An amazing maze
An amazing maze is what i would hope my posts would be, self consciously designed as, but with a high probability not coming close.
Oh sweet pleasure when i can afford some more things, just got some more Genesis commentaries, and some background material, John H. Walton's Ancient Near Eastern Thought and the Old Testament: Introducing the Conceptual World of the Hebrew Bible, this is the guy who wrote the NIV Application commentary for Genesis, which is fast proving to be the most instantly enjoyable.
The advanced or technical kinds are for me not very enjoyable, but maybe if i get some of the introductory volumes down they will begin to show their worth.
I wish to dive into the whole Christian thing on many levels and areas, for time is short and therefore i feel the need to begin and continue in various places.
A refrain i shan't get tired of using is that all i do is wrong. Whenever someone reads my post and i fail to mention that, i will be taken for someone who thinks he knows when he doesn't. All i do and say must keep at the forefront the simple fact that i acknowledge my shortcomings, that i know what i do is erroneous. The correct way would to start simple and unified, and broaden the scope gradually. It is merely the sense of time being close to completion that i feel the need to cover the ground in this wrong manner.
Also to reiterate over and over for at least a little while more is how i plan on using SW from now on, and there is many ways to verbalize it.
It is all over for a normal way for me to use this wonderful site, all i shall do here is type whatever comes to me in posts, and i just decided tonight that i will use the unreacted, uncommented on older posts of mine to be a part of this series.
In this dense confusing maze, i seek always clarity of expression. It is a part of the whole curriculum, to express oneself. One might say that i could do this all in private, but doing it in public this way is preferable in the sense that there is an element of it being said with others partially in mind. If there can be good come of it all, or in any part it wouldn't have happened in private.
I do hope my own life and manner of being is improved both by the content of the study, the mode of it, and the posts here. If it continues the way it ought, i will exhibit noticeable changes, but now i'm comforted with the thought of -- you think pretty high of yourself don't you, thinking people will take that much notice of these ramblings. And indeed, it would facilitate more to my peace of mind to be unmindful towards what others think, or not think.
For i speak as one enclosed in a bubble, or an ivory tower, i want to be a spokesperson for those completely divorced from current times. Having chose a religion with rich ties to the ancient world, and knowing that for a fuller appreciation of it, to be acquainted with all the other things it came from, the social climate of ancient times, as well as all other types of related material which ultimately extends to everything i have and will have on my kindle, there is so much to tend to. That is the amazing maze.
