Zen Traveler Posted September 4 Share Posted September 4 I have a fascination with the history in the 3 centuries surrounding 70 CE and how it relates to the Dead Sea Scrolls. I started a few months ago reading the Bible again using the 2 commentaries above and comparing. The "Harper Collins Study Bible" on the left is more scholarly oriented and I got for my birthday in June, while the "Jeremiah Study Bible" was given to me by a friend/student as a gift and has more of a sermon point of view. Ironically, both at the same time and not knowing about the other. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danny983 Posted September 25 Share Posted September 25 (edited) Great Gatsby. It's my favorite. I also like the movie a lot. I can watch it again and again. It was sometimes difficult to find a free site to watch movies. Luckily I found this article and read about Stremio. Now I always watch movies there.

RealMarkDeneen Posted September 26 Share Posted September 26 I'm quite attracted to many of the ideas Rupert Shelldrake advances - especially morphic resonance. His challenge to "conventional mechanistic science" is also quite brilliant. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CWelsh Posted October 21 Share Posted October 21 I'm a huge fan of Terry Pratchett's Discworld series and have been working my way through all 42 books. I'm currently reading "The Shepherd's Crown". It is technically a young adult book, but I don't mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ironically, both at the same time and not knowing about the other. The "Harper Collins Study Bible" and the "Jeremiah Study Bible" sound like they provide different angles on the material, with one offering a more scholarly approach and the other focusing on the sermon and practical aspects. This duality can be a great way to gain a comprehensive understanding of the historical and religious context of the time, as well as its relevance to modern interpretations. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm on the last 100 pages of a 900+ page book by Dr Robert Eisenman, "James the Brother of Jesus" which isn't religious but more of a historical look at 2nd Temple Judaism to right after 70 CE when the temple was destroyed. It's taken me the better part of half a year to read while I research the historicity of his sources. {Note: I started with my copy of Josephus but found it was easier to research on the internet. ;)} The Dead Sea Scrolls have been an interest of mine for quite sometime! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
