Rabeeya's Reflections: Love, Sex and Wit

By: Dr. David Rabeeya

It all begins in a lobby of a hotel in Sydney, Australia . . . Korean, Chinese, Japanese; they look alike in his eyes. He saw ample ethnic groups and races before, but it is impossible to differentiate between all these Asians speaking in linguistic codes. This is the way he perceived this human mumbo jumbo in his accidental visit. His English was quite clear to their ears, but he could not detect their mish-mash Australian English accent with their sharp syllables and consonants. It was Greek to him. He could not connect his monotheistic heritage with their cultural and religious gods, customs and mores. In his eyes they were not exotic at all. They were just people with poker faces, as if they were wearing invisible masks. He felt that their presence in the lobby was as if they were under water, bushes and flowers which were surfacing for a while in order to dive again. This total lack of emotion toward their existence in his surrounding was bothering him a little, but he could not fi nd ways to build any invisible spiritual bridges in their direction. There were also New Zealanders with their long vowels and swallowed consonants chatting with Australians about . . . what else? Sports!

Saeeda's Trinity

From Precious To Provocative Novel

By: Dr. David Rabeeya

This book, which contains several literary genres (novel, poetry, essay), is a reflection of many personal and collective journeys of Jews born in Arab lands and of their preservation of their cultural and historical past together with their present passages in Israel and America. They have greatly enriched both the universal and the Jewish worlds in the areas of survival and renewal. They were not only able to survive the onslaught of historical forces beyond their control but also to contribute to the constructive power of change. They were able to somehow turn tragedies into triumphs, difficulties into opportunities and frustration into a celebration of life and into joy. Dr. David Rabeeya continues to depict his own struggles as well as his Sephardic communities as an example for the building of dialogues and understanding in a world of division and conflict. This is his forty-seventh publication.

The Plow and the Sword

By: Dr. David Rabeeya

This anthology includes a novella about the metamorphosis of one man from a peaceful, loving person to a fanatic, radical, religious zealot. Other sections include the destructive use and abuse of God in human history, as well as the loss of the Jewish Iraqi civilization and its effects on their individual and communal life in Iraq and Israel. Finally, the Lexicon is about the Middle East undressing the mythological concepts and ideas about the region, offering new realistic definitions for terms associated with Zionism and Arab nationalism. Dr. Rabeeya continues to provoke the readers to think about his own interpretations of Jewish and Arab histories, as well as the loss of many individuals who are left only with their pen and mouth to record real events that have affected the soul and the memories of those who are stripped from their dignity and honor.

Israel: Stripped Bare is a book about the brutal reality of Israels existence, written from a perspective of an Arab-Jew.

America: Criticize It but Stay

By: Dr. David Rabeeya

America is a continent and a country full of cruelties and compassion and even hypocrisy with civility. Legalistic and chaotic, oppressive and democratic, capitalistic in the extreme and religiously generous. Black and White sometimes manage to tolerate each other but they prefer not to live near each other. The boundaries are not secure, but her political representatives spend thousands of hours talking about it. Talk is cheap in this mass humanity, and every uninformed person has many opinions about things about which he or she does not know anything. The degradations and attacks of others on the many tools of communication can frequently sound like a religious duty, and publishing gossips about things which have never occurred is often turned into a promising business. Political opponents can cut each others throats for power, money, and fame, but they also publicize their attendances in religious institutions and organizations

No Soul in King Saul

By: Dr. David Rabeeya

In his many publications in the past, Dr. Rabeeya has immersed himself in the political, cultural, and religious perspectives of Judaism and Islam as well as the perspectives of the customs and mores of Sephardic Jews who were born in Arab and Muslim lands. He continues to explore universal human themes associated with the unpredictability in the lives of people and its effect upon the integration and disintegration of both the intellect and the soul of man. King Saul and his spontaneous behavior can be seen in all of us.

Chameleon or Messiah? Only She Knows

By: Dr. David Rabeeya

Like many false Messiahs before her, she decided to try her luck in the field of illusion, disillusion and self-promotion. Her ability to convince others of her divine power and her prophetic projections had drawn the attention of those who needed dreams and visions in a world in which the fast money and the rushing clock had left them on the marginal pages of history. Through her charm and feminine mystique, she was able to bring men of clout under her control before the collapse of the card castle that she built with sophistication and care.

Sephardic Lolita

Judeo-Arabic Restoration and Reconciliation

By: Dr. David Rabeeya

It all began in the streets of Marrakesh in the Jewish sector many, many generations ago. She had the beauty of a Berber Arab and Jewish in her blood. She was born small, but with incredible feminine assets. Her large braziers could not contain her flourishing bosoms. Her hair was long, black, and silky. Above her penetrating and almond-like eyes one could detect the bluish decorative lines. She always wore a Star of David, which often was buried in the depth of her warm and smooth, brown chest. Only on Jewish holidays would she wear her white blouses and white skirts. White was supposed to represent a life of purity and virginity in the dark streets of the Moroccan scene. She was thirteen, her period had already occurred several times. Her mother taught her all that she needs to know about this lifes bloody cycle. Rags were placed after the blood on her private part, and she was told that she is a woman now. She continued to like games with her girlfriends in school. Her idea about being a woman was a combination of a sharp smell, flowing liquids, fear and anxiety. Her head was always covered when she was outside her house. She automatically collected her shining attractive hair into her head cover. In her place she was told that a womans hair was the finest attraction when a man sees the female genders of the world

Reflections on God and His Creatures

By: Dr. David Rabeeya

The concept of God has always held conflicting messages. The purpose of this book is to unravel the misconceptions and mixed messages about God in monotheistic religions throughout history. More people have been killed in the name of God than for any other reason. Reflection upon man’s manipulation of the concept of God under the guise of religion may serve the reader in his human journey. God is always silent. People are always talkative. God has so many religions. People are convinced that their religion is the right one in our spacious universe. God is a commodity in the markets of humanity while he/she keeps his/her distance. God is being manipulated by many and the eternal silence of the divine abuse continues forever. The monotheists often forget that they are in the demographic minorities of the planet. Most people in this world do not accept the idea of one god; therefore, new reflections of the monotheists concerning their negative utilization of the right God in their unique perspectives are due to be revealed to those who care about the divine defensive mode.

The Divided Heart

David

The Divided Heart

By: David Wolpe

Of all the figures in the Bible, David arguably stands out as the most perplexing and enigmatic. He was many things: a warrior who subdued Goliath and the Philistines; a king who united a nation; a poet who created beautiful, sensitive verse; a loyal servant of God who proposed the great Temple and founded the Messianic line; a schemer, deceiver, and adulterer who freely indulged his very human appetites. David Wolpe, whom Newsweek called “the most influential rabbi in America,” takes a fresh look at biblical David in an attempt to find coherence in his seemingly contradictory actions and impulses. The author questions why David holds such an exalted place in history and legend, and then proceeds to unravel his complex character based on information found in the book of Samuel and later literature. What emerges is a fascinating portrait of an exceptional human being who, despite his many flaws, was truly beloved by God.

The God-Powered Life

Awakening to Your Divine Purpose

By: Rabbi David Aaron

You are an individual expression of God; that’s the teaching of the ancient Jewish mystical tradition. Here Rabbi David Aaron shows that when we truly connect to our inner self, that fact becomes wonderfully obvious. Each of us has a divine mission in life, he says, and when we understand this, we are empowered to take control of our life; to use our creative powers more fully; and to give more to others, our community, and the world. In The God-Powered Life, Rabbi Aaron uses Jewish mystical teachings, including the ten Sephirot, or attributes of God, to help us get in touch with our inner selves and find a deeper sense of our own self-worth. In his characteristic warm, witty, and accessible style, Rabbi Aaron helps us find a connection to the divine within ourselves and then shows us how to manifest that divine presence in our dealings with others and during tumultuous times.

King David, Innocent Blood, and Bloodguilt

By: David J. Shepherd

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

King David, Innocent Blood, and Bloodguilt

By: David J. Shepherd

Of all the characters bequeathed to us by the Hebrew Bible, none is more compelling or complex than David. Divinely blessed, musically gifted, brave, and eloquent, David's famous slaying of Goliath also confirms that he is a redoubtable man of war. Yet, when his son Absalom rebels, David is dogged by the accusation than he will lose his kingdom because he is not merely a man of war, but a man of 'bloods' - guilty of shedding innocent blood. In this book, for the first time, this language of 'innocent blood' and 'bloodguilt' is traced throughout David's story in the books of Samuel and 1 Kings. The theme emerges initially in Saul's pursuit of David and resurfaces regularly as David rises and men like Nabal, Saul, Ishbosheth, and Abner fall. Innocent blood and bloodguilt also turn out to be central to David's reign. This is seen in a surprising way in David's killing of Uriah, but also in the subsequent deaths of his sons, Amnon and Absalom, his general, Amasa, and even in David's encounters with Shimei. The problem rears its head again when the innocent blood of the Gibeonites shed by Saul comes back to haunt David's kingdom. Finally, the problem reappears when Solomon succeeds David and orchestrates the executions of Joab and Shimei, and the exile of Abiathar. Attending carefully to the text and drawing extensively on previous biblical scholarship, David J. Shepherd suggests that innocent blood is not only a pre-eminent concern of David, and his story in Samuel and 1 Kings, but also shapes the entirety of David's history.
