Strong's Exhaustive Concordance Dictionaries of Hebrew and Greek Words taken from Strong's Exhaustive Concordance By James Strong, S.T.D., LL.D. 1890 BIBLESNET.COM & QUESTIONS GOD.COM Dictionaries of Hebrew and Greek Words taken from Strong's Exhaustive Concordance by James Strong, S.T.D., LL.D. 1890 Public Domain -- Copy Freely For a hundred years Strong's Dictionaries have been popular with Bible students. By assigning numbers to each unique word in the Old and New Testaments and listing each word with its number, Strong produced a standard, still used today, for referencing definitions.

Available online at http://classics.mit.edu//Homer/iliad.html The Iliad By Homer Translated by Samuel Butler ---------------------------------------------------------------------- BOOK I Sing, O goddess, the anger of Achilles son of Peleus, that brought countless ills upon the Achaeans. Many a brave soul did it send hurrying down to Hades, and many a hero did it yield a prey to dogs and vultures, for so were the counsels of Jove fulfilled from the day on which the son of Atreus, king of men, and great Achilles, first fell out with one another. And which of the gods was it that set them on to quarrel? It was the son of Jove and Leto; for he was angry with the king and sent a pestilence upon the host to plague the people, because the son of Atreus had dishonoured Chryses his priest. Now Chryses had come to the ships of the Achaeans to free his daughter, and had brought with him a great ransom: moreover he bore in his hand the sceptre of Apollo wreathed with a suppliant's wreath and he besought the Achaeans, but most of all the two sons of Atreus, who were their chiefs. "Sons of Atreus," he cried, "and all other Achaeans, may the gods who dwell in Olympus grant you to sack the city of Priam, and to reach your homes in safety; but free my daughter, and accept a ransom for her, in reverence to Apollo, son of Jove." On this the rest of the Achaeans with one voice were for respecting the priest and taking the ransom that he offered; but not so Agamemnon, who spoke fiercely to him and sent him roughly away.

  • Three Desert Ammas—Theodora, Sarah, and Syncletica
    COURAGEOUS WOMEN: THREE DESERT AMMAS-THEODORA, SARAH, AND SYNCLETICA A New Translation from the Greek Alphabetical Apophthegmata Patrum, with Introduction, Notes, and Comments' Tim Vivian INTRODUCTION Something like 90% of classical Greek and Roman literature is lost to us. This realization becomes acute, even heartbreaking, when we think of how very little of the little we have is by women. An exception that proves the rule is Plutarch’s “Sayings of Trojan Women,” in the Moralia.2 A unique manuscript of Catullus’ poems survived in a wine jar discovered in a monastery. How many of us would delight—exult—to have the complete poems of Sappho? This attrition continues into early Christianity: Paul names quite a few women in ministry; we have authentic writings by none of them.1 In the New Testament we also have T permit no woman to teach or to have authority over a man; she is to keep silent.”4 In the decade before or after the turn of the fourth century, Bishop Theophilus of Alexandria ups the ante, even when he, seemingly, has all the chips: Tim Vivian is a retired Episcopal priest and emeritus professor of Religious Studies at California State University, Bakersfield. He is an expert on Coptic monasticism and has published widely on that subject in this and other journals. 1 A different version of this article will appear as part of a 2-volume translation of the Alphabetical Apophthegmata Patrum (The Sayings of the Desert Fathers), with notes and comments, forthcoming from Cistercian Publications. I wish to thank Kathleen Norris for reading a draft of this article, Joseph Trigg for things Origen, and Janet Gonzales and Chris Livingston at the CSU Bakersfield Walter Stiern Library for help with research materials.

    Photoperiodic properties of circadian rhythm in rat by Liang Samantha Zhang A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Neuroscience) in The University of Michigan 2011 Doctoral Committee: Associate Professor Jimo Borjigin, Chair Professor Theresa M. Lee Professor William Michael King Associate Professor Daniel Barclay Forger Assistant Professor Jiandie Lin © Liang Samantha Zhang 2011 To my loving grandparents, YaoXiang Zhang and AnNa Yu ii Acknowledgements To all who have played a role in my life these past four years, I give my thanks. First of all, I give my gratitude to the members of Borjigin Lab. To my mentor Dr. Jimo Borjigin whose intelligence and accessibility has carried me through in this journey within the circadian field. To Dr. Tiecheng Liu, who taught me all the technical knowledge necessary to perform the work presented in this dissertation, and whose surgical skills are second to none. To all the undergrads I have trained over the years, namely Abeer, Natalie, Christof, Tara, and others, whose combined hundreds if not thousands of hours in manually analyzing melatonin data have been an indispensible asset to myself and the lab. To Michelle and Ricky for taking care of all the animals over the years, which has made life much easier for the rest of us. To Alexandra, who was willing to listen and share her experiences, and to Sean, who has been a good friend both in and out of the lab. I would also like to thank my committee members for their help and support over the years.

  • Expanding the Letter to the Hebrews from Within
    Expanding the Letter to the Hebrews from Within Introduction This document came into existence as the result of three shorter essays written not long before it, The First City, Mystery People and On the Idea of Returning. All deal with different topics yet are related even though I had no intent to make them as such. Before moving into Hebrews itself, let’s look at the two points of connection among them all because they tie in with each other in some way or other. In a way, the first is the most important insofar as it represents a time when I began to develop an approach to scripture different from the one to which I had been accustomed. In that article I recounted events starting from when Adam and Eve had been banished from the Garden of Eden through the founding of the first city and then on to the flood. Cain, who had murdered his brother Abel, became a wander and eventually settled down to found the world’s first city which he named Enoch, that is, after his son. From then on, human civilization began a downward spiral which forced the Lord to destroy every living thing on earth in order to renew creation. All these events are mythic in that they point to more profound realities than any historical ones. The second article examines references to healing in the Gospel of St. Matthew with special attention given to the various scenarios of what could have happened to those whom Jesus had cured. For the most part these people remain anonymous which conveys a certain sense of mystery.

  • Myers, N. (1976). the Leopard Panthera Pardus in Africa
    Myers, N. (1976). The leopard Panthera pardus in Africa. Morges: IUCN. Keywords: 1Afr/Africa/IUCN/leopard/Panthera pardus/status/survey/trade Abstract: The survey was instituted to assess the status of the leopard in Africa south of the Sahara (hereafter referred to as sub-Saharan Africa). The principal intention was to determine the leopard's distribution, and to ascertain whether its numbers were being unduly depleted by such factors as the fur trade and modification of Wildlands. Special emphasis was to be directed at trends in land use which may affect the leopard, in order to determine dynamic aspects of its status. Arising out of these investigations, guidelines were to be formulated for the more effective conservation of the species. Since there is no evidence of significant numbers of leopards in northern Africa, the survey was restricted to sub-Saharan Africa. Although every country of this region had to be considered, detailed investigations were appropriate only in those areas which seemed important to the leopard's continental status. Sub-Saharan Africa now comprises well over 40 countries. With the limitations of time and funds available, visits could be arranged to no more than a selection of countries. The aim was to make an on-the-ground assessment of at least one country in each of the major biomes, viz. Sahel, Sudano-Guinean woodland, rainforest and miombo woodland, in addition to the basic study of East African savannah grasslands discussed in the next section. Special emphasis was directed at the countries of southern Africa, to ascertain what features of agricultural development have contributed to the decline of the leopard in that region and whether these are likely to be replicated elsewhere.
