WIST Quotations

A quotation from The Bible

Our Father who art in heaven,
hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come.
Thy will be done
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread,
and forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those who trespass against us,
and lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.
For thine is the kingdom,
and the power, and the glory,
for ever and ever.
 
[Πάτερ ἡμῶν ὁ ἐν τοῖς οὐρανοῖς·
ἁγιασθήτω τὸ ὄνομά σου·
ἐλθέτω ἡ βασιλεία σου·
γενηθήτω τὸ θέλημά σου,
ὡς ἐν οὐρανῷ καὶ ἐπὶ γῆς·
τὸν ἄρτον ἡμῶν τὸν ἐπιούσιον δὸς ἡμῖν σήμερον·
καὶ ἄφες ἡμῖν τὰ ὀφειλήματα ἡμῶν,
ὡς καὶ ἡμεῖς ἀφήκαμεν τοῖς ὀφειλέταις ἡμῶν·
καὶ μὴ εἰσενέγκῃς ἡμᾶς εἰς πειρασμόν,
ἀλλὰ ῥῦσαι ἡμᾶς ἀπὸ τοῦ πονηροῦ.
Ὅτι σοῦ ἐστιν ἡ βασιλεία
καὶ ἡ δύναμις καὶ ἡ δόξα
εἰς τοὺς αἰῶνας. Ἀμήν.]

#Leather #covers for a #bible .

As I described in previous post, I was aiming for a #design that allowed the #book to be laid down flat without bending it's back.

My solution is to tuck these sort of "ears" (that are inevitable while using the zipper for these covers) on the back when covers are closed. When you open the zipper, you'll also let these "ears" loose and they will not affect the position of the book in any way.

This photo shows how the ends of the zipper (nicely embbedded into leather straps) are tucked away on the back side of the bookcovers.
This photo shows how these covers look while they are unzipped. These covers are made exactly by this very same book, the fit is absolutely perfect and the book may be laid down flat. The zipper ends will be just loosely on top and bottom, they're not under the book spine and will not bend it anyhow.
Photo shows the leather covers from front. There is a hand carved cross on the front cover. Cross is painted in gold and it looks very beautiful on these mahogany color leather covers.

These are #zipper #covers for a #bible .

Most tricky part is usually the spine part of these covers. I wanted to come up with the #style that left the book laying completely flat, not bending the spine of the #book . This is because #books will last longer and stay in better condition if they are kept and used properly.

First time for me to #craft this #style but I've learnt that they are quite #popular #choice in #usa . Well, they have made their way now to #estonia as well!

Maybe our churches are common ground for politics. A devout #Catholic is thrown out for preaching messages from the #Bible:

After he started his prayer, a priest approached him at the pulpit: “Come with me. Turn the sound off! Brother, you need to leave.”

And then, after the sounds of a very quick takedown came this: “Stay still. We’re not going to hurt you.”

“You already used violence against me in a church.”

“You’re trespassing.”
