In this thoroughly provocative book, the late Eugene Seaich makes a detailed study of the intractable mystery of the Jerusalem temple. Using historical sources and ingenious detective work, Seaich suggests that the cherubim in Solomon’s temple were portrayed in a copulatory embrace. Aware that this thesis is not entirely novel, the author builds a substantial case in its favor and traces the influence of the atonement (at-one-ment) theology behind the concept through Israel’s wisdom school, New Testament and Gnostic sources, up through the Middle Ages. |
|  | Word of Tree and Whisper of Stone, and other papers on Ugaritian thought by Nicolas Wyatt

|  | The Coming of the Impassible God: Tracing a Dilemma in Christian Theology by Joseph Hallman
This book describes the development of the Christian understanding of God from the second to the eighth century as witnessed by major theologians who gradually realized that the Incarnate Word made flesh was not the God of the philosophers. They helped construct the great dogmas of the Christological councils. Beginning with the Apologists and ending with Maximus Confessor, the theological tradition overcame the notion of impassible deity in favor of the humble God of Christian faith, the Word made flesh. |
|  | The Qatal//Yiqtol (Yiqtol//Qatal) Verbal Sequence in Semitic Couplets by Silviu Tatu
The book investigates the qatal//yiqtol (yiqtol//qatal) verbal sequence, previously known as ‘tense shifting’, as found in couplets of the Hebrew Psalter, attempting an innovatory explanation by means of M.A.K. Halliday’s Systemic Theory. Examples from Ugaritic poetry are also provided. |
|  | The Ethics of Violence in the Story of Aqhat by Chloe Sun
This book examines the ethics of violence in the Ugaritic story of Aqhat by using the conventions of characterization and point of view. The multiple perspectives on Anat's act of violence present a complex and nuanced understanding of the subject in question. |

This book presents a comparative work on the nature and various roles of the lesser deities, the so-called angels, in the Ugaritic Texts and the Hebrew Bible. The author agrees with and follows the traditional idea which insists on the necessity for a comparative study between the two religious literatures from Ugarit and ancient Israel. The study in this volume is interested in their membership in the heavenly council, their kinship among the deities, and their roles such as messengers, warriors, mediators, guardians, chanters, or servants, which have numerous similarities, in the Ugaritic texts and the Old Testament. Sang Youl Cho is an Assistant Pastor of Youngnak Presbyterian Church in Seoul, Korea. He holds M.Div. and Th.M. degrees from Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary and a Ph.D. from the University of Edinburgh. He has written extensively on general issues in Ugaritic and Old Testament studies. | |
