Audio book description
The King James Version of the Old Testament remains the favorite of millions of readers for both its inspirational and poetic qualities. The books featured here, Ecclesiastes, Song of Solomon, and Isaiah, are at the same time rich, evocative, and dignified. From Ecclesiastes, "To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under heaven..." From Song of Solomon, "For, lo, the winter is past, the rain is over and gone; The flowers appear on the earth; and the time of the singing birds is come..." And from Isaiah, "Come...let us reason together, saith the Lord; though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white snow..." Michael York and Juliet Mills read these remarkable books with eloquent expressiveness.

Thomas Merton, toward the end of his life, warned of a "pervasive form of contemporary violence" that is unique to our times: overwork and overactivity. In his work as a minister and caregiver, Wayne Muller observed the effects of this violence on our communities, our families, and our people. He responds to this escalating "war on our spirits" in this audio guide, and immerses listeners in the sacred tradition of the shabbat - the day of rest - a tradition that is all but forgotten in an age where consumption, speed, and productivity have become the most valued human commodities. He offers practices and exercises that reflect the sabbath as recognized in Christianity, Judaism, and Buddhism. Through his way of nourishment and repose, Muller teaches, we welcome insights and blessings and arise only with stillness and time.

Nothing is known about his life, but without his words, our language would be missing some of the most beautiful passages ever written.

Perhaps no other Biblical tale penetrates so deeply into the everyday travails of the common person as The Book of Job . It tells the story of a righteous man beset by torment and misfortune through no fault of his own. This parable of bad things happening to a good person addresses the eternal question of why we are here, and why we suffer. This translation is by Stephen Mitchell.
