artisan arose from among many talents to meet the new challenge at a high level, far from the prestigious pistol and rifle factories of Connecticut. John Moses Browning was raised in what was at the time the "Wild West" of the Utah Country. His educational upbringing was both sparse and basic, but through the impetus of his father's gun-making business, he would become the greatest mind of the arms industry's modern age. Where Colt labored over one solitary concept that eventually led him to the modern repeating revolver, Browning's instinct proved able to visualize concepts far above his formal training and follow them through to a number of diverse and functional weapons. Although Winchester emerged into the greatest salesman of the modern repeating rifle and gathered early designers such as Benjamin Tyler Henry to his workshops, he was no inventor. Talents such as that of Browning were to be absorbed by the Winchester Repeating Arms Company in order to maintain an ongoing superiority in product lines and sales numbers. The major weapons manufacturers soon realized that there was no talent equal to that of the Utah frontiersman, and in time he was employed by all the top gun-makers in the United States and Europe, including Fabrique Nationale in Belgium. There, he was granted well-deserved respect and the right to see his inventions find the light of day, sought after for so long. The breadth of Browning's mechanical brilliance is evidenced by the reality that his designs from the pre-World War I era are still in production, and many are considered to be among the finest available models more than a century later.

In 1878, a Jerusalem antiquities dealer named Moses Wilhelm Shapira acquired a curious biblical manuscript consisting of sixteen leather strips. The manuscript, written in ancient, Paleo-Hebrew contained what appeared to be a form of the Bible's Book of Deuteronomy but with significant variations. It was allegedly discovered by Bedouin tribesmen around 1865, east of the Dead Sea, in a remote cave, high above the Wadi Mujib (biblical Arnon). Shapira believed that his manuscript was both ancient and authentic. In 1883, he presented his scroll to the leading scholars of Europe. Newspapers around the world covered the unfolding story as scholars debated the genuineness of the leather strips. Ultimately the scroll was deemed a forgery and Shapira the forger. However, beginning in 1947, ancient scrolls discovered in the Qumran caves near the Dead Sea lead us to ask-were the critics wrong? The Moses Scroll documents the details of the entire saga based upon what we know today including a chronological telling of the fascinating story based upon 19th-century reports; an assessment of the genuineness of Shapira's scroll; a new transcription of the manuscript as seen through the eyes of the 19th-century's best Hebraists; and the author's own translation of the original sixteen leather strips with a commentary and notes.

Before the plagues. Before the wilderness. There was a family-and a promise.The Moses Chronicles: Prelude is biblical historical fiction rooted in reverence, imagination, and faithful storytelling. Set in Egypt in the days following the death of Jacob-also called Israel-this novel invites readers to step into the sacred tension between the verses of Scripture.Jacob dies in the opening pages. But what unfolds afterward is a deeply human exploration of the legacy he leaves behind. His twelve sons-flawed, fierce, and still burdened by the past-must unite to bury their father. Their journey is not just back to Canaan, but into the heart of what it means to be family, to be forgiven, and to carry the weight of destiny.Joseph, once sold into slavery, now rules Egypt as Vizier. But while he governs with wisdom, he senses a troubling shift. His name is fading from the palace halls. The Hebrew who once saved the empire is being quietly erased. And the gods of Egypt are stirring. Whispers echo through the temple courts. Pharaoh's favor is not eternal. And danger is far closer than Joseph realizes.Told through the voices of Joseph, Asenath, Dinah, Benjamin, and others history nearly overlooked, Prelude paints a vivid portrait of the people behind the tribes of Israel. These are the brothers before they were banners. The women before they were forgotten. The moments before the tide of history turned.In this novel, readers will meet: Dinah, the once-defiled daughter of Jacob, now stepping into a new life among the Egyptians, raising daughters not her own and reclaiming her place in the story.Asenath, Joseph's Egyptian wife, navigating the clash of two cultures and the challenge of raising sons tied to a people who are not yet free.Benjamin, youngest of the twelve, carrying the tender burden of his father's love.Judah, haunted by old guilt, yet quietly growing into the lion he was meant to become.And at the center, Joseph, who must guide his family through the burial of their patriarch while protecting them from threats they cannot yet see-both in the land of their inheritance and the land of their oppression.This is biblical fiction that honors what is written-and breathes life into what is not. As the author writes in her note: "I may take creative liberties with what is not said-but I never want to alter what is said."Every subplot, every conversation, every act of forgiveness or defiance is born of historical study, cultural research, and prayerful imagination. The result is a story that feels both deeply grounded and strikingly fresh-inviting readers to sit with the sons of Israel around the fire, walk beside them on the road to Hebron, and glimpse the early cracks forming in Egypt's golden facade.This is not just the beginning of a book.This is the quiet before the fire, the threshold of a nation, the moment the heavens held their breath-before the deliverer was born.

LONGLISTED FOR THE MAN BOOKER INTERNATIONAL PRIZE 2017 It's 1970, and in the People's Republic of Congo a Marxist-Leninist revolution is ushering in a new age. But over at the orphanage on the outskirts of Pointe-Noire where young Moses has grown up, the revolution has only strengthened the reign of terror of Dieudonné Ngoulmoumako, the institution's corrupt director. So Moses escapes to Pointe-Noire, where he finds a home with a larcenous band of Congolese Merry Men and among the Zairian prostitutes of the Trois-Cents quarter. But the authorities won't leave Moses in peace, and intervene to chase both the Merry Men and the Trois-Cents girls out of town. All this injustice pushes poor Moses over the edge. Could he really be the Robin Hood of the Congo? Or is he just losing his marbles? Black Moses is a larger-than-life comic tale of a young man obsessed with helping the helpless in an unjust world. It is also a vital new extension of Mabanckou's extraordinary, interlinked body of work dedicated to his native Congo, and confirms his status as one of our great storytellers.

In this newly revised and updated edition, James F. Twyman shows you how to unlock the ancient power of the Moses Code to create miracles and compassion in our world.The Moses Code was first used 3,500 years ago to create some of the greatest miracles in the history of the world. Shortly afterwards, influential leaders decreed that the inherent energy was simply too vast and potentially dangerous to be used by anyone other than the highest initiates, so it was hidden away. In this new edition of his insightful book, James F. Twyman uncovers the Code, showing how it can be used to create miracles.At the very heart of the Moses Code is the true function and practice of the Law of Attraction. With new information and teachings, James explains that it's now time for the modern world to master the Code - not just to receive riches but to create a world based upon the laws of compassion and peace.James reveals that we all have an essential and individual role to play and that whatever the soul genuinely feels, the world and everything in it will transform in order to match that belief.
Deliverance: Moses the Lawgiver: Chronicles of Israel Book 1
Moses, a man torn between two worlds. Born to a humble Hebrew household, his life depends on keeping his existence hidden from the eyes of Pharaoh, the mighty ruler of Egypt. The hand of Providence places him within the royal palace itself, his true identity unknown to himself until the day destiny intervenes and he must choose his allegiance.Chosen by God to deliver His people, yet despised by those around him, Moses must find courage for the journey ahead, a journey that will require him to forsake all that he knows and place his fate into the hands of the Almighty.From L. M. Roth, author of A Dance in the Desert, the Story of Leah, Jacob, and Rachel, Battleground: Elijah and the War with Jezebel, and A Star in the Darkness Esther and the King of Persia, comes Book 1 of Chronicles of Israel. Deliverance: Moses the Lawgiver is a poignant and dramatic retelling of the timeless tale of Moses, both Prince of Egypt and the Lawgiver of God.

Is the Bible a Hellenistic book? The essays in this volume respond to that challenging question, formulated by Niels Peter Lemche, and offer everything from qualified agreement to vociferous opposition. In so doing, they debate and illuminate the many features of Jewish writing in the Second Temple period, including not only the scriptures themselves and their own history, but the non-canonized literature of the late Second-Temple period. As with all the volumes in this pioneering series, the editor, Lester Grabbe, introduces and reflects upon the discussion and its implications for one of the most controversial topics in current biblical studies.
