Sju av William Shakespears skuespill; Romeo og Julie, hamlet, En midt- sommernattsdrøm, Macbeth, Vintereventyret, Julius Cæsar og Stormen, er her utgirr som en samling tegneserier. Skuespillene gjenfortelles ved hjelp av tegneserieruter som viser skuespillernes fremførelse på scenen, med innlagtereplikker, og en tekst som er plassert under bildene og som gir en kort oppsumering av handlingsgangens hovedtrekk. Tegneserierutene og teksten er rammet inn. Utenfor rammen, eller scenen, får leseren en presentasjon av publikums reaksjon, slik det kan ha fortonet seg under fremførelsen i Globe-teateret under Shakespeares tid. Det er tegningene som bærer fremstillingen og presentasjonen er både livlig og fantasifull. Komediene har fått sterke farger, tragediene er i gråtoner, men begge sjangrene er fremstilt med sjarmog glimt i øyet. Den korte fremstillingen, sammen med mange aktører, gjør imidlertid at handlingsgangen til tider blir noe uoversiktlig. Cappelen, 1998,

The Passover is a well-known Jewish holiday and time of remembrance of Israel''s history of enslavement by the Egyptians. Each year at Passover, Jews worldwide celebrate God''s spectacular deliverance of the nation of Israel from slavery in Egypt. But did you know that Apostle Paul tells Christians to also keep and observe the yearly Feast of Passover; and calls Jesus Christ our Passover Lamb? This often forgotten instruction given by Apostle Paul to the church has resulted in the blessing of observing the Passover to be lost to many Christians today. In this book you will clearly see how the Lord planned for this time of remembrance to not only be observed by Jews; but also to be a unique time of remembrance for Christians also seated at the Passover table. This book explains not only why Paul instructs the church to observe Passover every year; but how you as a Christian can actually conduct an orderly, biblical, step by step Passover observance in your home with family and friends or with your church. The Passover: Order of Service for Christians, completes a powerful three part series on Passover; helping Christians to recapture for themselves the blessing of Passover.
