Job, Psalms-
[[MORE]]
So Job’s always seem complicated and kinda meaningless to me and guess what? It still does! I mean, I think I kinda see what it’ trying for a little more, but at the same time, just… why.
This guy has literally done nothing wrong except maybe being a bit overzealous (he makes forgiveness offerings for his kids after they’re adults in case they have...

so seeing how everyone came onto the team is kinda really great?
especially the pair-ups. I did not think that Toby would’ve been the one to bring CJ on, or that Josh was there before Sam… Or that Bartlet himself was the last person to become a part of the team, really.

So like, I still constantly want to apologize for a couple of years ago? But at the same time, I’m glad things played out like they did. I was an immature fool, and while not immature, I think you kinda might’ve been in love with love at the time and in short neither of us were ready for that sort of thing.
Good news? I know now that I can’t ever handle that again, but...

okay Sansa darling ilu
but you are such a naive child and it breaks my heart.
SHE THINKS THAT LORD BERIC CAN’T BE A HERO OF THE TALES. BECAUSE HE IS TOO OLD. AT 22.

okay i honestly have nothing to add about Chronicles because well, mostly it’s just retelling Kings and what little is new could’ve just been in those in the first place.

9:15: Here is the account of the forced labor King Solomon conscripted to build the Lord’s temple…
Pardon me, forced labor? Which everywhere else in the Bible so far doubles as meaning foreign? Why would you make a place of dedication to God using people who might not even believe in them, and who don’t even want to be doing the work you put them to?...

First, from the show, I’d thought Catelyn’s reservedness was trying to live up to the Stark name and overcompensating from how she was growing up (? not like we’re told much of how she was but that’s the vibe I got), and here we’re actually told...

1 and 2 Samuel

1:5: But to Hannah [Elkanah] gave a double portion because he loved her, and the Lord had closed her womb.
Why? Why is her womb closed? Elkanah has another wife, but we’re not told if he’s ignoring his husbandly duties, and Peninnah is always spiting and taunting Hannah. We know nothing about these three other than that Elkanah is married to both of them,...

First, Ehud is just a total badass and I’m glad that he’s a leftie because we need more cool lefties. Manages to sneak a blade into the Moabite king’s presence because it’s hidden on the opposite side from where the guards check, awesome one-liner before he slays the king- “I have a message from God for you”- escapes over the roof,...

You know I really can’t get over how part of the laws are that prostitution is bad and if you’re involved in it you should Feel Bad, but the person that saves the Israelite spies at Jericho is Rahab and all we really know about her is (1) she has a family, (2) she wanted to follow God/at least feared them, (3) her house was part of the wall of the city, and (4) she...

So chapter 5 deals with when a husband accuses his wife of adultery. And-
29-31: “This, then, is the law of jealousy when a woman goes astray and makes herself impure while married to her husband, or when feelings of jealousy come over a man because he suspects his wife. The priest is to make her stand before the Lord and is to apply this entire law to her. The husband...

Leviticus-

Most of this has a lot about offering stuff that goes roundabout with itself so I don’t have a lot of comments because well. It’s a little confusing for me and more than a little redundant.
But I do like that there’s a difference between a sin offering and a guilt offering, and that the sin offering is only to be once you realize that you did something...

Lianna’s steps were hesitant as she approached her sponsor’s quarters. She hadn’t had many meetings with Mistress Sani beyond lessons, and those didn’t have time for chatting (and she’d rather talk with Asheron, or Chiaki, or Morris, or anyone else with them that day), and in her healing sessions...

Ooooohhhh boy this is in some ways even more of a mess than Genesis but for laying down the first section of laws to deal with it’s also not that bad.

“Mistress SaaaaAAAaannNIIIiii!”
The Elf’s hand jolted, sending a line of ink across the letter she’d been writing. She grimaced and started trying to blot the stray mark, cursing all Undines who couldn’t approach quietly, or with a stable voice instead of sing-song.
She scowled up at the lad standing in her chamber doorway. “What do you want,...

so someone i’m friends with made a status about being suspicious of the “Cosplay =/= Consent” movement getting attention right after “Fake Geek Girls” fallout started dying down.

so with everything going on, now seems like a good time to examine my beliefs and how they firm up and what i should be looking for when i do get settled enough to look for a church to start going to.

okay so timeline continuity errors REALLY annoy me.
Especially when they keep coming up.
In the first 50 or so pages of Mastiff, Beka mentions working with Achoo for the last three years at least twice, but I want to say it was three or four times total. It’s even on the book jacket- “Three years have passed since Beka Cooper almost died in the sewers of Port Caynn…”

wait did Beast just cross himself?
He hasn’t done that before has he?
(I’m actually asking, because I haven’t noticed it before (why wouldn’t I if he had), but it would be kinda odd if he started doing something like that now wouldn’t it? And if this is the first time, why is he doing it?)
