The Targums

The value and significance of the targums - translations of the Hebrew Bible into Aramaic, the language of Palestinian Jews for centuries following the Babylonian Exile - lie in their approach to translation: within a typically literal rendering of a text, they incorporate extensive exegetical material, additions, and paraphrases. These alterations reveal important information about Second Temple Judaism, its interpretation of its bible, and its beliefs.This remarkable survey introduces critical knowledge and insights that have emerged over the past forty years, including targum manuscripts discovered this century and targums known in Aramaic but only recently translated into English. Prolific scholars Flesher and Chilton guide readers in understanding the development of the targums, their relationship to the Hebrew Bible, their dates, their language, their place in the history of Christianity and Judaism, and their theologies and methods of interpretation.

This 2007 thesis at the Naval Postgraduate School provides instructive review of the reasons the US Navy has historically taken second place to the US Air Force in providing and utilizing military access to space, then puts forward proposals for improving the situation, notably, the formation of an independent Space Corps. Nearly twenty years later, the context has shifted, with the Navy ever more dependent on satellite services, and space-based surveillance a key element in the new "kill chain" of anti-ship ballistic and hypersonic weapons. The Navy, whose mission uniquely involves slow-moving persistence of large, not especially stealthy, objects over the vast expanses of the world's oceans, is also uniquely sensitive to the adversary capabilities afforded by small, extremely-fast-moving objects passing far overhead. Future naval wars with peer competitors will be inextricably connected with US military space capabilities.This document proposes an alternative construct for the organization and utilization of Navy space resources. It discusses the history and development of space systems in the United States, including the Navy's involvement. The document emphasizes the need for a stronger Navy presence in space and the potential establishment of a U.S. Space Force. It provides information on various organizations, programs, and concepts related to the Navy's space program. The document also discusses the roles and responsibilities of entities within the Navy and the Department of Defense related to space systems and communications. It highlights the importance of the Navy Space Cadre and the need for clear goals and objectives for their effective management and operation. The document addresses the challenges and issues surrounding the control and operation of satellite systems within the Department of Defense and suggests consolidating these functions under one organization for improved efficiency. Overall, it emphasizes the need for a more streamlined and centralized approach to satellite control and operations.This annotated edition illustrates the capabilities of the AI Lab for Book-Lovers to add context and ease-of-use to manuscripts. It includes five types of abstracts, building from simplest to more complex: TLDR (one word), ELI5, TLDR (vanilla), Scientific Style, and Action Items; four essays to increase viewpoint diversity: Context in the Discourse, Formal Dissent; Red Team Critique; and MAGA Perspective; and Notable Passages and Nutshell Summaries for each page.Original contains several color images (simple PowerPoint charts) which are reproduced here in grayscale as it was judged that the benefit did not justify the printing costs's significant impact on list price.

Visitors to Texas and New Mexico have marvelled for centuries at the immensity of the Llano Estacado and the surprising contrast as, at the edges of the great mesa, the flat ground gives way suddenly to such spectacular formations as the Palo Duro and Caprock Canyons. In the introduction to Amarillo Flights, artist and naturalist Walt Davis chronicle the history of this region - what Paul Chaplo calls the 'Llano Country' - and of those artists, mapmakers, and travelers who have tried in various ways to capture its spirit.Working in 'the vast studio of the sky', aerial photographer Chaplo has battled high winds, turbulence, dust, ice, near-miss bird strikes, wildfire smoke, and a host of aircraft problems to show the Llano Country from a place most of us will never be. Covering more than forty thousand square miles, he explores the incredible beauty and rich cultural history of the Panhandle and the surrounding landscapes, from canyons in New Mexico and Texas to hills and plains in Oklahoma. With the help of daring pilots, numerous aircraft, and a remarkably steady hand, Chaplo manages to capture in more than 100 striking photographs the shapes, textures, and colours of the rugged landforms that cannot be perceived fully from the ground.Sharing in his unique view from the southwestern sky, readers will experience from afar - and sometimes impossibly close - the sunlit canyons, storm-covered plains, and winding rivers cutting deep into the red earth that drew Chaplo to this region. For those who appreciate the Llano Estacado, Texas and Eastern New Mexico history, and landscape photography, this book provides a fresh and perception-challenging perspective.
