Although 1 Cor 15:29 ("Otherwise what are they to do, who have themselves baptized on account of the dead? If the dead are not really raised, why are they baptized on account of them?") has received a vast amount of attention in the biblical academy, there is no scholarly consensus as to its meaning. In order to break the current impasse, this volume reviews and critiques the over forty different interpretations of 15:29, then examines the verse anew in terms of its literary, historical, and theological contexts within the writings of Paul. On the basis of this study, Hull concludes that 1 Cor 15:29 is a dual rhetorical question in which Paul holds up one group within the Corinthian community as a laudable example for the entire community. Specifically, those who have themselves baptized are undergoing the rite of baptism because of their steadfast faith in the resurrection of Christ and, concomitantly, of Christians. They undergo the rite of baptism "on account! of the dead"—on account of the fact that the dead are destined for life—and thus shame the arrogance and ignorance of those among the Corinthians who deny the resurrection (1 Cor 15:12).

Revisit The Old Mill is a compilation of thousands of hours of research regarding the history of an iconic structure that influenced the entire state of Texas during the late 1800s and early 1900s. This nonfiction account of Texas history explains how the old water mill began as a grist mill and later was converted into an electrical power plant. Built by early settlers, its reach extended statewide. Its influence and impact on those who learned from it resulted in empires and dynasties that came to fruition -- all grounded on this mill that began in a small town. The Old Mill was owned by governors, bankers, entrepreneurs, statesmen, builders, and pathfinders who developed the Lone Star State. The visions, drive, and risks for a state often under attack by Indians were immense, and culminated in the building of cities, railroads, utilities, schools, churches, and additional mills. This book traces the history of The Old Mill, complete with numerous never-before-published photographs, details about the milling process, a look at what the early immigrants were facing, the impact of the War Between The States, and profiles of the heroes who went beyond the norm to make wheat processed at The Old Mill garner "the highest wagon prices of any wheat in Texas." Revisit The Old Mill provides an opportunity to travel back in time, to days of the old west as cities and homesteads began to erupt on the Texas plains, when seeds for the future of Texas were planted and the results were remarkable.

"Phillips's short chapter on lessons the U.S. should have learned from the Vietnam War should be mandatory reading in Washington, D.C." -- Publishers Weekly"It is, among other things, a wonderful read, full of detail and drama." --George Packer, The New YorkerRufus Phillips offers an extraordinary inside history of the most critical years of American involvement in Vietnam, from 1954 to 1968, and explains why it still matters. Describing what went right and then wrong, he finds that our failure to understand the Communists, our South Vietnamese allies, or even ourselves took us down the wrong road of a conventional war until it was too late--we missed the war's essential political character. Documenting the story from his own personal files, now available at the Texas Tech Vietnam Archive, as well as from the historical record, the former government official paints striking portraits of such key figures as John F. Kennedy, Maxwell Taylor, Robert McNamara, Henry Cabot Lodge, Hubert Humphrey, and Ngo Dinh Diem, among others with whom he dealt.

They collect their party on their way, at their respective houses. Whenever they pass by the tomb of a saint, their music ceases for a short time, and they recite the Fa't'hhah, or a form of blessing on the Prophet, similar to that preparatory to the zikr, which I have translated in my account of the Moo'lid of the Prophet. They do this without stopping. Arriving at t'he mosque, they enter; some of them with candles; visit the shrine; and go away; with the exception of their sheykh and a few others, who sometimes remain in the ckoob'beh, and join in reciting prayers, &c. One of the nights which offer most attractions is that of the Friday (that is, preceding the Friday) next before the night of the Moo'lid. It is the night of the sheykh El-Go'heree, a person of wealth, who illuminates the mosque on this occasion with an unusual profusion of lights. On this night, I went to the mosque about two hours after sunset; before any of the ceremonies had commenced. The nearer I approached the building the more crowded did I find the streets. In one place, were musicians: before a large coffee-shop, were two Greek dancingboyB or gink) elegant but effeminate in. appearance with flowing hair, performing to the accompaniment of mandolines played by two of their countrymen; and a crowd of admiring Turks, with a few Egyptians, surrounding them. They performed there also the evening before; and, I was told, became so impudent from the patronage they received as to make an open seizure of a basket of grapes in the street. On enterin...

"Lushly textured pencil drawings capture the mystery, surprise, and anticipation of . . . the most magical night of the year." — Publishers WeeklyOnce upon a time, children imagined St. Nicholas as a stern, skinny bishop who was as likely to dole out discipline as Christmas presents. But thanks to the anonymous publication of the poem "Account of a Visit from St. Nicholas" in the Troy Sentinal in 1823, a plumper, merrier St. Nick was born, transformed into the sleigh-riding, chimney-diving, jolly old elf we now call Santa Claus. Complemented by gorgeous monochrome illustrations that are meticulously true to pre-Victorian times, this definitive volume of 'Twas the Night Before Christmas, honoring the poem's original language, is available in a compact gift edition.
