Rhythm of the Christian Year Renewing the Religious Cycle of Festivals

By: BOCK, EMIL

Price: $37.00

Publisher: United Kingdom, Floris Books: 2000

Seller ID: 694

ISBN: 0863153089

Binding: Hardback

For many people today, the intimate connection that exists between the human being and the seasonal rhythms of the year has been lost. Emancipated from nature by the progress of modern technology, we have at the same time become alienated from the Earth's cyclical patterns. Our religious life, once so deeply embedded in and supported by the natural world, has increasingly lost awareness of the profound rhythm in the festive year. Only perhaps at Christmas time and at Easter does a vague memory survive of the inter-relationship between earthly and cosmic events. In this collection of festival m...

Kings and Prophets Saul, David, Solomon, Elijah, Jonah, Isaiah and Jeremiah

By: BOCK, EMIL

Price: $41.99

Publisher: United Kingdom, Floris Books: 2006

Edition: 2

ISBN: 0863155731

In an age where much of the Bible is frequently proclaimed to be irrelevant, perhaps it is the prophets of the Old Testament who are the least regarded of all. What significance could these obscure historical figures from a small nation - at best, examples of moral uprightness and devotion - have for us today? Emil Bock argues that they are, in fact, hugely relevant. He shows that it was among the Israelite-Jewish people of the last pre-Christian millennium that the true pulse of the spirit of the age was beating. For that period, they were the brightly-illuminated centre of world history, a f...

Genesis Creation and the Patriarchs

By: BOCK, EMIL

Price: $41.99

Publisher: United Kingdom, Floris Books: 2011

Seller ID: 11861

ISBN: 0863157815

The biblical author of Genesis wrote in great cosmic images. The dramatic figures of Adam, Noah, Abraham, Jacob and Joseph pass before our eyes, each in turn revealing hidden mystery knowledge. Emil Bock's gift is to interpret these majestic events for our modern-day understanding, without diminishing them. He brings his wide reading of the occult and mythological traditions, as well as the spiritual investigations of Rudolf Steiner, to bear on the texts, deepening our appreciation of Genesis as an outstanding work of art, relevant to the world of today.

Childhood of Jesus, The The Unknown Years

By: BOCK, EMIL

Price: $49.00

Publisher: Floris Books:

Seller ID: 661

ISBN: 0863156193

Binding: Paperback

The gospel accounts of the birth and childhood of Jesus have puzzling discrepancies and contradictions. In particular, Matthew and Luke give different versions of the genealogy and birth of Jesus, and of the events that follow.

A long forgotten tradition held that there were, in fact, two families and two Jesus children whose destinies would come together: one from the kingly line of Solomon, and the other from the priestly line of Nathan. There are various apocryphal texts, as well as works of art, in which both children clearly occur.

Emil Bock shows how the pattern and str...

By: BOCK, EMIL

Price: $44.00

Publisher: Floris Books:

Seller ID: 811

ISBN: 0863155359

Binding: Paperback

How can a scientifically-minded person approach the healings and miracles of the Gospels, including such events as the raising of Lazarus and the Resurrection itself? Emil Bock rediscovers the healings and miracles of Christ for the skeptical mind without minimising the difficulties. He brings together historical records and the geographical background of the Gospels, without losing sight of their spiritual wisdom. Bock considers the Gospel of John to give the most precise record of the events of Christ's three year ministry, as well as being the Gospel with the deepest esoteric significance. ...

Emil Bock interprets John's rich pictorial language, which is often found harsh and mysterious, helping the reader understand that John deals with the universal problems of spiritual development. This is not merely a detailed commentary on the Apocalypse but a profound and encouraging examination of human needs in today's world. Bock shows how we can read The Revelation to understand Christ's position as leader through danger, both in the present and in the future.

Moses From the Mysteries of Egypt to the Judges of Israel

Price: $46.99

Publisher: United Kingdom, Floris Books: 2011

Seller ID: 11136

ISBN: 0863157807

During the time of Moses a fundamental change in people's consciousness took place. Moses himself still had the ancient faculty of natural clairvoyance while a new, intellectual faculty was awakening. Bock describes the symbols and myths of the Osiris-Isis mysteries, the Messianic hopes concerning the young sun-Pharaoh, Akhenaton, and the spiritual twilight of the Egyptian mysteries that led Moses to leave Egypt for the desert. Bock interprets the imagery of the Bible in detail: the unconsumed burning bush, the miracles of staff and spring, the revelation on the Mount Sinai. He finds an inner ...

Describing the environment into which Saul was born, his education, his conversion before Damascus and his subsequent journeys, Bock's study gives a spiritual dimension to Paul's background, providing a deeper understanding of this great Christian figure and his teaching. Above all he shows that Paul was the apostle who carried Christianity beyond the Jewish communities to humanity at large. As a zealous Jew, Paul was convinced he was serving the coming Messiah in his persecution of the followers of Jesus. When the light suddenly came to him before Damascus, his innermost being was opened. Pau...
