Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - What kind of serpent talks And what does a piece of fruit have to do with being naked These aren't rhetorical questions - they're the two threads Scripture leaves dangling in the very first pages of Genesis, threads that most readers rush past on their way to the more familiar parts of the story. But look closer, and the ground shifts beneath you. No ordinary animal negotiates. No ordinary animal reasons, contradicts, and reframes the character of God in a single breath. Something else entered that garden - and Scripture never once calls it a lie to say so.Generation of Vipers begins where the Bible begins: with a creature Genesis calls 'subtil,' a curse that changes rather than merely describes, and a woman's own words at the birth of her first son - words stranger, and more revealing, than four thousand years of familiar retelling have prepared you to hear. From there, the trail does not go cold. It runs through Cain's altar and Cain's field, through Christ's own words to the religious leaders of His day - generation of vipers - through a parable of wheat and tares sown by two hands in the same soil, through Paul's warnings to a church he feared was being deceived exactly as Eve once was, and finally to Revelation, where the serpent that opened the Bible without a name closes it named twice over.This is a book built entirely from Scripture's own words - Hebrew verbs weighed against their every other use, Greek terms compared across Paul's own letters, genealogies followed link by link - asking not what tradition assumes about Eden, but what the text itself actually says, verse by verse, from the first curse to the final throne.Two seeds. One ancient enmity. And a question Genesis asks before it ever answers: what, exactly, stood in that garden - and what did it leave behind.…

The present collection offers a window into the literary world of American poet and humorist Ogden Nash (1902-1971). It is comprised of 239 volumes published between 1886 and 1971, among which are numerous presentation and association copies. All books in the present collection come from the shared personal library of Ogden and Frances Nash. The collection spans poetry, humor, light verse, and literary criticism, and includes a significant number of first and limited editions, often in original bindings or dust jackets. Of particular note are six books inscribed by Nash to his wife, Frances (including five authored by Nash, one of which is in an "Author's Copy" half-leather binding). Included in the collection are 59 works by Nash, three of which feature edits to the text in Nash's hand. Twenty-seven of these Nash publications are Author's copies bound in half-leather. There are an additional 48 volumes bearing inscriptions to Nash from other authors and poets, most notably twelve volumes inscribed by S.J. Perelman. Among the 132 uninscribed volumes included here, 45 bear Ogden Nash's ownership inscription (10 bear the ownership inscription of Frances Nash). The number and range of authorial inscriptions represented in the present collections reflect Nash's wide-ranging literary friendships and professional associations. Notable among these are twelve warmly inscribed titles by humorist S.J. Perelman, whose acerbic wit is on display in a series of affectionate, playful, and sometimes satirical inscriptions to both Nash and his wife, Frances. These volumes also reflect Perelman and Nash's shared experiences in Hollywood and the literary scene of mid-century America. Other highlights include inscriptions from John Betjeman, Christopher Morley, E.C. Bentley, A.P. Herbert, David McCord, William Plumer Fowler, and Holger Lundbergh, among others-each evidencing Nash's influence and the esteem in which he was held across literary and cultural circles in the U.S. and the U.K. O.…
