Professor of Old Testament and Hebrew at LCU. Interested in Old Testament, Hebrew, Comparative Semitics, and Interpretation.
This year, I intended to spend 2 hours a day writing. That was up-ended when I was asked to teach an Aramaic course with little prep time. Now I spend those 2 hours preparing for reading Daniel with students. It has been a wonderful, life-giving experience to be back in Aramaic.

Does anybody have any recommendation for someone who has dyslexia to learn biblical Hebrew?

On to a new book. I have enjoyed my time off from school getting around to some important books. I had hoped to read this for course prep last semester, but ran out of time.

During "Joy to the World" this morning, I accidentally sang, "And makes. the nations grove" instead of "prove." I think I'm keeping it.

Why is it that after I post exam grades students want to email me all of a sudden?

My first post on Blue Sky! Until the New Year, I will probably not post too much. I limit my social media in order to focus on other things. But, since so many academics have switched here, I hope to interact more here than on other platforms.
