This second book, Settling Hearts, is a continuation of the first, Searching Hearts. It, like the first, is fiction or fiction with a purpose as fellow author Hugh Tribbey stated at the authors' reception both he and author Vaughan attended during the centennial reunion of Phillips University Alumni and Friends Association in Enid, Oklahoma, in August 1907. The main characters of the first book are, in the second, older and some are married with children of their own. Some new characters help emphasize the developing unity of all world religions. One of the purposes of the book is to encourage world religions to unite in a faith that stems from their own cultures and religious backgrounds and centers in their firm belief in Jesus as the incarnation of the Spirit of Christ that inspired the development of all world religions. One other purpose is to help stir the hearts of people not affiliated with any world religion to faith by way of the faith-unity of all religions. It is probable that many fail to believe in Christ Jesus because of the different and often opposing beliefs held by those of the various denominations of Christendom. Jesus, in John 17:20-23, stressed the need for unity among His disciples so that the world would believe that He was sent from God as the eternal Christ loved by God. Similarly there is a need to help atheists, by unity of world religions, to have faith in the one God and Father of us all and to believe that the spiritual Christ of God dwelt on earth in the human person Jesus of Nazareth. Enjoy the heart-settling that comes from reading this book. In his second book, Settling Hearts, Ewel Vaughan once again takes us on a journey through the lives of his fictional characters. This time we follow along with characters as they experience end-time events in a contemporary and real world setting. Vaughan's interpretation of the prophetic symbols and images in the book of Revelation suggest that the end times may appear very different than previously thought, and that events signaling fulfillment of prophesy might not be easily recognized in today's world. He further proposes that greed may be the causative element that set in motion the chain of events leading to the end of the Christian era. The world is not without hope though. Despite the turmoil and upheaval, hope is alive through the unity that is available through Christ. Vaughan points us in the direction of Christ as the one truth, the unifying and connecting element. He addresses the diversity of world faiths and proposes that all religions and faiths can be brought together through Christ. He suggests that God is reconciling all people to Himself through Christ, and that Christ has been active in all religions and is the inspiration for the founding of the various faith systems and their sacred writings. Vaughan explains that his theories were formed through a method of combining critical inquiry and God inspired revelation. He encourages others to do the same, to seek out answers by questioning the heart and mind to come to a personal understanding of God. I have known my father-in-law, Ewel Vaughan, for more than half my life. Through the years I've had the privilege of hearing many of his beliefs, his own revealed truths, through sermons and over the dining room table. He has always inspired me by his unwavering search for truth, his open mind and his steadfast faith in a loving and forgiving God. He helped me to see that one doesn't have to subscribe to the beliefs and views handed to us. We can discover on our own, and in connection with God's Spirit, truths that are real and that speak to us personally. I am thrilled to see Ewel Vaughan's theories in print, and to know that they may similarly inspire others. Lesley Vaughan, freelance writer, Stillwater, Oklahoma.

Analyses by the Israeli sociologist Michael Feige embraced every aspect of the State of Israel. He examined the ever-changing and complex identity of Israelis; how they remember and commemorate themselves; the long- and short-term conceptions of time of the left- and right-wing political movements; the spacial concept of the settlers; myths underlying the lives and deaths of its citizens; and the dialectical vicissitudes of the real and imagined Israel. The book contains material from Professor Feiges literary output, contextualized in an Introduction by David Ohana. Chapters delve into the meaning of Israeli signs and symbols; the semiotics of secular spaces (sites of disasters and graves of political and religious leaders); the semiotics of historical time and daily existence; forms of commemoration (of figures like David Ben-Gurion, Yitzhak Rabin, airforce pilots, a female settler and a peace activist). Feige scrutinized communities formed around political cells, the processes of fragmentation and globalization in Israel, the traumas and scars from the Yom Kippur War, the evacuation of settlements, and the killing of Yitzhak Rabin. Feiges scrutiny illuminated Israeli society in myriad ways. He was a sociologist among historians and a historian among sociologists, and internationally acknowledged as having an extraordinary ability to convey sociological meaning and structure to Israels radical political culture as expressed in its social actions and underlying mythology. Semiotics of Israeli Space and Time is not only an essential sociological toolbox for students and an historical masterpiece for the wider Israeli public to better understand the society to which they belong, but a commemorative volume to honour his life and work. Michael was murdered on 8 June 2016 when two Palestinian gunmen opened fire in the Sarona Market in Tel Aviv.

"An account of the design of West Bank settlements from 1967, when housing settlements were still an abstract idea, to the present, when they have become hotly contested. It addresses the complicated relationship between politics and the built environment and questions assumptions about politics and the built environment. The author looks closely at five settlements-Hebron, Ofra, Nofim, Beitar Illit, and Pnei Kedem-to analyze the settlement movement, the country Israel has become since 1967, and, more broadly, "the production of space in sites of political conflict." For Shoked, the role of contingency is key: government policy shaped the design of settlements, but so too did other actors. As Shoked writes, "the analytic categories of expert and user, above and below, frequently dissolve in the unfolding process of design, construction, and inhabitation.""--

Two decades ago, the idea that a "radical right" could capture and drive Israeli politics seemed highly improbable. While it was a boisterous faction and received heavy media coverage, it constituted a fringe element. Yet by 2009, Israel's radical right had not only entrenched itself in mainstream Israeli politics, it was dictating policy in a wide range of areas. The government has essentially caved to the settlers on the West Bank, and restrictions on non-Jews in Israel have increased in the past few years. Members of the radical right have assumed prominent positions in Israel's elite security forces. The possibility of a two state solution seems more remote than ever, and the emergence of ethnonationalist politician Avigdor Lieberman suggests that its power is increasing. Quite simply, if we want to understand the seemingly intractable situation in Israel today, we need a comprehensive account of the radical right. In The Triumph of Israel's Radical Right, acclaimed scholar Ami Pedahzur provides an invaluable and authoritative analysis of its ascendance to the heights of Israeli politics. After analyzing what, exactly, they believe in, he explains how mainstream Israeli policies like "the right of return" have served as unexpected foundations for their nativism and authoritarian tendencies. He then traces the right's steady rise, from the first intifada to the "Greater Israel" movement that is so prominent today. Throughout, he focuses on the radical right's institutional networks and how the movement has been able to expand its constituency. His closing chapter is grim yet realistic: he contends that a two state solution is no longer viable and that the vision of the radical rabbi Meir Kahane, who was a fringe figure while alive, has triumphed.

2014 Lannan Foundation Cultural Freedom Notable Book Award In Goliath, New York Times bestselling author Max Blumenthal takes us on a journey through the badlands and high roads of Israel-Palestine, painting a startling portrait of Israeli society under the siege of increasingly authoritarian politics as the occupation of the Palestinians deepens. Beginning with the national elections carried out during Israel's war on Gaza in 2008-09, which brought into power the country's most right-wing government to date, Blumenthal tells the story of Israel in the wake of the collapse of the Oslo peace process. As Blumenthal reveals, Israel has become a country where right-wing leaders like Avigdor Lieberman and Bibi Netanyahu are sacrificing democracy on the altar of their power politics; where the loyal opposition largely and passively stands aside and watches the organized assault on civil liberties; where state-funded Orthodox rabbis publish books that provide instructions on how and when to kill Gentiles; where half of Jewish youth declare their refusal to sit in a classroom with an Arab; and where mob violence targets Palestinians and African asylum seekers scapegoated by leading government officials as "demographic threats." Immersing himself like few other journalists inside the world of hardline political leaders and movements, Blumenthal interviews the demagogues and divas in their homes, in the Knesset, and in the watering holes where their young acolytes hang out, and speaks with those political leaders behind the organized assault on civil liberties. As his journey deepens, he painstakingly reports on the occupied Palestinians challenging schemes of demographic separation through unarmed protest. He talks at length to the leaders and youth of Palestinian society inside Israel now targeted by security service dragnets and legislation suppressing their speech, and provides in-depth reporting on the small band of Jewish Israeli dissidents who have shaken off a conformist mindset that permeates the media, schools, and the military. Through his far-ranging travels, Blumenthal illuminates the present by uncovering the ghosts of the past -- the histories of Palestinian neighborhoods and villages now gone and forgotten; how that history has set the stage for the current crisis of Israeli society; and how the Holocaust has been turned into justification for occupation. A brave and unflinching account of the real facts on the ground, Goliath is an unprecedented and compelling work of journalism.

The Six Day War in 1967 profoundly influenced how an increasing number of religious Zionists saw Israeli victory as the manifestation of God's desire to redeem God's people. Thousands of religious Israelis joined the Gush Emunim movement in 1974 to create settlements in territories occupied in the war. However, over time, the Israeli government decided to return territory to Palestinian or Arab control. This was perceived among religious Zionist circles as a violation of God's order. The peak of this process came with the Disengagement Plan in 2005, in which Israel demolished all the settlements in the Gaza Strip and four settlements in the West Bank. This process raised difficult theological questions among religious Zionists. This book explores the internal mechanism applied by a group of religious Zionist rabbis in response to their profound disillusionment with the state, reflected in an increase in religious radicalization due to the need to cope with the feelings of religious and messianic failure.
