• New Testament Intersections 2: Covenant of Damascus

  
  Quadrilateral Thoughts — Authority: 495
  In an earlier post I went through the "Enochic" literature up to 4QMMT, a document that possibly stands at the very moment of the birth of the Essenes as a distinct sect.

  My Adventures in Ithaca — Authority: 422

• File Under Reasons I’m Jealous Of Londoners: Weekend Trips To Damascus

  
  The Expeditioner Travel Magazine — Authority: 428
  Nothing frustrates me more than when I read about Londoners discussing simple weekend trips to such places as southern Spain, Morocco, or as is the case here, Damascus.

• A childs prayer

  
  My Adventures in Ithaca — Authority: 422
  I dont mean to blog about Miriam two times in a row, but I just cant resist, not today. I think most parents would agree that the time their kids spend away from them is like a little black box. Even though it is refreshing to be away from them once in a while, after the fact I find myself almost rabid with ...

  My Adventures in Ithaca — Authority: 422
  Shortly after we found out wed be moving to Ithaca, I set about finding a preschool for Miriam to attend once we got there (here).

  aBlogtoRead.com — Authority: 516
  I recently discussed the Arlanch watch , another Swedish timepiece. That watch and this "Dragon" from Gustafsson & Sjögren (who call themselves GoS for short) couldnt be more opposite. One a distinct bore (Arlanch), while this one (GoS) a distinct work of art. Their real contribution to the work of horology is ...
