I had a fun time recording a podcast interview about the Psalms with a pastor named Johnny Ova a few weeks back. You can listen to it here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=slUI...

Prairie College is hiring for a few different roles in administration, including a Women's Director of Student Development and an Admissions Director. I would be happy to discuss how either of these could be a dual faculty role as well (esp. in Biblical Studies/Theology). Link below.

My review of Jennifer Brown Jones' book "Translation and Style in the Old Greek Psalter: What Pleases Israel's God" has been published by RBL. My verdict: An important contribution to the study of literary features in LXX texts and moves the conversation forward.

I am sad to hear of the passing of Old Testament scholar Gordon Wenham. While I never had the honor of meeting him, he served as a silent "mentor" as a major influence in my research. I remember coming across his Psalms as Torah during the writing of my Master's thesis on ethics in the Psalter. 1/2

And in case you didn't know, a relative of Bilbo's appears in biblical literature: Penta Took.
I am grateful for audiobooks on topics I care about for my long-ish commute, but it is clear that most audiobook narrators have no theological background. The church father "Oregon" featured significantly in today's chapter. I knew my love for the Northwest and theology went hand-in-hand.

I am looking forward to heading to #sblaar24 tomorrow. I will be presenting two papers,: one on Charlotte Mason, the educationalist, who is the topic of a project for Baker; and one on the metaphorical use of meals in Proverbs 1–9, related to a book on wisdom under contract with IVP Academic.
