Since 1914 Cambridge has published The Elements of New Testament Greek, a best-selling textbook for scholars and students of the Bible. The original book by H. P. V. Nunn was replaced and succeeded in 1965 by J. W. Wenham's book of the same title; now Jeremy Duff has produced a new book to continue this long-established tradition into the twenty-first century. This audio CD set accompanies the new third edition of 'The Elements'. It contains the vocabulary lists, reading passages, and paradigms from the book, read aloud so as to enable students to reinforce their familiarity with the Greek alphabet and the sound of the Greek words. This will particularly benefit those students whose learning style is strongly auditory, but will enhance the progress of many others by facilitating study even when away from their books.

Summer begins with Mary Kay Andrews, in this delightful summer listen about flipping houses, and finding true love.Hattie Cavanaugh went to work cleaning up restored homes for Cavanaugh & Son Restorations at eighteen, married the boss’s son at twenty, and was only twenty-five when her husband, Hank, was killed in a motorcycle accident.Broken hearted, but determined to continue the business of their dreams, she takes the life insurance money, buys a small house in a gentrifying neighborhood, flips it, then invests the money into her next project.

The 1619 Project illuminated the ways in which every aspect of life in the United States was and is shaped by the existence of slavery. Black Ghost of Empire focuses on emancipation and how this opportunity to make right further codified the racial caste system--instead of obliterating it.To understand why the shadow of slavery still haunts society today, we must not only look at what slavery was, but also the unfinished way it ended. One may think of emancipation as a finale, leading to a new age of human rights and universal freedoms. But in reality, emancipations everywhere were incomplete. In Black Ghost of Empire, acclaimed historian and professor Kris Manjapra identifies five types of emancipation--explaining them in chronological order--along with the lasting impact these transitions had on formerly enslaved groups around the Atlantic. Beginning in 1770s and concluding in 1880s, different kinds of emancipation processes took place across the Atlantic world. These included the Gr
