Ringkasan

These books describe the rise and development of kingship in Israel. Samuel is a pivotal figure. He bridges the gap between the period of the Judges and the monarchy, and guides Israel’s transition to kingship. A Deuteronomistic editor presents both positive and negative traditions about the monarchy, portraying it both as evidence of Israel’s rejection of the Lord as their sovereign and as part of God’s plan to deliver the people. Samuel’s misgivings about abuse of royal power foreshadow the failures and misdeeds of Saul and David and the failures of subsequent Israelite kings. Although the events described in 1 and 2 Samuel move from the last of the judges to the decline of David’s reign and the beginning of a legendary “Golden Age” under Solomon’s rule, this material does not present either a continuous history or a systematic account of this period. The author/editor developed a narrative timeline around freely composed speeches, delivered by prophets like Samuel and Nathan who endorse Deuteronomistic perspectives regarding the establishment of the monarchy, the relationship between worship and obedience, and the divine covenant established with the house of David. These books include independent blocks. Saul’s rise to power, David’s ascendancy over Saul, the Succession Narrative, which the editor shaped into three narrative cycles, the last two marked by transitional passages and Each section focuses on a major figure in the development of the monarchy: Samuel, the reluctant king maker; Saul, the king whom the Lord rejects; David, the king after the Lord’s own heart. A common theme unites these narratives: Israel’s God acts justly, prospering those who remain faithful and destroying those who reject his ways. Along with the rest of the Deuteronomistic History, the Books of Samuel become an object lesson for biblical Israel as it tries to re-establish its religious identity after the destruction of Jerusalem and the loss of its homeland (587/586 B.C.).

The prophesy Hatred is coming Darkness will devour the one born of two arch’s. A fire at the heart Together as was fate Yet alone they will wake Two choices they will make The final battle they will create The prophecy part two Light and dark will unite The second fire will ignite The prince of darkness will arise Using hells soul as his vice Hell on earth will emerge Only when two fires join as one Can the darkness be undone. Dantalis is an angel with a dark secret, an assassin sent from heaven to kill Reece valour before the events of the prophecy can come to pass. However what he finds Is far from and easy mission. Can Reece save herself from the wrath of heaven or will Dantalis complete his mission and kill the only one that can save him from the darkness inside him. "Move Raziel." She tried to push past me both our fires still burning. "No Phoenix you are not ready." Soneillon laughed as he stalked us like prey. "Phoenix? Using pet names already are we? Well too bad since I've come to retrieve what is mine." "She was never yours Soneillon!" I yelled I will not let him hurt her again no matter what. "I swear to god Raziel I will kill you both if you don't move!" "There's that fire I love so much." I scowled at him. "A demon is not capable of love." "True but Dantalis is, you broke his poor little heart Reece. Or is it Phoenix now? See Dantalis she never loved you already she wears his mark in place of your own." Phoenix bared her fangs. "It was never his mark you forced on me and it wasn't his mark I burned away. It was yours." "You will be mine whether you want it or not and this pretty boy can not stop me." "Watch me!" I turned to Phoenix. "Please put aside what your feelings towards me and listen when I say you are not ready for this fight and I will not stand by a watch you die. Please if there is any love left in your heart for me fly. Fly as fast as you can I will hold him as long as it takes." Something in her eyes softened. "No! Raziel I will not leave you here!" "You must! Now go fly to your father he will protect you." "Oh how sweet willing to sacrifice yourself to save her." Soneillon stepped closer. "Go Phoenix now!" She took one last look at Soneillon then kissed me with all the passion I thought was lost between us. "Come back to me." I pushed her away just as Soneillon barrelled into my side. Our hands were forced apart as she took to the skies. Soneillon turned. "No! You will not escape me again!" He made to fly after her but I grabbed his wing spinning him around forcing him to the ground. "Now you deal with me demon!" He kicked me in the stomach as he used his wings to get back on his feet sword in hand knees bent as he prepared to fight. "She will not get far." "I think you will find me harder to defeat then your average Angel Soneillon. You are not yet strong enough to take on an archangel." "That's what you think, your love for her has made you weak just as it did Dantalis." "Dantalis is a fool he should have found a way to be rid of you years ago." "True if he had he probably would have succeeded but alas he did not so here we stand." I circled him blades in hand watching for his tell. Everyone had one whether it was a twitch in the hand or I step in the foot it didn't matter I always found it. He moved with the grace of a feline precise cunning. Every move calculated. "You think you can work me out?" He laughed. "I just wanna ask one question before we start." "Stop stalling Soneillon and lets get this over with." "Why rush are you that eager to die?" What was he playing at I decided to see where he was going since it played into me giving Phoenix more time anyway. "Ask your question." He smiled. "How did she ride?"

After Getting Abandoned, I Choose to Become the General’s Wife

In the hospital, Fang Ya lay on the cold bed. As she did not have the money for surgery, she could only watch as her life slowly faded away. On her deathbed, looking back on her life, she relived all of her regrets. What she regretted the most was that she had chosen to leave her marriage with nothing and refused all the assets given to her by her nouveau riche ex-husband. Darkness enveloped her. When she woke again, she found herself reborn. She was reborn in the year when her nouveau riche ex-husband abandoned her and making ends meet with their daughter. She could not believe it. She had once prayed to God, and God seemed to have answered her prayers—He gave her a second chance! This time, she did not reject the property distribution from her nouveau riche ex-husband. She took the nine-digit sum of money as well as a set of courtyard houses in the capital city. In this life, she would give her daughter a luxurious life. They would no longer be homeless and destitute. She would no longer have to give up her life because she had no money. Not long after the divorce, she met He Feng coincidentally.
