\"Image<\/a>I hope you all (both of my readers \ud83d\ude42 are enjoying your Thanksgiving Day celebrations and have much to be thankful for. I’m thankful I finished my exegetical paper for my OTHT class and that I was able to get to the seminary in time yesterday. I had to get it there by 5:00 pm and I was still writing it in the morning. But I prayed a lot and the Lord kept me going and I finished it with time to spare for traffic. I took my daughters with me since they were off from school, they were lured into going with the promise of a Chick-fil-a milkshake<\/a> but we didn’t eat lunch until 2:30! They were starving!We went to the bookstore<\/a> while we were there and I was dismayed to learn that they have rearranged the bookstore by author and not subject. Now, just think about that for a minute, how in the world do you buy a commentary by author? Who knows the name of the author of a commentary? I go to the bookstore and scan the section to see what type of commentaries they have, now that’s impossible. One of the side benefits though is that I’m not going to be doing too much impulse buying anymore. Or purchasing more than one book on a particular subject.After we left the seminary, I had to drive to the Princeton Theological Seminary Library <\/a>(they let students from other seminaries take out up to five books and they have a huge selection of commentaries) to turn in my commentaries for Genesis and to pick up commentaries for Luke for my Gospels exegetical paper. Yes, that’s right, now that I’ve finished one paper I have to write another by next Thursday and it is actually going to be harder than the one I just finished. I am not looking forward to it. I will be working on it today and the rest of the weekend. My daughters are going to stay with my parents for a couple days, so I should be able to get a lot done (I hope, but I’m having a very hard time concentrating and writing).I will be posting the papers after my finals. I didn’t hate my paper for OTHT so it will make it easier to post, though it has Hebrew in it so you will have to download a font (I’ll post a link for it when I post the paper) to read the Hebrew.And for your viewing pleasure, a blast from the past. I’m old enough to actually remember this episode:<\/embed>(via<\/a>)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
