From Babel to Babylon explores the literary and historical character of biblical texts in the Torah, Prophecy, and Writings. It considers questions of composition and the writing of history. The book situates biblical texts in their immediate and distant context. It reflects upon their intertextuality and identifies their literary sources. Key events and figures are discussed in light of the politics of the age. Gender issues are explored, with attention to the different social roles of men and women and the character of the interaction. Theology is another important topic, and the character of God keeps changing to reflect the development of historical and prophetic traditions. The books ends with biblical wisdom, with the specific instruction to rely on the experience of the sage, whose superior understanding is greater than our own. This exhortation to listen to the text directs us back to the introduction, where readers are asked to pay attention to the principles the text sets up for its own interpretation.

ÒIn addition to the discussion of the cuneiform inscriptions in these lectures, which bear more particularly upon the Old Testament, several chapters have been included on life in ancient Babylonia. Besides facts published by others, these chapters include a presentation of certain discussions of general interest which I have published in a more technical form in the series: 'The Babylonian Expedition of the University of Pennsylvania.' These chapters, however, also contain much material that appears for the first time. -- from the Preface

Although cinema was invented in the mid-1890s, it was a decade more before the concept of a “film spectator” emerged. As the cinema began to separate itself from the commercial entertainments in whose context films initially had been shown—vaudeville, dime museums, fairgrounds—a particular concept of its spectator was developed on the level of film style, as a means of predicting the reception of films on a mass scale. In Babel and Babylon, Miriam Hansen offers an original perspective on American film by tying the emergence of spectatorship to the historical transformation of the public sphere. Hansen builds a critical framework for understanding the cultural formation of spectatorship, drawing on the Frankfurt School’s debates on mass culture and the public sphere. Focusing on exemplary moments in the American silent era, she explains how the concept of the spectator evolved as a crucial part of the classical Hollywood paradigm—as one of the new industry’s strategies to integrate ethnically, socially, and sexually differentiated audiences into a modern culture of consumption. In this process, Hansen argues, the cinema might also have provided the conditions of an alternative public sphere for particular social groups, such as recent immigrants and women, by furnishing an intersubjective context in which they could recognize fragments of their own experience. After tracing the emergence of spectatorship as an institution, Hansen pursues the question of reception through detailed readings of a single film, D. W. Griffith’s Intolerance (1916), and of the cult surrounding a single star, Rudolph Valentino. In each case the classical construction of spectatorship is complicated by factors of gender and sexuality, crystallizing around the fear and desire of the female consumer. Babel and Babylon recasts the debate on early American cinema—and by implication on American film as a whole. It is a model study in the field of cinema studies, mediating the concerns of recent film theory with those of recent film history.

The Tower of Babel: The Cultural History of Our Ancestors reveals our shared ancestry as never before! Many are familiar with the Biblical account of Babel, but after the dispersal, there was a void beyond Biblical history until empires like Rome and Greece arose. Now, discover the truth of these people groups and their civilizations that spread across the earth and trace their roots back to Babel as well as to the sons and grandsons of Noah. Many of today's scholars write off what occurred at the Tower of Babel as mythology and deny that it was a historical event. Beginning with the Biblical accounts, author Bodie Hodge researched ancient texts, critical clues, and rare historic records to help solve the mystery of what became of the failed builders of Babel. For the purpose of defending the Bible, Hodge presents these and other vital historical facts surrounding this much-debated event. Teens and older can use this layman's reference for Biblical classes, ancient history, apologetics training, and to realize their own cultural connection to the Bible.

Peter Thornton doesn't believe in God. Or rather, he doesn't believe in one God. "All paths are valid," he teaches his university students. One evening he ventures to the archaeology museum and touches an artifact recently discovered from ancient Babylon.At the touch he is transported three thousand years back in time to Old Testament Babylon. Somehow he knows the language-and the people know him as Rim-Sin, sorcerer and high priest to the gods of Babylon. The moment he arrives he is accused of murder-a murder Rim-Sin committed-and he must run for his life.Against the backdrop of Nebuchadnezzar's court at its zenith, he and rival sorcerers vie with Beltshazzar, the Jewish upstart, for the king's favor. As Peter scrambles to get back to the twenty-first century he encounters a lovely young woman who has some disturbingly powerful arguments about the God of the Bible.Peter won't get home until he has fallen from his pride. Fallen from his polytheism. Fallen from Babel.

"And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON the great, the mother of harlots and abominations of the earth" (Rev. 17:5). From Genesis to Revelation, the name of Babylon seems to come up, again and again, throughout the Holy Scriptures. In these volumes, we'll begin to discover just what Mystery Babylon was, how it survived, and into what various thought-forms it had morphed, throughout the centuries. Beyond mere survival, these ancient Babylonian systems were able to flourish over the ages... manipulating a lot of what we see and hear, even today. The theme of "The Rise of Mystery Babylon" series is two-fold. The author spent years researching a vast amount of complementary literary texts, ancient to modern, which allow us a better way to look at this all, and understand what we really may have been missing. These volumes also provide enough information to allow for the reinterpretation of early stories in Genesis, in ways not usually thought of anymore, or in ways that were even suppressed. Why? Because the movement of Mystery Babylon thrives through a continued misinterpretation of these early Genesis accounts. Understanding the reinterpretations contained herein provides a way to expose what Mystery Babylon is really all about, and where it may have really originated. This is not your typical book of biblical prophecy, with attempts to interpret human future via the Book of Revelation. True, there is some, but there is so much more needed to understand it all. The typical interpretations of early Genesis, today, ask the reader to swallow a number of seemingly-questionable story elements, such as: was the Serpent merely a talking snake? Were Adam and Eve truly alone in the Garden of Eden? Did Noah's Flood spread across the entire earth? Were there truly fallen angels mating with mortal women, producing giant, malevolent offspring, or were these merely different groups of people, coming together in unsavory ways? Beyond providing answers to the typical "where did Cain get his wife" question, the book examines much of the above, also delving into the biblical origins of a majority of the mythological gods of old, the modern-day ramifications of the Fall, the reasons Cain was such an influential character in the ancient world, the untold reason for the antediluvian flood, and so much more. All of this continues to help expose the darkened underbelly of Mystery Babylon, and helps us discover how it, once again, is trying to bring back the same depravities into the world it once had. There really may be a huge "parallel of existences," here: the times of Noah's Flood compared to the times of today. Jesus, after all, was the one who said: "as the days of Noe (Noah) were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be" (Mat. 24:37). Could one side of this parallel be the times we see now, in the present? These volumes offer their ideas in simple language, with an easy-to-follow format. This second volume - The Tower of Babel (Part 1) - provides us an even greater look into the background of early characters in Genesis: Adam, Eve, Cain, even Noah, and why their stories were so fundamental in helping us understand how life was lived, all the way up to today. We also delve into the deep, dark history of those responsible for building the infamous Tower of Babel, and discover how their tower helped launch Babylon into the major influencing force of our ancient world... and beyond.
