Belteshazzar or The Heroic Jew: A Dramatic Poem is a work of literature written by Thomas Harrison and published in 1727. The poem is a retelling of the biblical story of Belshazzar, the king of Babylon, and his encounter with the Jewish prophet Daniel. The story is set in ancient Babylon, where Belshazzar is throwing a lavish feast for his nobles when a mysterious hand appears and writes on the wall. Daniel is called upon to interpret the message, which warns of the king's impending downfall. The poem explores themes of power, pride, and the consequences of ignoring divine warnings. Harrison's work is notable for its use of blank verse, a form of poetry that does not rhyme but maintains a consistent meter. The poem also includes elements of classical tragedy, with a focus on the downfall of a powerful figure. Overall, Belteshazzar or The Heroic Jew is a compelling work of literature that offers a fresh interpretation of a well-known biblical story.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

In this wonderful treatment of order and structure in communion with God, "Spiritual Logic" aids the reader in understanding that there is a logical order to the way one prays and thinks about their time of devotions. God is a God of logic, and so, why would someone not use logic in order to "order their prayers?"Harrison is going to take you down a logical road of gaining some hints and helps to your personal devotional life. He will aid you in overcoming an inept prayer life to make your conversations with God run deeper. He deals with a number of preliminary aspects that serve as hindrances to good devotions, such as unacquaintedness with the Lord, a sense of more than ordinary unworthiness ever to be acquainted savingly with God, what it means to be jealous for Christ, and to love Christ, and the Father. He covers the fear of unbelief, the fear of hypocrisy, the fear of being acted only by a slavish spirit of fear, a sense of fearful backslidings, and a sense of one's strong corruptions that hinder devotions. He speaks extensively of many negative thoughts that crowd the Christian when they try to have faithful devotions, such as desertion felt or feared by God (will God even hear me?), sudden uneasiness that one experiences from cloudy providences, how to deal with the dread of spiritual judgements, hardness of heart, and unprofitableness under the means of grace. Especially considered is the fear that one's prayer is not heard. His work is unique in that he not only gives various remedies for hindrances, but also helps to devotion in the actual way the Christian ought to logically speak to God by using his word (spiritual logic) in setting their prayers on God's prescriptions. This is an excellent work in showing, step by step, how the Christian can pray effectively using this spiritual logic, which is indeed, hints and helps to raise their personal devotions for the glory of the Redeemer.This work is not a scan or facsimile, has been carefully transcribed by hand being made easy to read in modern English, and has an active table of contents for electronic versions.

The spirit of the Beatles lives on in this satire on both the Beatles and their historians! This is a fun book for Beatles fans who are willing to laugh at the music and musicians they love. It's a humorous, irreverent romp, very tongue-in-cheek and not the least bit serious. While it poses as another stodgy analysis of all Beatles compositions, it really has more in common with the Monty Python flavored "Rutles" film. Old-time drawings make it more fun & visually stimulating. A pleasant time is guaranteed for all!
