Excerpt from The Sin of Ahab: A Drama in One Act Can religious drama be a means of bringing religion and high idealism into world affairs at the present time of unrest? The Drama League of America asked this question at the close of the World War when great interest was evidenced in spiritual things, realizing the power of the dramatic instinct, the appeal of biblical truths and the wealth of dramatic material contained in the Bible. A religious drama committee was called by the league to discuss the subject in the broadest use of the term, the aim being to use drama in teaching Bible truths and plays dealing with ethical material. Investigation revealed the lack of good religious plays. To arouse interest in the subject and to secure suitable material the league held a religious drama prize competition. The result was satisfactory - valuable material was gained. Selected plays from this competition arc to appear in a Drama League Series, "The Sin of Ahab," the title of this volume being one of the series. Churches and church boards adopted the league's idea of utilizing drama in church work - or reviving drama which had its origin in the church - as the plan afforded wonderful opportunity to use the young life of the church. "The Sin of Ahab" is a biblical drama in one act. The characters who take speaking parts are Ahab king of Israel, Jezebel his wife, Jonas a boy of seventeen, Obadiah the head of Ahab's household, Naboth a native of Jezreel and Elijah the prophet. The scene is laid in Samaria. The play throughout has biblical authority except in making Jonas the son of the widow. There is a tradition that Jonas was the boy who was raised from the dead by Elijah. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

During the first half of the 20th century approximately 10,000 short plays were written in the United States. This book examines twenty one-act plays by authors such as Mary Shaw, Susan Glaspell, and Charlotte Perkins Gilman, who wrote from such diverse backgrounds as women's clubs, art theaters, or commercial theaters. This study argues that the plays share a structural organization along spatial dichotomies of theatrical space within and theatrical space without. While some writers use the underlying structure of separate spheres and organize place and space in order to promote a broader definition of «domesticity», the spatial configurations in other plays are read as appropriations, affirmations, negotiations, subversions, or transgressions of the separate spheres dichotomy. Substantial bibliographies documenting the productivity of the one-act genre supplement this study.

At the beginning of 1 & 2 Kings, Solomon's reign brought peace, prosperity, dynamic international trade and a magnificent centre of worship. By contrast, at the end, the people faced complete reversal: they and their king were in exile; Jerusalem and the temple lay in ruins. How can this story of reversal, told by the very people who suffered that defeat, be of value today, and equip us for every good work? In this rich and insightful commentary, John W. Olley guides us through The Message of 1 & 2 Kings. With deft, accessible scholarship, he shows us how the writers of Kings retell the past as preached history, and how that helps us to understand the way they speak to us today. Within the account of paths leading to short-term success but ultimate failure, there are pointers of hope, of God's continuing purposes and promises, and of the peoples’ response in the present. In rich and often surprising ways, the story told in Kings is one that continues to shape the faith and life of Christian believers today. Unpacking its meaning careful precision, Olley helps us understand that everyday life, along with the turmoil of national and global events, is the arena in which God's people are called to worship, trust and obey him. Part of the million-selling Bible Speaks Today series of commentaries, The Message of 1 & 2 Kings offers a cogent, readable exposition of the Biblical text as well as thoughtfully discussion of how it is relevant for Christians today. Used by Bible students and teachers around the world, the Bible Speaks Today commentaries are ideal for students and preachers who are looking to improve their understanding of Scripture.
