A Bíblia: uma Biblioteca de Livros para Todos - de Todas as Idades, Culturas e Gerações

Por que celebramos o Natal, o Dia de Reis, a Páscoa, a Ascensão, o Pentecostes? Por que razão a coroa de advento, prendas, estrelas, anjos, pastores são centrais no Natal? Por que comemos cabrito ou borrego na Páscoa? De onde nos vêm expressões como " daqui lavo as minhas mãos " ou " bode expiatório" ou "coisas do arco da velha"? Que está por detrás de tantas pinturas clássicas, de obras centrais da literatura mundial, de filmes como os Dez Mandamentos, o Príncipe do Egipto, The Climb? Que se entende por Verdade, Amor, Justiça, Gratidão, Compaixão, Arrependimento, Perdão...? Quem foi Eva, Adão, Abel, Caim, Sansão, David, Samuel, Rute, Débora, Daniel, Isaías ou Jeremias ?

Cain and Abel: A GIFT TO GOD with different heart attitudes

Both knew that God is Creator and Giver of all good things.
But Cain offered something from the land, because he was supposed to bow before God, in reverence.
Abel came to God with his heart full of gratitude and offered the fattest parts of his flock.
One offered out of obligation; the other, Abel, out of genuine love.
God noticed that and was pleased with Abel. Noticing jealousy in Cain, God warned him:
SIN LIES AT YOUR DOOR ( of your mind and heart ). If you do not control it, it will control you.
God let Cain know that he had the possibility to choose to do the right thing and not the wrong one.
When murdering his brother Abel, Cain was exercising his free will, the wrong way.
There are CHOICES to make, we are to decide for the right one.

Here are some outcomes from students from Escola Secundária Rainha Dona Leonor in Lisbon.

Escola Secundária de Caneças







Ninth Graders joined their abilities to roleplay and make drawings: the Conversation between Jesus and the Samaritan Woman. Water and spiritual/eternal life in the relationship with God ( living water ) and water as a central topic in the relationships among men (drinking water )

Escola Secundária Gil Vicente, Lisboa




The Talk about DRINKING and ETERNAL WATER between Jesus, a Jew and the Woman from Samaria vividly roleplayed and drawn by 11th graders from this Secondary School in Lisbon.

The topic MULTICULTURALISM, two different concepts of worshipping God in a one to one conversation, along with two different Meanings of Water: the one you can take from a well, you can see it, but its effect goes away ( drinking water ); the water that you cannnot see but still exists and quenches your spiritual thirst for ever ( living water ).

ATL OMEP Lumiar - Small children and 2 meanings of water













The Woman from Samaria comes to Jacob's well for drinking water, just to find out that inside her Jesus can create a spring of eternal water.
A Mulher de Samaria vem buscar água para beber ao poço/fonte de Jacob. Acabo por descobrir que Jesus tem para lhe dar uma fonte de água eterna que matará a sede espiritual.
