The Libri GmbH The Oil and the Wine Hardcover

A DEEP DIVE INTO THE OIL AND THE WINE OF SCRIPTURETwo substances run through the whole Word of God. One anointed prophets, priests, and kings, and burns still in the lamps of His church. The other gladdened the feasts of Israel, was poured at the altar of the LORD - and has mocked, ruined, and buried men in every generation since Noah planted a vineyard.This book weighs the whole record: the anointing oil of Exodus and the unction that abideth; every Hebrew and Greek word the Scriptures give the cup; the presses, cellars, and jars the ancient ground has yielded; and the full history of how the reading changed - names, dates, and documents. It softens nothing: not the feast God commanded, not the wreckage the mocker leaves, and not the high and holy ground of those who stand farthest away.Read it with your Bible open. It asks nothing else.
