From Gods to God: How the Bible Debunked, Suppressed, or Changed Ancient Myths and LegendsThe ancient Israelites believed things that the writers of the Bible wanted them to forget: myths and legends from a pre biblical world that the new monotheist order needed to bury, hide, or reinterpret. Ancient Israel was rich in such literary traditions before the Bible reached the final form that we have today. These traditions were not lost but continued, passed down through the ages. Many managed to reach us in post biblical sources: rabbinic
The ancient Israelites believed things that the writers of the Bible wanted them to forget: myths and legends from a pre-biblical world that the new monotheist order needed to bury, hide, or reinterpret. Ancient Israel was rich in such literary traditions before the Bible reached the final form that we have today. These traditions were not lost but continued, passed down through the ages. Many managed to reach us in post-biblical sources: rabbinic literature, Jewish Hellenistic writings, the writings of the Dead Sea sect, the Aramaic, Greek, Latin, and other ancient translations of the Bible, and even outside the ancient Jewish world in Christian and Islamic texts. The Bible itself sometimes alludes to these traditions, often in surprising contexts. Written in clear and accessible language, this volume presents thirty such traditions. It voyages behind the veil of the written Bible to reconstruct what was told and retold among the ancient Israelites, even if it is "not what the Bible tells us."Binding Type: Paperback

Awesome eyebrow pen
Color: Medium Brown
** Another update** I am back a third time to again proclaim my LOVE for this product. I will cry the day Ardell discontinues this brown pen! So I am stocking up, with 3 backups available at all times lol. This will literally give you the fluffy brows of your dreams. You can rub with your finger and it will not smudge. I am a brow SNOB and this stuff is perfection!
Original review: This pen is great! I have used it twice so far and the hair strokes look very natural. The product really stays in place. I slept in my makeup last night (I know, not good lol), and my brows still look great today with no touch ups. I highly recommend!
*** Update 2 months later ***
After using this for 2 months, I did repurchase another pen. As with any liquid product, this will start to dry out after 1-2 months of daily use but that is to be expected in my opinion. Repurchasing this once every 2 months at the price is not a negative in my opinion. I did not have any trouble with the tip drying out while applying until 2 weeks ago which is your sign that it's time to purchase a fresh pen. I will continue to purchase this product for as long as they make it.

Best Eyebrow Product EVER
Color: Medium Brown
This is the BEST felt-tip eyebrow pen. I’ve used SO many and have been disappointed by them all. (Glossier Brow Flick is too finicky and can be too Sharpie-looking if you’re not careful, and it has a tendency to leak if you store it upside-down; the drugstore ones from NYX and Loreal don’t make lines that are thin enough; the multi-pronged ones from K-beauty places aren’t pigmented enough; the dual-ended pencil and ink stain from Urban Decay wears off too quickly... I could go on). But THIS one? This one is so easy to use, and the results look so natural, like actual hairs. And it’s so easy to get really thin, precise strokes. AND it lasts all day! Seriously, I hope they never discontinue this. My absolute favorite.

Solid edger for the price!
Easy to assemble and works well for my needs edging the driveway and sidewalk! Reasonable price and seems fairly well made so far! I’ve only used it a couple of times but does the job well!

Great Yard Helper!
So easy to use and affordable! This edger is a great time saver, easy to operate, and relatively easy to adjust although you may need a pliers or screwdriver to help with the adjustment levels, but its not difficult. I would have given this 5 stars but just one thing that is a sticking point for me is I wish this had its own stand or hanger because of its odd shape, it doesn't necessarily balance upright too well. It’s long and the guide wheel in the front sticks out. So, it is always awkward to get it tidy in the garage when not in use. Now maybe this is what it's like for landscapers…I’m not a professional. Just a homeowner doing my own upkeep. With what this costs, I’ll figure it out, and is worth the money.
