The subject matter of this book touches the life of every American. No matter your political, religious, racial, or philosophical background, you are directly affected by events unfolding in the Middle East. The struggle between modern Jews and Palestinian Arabs in the old land of Canaan has been ongoing for about one hundred years. The spark for this geopolitical feud was ignited some thirty-eight centuries ago, approximately 1800 BC, when twin sons, Esau and Jacob, were born from the womb of Rebekah, the wife of Isaac, who himself was the promised child born to Abraham and Sarah. That a complete understanding of the Middle East Crisis and its solution lies as close as a copy of the Bible is not something that most people would believe. In this faithless generation, enlightened minds need to turn to the Bible for answers. God forbid that the arrogance and pride of modern man fail to consult with the Creator of heaven and earth and the revelation of His Word. Hopefully, those who read and ponder the pages of this book will surely find solace and comfort in knowing that the root cause of and solution to the Middle East Crisis lie as close at hand as the historic Bible.
No nation has been subjected to a wider range of biblical attitudes and emotions than Edom. In some sources, Edom is perceived as Israel’s brother; in many others, the animosity toward Edom is tremendous. The book of Genesis introduces Isaac, his wife Rebecca, and their twin sons, Esau and Jacob. Rivalry between the brothers emerges even before their birth and escalates over the course of their lives. The question of which son should be favored also causes tension in the parents’ relationship, and most of the Genesis text concerning Isaac and Rebecca revolves around this issue. The narrative describes the fraternal conflict between Jacob and Esau at length, and many hold that this description is a reflection of the hostility between Edom and Israel. However, the relationship between the brothers is not always depicted as strained. The twofold relationship between the brothers in Genesis—brotherhood and fraternity coupled with hatred and rivalry—introduces a dichotomy that is retained throughout the Hebrew Bible. In this monograph, Assis elucidates the complex relationship between Edom and Israel reflected in the Bible, to attempt to clarify the source of this complexity and the function that this relationship serves in the various biblical texts and Israel’s early history. He shows how this relationship plays an important role in the formation of Israel’s identity, and how the historical interaction between the nations influenced the people’s theological conception, as reflected in prophetic literature, poetry, and biblical narrative.
Explore the identity of Jacob-Israel, and uncover evidence that reveals the true identity of Esau-Edom. The descendants of Jacob, the Negroes, were once scattered to the four corners of the earth, including into the continents ofAfrica and the Americas through diaspora and slavery. Those who bought and sold the children of Israel to the Americas were the descendants of Esau. Since then, they have played an integral role in the demise of Jacob-Israel. Today, Edom-Rome rules the earth. However, there are many Biblical prophecies relative to Esau-Edom and the role he plays in the "last days". Therefore, it is crucial to identify who the descendants of Esau are. This book answers the questions: Who is Esau-Edom? Who are the Edomites? When, Where and How did the Edomites originate in History? and What effect did/does Esau-Edom they have on the chosen people of YAHUAH, the Hebrew Israelites?
Jacob and Esau is a profound new account of two millennia of Jewish European history that, for the first time, integrates the cosmopolitan narrative of the Jewish diaspora with that of traditional Jews and Jewish culture. Malachi Haim Hacohen uses the biblical story of the rival twins, Jacob and Esau, and its subsequent retelling by Christians and Jews throughout the ages as a lens through which to illuminate changing Jewish-Christian relations and the opening and closing of opportunities for Jewish life in Europe. Jacob and Esau tells a new history of a people accustomed for over two-and-a-half millennia to forming relationships, real and imagined, with successive empires but eagerly adapting, in modernity, to the nation-state, and experimenting with both assimilation and Jewish nationalism. In rewriting this history via Jacob and Esau, the book charts two divergent but intersecting Jewish histories that together represent the plurality of Jewish European cultures.

Growing up on a tiny Chesapeake Bay island, angry Louise reveals how Caroline has robbed her of everything: her hopes for schooling, her friends, her mother, even her name. While everyone pampers Caroline, Wheeze (her sister's name for her) begins to learn the ways of the watermen and the secrets of the island, especially of old Captain Wallace, who has mysteriously returned after fifty years. The war unexpectedly gives this independent girl a chance to fulfill her dream to work on the water alongside her father. But the dream does not satisfy the woman she is becoming. Alone and unsure, Louise begins to fight her way to a place for herself outside her sister's shadow. But in order to do that, she must first figure out who she is...

The Hebrew Bible is permeated with depictions of military conflicts that have profoundly shaped the way many think about war. Why does war occupy so much space in the Bible? In this book, Jacob Wright offers a fresh and fascinating response to this question: War pervades the Bible not because ancient Israel was governed by religious factors (such as 'holy war') or because this people, along with its neighbors in the ancient Near East, was especially bellicose. The reason is rather that the Bible is fundamentally a project of constructing a new national identity for Israel, one that can both transcend deep divisions within the population and withstand military conquest by imperial armies. Drawing on the intriguing interdisciplinary research on war commemoration, Wright shows how biblical authors, like the architects of national identities from more recent times, constructed a new and influential notion of peoplehood in direct relation to memories of war, both real and imagined.
