In the time of Christ, Western Palestine was divided into three provinces, Judea, Samaria, and Galilee. Samaria occupied the centre of Palestine (John 4:4). It is called in the Talmud the land of the Cuthim, and is not regarded as a part of the Holy Land at all. It may be noticed that the distance between Samaria and Jerusalem, the respective capitals of the two kingdoms, is only 35 miles in a direct line.
Kindle Unlimited turns to pay-per-page for author royalties. By Roger Packer. Kindle Unlimited is switching to a pay-per-page system from the present payout of a flat payment per book once 10% of the book has been read. Amazon gives an extraordinary example of an author earning $20 per borrow under the new deal.
The biggest knock against Kindle Unlimited, though, is that its offerings overlap so much with Amazon Prime. Prime doesn't include audiobooks, but it does offer the Kindle Owner's Lending Library, which allows you to check out one book (out of a selection of 500,000) per month as part of your overall subscription.
