211 Blogging of the Bible: August 2006

Http:/ biblicalfoundations.blogspot.com" Justin Burgard. 211 Blogging of the Bible. A literary approach to the Bible for Dr. Sexton's 211 class. Thursday, August 31, 2006. A tradition of seconds? It is difficult to locate in Western literature and history a more charismatic figure than David."- Harold Bloom, The Book of J (pg 41). Interestingly, throughout the book of Genesis, the theme of the second-born being preferred to the first-born crops up again and again. Cain kills his younger brother; why?

English 211 Thoughts: December 2006
http://tarranteng211.blogspot.com/2006_12_01_archive.html
Wednesday, December 06, 2006. First of - all the presentations have been really interesting to listen to. But Marlow's on the book of Revelation (with a connection to The Invisible Man. Which I would have been interested in hearing since I've read the book) and the number 666 was very intriguing. However, would a Christian, after so many of the books of the NT talk about "turning the other cheek" and doing good to your neighbor, write an angry book placing the ruler as the antigonist? That's so strange t...

Thursday, September 28, 2006. Dinah and The Red Tent. Today in class we touched briefly (I would have liked a longer discussion) on Dinah and her supposed rape. Did she get raped or was the writer of this particular story conflicted? Dr Sexson talked about how it sounds like there are two different writers of this story - one writer favors Hamar and his love for Dinah whereas the other writer views him as violent, defiler of Jacob's beautiful daughter. Why am I so interested in this story? Yet Dr. Se...

211 Blogging of the Bible: October 2006

Http:/ biblicalfoundations.blogspot.com" Justin Burgard. 211 Blogging of the Bible. A literary approach to the Bible for Dr. Sexton's 211 class. Friday, October 27, 2006. Notes from 26.10.06. Bad things happen to good people. Hamlet vs Polonius ( To be or not to be? Vs To thine own self be true. Are we ever satisfied? Eat, drink, and be merry for tomorrow we die)*. Seems out of sync with other wisdom books. In Hebrew, 'creation' and 'grave' sound almost the same. Like an Oreo cookie: Prologue. What makes...

Http:/ biblicalfoundations.blogspot.com" Justin Burgard. 211 Blogging of the Bible. A literary approach to the Bible for Dr. Sexton's 211 class. Saturday, November 18, 2006. A bit o' biblical humour. A good friend sent this to me. It reminded me, of course, of the "Biblical Humor" time we had in class the other day. Although it mocks British government agencies, hopefully, you'll still find it rather humourous. Build another Ark and save 2 of every living thing along with a few good humans.". Getting the...

Monday, November 20, 2006. Innocently bathing on a roof. The king sees me, wants me I can tell. There's a spark from his eyes, a fire burns. Then a fire fulfilled and what can I do? My husband is away at war. And everyone knows women cannot get pregnant. Tricks and schemes follow. My self-appointed lover stalks my husband. Dies in battle, but I believe the king. There's something more involving the king. After my mourning, the king brought me to him. And I was made his wife. My womb never my own. How can...
