A Song for the Sanctuary: Experiencing God’s Presence in Shadow and Reality
Richard M. Davidson
This book is all about the sanctuary in the Bible. The reader is invited on a journey through sacred space into the very throne-room of the universe—the dwelling-place of the Almighty, the heavenly sanctuary—and into the earthly sanctuaries, built as copies of the heavenly original. In his quintessential “Song for the Sanctuary,” Psalm 27, David reveals how the sanctuary message is the encapsulation of what has been widely recognized as the “triple star of value” in human experience—beauty, truth, and goodness. Psalm 27 becomes the organizing guide for the journey of this book. This volume explores the “Bethel (House of God) of Beauty” in the typology of Leviticus and Hebrews; the “Palace of Praise” in the sanctuary worship of the Psalms; the “Temple of Truth” in the prophecies of Daniel and Revelation; the “Great House of Goodness” in the Christ-centered good news of salvation and judgment; and the “Cathedral of communion” as the ultimate meaning of the sanctuary. Experience God’s personal and perpetual presence in the sanctuary! Encounter God the Father and the Holy Spirit, and meet Jesus your Redeemer, Mediator, and King.

‘We aim at nothing less than the whole world’: The Seventh-day Adventist Church’s Missionary Enterprise and the General Conference Secretariat, 1863–2019
Ashlee L. Chism, David Trim, and Michael F. Younker
The subject of this book is how the Seventh-day Adventist Church organized for missionary purposes, in order to carry the gospel to the world, and the structures the denomination put in place to be able to send help to foreign fields. The zeal of pioneer Adventist missionaries and those who came after them is part of the story related in this short book. Yet, it tells not the personal stories of outstanding missionaries, but rather the story of the Seventh-day Adventist Church’s formal efforts to organize global missions; the story told here, then, is the collective, shared, Adventist story.
Accordingly, the present goal is more modest than a comprehensive history of the global mission enterprise. It is a study of how the Adventist Church, corporately and collectively, organized itself to manage a global missionary enterprise—and did so with considerable success—before, in the last half century, the very organizational structures set up for that purpose gradually came to focus on other matters. Alongside that shift, not coincidentally the number of missionaries deployed internationally and cross-culturally went into a decades-long decline; recent signs suggest that trend has been arrested, but has it been reversed, or will the 2010s prove to be merely a blip? The future of the Seventh-day Adventist global mission enterprise awaits the decisions of today's and tomorrow's Adventist leaders and members. -

In These Last Days: The Message of Hebrews
Felix Cortez
Like many believers today, the original recipients of the letter known as Hebrews were spiritually exhausted; fatigue and malaise had taken hold and they had started to drift away from God. Perhaps we, too, need a fresh view of the Son of God, the powerful Ruler and Intercessor who sits at the right hand of God? Like a precious gem, the New Testament book of Hebrews is rare, enigmatic, and exceptional. If you’re ready to see a clearer and deeper vision of Jesus, turn off the bad news and dive into a study of this epic letter for the last days.

Fuga De Babilonia: Uma História de Salvação nas Ruas de Bagdá
S. Joseph Kidder
odos falavam comigo ao mesmo tempo.
- Como você pode fazer isso? - meu pai gritou.
- Sim, você é louco! - um dos meus tios gritou.
- Você está envergonhando nossa família - esbravejou minha mãe.
Havia pessoas gritando comigo de todas as direções enquanto meus pais e parentes tentavam me convencer a abandonar minha nova fé.
- Como você pode querer ser adventista do sétimo dia? Essa religião é uma seita.
- É uma religião judia!
- Onde você está com a cabeça?
Eu fiquei parado, confuso e sob toda aquela grande tensão. Finalmente, quando meu pai pensou que não estava chegando a lugar nenhum comigo e que eu não mudaria de ideia, ele tirou os sapatos, jogou-os em mim e cuspiu em mim. Vendo isso, meu primo Basher - de quem eu era muito próximo - sentiu que era seu dever me colocar no eixo. Então, ele e um dos meus irmãos me agarraram pelos braços, me levantaram e começaram a me bater. Enquanto eles me batiam, me empurravam em todas as direções.
Assim começou sua longa jornada da Babilônia de sua vida secular no Iraque para o incrível amor de Deus. Quando ele aceitou os planos divinos para sua vida, não sabia das muitas lutas e sacrifícios que o aguardavam, mas a oração, a fé nas Escrituras e o apoio de sua nova família da igreja o levariam a uma vida de mistério e serviço que continua até hoje. -

Deuteronomy: The Book of Love
Jiří Moskala
The book of Deuteronomy belongs with the most significant literature in the Hebrew Scriptures because it systematically shapes and articulates the faith of God’s people in a living God. It is a literary masterpiece, a jewel, and the Magna Carta of Israel’s teaching. This well-organized manual of faith is the religious constitution for God’s people, climaxing the Pentateuch and crowning the Torah with a comprehensive overview of the divine law of God.
In Deuteronomy: The Book of Love by Dr. Jirí Moskala, you will- learn to recognize streams of thinking through history,
- see the Lord as humanity’s personal God,
- examine the literary form of a covenant,
- explore the relationship between fear and love, and
- delve into the bond between the Sabbath and social justice and so much more.
Through this beautiful book of love, discover God’s passion for His people, and learn how to love, admire, obey, worship, serve, fear, and follow the Lord out of gratitude for who He is, what He has done, is doing, and will do.

Exploring the Composition of the Pentateuch (Bulletin for Biblical Research Supplement Book 27)
Leslie Scott Baker Jr, Kenneth Bergland, Felipe Alves Masotti, and A. Rahel Wells
- For many years, the historical-critical quest for a reconstruction of the origin(s) and development of the Pentateuch or Hexateuch has been dominated by the documentary hypothesis, the heuristic power of which has produced a consensus so strong that an interpreter who did not operate within its framework was hardly regarded as a scholar. However, the relentless march of research on this topic has continued to yield new and refined analyses, data, methodological tools, and criticism. In this spirit, the contributions to this volume investigate new ideas about the composition of the Pentateuch arising from careful analysis of the biblical text against its ancient Near Eastern background.Covering a wide spectrum of topics and diverging perspectives, the chapters in this book are grouped into two parts. The first is primarily concerned with the history of scholarship and alternative approaches to the development of the Pentateuch. The second focuses on the exegesis of particular texts relevant to the composition of the Torah. The aim of the project is to foster investigation and collegial dialogue in a spirit of humility and frankness, without imposing uniformity.In addition to the editors, the contributors include Tiago Arrais, Richard E. Averbeck, John S. Bergsma, Joshua A. Berman, Daniel I. Block, Richard Davidson, Roy E. Gane, Duane A. Garrett, Richard S. Hess, Benjamin Kilchör, Michael LeFebvre, Jiří Moskala, and Christian Vogel.
