| |  |  |  | Sodom: Encyclopedia II - Jebusite - Ethnic OriginThe Bible is the only surviving source that uses the term Jebusite to describe the pre-Israelite inhabitants of Jerusalem. It identifies them in the Table of Nations as belonging to a Canaanite tribe. The book of Genesis (10:15-19) gives the cultural affiliations of the Jebusites, related to the city of Sidon, expressed in terms of genealogy:
"Canaan became the father of Sidon his first-born, and Heth, and the Jebusites, the Amorites, the Girgashites, the Hivites, the Arkites, the Sinites, the Arvadites, the Zemarites, and the H ...

|  |  |  | Sodom: Encyclopedia II - Lech-Lecha - Summary
Lech-Lecha - Abram and Sarai.
God directed Abram to leave his home. Abram obeyed, emigrating with his entire household and Lot, his brother's son, to the land of Canaan. There, God appeared to Abram and promised that the land would become the property of his descendants.
A famine forced Abram to leave the country and go to Egypt. The King of Egypt took possession of the beautiful Sarai (whom Abram represented as his sister; she was in fact his half-sister). God smote the King with a disease, which the King ...

|  |  |  | Sodom: Encyclopedia II - Hittites in the Bible - Exodus and the conquest of CanaanThis period is conjectured to start sometime after 1800 BC and end sometime before 1000 BC. In this period (in which can be included the promise made to Abraham, centuries earlier, and its recall by Nehemias half a millennium later), the Hittites are mentioned about a dozen times as part of an almost fixed formula that lists the "seven nations greater and mightier than [the Hebrews]" whose lands will be eventually conquered. Five other "major nations" are mentioned in almost all instances of the formula: Canaanites, Amorites, Hivites, Jebusi ...

|  |  |  | Sodom: Encyclopedia II - Christopher Marlowe - The Marlowe legendAs with other writers of the period, such as Shakespeare, little is known about Marlowe. Most of the evidence is legal records and other official documents that tell us little about him. This hasn't stopped writers of both fiction and non-fiction speculating about his activities and character. Marlowe has often been regarded as a spy, a brawler, a heretic, and a homosexual. The evidence for some of these claims is slight. The bare facts of Marlowe's life have been embellished by many writers into colourful, and often fanciful, narratives of the Elizabethan underworld.

This combined with Capcom's decision to change some of the storyline after the games have been released has made the Street Fighter II story confusing.
Each game in the series introduced more characters from Street Fighter II. Characters were also introduced from other games such as Final Fight and the original Street Fighter.

The phrase rendered "unnatural desire" is literally translated "strange flesh," but it is not entirely clear what it refers to. The ESV translators supply one plausible paraphrase in making th ...

|  |  |  | Sodom: Encyclopedia II - Agent Orange - Use in VietnamDuring the Vietnam War, the US instituted a massive herbicidal program that ran from 1961 through 1971. The aim of the program was two-fold, one to destroy the "cover" provided by the jungle-like forest, and another to deny food to the enemy.
A variety of chemicals, fifteen in total, were tested or used operationally during this program. The primary broad-leaf herbicides sprayed during the "testing" phase of the program between 1962 and 1964 were Agent Orange, Agent Purple and Agent White. The chemicals themselves had no color, the na ...

|  |  |  | Sodom: Encyclopedia II - Abraham - Abraham in JudaismThe account of his life is found in the Book of Genesis, beginning in Chapter 11, at the close of a genealogy of the sons of Shem (which includes among its members Eber, the eponym of the Hebrews).
His father Terah came from Ur of the Chaldees, popularly identified only since 1927 (thanks to Sir Charles Woolley) with the ancient city in southern Mesopotamia which was under the rule of the Chaldeans — although Josephus, Islamic tradition and Jewish authorities like Maimonides all concur that Ur-Of-The-Khaldis was in Northern Mesopota ...

|  |  |  | Sodom: Encyclopedia II - Elyon - Biblical use
Elyon - Mundane use.
The term also has mundane uses, being applied to a basket in Genesis 40.17, a chamber in Ezekiel 42.5 and others.
Elyon - Divine Use.
The compound name Ēl ‘Elyōn 'God Most High' occurs in Genesis 14.18–19 as the god whose priest was Melchizedek king of Salem. The form appears again almost immediately in verse 22, used by Abraham in an oath to the King of Sodom. In this verse the name of God also occurs in apposition to Ēl ‘Elyōn in the Masoretic text but is absent in the Samaritan version, in the Sep ...
