Davis, Supervisor ___________________________ Stephen B. Chapman ___________________________ Anathea Portier-Young ___________________________ Gerald O. West Abstract of a dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Theology in the Divinity School of Duke University 2017 i v Copyright by Jacob Onyumbe Wenyi 2017 i v Abstract With its description of God as wrathful and vengeful and its graphic depiction of war and violence, Nahum has often been treated as a dangerous book, both in church settings and in academic circles. This dissertation is an effort to confront violence, both in my community and in the book of Nahum. It is a contextual reading of Nahum against the background of the wars that have plagued my country, the Democratic Republic of the Congo since the early 1990s. It argues that Nahum’s description of God and its depiction of war scenes were meant to evoke in seventh-century BCE Judahite audiences the memory of war and destruction at the hands of the Assyrians.

  • Good Morning Ladies and Gentlemen. My Name Is Jacob Gregg
    Good morning Ladies and Gentlemen. My name is Jacob Gregg. Before I get started, I’d like to take a moment to thank Senator Brenner who invited me here to speak. He has been kind enough to take the time to listen, educate, and encourage me and I truly appreciate that. I’m here this morning to appeal to you to give back something that was taken from me: my senior year. I, along with 108,000 other Ohio High School seniors, were 2020 Juniors when COVID caused the nationwide quarantine. We lost spring sports, prom, academic competitions, volunteer opportunities such as Special Olympics, Our Night to Shine prom, Repair Affair, and of course in-person learning. Over the summer, things only continued to worsen. Student athletes like myself were prevented from visiting college campuses, attending camps, showcases and combines in hopes of getting the attention of a college scout. We couldn’t even get together to train with friends. Gyms were closed. Heck, I couldn’t even get a haircut! Church camps were cancelled, apprenticeship programs were discontinued. AP classes, taking the ACT, … the list goes on and on. When school began in the fall, there was some hope that things might return to normal, but we were not so lucky. I am not too proud to admit that I am dangerously close to failing my senior year of high school. At the onset of COVID, my GPA was a respectable 3.8. Now? I’m barely hanging in there with a 2.1. Have you ever tried to teach yourself Calculus? How about Anatomy? Government? What about a foreign language? I don’t recommend it.

  • Jacob Davis: His Life and Contributions
    JACOB DAVIS: HIS LIFE AND CONTRIBUTIONS * Born Jacob Youphes in Riga, Latvia, 1831. * Came to America and in 1854, changed his name to Jacob Davis. Operated a tailor shop in New York City and Augusta, Maine. * Moved to San Francisco in 1856, then moved to the gold country town of Weaverville, working as a tailor. In 1858 he left California for western Canada (likely Cariboo and Victoria, British Columbia), where he lived for nine years. * He married Annie (Parksher/Packscher) from Germany, in 1865. They had six children. * Davis returned to San Francisco from Victoria, B.C. in January of 1867. Then he moved to Virginia City, Nevada where he opened a cigar store. Three months later, however, he was working again as a tailor. * In June of 1868 he settled in the little railroad town of Reno, Nevada. He invested his money in a brewery but lost it all. By 1869 he had opened a tailoring shop on Virginia Street. He began making wagon covers and tents from an off-white cotton duck cloth which he purchased from the wholesale house of Levi Strauss & Co. beginning in 1870. * In late 1870 a woman customer came to him for a pair of “cheap” pants for her “large” husband who had a habit of going through pants rather quickly. She paid him $3.00 in advance for the white duck pants, and told Davis she wanted them made as strong as possible. * Davis had some copper rivets in his shop, which he used to attach straps to the horse blankets he made for local teamsters.

  • Jacob Boehme Online
    JACOB BOEHME THE TEUTONIC PHILOSOPHER William Perkes Swainson Transcribed by Wayne Kraus for Jacob Boehme Online CHAPTER I EARLY LIFE Search where we will through the whole range of mysticism, it is hard to find a deeper or more interior mystic than the poor, unlettered shoemaker of Goerlitz, Jacob Boehme. Unlearned, as this world understands learning, he yet penetrated to the core of things, touching depths that the profoundest philosophers and the keenest thinkers have essayed in vain to reach. Where the most subtle metaphysicians have failed in their search for truth, this poor shoemaker, through his humble childlike faith, succeeded in discovering the ground of all things. Not only was he a great mystic, but he was also a spiritual occultist. He was born at the village of Alt-Seidenberg, near Goerlitz, in Saxony, in the Year 1575. His parents were simple but respectable peasants. As a boy Boehme spent much of his time alone, tending the cattle. At an early age he developed, the visionary faculty, and was able to see in the spirit world. He went to school, learned to read and write, and, on leaving, was apprenticed to a shoemaker. One day, while his master and mistress were out, a stranger entered the shop, bought a pair of boots, for which he paid an excessive price, and departed. On reaching the street he called out, "Jacob, come hither." The lad, greatly surprised to find that the man knew his name, went outside, whereupon the stranger fixed a kind yet penetrating glance upon him, and said, "Jacob, thou art yet but little, but the time will come when thou shalt be great and become another man, and the world shall marvel at thee.

Lost, or a Guide for the Lovesick 1 Lost, or a Guide for the Lovesick Pacôme Thiellement Translation : Brian Stacy 1 In a work on Bouvard and Pécuchet, Raymond Queneau singled out two defining lines in the History of the novel: that of the Iliad, and that of the Odyssey. Every great work is either an Iliad or an Odyssey, the odysseys being far superior in number than the iliads: the Satiricon, The Divine Comedy, Pantagruel, Don Quixote and of course Ulysses are odysseys, that is to say, des récits de temps pleins. The iliades are, on the contrary, searches for lost time: facing Troy, on a deserted island or at the Guermantes'1. 2 Lost falls along both, but more importantly, it splits its narrative content into two levels: a contemplative level, that of the Brahmins, of the priests, the story of the election to become protector of the island, which is also a story of discipleship and obedience; and another level, active but true to sacred principles, that of the ksatriyas or knights, the story of "adventures" seeking the return of a loved one, Desmond's storyline.

Jacob CHRONOLOGICAL SUMMARY I. Jacob, the younger twin A. His birth was God’s answer to Isaac’s and Rebekah’s prayer concerning children (Gen. 25:21-23). 1. God told them two nations were in Rebekah’s womb. 2. One nation would be stronger than the other. 3. The older twin would serve the younger twin. B. Jacob was thus the second born of twins (Gen. 25:24-26). C. He was born with his hand grasping Esau’s heel (Gen. 25:26). II. Jacob, the devising brother A. In contrast to Esau, who was an outdoorsman and a hunter, Jacob grew up a quiet man, staying among the tents (Gen. 25:27). B. Jacob persuaded his famished brother Esau, who was returning from a hunting trip, to sell him the firstborn birthright for some bread and lentil stew (Gen.
