    Naming God in Early Judaism
    This study brings together all ancient evidence to tell the story of the divine name, YHWH, as it travels in Aramaic, Hebrew, and Greek through the Second Temple period, the most formative era of Judaism.During the Second Temple period (516 BCE-70 CE), Jews became reticent to speak and write the divine name, YHWH, also known by its four letters in Greek as the tetragrammaton. Priestly, pious, and scribal circles limitted the use of God's name, and then it disappeared. The variables are poorly understood and the evidence is scattered. This study brings together all ancient Jewish literary and epigraphic evidence in Aramaic, Hebrew, and Greek to describe how, when, and in what sources Jews either used or avoided the divine name. Instead of a diachronic contrast from use to avoidance, as is often the scholarly assumption, the evidence suggests diverse and overlapping naming practices that draw specific meaning from linguistic, geographic, and social contexts.

    A Penis Manologue: One Man's Response to The Vagina Monologues , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 153min, (USK 18)
    Content in this book was banned from a college classroom that studied The Vagina Monologues. After reading Eve Ensler's book and attending a local production of her play, author Joe DiBuduo wanted to respond with his distinctly creative, male point of view. DiBuduo planned to write a play or screenplay titled The Penis Chronicles. After handing out a questionnaire to a multitude of people who said they would participate, Joe received only one response. The Penis Chronicles couldn't be written with only his and another man's thoughts. Realizing how reticent most men and even his college instructor were to talk about penises, DiBuduo felt obligated to research and share his narrative about the male appendage. He ended up with one monologue - A Penis Manologue. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Ian Temple. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/033270/bk_acx0_033270_sample.mp3.

    In this paranormal romance, Felicity, a college student, travels to the Amazon rainforest for her cultural study abroad program.

There's more than hostile tribes in the jungle, though. A malevolent group of human and drug traffickers, the Selvagens Verdes, use the lush forest to cover up their violent crime.

    The Case of the Mythical Monkeys: Perry Mason Series, Book 59 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 342min
    It all began when pretty Gladys Doyle lost her way and was forced to spend the night in a remote cabin. The next morning she discovered her handsome host gone and a stranger in his place - dead as the proverbial herring. There follows a courtroom scene in the best Perry Mason tradition, with a most reticent group of witnesses: a lady author whose realistic novel is a bit too true to life; Edgar Carlisle, equally talented at telling stories; Richard Gilman, an old hand at the disappearing act; and a smart, sharp operator never at a loss for clever plots. Action and suspense are at their height and the adroit Mason at his legal best in this superb mystery. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Alexander Cendese.
