Ernest Hemingway said, “All modern American literature comes from one book by Mark Twain called Huckleberry Finn". One hundred years after its author’s death, this classic remains remarkably modern and poignantly relevant. In this new edition, Elijah Wood reads Huck in a youthful voice that may be the closest interpretation to Twain’s original intent. His performance captures the excitement and confusion of adolescence and adventure.

The Prophet Elijah is considered one of the greatest servants of God to have ever walked the earth. Listen to this Jewish perspective: As the herald of the messianic age and a recurring figure in Jewish folklore, Elijah's legacy surpasses that of virtually all the other prophets of Israel. Elijah is a biblical prophet and a central figure in Jewish folklore, which is riddled with stories of his roaming the earth, performing miracles, and providing spiritual and physical healing. Considering his very high esteem, it is incomprehensively incomprehensible that he is such a mystery. In short we...

Plague and warfare have swept across the Orient, ravaging the ancient kingdom of Wa, devastating the royal line, and leaving a new dynasty on the throne—a new emperor, Akantsu, filled with fear of all who might seek to wrest the empire from his grasp. Among those out of favor with the new liege is the Order of the Botahist Monks, whose mystical powers have enabled them to hold positions as spiritual advisors to the imperial court for nearly ten centuries.

Elijah ministered during a terrible time in Israel’s history. Apostasy was at an all-time high because Ahab, Israel’s worst king, was on the throne (1 Kgs 16:30). His ungodly influence was augmented by his wife, Jezebel, who introduced Baal worship to Israel. In order to restore Israel to God, the Lord called one of his greatest prophets, Elijah, to confront Ahab (1 Kings 17:1). Elijah’s ministry was unique. He prayed that it would not rain as a judgment for Israel’s sins, and it did not rain for three and a half years. He challenged Baal’s prophets to a contest to prove that ...

The Prophet of Fire The importance of Elijah to the Abrahamic tradition cannot be over emphasised. Whereas as Noah is the harbinger of the deluge,it is Elijah who is prophesied to return in the End Times as the harbinger of Armageddon, according to the last book of prophesy of the Old Testament (Malachi 4:5). The major prophets of the Bible include: Noah, Abraham, Moses, Elijah and Jesus. Of these prophets, Elijah is the least familiar to the public at large in spite of his pivotal role in eschatology. Ostensibly, Elijah’s nemesis, Jezebel, has made a bigger impact upon the public ...

Though residing in heaven, Elijah revisits earth—to help, rescue, enlighten, and eventually herald the Messiah.
