half-brother: Encyclopedia II - Saint James the Just - Brother, half-brother, step-brother or cousin of Jesus

To many dispassionate outsiders, the number of the Jameses in the immediate circle of Jesus seems to have been multiplied, and Jerome's perhaps inadvertent remark, "Many indeed are called James" has a disarming frankness. The Catholic Encyclopedia (1910) divides the New Testament references to "James" among five separate personages [1], separating apart even a "James, the brother of Jude", by testimony of the Epistle of Jude 1:1, and remarking "Most Catholic commentators identify Jude with the 'Judas Jacobi', the 'brother of Ja ...

half-brother: Encyclopedia - Biblical references to incest

In the Tanakh, nearly all incidental Biblical references to incest occur in the Torah, especially in Genesis (Bereishit), prior to the establishment of Jewish law as described in Leviticus. A few books contain narratives describing the circumstances of particular instances of sexual intercourse among family members, which may be construed as incest and/or endogamy. Jewish law does not explicitly forbid cousins from marrying, but it does prohibit sexual relations with in-laws, aunts but not uncles (Lev 18: 6 ...

half-brother: Encyclopedia - Athelstan of England

Athelstan or Æþelstan (c. 895–October 27, 939) was the King of England from 924 to 939. He was the son of King Edward the Elder, and nephew of Æthelflæd of Mercia. His reign is frequently overlooked, with much focus going to Alfred before him, and Edgar after. However, his reign was of fundamental importance to political developments in the 10th century. Athelstan of England - Sources. The Anglo-Saxon Chronicle, which was so vocal during the reign of Alfred and Edward, falls into relativ ...

half-brother: Encyclopedia II - Athelstan of England - Sources

The Anglo-Saxon Chronicle, which was so vocal during the reign of Alfred and Edward the Elder, falls into relative silence during Athelstan's reign. A few references tell us of his military campaigns, the longest entry by far being a poem about the Battle of Brunanburh. Other narrative sources from across Europe, though, provide us with more information. The Annals of Flodoard contain several references to Athelstan's dealing with the rulers of west and east Francia, as does the Chronicle of Nantes. It is William of Malmesbury, ...

half-brother: Encyclopedia II - Prince Edmund Blackadder - Battle of Bosworth Field

There is no contemporaneous account of Prince Edmund's life until 21 August 1485. His first appearance on record seems to have been at a feast on the eve of the Battle of Bosworth Field. There King Richard III of England (cf. Peter Cook) gathered his supporters to make war against Henry Tudor. Lord Edmund Plantagenet, as he then was, arrived in the company of his father the Duke of York and brother, Harry, Earl of March. However, when Edmund cheered for the King the latter had to enquire as to the former's identity. As his own father ...

half-brother: Encyclopedia II - Moab - History

Moab - Origins. The Moabites were likely pastoral nomads settling in the trans-Jordanian highlands. They may have been among the nomadic raiders referred to as habiru by the Egyptians. Whether they were among the nations referred to in the Ancient Egyptian language as Shutu or Shasu is a matter of some debate among scholars. The existence of Moab prior to the rise of the Israelite polity can be seen from the colossal statues erected at Luxor by Pharaoh Rameses II. On the base of the second statue in front of the northern pylon of Rameses' temple, Mu'ab is listed among a series of n ...

half-brother: Encyclopedia II - Jake "The Snake" Roberts - Wrestling career

Roberts started his career in 1975 in the Georgia area and made his name in the NWA as part of Paul Ellering's heel stable, The Legion of Doom. He feuded with Ron Garvin in the 1980s over the NWA World Television Championship. One of the more memorable moments in his career was when he had Alice Cooper in his corner during WrestleMania III at 1987. Jake's WrestleMania III opponent, The Honky Tonk Man, brutally attacked Jake with a guitar on Jake's interview segment, The Snake Pit. In reality, The Honky Tonk Man's guitar shot to ...

Biblical references to incest - Genesis. Milcah, sister of Lot, married her uncle, Nahor: "Abram and Nahor both married. The name of Abram's wife was Sarai, and the name of Nahor's wife was Milcah; she was the daughter of Haran, the father of both Milcah and Iscah." (Gen 11:29; New International Version) While Lot and his two daughters are living in a mountain cave, the girls conspire to get Lot drunk so that he will impregnate them and thus preserve the family line.

The hour of the execution eventually arrived. Edmund, Percy and Baldrick were carried on wooden racks to their place of execution in the presence of an obviously excited crowd. Prince Harry suggested to Pursuivant that this must have serve as one of the most difficult parts of his job. The Witchsmeller affirmed it but actually appeared disinterested. Baldrick had a last minute cunning plan to suggest. But Prince Edmund told his servant to "fuck off". He had his o ...

According to the introduction many were the tales told of the Black Adder and his faithful henchmen Lord Percy Percy and Baldrick, son of Robin the Dung-Gatherer. However the last and most exciting part would unfold in 1498. On Saint Juniper's Day, in early January 1498, King Richard IV followed tradition in lavishing new honours upon his kinfolk. He started by giving a short speech: " Saint Juniper once said, "By his loins shall ye know him and by the length of his rod shall he be measured." The length of my rod is a mystery t ...

half-brother: Encyclopedia II - Roman Empire - The End of the Western Empire 395–476

The year 476 AD is generally accepted as the end of the Western Roman Empire. In that year, Odoacer deposed his puppet Romulus Augustus (475–476), and for the first time did not bother to induct a successor, choosing instead to rule as a representative of the Eastern Emperor (although Julius Nepos, the emperor deposed by Romulus Augustulus, continued to rule Illyricum until his death in 480, at which point Odoacer annexed this remant of the Western Empire to his Italian kingdom). The last Emperor who ruled over the whole Empire from Rome, ...

Several states claiming to be the Roman Empire's successor arose, before as well as after the fall of Constantinople to the Ottoman Turks in 1453. The Holy Roman Empire, an attempt to resurrect the Empire in the West, was established in 800 when Pope Leo III crowned Charlemagne as Roman Emperor on Christmas Day, though the empire and the imperial office did not become formalized for some decades. After the fall of Constantinople, the Russian Empire, as inheritor of the Byzantine Empire's Orthodox Christian tradition, counted itself as the th ...

While awaiting execution, Edmund and his two companions had their heads shaved. Each prisoner was attached to a ball and chain. Their attempts to bribe the guards in order for them to allow their escape failed - the guards had apparently been approached by many prisoners in this way and were unbribeable. Prior to his execution Edmund was visited by his mother and wife. At eleven Leia was apparently too young to feel concern over the event of being about to become a widow. She thought her bald husband looked funny. Leia informed the "b ...

The Witchsmeller apparently arrived at court before Prince Edmund did. Pursuivant attempted to explain his role to Prince Harry. He had the word Good written on one of his hands and the word evil on the other hand. He then claimed to have two functions. First to protect the good. At this point the "good" hand opened to reveal a white egg]. His second stated function was to crush the evil. He opened the "evil" hand to reveal a brown egg. Asking Harry to watch, Pursuivant then crushed both eggs. Harry claimed to have found the demonstration fa ...

An angry Edmund confronted Lord Percy over this decision. Remarking that "Honestly, Percy, I bet you are just the sort of person who thinks that sticking your finger up a sheep's bottom on Good Friday will make you fertile!" Baldrick commented that this was only true for Easter Monday. A disgusted Prince requested to be reminded not to shake hands with Baldrick during religious festivals. Perhaps more to the point, Edmund wanted to know who the Witchsmeller Pursuivant was. Baldrick did not know, but suggested the Mistress Scott ...

Nothing is known about the activities of Edmund for the following three years. However this period of presumably peaceful existence would soon come to an end.
