Have you ever ventured into the intriguing domain of the Apocrypha within the inaugural edition of the 1560 Geneva Bible? A meticulously preserved treasury of ancient religious texts, it comprises a unique anthology of writings excluded from the Hebrew Bible but included in the Septuagint, offering a glimpse into the enigmatic world of antiquity. While not universally accepted as canonical, the Apocrypha yields profound insights into the human experience and matters of faith. The Apocrypha and the Geneva Bible (1560) are both significant entities in the realm of Christian literature and biblical scholarship. Here's a detailed description of each: Apocrypha: The term "Apocrypha" refers to a collection of ancient texts that are not included in the canonical Bible of most Protestant denominations but are part of the biblical canon of the Catholic and Eastern Orthodox Churches. These texts are considered by some to be of historical and religious value but are not considered divinely inspired Scripture by all religious traditions. The Apocrypha includes a diverse range of writings, including historical narratives, wisdom literature, and theological treatises, dating from the intertestamental period (roughly 300 BCE to 100 CE). Some of the most well-known books within the Apocrypha include: Tobit: A narrative about a pious Israelite named Tobit and his son Tobias, which contains elements of wisdom literature and angelic intervention. Judith: The story of a courageous Israelite widow named Judith who saves her people by seducing and beheading the Assyrian general Holofernes. Wisdom of Solomon: A philosophical and theological work attributed to King Solomon, which extols the virtues of wisdom and righteousness. Sirach (Ecclesiasticus): A collection of ethical teachings and maxims attributed to Jesus Ben Sirach, promoting practical wisdom and piety. 1 and 2 Maccabees: Historical accounts of the Maccabean revolt against Hellenistic oppression, detailing the exploits of the Jewish leader Judas Maccabeus and his brothers. These texts provide valuable insights into the beliefs, practices, and historical context of Second Temple Judaism and the early Christian era. Geneva Bible (1560): The Geneva Bible was one of the most influential English translations of the Bible during the Protestant Reformation. It was produced by English Protestant exiles who had fled to Geneva, Switzerland, during the reign of Queen Mary I of England, also known as "Bloody Mary" due to her persecution of Protestant dissenters. The Geneva Bible was first published in 1560 and quickly became popular among English-speaking Protestants for its accuracy, readability, and extensive study aids. Discover the secrets and marvels of this sacred text, which exerted an undeniable influence in its time, surpassing even Coverdale's Bible in popularity and inspiring luminaries such as William Shakespeare. As the first mechanically and serially printed Bible made directly available to the general public, its impact was profound. With its Calvinist origins, this Bible served as the primary text for English Protestantism in the 16th century. It was embraced by notable figures such as William Shakespeare, Oliver Cromwell and his soldiers (in the soldier's pocket Bible version), John Knox, John Donne, and others, and found its way to America through the Puritan pilgrims aboard the Mayflower.

The Southwyck Mall was the shopping hub in the South Toledo area during the 1980’s and 90’s. Kids visited Hobby Center Toys and Old Towne, families ate at Big Boy, Forum Cafe, Hot Sam’s, and Orange Julius. Many others pumped quarters into games at Red Baron Arcades, browsed music at Camelot or went to Lion Store, Lamson’s and Montgomery Ward. Gathering almost 400 vintage images, the original floor map and the history of every store through the 1980’s, author Chris Bores delivers another trip down memory lane with long lost histories of each business unearthed from the early days of Toledo’s historic Southwyck Mall.

One of the biggest questions of the financial crisis has not been answered until now: What happened at Lehman Brothers and why was it allowed to fail, with aftershocks that rocked the global economy? In this news-making, often astonishing book, a former Lehman Brothers Vice President gives us the straight answers—right from the belly of the beast. In A Colossal Failure of Common Sense, Larry McDonald, a Wall Street insider, reveals, the culture and unspoken rules of the game like no book has ever done. The book is couched in the very human story of Larry McDonald’s Horatio Alger-like rise from a Massachusetts “gateway to nowhere” housing project to the New York headquarters of Lehman Brothers, home of one of the world’s toughest trading floors.   We get a close-up view of the participants in the Lehman collapse, especially those who saw it coming with a helpless, angry certainty. We meet the Brahmins at the top, whose reckless, pedal-to-the-floor addiction to growth finally demolished the nation’ s oldest investment bank. The Wall Street we encounter here is a ruthless place, where brilliance, arrogance, ambition, greed, capacity for relentless toil, and other human traits combine in a potent mix that sometimes fuels prosperity but occasionally destroys it.   The full significance of the dissolution of Lehman Brothers remains to be measured. But this much is certain: it was a devastating blow to America’s—and the world’s—financial system. And it need not have happened. This is the story of why it did.
