Reproductie Portret van Nicola Matteis C1640–1714 - Sir Godfrey Kneller – Boeiende introductie Het portret van Nicola Matteis, gemaakt door Sir Godfrey Kneller, is een iconisch werk uit het begin van de 18e eeuw dat de elegantie en verfijning van de Britse kunst uit die periode belichaamt. Dit schilderij, dat de beroemde violist en componist voorstelt, getuigt niet alleen van het talent van de kunstenaar, maar ook van het belang van muziek in de samenleving van die tijd. Via deze kunstdruk weerspiegelt het werk een tijdperk waarin muziek en beeldende kunst verweven waren, wat leidde tot een rijke en boeiende dialoog. De zelfverzekerde houding van Matteis, evenals de keuze van kleuren en texturen, boeien de kijker en nodigen uit om onder te dompelen in de wereld van de barokke kunst. Stijl en uniekheid van het werk Het werk van Kneller onderscheidt zich door zijn karakteristieke stijl, die realisme en idealisering combineert. In het portret van Nicola Matteis gebruikt de schilder een palet van warme en heldere kleuren die de levendigheid van het personage versterken. Het licht, vakkundig georkestreerd, benadrukt de details van het kostuum en het expressieve gezicht van de musicus, en onthult zijn charismatische persoonlijkheid. Kneller beheerst ook de kunst van de plooival, waardoor de stoffen bijna tastbaar worden, wat het geheel een tactiele dimensie geeft. De compositie, evenwichtig en harmonieus, getuigt van een onmiskenbare technische beheersing, terwijl het een intieme band tussen het onderwerp en de kijker suggereert. Dit portret is zo een viering van het individu, maar ook een reflectie van de esthetische waarden van zijn tijd. De kunstenaar en zijn invloed Sir Godfrey Kneller, geboren in Duitsland en genaturaliseerd tot Brits onderdaan, is een van de meest invloedrijke portretschilders van zijn tijd. Zijn innovatieve aanpak en zijn scherpzinnige gevoel voor compositie hebben hem geholpen naam te maken in de kunstwereld. Kneller wist de geest van zijn tijd vast te leggen en positioneerde zich als de officiële schilder van het Engelse hof. Zijn portretten beperken zich niet tot het afbeelden van historische figuren of aristocraten; ze vertellen verhalen, roepen emoties op en onthullen persoonlijkheden. De kunstenaar heeft ook vele tijdgenoten en opvolgers beïnvloed, en stelde een kwaliteitsstandaard vastShipping Notes

Happy it is unflavored
Flavor Name: Unflavored, Size: 1.46 Pound (Pack of 1)
I was worried about the taste based on some of the reviews. I tried it in my coffee, and I'm glad I did it that way. I keep coffee in the fridge, so that is what I mixed with one tablespoon of this. I use half and half and no sugar. I tasted it. It tastes like burnt coffee. Not a bad thing...thats just what the taste it added. I decided to see what would happen if I added a splash of a flavored creamer. The taste went away instantly. Hope this helps someone!

Purchase or perish.

I don't think Mike can produce anything below 5 stars. In his recent Christmas episode on the Naked Bible Podcast I was a bit wary of listening to it. I realize this is a review of his book here, but let me make my point. The problem with not wanting to listen to his Christmas episode is that I don't really care if Christmas was/is a pagan holiday. So, honestly, it wasn't appealing to me. Somehow I ended up listening to it, and I'm telling you the amount of information he crammed in there was FASCINATING. I'm not kidding. I was so tired of hearing that subject (because I've been born and raised into Christianity), but Mike and Trey did their thing and it had me on the edge of my metaphorical seat the entire time. If you listen to that episode (Naked Bible Episode 195) you'll see exactly what I'm talking about. And what's the point of all that I just said? It's that Mike doesn't do anything half way. All that he puts out is serious work that is worthy of much consideration. No Hillary v. Trump fact checking here (though I'm sure he'd encourage you to research what he's saying). The point is, however, that not everyone has the training that he or his contemporaries have. And THAT is exactly why it is paramount that we rely upon scholars who have said extensive training.
I challenge you with this (something I've challenged myself to accept): You essentially know nothing about the Bible if you don't have not just Heiser's background, but other scholars such as John H. Walton. There are many to list, but Walton would be a good companion to list next to Heiser. If you're the lay-person, do yourself a favor and pick up this work, or The Unseen Realm (or both!) and any of Walton's work. Open up your mind and challenge yourself to realize that unless you are incredibly familiar with the Ancient Near East's way of life and thought processes, then it's highly likely that you don't actually understand what is going on when you read the Bible.
Enter "The Bible Unfiltered."
Considerations for the seminary student:
This is a great book for those who need a quick reference on a particular subject. Heiser's name is well known, and thus to reference this book in one's papers, even for a one-liner, is to reference legitimate scholarship. I'm not advocating that one does one's entire paper off of just one chapter from this book, but my point is more-so that with Heiser's reputation it will be known that you're not quoting Joe Scholar who earned his PhD in I Do What I Want. If you know Mike then you know that he's done a lot of work to present to you CONTEXTUAL research on any given listed topic. For that alone the price is worth it (though it undoubtedly cost him more to do the research that it does for us to purchase the book).
Considerations for the lay-person:
1. On p. 7, Heiser says, "If Bible study doesn't seem like work to you, you aren't really doing it." Yes, that's harsh, but so was Phinehas, Peter, Paul, and Jesus. (Even Bonhoeffer was harsh in his "The Cost of Discipleship")! Over and over again Heiser says on his podcast that Bible reading is not actually Bible STUDY (not yelling, I just don't have italics in this comment box).
2. This book is great for having a quick reference for subjects. You do not have to read the book in order to understand the content of any given chapter. I use this book to help direct me to other scriptures that I can't seem to remember. Here, Heiser treats topics with brevity, yet with depth at the same time--depth that stems from years of immersing hisself in the original cultural context, the surrounding culture's contexts, and original languages of the Bible. In other words, this book will act, for the lay person, as an appetizer that gets you excited for the full meal and subsequently spark a desire within you to finally take seriously contextual Bible study. If you've never read Heiser's stuff before, this is a great place for you to get introduced to his work. From here I'd recommend getting The Unseen Realm, and then Reversing Hermon. Follow all his other works at drmsh.com, nakedbiblepodcast.com, and moreunseenrealm.com (I'm not getting paid to say all of this).
Considerations for the scholar:
Rid yourself of your presuppositions, get with the times, and adopt the supernatural worldview of the Bible's authors, because yours isn't supernatural enough. (Can that be considered speaking the truth in love?...)
(Pictures won't rotate for some reason. Sorry!). My hand on the book next to the Schuyler Bible shows the size of the book.

Content is better than the title!
Format: Paperback
The best quality of Heiser as a scholar/writer in my opinion is that he appreciates the academy but does not acquiesce to its influence. This is seen most in his correct interpretation of the identity of the sons of God in Gen 6 and the identity of Satan in Is 14 and Ez 28 etc. which were long abandoned and scorned by the academy.
All 60 articles are well written with clarity and brevity!
