The 2nd WJG was a professor of Hebrew and Old Testament Literature at a Canadian university. He published a number of books. I believe this in one of them. When I first began researching WJG this was quite confusing to me.Rod Mannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10241182790476070316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-696817881234121652.post-83203263647880710192018-11-05T09:55:30.597-07:002018-11-05T09:55:30.597-07:00Dear Ron Mann, You might wish, also, to include th...Dear Ron Mann, You might wish, also, to include the following: Prophetic Ideas, & Ideals: a series of Short Studies, in the Prophetic Literature, of the Hebrew People, Fleming H.

It really pulls me, flows through me and energizes me with life force, joy and deep fulfillment. The greatest feeling there is :)<br /><br />Take care, I wish you much health, love and happiness.<br /><br />Andreas, 22, from Germany<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-696817881234121652.post-85654466595905756702013-03-18T10:33:03.254-06:002013-03-18T10:33:03.254-06:00Aaron, you are very welcome.

I have just discovered his writing in the past week and been fascinated. I believe his body of writing is a hidden gem that unfortunately has gone unnoticed by many. I've collected PDFs of his major books and am in the process of having them transcribed to straight text. I'd love to see more people read and enjoy his work. Your multiple resources are extremely helpful!<br />AaronAaron Kerrnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-696817881234121652.post-39013454619609523492012-08-14T09:10:12.724-06:002012-08-14T09:10:12.724-06:00You are very welcome Gunnar.

It is wonderful to know that this great material is being used. Jordan's remarks are timeless and I believe were inspired. Your bishops and priests might also enjoy "Little Problems of Married Life." Most of the counsel offered is as applicable today as the day it was written. I'm sure they could use it when they minister to their parishioners. Interestingly enough Jordan wrote this over 10 years before he married.Rod Mannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10241182790476070316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-696817881234121652.post-28906185950378296542012-05-08T18:35:40.351-06:002012-05-08T18:35:40.351-06:00I´m a mexican teacher of English for adults and i´...I´m a mexican teacher of English for adults and i´ve encouraged my students to become a better language learners by doing extra activities ousite classroom, now we´re reading the Power of Truth during 30 minutes in every class as I´m teaching two groups of bishops and priests.
