... well before lichens recolonized the polluted trees, and that a parallel increase and decrease of the melanic form also occurred in industrial areas of the United States, where there was no change in the abundance of the lichens that supposedly play such an important role. (Not black and white, Jerry Coyne, Nature 396, 35 - 36, 1998) Majerus concludes, reasonably, that all we can deduce from this story is that it is a case of rapid evolution, probably involving pollution and bird predation. ... Why did birds eliminate in polluted forests, the light coloured pepper moths that rest high in trees hidden under branches, but DID NOT eliminate the light coloured Oak Beauty moths that do rest on the dark tree trunks? "Many nocturnal moths do rest by day on tree trunks and searching trunks has long been a recognised method of collecting employed by lepidopterists. However, the number of published records of peppered moths being found on tree trunks is negligible." (Melanism: Evolution in ... ...

302: Debate with Catholic on Sola Scriptura (Riggs Vs Lopez)
... He said, "All too well you reject the commandment of God, that you may keep your tradition...making the word of God of no effect through your tradition which you have handed down. And many such things you do." (Mark 7:9,13). Jesus' manner of condemning the traditions of men was, "God said...but you say..." (Matt. 15:4-5; Mark 7:10-11). After He mentioned, "God said," He then quoted Scripture. That was His method of drawing a clear, sharp contrast between the written Word of God and the oral ...

Like Joash king of Judah, Adad-Nirari III was coregent with his mother Semiramis for 6 years from 810-804 BC: Like Joash king of Judah who inherited the throne at age 1 and his queen mother Athaliah ruled for 6 years, Adad-Nirari III's mother Semiramis was queen for 6 years. We don't have any solid information that Semiramis was coregent, but she did play a unique central role since she is named on several inscriptions.

It is now well known that two methods of reckoning the years of a reign were in use in the Ancient Near East: the one most usual in the history books of the Old Testament counts the months between the king's accession and the new year as a complete year, whereas the method most usual in Babylon called those months the accession year and began to count the years of the king's reign from the first new year.

306: The Dugger-Porter Debate on Sunday as the Lord's Day
... If they had been keeping the Sabbath for 2500 years, they would already have been proven. I gave this point in my first negative. What reply did Dugger make? His usual silence. Abraham kept God's commandments (Gen. 26:5). My opponent says this proves he kept the Sabbath. By the same method of reasoning I can prove that he was baptized and ate the Lord's supper. These are God's commandments too. But Dugger's brethren have "divine power and heavenly wisdom" that enable them to see what the Bible ... He saw it would not do to answer for if he said "yes," he would be "under the law" (Rom. 3:19), and according to him, under condemnation. If he said "no," he would be without any authority to keep the Sabbath. So he saw his doom, backed down and said nothing. 2. In view of his position that from the beginning the Sabbath requirement was of universal application, to Jew and Gentile alike, I asked him: Why were the Gentiles called strangers? He could never find a satisfactory answer. 3. And from ... ...

... Most of Bible prophecy is where an inspired New Testament writer connects a pattern of events in Jesus life with Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Moses and Elijah. e. There are several clear examples of Bible prophecy that extend beyond the initial fulfillment and find secondary application to Christians today.

308: Essays on the Anatomy of Expression in Painting, Sir Charles ...
Bell was a forerunner of body language expert, Tonya Reiman. As an artist Bell had visited Bedlam and was surprised to learn that some of his own stereotypes of the insane were wrong, before he visited. The visit gave his a whole new view of insanity. Written to coach painters, Bell's book opens a window into the etiology of madness just before the torture at Bedlam came to an end. He backs up his belief that the spirit has a direct effect upon the body by quoting Dr. James Beattie, "Descartes, ... The error into which a painter would naturally fall, is to represent this expression by the swelling features of passion and the frowning eyebrow; but this would only convey the idea of passion, not of madness. Or he mistakes melancholia for madness. The theory upon which we are to proceed in attempting to convey this peculiar expression of ferocity amidst the utter wreck of the intellect, I conceive to be this, that the expression of mental energy should be avoided, and consequently all ... ...

And Paul said the prophecy of Hosea was fulfilled when the Gentiles were given the opportunity to "seek the Lord" and "trust" in Christ-Rom. 9:24-27.

Today Amnon would not be convicted of raping his sister Tamar because a chemical psychiatrist would testify at his trial that he had a "conversion disorder" and was mentally ill.

Don't call God a Liar! Introduction: The assassination of Gedaliah The story of the assassination of Gedaliah is the ... The Holy Spirit was careful to draw special attention in showing a reverse parallel in the story of Saul unsuccessfully trying to extinct the throne of David in attempting to kill him, and Ishmael the son of David unsuccessfully trying to restore the throne of David in the successful assassination of Gedaliah. The fact there are two whole chapters in Jeremiah about Gedaliah is a signal something greater than insurrection and murder of a governor is in play here. Indeed, the destruction of ... ...

326: Flavius Josephus Chronology of the Destruction of Jerusalem's ...
... By fortune, the lot so fell as to demonstrate their iniquity after the plainest manner, for it fell upon one whose name was Phannias, the son of Samuel, of the village Aphtha. He was a man not only unworthy of the high priesthood, but that did not well know what the high priesthood was; such a mere rustic was he! (156) Yet did they hale this man, without his own consent, out of the country, as if they were acting a play upon the stage, and adorned him with a counterfeit face; they also put upon ... Titus was then present with his father, (628) and said, "O father, it is but just that the scandal [of a prisoner] should be taken off Josephus, together with his iron chain; for if we do not barely loose his bonds, but cut them to pieces, he will be like a man that hath never been bound at all." For that is the usual method as to such as have been bound without a cause. (629) This advice was agreed to by Vespasian also; so there came a man in, and cut the chain to pieces; while Josephus ... ...

(Baker Encyclopedia of the Bible, p 1537, 1988 AD) b. "It was from this time that mercenaries began to play a significant role in the country, later forming a separate division in the Egyptian army, a fact known from texts dealing with Psammetichus II's campaign into Nubia (see below). Garrisons were established at the south in Elephantine, ... Unique among the documents was the euphemistic and cryptic double negative prohibition on either spouse against "not not" doing the right of one or two of his/her colleagues' spouses. This refusal of conjugal rights was likewise "hatred," that is, tantamount to repudiation by conduct, and it too resulted in application of the "law of hatred" (lines 37-40). Concluding the document was a Waiver by Zaccur of the right to reclaim the dowry (lines 40-42). The scribe was the professional Mauziah and ... ...

... organized a Church, and commissioned it to preach the Gospel to every creature in all nations - he "gave up the ghost," and "descended into hell" - the first hell - and preached the Gospel unto them who for many ages had been bound with chains of mental and spiritual darkness, and who were held by the cords of their own wicked and unbridled lusts, without either the knowledge, the will, or the power to break them; and he organized a Church, and commissioned those in it to freely give, as they ... At times, when under the operation of the Holy Spirit, her form and actions appeared to be divinely beautiful and angelic.

329: Coins of the Maccabean Hasmonean Era 166-37 BC. Messianic Star ...
... So the congregation assembled to be ready for battle, and to pray and ask for mercy and compassion. Jerusalem was uninhabited like a wilderness; not one of her children went in or out. The sanctuary was trampled down, and aliens held the citadel; it was a lodging place for the Gentiles. Joy was taken from Jacob; the flute and the harp ceased to play. Then they gathered together and went to Mizpah, opposite Jerusalem, because Israel formerly had a place of prayer in Mizpah. They fasted that day, ... take what had been done patiently, on account of their natural love to their governors; but if they must expect the same for the future also, they implored of her a dismission from her service; for they could not bear to think of attempting any method for their deliverance without her, but would rather die willingly before the palace gate, in case she would not forgive them.
