The Jewish Trinity : Sabbath,Shekinah and Sanctuary 4.pdfJackieSparrow3
we may assume that God created the cosmos to be his great temple, in which he rested after his creative work. Nevertheless, his special revelatory presence did not fill the entire earth yet, since it was his intention that his human vice-regent, whom he installed in the garden sanctuary, would extend worldwide the boundaries of that sanctuary and of God’s presence. Adam, of course, disobeyed this mandate, so that humanity no longer enjoyed God’s presence in the little localized garden. Consequently, the entire earth became infected with sin and idolatry in a way it had not been previously before the fall, while yet in its still imperfect newly created state. Therefore, the various expressions about God being unable to inhabit earthly structures are best understood, at least in part, by realizing that the old order and sanctuary have been tainted with sin and must be cleansed and recreated before God’s Shekinah presence, formerly limited to heaven and the holy of holies, can dwell universally throughout creation

Beyond the Advance Presentation for By the Book 9John Rodzvilla
In June 2020, L.L. McKinney, a Black author of young adult novels, began the #publishingpaidme hashtag to create a discussion on how the publishing industry treats Black authors: “what they’re paid. What the marketing is. How the books are treated. How one Black book not reaching its parameters casts a shadow on all Black books and all Black authors, and that’s not the same for our white counterparts.” (Grady 2020) McKinney’s call resulted in an online discussion across 65,000 tweets between authors of all races and the creation of a Google spreadsheet that collected information on over 2,000 titles.
While the conversation was originally meant to discuss the ethical value of book publishing, it became an economic assessment by authors of how publishers treated authors of color and women authors without a full analysis of the data collected. This paper would present the data collected from relevant tweets and the Google database to show not only the range of advances among participating authors split out by their race, gender, sexual orientation and the genre of their work, but also the publishers’ treatment of their titles in terms of deal announcements and pre-pub attention in industry publications. The paper is based on a multi-year project of cleaning and evaluating the collected data to assess what it reveals about the habits and strategies of American publishers in acquiring and promoting titles from a diverse group of authors across the literary, non-fiction, children’s, mystery, romance, and SFF genres.

Techniques
• Tripling
To make what you say more
memorable, your points can be chunked in
threes.
Examples:
Our service is swift, efficient, and
professional.
What’s needed now is time, effort, and
money.

Techniques
• Machine-Gunning
Three points seem to be the most an
audience can remember.
Making it six, seven or eight will impress the
audience with the force of your overall
argument, even though they will forget some
of your points.

Techniques
• Machine-Gunning
Example:
It is cheaper, newer, faster, bigger, clearer,
safer AND better designed. WHAT MORE
CAN I SAY!
The list of points should be delivered at speed
with each point stressed to create a machine-
gun effect. Bang, Bang, Bang!
Add a powerful remark at the end.

• Build-ups
An effective way of emphasizing a point is to
present several connected pieces of
information which build up to a short and
simple conclusion.

Techniques
• Build-ups
Example:
As far as this contract in the Emirates is
concerned, we’re pretty tied up with a lot of
other projects at the moment, so there’s no
way we could meet their deadlines. We have
very little experience in this line of work,
anyway. And, to be honest, they’re not
prepared to pay us what we’d want ….
BASICALLY, its out of the question.

The last sentence is a summary of the
situation in a word or a phrase. It is delivered
after a short pause.
18. Advanced Presenting
Techniques
• Knock-downs
Example:
Of course, the experts said that a palm-top computer could
never succeed. They did market research which showed that
people would just see it as a gimmick. They said its memory
capacity would be too limited for serious business users. And
they did a feasibility study which showed that the keyboard
would be too small for even the fingers of a five-year old!
So, how come it sold more than a million units in the first year?
The presenter should pause before the final
knock-down?
19. Advanced Presenting
Techniques
• Simplification
General Rule:
The simpler what you say is, the more impact it wil
have.
Example:
Should we be thinking of expansion? No, that would
not be a good idea. Why wouldn’t it? Well, that should
be obvious. It’s much too risky.
Expansion? Not a good idea. Why? Obvious. Too
risky.

• Creating Rapport
Building up a good relationship or rapport with
your audience is important, especially in the
early stages of your presentation. Personality
plays a part, but some simple language
patterns help.
21. Advanced Presenting
Techniques
• Creating Rapport
1 Use the words we (all), us (all), our an ours as
much as possible.
Basically, we all share the same goal. And our
goals is increased profit.
2 Use question tags to push for agreement.
And we all know what that means, don’t we?
3 Use negative question forms to appeal to your
audience.
Haven’t we all had similar experiences at one
time or another?
These three things involve your audience.
Eye contact is also important.
22. Advanced Presenting
Techniques
• Creating Rapport
Using a few simple words and phrases which
do not mean very much will change the tone
of your presentation and make it less formal
and more friendly.
Examples:
You know, You see, As a matter of fact, Now,
Then, Well, Actually, OK
23. Advanced Presenting
Techniques
• Creating Rapport
Many of the best presentations sound more
like conversations. So during your talk keep
referring back to your audience as individuals.
Examples:
If you are anything like me ,…
And if I were to ask you ….
Now, I know what you’re thinking
But, you see
Let me ask you something
