We’re back and we get more Abram goodness. Genesis 14 opens with a war (always a page turner). Amraphel, King of Shinar; Arioch, King of Ellasar; Chedolaomer, King of Elam; and TIDAL KING OF NATIONS!! (Sorry about the capslock issue there, I think a name like that just deserves them). Anyway, it’s all a bit [...]

The Bible – Short and Important Stories
9 February 2010, 9:32 pm
11:7 Go to, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand one another’s speech. For such a long book, I am often surprised to see that the things I learned as a child – and I thought these were the really important stories – are often really really short. [...]

The Bible – What Adam Did Next

But unto Cain and to his offering he had not respect. And Cain was very wroth, and his countenance fell. In the first part, we saw how God placed temptation in the way of Adam and Eve, and then punished them when they fell for it. I think that this was the first “dick move” [...]

As anyone who has read the Bible knows, lots of it is just filler; lists of people, lists of begettings and shopping [...]

16 January 2010, 12:05 am
It appears that it’s somewhat traditional to start a new year by reading the Bible. At least it is according to Reading and Critically Reviewing the Bible in 365 Days. Now, I appreciate that I am somewhat behind (it being 15 January and all), but that will not stop me! I plan to read through [...]
