The Tellings contains two interesting and different story arcs that merge somewhat towards the end. The first "telling" is about Lucifer, his Satanic Majesty, while in Hell, he tells all the world's demons about his hellish history. Lucifer also tells of his wish to have a second Hell in a valley town that will be "cleansed" of its human residents, about which they know nothing.

The Abrahamic Land Promise in Deuteronomy
Deuteronomy as a Meta-Hermeneutic to Understand the Land Promise in the Abrahamic Covenant
2026
EN
This book examines the land promise in the Abrahamic covenant as described in Deuteronomy. Most approaches to this topic begin with one's theological-eschatological system (e.g., dispensationalism, covenantalism), then work backward to the land. This approach allows the land to be seen considering one's eschatological or theological system, which results in a wide divergence in which the land is viewed as literal, allegorical, typological, or figurative. This also allows one's approach to ...
