    David is a good person unlike his father. He supports the truth and doesn’t support the stuff said by the church. He feels that everyone should be treated equally though he himself is scared of the fringes and the mutants. The only one who stops him from doing so is his father and he teaches all the other members of the family to also be like him.…

    The Old Testament ending leaves the reader very unsatisfied as the resolution to much of the issues, suffering and discomfort of God’s people was not resolved. It is not until the death of Christ in the New Testament that the reader can understand the significance of God’s sovereignty in these times of seemingly unfulfilled promises. Most of the Old Testament covenants that remained unfulfilled or only partially fulfilled were those in regards to David. In the book of Jeremiah it is written: “Behold, the days are coming, declares the Lord, when I will raise up for David a righteous Branch, and he shall reign as king and deal wisely, and shall execute justice and righteousness in the land. In his days Judah will be saved, and Israel will dwell securely.” (23:5-6). David is promised that from his line a king will reign over all people. David is also promised that the Messiah would come from his line so it is understandable why the Jews living around Jesus were so shocked to discover that he would not be overthrowing…

    King Hammurabi

    One of King Hammurabi’s lasting legacies is the inception of written laws, beginning with The Code of Hammurabi, circa 1800 BCE. Arguably, this diorite stele set forth precedents that to some degree, still hold true today such as equal retaliation as well as protection against the most vulnerable from the injustices of mobocracy and tyranny. He addressed various aspects of Babylonian life through the code, including marriage, agriculture, social strata and consequences for violating the code. Hammurabi considered himself a benevolent dictator; vowing to never undermine the laws he had established despite his status as king, and ruled with an iron fist with justification from the Gods. By making these laws public knowledge to every civilian,…

    His righteous indignation turned into ill-controlled anger, revenge, and unhealthy ambition that brought grief to David and the untold suffering of innocent people. Be wary of righteous indignation becoming something you do not intend. We grieve the Holy Spirit when we go the “way of Absalom,” and when we reject the direction and leading of the Holy Spirit (Ephesians 4:25-31). As a Church Father noted: By despising God’s words of instruction we grieve the Holy Spirt, and the Holy Spirit leaves us to our own self-will, but then God’s work in us is cut short (Ambrosiaster).…

    Beowulf David And Christ

    Great literature is enduring. Enduring literature is loved for generations because it deals with enduring themes. It deals with themes that touch our common humanity; themes that enlighten our understanding and broaden our experience. Sometimes these literary works take the form of narrative – even fictional stories. No matter the form, if it is a noble work, it will endure. We all like stories, maybe because we are all a part of the greatest story ever told. I believe it is this that makes Beowulf such an enduring classic. Even though its author is unknown, his work has been loved and celebrated since its birth in the mid-seventh or late tenth century. Beowulf endures because it deals with the most noble, enduring theme of all; salvation. Beowulf, like King David, was a Christ figure, and both, though figures of great courage who were saviors in their own right, point to the Savior of Mankind, Christ himself.…

    King Philip II of Spain was murdered, but by who? With a sum of at least 20 suspects that would have strong reasoning to kill him, who did it? He was found poisoned in bed early one morning, his murderer escaped his castle never to be found. However, upon further investigation, 10 highly interesting clues were found in a burlap sack stuffed behind a statue of the Virgin and Child. Those clues consisted of: A map from Orelius’ Typus Orbus Terrarum, keys to manacles, silver coins, potatoes, Las Casas’ Apologetic History, Elizabeth I’s speech at Tilbury, a Holy Bible in Dutch, Columbus’ Journal, Loyola’s Spiritual Exercises, and a note saying, “It’s working, my friends…”.…

    The question as to whether King John was really the worst king ever, stills seems to be a topic of much controversy amongst historians, as they have not yet come to an exact decision on which side of the argument to deem as the truth. Some people believe that King John is to be blamed for the fate that he suffered because of certain decisions he made and brought himself to his state in the society through his actions; however, those who disagree, claim that it was simply his misfortune and that the events that came about were inevitable and were supposed to happen at some point in history, which had to unfortunately be during the reign of King John. Let's look more closely into the matter to see which side of the argument should be supported……
