Thrawn and his allies race to save the Chiss Ascendancy from an unseen enemy in the second book in the epic Star Wars: Thrawn Ascendancy trilogy from bestselling author Timothy Zahn. Thrawn's latest triumph still rests newly on his shoulders. He has led the Chiss to victory and brought glory to the House of Mitth, but the true threat to the Ascendancy has not yet been extinguished.

As Thrawn and the Expansionary Defense Fleet rally to uncover the plot, they discover a chilling truth: Rather than invade Chiss capitals or pillage resources, their enemy strikes at the very foundation of the Ascendancy, seeking to widen the rifts between the Nine Ruling Families and the Forty Great Houses below.

World-renowned Bible translator and commentator George M. Lamsa explains nearly one thousand crucial idioms that will enrich reading of the Old and New Testaments for students and general reader alike. Lamsa, who was raised speaking Aramaic in a community that followed customs largely unchanged since the times of Christ, offers fresh, accurate translations of important idioms, metaphors, and figures of speech found in the Scripture-and provides clear explanations of their meaning of biblical context. Just as Shakespeare, Milton, and Browning wrote in the vernacular for English-speaking people, Moses the prophets, and the apostles wrote for their own people in the plain language of their times, so that even the unlearned might understand God's Word. Over the centuries, inaccurate translations and misunderstandings of customs and concepts have led to difficulties in bringing the biblical message to contemporary English-speaking readers. For example, when a man says to Jesus, "le

Qual è la pulsione più forte dell'uomo? Il sesso o l'amore? "Per conquistare una donna devi possederle la testa" è l'assioma alla base di ogni azione per Sam. La seduzione non solo fisica, ma prima di tutto mentale, è essenziale per la ricerca della sua completezza. Il sesso sfrenato e l'amore puro sembrano non poter coesistere, ma la ricerca continua porta inevitabilmente all'epilogo come una scalata all'orgasmo.

You Are Living in a New Era History's greatest Renaissance--a spiritual one--is now unfolding. In his first two "Seven Mountain" books, The Seven Mountain Prophecy and The Seven Mountain Mantle, Johnny Enlow showed how Christians are called to manifest the kingdom of God in the seven primary spheres of society: religion, education, family, government, economy, media, and celebration/arts. Now, he reveals the sweeping changes he expects to take place over the next several decades in each of these spheres as he unveils his vision and strategy through 2050. We have entered an "Era of Renaissance" that will not be complete until the nature and character of the invisible God are made visible in the world through the influence of His ambassadorial children. The first Renaissance in history showcased the achievements of man, but this new Renaissance will display the brilliance and works of God for the whole world to see.
