Porfyratos) of Thanasis Fotiou's comprehensive study on the German Lieutenant during World War II. The author's research reveals previously unknown aspects of Schubert's life and his actions as an officer, including the murder and torture of civilians, and the looting and burning of homes. Fritz Schubert, born in 1897, joined the German Forces in 1914 and concluded his service in Turkey, where he settled and married. By 1934, he had joined the National Socialist Party, influenced by Nazi ideology and propaganda. Fluent in several languages, he trained at the School of Interpreters under the reserve army's administration, attaining the rank of Unteroffizier. Hitler intended for Crete to play a significant role in the Middle East and Egypt due to its strategic oil reserves. In 1947, a special commissioner's report on Schubert's hunting squad stated, 'They murdered, they tortured in the most brutal ways numerous civilians, they looted and burned many homes. Generally, the arrival of Schubert's gang signaled unrelenting plunder, marked by tears, pain, and bloodshed.' Learn more about your ad choices.

Revelation Class 13 – The Woman and the Beasts 05 February 2025 Revelation, Chapter Twelve - Fourteen    Patrick Henry Reardon, Revelation: A Liturgical Prophecy (Yonkers, NY: St. Vladimir's Seminary Press, 2018), 70–78. Chapter Twelve … Nonetheless, this is not simply a description of the Lord's nativity. The Woman in the vision is the mother of Jesus, but she is more; she is also the Church, which gives birth to Christ in the world. The sufferings and persecution of the Church are described as birth pangs (cf. Jn 16:21–22). The serpent, of course, is the ancient dragon that is the enemy of our race, the one who seduced the first woman in the garden. … Chapter Thirteen Up till now we have seen two beasts, one of them from the underworld (Chapter 11) and the other from the heavens (Chapters 12). Two more beasts will appear in the present chapter, one of them from the sea (verse 1), who also has seven heads and ten horns (cf. 12:3), and one from the land (verse 11). …  Far more than ourselves, one fears, the early Christians were aware of the power of evil in the world. They spoke of it frequently in personified forms that are difficult to interpret literally. And the Christians described their relationship to this evil as one of warfare. … Now we come to the beast arising out of the earth, a parody of Christ in the sense that he faintly resembles a lamb (verse 11). Performing great signs and bringing fire down from heaven (verse 13), he is also a parody of the two witnesses in Chapter 11; in this respect he resembles the magicians of Egypt. The Gospels, we recall, have several warnings against false christs and false prophets, who will work wonders. … Interpreters of the sacred text, however, have been most partial to the Hebrew form of the name, “Nero Caesar,” which does, in fact, add up to exactly the number six hundred and sixty-six. There are other possibilities, but this explanation seems the most compelling. The number was thus a reference to Nero, the first Roman emperor who ever undertook the persecution of the Christian Church. Chapter Fourteen … On the image of harvest as judgment, see Joel 4:13–14 (3:9–14). The Son of Man on the cloud is, of course, from the Book of Daniel, an image that Jesus interprets of Himself in each of the Synoptic Gospels. The rising pool of blood becomes a kind of Red Sea. Indeed, the following chapter will be full of imagery from the Book of Exodus. plagues, the cloud of the divine presence, the tent of testimony, Moses, the crossing of the Red Sea, and the destruction of the pursuers.

Yet, instead of focusing on this tragedy, right-wing figures like Charlie Kirk and Christopher Rufo criticize sign language interpreters during emergency broadcasts, labeling them as “woke.” The panel agrees this rhetoric is part of a larger conservative effort to dehumanize marginalized groups, including the disabled.The conversation underscores how such attacks aim to strip minorities of visibility and support while sowing division. The panelists emphasized the importance of American Sign Language (ASL) as a complete, nuanced language essential for the Deaf community. They condemn the right's targeting of interpreters, likening it to fascist tactics used historically to vilify and control minority groups. This dehumanization fosters tribalism, allowing conservatives to rally followers around a shared hatred of the “other.”The Non-Prophets, Episode 24.04.1 featuring Jimmy Jr. , Jonathan Roudabush, and AJBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-non-prophets--3254964/support.

In this episode we explain how the deity-of-Christ interpretation of John's Gospel is wrong. Three, Yea verily Four Keys to Understanding John's Gospel 1.       The Purpose statement of the author, John 20:30-31 “Now Jesus did many other signs in the presence of the disciples, which are not written in this book; 31 but these are written so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name.”   The original target audience of the Gospel of John was Israelites in the Diaspora. John wrote to convince and help them to believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God.  See more below.   2.      In John's Gospel, Jesus declares that he is a man who told the truth which he heard from God. John 8:40, “but now you seek to kill me, a man who has told you the truth that I heard from God.” Jesus differentiates himself from God. Jesus is a man, not a god-man, not one person of God who is incarnated in a human nature.  Jesus states that he is a human being, a man who declares the truth that heard from someone else, specifically, from God.    3.      In John's Gospel, Jesus declared that the Father is the only true God. John 17:1-3 “Father… this is eternal life, that they know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you sent. The God that was speaking and working in and through the man Jesus was the Father. Christology of John is agency, not incarnation.  Jesus as God's unique human son was sent by God and as such represented God, is to be regarded as the very presence of God (the Father) who sent him.   4.      John is an Israelite, writing to Israelites. He is not writing originally to Gentiles. a.      Metaphors, figurative language. John 10:6 (context is the thief vs. the shepherd), “This figure of speech Jesus used with them, but they did not understand what he was saying to them.”   John 16:25, "I have said these things to you in figures of speech.”   Come into the world, come down from heaven, “This is the bread that has come down from heaven” (6:50) “the bread I will give for the life of the world is my flesh.” (Joh 6:51) Jesus' flesh literally descended from heaven?   “The baptism of John, was it from heaven or from man” (Mar 11:30) means “Was John's baptism of heavenly or of human origin?”  (Mar 11:30) b.      “Jews” means “Judeans”. “He came to his own, but his own received him not”. Samaritans, and Israelites in Galilee and Perea accepted him. c.      “world” does not mean planet earth, but the Israelite world. The world that God loved (John 3:16), is Israel.   Resources: In the Gospel of John the “Jews” are Judeans, Not All “Jews” https://landandbible.blogspot.com/2022/02/in-gospel-of-john-jews-are-judeans-not.html   The “Greeks” in John's Gospel are Greek Speaking Israelites, not Gentiles https://landandbible.blogspot.com/2022/03/the-greeks-hellenists-in-gospel-of-john.html What About John 1:1? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fw44JRTIiV0

This show has been flagged as Clean by the host. Crafting Interpreter Hello, this is iota speaking. Today I would like to talk about the book "Crafting Interpreters" by Robert Nystrom. I have a passion for interpreters and compilers for a long time, and always like to write one. But I never succeed. I read a lot of books about interpreters and compilers but never able to finish it. Crafting Interpreters is the first book I read cover to cover, and understand it, and I am able to follow through all the coding and build an interpreter as well as a compiler. It is amazing! The first half of the book is to build a tree-walking interpreter in Java. The 2nd half of the book is to build a bytecode compiler in C. Both of them are for a programming language the author called lox. L-O-X. The book is smart because it is based on generic Java and C code, and does not specify any IDE or make file to use. You will have to figure out that yourself. That may sound like a hurdle but in fact it is a blessing. That makes the code in the book very portable. The author has a way to explain compiler concepts in an interesting way. The bytecode compiler in the 2nd half of the book implements the following features: virtual machine, closure, class and methods, garbage collector, etc. The book cover is already very revealing. It is basically a high-level view of the different passes and types of code generation. You can buy the book in different places, both physical copy or ebook. However, the book is also available for free at craftinginterpreters.com. I would say this book is a labour of love by the author. Highly recommended. iota signing off Provide feedback on this episode.

Navigating cultural differences while building a company culture or consistent brand voice can be challenging, but it is not insurmountable, says Carole Copeland Thomas, a recent podcast guest on The Global Marketing Show (episode 131), especially with support from knowledgeable experts and a willingness to learn.  Carole is founder of C. Thomas & Associates, a full-service speaking, training, & consulting firm specializing in multiculturalism, diversity, and women's issues (http://www.tellcarole.com/). In this episode, she outlines how culture – and cultural differences – affect relationships, and she provides real-world advice on successfully navigating and incorporating those differences into local and larger communities.  Carole has found that the definition of “culture” can be nebulous; when asked, we all instantly know what it means, but it's hard to define. By her description, the concept encompasses the social norms, behaviors, knowledge, arts, beliefs, customs, and habits of a group of people. As an expert in diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) for over 40 years, she likes to explain it using the “Iceberg Model of Culture” developed by Edward T. Hall in 1976.   The top of the cultural iceberg stays visible to everyone. It contains the community's fine arts, literature, music, food, games, and dress. People outside the culture see these superficial elements.  The bottom of the iceberg, the biggest part of any culture, hides beneath the surface and influences less quantifiable aspects like:  Eye Contact: In the US, children learn the importance of direct eye contact whereas in Japan, children are taught the opposite, that direct eye contact is considered rude, aggressive, and disrespectful.   Time: Some cultures are strict about time and others allow for more flexibility. In Germany and Denmark, for example, meetings start at the appointed time, yet in Japan and China, it's customary to arrive 15 to 30 minutes early. In Latin American and Latin European countries, flexibility is more common.  Personal Space: People have varying levels of comfort with touching, standing close together, and holding hands with friends. In North America people typically hold each other at “arm's length,” while Europeans tend toward “wrist length” and those in the Middle East prefer “elbow length.”  Gestures: In India, people will shake or “bobble” their head to mean “I hear you” or “I don't know,” or to say “yes” or “no.” The closest conversational response in the US would be simply “hmmm.”   The examples above illustrate only a small number of all the cultural components that might affect company culture and co-worker relationships. Other areas of potential contention commonly include:  Approaches to problem solving  Notions of leadership  Tempo of work  Patterns of group decision-making  Status mobility  Ideas about logic and validity  Conversational patterns  Typically, people understand their own cultural norms yet underestimate how much cultural differences can affect relationships. Listen to the full episode for additional details on these real-world culture-clash situations Carole has managed.  In one instance, a client company's employee hailed from an island in the Caribbean where non-intimate physical contact was acceptable in the workplace, among all genders. Issues arose when others misconstrued the behavior as inappropriate. By helping the team understand the employee's cultural context and setting clear expectations, Carole was able to restore respectful, solid working relationships and a unified company culture.  In another instance, a young manager was hired to lead a team of about 25 people, including a dozen employees older than the new hire. Unbeknownst to the new manager, the older Black members of the team expected the manager to address them as “Mr.” or “Ms.” to show respect for the age difference. Resentment within the team grew, until Carole and the manager uncovered the issue and found appropriate ways for the manager to address the workers. As Carole puts it: in some cultures, age commands respect and in others, it's about one's status or position. Navigating through this can be difficult.  And even with her expertise in cultural issues, Carole has encountered cultural challenges in her personal life. When she became a grandmother, she wanted a special name instead of being called "grandma" like her mother. Since she frequently travels to Kenya, Carole decided she liked “nyanya,” Swahili for “grandma.” Only after years of her granddaughters calling her nyanya did she learn that the familiar name for grandma in Swahili is actually “bibi.” Throughout, her granddaughters were actually using the formal term for "grandmother,” which is also Swahili for "tomato"!  Solutions  In every cross-cultural situation, Carole first aims to build rapport and alignment. She assesses the manager's awareness and willingness to improve relationships and if she can work with the individual, she collaborates with them to enhance the team, starting with fundamentals such as:  Developing rapport individually with each team member. That doesn't mean “getting into that person's business”; she simply finds it beneficial to get to know each person on an individual and professional basis. Carole recommends scheduling time with people for coffee, lunch, or a conversation, with no set agenda. Even if there are 40 people on the team, it is always worth the time to meet with each person.  Reflecting upon the strengths and weaknesses of the team to understand what people contribute. Consider creating a SWOT analysis of personalities to get a bigger picture of the group's dynamics.  Communicating the vision that rallies the team to work together toward shared goals. A shared vision unites people as they focus on achievements together, depend on each other for diverse contributions, and celebrate as they reach milestones.  Ultimately, Carole's best advice for working cross-culturally starts with you:  Learn about your own culture. Raise your awareness about your native culture. We aren't often aware of the way we do things naturally, without thinking, and how those instincts impact the ways in which we approach every situation. Culture is most invisible to its own participants – just consider any stand-up comedian's material about “Americans”!  Keep trying. Network with others to keep learning. Contact colleagues, ask for introductions at local embassies, companies, or associations to get tips about cultural differences and how to navigate them. Interpreters are a great resource for facilitating conversations and often serve as a cultural conduit to assist with communication beyond words, in real-time.  Ask for forgiveness!

4 Reasons Why Premillennial Theology Matters

Dr. Alan Kurschner gave four reasons why holding to the premillennial view is important and, thus, why the millennial debate is significant. Premillennialism teaches that at Jesus's second coming, he will deliver the righteous and judge the ungodly. Then, the righteous will enter into a period—the millennium—of peace and righteousness, during which Jesus establishes on earth his physical reign over all nations, including a restored nation of Israel that recognizes him as the Messiah. All nations will worship Jesus as King and Lord. The future millennium will be characterized socially, politically, ethnically, and spiritually. This is why Christians pray to the Father, "May your kingdom come." Dr. Kurschner believes premillennialism is the correct biblical view because the narrative in Revelation 19:11–20:3 indicates this. Traditionally, interpreters have mistakenly started the millennial debate in chapter 20. But the narrative context begins before Revelation 20. There is a cause-and-effect action where the victory of Jesus at the battle of Armageddon will cause the defeat of the three enemies of God: the beast (i.e., Antichrist), the false prophet, and Satan. The passage states that Satan's immediate punishment will be his binding in the abyss for 1,000 years (i.e. the millennium). In short, since Jesus' battle victory occurs during his future second coming, the binding of Satan must begin at the second coming. Interpreters who approach Bible prophecy with frameworks that preclude a future reality of key prophecies either collapse biblical prophecies as having already happened in the past (preterism) or throughout church history (historicism) or make them all merely ideas (idealism). Premillennialism takes the Bible's warnings seriously as they relate to the future intervention of God's Son with humankind at the end of the age. First, Satan is not bound during the church age (contra Amillennialism), but instead, he is “a roaring lion . . . on the prowl looking for someone to devour” (1 Pet 5:8). Premillennialism takes seriously the spiritual battle that the Bible portrays within the spirit world, significantly as it will escalate just before Christ returns. We are also not living in the blessed millennial age. We are living in a wicked age where injustice, immorality, and no fear of God dominate this world. We long for the day when our righteous King returns to defeat his enemies and “break them with an iron scepter; [and]  smash them like a potter's jar!'” Second, premillennialism rightly takes into consideration the complex nature of God's dealings with his people. Amillennialism, on the other hand, views the return of Christ as an overly simple event, monochromatically. That is, there is no emphasis on the events leading up to the return of Christ; basically, in their schema, the return of Christ will happen in a single day, and we will all be suddenly ushered into the eternal state. This is not what the Bible depicts. Instead, the premillennial view rightly views a complex-comprehensive whole in which God will fulfill his redemptive purposes through stages: Antichrist's great tribulation, eschatological suffering of the church and Israel, resurrection, rapture, the day of the Lord's wrath (itself a complex series of events), salvation of Israel, new heavens and earth, the complex social, ethnic, political, material aspects of the millennium, Satan's final defeat—then finally the eternal state. Third, premillennialism does not believe that the world will increasingly get better before Christ returns (contra postmillennialism, Pat Robertson, Gary DeMar, et al.). There are many postmillennial churches that are misleading God's people teaching that God will use politics as a means to better this world and prepare the world for the gospel. Premillennialism teaches, instead, that the Bible shows the world will increasingly become more wicked before Christ returns,
