Young Rachel bat Samuel’s life has always been filled with peace, coexistence, and stability in her hometown of Binah, a town tucked away in the Black Hills of South Dakota in the shadow of Mount Abaddon. The mountain is surrounded by legends of the demon Abaddon who destroyed the area, Hebrew refugees from before the days of Moses, and a history that has been kept silent by the Europeans who have settled there.

The Bible delivers to us an extremely spiritual and divine environment. On the other while, poems are another way of expression with the humdinger of rhythmic ingenuity. This book aims to be a mix of both - carrying to you a cluster of astounding verses on the scenes, stories and values which the Holy Writ brings to us. Read the intriguing collection to enter the tunes of the Bible in the beautiful rhythm of poems.

The title explains itself, honestly. I take submissions and questions!

He was born a human and put in jinn world.

Erik has a life beyond and outside his connection with Charles - with Edie, with Raven, even with Az. With the (closeted) 1960s gay community, with his Jewish faith and community, with the wider world beyond that. This story is complementary to 'Just A Boy' and together they constitute the 'A Nice Jewish Boy' series. Series title is 'lightly re-worded' from the Philip Roth quote. Ugh, Philip Roth. An unedited unfiltered journal vomit doth not a novel make. Good quote though.

For centuries upon centuries, Jewish culture was not just about religion, but also about the Hebrew-Jewish people. This extract from the ebook "I am a Hebrew" exposes the reader to the less familiar part of Judaism - the tribal part. It contains translations and explanations of ancient Hebrew prayers and rituals that emphasize the survival of the Jewish people and their desire to return to their ancestral land.

Holy people sharing light to save lost souls in a fallen world. ~~~ ~~~ ~~~ ~~~ ~~~ ~~~ ~~~ It's the bible how it should be written! New chapters every week!

Learn about a ton of different religions and belief systems!! This is mainly for me but I want to share it with others also to have their own spiritual journey!! (Hate all you want on different pages, but they will be ignored and I suggest you take a look into your own religion and into yourself. I wish you luck at seeing people and just people and not their beliefs. I wish you luck!!)

In the ancient, mystical city of Havdalah, the young prince, Baheer, had reached his coming of age.  After years of training and practice, Baheer would sing from the scrolls of the holy Torah on his bar mitzvah. Destiny, however, had greater plans for Baheer than that of any ordinary prince.  On this special day, the angel Mimouna visited the grand synagogue and blessed the child, ensuring that he would grow to become a glorious king with the protection of heaven surrounding him. Growing to manhood, Baheer rose to become the ruler of Havdalah, with fate unfolding just as the angel intended.  Though, not everyone in the land held King Baheer in esteem. The evil witch Soofa was an enemy of Havdalah. She harboured an especially deep, burning hatred towards the miraculous king and his glorious reign. During the festivities for the holiday of Purim, Soofa infiltrates the palace and, defying the angelic blessing, inflicts a curse over Baheer. The curse takes the form of a dark cloud over his head.  The cloud's influence throws the king into a dire depression, feeding off of his negative feelings.  The cloud then grows to a size that eclipses the sun and swallows the sky, leaving Havdalah in an endless night.  To save his city, his family, and his soul from shadows and sadness, King Baheer must journey into the harsh and perilous desert to find the only one who can lift the witch's spell:  Mimouna.  Otherwise, all will be forever lost in darkness.

Please note that this, like all my works, isn't meant to be taken seriously. And I apologize if this offends any member of an Abrahamic faith. That's never my intention. I just want to do my own thing. This experiment of mine is majorly based on the Biblical narrative with some alterations. Judaism, Christianity, and Islam are a major influence, as well as lesser known Abrahamic faiths like Samaritanism, Druzism, Mandaeism, Rastafari, Baháʼí, Gnosticism (a collection of religious ideas and systems), etc. This is basically my own version of what's going on and shown in Abrahamic faiths, along with aspects of other cultures and beliefs, folklore, and some urban legends. And even beings, and other stuff of legend, people wouldn't expect Him to create and allow to exist. As well as events that nobody expected to actually happen and some people would exist.
