  • THE NATURE and POWER of SATAN Theorizing About the Nature
    CHAPTER THREE THE NATURE AND POWER OF SATAN Theorizing about the nature, origin, and cosmological status of Satan occurs among the selected writings, especially among the later ones. However, there is an obvious lack of "speculative" interest in the sense of seeking to work out a complete cosmology of evil. Concepts as to the origin, abode, and ultimate future of Satan are often very diverse, and there are only a small number of referen­ ces. An analysis and interpretation of the nature of Satan as conceiv­ ed by the early Christian tradition will be therefore necessarily less comprehensive than a discussion of his activities. There are some basic understandings as to the nature and power of Satan common to most of the selected writers, however, and they are best summarized by the New Testament phrases: Satan, the "prince of the power of the air," "ruler of demons," "ruler of the world," and "god of this age." A. SATAN: PRINCE OF THE POWER OF THE AIR 1. Origin of Satan For the most part, the New Testament writers make no theoreti­ cal assertions as to the origin of Satan. However, a number of passages by choice of words and phraseology seem to reflect the idea of Satan as a fallen angel who is chief among a class of fallen angels, an idea which appears frequently in apocalyptic literature.1 II Peter 2 :4, for example, refers to the angels that sinned and were cast into hell. Jude 6 mentions "the angels that did not keep their own position but left their proper dwelling ..

  • A Framework of Sustainable Design for the Region of Palestine
    The Pennsylvania State University The Graduate School College of Arts & Architecture A FRAMEWORK OF SUSTAINABLE DESIGN FOR THE REGION OF PALESTINE A Thesis in Architecture by Hala Marwan Haddad © 2010 Hala Marwan Haddad Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Architecture December 2010 The Thesis of Hala Marwan Haddad was reviewed and approved* by the following: Ute Poerschke Associate Professor of Architecture Thesis Advisor James Wines Professor of Architecture Madis Pihlak Associate Professor of Architecture Alexandra Staub Associate Professor of Architecture *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School. ii Abstract: Many definitions of sustainable design have emerged in the past twenty years, most of which focused on the environmental part of the design process. In recent years, especially with the emergence of sustainable design as an international trend, more attention has been directed towards the social and economic part of sustainable design for a building to be truly sustainable and able of fitting in any context, for the long run. This thesis explores into the different dimensions of sustainable design, studying what makes a building sustainable, and using that as a base to define sustainable design in the region of Palestine, a small country in the northern part of the Middle East and east of Mediterranean, to define a framework of sustainable design. The framework achieved at the end of this study uses the vernacular as a passively sustainable prototype of sustainable design, for its environmental, socio cultural and economic complexity of a building, integrated with modern active techniques, that helped define the framework and helps define the future of the vernacular as a sustainable structure in different regions of the world.

  • Three Conquests of Canaan
    ÅA Wars in the Middle East are almost an every day part of Eero Junkkaala:of Three Canaan Conquests our lives, and undeniably the history of war in this area is very long indeed. This study examines three such wars, all of which were directed against the Land of Canaan. Two campaigns were conducted by Egyptian Pharaohs and one by the Israelites. The question considered being Eero Junkkaala whether or not these wars really took place. This study gives one methodological viewpoint to answer this ques- tion. The author studies the archaeology of all the geo- Three Conquests of Canaan graphical sites mentioned in the lists of Thutmosis III and A Comparative Study of Two Egyptian Military Campaigns and Shishak and compares them with the cities mentioned in Joshua 10-12 in the Light of Recent Archaeological Evidence the Conquest stories in the Book of Joshua. Altogether 116 sites were studied, and the com- parison between the texts and the archaeological results offered a possibility of establishing whether the cities mentioned, in the sources in question, were inhabited, and, furthermore, might have been destroyed during the time of the Pharaohs and the biblical settlement pe- riod. Despite the nature of the two written sources being so very different it was possible to make a comparative study. This study gives a fresh view on the fierce discus- sion concerning the emergence of the Israelites. It also challenges both Egyptological and biblical studies to use the written texts and the archaeological material togeth- er so that they are not so separated from each other, as is often the case.

  • APPROACHES to OCCULTISM in the QUR'an and the SUNNAH
    Kelam Araştırmaları 1:1 (2003), s.21-36. APPROACHES to OCCULTISM in THE QUR'AN AND THE SUNNAH İlyas ÇELEBİ, Ph.D, Marmara Universitiy Divinity Faculty [email protected] I. Definition Occultism is a general term, used for the movements which claim that one can get some information or can display extraordinary actions through using the inner skills or establishing relationships with the supernatural beings or events. The one who is occultic involved in movements can also claim that they can reach the knowledge of the truth and upper sentimental world, not by experimental methods and rational ways but by using some unusual methods. Occultism was originated in the primitive societies which means to believe, above all, in the mythological beings, whilst they try to explain or understand the Nature and what happens in it; as a result of this, they show the false and secret reasons instead of the actual reasons. This method can also exhibit a convenient position with their ontology based on the mythology .Some occultist methods appeared and were handed down via generations by transforming these methods into more systematic and more mysterious forms, such as in the Sumerian, the Assyrian, the Babylonian and the Indian civilisations. It is noted that in the beginning of Islam, to whom Islam addressed first Arabs, had some important information of every kinds of occultism. Some scholars such Ibn al-Nadim, Ibn Haldun, Tashkoprizadah or Katip Cheleby, have listed certain occultist methods in their classifications of the Sciences. Among

  • Khirbat Burin: Rural Life During the Crusader and Mauml K Periods in the Eastern Sharon Plain
    ‘Atiqot 94, 2019 KHIRBAT BURIN: RURAL LIFE DURING THE CRUSADER AND MAUML K PERIODS IN THE EASTERN SHARON PLAIN RAZ KLETTER AND EDNA J. STERN INTRODUCTION During November 1999–March 2000, a second and third season of salvage excavations were carried out at the northern part of Khirbat Burin (map ref. 1986/6909; Fig. 1). The excavations were required since a large pipeline was planned north of the Netanya–Ṭul Karm road.1 Thus, the excavation was limited to a long, narrow strip of land, over 100 m long but only 4 m wide. It is situated c. 20 m north of the area excavated during the first season in 1998 (see Kletter and Stern 2006) and runs parallel to it (Plan 1). In total, 20 squares (mostly 4.0 × 4.5 m) were excavated. Many of the results presented here corroborate those of the first season, and therefore, types of finds which have already been discussed in detail in the first report are only summarily discussed here. The second season is especially important for understanding the stratigraphy and the chronology of Strata I–II, already worked out during the first season. Readers should bear in mind the special difficulties typical of salvage excavations. In this case, a large complex of medieval buildings (Stratum II) was exposed during four separate excavation seasons under the direction of two different archaeologists (the fourth season was carried out by Uzi ‘Ad; ‘Ad 2005; 2012; see Plan 1: Areas A, B). With each new season, former areas had already been back-filled or had changed completely by large-scale earth- moving and construction works.
