1.2 PepsiCo was created in 1989 by pharmacist Caleb Bradham. It was originally named “Brads Drink” but because of the pepsin and kola nut ingredients Bradham decided it would be better to call it Pepsi-Cola. In 1910 Pepsi franchised to 24 states and sold over 100,000 gallons of their syrup annually. In 1923 Bradham sold the trademark to Craven’s Holding Corporation, who shortly after sold it to a New York stockbroker named Roy C. Megargel. Within a few years the company was earning over a millions
Christians of Jerusalem. It was no tomb of Adam or Jesus, nor was it the place where their God sacrificed himself for his people. The fall of the Nea late in the Byzantine period accompanied the demise of Christianity in Jerusalem, at least for this time period. The kinetic aspect of the Nea is demonstrated by its place in the history of Jerusalem. It was built late in the Byzantine period, then looted and damaged by the Persians and their Jewish allies less than a century after. The Persians and
The Hebrew Exiles in Babylon When Jerusalem fell to the conquering Babylonians in 587 BC, most of what was important to the Hebrew people was gone. They lost their holy city, the Temple was destroyed, and the Davidic monarchy ended (Beasley 221). Following the destruction of Jerusalem, the Babylonian king, Nebuchadrezzar, deported most of the population to other cities, including Babylon. These exiles remained there for about fifty years until the Persian forces, under king Cyrus, took the city
two sourcs is the amount of detail they go into on different aspects of the Exile. The Biblical reading mentions King Nebuchadnezzar and his capture of King Zedekiah, the efforts of General Nebuzaradan and his detailed destruction and pillaging of Jerusalem and the Temple, the capturing and execution of Judah’s chief officers and priests, Judah’s revolt against Gedaliah and fleeing to Egypt, and the benevolence King Evil-merodach of Babylon demonstrated towards Jehoiachin.

The Crusades were a number of military expeditions by Europeans of the Christian faith attempting to recover the Holy Land, Jerusalem, which was then controlled by the powerful Muslim Empire. In his book People of The First Crusade, Michael Foss an independent historian tells the story of the first Crusade in vivid detail illustrating the motives behind this historic event, and what had really occurred towards the end of the eleventh century. The Christian lands of Western Europe were slowly deteriorating
contains messages of divine judgment against Judah and Jerusalem, as well as against other nations. It addresses a rare concentration of references to central issues in the history of ancient Israel. Idolatry, violence, and deception abound in Judah when Zephaniah began prophesying. Zephaniah's prophesying made it clear that Yahweh would execute vengeance upon unrepentant wrongdoers. His adverse judgments would be visited not only upon Judah and Jerusalem, but also upon other peoples: the Philistines, Ammonites
Jerusalem, a city like none other, possesses holy religious sites and constant social conflict. It is the center of the Arab-Israeli conflict, with members of each group struggling to coexist with the other. 65 years have passed since the declaration of the State of Israel, yet the Arabs and Israelis have not come to terms on any sort of permanent peace agreement. Part of the struggle in Jerusalem, over the years, has been radical groups on each side taking the conflict to new heights. Jihadist organizations
Zechariah, His name means “God has remembered.” Through the names of his family, especially his, his father’s, and his grandfather’s, it can be made “God will remember his people and bless them in his determined time.” He was contemporary with Haggai in post-exile and functioned as priest and head of a Father’s house. He was prophesying to the people of Southern Judah to build the Temple. God showed him some visions to make them repent, and Zechariah prophesied that Jesus Christ who is going to reign the
The Palestinian and Israeli conflict can be resolved only if both countries agree to internationalize Jerusalem: this holy city is the home of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. The city has important religious connections with all three faiths; the Jews and the Christians see it as has a land of prophets and a promised land for all children of Abraham, the Christians see it also as the birthplace of Jesus, and the Muslim have the al Aqsa Intifada. This has been an on going war between Palestinians
Palestine and Jerusalem in 1905. Which can be very helpful because she uses the map to show the diversity of the city and relative heterogeneous nature of Jerusalem visually during the 20th century? In the first chapter, the author analyzes the newfound liberty that discovered by the subjects after the advent of the 1908 revolution.She defines how the people understood the revolution about al-Hurriyat (freedom) and compared it to the early Muslim period.

city of Jerusalem. (The Roman Empire – proudly polytheistic and secure in their belief that Rome, not a city in rural Judea, was the cultural center of the known world – most disliked these tenets as projecting a smug superiority at best, and at worst threatening the stability of the empire if, by some chance, they spread. ) While the Temple represented the core beliefs of Judaism that united the various decentralized Jewish cities and tribes,
One of the most compelling attributes about the Bible is that it is full of prophecy. Christ Himself fulfilled three hundred and fifty-one of the Old Testament prophecies about the Messiah. One in particular is the prophecy of the seventy years in Daniel 9:24-27. Here we look not only to the foretelling of events leading up to the crucifixion of Christ and to the future of today, but also into the authority of the authorship of God’s sovereignty. When we examine the prophecy given to Daniel by the
Testament period it reveals how God reestablished His nation. In 586 B.C., King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon had overthrown Judah, and the land was in ruins, and the people were in exile. Very little is known about the lives of the Jews after the fall of Jerusalem in 586.B.C. To console the people, Jeremiah writes to the captives telling them to go on with their lives (Jeremiah 29: 5 – 7). The exiled Jews established communities with homes, and businesses, and were allowed to follow their customs. Many of

in order to take back the land of Jerusalem from the Muslims, and also to protect the Catholic Church. The Crusades began when Pope Urban II stated that “...an accursed race utterly alienated from God … has invaded the lands of the Christians and depopulated them by the sword, plundering, and fire. Tear that land from the wicked race and subject it to yourselves,” in which he blames the Muslims for the loss of their holy land. Then, sea routes towards Jerusalem were closed due to Muslim conquests
the earliest years of God's chosen people, we can see that worship played quite a significant role in the everyday lives of the people. Until the temple in Jerusalem was built, there was no real establishment or unification of the people since their captivity to Egypt. Solomon, one of Israel's first few kings, built the Temple of Jerusalem. Solomon's Temple was believed to be the dwelling place of God. The Temple was a very complex structure, and because of its destruction there is no abundance

However, her early childhood life was not as easy as one would expect, given her success. Ada Yonath was born on June 22, 1939 in Jerusalem, Israel, then known as the British mandate of Palestine. She was the only child of an extremely poor family, and her family shared “a rented four-room apartment with two additional families and their children”(Ada E. Yonath- Facts). In fact, they
abortion. One of the worst affects is the emotional effects of it after it has bin done. Most women that a get an abortion get a disease called PAS. The causes for this stress disorder are really quite simple. The thing that has made the very existence of Post-Abortion-Syndrome debatable is the fact that it often does not surface until many years after the abortion. It is very common for a woman to say that she is fine about the whole thing, but later in live she finds herself engulfed in feelings of guilt
