Chiasmus is a form of poetry where ideas are expressed and then repeated in reverse order. Ancient Hebrew poetic writing is filled with chiasmus. For example, the Old Testament has hundreds of chiasms.
A simple example of chiasmus is found in Matthew 23:12:
A Whosoever exalteth himself
B Shall be abased;
B And he that humbleth himself
A Shall be exalted.
Significantly, chiasmus is also frequently found in the Book of Mormon, which also, ultimately, has ancient Hebrew origins. Book of Mormon Chiasmus brings together nearly three hundred extraordinary examples of chiasmus found in this holy scripture.
This book will be a welcome addition to the library of anyone who loves the Book of Mormon and desires a deeper understanding of its connections to the Hebrew world.

Fully illustrated, The Santa Claus Book has chapters on Mrs. Santa Claus, the Polar Dragon, how Santa makes toys, the elvish family tree, why Santa goes down chimneys, and exciting things to see at the North Pole--along with many more fun, funny, and heartwarming stories and facts about everyone's favorite holiday helper.

This new collection includes such impressive classics as The Gods of the Copybook Headings, The City of Brass, Recessional, Jubal and Tubal Cain, When Earth's Last Picture Is Painted, If, and many, many more.With prophetic vision, Rudyard Kipling's timeless verse speaks clearly to our own times. He was a keen observer of human nature--and of his times--which were much like our times: government leaders who were inept or corrupt or both, foreign conflicts that never seemed to end (or simply cropped up in other places), a populace who had largely forgotten God, and a general confusion about what was right and what was wrong.Kipling was something rarer than a philosopher; he was a prophet, wrote T. S. Eliot. He had a gift for prophecy.Kipling's warning voice sounds a clarion call to the troubled and stumbling world of the 21st century.

This collection also includes Ernest Hemingway's The Killers, Saki's Sredni Vashtar, Jack London's To Build a Fire, Ambrose Bierce's The Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge, H. G. Wells's The Country of the Blind, and the classic thrillers W. W. Jacobs' Captain Rogers and Carl Stephenson's Leiningen versus the Ants.
The Book of Mormon is filled with parallelisms, a form of ancient poetry. The poetic patterns serve, as they do in the Bible, to structure and emphasize messages, define and expand them, and make them more memorable. One form of parallelism, chiasmus, has been extensively studied; the Book of Mormon has an abundance of chiasmus, as well as other forms of parallelism.
The prophets of the Book of Mormon were inspired in their stylistic choices, employing word combinations that greatly expand our understanding of what they had to say. In the process, they used more than 25 different types of parallelism--and those forms were transmitted to us through the translation of the Book of Mormon from its ancient language into English (and subsequently into other languages).
Poetic Parallelisms in the Book of Mormon: The Complete Text Reformatted gives us the entire Book of Mormon in a new format. Parts of the book are presented in narrative form (which typically doesn't use parallelisms), but this volume also arranges in their poetic form 325 instances of chiasmus and hundreds of additional parallel structures.
Reading the Book of Mormon in this format will heighten our understanding and deepen our appreciation of this marvelous book of scripture.

A reader's edition of the King James Version of the Bible-
the greatest book ever written.
Reader's editions remove the extra elements found in many Bibles. Chapter headings, subheads, verse breaks, and footnotes can be helpful, but they can also be distracting. Further, such editorial additions, while valuable at times, can also influence our interpretation of the text.
Reader's editions strip away these extra elements and leave the scripture as it was originally written. These editions (sometimes called paragraph Bibles) remove the textual elements that can get between the reader and the revealed word of God.
Reader's editions of some modern translations are readily available. But such editions of the King James Version can be hard to find.
The King James Version (KJV) is the bestselling and most-read Bible in history. It is commonly viewed as the greatest literary achievement in the English language. The King James Version: Reader's Bible gives readers these benefits:
The King James Version: Reader's Bible will help you to read the story, prophecy, and poetry of the Bible in a new way-the way it was originally produced. This volume will be perfect for devotional reading, extended reading, and discovering anew the overarching message of God's word.
