Again and again in the Pentateuch, the psalms, the prophets, and the subsequent writings which derive from them, the claim is made that the creator of the entire universe has chosen to live uniquely on a small ridge called Mount Zion, near the eastern edge of the Judean hill-country.

The fact that Assyria, Egypt, Babylon, Persia, Greece, Egypt again, Syria and now Rome had made explicit mockery of the idea did not shake this conviction, but only intensified it. This was what Jewish monotheism looked like on the ground.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/7318</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The biggest things are often the easiest to do because there is so little competition. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57489]]></link><description><![CDATA[The biggest things are often the easiest to do because there is so little competition.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57489</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[No organization is stronger than the quality of its leadership, or ever extends its constituency far beyond the degree to ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24473]]></link><description><![CDATA[No organization is stronger than the quality of its leadership, or ever extends its constituency far beyond the degree to which its leadership is representative. -Edgar Powell.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/24473</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Excess of sorrow laughs, excess of joy weeps. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14448]]></link><description><![CDATA[Excess of sorrow laughs, excess of joy weeps.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/14448</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The proof of the pudding is in the eating. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13183]]></link><description><![CDATA[The proof of the pudding is in the eating.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/13183</guid></item></channel></rss>
