Finals rant
11 06 2009
After 7 commentaries, 5 books and 4 articles about Isaiah 9:1-7 my brain is about to explode! The worst part about it is that no one really knows what’s going on in this text. I didn’t read two things that agreed with each other and now I am supposed to write a paper about what the text means. Here is a glimpse into what will eventually (hopefully) be a 15 page paper: After hundreds of years of research and countless hours of Hebrew study no one knows what the heck is going on. It probably means something about Jesus, maybe.
Your last sentence reminded me of this Eddie Izzard bit about the Church of England.
LOL! The good news is this will soon be ready to hand in and you will forever cherish Isaiah 9:1-7… or not.
