  • The More I Study the Bible the More I …

    Kevin and Jason have started what I think is an interesting conversation.  Kevin started out by discussing his liberalization (I don’t think Kevin is a genuine liberal in terms of theological liberalism) through more study of the Bible while Jason seems to be considerably more conservative. I can’t really answer this question because everyone knows…

  • Monday Morning Music

    I have no idea what some of these lyrics mean and perhaps it’s better that way.  And, you should sub in “cup of coffee” for cigarette in the lyrics.  Cigarettes are bad for you.  Getting the kids off on Monday morning is usually a bear after they’ve been off schedule all weekend.

  • My first miracle

    I didn’t notice this yesterday but there is a beautiful light emanating from my head in this picture.  Perhaps it is something like a halo or perhaps “the light of God.”  Or maybe it is like Moses’ face shining after his encounter with God.  I think the miraculous nature of this photo is beyond doubt. …

  • Letters to juliet – not too bad

    So I mave have had a preference for Robin Hood or Iron Man 2, but I sucked it up and went to see Letters to Juliet with my wife yesterday evening. Guys, if your wife is dying for you to take her to a romantic comedy type movie with a touch of drama, you could…

  • World's Worst Nazirite Hair Cut

    So, today I gave myself the world’s worst Nazirite hair cut: Yep, … I’m awesome.

  • New Dead Sea Scrolls Audio Course by Gary Rendsburg

    Or at least it is new to me, as I’ve only recently seen it. I keep pretty up to date on their catalogue.  The Teaching Company has released an audio course on the Dead Sea Scrolls by Gary Rendsburg.  It’s currently on sale for $35 dollars for audio download (click “special sale” in the top…

  • This video called "The Nephilim" has almost 2,000,000 views

    How fantastic! Right? …. Not!  I’m hoping they used some kind of artificial means for boosting their numbers.  If not this a very bad sign.  Unfortunately the hoaxsters are dominating the video arena right now.

  • The irony of the explanation for Noah's name

    I never really thought about it before this morning (though I’m sure someone else has), but there is a lot of irony in the reasoning given for Noah’s name in Genesis 5:29.  The verse reads: he named him Noah, saying, “Out of the ground the Lord has cursed this one shall bring us relief from…

  • Daniel McClellan – Psalms 1 and 2

    It appears as though Daniel McClellan is offering translations and notes on some of the Psalms.  He has started with Psalms 1 and 2 and I hope he continues this.  Check out the translations and notes here – Psalm 1 and Psalm 2. As an aside, it is always interesting to see how different translators…

  • Some people on youtube are so lame

    Recently I posted about how Biblical scholars need to be more active using video.  One thing that I proposed was making videos and posting them as video responses to some of the tripe that is out there on video sites like Youtube.  Come to find out people post videos claiming outrageous nonsense and then they…
