Analysis of the scroll fragments of the Qumran Aramaic scrolls has been plentiful to date. Their shared characteristics of being written in Aramaic, the common language of the region, not focused on the Qumran Community, and dating from the 3rd century BCE to the 1st century CE have enabled the creation of a shared identity, distinguishing them from other fragments found in the same place at the same time. This classification, however, could yet be too simplistic as here, for the first time, John Starr applies sophisticated statistical analyses to newly available electronic versions of these fragments. In so doing, Starr presents a potential new classification which comprises six different text types which bear distinctive textual features, and thus is able to narrow down the classification both temporally and geographically.Starr's re-visited classification presents fresh insights into the Aramaic texts at Qumran, with important implications for our understanding of the many strands that made up Judaism in the period leading to the writing of the New Testament.

The late 1930s were a unique time for specialized pulp magazine titles, and this is one of the oddest. Lasting for only one issue, Civil War Stories appeared on the stands to build upon the success of Gone With the Wind. This replica edition is a straight copy of the original pulp, and at an affordable price.

Initially delighted by God, many Christians begin to seek a deeper relationship with him, only to be disappointed when it doesn’t seem to deliver what they have expected. If we are truthful, we might admit that God’s guidance can often seem more like misguidance, and friendship with God not nearly as straightforward as fi rst appeared.
In The Most Compelling Adventure John Starr takes us through the journey of disappointment many biblical characters have travelled long before us into a deep place of friendship with God where we begin to understand and truly appreciate his ways. God’s unchanging dream is to elevate us to an eternity bathed in his majestic and irresistible presence. On the way we will discover that the dark night of the soul, the wilderness school, and the way of hiddenness, are not just metaphors but necessary spiritual realities which nevertheless have the power to bring us security and freedom.
The Most Compelling Adventure is the outcome of one man’s journey spending decades pursuing the most valuable thing—friendship with God.
