small progress

[hawkwing_lb]

History of theology: studied.
Prophecy in Israel: studied.
Greek grammar and vocabulary: slightly studied.

My eyes are hot and blurry and my brain feels fuzzy. I think I might need to stop now.

Tomorrow we move on to Greek and Roman history, Apocalypticism in 2nd Temple Judaism, and history of the Ancient Near East.

That definitely calls for chocolate and the beverage of your choice. Brava!

(And I know who to ask if I ever have a question about theology....)

No, please no. Do not ask me about theology. It makes no sense.

(I mean, I can come up with a vaguely coherent-sounding answer to an exam question. But explicate the damn stuff satisfactorily? Never.)

Heh. I sometimes think the stuff we're made to learn is intended more to give us the tools to tackle further questions on the subject than to provide answers to those questions.

Heh. The theology stuff is last year's work, and I was more happy than not to get away from it into purer history.
